ok basic faerie rules >:)
1. don't eat or drink their food without permission or you'll be indebted to them
2. don't say thank u bc they take offense to that they prefer smth like "i appreciate your (adjective? here)
3. I'm sorry is a Weird One. don't say that say like "my apologies" or "pardon me" bc they take things very literally
4. a faerie is bound to their word. if they promise to get u a cookie they have to get u that fucking cookie no matter what. even if it kills them
5. they'll find loopholes to weasel out of deals, which goes with the BE Careful About What U Say
6. they actually don't like the term faerie, they prefer Good Folk/Good Neighbors/ Lord's and Ladies (I ignore this one bc how are u gonna describe a faerie without saying the word faerie)

Ah, now I remember better! I love absolutely all of these, though it does bring a few questions to mind. Mostly on the 'why' side of things. Like, why do they have such rules? Is it a societal thing? An instinctive thing? Did a fae one time just decide to make a bunch of rules, and then fae history kinda accepted it?
The third one is honestly one I live by, LOL. I never saw 'Im sorry' as an apology; just a statement of how one is feeling guilt. I still do accept it as an apology sometimes, though, since nowadays people do mean it as an apology. Maybe fae are autistic? I mean, I certainly take things literally!
Also, thank you for the link!! I'll make sure to add it to my research list.
