von Strangle + Abdul Family Trees (via GenoPro); click to enlarge

- Jorgen and Binky are a gyne-drone pair; Binky is the gyne. - Jorgen had a VERY poor relationship with his dad, who refused to accept his son is a drone. Jorgen came out about his drone status during his father's eulogy and he's been out ever since. - Jorgen does not have a close relationship with his mom, whom he rarely sees. He's much closer to his nana, who taught him most of what he knows about being Keeper of Da Rules. - Yvainna is the Fairy Elder (Her title namedropped in "Timmy's Secret Wish"). The von Strangle family take their names from her and have devoted their lives to protecting her, Fairy World, and Da Rules. In "Minion," Adelinda was seen as her personal attendant. - Jorgen's cousin Leonard came up in "Cosmo Rules," as did Jorgen's distant cousin relationship with Cosmo. - Petalia von Strangle is one of Myron's sisters. She had her son (Jasper) while not in close contact with her family, but died not long after. Nana Boom-Boom traced her family line and found Cosmo, only telling Jorgen this in "Cosmo Rules." - Jorgen's niece (Ginny) was namedropped in "Fairly Odd Pet." She predates the ban on fairy babies. - Cattahan is the Blue Robe on the Fairy Council during Timmy's time. H.P. was butler for his family in his younger years. Cattahan's parents cut him off for his radical politics (Namely that Fairies shouldn't mate unprotected or reproduce without asking their counterparts if they consent, as they're magically forced to mirror them). - H.P. refers to Binky as Abdul Jr. and his father as Abdul. He and Abdul Sr. were in high school together, tensions high since they're both gynes. - Binky's older brother (Draven) is based on a character who looks similar to him (and plays a similar role in conversation with Jorgen) in "Abra-catastrophe." - Lotus died during the war with the Anti-Fairies. - Robyn is the name my parents gave the tooth fairy when I was young, so I gave it to FOP's Tooth Fairy too. - Jorgen and Binky took Westley from his parents and raised him together (The same fate that would have befallen Poof at the end of "Fairly Odd Baby" if Cosmo and Wanda hadn't tricked Jorgen with a doll). They took in Phoenix around the same time (See also, "Repeat") - Jorgen's family are pureblood fairies, so you see a lot of very long-lived individuals on the von Strangle side of his family. They tend to mate late in life (playing into old traditions). - Jorgen's twins are under pressure to decide which of them will take the role of Keeper of Da Rules and which will follow their mother's footsteps as Head Tooth Fairy. They're inseparable and can't bear to live separate lives, so their minds change all the time. - Italy and Fanny made their first on-screen appearance at a high school dance in "Approval," where Foop remarked that Fang's mom would be disappointed she hung the posters crooked.

Bio: Eldest child of Adelinda von Strangle and the politician Frost Fallingwater, Jorgen was always destined to become Keeper of Da Rules. Of all current fae heads of state (H.P., Anti-Cosmo, Anti-Wanda, Anti-Sanderson, and arguably Dame Artemis), Jorgen is the only one who was raised since birth to inherit his position, and is the only one who was directly trained by someone who held that position before him. He was well prepared to take over, but is full of more courage than wisdom, and a sense of duty over guilt.

He’s devoted to his work and rarely faces moral dilemmas that upset him, but when he does, he completely withdraws into himself, crushed beneath his regrets. His neuroticism is concerning, but he does try to be a good leader for the Fairies.

Jorgen spent much of his youth in stuffy clothes and fancy dinner parties, rubbing shoulders with businessmen and politicians alike. He didn’t spend much time with his extremely busy mother or quiet father in his youth (though he loved them dearly) and instead connected with his grandmother, Nana Boom-Boom, who both understood his personality and could be there for him regularly.

As a child, Jorgen was a massive rule-follower and worked religiously to exceed all his parents’ expectations. He couldn’t be satisfied with simply doing what he was asked, because only when he went above and beyond did they seem to notice him. To this day he pushes himself too hard and berates himself tremendously for even small mistakes.

Adelinda retired from being Keeper of Da Rules when Jorgen was about 300,000 (mentally 26) and passed her rank to him shortly before the War of the Angels broke out. Jorgen lost his father and several friends during that same war and still blames himself for leading an attack force instead of staying to defend the Pink Castle. He holds a bitter grudge against Anti-Fairies for burning it down... and against H.P. for tipping the Anti-Fairies off about its lack of defenses.

Adelinda now spends her days as the Fairy Elder’s personal attendant (and was seen performing these duties in the 130 Prompt “Minion”). When Jorgen retires, he will follow in her footsteps by caring for his queen for the rest of his life. He is married to the Tooth Fairy and extremely devoted to her, though has some anxieties about the future of the von Strangle and Dentin bloodlines... especially since drones like him are infertile more often than they aren’t.

Bio: Binky is a common fairy with an eastern elf father, and stems from a long line of clothing designers. He certainly doesn’t come from a high-class family, but he’s been well known in Fairy World for most of his life. A child actor, he participated in numerous theater performances throughout his youth and quickly became known for his good memory, expressive body language, and ability to project his voice. Also his abilities to fake cry and fake intense pain (He’s practiced those a lot).

Binky has been in and out of the media all his life and still acts in the occasional play or movie to this day (See also, “Timmy TV”). He has a few Zappy awards to his name, though prefers to live in a modest home in Faeheim instead of the drama-heavy Fairywood.

When he wasn’t acting, Binky grew up in Faeheim not far from Jorgen. Because they both came from families that spoke Mangermese at home, they ended up bonding even though Jorgen was much older (9 years mentally). Jorgen was a rowdy child who loved hiking and sparring with the other kids in the neighborhood, and before long Binky was the only one who dared to call him friend.

While unusual for two fairies of such different ages to hang out, Jorgen allowed his young fan to tag along with him everywhere (He’d often carry Binky on hikes and buy him treats at the store). This progressed to Binky supporting Jorgen during races and sparring matches and spotting him when he worked out. When Binky came into his full pheromones, their bond grew closer as the young gyne learned of his hero’s drone state for the first time.

Nowadays Jorgen spends a lot of time around the Fairy Council and the Fairy Elder, and their pheromones far overpower Binky’s. Nonetheless, he still considers Binky his oldest and dearest friend (See also, “Timmy the Barbarian”). Jorgen plays rough, but he’s more vulnerable around Binky than he is with anyone else. Binky recognizes this and understands that even though Jorgen has aggressive ways of showing affection, he does value their friendship immensely.

Binky once worked as a fairy godfather - his work partners Minty and Chrysalis appeared in "Swim" - but he dropped out to take a work-from-home job while raising his and Jorgen’s ward, Westley Periwinkle. He’s happy to serve the Keeper of Da Rules (and by extension the entirety of Fairy World) however he can. If that’s by being Jorgen’s emotional support blanket / chew toy, then that’s his lot in life (and he accepts it).
