[Taryn/Shona] mortal world loving fairy

[Manga Maniac Cafe] Can you share a typical day in your life?

[Taryn/Shona] Pre or post Annwyn? Before going to Annwyn my day was normal, I was like any other twenty something. I went to work, much to my parents horror, made friends but never let them too close in case they worked out that I didn’t really belong in the mortal world. It’s a bit hard to have people round when you don’t actually have a house and your just kind of lodging in someone else’s. My parents are Brownies, which is basically fairy house cleaners, for a changeling.
