I have decided that for the complete and utter ridiculousness of it I am going to write a fairy tale. Now, for some odd reason many “Fairy Tales” do not actually have fairies in them. In fact most of them don’t. I do not think I have put a fairy tale with even the slightest shred of a fairy in it on here yet so I think I shall make up for this by writing a Fairy Tale that has at least one fairy in it.

Now I do happen to be sick right now but hopefully that won’t have a negative effect on this story. Indeed crazed ramblings of a fevered mind might actually add to a fantasy fairy tale about utterly imaginary and nonexistent diminutive beings…

Begin here this Fairy Tale does
Once upon a time, a long time ago there lived in a pleasant valley by a little brook which sparkled flowed pleasantly along, though where to nobody really knew or cared, a family of fairies. Or perhaps I should say more of a clan of fairies because there must have been at least three hundred of them when the story started, though perhaps by the time this story ends there may be about five hundred since fairies multiply more rapidly than rabbits and it may take me quite some time to get to the end of this story.

One pleasant sunshiny day when the trees were twittering to the birds and an old Robin was busy consuming an early worm, who, if it was still capable of wishing, would have wished that it had slept in that day, when little Teaslel decided to go on an adventure. It has been solemnly decided in the council of the Five Elder Fairies that Teaslel will be the main character in the book as she is pretty much the only one of the fairy clan that does not mind being made ridiculous, or at least is incapable of objecting to it…

As has been mentioned before there was a little brook in the valley and of course if you want adventure sometimes the water can supply it so Teaslel made up her mind to go explore near some mushrooms. However, they were not mushrooms!!!(insert suspenseful scary music here) they were Evil Toadstools of DOOM. This was moderately evident by the fact that they were colored a mixture of bright neon shades of green, purple, and orange with a bit of soggy black thrown in for bad measure. Also the scent emitted from them was most unpleasant to the nasal passages.

Teaslel however was rather immune to scents unpleasant to the nasal passages as she had eight very active brothers, who all had pets, but after flitting around the Evil Toadstools of DOOM which she thought were mushrooms for a while she began to feel a strange feeling sprouting up inside her. She had felt it before, oh many times indeed, and all eight of her brothers knew it even better. It was the sort of feeling that most people have before wending their way to a refrigerator…

Now although fairies are very small, their appetites are great for it takes a great deal of energy to fleetly frolic from flower to flower, or mushroom for that matter. Therefore when Teaslel felt hungry she decided to eat something and as the most convenient thing to eat seemed to be the mushrooms she was flying around, she ate a piece of the Evil Toadstools of DOOM.

After a little bit of munching Teaslel suddenly decided that she wanted to be home so she went there, crawled into bed, and was violently ill for three weeks while the pleasant sun softly caressed the bright green meadows.

However she did recover and eventually got married and lived happily ever after! THE END

MORAL: It is usually wise to avoid Evil Toadstools of DOOM and some times abstemiousness between meals can greatly improve your health.
