She poured him a small brandy and pressed it into his shaking hand, as he moaned in agony and shock. “Really, boy. You’re taking this awfully seriously.”

Charles shuddered one last time, whispered “They’re everywhere,” and then lost consciousness. In the garden, Katydid and Lolly ducked under a dandelion, giggling.

I just meant that the fairies were acting like dicks.
