Follow Friday (5)


Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Rachel at www.parajunkee.com and Alison at www.alisoncanread.com.

In books like the Sookie Stackhouse (True Blood) series, the paranormal creature in question "comes out of the closet" and makes itself known to the world.  Which mythical creature do you wish would come out of the closet, for real?

Faeries.  Without a doubt.  Just as they're portrayed in the 4th season of True Blood, human/vampire relations would probably be pretty bad.  Hell, I wouldn't want to be living among a super strong, super fast kind of creature that preys upon people like me.  The same goes for werewolves (except that most of them don't eat humans).  Fallen angels... well, they fell for a reason.  Don't think many of them are all that pure.  Faeries, in contrast, are often portrayed as conniving creatures, right?  But they're not terribly strong.  I suppose what I'm really trying to say is that I believe in my intelligence but know that my body would never match up against those other creatures.  And if these creatures came out of the closet... slash existed... I don't think humans would fare very well ;p so best be prepared.

Hopping through. I'd pass on fallen angels too. For some reason, I have an easier time believing in vampires and fairies than fallen angels. And I go to church ever week too! :-)

I think you're right. Humans wouldn't stand much of a chance.

Fairies would be a great choice! I didn't think of them when coming up with my answer. Funny since I love them!
