  • Is the fairy queen a war criminal? Surprisingly, kind of., Archived version by iusedtobeafangirl ("TL;DR; The fairy queen from the Tinker Bell franchise has been an intense source of debate for years, which is in part because she’s technically a war criminal. I promise this makes a little more sense in context, but I don't even know how to begin explaining it. I was going to start by summarizing the original Disney Fairies trilogy, but even that is kind of difficult because these books are just so goddamn weird, war crimes notwithstanding. I guess it’s best to just start at the beginning.") (2020)
