Rachel | 531 comments This one is amusing. Flipping a classic fantasy/faerie trope on its head - not sure there's a ton of deeper meaning but the gender role reversal is fun

Andrea | 3591 comments So far my favorite. It was short, sweet, and funny. Agreed it wasn't necessarily deep but it was definitely fun.

This was certainly one of the chuckle-worthy story, on its own and for turning the traditional role of human infatuation with fae & selkie roles on their heads.

Caitlin (cait_coy) Also really enjoyed the role reversal. Not my favorite but for the amusement and enjoyment, it's pretty high on my list for the short stories.
