Your Beyond the Screen au is so interesting so far. Love how you are looking at both sides of the situation between the characters and their internal thoughts. Will the human and Elder Faery become friends in the future? Can’t wait to see more about it.
Thank you!
At first, Elder Faerie and the person are both having mini existential crises but then have to accept that yep- Elder Faerie is not only alive but appeared in our human world. The first week or so they have to slowly build trust. For the person, they basically have a sentient, sapient, thinking, talking being now living in their house except their new roommate is really tiny and it takes very little cost to buy the food needed for him.
After a little bit (not too long though), they do become friends. They eventually settle into a routine after some trial and error while the poor person has to figure out how she is supposed to take care of a sentient cookie at the same time she is managing a job and paying rent.
However, the routine only lasts so long as another cookie eventually appears . . .
