King Of The Fairies - Tumblr Posts
Writing Prompt
They lived in a cottage near the forest and on that very day, they were tending to their garden when a man appeared out of the thicket. He was of tall and elegant stature. With a poise unlike any normal person. They were shocked and asked “Who are you?” He asked rhetorically “Who am I?” then chuckled “Why, I am the King of the Fae!” Then looked back at them with a bemused smirk “Now might I ask who might you be, young one?”
The Human took a slight step back almost unnoticeable, though it was clearly noticed by said fae. “I’m afraid I can’t tell you that.” They replied keeping a neutral face but their was no denying the nervousness in their eyes as they awaited his response. “Ah, now why might that be?” The fae inquired. “I can’t tell you my name for then you would take it.” They retorted.
“Ahaha, very good! You know I quite like you~” The Fae king cooed “Then what should I call you by, then?” They pondered it for a while “I’m not sure.” The fae looked over at them and responded “Hmm, well how does Bellflower sound.” The humans gaze questioned the fae but softened as they thought it over. “Alright Bellflower would be fine.”

They went back to watering their flowers when…
“I’ve noticed for quite some time now, how well you’ve been taking care of your garden and I wanted to commend you for it! Not many people do that you must know.” They turned back to look at him surprised but then a light smile came to their face “Oh, well I appreciate the complement.” The fae now smiled from ear to ear, then crouched down beside them and began “You know these flowers all have meaning, correct.” they then glanced over at him “Well, yes but I never can remember them all. Just only a few.”
They spent the afternoon talking as he told them of each flowers meaning and a few stories to go along with it. After the day was done he bid them farewell and thanked them for the wonderful day and if he could come again the next day. They then tell him he may, he then takes a bow and says “Till tomorrow then, pleasant dreams and I wish you a good night!” then disappears. They certainly have an interesting day ahead of them.

Here is Part 1 and Part 2 of the King of the Fae prompts
“Hello, my dear Bellflower!” The Fae inquired over their shoulder. “Oh, you startled me. Well, Hello again. Hmm!” they pause. “What is the matter, Bellflower?” he questioned seeing their stop. “I forgot to ask you the other day what should I call you by.” The fae looked at them wide eyed for a second then reverted back, though with a hint of what seemed to be shyness? “Well, Y-you may call me after a flower. Since I call you by the name of a flower, then it would seem fitting that you’d be doing the same.” They pondered it over “Astilbe, *hmm* I like it! Astilbe it is then!”
“So what might we be doing today!” he asked cheerfully. “Oh, I’m planting these irises, if you'd like to help.” they replied gesturing one hand to the pots of flowers beside them.
“Hmhmm!” he lightly chuckled. “What is it?” they asked “Nothing I just remembered a joke, d-do you wish to hear it?” he looked up hopefully. “Oh, alright.” They listened in as they continued tending to their garden. The Fae beamed up “Well one day an iris and a bellflower ran into each other and the iris said ‘Why do you look so blue?’ to which bellflower replied ‘Nothing, I am just simply blue, but what about you?’ then the iris answered ‘Oh it is just something in my Iris.” they chuckled lightly at his excitement, for it was a fair attempt at a joke even if it wasn’t the best. “You know I never get anyone to listen to my jokes.” they turned to look at him and respond “Really? Why is that?” he then looks down not meeting their eyes “It usually isn’t the time or the occasion.” “Well I like it! It was a cute joke.” they answered. “Truly!?!” he asked surprised with delight. “Yes, of course!” The Fae was overjoyed with this “Then I have many I’d be happy to tell you, Bellflower!” They chuckled at his cute but amusing jokes.
