    Fey was used sometimes back in the day, but like it was fucken sparse even then. Honestly I legit wonder if he was going for something specific with a farefolk comparison cause that seems weirdly more likely.

      Exactly. I’ve always thought it was a pretty neutral adjective for a nonbinary person. Shit, if someone called me “fey” I’d be pleased as punch.

      Edit: as a lifelong nerd who’s only ever heard it to mean “elflike”
