T-Rex: We've spent generations trying to figure out how to fly. And now we know how to do it! Kinda!
T-Rex: We can fly if we've got an airplane wrapped around us, anyway!
T-Rex: Meanwhile, FAIRIES have been able to fly since forever and they do so under their own power. Have they shared any heavier-than-air flight skills with us? NO THEY HAVE NOT.
Dromiceiomimus: But - aren't fairies magic?
T-Rex: That's even worse! We've got nuclear waste that has to be managed for the next thousand years. SOME MAGIC SURE WOULD BE HANDY FOR THAT, HUH?? WOW. WOW IT SURE WOULD.
Utahraptor: Maybe it's like a fairy Prime Directive thing!
T-Rex: That - makes sense, actually!
T-Rex: Giving us magic overnight would destroy us! IN FACT, maybe that's why fairies themselves are so rare: when they invented magic, they nearly destroyed themselves with the sudden, unpredictable and corrupting power!
Utahraptor: The few survivors dare only use a handful of protective spells: immortality and flight!
T-Rex: Yes! And the magical fallout means they can't ever go home again!! I always thought I'd never say this, but... "I really want to read a novel set during the Fairy Magic Civil War".
T-Rex: Wow. Life surprises you sometimes, am I right?
