[Heliotrope] The Phantom Ranger
Far out west in the edges of civilization in the Western United States, the half breed descendant of a lord of the Outer Fae and a human from Terra. Very often such half breeds have magic talents that are well outside that of the nobility or the occasional mage who is pure Terran. In this case, their only talent was toughness and long live. Inspired by heroic tales of times passed, this man dressed in a mask and rode the West fighting evil.
He also got the crap kicked out of him a lot.
A lot.
But he learned and now does good in subtle ways. Sometimes he still rides a horse. Sometimes an SUV with bullet proof glass. The Phantom Ranger keeps a low profile, but he still does good when needed and called.
If you have a problem under the starry skies of the west, maybe he might help you.
Or you might the crap kicked out of you.
That too.

[Script] Peter Pan vs Frankenstein vs Superman - Page 3
Wide shot - Camera panning back and outward centered on the monstrous fist that pulls Peter through like Shlurping a straw. An annoyed Twinkerbell zwatting in and out trying to sting him and is ignored.
Scene: Doctor Frankenstein looks at Peter and scowls. A hulking Frankenstine holds Peter by the neck. Twinkerbells frits around and is ignored.
Scene: Panning shot showing a laboratory with a mix of high tech and steam punk style equipment. There is a large slab like table in the room so that there is no doubt as to where Frankenstein came from.
Scene: Peter smiles mischeviously and shrugs.
Dr Frankenstein scowls more and snaps his fingers.
Scene: Frankenstein squeezes tighter.
Peter begins to turn purple.
Twinkerbell screams in horror.
Scene: Denny finally finishes getting dressed and comes downstairs, looking concerned as she hears the scream from downstairs.

Things are slowly moving forward
TC has a room to use as his office but it is filled with boxes and cluster and clutter. It needs to be cleansed and organized and the right tools for the right job set up slowly and carefully.
Watch this space.
More to come.

[Heliotrope] The Moulin Rouge
The accords of the royal families of Outer Fairy forbid interaction with Terra without direct consent from the High King. Goblins of course, routinely ignore this rule and there are many fae from Middle or Inner fairy who do as they please. But there are exceptions. The primary method that they get away with this is by prior exceptions. The Red Windmill had existed for hundreds of years before the mortal equivalent made itself manifest, a way station in the middle of France for those who knew how to find it.
As mortal technology and population increased, it became harder and harder for people to glamour a place of such size to keep it hidden. So the royal house behind it decided to make it a theater. There was great conflict within the house as to whether they should do so, since House Silvestrebel tends to be socially conservative compared to some of the other houses; even if the fashionable wing therein pushes the boundaries as far as they can. Visiting a House Silvestrebel ball is either the dullest affair imaginable or more fun than a barrel of howler monkeys.
The kind that dance.
Over the years, the prestige of the place has grown to the point that the current extremely long "Fairy" story line attracts VIPS from all over Outer Fairy who like to slum with Terrans. Indeed, at any given point, half the audience might not be Terran human at all. It is filled with beings from across creation and is one of Terra's most popular stops. Even those who use humans as a food source see the artistry of the place (if they are capable of recognizing the concept of art)
The very nature of the show is enough to repel the smaller minded nature of Terrans, especially the more mundane sort. Call them what you will, every country has them, but the nexus has helped them be vastly reduced in Paris as well as France. This is also why so many in America hate France, given the large number that were expelled from Europe in exile. This fact is not lost on the inhabitants of Fairy. While magic is a tremendous advantage, no one, not even Inner Fairy, relishes the idea of apes traipsing through Fairy Rings or Fairy Doors with suitcase nukes.
