✨🧚Mistress Flora, Mistress Fauna, and Mistress Merryweather🧚✨ (2)
Three good fairies to raise a princess
- “After today, she’ll be a princess, and we won’t have any Briar Rose.”
- “Now, now. We ... we all knew this day had to come.”
- “But why did it have to come so soon?”
- “After all, we’ve had her for sixteen years.”
- “Sixteen wonderful years.”
Technically, Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather aren’t Aurora’s real parents, but I love them just the same. These three adorable fairies put aside their magic for sixteen years in order to take care of Aurora, even though she wasn’t their responsibility. And through it all, they protected and raised her without question - loving every minute of it.

Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather, the three good fairies
"Their most honored and exalted excellencies, the Three Good Fairies; Mistress Flora, Mistress Fauna, and Mistress Merryweather!"
"I'd like to turn her into a fat ol' - hop toad."
"Now, dear, that isn't a very nice thing to say."
"Besides, we can't. You know our magic doesn't work that way."
Aurora Rose looked back and forth among the three women, gladly distracted from the sad events by the puzzle before her. The fairies in real life had their own personalities, of course, despite their superficial similarities as ageless, chatty, loving aunt figures. Flora tended to try to lead and made decisions for them. Merryweather seemed to understand the basic workings of the world better, although she rarely acted on this knowledge and instead chose to comment snarkily on it. Sometimes she got sneaky and went behind Flora's back. Fauna was the one who hugged the princess the most and often acted as an intermediary between the other two.
