“Just then, though, who should appear but her fairy godmother.”
“Her what?” Ron said in disbelief.
“Her fairy godmother,” Hermione repeated.
“Who in their right mind would pick a fairy as a godmother? Don’t they know how dangerous those things are?” Ron said. “I mean, really, why not just give her a banshee godmother; they’re about as deadly.”
“Muggles think of fairies differently,” Hermione explained. “They don’t really understand them.”
“Yeah,” Harry chimed in. “They think they sneak into the house in the middle of the night and swap kids’ fallen-out teeth with money.”
“Now there’s a comforting image: one of the fae walking in and stealing body parts. Don’t they know how much trouble giving a magical being a body part can lead to?” Ron said, still flabbergasted. “Everyone knows that!”
“Well, Muggles don’t,” Hermione said. “Besides, the Tooth Fairy is something only children believe in. Mostly Muggles just think of fairies as tiny, cute, pudgy things with wings to put on greeting cards with flowers and bunnies.”
“There really ought to be a public service campaign for them, then,” Ron said pityingly. “So how’d Cinderella’s Muggle mum and dad even know a fairy to make a godmother to begin with?”
“Well, I… I don’t know. They never really explain how she wound up with a fairy as a godmother,” Hermione said, tilting her head to one side in consideration. “It is sort of an odd loose end to leave, isn’t it?”
“No kidding,” Ron agreed. “Hermione, no offense, but this is a really weird story.”
“Her what?” Ron said in disbelief.
“Her fairy godmother,” Hermione repeated.
