    Cash, cash, cash for your bones! Too many bones? Not enough cash? Call Cash Bone! Ribs, skulls, spines, even certain tiny ear bones. The leg bone’s connected to the Cash Bone!

    My brother once slept in with his head under his pillow. He got much for his skull but at what cost…

    Mom got angry when I kept putting chicken bones under my pillow each night. “Don’t incur the wrath of the bone fairy!” she warned!

    Anyway, I’m a fae touched warlock now so who’s laughing now, Ma.

      Anyway, I’m a fae touched warlock now so who’s laughing now, Ma.

      In my experience, the answer to this is nearly always “everyone involved in the situation, except for you.”

    A femur? That depends, is it your femur? Or is it a femur you acquired?

    In the former, you may be eligible for a lifetime of less-than-poverty wages, for free from a thing called “dys ahh bill eee tee”…

    If it’s the latter, you can get an all expenses paid trip to the local penetentary! Where you will be given free food, clothing and shelter, possibly for years!

    Either way, you may not have to work, ever again… Or maybe you just won’t be able to! Who knows!

    One bag of freshly plucked eyeballs from the eyeball fairy.

    The eyeball fairy leaves you with 1 lb of spleen’s.

    They all trade parts to leave you with something. You don’t want to know what the pound of flesh fairy leaves…

      Well, bones are quite a lot bigger compared to teeth so, it’s a possibility that you could get more money from a bone fairy.

        Seeing how bone fairies are more hostile, the bones you place under your pillow will likely end up as protection fees.

        Miss a payment and lose a bone.

    I didn’t realize fairies worked like the American healthcare system, with mouth bones being a super special exception from the rest of the bones

      Eh, tooth fairies are totally unheard of in quite a few countries, but dental school is regarded as medical special ed pretty much worldwide.

    Those fairies live in the same universe where the skeletons came at night and the bones are their money and so are the worms?

    The tooth fairies in Pathfinder pull out tiny pliers and take your teeth by force, can’t wait to throw them at my group
