I half-seriously believe I was stolen by fairies as a child and am a highly normalized changeling, but not enough to check your tickybox. And I'm definitely not gonna count being able to steal boyfriends' exact phrases two seconds before they can say it. It's funny and sometimes even cute, but not supernatural.
I'm suddenly put in mind of a not-really-supernatural thing, but now I feel compelled to tell the story... it's a picture of my brother and I, looking into the camera, and I look positively enchanted (and just slightly out-of-focus), and my brother is sort of grumpy-squinty-yeah so? ...The reason being, for the first time, I'm looking at the place where half my bedtime stories were set, and he's looking at a scrubby little island in the middle of a river. ...But I wouldn't call it supernatural: I couldn't see the girl with the purple hat, or the dragon, the castle, the lighthouse, the giraffe, it was just sort of background-radiation magic...
