Funny that you mention fairies. ''Siofra'', according to some literature I read, means 'daughter of the fairies'. :lol:

Mhm, in Irish it means "Changling", who are those who are kidnapped by the fairies and replaced by a half-human half-fairy.

My great grandmother would always warn me to stay away from "na síoga draíochta" (the magical fairies), in case they took me away. :p

Ah, the Changeling. The fairies would sneak into the house, and exchange one of their own babies for the human child.

The Irish have some of the best legends in the Celtic world. :p

According to the legends, the exchange was done without the knowledge of the parents.

Yeah that's what happened in the show. And then the fake kids would feed off the parents.

Nah, they didn't eat the parents in folklore. They were just odd, misshapen babies with poor health and horrific cries. It was usually a punishment to the parents for interrupting a fairy ring.

IIRC, in the legends, the parents would get stuck with the changeling child and had to raise it. Changeling children were often described as irritable and bad tempered.

Sorry for the offtopicness. :p

Yup, that pic has a Bergman-ish vibe to it.

Keep the facial hair and keep your head-hair(?) short. Helps look older/mature/etc!

Do like the new hair more though
