** It's subtle, but it's there. The fairies are nothing short of patronizing to the elves (particularly the royals and more specifically Nanny Plum, who can be vocally disdainful of the non-magical using elves). On the other side, most elves (but particularly the Wise Old Elf and sometimes Mr. Elf) seem to scoff at the fairies' lack of manual abilities. This sometimes causes friction between both races and their most... vocal leaders, like Nanny Plum and the Wise Old Elf, who frequently scuffle.
