I want all of this to happen! My two cents. It's about Belle being a changeling making her Thumbelina. Anyone? I think Thumbelina is a fairy, due to her living in flowers, which the fairies are already shown to do. We've never seen Belle have an affinity for flowers, except in the context of her romance with Rumple, and only then, I believe it was one rose, one time (Gaston's corpse).

Honestly, a stronger case could be made for Maurice being a fairy since he was a florist. I don't know about guy fairies, but I do think it would be a cool twist of sorts. But then again, I would have theorized that Belle's mom was a fairy....nah, it's not too late for more Colette.

Well, fairies have never been explicitly mentioned to be female only (unlike their dwarf counterparts), though it seems like it so far.

But if they ever go back to Oz (unlikely), Santa Claus is not only the adopted son of a fairy, he's also the second male fairy, after his mother's king. Plus, if they ever do Shakespeare, King Oberon of the fairies is male as well.
