I want to see a fantasy world where you don't have humans, orcs, dwarves, and elves as your sentient species, but instead you have humans, mice, dolphins, and cockroaches as your sentient species.
Oh, and they don't interbreed. Unfuck your rule 34.

what can be construed as "fantasy"? Because I don't write about orcs, dwarves or elves.
There's probably some really weird fantasy novelist that's proving me wrong, but I've never seen them, and so while I will acknowledge their possible existence, I will remain skeptical.
Also, people like to humanize inanimate and unknowing things, and they'll do it to animals too.

Again, go read China Miéville. He's not the only one who writes weird, disconcerting xenofiction, either. The parasite race in Octavia Butler's "Bloodchild", for instance.

there's an entire website and shared fictional universe dedicated to xenofiction but I'm blanking on the name. They're big on transhumanism too, sci-fi community obviously.

I wonder if the fairies, in addition to refusing to use mortal-built phones, also maintain their own wireless service provider

Princess Alice once found a misplaced fairy phone but she couldn't do much with it because its entire contents were encrypted and the unlock screen, instead of having a numeric keypad, had weird symbols that she didn't know the meaning of, even after looking on Wiccapedia.

Fairies are kinda xenophobic, really
Tumblr would call them problematic
excuse me
the Social Justice Fairy has written post after post explaining why this is NOT xenophobia
I ended up unfollowing the Social Justice Fairy after she kept sending me asks saying that describing the November weather as "bipolar" was ableist towards people with mood disorders

And yes. Also, literal bird-people.
For those who don't know what we're talking about:
