Oh please do continue to have opinions all over my comments, because these are delightful to read!
Oh, good, because it probably will keep happening.
There are so many fascinating things to work with there, including the emotional implications of Sam being willing to trust Zemo with his family.
I am in fact trying to figure out why Zemo rather than anyone else—I think the danger would have to come from something in his wheelhouse, like wild-card super-soldiers or neo-HYDRA. Or perhaps he comes to them with a warning and stays.
Also, I just really love the idea of Zemo being awkward in a domestic family-type situation, and Sarah's reactions to all of this.
He won't have been in a house with kids since his own. I don't know if we're actually told what happened to her husband except that he died. They aren't going to be one another's missing pieces for any number of reasons, but . . . I seem to be talking myself into a form of the ghost marriage, but it's a trope I've seen so fruitfully exercised in film noir, I'm really fond of it.
I 100% agree with everything you wrote ("believing in fairies is only slightly less of a no-no than talking about your feelings"), the idea of Pam lawyering a fairy court is incredible, and I now want to read this.
I have no idea if I can write it, but so noted!
Also, after the afterlife episode, I wouldn't even be particularly surprised to see someone making deals with fairies in canon.
I am almost willing to bet it would have happened if they hadn't been canceled. Flip a coin, at least.
