Magical Build-up, or Magical Back-Up,[1] is a condition where a fairy's torso inflates into a sphere, explodes, then turns into fairy dust. It only happens if the fairy cannot grant wishes to their godchild (as shown in "The Same Game") or if the fairies do not perform wishes for a certain amount of time (as shown in "Fairy Idol").

Symptoms[]

If a fairy is not able to grant wishes to their Godchild, the magic will begin to build up inside of them until magical build-up occurs. The length of not granting wishes depends on the fairy's size as well as the overall conditions that are occurring for the godchild and/or the world (for example, in "The Same Game", the smaller fairies experienced Magical Build-up only minutes after losing their godchildren and being unable to find their godkids due to everyone looking exactly the same. While in "Fairy Idol", Norm (who is larger) took a full two weeks to experience it. Unlike in "The Same Game", Cosmo and Wanda get Magical Build-up after 24 hours of not granting a wish, which might have possibly been because there was no major crisis for Fairykind on finding their godchildren). Once Magical Buildup occurs the victim will begin to burst into sweat and start shaking. Their torso will then begin to inflate like a balloon by certain amounts about every half-second. While this is happening, the arms will begin to extend outwards. The fairy may also begin to flail their limbs rapidly. The victim may also stretch their body as shown by Wanda in "The Same Game." The victim will blow up larger and larger until their torso becomes a sphere and can't hold any more magic. Their bellies' will then stay still for about 1-2 seconds (unless they are flailing their limbs,) until they explode into fairy dust or confetti with only their eyes and/or mouth intact. Even without their mouth intact the fairy will still be able to talk.

Cure[]

The only known cure is to grant a wish before or during Magical Buildup. If the fairy explodes, however, the only way is to be wished by someone else back to normal.
