considering your unseelie, "unseelie justice" is downright oxymoronic and it leaves me waiting for the punchline to this really good joke you're telling. =D
systems of self-imposed rules that works perfectly well, as long as everyone holds the same standard....but at least there IS a higher authority to catch those that for some reason aren't with the program. i could see it being really tangly and confusing in practice--but then again, their system is of themselves, for themselves, they're born and raised with it deeply ingrained, and they don't have to think about things like immigration and such, right?
do the authorities ever step in when they think a seelie is being too ridiculous about their own punishment, or the wronged is being just TOO over-the-top harsh?
