Paul, "we don't know" is an acceptable answer. Seriously. If they mention Fae in the future, you're wrong now.

As it stands, in the real world, Fae are a classification of mythological creature to which banshees belong. And that is ALL THAT THEY ARE. We have been given no means to classify banshees as of yet. None. Deaton hasn't said "There's no such thing as Fae, they're just a myth." So the correct answer is we do not know. Saying something does not exist when we haven't gotten confirmation one way or the other is making up facts, something you routinely frown upon as long as other people are doing it.

We. Do. Not. Know. Say it with me.

And Jester -- no, that is categorically false. When dealing with fictional worlds, ordinary people assume that the places where it branches off from the real world have been revealed until told otherwise. It is safe to assume there is a governor of California in the Teen Wolf universe. It safe to assume Canada is north of the United States in the Teen Wolf universe. It is safe to assume trout exist in the Teen Wolf universe, until Jeff Davis shows us something different.

This is the way all other fictional universes are handled not just by their intended audience but by academics. Why would the Teen Wolf universe be any different? Because Paul said so? No.
