Fairy's manner (3)

I believe the answer is:

air

Here is my best explanation:

This clue is a double definition.

'fairy's' is the first definition.

'manner' is the second definition.

(air is a kind of manner)

(Other definitions for air that I've seen before include "Light breeze", "Atmosphere; appearance", "Melody or tune", "Mixture of gases needed for breathing", "Gas mix surrounding the earth", "Tune or aura", "If it's hot, it's boastful", "Look - warm and dry", "Broadcast - song" and "Atmosphere - tune".)
