They're featured in a few fairy tales. Read a few to Mid when she was a bairn. Varies depending on their purpose, but usually just little men who get into mischief and after treasure. At least the ones in those stories.
Fairly certain this video took a lot of creative liberties.

Really nothing much to it, just a silly little gnome.

I think it would be helpful if you explained what a gnome is to me to begin with.
[Look, she is not as world traveled as you are, Cid!]

But if it entertains you, so be it. Who am I to judge?
[She's still judging.]
no subject
[He can tell.]

You're making this old man sad, Jill.]

no subject
[She's certain he doesn't know what kind of humor he likes himself.]
no subject
He could also use a heavy dose of it and you both might be able to have some fun with it.
[Don't make him say it.]
no subject
...I take it he didn't enjoy the gnomes either.
no subject
Not particularly, no. Threatened to throw my phone away.
no subject
At least we both know we don't enjoy gnomes.
[Or whatever else Cid finds hilarious.]
