    We had a local murder visit our block every evening for a couple of weeks, flying about, perching in trees, screaming because they’re crows. But, they don’t only scream, they make other adorable noises, too.

    Sadly, they moved on a couple of nights ago to some other lucky neighbors. I’m sure not everyone enjoyed having them around, but I did. I like watching crows be crows.

      If an Eldritch beast suddenly started saying your name in a weird raspy voice, would you feel like it’s trying to be your friend

      Probably! They are super smart and will hold grudges against people that treat then badly and they will also tell all their friends about shitty people.

      You can also make friends with them and they will have your back.

    There is also the part where all the crowd in a rather large region all simultaneously go “somewhere” to do “something” and no human knows where that place is or what they do there.

    Holy shit I read that as “cow” every time and was very very confused.

    Wake up (okay)

    Eat some garbage (I guess grass crappy)

    Fuck with a rabbit (do cows not like rabbits?)

    Scream in a tree (wtf)

    I was wondering if I’d missed out on the big cow-rabbit war before getting to number four and figuring out I’d skipped the letter R in the first line.

      And cheesecake! I got my trash raided when I lived up north, but seeing the crows with their beaks and faces covered in cheesecake was absolutely worth the cleanup. They were so happy.

          A friend was visiting who brought me a homemade one as a gift. He makes great cheesecakes, but for whatever reason he only makes huge ones. I don’t have a big sweet tooth, and it got older than I felt comfortable eating.

          I’m glad it all worked out for my buddies.
