It’s been a while since I’ve done some hoard posting, so here’s some trinkets and treasures that I don’t think I’ve shown yet. There’s crystals, fossils, shells, coral, and some other odd things. 
There’s also a bunch of origami stars I made, I keep them in a little jar with spider-shaped confetti (㇏(•̀ᵥᵥ•́)ノ) The little grey and brown bat is actually one of my favourite childhood toys that I recently found again! ♡ (๑❛ᴗ❛๑୨୧)𐐚

Ik this isn't about whether or not something is actually Jewish but I've been curious about this for over a year. I'd heard a few times on the internet that goblins are based on antisemitic imagery and that it's one of the big controversies/criticisms of goblincore. I personally enjoy goblincore: collecting rocks and snail shells, cozy and simple clothes, and enjoying anything that's shiny, whether or not it has monetary value; and when I draw my goblins I avoid things I know are common parts of antisemitic imagery, like the dramatically hooked noses and such, but I also want to draw more diverse noses so I'm not always drawing button noses. Ik this is probably a silly ask and I'm sorry if it's dumb I just want to know...here is one of my goblin drawings as an example of what I draw...
Tumblr media
It’s not a dumb ask at all, and we welcome silly asks (though this isn’t that either).
So, goblins are very old European mythological creatures. And with most old European mythologies, they've gotten tangled up in some pretty antisemitic imagery. While no one has ever outright said "this goblin represents Jews" in fairytales, for anyone with an understanding of antisemitic imagery, the parallels and underlying messages are evident. Jews have for a long time been portrayed as having shorter statues, speaking in strange languages, and having grotesque facial features. Jews have been portrayed as living at the margins of society and engaging in amoral behaviour such as outright thievery or hoarding wealth. Sound familiar? Now, goblin-core as I understand it seeks to emulate popular features of goblins, such as dressing more 'grunge' and collecting shiny trinkets and generally not aligning with mainstream societal norms. Goblin-core in its origins is merely a niche countercultural aesthetic, and I believe most people do not engage in it maliciously. However, it becomes problematic when the goblin-core aesthetic readily embraces artwork and images with antisemitic undertones, and when the people who identify with the aesthetic try to shut down Jews when we voice our discomfort with certain aspects of it. As an alternate term, some prefer “corvid-core,” as it has the same nesting and shiny-collection vibe without the history.
Verdict: It's not inherently antisemitic, but just like cottagecore isn't inherently white supremacist, you've got to tread carefully in the space and check yourself.

you know, now that the personification of the chats as entities are a lot more talked about, i cant help but go back to previous moments and think of these like. hordes of animals being present when it happened.
like imagining the code fight trying to defend tallulah, but the skies are shadowed with crows,all of them staying in the distance but sometimes diving down in useless attempts at assisting phil defend tallulah
a bunch of rats in the vents of the prison, sneaking scraps and anything that maybe could be useful to pac and mike
a bunch of moles and builder rodents hanging on a boat, some of them trying to shake foolish awake and others franticly trying to reach leo as she's flung up in the air by a whale. or the same tiny things just, jumping around the stairs of vegetta's home when the code attack happened
a hoard of angry whispering ghosts and hissing cats (idk what baghera's chat is) surrounding elquackity as bad checks on dapper on the cage after being kidnapped
and then the obvious: the phil and etoiles code fight, with the glass dome completely obscured by a murder of corvids, with only the lights of buzzing fireflies between them. Cats, rats, ghosts, all of them hanging on the edges of the arena, all eyes trained on the fight
i just think it brings SUCH a visual flare to epic scenes....

They Gentry call her Magpie.
A wordsmith with a love of poetry, a crafter of trinkets, a clever bird with a glittering hoard and too many wits for her own good. She was an easy mark, once, easily lured by shiny baubles and flowery words, a prize songbird fit for slaughter. But, like all corvids, she was both smart and loud; she knew when she was being tricked, and fled into the Library squawking bloody murder, a clarion call for whatever aid could be spared. Her emergence was a storm of reflected light and righteous fury, the grudge of a corvid whose flock had been pestered for far too long. She took back what was hers and then some; her new boundaries clearly drawn in salt and spilled blood. She is a thief, the Gentry say, and she wears her namesake well.
To her fellow students she is Rook, Jackdaw, Raven, Bluejay, Crow - any number of avian names, so long as they are Corvidae in nature. She is an English major with Forbidden friends, a charmsmith of feathers and iron, a poet with a silver tongue, a friend to the crows. In her early days at Elsewhere she was a wanderer lost, pale pink stars on a denim jacket winking out far too fast. A memory lost was found and repurchased, an act of open rebellion which caught the Gentry’s ire. A damascene knife made quick work of the shadows, but that wasn’t the only darkness she faced. Seasonal depression followed her Elsewhere, and a month without a sky takes a toll on the mind. A golden pin now adorns a jacket sewn with stars, and the miniature sun which lights her steps has led many out of the Gentry’s clutches. Webcutter may be her primary weapon, but a phoenix-feather quill or a blown-glass pen are just as deadly in a poet’s hands.
The Gentry call her Magpie. Thief. Enemy.
The students call her Murder.

So yknow how we all hc Grian to be part bird?
I find ot really funny bc we all just agreed that since season 7, Grian has been a scarlet macaw hybrid. Which I feel like we are missing out on so many potential versions of Grian if we looked out of that scope yknow?
I feel like Grian being a corvid of some sort makes so much sense bc LOOK at his chest monster? and his season 9 sollution? to just hoard everything into vaugley sorted chests? Look at Midnight alley, and his Magical Menagerie, HE COLLECT COOL SHIT!!!
Idk where I'm really going with this but what if the Watchers were a murder of biblically crows?
Can you imagine this swarm of glowing purple eyes, surrounded by ebony feathers and sharp claws, crying out in a thousand tongues
"PʧƘÝ ƁỊŘĐ!"
I think that would be pretty rad :]
Also have a murder of black crows bully Jimmy is funny. bc canary curse and all lol

I don’t know why, but sometimes when I get phantom shifts, I feel wings even though I’m not an avian therian of any kind. Though, I do feel a bit like magpies and dragons and experience similar behavior patterns to them at times, including hoarding shiny stuff, but I don’t think I’m a corvid therian or dragonkin. Might be, but I’m unsure, time will tell and I’ll look into it more.

Dragon!Price x Corvid!Raven AU
Tumblr media
This brainrot has tAKEN OVER MY HEAD I SWEAR
bonus + some story if you're interested
bonus
Tumblr media
okay so, the idea is that Raven is...predominantly a Raven hybrid(LMAO) but I figured to incorporate some of the Crow and Magpie habits into her
Basically, Raven's been travelling around after she was nearly killed by her kind(hence the scar on her face and the single wing - also a tribute to her actual lore where her back was stabbed), barely able to survive until she stumbled upon Price's den, and WOAH THATS A LOTTA GOLD
so it started off small, where she steals some gold, just enough to survive the week, but then the curiosity grew and she finds herself back to the den, over and over again
I mean there's so much more than just gold coins, there was a bunch of other treasures alike and they're all. so. shiny.
How could she resist?
and so day by day, she explores the den, it's absolutely massive, sometimes she might even slide down those piles of coins for fun
one day a glint caught her attention, it looked like a porcelain pale owl mask, and when she tries it on it was a perfect fit, she kept it afterwards.
the owner of the den seemingly never once appeared no matter how long she waited, and so she assumes it was a long lost forgotten treasure someone had.
she didnt had the intention to steal everything no, in all honestly the den was located somewhere far and dark, and it was only accessible by a very small hole that she squeezed herself through in her full bird form.
it was a safe place to stay and so she did.
until one day when she on her usual walk and picking up a crown that the pile of gold coins shifted, and it reveals......
bright orange scales.
and an eye, which opened once the gold coins stopped.
little did she know, the owner of the den, Dragon!Price has been hibernating beneath the treasures, and now he was awaken by a pesky bird.
YES think about that one scene in Hobbit this was 100% inspired by it
Tumblr media Tumblr media
some Dragon!Price hc in this au:
used to take part in battles and territorial fights, which results in many scars, especial the one in his left eyes, one of those fight eventually results him to lost a wing(yes, bluegiragi with their single wing Price for credit)
prefer to be in his hybrid form where his half human half dragon, because being a big lizard boy takes up hella space and hard to satiate his hunger
but he does hibernate as a dragon cuz well he's home, and it feels great to be weighted down by all his treasures
very greedy, if he wants something he'll get it, also dragon hoarding tendencies
havent thought about this but I reckon this so call "den" is just a big hole underneath a castle maybe - ah well just yoinking Hobbit's Lonely Mountain
also possessive :]
Raven herself has shiny fur...and he loves shiny too....so..... :p

I feel like Nightwings and Sandwings will bond over scraps and collecting shiny, valuable things, and when the Hivewings get involved, it will be a giant ass party. They all fit the agenda of the myth of corvids hoarding stuff.
HAHAHA YES
