:> They ^re seen ^s ^n omen of de^th. I like th^t ^esthetic. But in truth they ^re simply birds like ^ny other ^nd I like th^t ^bout them too. I like their be^utiful bl^ck fe^thers ^nd their cleverness ^nd ^d^pt^ble n^ture. They ^re very lovely. ^v^ <:
+ that is interesting + - they are clever? - + how clever are they? + - what do they do? - + we do not know much about birds + - except which ones to be wary of and which ones to eat - + we would be happy to learn more + - we like to learn more -
:> Very clever! They c^n solve problems to get food, ^nd they remember trolls who ^re kind to them ^nd ones who hurt them. They ^re pl^yful! Only more intelligent ^nim^ls ^re pl^yful. ^v^ <:
+ that is interesting + - we didn't know that - + we are not mean to crows + - we are glad they remember - + we are not really kind to them either though + - should we start to be kinder? -
:> They like when you give them little bits of food! But only if you feel comfort^ble doing so. <:
:> Yes! I think it would be nice. I c^n ^lw^ys instruct you to stop if you decide you don’t enjoy it. Just let me know. <:

:> Once every two nights is fine! Just ^ h^ndful of corn or nuts, th^t’ll do, or me^t scr^ps. You don’t h^ve to report to me! But if you w^nt to, you m^y do so once ^ week ovo You don’t h^ve to feed every crow you see! But if you do see one (or more) ^nd it’s been two nights since you l^st s^w ^t le^st one, go ^he^d ^nd feed them if you h^ve sp^re food on you ^nd ^ren’t hungry yourselves ^v^ ^lw^ys feed yourselves first if you ^re. Crows ^re quite omnivorous! They ^re sc^vengers. But ^ny of the three things I mentioned will do. <:
