Okay so I just saw the new good omens poster and I saw these suspicious looking birds in the background.

Okay So I Just Saw The New Good Omens Poster And I Saw These Suspicious Looking Birds In The Background.

Now while I can’t really tell due to distance. They kinda look like Magpies. So I counted them, there’s 15 so according to the fortune telling nursery rhyme 15’s a sojourn. Which means a temporary stay. The question is does this refer to Gabriel, the new cop character or a new surprise.

P.S if your thinking ooh Spinster this is really niche what makes you think Neil Gaiman would use this to foreshadow. He already used it in a sandman comic.

Does anyone know the nursery rhyme that goes like

One for sorrow

Two for joy

Three for a girl

Four for a boy

Five for silver 

Six for gold

Seven for a secret never to be told

This nursery rhyme is usually associated with crows when it's actually about Magpies. Magpies are so pretty like geywhgfiweusygurkeswtyufes

Anyways, did you know the ancient Romans believed these birds had an association with magic and fortune-telling. The meaning nowadays has changed though. Now they are related to things like ill tidings, bad omens, and Witchcraft. Which I would totally try when I live alone in the house of my dreams. I might even get two magpies to complete the dream.

If I was in camp half-blood. Honestly I would call Hazel, Nico, and Reyna into my Cabin (13) anyways we would be having so much fun being witches. Let’s see how well this goes…

Here I am, frantically posting the rest of Inktober 2020 before Inktober 2021 starts!

I’ve done Inktober every year since 2013, so I was quite upset that I couldn’t finish it in 2020. I kept trying for the whole month, but I only managed a few sketches. If you squint you can see there are two dates on some of these - those are the ones that were at least sketched on the right day, the others were backfilled months later. 

I’m going to try again this year, so hold your thumbs for me!
