Haunted And Excited By This Being A Field Of Study

Overview
Edit
The subject matter of childlore includes the traditions of children between the ages of about 6 and 15 such as games, riddles, rhymes, jokes, pranks, superstitions, magical practices, wit, lyrics, guile, epithets, nicknames, torments, parody, oral legislation, seasonal customs, tortures, obscenities, codes, etc.[2] as well as individual activities such as solitary play, daydreaming, fantasies, imaginary friends and heroes, collections, scrapbooks, model worlds, comic reading, mass media interests, dramatizations, stories, art, etc.[2]

As a branch of folklore, childlore is concerned with those activities which are learned and passed on by children to other children. The stories and games taught by adults to children are not considered childlore except insofar as the children adapt and make them their own.

you know how Chuuya carries knives in his coat. imagine him rummaging around for his wallet to pay for his morning coffee and like three knives accidentally fall out of his pocket

everyone instinctively takes three steps back and the silence would be deafening and he’s just like, “…so I’ll be paying with mastercard.”

(this is what i’m envisioning btw:)
