Author Note: The second fill I did for HSWC. Funny how it's another DaveJade... The prompt was that Dave had to have something to do with crows.
After years and years of collecting dead animals, Dave decided it was time to get one that was actually alive. But he didn't know what kind of animal to get, let alone how to care for it once he did. There was only one person he knew who could help him; Jade was one of his best friends and she just happened to have a gigantic white dog. Though Dave didn't care for the devil-beast, he would admit that Jade trained it well. She would probably be able to offer good advice about not only what kind of pet to adopt, but also how to keep it alive.

Dave grabbed a net Bro left lying around; it was time to catch a crow. He crept up the stairs, ready to ambush the flighty creatures. He leapt out and swung his net at them, and that was when everything went wrong. Needless to say, he did not catch a crow that day.
When he messaged Jade about it later, she dubbed it 'The Day When Crows Attacked'.
He decided to stick with dead things.
End Note: So this is probably the last thing I'm going to do for HSWC since it's almost over.
