random things that remind me of gargoylecore 👁️

-homemade blanket nests and pillow forts, stacking books to create pillars so you can drape sheets on them

-sitting on ledges, watching from above

-little porcelain figurines, or just small collective items

-dusty antiques

-warm stew

-leaving the tv on and letting the static buzz

-using lanterns rather than fairy lights

-moth-eaten, frayed, and dirtied clothing, worn as if they're brand new

-pocket watches or lockets

-foggy and iced over lakes

-old museums

-small bones, animal teeth

-abandoned amusement parks

-tattered rugs that were once bright of color now faded and muddy

-big climbable tree roots

-fossils

concept

Zombiecore

Tired most if not all of the time

Paints nails mostly dark colors (or bright if you want)

Probably has eyebags

Going "uuuug" either as a vocal stim or just wanting to make the noise

"oh it's 6 AM already-"

most likely listens to Fall Out Boy every second of the day

Dark clothes

either pulls lower eyelids down and rolls ur eyes back or was that kid who flipped their eyelids inside out

says "i'll vore u stfu" as a joke or is actually serious you can never tell

feels like a human shaped slushie that melted

[5-pack-coffee]

Zombiecore?? Yes.

Dirt! On! Clothes!

R e d L i q u i d C o n s u m p t i o n

Wanting to be Not Alive, but not wanting to be Dead.

No Running

Being buried in sand :)

Hanging out near graveyards

“What if I jsut ate this raw ground beef”

Fake. Blood.

“Dude you look dead” “I feel dead”

Ripped clothes!

Honestly this should be a thing, I can get in on this. Call ur room ur crypt. Be Undead.

Feel free to add more!!

Alright so I only have a small amount of followers here but hopefully some people will see this and reblog.

On behalf of my friends in other -cores, please stop crosstagging.

If I search frogs I wanna see frogs, not cups of cottagecore or academia tea. If my friends search forestcore they don’t want to see books. If someone searches adventurecore they don’t want to see frogs. So stop tagging irrelevant stuff!

Please reblog to boost!! Most of the people doing this are the bigger blogs, and I’ll need a reach beyond you followers to reach them.

[old-things-and-whatnot]

New Core Idea:

Merchantcore

Aesthetic includes:

Dusty shops

Old jars

Faint smell of (incense/spices/baked goods)

Antiques

Making things (whatever those things may be)

Clothes wise imagine a goth pirate/fae

Any scavenger animal or animal that's generally disliked

Old medical supplies (I'm talking leeches and herbs old)

Similar to plaguedoctorcore (idk how to link the post but I will reblog it)

Aesthetic can vary since merchants sell different things. Oddities and bones? Merchantcore. Fruit and baked goods? Merchantcore. Curses? Merchantcore.

Pls help me make this a thing

[christinecanigula-archive]

JESTERCORE is the hot new thing

[christinecanigula-archive]

components of jestercore

bright and loud colors

[atlasrains]

Changelingcore Ideas:

Going barefoot

Liminal spaces.

Trees and rocks with faces

Shinies

Strange collections of like things (e.g. bottle caps, tickets, beads, ect)

Spending hours counting/organising/lining up collections. (Bonus points if you dump them all back into the box afterwards so you can do it again tomorrow.)

Bugs

Mushrooms + fungi (not picked)

Uncanny valley

Cute things that have been made a little bit creepy (e.g. teddy bears with too many eyes, doll limbs, ect.)

Comfort object/s that you take everywhere

Big heavy coats

Going to the woods/the sea/hilltops/paddock muttering a phrase, or counting under your breath the entire way there. Getting there and yelling the phrase/ just screaming.

Being alone in nature

Nature at night

Echolalia is definitely changelingcore if you want it to be

Stompy shoes

Forbidden stims

Lots of bruises + scratches from bumping into stuff

Moss

Fairy rings

Please rb with more changelingcore ideas!!

CORE PROPOSITION

surrealcore

i want to see more of this in general and it’s something that i think would be really fun to build upon so here are some examples:

-dreamscape type stuff

-liminal space

-that bitter nostalgic type stuff (dimly lit elementary school classrooms, empty playgrounds and public waterparks, just things that feel comfy & unnerving)

-of course just classic surrealism

-things that dont quite make sense but they resonate with you nonetheless

-things that dont quite make sense but it feels like they understand you somehow

-describing ur feelings/experiences in completely unconventional ways that still also 10000% encapsulate everything youre tying to express

-songs that dont necessarily feel dreamy, just that dig at ur subconscious in a new way

-collages of recurring images from your dreams

-art that highlights emotions that cant be expressed literally

-things like tornadoes, crashes, fires, and overcrowded areas with some kind of visually pleasing effect (examples included think unnatural lighting, haze, glow, strange levels of saturation, etc)

-paranormal encounters (orbs, spirits, cryptids)

-aliens & uncommon animals (for this i like sealife and slugs and bugs)

-distortion!!

-any genre you like. i personally like horror/uncanny themes but this could work with fantasy, scifi, etc. with EASE

-some cores this could be associated with: weirdcore, nostalgiacore, webcore, dreamcore, mysterycore, crowcore

SO YEA I REALLY WANT THIS TO HAPPEN SO IF U HAVE SOME IDEAS FOR POSTS PLS DO IT AND JUST HAVE FUN

cottagecore this, crowcore that. I’m starting the latest and best core

⛆Raincore Thoughts⛆

There are definitely different types of rain that might be based on the color of the sky at the time the showers occur

The soft, light grey days

Dark grey-blue nights with billowing, threatening clouds

Dark blue where it’s almost like there are no clouds at all because the sky is covered completely by these near texture-less clouds

Nighttime rain, black rain, where you probably don’t even see it because you’re asleep before you really hear the rain at all

Early morning rain where damn it! you just missed it… it’s gray, but it’s different. Maybe the sun’s starting to rise but no yellow or orange has really hit yet, maybe it’s still dark and right when you get to your destination, the sun’s puddle-y reflections blind you. You look back at the sun and see it hitting past the far away mountains, perhaps it’s barely past the horizon. The rest of the day is cold and beautiful

The weird times when it sprinkles in summer in one specific spot for no reason. You bet that you could even walk the whole diameter that the drizzle hit the ground, but you know for sure that the spots where the rain droplets hit have already evaporated.

Knowing that the way it rains a night before it will be foggy in the morning

MODERN CHAOTIC DARK ACADEMIA

listening to mozart, brahms, chopin (!!!), classical music in general at midnight with airpods

drinking carbonated water in a wine glass

drinking a p p l e j u i c e in a wine glass

cheap instant tea in an antique teacup that you're sure is haunted and has been passed down for at least two (2) and a half generations

playing bach on an electric piano

reading the secret history as an ebook

doing research on alkaline hydrolysis in that brand new library that appeared out of nowhere three blocks from your house

blasting operatic arias on bluetooth speakers

going to class gussied up in yout finest tweed, linen, silk, etc. with a worm on a string attached to the loop of your trousers

doing whatever the hell you want!!! dark academia is yours to make your own and if it makes you happy, then do it!!! (does not apply to murdering someone in cold blood, however)

Your stuff is really cool, and I’d like to get into Plaguecore but I feel like there’s just so much going on I have no clue where to start! Do you have any advice on how to get started and how to learn more about plaguecore? Thanks!

Hi there! Disclaimer: I didn’t invent plaguecore nor do I know what the actual rules are or if there are any (I think Plaguedoctormemes was the first one to start using the tag)  HOWEVER My impression of what plaguecore is about is as follows: plague doctors (specifically, the ones with the birb masks that were invented in the 17th century)

a sense of humor about old medical practices (leech-based phlebotomy, the four humors, miasmic theory, etc)

appreciation of nature, especially in regards to herbs /plants that were once used in medicine

appreciating old-timey aesthetic in fashion, art, architecture etc

appreciating modern day medical advancements!

An attitude of “everything around us is going to hell but we are gonna keep doing our best anyway” (most plague doctors died of plague – but they kept doctoring anyway)

a safe place for any societal-nonconforming folk to feel safe in their special interest!

plaguedocboi added: appreciation of crows/corvids bc of beaky aesthetic (thank you!)

Leeches

Did I mention leeches yet

Its important to mention the leeches (Fellow docs, feel free to add anything/correct me!)
