I had the same problem! So hard not to overthink.

Here are my reactions to each of your ideas, in case that might help?

  • The millet one intrigued me: I'd like to see a werebudgie and I think that's a really fun concept. (though I'm not sure about the punchline - just my opinion, and I'm notoriously hard to amuse.)
  • With the cockatrice one, my first thought was: will it be clear that they're saving the eggs rather than stealing them?
  • The raising of a baby griffin made me smile, overwhelmed by the cuteness.

I don't know if that helps in any way, but I hope you manage to make a choice and create something you're really happy with. 💛
