Has anyone ever seen living dinosaurs in the Outlands?

If yes, has anyone out there in our world ever taken a page from Jurassic Park and secretly brought a few back?

Three guesses where I’m going with this.

oh!! ohhh!!!

you should ask one of the tamers about that.

[Helping!]

[hawkwardness]

What tamers?

[hattersgonnahat]

yeah. the ones that brought the eggs n stuff.

....on second thought, the health professors might know where to find them.

[hawkwardness]

Oh, right. That was a while back.

[Honestly he expected he’d get more jokes about nesting thrown his way.]

Hopefully they’ll answer if they do.

[hattersgonnahat]

they should!!! ......unless they dont want anyone to have dinosaurs as pets.

but they did let us keep everything else.

[hawkwardness]

I kind of already had a pet though, one’s enough for me.

[hattersgonnahat]

...you do???

what is it????

[voidbug]

dinosaurs?

[hawkwardness]

A kind of animal that went extinct on this side a really really long time ago.

[voidbug]

[Ponders for a moment.]

Are they friendly?

[hawkwardness]

There were way too many kinds for me to say yes or no to that. Probably not. No people around to tame them like pets back then.

[voidbug]

What they look like?

[hawkwardness]

Probably like this guy.

They lived so long ago no one’s sure because all we have are bones to look at, basically.

[voidbug]

[Sees image, and...] Fluffy.

Not seen it before.

didn't absorb the rest of jurassic park, huh birdbrain?

while you're doing all that, find me something that will make me the coolest brother ever, would you? a tooth would be neat if bones are in low supply.

[hawkwardness]

If I had been put in charge of the park, everything would have been fine, believe me. Those guys were idiots.

Also, if I can somehow morph a dinosaur I can basically give you endless teeth and feathers. To make a necklace with or something. Bones, not so much.

[awooligan]

uh huh, and the other times?

glad I can count on you

man shifter rules are a headache if you think about them too much, huh. what stays and what doesn't, where something goes. you know I keep my piercing when I go wolf? so what's up with clothes disappearing

[hawkwardness]

What about them? Not really my problem.

I have no idea. My ‘rules’ make more sense than yours. Maybe you care more about the piercing than the clothes? Maybe it’s because you know they’d get in the way? Who knows.

[awooligan]

okay dude good luck with your dinosaur project

» idwp.jpg

I feel like my bracelets wouldn't be in the way

[hawkwardness]

I just want to be a tourist for now. Maybe pet a few of them, if they exist. And I’m pretty good at not getting eaten if I find myself living out the movie.

#2

Wouldn’t they be too tight?

[awooligan]

you answered that pretty quick

my wrists aren't THAT skinny...

[hawkwardness]

Which that?

Compared to a wolf’s? Don’t your bones grow?

[awooligan]

dog pants
like you got experience

I couldn't take them off or anything but I don't think they'd snap

[hawkwardness]

They’re not pants unless they cover the whole rear end, okay.

Then I don’t have a clue. I mean, you’re really becoming a flesh and blood wolf, it’s not an illusion, so I don’t know why anything would disappear...

[awooligan]

just say ass, nerd

it's convenient, like I'm not losing clothes all the time and showing up naked, just doesn't make sense right? magic shit

[hawkwardness]

No.

Yeah. I guess I would take convenience over making sense. You’d hate it if you ended up tangled on clothes all the time like you would if your magic worked like mine. I hate it and, you know.

[He still barely bothers with humanity. It’s overrated.]

[awooligan]

how about butt then? what's the limit?

sure, you hate it and you hate it. guess the blight's better than the light sometimes.

I give you maybe a year or two before you decide it's not worth putting thought into anymore.

[hawkwardness]

Dude, there are probably little kids reading this because I mentioned dinosaurs and now you’ve taught them new words.

[For sure little bug kids who probably don’t even know what a ‘butt’ is.]

I’m barely thinking about it now.

[awooligan]

there's worse they could learn on the internet. butts are pretty tame.

?
wait you're right that reads like I'm saying you'll give up on human form
meant the opposite
girls, dude

[hawkwardness]

Yeah, but at least I’m not the one responsible.

This is why you need to be specific, dude, because we’re talking about three things here or something. I meant weird magical theory and rules.

Girls?

you ever just...hate what you're writing

[awooligan]

I'm talking about right now maybe you don't like dealing with going human much, but someday soon you're going to realize there's chicks out there and not the bird kind, the hot girl kind

they're not gonna want beak action
if they do, fucking RUN man don't stick your dick in crazy

you should

[hawkwardness]

CLIFF

[awooligan]

you know I'm right

[hawkwardness]

WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH LITERALLY ANYTHING THIS POST WAS ABOUT, CLIFF.

WHICH WAS MORPHING DINOSAURS.

[awooligan]

cool chicks dig dinosaurs and you gotta morph to do anything about it

it's more realistic anyway

[stavros]

Are you certain this is a wise endeavour?

[hawkwardness]

What? You don’t even know what I’m planning.

[stavros]

The implications were very strong.

[hawkwardness]

Becoming a dinosaur...?

[stavros]

By causing Jurassic Park! We have averted enough ends of the world.

[nor_iron_bars]

the statute of limitations for illegal transportation of foreign species across US borders is six years

so no.

i totes have not done that.

(you wanna hit me up exactly four years and seven months from now, we can talk.)
