[Jurassic Weeb]

@Sola BTW, how long after D-Day (Dino-Day) will the RP be set? Five years? Ten?

@Jurassic Weeb

Hundred odd years or so.

I'll work on getting an OOC up later this week.

[Jurassic Weeb]

Okay, so everything's relatively normal. And has prehistoric life replaced mammals, for the most part?

@Jurassic Weeb

For the most part, yeah. I doubt most creatures will be able to stand up to eight ton beasts (unless you're that lion from the JW:FK ad).

[Lady Selune]

@Sola
I don't care what anyone says, that Lion is getting ALL THE BITCHES with his all-you-can-eat lizard buffet.

@Lady Selune

But can that lion do this?

*bird buffet.

@Jurassic Weeb

Well, Tyrannosaurus Rex does mean "king of the tyrant lizards" despite being more related to birds.

[Jurassic Weeb]

@Sola The "saurus" is basically a holdover from the old days of paleontology, and Tyrannosaurus and its relatives were members of Coelurosauria, which were more closely related to birds than other archosaurs like crocodiles. And while it's only a theory that adult T. rexes had feathers, the babies certainly had at least some kind of down.

Paleontology aside, knowing Rexy, if she was willing to show Blue mercy for not being afraid of a much larger carnivore (and helping kill it), then I'm sure she gave that lion due credit for having 'nads of steel.

@Jurassic Weeb

I'm aware. I was just making the connection that @Lady Selune mentioned lizards (rather than birds) and that Tyrannosaurus Rex is the "king of the tyrant lizards" despite being closely related to birds.

Also, I don't think it wasn't direct mercy, rather I think Rexy momentarily saw Blue as an ally. That, and Rexy wasn't feeling another fight right away to begin with. I don't doubt that she could easily take Blue, but Rexy is getting old by now (apparent by her change in roar), and she did just get her shit kicked in by the Indominus Rex.

[Jurassic Weeb]

True. And if the Blue VR is canon, they've had at least one scrap between the films.

[False Prophet]

I don't know what to say

But I'm interested

[Jurassic Weeb]

@Sola You might have covered this before, but I'll ask for _{because I can't remember your answer} everyone else's sake: are the portals only opening to one specific time period (Late Cretaceous, Early Jurassic, etc.), or are they all opening up to different times and places (ie- having a portal opening up to the Triassic and another to the Cretaceous in the span of a mile or two)? And are they tied to the place (ie- a portal in New York City opens up only to where NYC was 75 million years ago)?

@Jurassic Weeb

Multiple portals opening up in different time zones/periods.

They aren't tied to the location so there can and will be variation of species of multiple periods.

[Lord of Evil]

This sounds... really interesting. Is there still room?

[Riegal]

Sneaking in interest~

Sorry about the delay! I would've had the OOC up by now, but according to the people who we have internet from there was an outage from right before 2PM yesterday that wasn't fixed until about six hours ago, and I didn't get home until just now. Can't pass up the chance to buy some Ritter Sport and enjoy my German heritage once in awhile at a local German-American society, after all.

I'll try to have something up by Saturday afternoon/Sunday morning, so I'm double-checking if you're all still interested.

[Jurassic Weeb]

@Sola No worries, bruh. IRL happens. Plus, you know for a fact I'm sticking around.

@Sola

I don't have a lot to do so I'll be around for the foreseeable future.

Aye aye captain!
