“—– Actually. I hadn’t considered that. I’d been under the understanding that one mosasaur would suffice. I could talk to the lab, and see what we can do. If it’s going to benefit both the asset and the park, I’m very interested. Are you willing to take on the care of a second, or do you need additional help? And— are there risks of her attacking a newcomer?”

“You get me the dino, I’ll train her up for you. Mossy’s not gonna hurt her, not being the only one in the enclosure. If she had a pod of her own, it might be trouble, and if the new one was big enough to be a threat. But Mossy’s at breeding age. If we introduce the newbie while it’s still young, chances are good she’ll adopt it as her own.”

A quiet giggle fell off her lips, poor Claire. She did her best, and unfortunately, her best meant scaring the staff into action. “The overgrown whale gets shy?” Now Zara really can’t believe that. But she doesn’t spend a lot of time anywhere near the exhibit, she’d seen Jaws.

“Something like that,” The assistant’s lips quirked into a half smirk at Miles, both endeared and amused by the eyebrow waggling. “That’s because it is a challenge. Unless Claire decides I haven’t finished everything she’s asked me to do, I’ll be free.” She usually finished about 8pm, and Claire was there even later, but she could probably finish up a little earlier if necessary.

“She’s not an overgrown whale. She’s the real deal, the original queen of the sea.” There was a certain admiration in his voice when he talked about her. He’d spent his whole life on the water. He’s swam with sharks, freed whales in the Antarctic, trained dolphins in conservation parks. But in all his life, he’d never seen anything as incredible as Mossy.

“So I’ll see you at 8:30, then. Come as you are, don’t gotta bring anything but your smiling face.”

“Not really, no.”

“Well that’s a shame. ‘Cause unless you got a reason to be here, I’m gonna have to ask you to clear out.”

【♚;; The youngest shrugged and picked up one of the model dinosaurs sitting on the desk of the office they were lounging in. She really wasn’t sure who even owned this space, not that she cared. Charlie shrugged as she lifted the toy to examine with curiosity. ❝ Paperwork I assume. They’ve been keeping close tabs on the four of us. Whatever it is, it annoys Papa. He always seems ANGRY afterward. ❞ Sitting up, her face creased to a mockingly serious and rather comical display of her older sister ❝ Delta says it’s because we’re just money to the park and that’s all they really care about. ❞

The RAPTOR girl fell into a fit of giggles over her own joke, rather amused by her rendition. The sound was low and husky, similar to that of what it had been before in her true being out in the ‘wild’. ❝ So what about you? What do you think of us? Money, Monster, Weapon? ❞

It was clear that Charlie felt a deep MISTRUST of any human except Owen. Not that anyone could really BLAME her after all the injections and procedures they had put her previous body through. Or maybe that mistrust threaded a little TOO closely with fear.

“Fun times.” He knew that struggle. He’d been beating guys like Hoskins away from his dinos with a stick, and they still hadn’t gotten the picture. Nobody was going to militarize his dinosaurs if he had a say in it, he didn’t care what the Navy thought they would or wouldn’t be good for. He’d been enlisted, done the military song and dance for a few years, and while he respected the hell out of what they stood for, the last thing they needed was another weapon they didn’t fully understand.

“I think you’re alive, just as much as I am. I think everything deserves respect. I think guys like Hoskins need a sharp kick in the ass.” He shrugged, like, but what do I know? He was just the zen water guy; half the people in the park were convinced he stashed drugs on his boat, and the other half were convinced he stashed other things.

They weren’t wrong, but they could at least wait to get to know him first.

“And I think anything else is just bureaucratic bullshit.”

Most days, Miles like to think of himself of a lover rather than a fighter. He was a pacifist at heart, really, and fights always seemed to get messier than they needed to, once they got started.

That being said, most days, he didn’t walk in on a bunch of uniforms beating the shit out of someone he knew and almost kind of liked.

Once the guys cleared out, Miles crossed the room to Pietro, hands on his shoulders as he tried to get a feel for the damage.

“You’re too pretty to let ‘em keep messing up your face like that. I did it for the artists of the island.”

It’s not because he cares about the guy. Seriously. He means that.

(Except maybe he doesn’t.)

“Fair point.”

Like he ever goes to meetings. He winces when Miles gets blood all over his face– more than it is, any way. Face and head wounds are dramatic and bleed like nobody’s business and Owe knows that, but they just look– shitty, is really the only word he has for it.

“—-You want me to put banana spiders in his bed? ‘Cause I can do that.”

“Yeah, I make those from time to time.”

Usually not when he’s halfway to concussed, but hey, nobody’s perfect.

“Banana spider, huh? I like the way you think. Except I already put a handful of Halloween crabs in his room. He’ll find ‘em ... eventually.”

“Oh god, no thanks.” He mumbled, and tossed off a leg quarter at the little meat- eaters around him. As babies, they’re harmless. But he doesn’t take care of them once they’re big enough to eat kid’s fingers.

“It’s kinda cool though, right? Badass dinosaurs that could kill you as soon as look at you, and we get to spend all day with them. It’s kind of humbling, if you think about it, being the low link on the food chain.”

“You look like shit, man. More than usual.”

And, yeah, he caught that, but he’s not going to say anything. Not just yet at least. He focuses instead on the splotches of color that he can see, particularly the one beginning to bloom around his left eye.

“Girlfriend or dinosaur?”

“Gee, thanks asshole.”

It’s a good thing his patients can’t really complain, because Coop’s bedside manner clearly leaves a lot to be desired.

“Jealous?”

Lyra nodded her head and took one last look at Mossy. “That must be fun. I can sometimes ride Harper when she lets me. Some days she wants me too cause she gets to go out a bit farther from the enclosure…really just around it in large circles but-” Lyra paused as she fixed her hair and brushed it out from her eyes.

“-She’s happy to have some “fresh air” “ Lyra told Miles as she made air quotes. “Then there are times when she reminds me what her nature really is” She told Miles as she started to walk around more, showing Miles an inch deep claw mark on her forearm and gave a small smile as she traced the lines and then traced a smaller on on her hand. “Lions and dinosaurs…beautiful but powerful and deadly.”

Lyra looked at Miles before she spoke again. “Yeah? Where do you wanna go? Winstons is a bit too fancy, I mean they’ve amazing steaks but I want an all american hamburger” She laughed

Miles winced sympathetically at Lyra’s battle wound. He had a few of his own like it. It was the price they paid for such a badass job. “Yeah, they’ll get you if you’re not careful.” He laughed. “And hell, sometimes if you are. They keep you on your toes.” But he wouldn’t want it any other way.

“I mean, we could hit the cafeteria.” The staff had a different, less ridiculously-priced one available to them. “Get some burgers there, if you wanted. Or I got some beef back on my boat; I could grill us up some real burgers, not those sad little tire scraps at the cafeteria.”

So he was kind of a food snob. Years of cooking for himself had left him a little bit spoiled, and when he got all his food shipped fresh from Costa Rica, it was hard not to be sort of biased. “I mean, if you want to. No pressure or anything.”

ingenetix:

“A giver he says. I’m blessed to know such a giving person.” Digging his elbow into the small of Miles’ back, he made himself comfortable for the ride. Once the overbearing neanderthal got it into his head that he was going to do something–Declan often got caught in the crossfire. “Can I at least know exactly where you’re going to take me so I know what coordinates to give the rescue party?”

“I mean, I don’t like to brag, but it’s nice to feel appreciated.” It wasn’t so nice to feel the elbow in his lumbar, but he guessed he had it coming. Declan seemed to stop squirming after that, but he didn’t let his guard down enough to loosen his grip. “No rescue party and no coordinates. It’s a surprise. You know what those are, right?”

assetsarecontained:

“Oh nothing much, just trying to escape from a giant fucking dinosaur that’s eating everyone…you should probably leave, wouldn’t want the dinosaur to eat you too…”

“Afraid I can’t do that, Mr. McBadass. My brother’s on this island somewhere, and I’m gonna find him. I’m not leaving until I do, dino be damned.”

#assetsarecontained #// he's not generally such a prick

fossilnerd:

“It has it’s good and bad days?” Aubrey said with slight shrug, his easy smile still curling his lips. “Wait…you actually get into the water with her? You can do that? Wow.” And he sounded very sincerely wowed by that statement, trying to even imagine it. “And you aren’t scared?”

“Yeah, I do. You kind of have to, sometimes, to fix things in the tank or to check on her. But she’s actually a piscivore. Humans aren’t generally on the menu, unless she perceives them as a threat. I raised her, though. I’m her pod leader. Unless I really fuck up, she’s not turning her teeth on me. It’s about knowing the animal, knowing what she wants and how she thinks.”

herbcvore:

“I think BOTH of us is the best bet. I know Yolanda, and she responds well to most everyone but pretty women. She has a FRAGILE ego.”

“You’d think a dinosaur would look better in green.” Yolanda was a jealous little thing. Cute, but damn. “Might be able to get her to move down river a little, but I think she’s decided that’s her spot.”
