yet another concept: Annie and her family are T. mcraeensis, which are from places such as the javelina formation, and essentially they are like cowboys.
and since the pteranodon family meets them before seeing other tyrannosaurus, they assume buddy is a t. mcraeensis... He isn't
and whenever they meet an actual T. rex, and realize that rexes are, in fact, stuck up snobs, and that buddy is one of them...
I had no idea that Mcraeensis was a thing!
Dang! The differences are mainly in the skull structure apparently? Whooaaa...
I've always imagined the Tyrannosaurus family being very wildlife living, like cowboys yes, really living by the earth, hunter gatherer types. I love them so much man!
Buddy being a T-Rex who's not a snob (JUST LOOK AT HIM HE'S A PURE SWEET ANXIOUS WONDERFUL ANGEL AND HE'S MY SON AND I LOVE HIM!!) is a fun concept! In my fanfiction Bad Blood Buddy's biological parents are both just horrible people so that could check out lol (Buddy has a chill uncle and half brother tho)
"Hey, Annie, you're like a subspecies of those jerks?"
"Different species, subspecies, the Troodon Town scientists haven't figured it out yet. But yeah, we stay away from them for good reason."
"Damn... So do you think the two species can procreate, just asking to collect dinosaur facts, not because I have a crush or anything-"
