im bored so im gonna write som shit about my favourite Dino charge villains because I can and I'll maybe draw them later if i feel like it.

------------

Wrench

Wrench is particularly clueless to anything that isn't mechanical engineering which means in his free time he likes to partake in non mechanical engineering hobbies without fully knowing the risks that come along with said hobby, like making back yard moonshine for instance. Wrench had been Extracting potato vodka for about 8 months and was quite chuffed to get his first batch of moonshine (Drinking it was probably the most and only fun he gets on that drab ship) so to say he fell in love with this hobby was abit of an understatement, but he still had no clue he was withholding a bomb strong enough to blow up half the ship boiling away snuggly in a side room somewhere. In fact it wasn't until Fury stumbled upon Wrench securing his second batch of Bomb juice and almost had a heart attack did Wrench learn that cooking potatoes and turning it into a delicious beverage in an inclosed and inhabited area was such a terrible idea. And you'd think he'd learn his lesson?

...

he did not.

He also loves sleep, Like its a chore to get him up in the morning. He could sleep for a millennia which makes sense because of how much work he does,the ship only runs because of him although to cheap out on work he has fixed a few vital panels with extreme stick glue. He's tired, cut him some slack

Also you bet he watches Romance movies, He's probably watched and cried over the Titanic 5 times now.

Singe

Where too start with Singe, well those markings on his face are actually traditional tattoos from his homeplanet he got when he turned 18. He was actually the epitome of a trouble making Teen British style when he was younger as He would always sneak out to drink Crap tonnes of Vodka on the dark streets until he passes out and somehow wakes up back at home bruised but not dead, He never actually grew out of his trouble making twat fase which is actually part of the reason why he gets headaches (he's hungover, probably from Wrenches home made moonshine) Most people also Don't know that he actually has an adopted sister called Fae and that they both lived and grew up with his Grandma. (Fae is the reason he wakes up at home in the morning and is just as bad as Singe, but more on her another time) Singe loves making fun of Fury, its actually his favourite past time until Fury decides hes had enough and slams Singes tail in a door. But he like Wrench doesn't learn his lesson (fury can't catch a break). The only person Singe doesn't bully is Wrench because he needs that special juice. (I actually love Singe he is such a bastard)

I also see Singe not only being an amazing cook but having such an incredible sweet tooth. Upon coming to earth for the first time he gained a slight addiction to pancakes and hot fudge brownies. Aside from being a totally unserious partial drunk most of the time, he does Enjoy cooking for everyone sometimes. its the only nice thing he does for them

Snide

Snide loves being a cunt in every aspect of life, he eat sleeps and breathes being an asshole. He can dish it out but can't take it back for the life of him, Like when Fury made a joke about his mum after he was absolutely slammed by Snide for a half hour. Snide lost his shit. Bastard was so upset he put himself back in solitary confinement for an hour just mumbling angrily to himself.

His favourite act of bastardry was when Archanon pulled up and started playing favourites with him, He abused that favouritism so much it was almost considered too much. He did this because playing "buddy buddy" with Archanon would get him what he wanted and He loved watching Singes face Cringe everytime the two got close.

Because Heckle obviously has a sweet tooth, it would only make sense for Snide to love Savoury foods, his favourite Savory foods being Sliced raw fish with soy sauce wrapped in Nori, you cant really call it Sashimi because Sashimi is beautifully cut and actually looks delicious, whatever Snide makes can only be considered as post death animal slaughter because its an actual fucking mess when he's finnished. Fish scales and tiny bones all over the kitchen table, it drives Singe fucking crazy and Poisandra can only describe Snide as "animalistic" and "carnivorous" whenever he enters the kitchen. Fyi Don't attempt to enter the kitchen while Snide's in there, just don't.

Archanon

Archanon had a wife at some point in life and they did actually love each other very much, until Archanon started wanting more and more, driven mad by the desire to acquire the dark energem that his wife began to see how much of a world destroying Tyrant he was and Divorced him. Its Rumoured that his wife was a goddess, The Goddess made of Seven condensed stars to be exact. But Archanon hates Talking about his Ex wife so only Singe and his sister really know, but its also rumoured that the two of them as a final order from Archanons Ex wife, to never speak of her name or her purpose and being to anyone. So yeah maybe she is maybe she isn't who knows.

Archanon is incredibly powerful with a large ass army, Half of his original army if the Divorce had anything to say about it, but still a powerful one that he fills with prisoners, hence why he paid Sledge to collect bounty prisoners, it was for the army.

He doesn't sleep, like straight up never. He runs off coffee its like the only thing keeping him alive anymore, if he were to stop drinking it he'd probably drop deader than Atmosphere of the room he's in when anyone mentions the words "marriage" and "Divorce" or "split it in half". Probably got ptsd from being single like the pathetic little man he is

Conversation

Wrench: You can't be in here!

Riley: Chase and I are gay and Shelby is black, so kicking us out would be a hate crime.

Chase: I'm only half-gay, but I think trees are born the same way as babies, so kicking me out would be kinda mean.

Nobody asked me but I think the main reason Ninja Steel’s writing suffers is complete and utter lack of subtlety

I feel like all Power Rangers shows do this in some capacity, like it is a kids show, fair, but Ninja Steel way over-relies on the crutch of having characters just explain exactly what’s happening out loud

There’s this scene in Dino Charge in the episode When Logic Fails when Riley’s crawling through the vents, and in the room below he sees Fury and Wrench trying to power up the Ptera Charger while the indistinct glowing figure of Ivan is struggling to break free. They don’t undercut the tension of the scene by having Riley be like “Oh, no! It looks like there’s some kind of energy being emerging from Fury!” His reaction feels a lot more subdued and natural. And it is a genuinely tense scene, because it gives you questions that aren’t immediately answered in the next line of dialogue. Riley doesn’t know what the thing inside of Fury is, and neither does the viewer.

Another thing Ninja Steel does that I don’t think Dino Charge really did (at least, not as much) is where the lesson or moral of every single episode is just spelled out word for word in dialogue. Like in the episode where Preston gets his spell book and Princess Viera was like “Whatever you do, do NOT try to learn them out of order” and I was just like “Ohhhh nooooo, I wonder what he’s going to doooooo”

And then at the end he still needs to have it spelled (heh) out to him that you can’t get good at something by cutting corners and that to fix his mistakes he needs to go back and practice all the spells in proper order this time. The interpersonal conflict of most episodes can pretty much be summed up as

Person A: You know, you shouldn’t do X

Person B: Haha sure (does X anyway)

(X has disastrous consequences)

Person B: Person A, you were right. I shouldn’t have done X. I’m sorry.

Or else the lesson-leaner will be like “At first I thought X. But you showed me Y.” Like word for word

Not to use another Dino Charge example (I’m not actually sorry) but like in the episode where Keeper used the tennis balls to demonstrate to Riley how he and Chase are on different paths to the same goal, that was actually a cool moment. And then in the next episode Riley used that exact same metaphor with the marbles to represent Sledge, Poisandra, and Fury, it shows us how he remembered that lesson and how it affected him without it ever being explicitly spelled out.

In the Dino Charge season 1 finale when Tyler is falling out of Sledge’s crashing ship, he’s fully prepared to accept that he’s going down with Sledge, but then when his friends catch him in the Megazord, he’s like “I knew you guys would save me!” And you know what? The other Rangers never find out that he was lying. You’re just left with the implications of that to think through on your own. Subtlety does work in Power Rangers, and I think it’s the thing that elevates it from a dumb cheesy kids show to something that people of all ages can enjoy.

After thirty years and thirty seasons, I don’t know if it’ll end after Cosmic Fury. But this is a fan prediction for 2024 or 2025. They release a two part movie like Infinity War and Endgame, where Lord Drakkon has brought forth/resurrected all Power Ranger villains from the thirty years and all the Power Rangers come together as a finale hurrah to save their worlds.

Also can they please redeem some likeable villains that deserve it like Wrench from Dino Charge. It would be awesome if Wrench becomes redeemed and a Power Ranger because he deserves it.

IOTA Reviews: Rocketear

The Rocketeer is a 1991 Disney movie set in 1930's America where a test pilot gets a jetpack and uses it to fight Nazis and— Wait, what? “Rocketear”? Oh, damn it!

Let's get into the eleventh (chronologically the seventeenth) episode of Miraculous Ladybug's fourth season: Rocketear.

We start off with Carapace and Cat Noir struggling to hold back some T-Rexes brought back to life by a scientist Jurassic Park style. Seriously, they reference the movie in the same scene.

Why wasn't this the plot of the episode again?

After managing to tame the dinosaurs with a whistle of all things, Ladybug notices something's wrong with Nino after he gives the Turtle Miraculous back to her. Apparently, he's wondering why Rena Rouge (who he knows is Alya) wasn't recruited with him today. Ladybug tells him that he was the only help she needed today. In reality, it's because Alya has adjusted to her new role of supporting Ladybug behind the scenes in her new form, Rena Furtive.

And I'm not a fan of the new form. I get the camo, but it doesn't really help her blend in when her suit is bright blue. I think it's based off the arctic fox, but that animal is able to camouflage itself because it's fur matches the snowy environment. I'm sure a bright blue jumpsuit won't stand out when she tries to blend in at all. Also, the fact that Alya can just change her hero form gives even less excuses as to why Ladybug's new form is only when she uses her Lucky Charm.

Alya is struggling to keep this a secret from Nino because they don't have a lot of secrets in their relationship. Marinette says she can kind of get it because she had to keep her identity a secret from her friend and has to keep keeping her identity a secret from everyone else. Basically, she's telling Alya to suck it up because this is what being a superhero is.

So the next time she sees Nino, Alya tells him she's no longer Rena Rouge, but not about Rena Furtive, which troubles her. The very next scene shows Alya showing Marinette pictures she took of her new costume and asking her which version looks better.

You could always try reviewing Akuma fights. I heard there's one blog that does it when they're not criticizing the famous director Thomas Astruc on social media.

Yeah, in case you can't tell, Alya was only able to rent her brain for a few episodes because she really doesn't seem as understanding about being a superhero as she was in earlier episodes. In episodes like “Optigami” and “Sentibubbler”, we saw Alya use more strategy and show discretion as Rena Rouge, seemingly taking her job more seriously, but then this episode just had to go and piss it all away. I also love how the first time the animators made Alya's skin the same when she's transformed is in a single frame for a joke.

Alya thankfully deletes the picture, but Nino overhears her talking about struggling to find more content for the Ladyblog, and decides to go to the movies with her to help take her mind off things. Nino, in turn, proceeds to give the same reaction to the in-universe Ladybug movie that Astruc gives to the PV.

Apparently, that movie's already getting a sequel and it has a teaser. So was the sequel animated at the same time as the original like Back to the Future Part II and Back to the Future Part III?

Nino gets pissed the next movie in the Ladybug Cinematic Universe will feature Rena Rouge and not Carapace... even though Rena Rouge debuted first. The teaser then shows Rena Rouge falling for Cat Noir (yet another creative liberty taken by the writers or something Astruc's self-insert threw in himself), and takes it like it's the real thing. Dude, the first movie said Ladybug was afraid of cats, and the director yelled at the person it was based on for judging it. He clearly has a hard time distinguishing fiction from reality.

Alya leaves Nino early so she can go on patrol, but Nino sees Cat Noir heading out as well. He then watches a video on the Ladyblog where Alya praises Cat Noir which is totally not Astruc projecting or anything.

I don't know what your definition of a prince is, Alya, and I honestly don't want to know.

So Nino takes this as evidence that Alya is in love with Cat Noir and decides to tell Adrien, who naturally laughs him off. And just before you think we have an episode where Adrien plays the straight man, Adrien decides to visit Alya because he's afraid he accidentally charmed Alya.

Yes, because Cat Noir is so charming, girls are just fighting over him, aren't they?

We then cut to a black and white film noir monologue by Nino (dressed like a detective with a fake mustache), who decides to spy on Alya. When Cat Noir asks Alya if she is attracted to him, she naturally laughs him off, though Cat Noir is thankfully a good sport about it, even giving her a hug to apologize. Unfortunately, Nino took this the wrong way.

The next day at school, Nino takes Adrien into his “office” (it's really an excuse to reuse the boiler room setpiece), and shows him the picture of the hug. Adrien says that Alya would never fall for Cat Noir because she's always dedicated to finding out the truth and telling her boyfriend everything. What's Nino's retort?

Okay, several problems with this bit. First of all, why would Nino even tell Adrien any of this? What would it accomplish? Why not say all this to Alya while confronting her about her alleged unfaithfulness? Second, Ladybug didn't give Nino and Alya their Miraculous at the same time until it was an absolute emergency. She outright said in “Hero's Day” that she didn't have time to recruit Nino and Alya separately.

Ladybug: I'm sorry for what I'm about to do. I know I'm revealing your secret identities but I don't have time to find a good excuse to give them to you separately. Rena Rouge and Carapace, I need you both!

Nino and Alya kept their identities secret from each other until then, with Alya even keeping the fact she knew who Carapace was a secret as well. Nino didn't find out because “they don't hide anything from each other” (which I plan to talk about later).

Other than that, I actually liked Adrien in this scene. It was really investing to see him try to justify the whole secret identities rule while Nino blatantly said there was an exception. This is the kind of stuff I wanted to see when it came to Adrien doubting Ladybug, not him destroying things in his anger.

While Nino rants about how Cat Noir “stole” Alya from him, Shadowmoth sends an Akuma his way, turning him into Rocketear.

And the design he has is just boring. It's just a blue jumpsuit with some black spots that look like teardrops, a teardrop-shaped head and a visor. I think the reason this season's been relying more on past Akumas and using more Sentimonsters is because DQ is terrible at character designs. I mean, compare this suit with Aigraon from Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger (his Power Rangers counterpart is Wrench from Dino Charge).

The design does so much more with the teardrop motif, giving him a perpetually miserable face with tear lines going all over his body. Add that to a more diverse color scheme, and you have a much more visually stunning design. And this was created in real life, not rendered on a computer. I'm not sure if this is a budget thing or a laziness thing, but if it's the former, you really need to do better, animators.

The powers are meh, giving Nino the ability to fling explosive tears at enemies. It's a clever idea, and it makes sense he gets a power that parallels Cat Noir's, but I think maybe it would have been more interesting if he couldn't control the tears at all. Like, imagine if he was constantly crying like Blue Diamond, and with every tear he shed, Rocketeer could send it at whoever he felt was causing him misery, mainly Cat Noir, all while serving as a metaphor for people who blame others for their own personal issues. Better yet, make him look like the detective outfit Nino wore for the second act. It would have made him more unpredictable instead of making his tears generic projectile weapons.

Marinette and Alya see the fight and transform into Ladybug and Rena Furtive respectively, the former summoning her Lucky Charm, a projector. Is it just me, or has this been happening with Ladybug a lot recently?

Back to Rocketear, we get a good moment where Cat Noir intentionally lets the Akuma hit him so he can get a chance to resolve things diplomatically. See, this is a moment where Cat Noir's self-sacrificing nature feels heroic and not selfish like when he does it without Ladybug's permission to spite her. Unfortunately, it doesn't really go anywhere as Ladybug shows up and plays the recording Nino took (Alya found his phone earlier), while Rena Furtive uses her Mirage to give the audio to what actually happened that night.

Rena transforms back into Alya and embraces Rocketear, who apologizes to her for his behavior. And then he just... rejects Shadowmoth's power while looking like it wasn't that much effort.

At least when Chloe and Alya did it, we saw them struggling for a little longer. I guess maybe it's because Nino is motivated by his love for Alya, but I think it should have been fleshed out more. So Ladybug purifies the Akuma, gives Nino a Magical Charm, and Cat Noir is still unsure about his feelings for Ladybug at the moment, though they still pound it.

Back in his room, Adrien ponders why Alya and Nino get to know their identities while he and Ladybug can't, but Plagg points out it's because she's the Guardian. It's brief, but I do like seeing Adrien start to doubt Ladybug's judgment, and it looks like it'll foreshadow future episodes. This is a problem I've had since “Hero's Day”, and I'm glad the writers are finally acknowledging this double standard. I just hope they don't end up blaming Marinette for whatever happens later on.

Marinette, of course, apologizes for what happened between Alya and Nino, and I have to say... yeah, no. It's obviously Nino's fault here.

Nino really pushed personal boundaries in this episode, much like Marinette's friends in “Gang of Secrets”. Yes, honesty is a valuable trait, but sometimes, people have secrets they want to keep to themselves. Nino's idea of “not hiding anything from each other” is somewhat controlling, like he's demanding Alya tell him everything whether she wants to or not. The fact that he immediately assumed Alya was cheating on him without giving her freedom to make her own choices doesn't make him look good. Let's be honest, a more realistic outcome would be Alya choosing to break things off with Nino or at least lecture him about how she can do what she wants and keep the secrets she wants. But instead...

And that's how the episode ends.

Okay, Marinette just said she trusted Alya to make the right decision, but I highly doubt she meant this. Marinette strictly said Alya had to keep Rena Furtive a secret, and now she's telling Nino this despite the risk? The whole reason Marinette and Luka broke up was because Marinette had to keep her secrets from Luka, but now it's okay for Alya to be completely honest? How is this not a double standard?

This episode was just dull, and there’s not even much I can really say about it.. There were a handful of standout moments, and the stuff with Adrien was somewhat compelling, but Nino's behavior was just insufferable and dragged the episode down. The Akuma fight was weak, only lasting about four minutes at most, and while the Lucky Charm was more creative this time, the plot was just frustrating. It's really one of the weaker episodes this season.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to watch the better Rocketeer.

Ranger Rankings - Power Rangers Dino Charge/Dino Super Charge

Spoiler alert - these two were really great.

Premise - 4.5

The Energems give the team a reason to come together, and to stay together until everything's sorted. We've already had multiple dinosaur themed seasons, but this one really uses dinosaurs as a backdrop even moreso than Dino Thunder did, right up to the very end.

The mythology around the Energems evolves nicely, and it feels like something that's constantly important rather than just relevant when the plot demands it.

The museum setting works really well (although how many people need to work in a café at once?) and the idea of an intergalactic bounty hunter has been played with before, but these seasons really go in on that a bit more.

The only problem I have is that they could have been a little more serialised in the search for the Energems they didn't have, a la Operation Overdrive.

Character Dynamics - 4.5

This season's characters are all so good, I don't even know where to start. Everyone's totally different, and they take a little while to get to know one another and grow into their own. But they're all totally formed characters rather than just bullet point character traits, and they're all believable too.

Everyone has an arc, even people like Kendall who only really comes out of the cave when she needs to yell at people initially, and it doesn't feel like the story's weighted in anyone's favour particularly. Even Tyler, whose quest for his dad feels super-important, doesn't override everyone else's stories.

I just really love these idiots. They're all so good.

Sixth Ranger Arc - 4.5

If we just limit this to Ivan, then it's probably a 3.5 or something. He's great, but he does fade into the background a little every now and then after his initial arc. He gets some fun spotlights though, and I liked the relationship between him and Koda as men out of time.

But this season had the most Rangers ever on a team, so the entire series basically becomes a Sixth Ranger arc, because after Ivan and Phillip (who turn up in quick succession) there's James, Kendall, and Zenowing to take into account, and with each successive Ranger the team grows stronger and has even more interactions to balance.

Phillip's probably the least developed of them all - he has his initial arc of learning not to throw money and things and not to be a pompous ass, but after that he kind of just shows up as needed for Sentai footage. He's a good guy, but he does become a little faceless.

James' plotline takes its time to get going, but I liked his interplay with Tyler a lot. They actually had plausible reasons for him to go off and do his own thing too, I'm glad they took the time to explain his absences.

And Zenowing, who I thought would be daft, was actually a decent addition to the team. He's again totally different to everyone else, and he does have a role to play rather than just standing in the background.

Oh, and Kendall becoming a Ranger and just taking it in her stride and no one questioning her on it at all? Yeah, we like that.

Plot Development - 4

I'm proud of these seasons for having plots that thread through both Dino Charge and Super Dino Charge rather than just closing everything down at the end of one to start something new. Samurai did it too to an extent, whereas Megaforce you could basically cut down the middle. Dino Charge and Super Dino Charge really do feel like evolutions of one another.

The search for the Energems is a good impetus to keep everything going, and it presents good reasons for the villains to keep going after the Rangers specifically so they can take them back, rather than just attacking the Rangers because they're in the way.

If anything, there can sometimes be a few too many one-and-done episodes where the villains JUST go after the Rangers, which stalls the momentum somewhat, but you can't say that the threat doesn't escalate as the plot goes on. Compare where we start with where we end and it's such a huge difference.

Villains - 4.5

I don't think I've had as much fun with villains in a season since Lothor or Dai Shi.

Sledge could easily have become one-dimensional, but his relationships with everyone else on the ship kept him interesting. I never knew whether he was going to yell at Poisandra or kiss her.

Speaking of, Poisandra was hilarious. Again, she could have been far too one note, but they made her interesting in her own right by giving her her own plans, and Curio, while a tad bland, was a good straight man for her plots.

I did get a little bored of Fury by the end, but at least they kept him relevant by having him face off with other generals. It's nice when the good guys get along, but it's better when the bad guys don't. I also really liked Wrench, who wasn't afraid to get his hands dirty even though he was the tech guy.

I do think Dino Super Charge has the better villains though; Heckyl and Snide were a good pair, and Heckyl's eventual face turn was actually a nice surprise. The idea that he wasn't evil at all until the Dark Energem was well handled, and while his redemption arc came right at the last minute, it did feel complete and earned.

I also really liked Lord Arcanon and Singe; they ran the risk of being too little, too late, coming in with only like 8 episodes of a season left, but they had history with the other villains that made them relevant, and Arcanon's overblown sense of self-importance made him fun too.

Overall - 4.40

Hottest Ranger - Oh god, this one's far too hard. It's like a four-way tie between Tyler, Chase, Riley, and Koda, all for different reasons. Stick them in a blender and give me the perfect Ranger.

Notable Episodes:

When Logic Fails - A crystal maze-esque episode which shows off Riley's unique talents.

Wishing For A Hero - The Rangers make wishes that all go terribly, terribly wrong.

Love At First Fight - Mostly for Beauticruel's terrible accent.

Freaky Fightday - Body swap episode? Body swap episode.

Edge Of Extinction/End Of Extinction - World-wide Zord fights! Time travel! A black hole! A happy ending!

I'd also like to mention how good all four holiday specials were. They're all clip shows, but they have such good, fun set-ups that they're not a chore to watch like the holiday specials usually are. Trick Or Trial was especially good.

Many years ago, the Keeper of the energems had 10 disciples: Sledge, his fiancé Poisandra, Curio, Fury, Wrench, Singe, Zenowing, his twin Doomwing, Heckyl and Snide. After crash landing due to one of Arcanon’s henchmen, Guardian made each disciple responsible of one of the hosts of the energem. After bonding with an energem, once the ranger meets one of them they would know who to protect. Each went their own way knowing they would meet again one day.

Animal Crossing Fish - Explained #83

Brought to you by a marine biologist with the winner again...

CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!

We had another vote and the majority of people wanted to see me cover Spinosaurus, the only true dinosaur we will be covering in these AC Fish Explained posts. But...why cover it at all? Well first of all, watch your tongue - dinosaurs are cool, so why not??? But also because, despite the fact that mostly all dinosaurs lived strictly on land, Spinosaurus and its relatives were well-adapted to catching fish and may have been great swimmers.

The Spinosaurus fossil comes in three parts that, by now, I imagine everyone who’s been playing this game since the pandemic began has gotten already. You might also notice that the fossil’s tail is already out of date! Science in action!!!

ACNH does a fairly good job (and I say fairly because there are some glaring mistakes in their tree of life) of keeping groups together. The dinosaurs in this section are known as Theropods, which were generally carnivorous, two-legged dinos (although there are exceptions) that eventually gave rise to the birds (so explains the connection on the floor between this group and the Eagle villager silhouette in the next room). Spinosaurus is credited with being the largest theropod dinosaur to ever live and yes, that means it was bigger than T. rex.

Dinosaurs in Family: Spinosauridae, which include the fishing dinos called Baryonyx, were great fisher-dinos. They had long, narrow jaws like we see in other fish-eaters, like ichthyosaurs, crocodiles, and dolphins, lined with teeth that were better suited to holding prey, like a croc’s, than slicing into flesh. Although they were also known to feed on other, small prey items, including young dinosaurs, they are uniquely known as fish-eaters. Spinosaurids are also famous for having giant neural spines, the bones that make what look like a sail on its back. No one really knows what the sail was for, or if it truly was a sail or more like a hump.

There aren’t really any complete skeletons of Spinosaurus; in fact, the whole genus is known from just a handful of specimens. The very first specimen of Spinosaurus aegyptiacus, the specimen I’m sure ACNH based its fossil off of due to the size and the shape of the “sail”, was also destroyed during WWII during a British airstrike to Munich after a Nazi director of the museum they were housed in refused to move them at the request of the discovering scientist, Ernst Freiherr Stromer von Reichenbach. (See what war does? True story. Wars and conflict have always hindered scientific discovery and continue to throw wrenches into conservation and collaboration.) Since it’s discovery, Spinosaurids have gone from being called “wading dinosaurs”, in which they stepped into swampy rivers and lakes hunting for fish, to being classified as dinosaurs who may have been adapted to swim.

There is great evidence to support a truly aquatic or semi-aquatic dinosaur, but the jury is still out about it. The suggestion that Spinosaurus used its broad tail to swim, in the same manner as a crocodile might, only comes from this year, 2020. Plenty of scientists, after reviewing the paper, don’t really accept it, but the fact still remains - Spinosaurids look an awful lot like crocodiles and it is widely accepted that they were fish eaters. Whether or not they lived as grizzly bears (living on land but coming to rivers and lakes to catch fish) or as crocs, remains to be proven.

Dinosaurs definitely dominated the land throughout most of the Mesozoic era, but science is still pretty convinced they never truly invaded watery habitats. Dinosaurs weren’t the only large-bodied reptiles of the time - watery habitats were already full of giant reptile apex predators, such as ancient crocodylians, plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, and ichthyosaurs. Not to mention, the ocean was already teaming with sharks and other fishy apex predators, like Xiphactinus. Doesn’t matter what time period you choose, there’s already a non-dino group in charge in all watery habitats. So, there wasn’t a lot of room or reason for dinosaurs to invade the water (so they were like, “fine, we’ll take to the skies”, and now they still exist today as birds). If it turns out Spinosaurus did, in fact, swim like this, it will be yet another discovery that completely changes the way we view these fascinating creatures called dinosaurs.

And there you have it. Fascinating stuff, no?

Take My Breath au - Roadtrip (Duscae)

Some bad, some good, some cute - and some of Sola terrifying the shit out of Ravus. @secret-engima because hey, we get to see Ardyn and Sola exchange words!

-Sola has to admit that helping Uncle Cor take out the Norduscaen blockade was cathartic (though the exasperated why me look he gave her after she walked in the front gate with the rest of the Retinue, glaive across her shoulders and she cheerfully announced that being the distraction was fun was completely unnecessary) and she’s in a much better mood as they wander through Duscae looking for more royal tombs.

-They pick up a couple hunts - including a damn behemoth so Prompto can ride Chocobos, but in the face of Prompto’s delighted expression no one can begrudge the blonde - and Sola heals a few people from what looks like poison. Black crawling through their veins that feels like a smothering, choking fog as Sola pulls it into herself. She frowns as her magic fights off the poison, but sluggishly, taking hours, even days where normally she’d be fine in a manner of minutes.

-It’s odd, but her magic beats it off as it does everything else, so Sola simply keeps her gloves on and jacket sleeves down to hide the black creeping up her hands and wrists. The others would only worry, and she’s fine.

-Until she’s not.

-Until the poison in her veins are creeping up her forearms, up her arms, and she’s vomiting up black goo almost every night. Fortunately, she has her own tent - as big as Gladio’s is, there’s no way to cram four people inside when three of them are six feet tall, and Gladio is... Gladio - and a decade of having hanahaki has taught her how to hide the fact that she’s getting sicker every day.

-In Lestallum, Sola crashes hard when they reach the Leville. She sleeps in later than Noctis even, and wakes up after Noctis has left with Iris to tour Lestallum. Ignis returns first, and it turns out that Pelna and Axis are in Lestallum and Sola takes the chance for an update.

-She even waves off the Chocobros when they go to find the next Tomb, instead going out to get takeout and finding a discreet place to have lunch and talk about glaive operations.

-Then lunch gets interrupted by that same silky tone Sola is coming to hate. She’s not the only one to react violently, weapons whirling through the air. Ardyn casually sidesteps them all. His casual remark that Sola’s finally found herself a Shield is met with a snarl from Axis, but Sola waves both Pelna and Axis down. They cannot afford to start a fight here - too many civilians, too many refugees that cannot afford Imperial attention turning to the city - no matter how much Ardyn deserves a knife to the kidney.

-Then Ardyn grabs Sola’s hand, pushing her sleeve up and revealing the black poison stark against pale skin before Sola can wrench her arm away. But Ardyn knows what this is, mentions that it is the Scourge her little brother is fated to defeat, even if at this rate Ardyn doubts Sola will live to see it. Pelna and Axis still dangerously, and Adryn leaves with a vague comment of wondering how Sola will go.

-Sola, Pelna, and Axis return to the Leville, where Sola pulls Jared aside and asks him to look into the Starscourge - and what happens to those who are infected with it. It means revealing her infection to Jared and making the man promise not to tell the others, because Sola can feel it now. She’s dying, and unless they miraculously find a cure, Sola won’t survive.

-Pelna and Axis are not happy. They argue with Sola when Sola refuses to divert Kingsglaive forces to researching the Scourge. She tells them that they don’t know if there is a cure, and it’s more important that they continue to fight the Empire. Pelna is named Second, and if when Sola dies, he will be Chief.

-Unfortunately, Iris overhears enough and bursts into the room to confront Sola about it. Sola sighs and lets Iris look at her arms with trembling fingers. She has Iris promise not to tell the others, because they need to focus on protecting Noctis, not her. Iris nods, and Sola kneels down to wipe away Iris’ tears. Especially because Iris sniffles that she’s going to leave her Shield all alone. The glaives blink down at Iris, and Iris sniffs again, this time in part offense and says that she’s not blind. Axis is Sola’s Shield, and... Iris hesitates before she quietly adds that he’s family too, isn’t he?

-Axis is still as a statue, and Iris babbles that he looks a bit like her grandmother, and he acts a lot like Gladdy and her father around Noctis and the king. Iris shuffles when Axis still doesn’t react, and she asks why he never said anything. Axis, faced with a crying kid, immediately switches over into dad mode, and he gently tells Iris that he’s a bastard. It would’ve brought too much scandal for both Lord Amicitia and Axis’ family if Axis came forward. Iris pouts, but she grew up in Insomnia and while she wasn’t involved in court, she was still trained, and so she doesn’t try to argue against what she knows is true.

-But Iris is also whip smart for being only 15, and Iris asks if they were worried about the Council forcing Axis to be Sola’s Shield. Axis blinks, but Sola smiles at Iris and confirms it. It’s why Sola helps Axis hide his ties to the Amicitia, because both Axis and Sola wanted it to be their choice. Iris nods, hugs Axis tight, before scampering off to help Jared and Talcott with their new research project. Because she doesn’t want either of her older brothers to lose their King/Queen.

-Sola is out with Pelna and Axis, finishing up reports and orders and plans (and telling them to send some of the Ornata over to Galdin Quay to find one Dino Ghiranze) when she gets a text from Ignis that they’ve returned from the tomb and are going to check out the Disk of Cauthess. Sola texts back and tells them to be careful of the Imperial presence in the area. Sola doesn’t worry when they aren’t back by nightfall - Ignis texted her to tell her that they’d rented a caravan for the night.

-Axis and Pelna, being absolute shits, stick Talcott on Sola babysitting duty before they leave. A duty little Talcott takes to with enthusiasm. Sola sighs, flips her two glaives the middle finger where Talcott can’t see, and proceeds to bow to Talcott’s every whim. Because she’s always been a sucker for kids. (Iris, the traitor, hides giggles behind her hands and cheerfully waves as Talcott drags Sola to wander around Lestallum. Sola won’t admit it, but the sunshine hurts on her skin, hurts her eyes and she makes sure to buy sunglasses. Sola refuses to give up sunlight, even if it hurts.)

-Sola abruptly worries a lot more about her little brother when Titan wakes up and throws a fit. Lestallum isn’t too damaged in the resulting earthquake, but the sight of the giant Astral is... an eye catching sight to be sure.

-Then the Chocobros return to Lestallum by Imperial airship, and Sola learns that they’ve been interacting with Ardyn. Sola snarls, because herself is one thing, but he is not allowed to meddle with her little brother!

-Without the Regalia, the group is forced to rent Chocobos to get around. Fortunately, the birds can cover more terrain than the car, and it allows them to avoid the sudden Imperial blockades that have cropped up. Sola splits off from the group in order to organize and lead glaive operations in blowing up the blockades and bases.

-And, well, Sola’s seen the way Ignis keeps glancing at her, and she’s worried that he’s starting to suspect that she isn’t as well as she pretends.

-Sola gets a call from Cindy pointing her towards Archeole base, where the Regalia has been impounded and waiting for shipment to Niflheim. Sola leaves Pelna in charge of wider operations, and takes Axis and two other glaives with her to meet up with the Chocobros just outside the base.

-Sola does not step into the Haven. She tried that a couple days back and it was not fun, Sola does not recommend. It means she’s now running mostly night shifts so she can sleep during the day, but she’s managing.

-Instead, Sola leaves the two glaives to coordinate with Ignis and the others while she and Axis sneak around to scout out the base.

-Night falls, and Sola and Noctis’ group infiltrate at separate points. They proceed to sneak around and murder their way through the base. Sola’s group focuses on taking out as many MTs and imperial forces as possible, while Noctis’ group heads for the main generator and the Regalia.

-At several points, Sola calls forth bursts of sunlight to disorient the mech sensors. It sears through her veins like nothing has before, but it’s the best option she has so Sola forces herself to continue through the pain.

-Frankly, Sola thinks Noctis calling down Ramuh to smite the generator is overkill, but the glaives are an Awe.

-Ravus has just pushed Gladio back against the Regalia when about two dozen weapons materialize around him. And Sola slinks out of the shadows, all predatory grace and lethal smile. “Hello, darling.”

-Ravus doesn’t dare move. Not with the blades pressed against his throat, against eight different spots that will kill him instantly if Sola wills it. With the two blades pointed at his eyes and the gun against the back of his head.

-He’s seen the power of a Lucis Caelum armiger. It’s not something he ever anticipated being on the other end of it.

-Sola’s almost a foot shorter than him. That doesn’t stop her from using the tip of her wickedly sharp blade to lift his chin. “Tell me, darling,” And Ravus has never heard an endearment sound so threatening, “why I shouldn’t cut you down where you stand?”

-He says nothing. There is nothing to say, no convincing reason he can give for Sola to spare his life. And Sola knows it. Her smile widens until it’s less a smile and more a snarl of bared teeth.

-“I’m afraid I will have to protest, dear Princess.” Sola twitches as Ardyn materializes behind them, but her glaive doesn’t move as she turns to glare at the High Chancellor. Thank the Six, that blade is uncomfortably close to his throat. “Lady Lunafreya will be most put out if her brother dies.”

-Out of the corner of his eye, Ravus sees Noctis wince. Sola however, is unmoved. “This is war.” Sola drawls, “Lady Lunafreya will understand.”

-“Let him go, and all of you will be allowed to walk free with your Regalia.” Ardyn promises.

-“Please, I’m not that stupid.” Sola scoffs. “I let him go, you’ll kill all of us.”

-“You have my word, you will not be harmed.” The Lucians give Ardyn dubious looks, and Ravus honestly agrees with them. After Insomnia, what Lucian would trust anyone from the Empire?

-“Your word means nothing.” Sola counters with a vicious smile, “Try again.”

-Ardyn tilts his head thoughtfully. “Oh? It almost seems like you want a reason to spare him, dear Princess.”

-Sola laughs. It’s the most chilling thing Ravus has ever heard.

-“Hardly.” Sola says. “But your attempts amuse me.”

-“Sola,” Noctis intervenes, voice quiet but firm. “Withdraw. We’re leaving.”

-A breathless moment where Sola is utterly still, before her weapons shatter into shards of golden magic. Her hand forms a shape, and Ravus suddenly spots the three figures waiting in the shadows when they move, forming a formation and waiting for Sola to join them.

-“As my king commands.” Sola intones. She fades back into the shadows with inhuman ease, sparing a moment to send Ravus a smile that sends shivers down his spine. “Until next time, darling.”

-Those words are going to haunt his nightmares. And Ravus prays to the Six that there won’t be a next time. He’s not certain he’ll survive it.
