A Dino King Christmas Special.
Hello everyone. White Dino here. As this has been the strangest of years for Team Dino, we thought we would go out on a high and write an actual Dino King FanFic! Things seem pretty dark with our Twitter exile and the stats going forever. But true hope never dies. It is just reborn. We are proud to present…A Dino King Christmas Special. It's a chicken suit - Speckles a Tarbosaurus.
Where Do We Even Start?
December 25th. 2023. Around Lunchtime. A writer sits at his desk. He was The White Dino. He was Time's Arbiter. Now, he's just a regular person who went through a VERY irregular experience. What was supposed to be one Speckles FanFic turned into over three years of who knows what?
Gareth hears a loud knocking at his door. A familiar chill appears at the back of his mind. He descends the staircase and opens the front door. Before him stand two figures he knows only too well. It is Speckles and Blue-Eyes in their human forms! Quite what the two tarbos look like in human form is up to the reader to decide. For they don't look like any person I know in reality!
"Oh My God guys, it's you again. What an unexpected treat. I thought we would never meet again after our last encounter?" "Well, er, after we trashed your house and rebuilt it, we thought we better give you some space." Replied Speckles. "Plus our numerous visits were getting quite costly Gareth. The repair bills and presents were starting to stack up!" Retorts Blue-Eyes.
"I understand." Said Gareth. "But please come in anyway. I've had the house Dino-proofed since then!" The two of them enter the house…what wonders await our favorite dinos?
A Very Dino Christmas Dinner!
The three of them sit around the kitchen table. Once, a very long time ago this had been the scene of White Dino's 44th Birthday! "Before we get started, shall we be expecting Junior?" Gareth asks. "I'm afraid not." Speckles replies. "He is now the busiest dino in our time. He runs Humanity Park and oversees the time of Dinosaurs."
"WOW. I'm so glad things worked out for him." Said Gareth. "No one deserves it more." Said Blue-Eyes. "We are so proud of our son. Now we can retire until our next rebirth."
"Before we start dinner can you do me a favor?" Asks Gareth. "Certainly." Speckles replies. "What do you wish for?" "In this house you can now be as you are. A Tarbosaurus, not a human. I would consider it an honor to dine with the Dinos. So to speak." "Oh, we hadn't expected that." Spoke Blue-Eyes. "My love has a very dry sense of humor…!" "It'll be alright my love." Replied Speckles. "I am sure Gareth will not mind…"
With a blinding white flash the two of them turn into their dinosaur forms. Gareth has seen this many times but is still overwhelmed by it. In his home at last, it is the Mighty Tarbosaurus Speck..the Mighty Tarbo…the Might…
"Speckles. What the hell is that you're wearing?" Asks a very disturbed Gareth?
"A HA. It's a chicken suit." Laughed Speckles. "Yes, I can see that. And you are wearing it WHY?"
"Well, as we understand it, your culture consumes an awful lot of bird life on special occasions." Spoke Blue-Eyes. "And us being distant relatives, I wore this silly outfit to honor their sacrifice." States Speckles. "Oh. Awkward!" Said Gareth. "But I am sure the chef will not mind. Let us begin this magnificent feast…"
"But, let it be forever noted...The first sit down dinner between Dinosaur and Man...The guest of honor turned up dressed as the MAIN BLOODY COURSE!"
Some Time Later…
Just Desserts!
"Bloody hell. I'm stuffed." Spoke a very full up speckles! "Indeed." Replied Blue-Eyes. "And I thought eating other dinos was filling!" "Glad you liked it." Said Gareth. "Now…it's dessert time!"
"Oh God no." Speckles and Blue-Eyes say together. "Perhaps a break and a Coffee?!"
"Oooh, I know." Said Gareth. "Christmas Crackers! It is a tradition in my time. But I may have to do the deed as your Dino arms might be too small for it!" "Nonsense G. Our arms may be tiny and mostly for balance, but we can do many things you may not know." Said Speckles.
Gareth and Speckles pull the cracker together. With a tiny snapping noise, it breaks in half…
A gift and a joke fall onto the table. The gift is however, a plastic mustache! Not much can be done with it! The Joke however, is for Gareth to read…
The Joke.
"Er, okay. What does an election have in common with Aliens Versus Predators?" Asks Gareth.
Speckles and Blue-Eyes look at each other confused.
"Whoever wins…We lose!" Gareth laughs but the others have no idea what it means.
"Don't worry guys. When you've lived on this planet as long as I have, it makes perfect sense!"
"Oh, don't worry G. I still have access to that damn vision you sent me back in November 2020. All elections divide and confuse. I'm sorry your time has to keep going through it." States Speckles. "I'm sure it will all make sense on the end." Said a sympathetic Blue-Eyes.
With all that out the way…The three of them have good old sing…Dear God!
The Carol.
"We wish you a merry Christmas"
"We wish you a merry Christmas"
"We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year…"
I am Gareth. I am White Dino. I am Time's Arbiter. Together we are WhoWasTheWhiteDino!
All the best from Team Dino. Who won't be seeing you on Twitter any time soon!
Goodbye Dear Readers.
The Finale.
"So what next for the great White Dino?" Asks Speckles. "Simple. I really am in the process of moving house. It is time for someone else to occupy this room that I have been going mad in for FOUR DAMN YEARS!" "Ooh, a house move in this current time?" States Blue-Eyes.
Speckles and Blue-Eyes look at each other then back to Gareth. "What could possibly go wrong?" They say together!
When Junior comes for us, then we will know peace.
Goodbye and thanks for almost four years of your time!
See you in 2024 my fellow Dinos. G and WD.
