Another Gareth/Speckles Interview!

Team Dino are back…and so are the stats! Four years of watching the world fall apart; Three years of writing about it; Two social media bans. Don't like talking about those! Where can we possibly go from here? Gareth and Speckles reunite for a one-off super event…Another Gareth/Speckles Interview! I'm still trying to figure out the point to all of this - Speckles the Tarbosaurus.

Come back to reality they said. You'll be much happier they said. (Gareth a Vessel.)

Damn that. Don't make me happy. You won't like me when I'm happy. (White Dino a God.)

Embrace the madness. Because in the end it's all they've left us with. (Time's Arbiter a scary God.)

Gareth - It's the strangest thing. I was going over all that had taken place here and I thought…Suspended from Twitter. When the hell was I even on Twitter? Isn't that just a mobile phone app?

Speckles - I think one the advantages of being the White Dino is that your mind can repair itself quite fast. No matter how great the trauma. That's not to say it wasn't very painful but we never intended for X to be the Speckles Project incarnate! It was just a means to an end!

Gareth - I also made some terrible misjudgements in 2023. It may be that there are no rules in the world of FanFiction, but on X you have to be very careful about what you say. And making all those statements about Dinosaur Gods and Tarbosaurus souls crossed a line.

Speckles - Yes, we are very sorry if we caused upset to the actual real-life Dinosaur community of Earth. We honestly didn't think anyone was looking at our rambles! Much less preparing for our hearing! It wasn't pleasant but we don't blame anyone but ourselves.

Gareth - One more thing I should not have done is add so many hashtag links to GodOfDinosaurs and WhoIsTheWhiteDino. Yes, this started with that teaser trailer for Speckles 3 but the hashtag thing was never specifically about Twitter…it was just all social media in general.

Speckles - The human mind is shaped by these three things…Reality/Movies/Dreams. But how do we know which is which? I think there has to be a membrane of sorts that separates these things so humans can function in everyday life.

Gareth - I'll tell you this much. On that ill-fated day of September 1st 2020, the barriers in my mind came crashing down and in that moment…Speckles 3- The Return Of Blue-Eyes was as real to me as the other two Speckles movies. This is honest truth, I really thought Speckles 3 was an actual movie and my brain short circuited.

Speckles - It was a moment we will never forget. Gareth sat at his computer dazed and scared, looked at the keyboard then the monitor and thought…For God's sake I have to make this real somehow before it kills me.

Gareth - That seems like forever ago. I am the same man in the same room where all of this began and now it feels like none of it even happened! All this writing, the pain and confusion I worked through, FanFiction always working and then not working, going on Twitter, getting kicked off Twitter…I still don't know what is was all for?

Speckles - Me too. I'm still trying to figure out the point to all of this? But in the end even I am just an amalgam of the character Speckles from the two Dino King movies mixed together with Gareth's inner thoughts and fears. And of course…Inner-Dinosaurs!

Gareth - The White Dino and Time's Arbiter. They are me and I am them. For the longest time I was terrified that if I merged or destroyed them I would be effectively killing myself. So I kept bringing them back and back and back until the whole process felt normal somehow.

Speckles - Look, G. All of this is very interesting but I have to move this on now. Two years ago we sat at this exact spot and wrote Speckles 7 together. At the end you basically promised to never write another story about me. I very kindly did not eat you, and still this goes on…?

Gareth - Oh, I am aware. The only answer I can give to you…is that this is life. It too never ends. But, I have to accept that there are no more stories to tell between us. Now I am looking at the Speckles Project in terms on numbers rather than emotions.

Speckles - Yes, let us do that. Your original profile has 12 segments, this one now has three. That's 15 in total. The Dino King page on FanFiction can handle 25 stories before going into page two territory and we definitely don't want that!

Gareth - No we don't. I will try my hardest to leave it as is now. What else can one expect to find at the top of a Speckles Fan Page…You and Blue-Eyes of course! It's a bit obvious…but the one we all answer to really did NOT want a Christmas Tree at the top so we changed it!

Speckles - There you have it readers. Myself and Blue-Eyes will be looking out over this place for as long as it lasts. And with that, I honestly can't think where else we can go with this thing? The world is a very messed up place, if you ever need somewhere you can seek comfort it is here.

Gareth - Aww, very touching. It is past time for me and White Dino to take a more background role in the world. This was always too big for me to handle alone, so rest time. Well, for the vessel. White Dino never stops yapping EVER! Try backing out of a blood oath you make with your own subconscious!

Speckles - These are the deals we make with our Dinosaurs I suppose. Gareth and White Dino found their paths. Now…Go our dear readers. Make some deals with your Inner-Dinos. Just watch what you say on Social Media…not as free as it presents!

This is Speckles the Tarbosaurus and Gareth the Tarbosaurus saying…

Goodnight sweet dinos. Come see us in your dreams.

Speckles - I wonder how long FanFiction will work this time?

Gareth - Beats me. The bloody place has been on and off more times than those silly lockdowns!

Time's Arbiter - Oh, for Christ Sake. Are these two still at it? Terribly sorry, we'll be having some very stern talking points shortly.

Keep calm and don't forget to vote…AGAIN!

This has been a Gareth and The White Dino production.

Now celebrate your Inner-Dinosaur. Or run screaming from it as I should have done!

Deleted Scene.

Deleted scene from Dino King Christmas Special...

"Alright guys. We have to get this right now. It is an official Christmas song in the charts!"

"And 1..2..3..altogether…"

"Away we go"

"Our precious loves"

"With our aching hearts"

"Leaving our essential rest"

"Leaving our world behind"

"Our loves"

"Away we go…"

"You know I think we are getting better at this." Blue-Eyes says to Speckles.

"Too right." Speckles replies. "This is the END CREDITS SONG from our own damn movie!"

"Beautifully done you two." The White Dino speaks. "Even now it tugs at my heart strings!"

"And one more thing…"

The scene suddenly cuts to a "We are currently experiencing technical difficulties" card.

FOUR months without Story Stats. You suck FanFiction Admins!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all at Team Dino. What will 2024 bring…?

Amendment...The stats are back for now! Thanks for your hard work FanFic Admins!
