I’ve got some cute little arts that I’ve done through out the week. I do have more but I will save them for later! Hope you fans enjoy some more Rolf and Kevin content 💖

Some cubism studies I did with dinosqaud characters

[dinosquad-central]

if caruso's a demon... does that make buzz an angel? can ms moynihan be a witch?

She can so be a witch!

I was gonna say Buzz doesn't strike me as an angel—punk guy who likes creepy crawlies doesn't really fit the standard angel archetype—but once I got thinking about it, I kinda started vibing with the idea. He loves god's smallest and most misunderstood creatures 🥺

I also suggest werewolf Max and psychic Rodger.

What about Fiona? Is Veloci also a witch? Wait no! Vampire Veloci!

Platonic Yandere Dino Squad Headcanons:

Rolf Maxwell:

• Max is the type of platonic yandere who acts like your and the squad's older brother. You need a snack? He has ten, did you need protein, calories, or a little sugar? You forgot your book at home? He has a copy, just don't lose it or drop it in ooze. You got caught out in the rain? Here, borrow his jacket, it'll keep you warm while he uses his umbrella to keep you both dry.

• He plans for a lot of scenarios, so be warned. He has a plan for if someone finds out your identity and it goes horribly; a plan for if you ever wind up homeless or without shelter; he has several plans where he or one of the others or Ms. Moynihan adopts you if you need a family or a better one; he even has a plan, just in case you try to run from them. It hopefully won't come to that, but... well, better safe than sorry.

• He makes sure you have a sport or game or book series to keep you occupied and learning new things. He has the whole team learn to play soccer and volleyball so you all can bond and strengthen your pack bonds, as well as exercise and test out new skills. Any books you like, he's making sure there's a copy waiting in the lighthouse or school library just for you.

• He will not let you skip meals. You are eating dinner with him and Ms. Moynihan, or with Fiona and her family, or Caruso's, or Rodger's. (He loves Buzz like a baby brother, but he knows the two of you would probably consider pizza or cereal or popcorn dinner. And that is not healthy, so ergo, he'll handle the Squad dinners with Ms. Moynihan). He feels his inner T. Rex preen when you praise his cooking skills, or eat something he caught or foraged for you.

• If you have bullies, they're handled and will never bother you again. No one mentions what happened to them, or why no one will speak of them anymore. All you have to know is they won't bother you again, no one will...

• In the end, you're like a little sibling to this 18 year old T. Rex. He loves you and the Squad and Ms. Moynihan, and would fight or die to keep you all safe. He knows that sometimes they do hard things for the greater good, but it's all worth it in the end if the environment and his family are safe...

Rodger Blair:

• Rodger sees himself as an older, smarter sibling to you and Buzz and Caruso. He's made all kinds of inventions, learned from their mistakes, and made them better than before. He's certain he can fix any problems that arise within or outside the team. Got a C- on your math test? He'll help you understand the formulas for it! Someone called you an ugly name or played a prank on you? He'll pay them back tenfold, teach them that you reap what you sew. You need help with cooking? Um... you'll both learn about it together! Soup is easy to make, or eggs, to start with! Time to look up recipes! He always feel great when you hug him afterwards, thanking him for helping you out. But that's what family does for each other!

• He makes all kind of devices for you and the team to track mutant dinos and save the day, but he also makes small trackers so he knows where you all are, and puts safety locks on the computer so nothing dangerous or inappropriate shows up. He makes sure you and the team practice internet safety, and follow the rules with what you can and can't put on the internet.

• Learning about things that interest you are important, and can help you understand the world around you better. If you want to learn more about bird species, he'll study it with you too! You want to learn about fungi? He and Buzz can watch that documentary about it too! You're reading up on the different species of dinosaurs? Count the whole team in! (It's good for all of them to support each other's hobbies and learning, and show they care about each other, whether they say it with words, or with actions)

• If a teacher is giving you a hard time, he smooths it over. You're doing your best, and they shouldn't be angry when you're doing all you can do. He offers to tutor you, and will also ask Ms. Moynihan to talk with them, maybe see if they can work it out...

• When he found out you were studying Roman history, he decided to help you make a mini trebuchet! It was fun helping you find the right materials, and putting it together, aaand then testing it on Caruso and Rump. It's sibling/team bonding, right? And it did pass the class presentation, so it's a win-win!

•At the end of the day, he's glad to help you learn new things and stretch your wings to explore. Of course, don't disappear on them now or make them worry, or he'll have to add another tracker (for just in case you did that)...

Fiona Flagstaff:

• Fiona sees you and Buzz as little siblings, viewing herself as an older, cool sister. If you need help trying new things, she's there to lend a helping hand. If it's swimming that worries you, no biggie. She'll help you learn to swim. If you never learned how to ride a bike? She'll show you the ropes, and let you test it out. You want to learn to bake cookies? She'll get you to join her family to make their Aunt Maura's famous, amazing, best-seller peanut butter cookies!

• She wants to make sure you stay healthy and exercise, but that you have fun, too. Her solution is to try different sports out with you, and help you find the one that's right for you! If it's soccer you like, she'll sign up too, and hopefully you can both be on the same team. If it's basketball that caught your eye, woo! You can both shoot hoops amd learn how to dribble a ball! You want to try swimming? Perfect, she can keep an eye on you, and bond with you as you learn this important skill (and it pleases her inner Spino, having one of her hatchmates in the water with her).

• If you're LGBTQA+, she will wholeheartedly accept you. You don't have to worry about her or her family turning you away. If your family did, or you're in the closet, or are scared, you can always spend the night with them, or she can drive you up to see Ms. Moynihan. She cares about you, and what makes you happy.

• She likes to race you, be it as dinos or on your motorcycles or at school during P.E. She likes the challenge, and thinks it'll keep you two having fun then, while it'll keep you both fast enough to run from Veloci in the future.

• If you win any awards, she is yelling and cheering you on the entire time. She will take pictures, and will want to celebrate with you and the Squad. She'll even ask her family if they can send a few of those peanut butter cookies with her to give to you! She appreciates it when you always cheer for her or encourage her, so she always try to return it in kind to you.

• In the end, she's happy to help you get out of your shell and help you have fun while staying in shape. She'd be happy to help you learn new tricks or to play new sports, and if she can, she'll join with you. Just don't think you can outrun or outswim her. She'll always find you, and she'll always win, eventually...

Erwin Caruso:

• Caruso views you as his best friend/little buddy. He can impart on you his knowledge of self-care and good fashion, while you can help rein in some of his... harsher in hindsight choices and actions. You're also a great listener, and you believe in him. So he really does appreciate it... He just hopes he doesn't lose your friendship, he doesn't know what he or the team would do without you...

• He likes to make sure you take care of yourself. No overworking or stretching yourself thin or having others take advantage of you! No! That would be HORRIBLE! So he'll be your best pal in remembering to put yourself first sometimes, and to keep yourself happy and healthy. Your skin is dry or itchy? Try this moisturizer, he uses it too, but don't tell anyone. You're tired at night but find it hard to sleep? He has just the tea for that, take it after dinner though, okay? You're struggling with your self-image? Oh honey, you're perfect! Honestly, no one could compare! (Except maybe him, but you're still his number one, next to himself and the Squad!).

• He enjoys taking you out for spa days, and is excited to tell you about his own brand of self-care products. If you have a favorite, he is all ears and will always make sure the lighthouse and his house is stocked with it for when you come over. He tries not to squee when you gift him a warm scarf for winter. (His inner Stego adores that he's being taken care of and kept warm by a friend or hatchmate, and will want to share the warmth with you and the others).

• You tend to pull him out of trouble or talk him out of bad decisions. The others are grateful for it, and everyone is glad for your common sense. Even if it means thinking it through or taking more time to find a better solution, Caruso and the others are relieved when your foresight ends up keeping them out of trouble.

• He tries to learn to be more thoughtful of others and to be a bit less gullible, meanwhile you try to learn how to take care of yourself and your needs. Dino naps and human naps are important, after all.

• Caruso enjoys hanging out with you, and even if he hides it or doesn't say it, he is glad to know you. He doesn't know what he'd do without you or the Squad, and would rather not find out or reach that point... so listen to him, listen to Max and Rodger and Fiona, listen to Ms. Moynihan, and don't leave! Don't make him ugly cry! Please...

Neil Buzzmati:

• Buzz sees you as a cool, chill friend. You accept him as he is, you don't ask for anything different, and you are cool with his pets. So he's cool with you, and counts you as a good friend and person.

• If you have a fear of anything, especially if it's bugs or scorpions or snakes, he'll help you overcome it. There is nothing to fear but fear itself. He'll let you observe his snake Winifred, and his pet tarantula, and a scorpion he's taking care of too, and let you see them from a safe distance. He'll slowly help you look at them closer, then closer, until you're ready to try and hold them. He'll be right there to make sure things go smoothly, and pats you on the back when you're done. That's good for you, friend. You overcame your fear!

• He likes to make sure you get to places safely. His appearance usually keeps away the wrong crowd, but he helps you with assertiveness and using your voice. If you say no to someone or to something, then no means no. If anyone tries to push you or tries to cross a line, he's putting them back in their place (and calling Max and Ms. Moynihan to handle them while he calms you down and takes you somewhere safer). He's got your back, the same way you've always had his.

• You help him overcome his fear of the dark. You and the squad have a sleepover, and you keep small lights on, slowly turning them off when everyone's asleep. In the morning, you congratulate Buzz, and have a pancake breakfast with him and the team. (Rump gets some fried bacon as a treat too).

• If your dino form gives you some trouble, he's there to help you conquer that fear or new obstacle, too. If you have a fear of heights but can fly or glide, he'll help you learn how to safely glide and how to safely land. He'll even fly under you in case you fall. If you have horns or feathers or spikes or other new parts to you, he'll reassure you that you'll figure it out, and the Squad and he will be there every step of the way. If you are a smaller dino, he promises they'll be careful with you, and make sure nothing hurts you when you're that small.

• Buzz enjoys having you as such a good friend and he hopes your fears don't scare you away from them. Even if they do, he and the team will always catch you if you fall, and bring you back where you're safe and sound...

Joanne Moynihan:

• Ms. Joanne Moynihan views you as one of her pack members, one of her hatchlings, and that means she will guide you through your new changes and your (now longer) life. She offers advice to you, and will try to teach you about the dinosaur you can now become. She's especially pleased if you're a type of raptor, wanting to bundle you and the others, her hatchlings, her dear nestlings, into a safe, warm nest, where she can keep her wings around you.

• She likes that you're so curious. She feeds it, nurtures it, and tries to make sure it doesn't lead you anywhere dangerous. But maybe she wasn't careful enough with what you were trying to find... or maybe somehow a secret you found spooked you, and made you shy away from her, from them... Either way, she plans to get to the bottom of it. Once she knows what you found, and knows what scared you so, then she can soothe that fear, and hopefully you'll come to your senses and not run from your pack...

• She enjoys seeing you and your hatchmates play. She's careful that no one is too rough, but if an accident does occur, she's there to clean any scrapes or lick any wounds. She knows that the others can feel the pack instinct, the need to stay close, to be warm, to huddle together under her and let her handle any danger or cold or worries. She just wishes you'd felt it more...

• She's aware you care for them, and she encourages it. She knows it can be hard to process emotions and feel safe when you've been rejected before, but she promises they welcome you, that they'd never abandon you. She's enraged anything could make you think that way! She will not tolerate anyone endangering her students, her children, her pack! She knows something you saw or heard or discovered must have made you nervous, or frightened, and maybe it made you fear her... but it will be okay. Once you're back with her and the others, she can help you through it and comfort you, and keep your fears at bay...

• She's upset that you thought you could leave. That is not acceptable or healthy behavior. She understands that you're young and you're uuncertain, but she is your Mothersaurus, and those are your hatchmates, and you need to stay where she can keep you safe. She misses when you'd snuggle into her side, or fall asleep with your head in her lap. Hopefully you can go back to doing that once you've had a good talking to and a bit of medicine...

• Ms. Moynihan does love you, as she does the others, but when it comes to you, she's worried you're trying to leave the nest too soon. You can spread your wings, you can explore, you can play, but you need to be where she can see you, and with the pack. She and the others will find you, and you will not be leaving again...

Victor Veloci:

• Veloci is someone who views you and the others as hatchlings, juvenile dinosaurs who need guidance, a better world, a better mindset, than what humanity has to offer. He adores the idea of seeing you all up close, of getting you to his habitats made especially for your dinosaur species, and looks forward to watching you all grow up healthy and happy.

• While he and Moynihan don't always see eye to eye, he respects her and still sees her as his mother, his caregiver, the one who kept him fed and warm and safe when the dinos still ruled, and when they met their end. He wants to make pack with her again, and he wants all of you to be a part of it. He will stop at nothing to have his perfect dinosaurs be part of his pack, be his to take care, and any human who stands in his way will become his dinner...

• He has ways of trying to find you. He can't let any of you go, not so young, not so vulnerable, not while humans rule and his kind, your kind, are gone... He won't have his workers look for you, no... this requires an actual dinosaur, or several, to do the job...

• You're a clever dino, he's proud to say. In the time of the dinosaurs, you would have given any Raptor or Tyrannosaur or angry Triceratops herd a run for their scales! You clever, clever little hatchling! But, you need to be among pack and inside pack territory, not amongst the world of man and machines and cruelty. You need a nurturing hand, a soothing nest, fellow hatchlings, and caretakers, not man. So you need to come out, or there will be quite the grounding for you, little one...

• He knows you're likely a little stunted on your instincts, the need for pack and familiarity and warmth, so he won't be too harsh. You just need to relearn a few things is all. Perhaps some medicine will help you relax while you're taken care of...

• In the end, Veloci will put you and the others as his top priority, and will do what he thinks is right. He will do what he can to bring back the age of dinosaurs, and even if you try to stop him, well... you really should watch out... he doesn't play fair, and neither do the others... Watch out, little one... they'll find you soon...

Monster Squad AU brainrot compilation post <3

@dinosquad-central

Ms. Moynihan's been around wayyyy longer than Veloci, and might have been the one to turn him all those centuries ago. Both of them are capable of hypnotism, shapeshifting, superstrength, and turning into fog, though Veloci is uniquely weak to the seed-scattering trick and neither of them handle sunlight or garlic well.

Vampires can eat really any kind of animal blood; Moynihan travels far every night to feed from as many sources to minimize damage, while Veloci enjoys human blood specifically because he enjoys draining people dry whenever he can get away with it.

Raptordyne the company is basically a) a front for Veloci's growing coven of vampires and thralls, b) an actual bioengineering company with focus in agriculture and livestock that innovates new technologies, new GMOs, and overall makes Veloci a lot of money, and c) it also runs regular blood drives! How fun!

That focus on agriculture and livestock isn't just to make money btw. It also serves as "preparation for the future" i.e. how Veloci plans to feed the "world of monsters" he's trying to create.

Nobody knows if the Kittery Point Vampire is actually real or just an elaborate fabrication for tourists. Nobody but Joanne Moynihan, who carefully maintains the delicate balance of being just noticeable enough to attract tourists without ever actually getting caught or hurting people.

Veloci’s ooze is basically a curse wrapped in slime. Maybe there’s some sciency stuff going on in it, maybe it’s more of a “magic is a kind of science” thing, either way the batch that the kids swim through was a rare fluke of success that Veloci hasn’t been able to replicate since.

Rump was already Moynihan’s familiar and thus already a little magic, but swimming through the ooze with the kids made him even more magic + able to sort of “match” what the kids are (werebeast, ghost&corpsedog, fishdog, hellhound, creachur). He also dove into the water to try and clear the ooze out there and didn’t mean for the kids to follow him (…or did he? He took Caruso’s jacket, after all!).

Rump’s attempt to “purify” the ooze is why it affected the shark differently to the kids despite being the same batch.

The squad becomes monsters slowly over a period of time. Caruso doesn’t notice because he subconsciously put up a glamour almost from the beginning; Rodger thinks he’s just having wild dissociation episodes until his ghost is hovering over his body; Buzz feels like his body is falling apart until his skin finally splits and the angel emerges; and Max and Fiona experience the partial transformations seen in the show until Moynihan stabilizes them. Either way it’s uh. Rodger and Buzz (and technically Caruso bc he did find out about his horns eventually) would like a refund bc that was horrifying.

They’re all lowkey panicking, slowly congregate together at the beach, realize they’re all going through changes (well. Caruso tries really hard to pretend he’s not but Buzz bursts his glamour on accident), and that’s where Moynihan finds them. She brings them to the lighthouse, stabilizes them, and then explains that they’re all cursed now.

Max & Fiona are the only actual shapeshifters in the group, shifting from human to monster form on a physical level. Rodger simply possesses and depossesses himself, Caruso’s got his glamour, and Buzz pilots/puppets a mannequin the squad found for him. He basically slots himself into a hole in the back and then a glamour sewn into the clothes make the puppet appear human.

Thus when Buzz “transforms” from human to angel he actually just. Pops out of the puppet. He does make it look cool though by making his wings appear first!

Caruso doesn’t need to have a transformation sequence because of the glamour but. Well. It’s Caruso. He’s got several different transformation sequences purely for the fun of it <3

The “failed monsters” that Veloci’s curse makes are unstable, a mess of flesh and limbs that’s thrown symmetrical structure out the window, and often deteriorate into slime instead of firming up into proper monsters. Like John Carpenter’s The Thing had a baby with Flubber that was fed only Eraserhead babies and raised by Uncle Fester Addams. Icky stuff <3

Same two-gun cure, but the Chiller sprays a magic antidote that destabilizes the curse and then the Spiller applies a stabilizing effect to return the now-uncursed victim to normal.

Peter is either another vampire or some type of chimera. Lieutenant Alpha is a vampire.

Caruso’s “true” form, an uglier and far more powerful demonic form, is straight up inaccessible to him until he can get over himself re: his vanity and need to look good. And even when he does use it once it’s still not something he can just call upon at will… nor does he really want to. Think evil goat with wings and attitude.

When Caruso comes out to his parents in “T-Rex Formation” (after spending the episode using his abilities to give all the other players misfortune while only boosting himself a little) they’re initially horrified because they think their baby boy is dead 😞 Caruso has to hurriedly correct that it’s a curse! He’s not dead! He’s just cursed! In the end his parents accept him <3

When Fiona comes out to her family in “Mole Lotta Trouble” they also accept her wholeheartedly. And also still make the “see! I told you so!” remarks. Except they thought she was the werewolf. Terry complains about Fiona stinking like rotting fish in her monster form.

Buzz can see the shrimp colors :] his senses are actually really weird; he doesn’t perceive visible light super well but can see/feel/hear just about the entire electromagnetic spectrum. He actually kind of sucks at healing until he gets a better handle on his senses and how to interpret them, but he’s really good at seeing through and popping glamours from Day One (Caruso is Not Amused).

Max is colorblind now, trading his red and green cones for yellow. In both of his forms :[

and then I think I had more but I cannot recall it off the top of my head + I don't want this post to get too long but. Yeah. Monster Squad (not to be confused with the 1987 movie of the same name LMAO).

[victor-veloci-simp-69]

Episode 1:

I've always loved the intro song ngl. A good intro song makes me love a cartoon. That's how W.I.T.C.H and Huntik got me

Fiona gets to class. Ms Moynihan says she broke three rules. She says this before Fiona bites her apple. Fiona then says that's only two and then misses her shot, making three. This inplies that Fiona either does this regularly, or that Ms Moynihan has some form of clairvoyance.

(The clairvoyance thing could make some absolutely fantastic fanfiction ngl. *writes that down* oooh, I have IDEAS now) anyway, back to episode

The fact that Fiona only took one bite of that apple bothers me

Oh man, that bio class room looks almost exactly like the one I had in high school.

Oooooh yaayyyy! Mah Boi is here!!! Stripey gay boi

Okay, first off:

This place looks like a giant OSHA violation.

Regardless of that (Peter, go fix this giant OSHA violation. Hey, maybe that's why we never see him again, he's too busy fixing the questionable workplace) those scientists look properly enriched.

WHAT THE FUCK ARE THINGS IN THE TUBES THEY LOOK LIKE THEY'RE FROM BEN 10 I SWEAR TO GOD THAT LOOKS LIKE SWAMPFIRE.

On that note, why do we never see Veloci's creepy test tube creatures??? His scientists worked hard on The Horrors

The one on the pink test tube looks like the rose from beauty and the beast

Is that a fucking rail track. I think I remember that one featuring in an ep, but I could be wrong. If I'm right then why was the continuity placed here and not on anything else???

"I got into business to swim with the sharks, not be eaten by them"

Me: Oh, you're declining it? Unexpected.

Peter: I'm in!

Me: ???

That bit of dialogue has always thrown me off. Its the clunkiness.

Bye Peter. It was nice to meet you.

"Break into your usual groups". The dinosquad comes together but kinda acts like they've never interacted before.

Max and Roger seem like they've teamed up before tho.

Caruso at 4:21 is barefoot. He has shoes on at 4:26. We know he had no time to put shoes on and off and on because he's barefoot when he leans over and drops his jacket. When he picks it up he has shoes on again.

...why did they all (I understand Caruso getting his jacket and Buzz getting thrown in) go into the water????

Roger says "nah, I ain't getting in" and then not only gets in the water but throws buzz in.

(The fact that Roger throws Buzz in the water which later results in him becoming a Dino is a great angst fic waiting to happen. If Roger hadn't thrown him in, he would still have been living a normal life)

Ms Moynihan shows up and goes " I thought I made it clear no one was to go in the water"

First off, that was never shown on screen and I don't like that

With the context of dinosquad as a whole, this kind of implies she knows Veloci is dumping his nuclear jizz in the water

I guess it could also be because she didn't want wet students on the bus, but still.

Wait. If no one was suppose to go in the water, and there doesn't seem to be an area with tide pools, then Caruso's stupid sushi list is even more useless since fish don't count.

Anyway, MY BABY RUMP!!! BOOBOO! I LOVE YOU BABY! MY BABY!!!

Hnnngg sexy library I wants please I will crawl into my computer just let me at that library I can live with dinosaur shenanigans. (But can I live with redoing high school? No.)

"Young man, if you don't remember, this is a library 😡 "

My brother in christ, what horrors have you been through that you hear a dinosaur roar and conclude that that is the sound a normal teenager makes naturally.

Caruso's jacket gets shredded. He immidiately blames the dry cleaners. Bro, it was whole when you put it in your locker. What

Fiona gets a tail and it sticks out her truck window. My good bitch, how did you not feel the cold air on your tail???

The fact that Buzz waves his arms while playing video games is kinda adorable

The fact that Ms Moynihan showed them what happened telepathically leaves a lot of possibility for her to leave certain things out and show them only what she wants them to see and think.

And besides that, its also kinda fucked up. There are implications here. My brain is a little fried to parse them all, but there are implications. I know it.

Ohhh!! The cave has a light source! That implies that there are two entrances, which solves my age old question of how tf did they get out of that cave.

Oh holy shit. Young Ms Moynihan is HOT

...she looks a lot like Caruso. Hmmm. Formulating THOUGHTS tm

You think that (if the story she tells is actually true and not her lying to hide a bigger truth that she doesn't want them to know about) Ms Moynihan and Veloci gained the ability to transform because of. Idk. Space radiation or something?

Cuz your genes don't just. Mutate. For no reason. This backstory feels fake af. I think she just lied bc she knew her students knew fuck all about biology and would believe anything

Why did ms Moynihan change foreheads. Did she want to be inclusive and touch everyone's forehead or is she afraid their brains can only handle so much... or did they refuse to hold hands like she asked and now she has to switch foreheads?

"You're a vicious Carnivore!"

"I've moved past that but there is one who hasn't: Victor Veloci"

Might be because I'm getting back into twilight, but this gives off major Vegetarian Vampires vs Normal Vampires vibes.

In this case, Ms Moynihan is Dr Carlisle Cullen and Victor Veloci is Aro Volturi.

"What do you believe?"

Ms Moynihan: "Humans gained dominance because brute force lost out to reason...and love. That's why I parted ways with Veloci long ago."

I smell a Secret. I smell Tea. Spill. I can practically hear tragic dramatic backstory. Was this a "I fell in love story" or a "Veloci didn't care about me" story. Ms Moynihan sounds bitter.

Also, the sheer contempt in her voice when she talks about Victor Veloci. Say what you will about Dinosquad, but it has some pretty good voice acting sometimes.

Max: "I don't want to be a dinosaur"

Ms Moynihan: this is bigger than you, this is about saving the world.

"Can you cure us?"

"Yeah"

Roger: "But I want to stop Victor Veloci :( "

Ms Moynihan mentally: *nevermind, ya'll are too stupid to help me save the world. What was I thinking*

(Genuinely a very confusing arguement. People changed opinions so quickly damn. Not even a line space in between)

"I can't afford all the fancy tech Veloci has" <takes them to her lighthouse filled with huge computers and monitoring equiptment> hmmm. Ms M, I'mma assume you banged some rich bitches in your time and inherited, because no way can you affort a lighthouse on a teacher's salary.

Conclusion: Ms M is loaded.

"The cold forces the Dino DNA to the skin as it seeks warmth" um. That's ominous. It makes the DNA sound like a living parasite. Ugh

Ms Moynihan definitely faked "curing them". She is way too calm about the situation. She was very insistent on them helping her fight Veloci before. And the fact that she could cure literally everything else except for them is sus.

That Megalodon shark was trolling ngl

Veloci sees Fiona as dino: this can only be bc of my experimental dna...or....

That 'or' implies things. Ms Moynihan things.

The fact that Veloci sees the Dinosaurs but not the squad turning into dinosaurs the dinosaurs. Like, by the time Ms Moynihan jammed the feed several transformations have already taken place

Veloci ending with his ominous ass "can't wait to find out more about my new dinosaur friends" is so fun. Love him. Dramatic ass fuck. Ominous. Very sexy.

[heich0e]

Ooh will you pls walk us through your perfume/body wash/lotion collection?

fun fact i actually use gentle/unscented body products so all of my body wash/soaps/lotions/etc are not (or are negligibly) fragranced! my derm put the fear of god into me abt how it can irritate your skin, and since switching years ago i just haven't gone back! i like that it makes whatever fragrance i'm wearing smell cleaner and less muddied too. (my shampoo/conditioner/other hair product is fragranced so that still has a scent, so does my deodorant, and my laundry detergent. w that many scents happening on a regular basis i feel like there's rly no need for scented body cleansers imho.)

[jellofangy]

Lol isn't it so hard sharing your favourite things to personal people in your life when your brain is 80% low self-esteem, inner embarrassment and anxiety?

Since these are the only ones I couldn't find reblogs of (believe me, I've tried), I'm posting these from my old Wayback Machine spree. The second one was described as "older entomologist Edd".

Original artist is raecordon, also went by MsArduousFieldWorker/GeezumCrow on DeviantArt.

Trick or treat!

And for your treat, headcanons!

The squad’s favorite parts of halloween

Ms. Moynihan: Seeing all the little kiddos dressed up in cute costumes. She’s been around for millions of years and still can’t resist cooing when she sees a fat baby dressed as a pumpkin. It’s a classic! It’s just too bad she never gets trick-or-treaters at the Lighthouse, not that she can blame anyone for not wanting to scale a cliff on the off-chance of candy—besides, even though she always has the porch light on, the light at the top is much more attention grabbing.

Max: The parties. He goes to one every day on the week leading up to halloween wearing the same basic-ass costume to every one (one year he just wore his football uniform). He loves the excuse to hang out with tons of people and eat chocolate and dance to “Thriller” and “The Monster Mash”. Really he just loves parties in general and holidays are a great excuse to have them. He even likes taking a carful of his drunk friends home when he inevitably gets dubbed the designated driver since he doesn’t drink.

Rodger: Putting up Halloween decorations with his family. He and his brother spend hours putting out fake tombstones and carefully arranging sticky-spiders across the garage door. Not to mention rigging a motion-activated fog machine to play spooky noises when it turns on to freak out trick-or-treaters.

Caruso: Dressing up! He spends months slowly preparing multiple different costumes, one for school, one for the squad’s get together, different ones for different halloween parties. He spends hours doing makeup and putting on all his accessories for his elaborate costumes. And he loves it. Somebody take this kid to a Ren Faire.

Buzz: The excuse to binge all the horror movies he wants. His mom hates horror but she indulges him around Halloween and plans to be out of the house or taking a long bath while he watches every Saw movie in order… again.

Fiona: Used to really love trick-or-treating and kept going out even after people said she was too old for it, using her younger sister as an excuse to go door-to-door and get candy and see all the cool decorations. When Terri decided she was too old for it, Fiona lost her excuse, so now she goes over to Buzz’s house to eat candy and watch horror movies on the day. Max and Caruso both invited her to parties but she wasn’t interested.

+ Bonus

Veloci: Terrorizing pitiful human children. They never expect the old “Let me get my candy bo—AGHHHAAAAHHHH I AM BECOMING A MONSTERRRR!” routine, and transforming into an actual velociraptor really sells it. He gets great satisfaction watching them run away screaming down his driveway. He doesn’t even buy any candy.
