Mrs. Bowman to Kenji, who's about to get married: Today, two families are becoming one.

Ben, in an ominous voice: Two families enter, one family leaves.

Sammy, worried: That sounds so threatening...

Darius, with his hands outstretched like a camera frame: The Wedding Games.

Brandon: May the bouquet toss be ever in your favor.

Kenji, wryly: Beautiful.

Mrs. Bowman, rubbing her forehead: I should have stopped at one.

Day # 8!

Two out of three Bowman brothers 🥹

[jupitersrising]

Fair warning, the last section (December) of Brand Bowman's Guide will be a bit shorter than the other chapters.

Read chapter 7: here

[clockwards]

actually the only reason roxie and dave believe darius' older brother when he says the kids are alive is because they've met them and know they're fucking insane

[iaf]

You ever think of the Bowman family for more than 10 minutes and its just–

Damn, this family can fit so much angst into it.

The First Thing I'll Do....

Spoilers for season 5, remember in season 1 on the monorail the kids were talking about what they missed at home and what they'd do when they got back? Well, I wrote a quick story about it.

This is the first time I've tried to write a story involving texting as a main plot point, so just bear with me. And you can probably figure out who's who. Enjoy!

. . .

The first one came a week after the gang got home, not to Costa Rica, but once the doctors deemed them healthy enough to leave for their real homes. Jurassic World had provided each teen with a new phone as an “I’m sorry for leaving you for dead on the island” gift.

It was so random, no one knew what to think of it:

Track Star: Um, Sammy? Why are you hugging a cow? 

In the group chat Sammy had sent out a picture of her hugging a brown cow with a black face. 

Farm Girl: Remember when we were on the monorail? Yall said what yall’d do first when yall got home… Well, this is what I did! 🐮

Super Star: OMG! I FORGOT ABOUT THAT!

Dino Nerd: me too.

Jungle Boy: How do you even remember that?

Mr. VIP: Hey, is that Bessie?

Farm Girl: Yes it is! I’ve missed her so much, I went straight for the pasture before dad pulled me back to the house to see mom and the others. 😁

Mr. VIP: Only you, Sammy… 

Farm Girl: Ok, now yall have one week to send your pictures, or I’ll come take them myself!

Another picture popped up, this time, Brooklyn was hugging her coffee machine, smiling like a lunatic.

Super Star: Done! Who’s next?

Over the next week, the gang kept sending their pictures, the next one being Darius, his V.R. Headset pulled above his eyes as he held the controllers and smiled at the camera. 

Dino Nerd: turns out the jurassic world video game isn’t as scary as it used to be.

Jungle Boy: Yeah, running from real ones will do that to you.

The next day, Ben held his fanny pack, now clean, up. On the table in front of him sat a small water bottle, an open first aid kit, a small flashlight, a carob bar and juice, a small pad of paper with some crayons, and some folded paper towels.

Track Star: Ben… do those band-aids have dinosaurs on them?

Jungle Boy: They glow in the dark, providing another source of light!

Mr. VIP: Of course they do.

A few days later, Yaz sent a picture of her in her new running gear, lined up with a few other kids on a track. On her face was a smile, her eyes full of determination.

Track Star: Mom and the doctors won’t let me run very far, but a few of my track buddies let me sneak into their 100 yard race earlier.

Mr. VIP: Did you win?

Dino Nerd: just be careful of that leg.

Track Star: Yeah, I know. And yes, I won.

“Hey, what's got you so happy?”

Darius looked up to see his brother, Brand, walk into his room. “The gang and I are sending pictures of  the first thing we said we’d do when we got home, it’s nice to see everyone so happy even though we’re so far apart.”

“That’s great Darius, but then why does Kenji look so sad?”

“What?” Kenji asked.

“Well, all week you’ve had this look that, I can’t really explain it other than you look sad.” Brand explained.

“Yeah Kenj, I’ve noticed it too; You ok?”

Kenji looked between the two brothers, and faked a smile: “Oh yeah, I’m fine! It’s just that, I said the first thing I’d do was go bowling in the basement. But I can’t do that now, so I have nothing to show the others.”

Darius and Brand shared a look, “Kenji-”

“Really dude, I’m fine.” He stood up to leave the room, “I’m just getting a snack, you want anything?”

“No thank you,” Darius sighed as his new brother left the room.

Once he was out of hearing range, the remaining brothers began to make a plan.

. . . .

“Ok, where are you taking me?” It was the next day, and Darius and Brand had practically pushed Kenji into the family’s car.

“You’ll see when we get there,” Darius said mysteriously. 

“Or, you could tell me now?” Kenji suggested, “Seriously guys, this feels suspiciously like kidnapping.”

“How do you know what that feels like?” Brand asked from the driver’s seat.

“What? Didn’t you guys go through anti-kidnapping classes when you were little?” He asked sarcastically.

“Uh, no.”

Kenji seemed shocked, “really? Then how did you avoid being kidnapped?” 

“Stranger Danger?”

“Common Sense?” Brand looked up, “we’re here.”

Kenji still couldn’t see where he was, until he opened the door and read the sign. “You brought me to a Mexican restaurant?”

“What? No,” Darius turned Kenji around.

Kenji’s entire face lit up, “no way…”

“I know it’s not as fancy as your private one, and no way are we going to let you win, but-”

Kenji interrupted Darius by pulling him and Brand into a hug. “It’s perfect!”

A few minutes later the group chat updated, this time Kenji was holding a blue bowling ball in front of their bowling lane, he was smiling like a ninny and looked so proud.

Farm Girl: Good for you Kenji!

Track Star: I was wondering when you’d post.

Super Star: That's so sweet!

Jungle Boy: Why’d you pick an 8 pound ball?

Mr. VIP: Shut up Ben!

About half an hour later another picture showed up, this one was a scoreboard reading: Capt: 98, Dino: 104, B-man: 90. And then Darius’s phone said:

Dino Nerd: Brandon here, I totally let them win, just so you know.

Mr. VIP: Is that why you keep changing balls and yelling at the pins?

Dino Nerd: Shut up Kenji!

. . . .

I hope you liked the story, I wrote it in like 15 minutes, so it might seem a little sloppy. Also, I am still working on my other story, if anyone here knows that one, writer's block stinks.

I hope you have a great day!

IF I DON'T SEE THEM ONCE IN CHAOS THEORY SEASON 2 I WILL RIOT !!!

Thinking about what would have happened to Dave and Roxie after season 1 of JWCC (all headcanon/speculation)

I feel like they both would have gone home with a lot of survivors guilt and trauma. Like holy shit, not only are did they lose their jobs, they also have the blood of six kids on their hands.

Roxie would blame herself. Camp Cretaceous was not her first choice when it came to working for Masrani, but she was young (i’d like to think that they were both in their twenties) and prepared to work her way up to a more desirable career. She was always the more responsible counselor, sticking to the rule book when things became unstable and all else failed. It was Roxie’s decision to meet with Claire Dearing and request more staff, and she genuinely thought she was being a responsible adult by shoving aside her pride and admitting that damn, being a camp counselor was a lot harder than she thought it would be. She just wanted to make sure they could guarantee the kids’ safety, because it was more than evident that her and Dave were NOT capable of handling Camp Cretaceous on their own. She never anticipated to be sitting in a waiting room for hours. She never anticipated the rest of Masrani’s staff turning a blind eye to her concern for the kids. And she sure as shit never anticipated the entire resort falling apart in a matter of hours. And yet, despite all of that, Roxie couldn’t shake the feeling that it was HER fault that the kids never made it off the island. She left them on their own (which, side note, was extremely irresponsible of her) and because of that, she couldn’t save them.

Dave would blame himself too, but I think he would be more pissed about how awful Masrani Incorporated handled the situation. Unlike Roxie, Dave actually WANTED to be a camp counselor. He liked kids. He thought it would be a fun job. Of course, he was absolutely prepared for some things to go off the rails—that’s how life goes. What he was not prepared for was the complete lack of care that the rest of the Jurassic World staff had for him and Roxie and the kids. Camp Cretaceous was treated as a joke, an afterthought, which made it almost impossible to figure out activities and other camp stuff to make the experience SOMEWHAT enjoyable for the kids. And when everything went to shit, he and Roxie tried SO HARD to get help; to get someone—ANYONE—to listen to them. And nobody gave a shit, because these were six teenagers out of thousands of tourists and staff members, and their value was reduced to numbers on a spreadsheet. When it got to the point where Dave and Roxie had to literally STEAL a park vehicle to go find the kids on their own, that’s when he lost all faith in the higher-ups. By the time he got back to the mainland, he was angry. Angry at the JW staff, angry at the ferry, and of course, angry at himself for not doing enough.

Neither of them were able to face the kids’ parents. Dave sent some guilt-ridden emails, but completely closed out of that account soon after they were sent so he wouldn’t have to see the replies. Roxie avoided it completely.

Roxie, guilt ridden, sunk into a deep depression after they got back to the mainland. Dave, angry and bitter, became a shell of his former self.

If anyone has any additional thoughts/interpretations I would love to hear it! 💕

kentrosaurus and sinocerotops for the jwcc/ct ask game! (this is mangosaurus from my main btw ^_^)

Haii Mango :3

1 - Kentrosaurus

tbh (and maybe because I’m biased) probably the E-750 plot line and like — the entire premise of Chaos Theory. The Scorpius Rex led to some really good moments between the characters, plus led to Yasammy, and is probably the closest in plot we get to the movies. I also like how it gets introduced the first season, a thing I only just realized after rewatching the show. It’s also the only other time really where the Nublar Six truly feel like they’re in danger. Same reason I love the plot for Chaos Theory !! Like the whole the Mantah Corp. Island plot line never made me worry for the campers outside of revealing how much trauma Isla Nublar gave them — so the stakes were really low for me.

I just really love when characters have their mortality tested ,,

2 - Sinoceratops

There’s not that many to choose from if I’m being honest, most side characters we see end up dying, but if I had to pick: probably Roxie or Brandon. Maybe even the Gas Station owner in Chaos Theory because he’s the absolute goat /hj I don’t know, I tend to lean towards the Nublar Six more, so maybe that’s clouding my judgement.

Darius: Have you ever had a little brother who was the son of an evil businessman who nearly killed me?

When Brandon moved those leaves only to bump into a big dinosaur

All I could think of was 'Welcome to my life" by Simple Plan

[mistressvera]

[paranormalplanet]

Kenji: Darius won’t come out of his room!

Brandon: Just tell him I said something.

Kenji: Like what?

Brandon: Anything factually incorrect.

Kenji, shrugging: If you say so.

Darius, arriving moments later: Did you just say the sun is a PLANET?
