Today’s Exhibit of the Day features the Komodo dragons in the Museum's Hall of Reptiles and Amphibians, as seen on 35 mm film! The current hall opened in November 1977. This retro photograph shows a Museum preparator hard at work on the gigantic reptiles—clearly demonstrating their enormous size! At 10 ft (3 m) long and 200 lbs (90.7 kg), the Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis) is the world's biggest lizard. In this scene, one Komodo dragon is beginning to eat a wild boar.

I was at a funeral for a friend, who doesn’t exist in real life, and after the ceremony and burial we all went to their house in order to collect their things to which they apparently had a pet komodo dragon who could talk that started attacking me specifically and screaming at me to tell them where their owner was. To which I woke up from the fear.

Big boy Xavier

God Xavier is awful. I hate Xavier so much. He put Amanda in needle pit. Mean to her. Fuck that guy.

For Xavier, I picked a Komodo Dragon!

I thought it would fit for him bc in saw 2 when he’s hunting the other victims in the nerve gas house reminded me of how Komodos hunt their prey, by biting them and following them until they collapse from blood loss due to a declotting agent in their saliva.

I was also influenced a lot by his quote which I included on his page, “it’s just me and that’s how I like it”, because while komodos do group up on occasion to take down large prey it’s still every man for himself rather than actual cooperation.

Komodos are also so cannibalistic that they’ve evolved to live in trees as youngsters so the adults don’t eat them. It’s a similar case for most reptiles but Komodos especially.

I believe in canon that John lied about the nerve gas, although it’s not confirmed. I believe he actually poisoned everyone EXCEPT Amanda and Daniel, because those two are the only ones that never show symptoms for the supposed gas, not even bloody noses; this would also explain why they had to fight for an antidote to inject into their blood. Even jonas in the film points out that gas inhalation can’t magically be cured by an antidote, so I feel the nerve gas was a lie.

In this au all participants would’ve been injected with XAVIERS saliva, except Amanda, Daniel and Xavier himself, who’s immune to his own venom. Xavier would be injected with a different poison, while Daniel and Amanda would still be completely fine. Xavier’s antidote would be behind the door that he’s to unlock in the needle pit scene, since he throws Amanda in and causes himself to fail; he’d be screwed. Even if he escaped the house, killed amanda and daniel, he’d still succumb to his own poison.

Amanda knows his predicament after the door locks and she attempts to drag out the time he spends chasing them so he weakens more.

Y’all, I have begun rewatching Secret Saturdays because I possess free will and I never actually truly finished the show. Anyway, I’ve run out f people to talk to it about so why not the void?

Komodo is my favorite son, up above is him in his little jacket from ep 4 and I love him, he’s great. He looks so stupid and he’s so fabulous.

The thing about Secret Saturdays that has me knawing at my insides the most tho is the dynamics man, the personality and depth each Charecter has regardless if they’re a dinosaur bird or a regular human being. I could talk about each Charecter for ages! And I’m only 4 eps in!! My bones are shaking and I am filled with enormous joy, my braincells have latched onto this stupid cartoon like a gator going for a death roll and I am here for it.

Highly recommend, 10/10 show, can be found on internet archive.
