#dinotrix

The answer is yes.

It doesn't matter what it is. It will Trix.

Polytrix? ✅ Fishtrix? ✅ Furrytrix? ✅ Horsetrix? ✅ Monstrix? ✅ Dragontrix? ✅ Birdtrix? ✅ Sharktrix? ✅ Mertrix? ✅ Alientrix? ✅ Ghosttrix? ✅ Demontrix? ✅ Angeltrix? ✅ Vamptrix? ✅ Werewolftrix? ✅ Piratetrix? ✅ Cowboytrix? ✅ Dinotrix? ✅ Bugtrix? ✅ Kaijutrix? ✅

At this point, Trix isn't a genre.

It's a force of nature.

Give it scales, fur, feathers, fins, hooves, horns, fangs, wings, or tentacles—it will Trix.

The only real question isn't "Will it Trix?"

It's "How hard will it Trix?"

Go ahead.

More dinotrix bc I cannot stop myself, not for Prehistoric Polytrix this time just Dinotrix

okay, so Jurassic Park/World AU

Rumi is the younger Indominous Rex that they said the one in the film ate

They lived together for a while but they removed Rumi once they noticed the older Indominous getting aggressive with her

it would’ve been a waste of money from a corporate perspective to leave her in there and let her die ya know

(Miyeong and Celine in corporate? Miyeong made the decision to move Rumi out? Maybe)

Mira is a young Tyrannosaurus Rex that InGen created to replace Rexy once she died, since she’s really old by JW

Zoey is a descendant of Sorna’s feathered velociraptors and was brought over to Nublar for reasons I haven’t decided yet. Maybe she was too accustomed to/interested in humans and was in danger with the other raptors? Probably another result of corporate Miyeong

They’re all being raised in the restricted area, relatively close to each other

They can all smell each other so they get used to each other’s scents even though they’ve never seen each other

Mira roars a lot bc territorial and also. she’s trying to get the other two to come to her, cuz they don’t smell like threats and she wants to meet them.

and Mira’s certain she has the best territory, so they should share hers instead of whatever they currently have since it’s surely subpar compared to hers (corporate really values their t-rexes, since they’re the money makers)

Zoey wants a pack so she escapes and runs towards the scents she recognizes and ends up in Rumi’s paddock

Rumi is so confused, she has no idea what this little feathered thing is, but it does feel familiar for some reason and… doesn’t seem like a threat so… it can stay?

Zoey follows Rumi all around her paddock, chattering, and Rumi expected to be annoyed bc she’s used to silence but no? It’s actually nice having another being to talk to.

Mira notices that their scents are now coming from the same place and roars more to try to convince them to come to her territory

Eventually Zoey escapes again to check out Mira’s paddock and meet her and then report back to Rumi if they should listen and move in with her

Mira is so excited to see Zoey for the first time

Zoey agrees with Mira that her territory is much better than the one she used to have before moving in with Rumi and Rumi’s since it’s is still too small for the still-growing Indominous Rex

and Zoey heads off to convince Rumi to move to Mira’s territory with her

somehow no one has noticed yet that the raptor has escaped her paddock and moved to another one and is planning a jailbreak for their admittedly forgotten hybrid

the older Indominous is bigger and more scary-looking according to corporate so they just. don’t keep as close of tabs on Rumi’s paddock as they do on the older Indom’s (not that those tabs are terribly close either) since they want to exhibit the larger one

the only one corporate keeps a close eye on is Mira bc she’s their second Rex and she’s very important to them (for money)

Anyway the only people who notice all this going down are Miyeong and Celine but. They aren’t hurting anyone so it’s fine.

Miyeong cares more about the animals than the money and Celine does whatever Miyeong wants

Miyeong watches via cameras that no one ever checks as Zoey returns to Rumi’s paddock and they communicate and Rumi keeps looking at the paddock door and towards Mira’s paddock

Miyeong throws caution to the wind once it seems Rumi’s made a decision and opens the paddock door remotely

Rumi looks so confused. and scared. but she does leave the paddock. Slowly

Zoey leads her through the woods to Mira’s paddock, chirping and chattering the whole way

Once they get there, Miyoeng opens Mira’s paddock door as well and lets them inside

Rumi is scared, bc what if Mira doesn’t like her??? Zoey assures her that she will and everything will be fine

Things are in fact fine. Mira could tell from Rumi’s scent that Rumi wasn’t a normal dinosaur, so she was expecting something weirder than a bigger Rex with long arms

Miyeong closes all paddock doors and lets Masrani know that their younger Indominous is now being raised alongside their Sorna raptor and young Rex. He’s so confused but also. Miyeong wouldn’t do anything that would hurt the animals, so sure. Maybe he can set up a camera once they open the older Indom’s paddock to the public and livestream them or something

then the older indominous escapes and all that happens

once they realize the park is going down, Miyeong and Celine start making plans to take the trio off the island and move them either to some other island or like. a mainland sanctuary? idk

they get them off and everyone lives happily ever after and the girls never have to worry about the eruption of Mount Sibo bc they’re already off-island and thus don’t have to deal with any of the sequel films events bc no one even knew the trio survived the eruption let alone was already gone. Celine is very good at covering things up.

idk about plot im just throwing stuff into the void

I forgot about Bobby in the initial post so

okay okay so Bobby in the JW Dinotrix AU

he was a keeper for Rexy before Miyeong requested he be moved over to the restricted area to take care of Rumi and Zoey (Mira had other keepers at the time)

Bobby was the first to realize Zoey had escaped her paddock since he saw her in Rumi’s during a feeding

he immediately alerted Miyeong since he reports directly to her about Rumi and Zoey

Celine got access to the genetics records for the Indominous project and found out about the raptor dna and told Miyeong who decided that Rumi and Zoey living together would be good for both of them

Zoey loves Bobby; she always gets so excited when she can see him in the observatory/catwalk above the enclosure

one day, Bobby loses his footing on the catwalk while feeding Zoey and falls in

he’s freaking out, but Zoey is so so excited; she runs up to him and nuzzles into him and chirps and chatters

Rumi comes by at the sounds and just stares at Bobby in confusion. He’s the nice squishy, what is he doing in here? Zoey explains that he fell in and she’s getting to say hi which she’s wanted to do for ages

Rumi looks at the catwalk, Bobby, catwalk, Bobby, catwalk…. lowers her head to Bobby’s eye level, looks back up at the catwalk

Bobby is so scared, but he nods, “Y-yeah, I… I need back up there…”

Rumi lowers her head even more. Bobby is confused. Zoey hops onto Rumi’s head, and hops off. Looks at Bobby expectantly

Bobby hesitantly approaches Rumi and puts a hand on her head. She doesn’t move. Bobby approaches her neck to find a better foothold to climb on her head. Rumi allows it all.

Bobby manages to climb up and Rumi rises, very slowly. Lifts her head up as far as she can. Gets incredibly close to the catwalk. Bobby manages to pull himself back onto the catwalk. Rumi lowers herself to a more natural position and blinks slowly at him before wandering off. Zoey chirps before running off too.

Bobby is so confused. He was told to be careful with the Indominous, but that was… weird, right? Not normal dinosaur behavior at all. What got put in that hybrid’s genetic makeup that makes it act like that??

Bobby reports this incident back to Miyeong and Celine. He's just happy to be alive. (This is the event that gave Miyeong the confidence to open the paddock doors to let them live with Mira later.)

once the duo moves in with Mira, Bobby stays on as their keeper and becomes one of Mira’s as well

Bobby meets Mira at some point and Mira doesn’t attack him either. Bobby’s the only one who can actually go into the shared paddock while all three dinosaurs are awake. Others can go in while Zoey is awake since she loves humans, but Mira gets aggressive with anyone other than Bobby, and Rumi gets easily spooked, and she’s too big for that to be safe for the keepers to be in with her.

When they all move off-island after the park falls, Bobby came with them to keep taking care of his girls.

again idk but I do like the idea of Bobby falling into Rumi’s paddock at some point during a routine feeding and gets helped out by Rumi

OH BOY AN ASK ABOUT THE NEW IDEA LETS GO TIME FOR THOUGHTS

Rumi is nervous at first, since she knows from Mira’s roar that Mira is a large carnivore and the last time she was around a large carnivore it was the older indominus who wanted/tried to kill her

Mira is so so excited when she smells Zoey and Rumi coming towards her territory. She starts b-lining towards the paddock gate to meet them as soon as possible

she gets there after the paddock door has been opened by Miyeong and Zoey and Rumi have entered and her immediate thought is “oh, she’s not that weird-looking, I was expecting way weirder” about Rumi cuz she knew Rumi was some mix of species via her scent

Rumi is submissive at first, doesn’t want to anger this other larger carnivore. she doesn’t want to get attacked again like her sister the older indominus did

Mira is practically vibrating in excitement over them finally being here, but she recognizes Rumi’s nervousness and does her best to reassure her that she’s welcome here

it takes a while for Rumi to get used to everything, since she’s used to a small enclosure with little sound other than Zoey so hearing all the squishies (humans) working constantly and hearing Mira’s heavy footsteps spooks her sometimes

she gets used to Mira’s footsteps pretty quickly once it really registers in her brain that she’s safe here

Mira leads them all over their new territory, to her favorite watering hole, to her favorite spot in the forest to sleep, to where they feed her her goats and cows

Zoey adjusts quickly, running off to watch the keepers work at some point

the keepers were terrified at first bc that’s a raptor in the rex paddock oh god it’s gonna die isn’t it

and then Mira lumbers up and nuzzles Zoey and the keepers are even more shocked

Rumi’s camouflaging herself in the trees, watching

she’s too nervous to come out and interact with any squishy other than Bobby

After terrifying the keepers, Mira tells them to explore to their hearts content since this is also their territory now

Zoey takes that offer immediately and runs off again

Rumi takes longer to go off alone, but eventually she does, and she finds a nice pasture that is perfect for sunbathing

Sure she could climb but when you have a super tall friend who will carry you it's a real treat. It's a nightmare for the handlers because now Zoey has giant minions.

Zoey LOVES climbing on Rumi’s snout and Mira’s back. And they love letting her. They admittedly can barely even feel her when she’s on their backs, so they need to be careful not to lose her. They sometimes still lose her because they walked by one of the lower parts of the wall and Zoey jumped off to explore the keeper areas.

It really is a blessing for the keepers that Zoey loves the squishies and doesn’t want to eat them, cuz if she wanted to kill, she could kill. Easily.

What kind of enrichment do the girls have? Does Zoey do those pet puzzles or some raptor equivalent? Mira us meant to be a big public draw in so are they trying to give her enrichment that makes her good for public viewing? Does our girl still not buy in and rebels lol?

What can they do for rumi? She doesn't seem to like people or other creatures aside from Zoey andMira, Bobby. Do they have her chase things? Does she do some kind of training to keep her active?

okay, okay, enrichment stuff. this is filling my prospective zookeeper heart with joy. get ready for many bullet points. As a disclaimer, I have only ever worked with small mammals, reptiles, and birds and am applying what I know, so it might not be perfect; it should be close enough though. Enjoy!

I love the idea of Zoey having food puzzles

She has a dog ball toy (the ones with the holes, like in planet zoo) that requires her to twist it open and her favorite way to get it open is to stick her sickle claw into it, bite, and pull

She can also stick her claws in and skewer the food inside or roll it around until the food falls through the holes but she finds it more fun to twist it open

Keepers will also release pigs sometimes for the trio to chase (like for the Raptor Squad in the film)

Zoey usually catches them but Rumi is also really good at ambushes so she catches them on occasion

usually Rumi and Mira let Zoey catch it because it makes her so happy and she gets all proud of herself and prances around, cawing in victory

Rumi likes catching the cows when they’re released into the paddock

She camouflages in the treeline and then strikes, pushing the cow to its side and puncturing its neck with a claw to make its death quick

she’s a predator but that doesn’t mean she’s going to make her prey stuffer unnecessarily (unlike the older indominus)

they release the goats for Mira to chase down and eat bc that’s part of the Rexy show and they’re planning to have her take on those duties once Rexy passes

although that plan might be a bit… complicated now that she lives with a raptor and the younger indominus and clearly doesn’t want to live without them ever again and the raptor can get into worker and thus likely guest areas so so easily

Bobby has been doing training with Rumi and Zoey pretty much since he started as their keeper, so they’re clicker trained (to a degree, Zoey sometimes ignores him to go exploring)

Mira starts joining in when she notices bc she’s curious

it’s more fun than she expected. and she gets snacks out of it if she listens. so worth it. she doesn’t always listen though. Bobby wasn’t expecting her to listen at all, so it’s still a huge deal.

Mira’s keepers have tried to flare train her like Rexy is (basically just having her follow the flare), but they’ve never managed to get her to respond. They’re shocked when she responds to clicker training.

they also have larger versions of Zoey’s puzzle toys for Rumi, since she has incredibly dexterous hands for a dinosaur

she masters them so quickly. like, only a few minutes after being given a toy for the first time, she’s figured out how to open it or how to get the food out without having to break it

Mira doesn’t care much for puzzle toys. Unlike Rumi and Zoey, Mira has very short arms and can’t really interact with them the same way.

She loves watching Rumi and Zoey play with their puzzle toys though

the keepers put in a lot more logs and rocks and durable toys for Zoey to climb on and play with when she moved into the paddock to keep her entertained and hopefully out of the keeper areas (it doesn’t work)

they also put novel scents into the enclosure, I’ll say once every week, like some shed feathers from their feathered dinosaurs or shed scales from their mosasaurus (they use drones to get those) and sometimes stuff like dog hair

also, because I’m really good at them, BOX ANIMALS

everyone thank Miyeong and Celine for forcing InGen/Masrani Global to provide money for enrichment, bc JW doesn’t seem to do much for most of their regular dinosaurs

Sunbathing! She found the perfect clearing for it when she went solo-exploring and she does it every day. It feels very nice on her scales. And she didn’t get to do it much in her previous paddock because it was mostly forest, like the older indominus’s is.

A very close second is cuddling with Mira and Zoey in Mira’s favorite spot in the forest.
