He grew up reading Super Threehorn comics waaay too much.

Why is Petrie's imaginary friend a sharptooth?

Moving on to "The Hidden Canyon."

You know, Stop the Seed hardly looks like a fair game for the Gang, considering that the pinecone is almost as big as Ducky and Petrie.

That's a pretty cool-looking cave! (Though I sure wouldn't want to be in it: claustrophobia!!)
I'm annoyed that they just recycled the term "tree sweets" here. These new tree sweets have literally nothing to do with the old tree sweets...come on!

The animation of Petrie right before they start singing "Good Times, Good Friends" was obviously reused from the Stop the Seed scene, so he's suddenly back in the valley. ("Nobody's gonna notice," they thought.) And Spike's dance in the same scene--haha, that's the most mobile he's ever been in his life!

When even Spike feels too full at the end of the day, you KNOW something's wrong. Mrs. Swimmer is suspicious, indeed, and for good reason!

It's a little odd that only Screech and Thud entered the valley. Up until now, I had the impression that they didn't go anywhere without Red Claw. Get 'em, Grandpa Longneck!

Those supposed fast biter prints have no sign of a raised toe claw. *Sigh.*

Petrie: "We leave now! Me scared!" Petrie's default reaction in this show is fear: confirmed.

Littlefoot: "We made a big mistake."
Ducky: "It is more than an oops-eeps!"

I think it's a bit weird that some bad-smelling fruit is enough to keep sharpteeth away. This makes them seem more like animals than intelligent creatures, which isn't consistent with LBT V or "Escape From the Mysterious Beyond."

Is it just me, or does Redclaw seem like he's barely doing anything in the battle scene? I feel like this whole battle is kind of lazily animated--we already know this show can do better based on some of the previous episodes.

Ha--look at Red Claw trying to wipe the fruit off his nose with those little arms!!

I feel like having Red Claw literally running away from some smelly fruit was a bit much. Could've had him leave without making him looks that silly/weak.

That giant rock hovers in the air for a minute after Grandpa Longneck and Mr. Threehorn push it.

I can't believe Mr. Threehorn actually called himself "old." I have the feeling that if anyone else described him that way, they'd be dead!

Well, that's it. This episode was pretty "meh" in my opinion. It didn't really give any interesting development to anyone. In fact, it never focused on any specific member of the Gang at all! Plus, the sharpteeth were poorly used, and then there's the laziness of reusing the term "tree sweet." I mean, the episode wasn't horrible--it was okay and all--but not really a favorite of mine.

I envision in this RP we will be using LBT physics, but then we are going to defy those physics because of the Rainbowfaces and their powers. This is gonna be in the Great Valley, Mysterious Beyond, and Beyond the Mysterious Beyond! We will have dinos in space, but no need for space suites, we will see mysteries and supernatural happenings. Its gonna be quite the ride!

I'm really loving this idea, it's such a cool concept! But...

Let me know when each of you are ready:

Wait, what? Sorry, I'm not there yet. I think it would be a good idea to get some kind of plan down first. We can't just jump in, start writing random stuff, and expect to create a coherent story. I've tried to do just that with fanfiction before, and it results in the kind of mess that's only desirable in a crack RP (which I'm thinking wasn't what you were intending for this). I mean, I only had to spend a few minutes exploring the Role Play board in order to find an RP that exemplifies the amount of discussion necessary before even getting started: Sudden Change of Species 2.0.

For starters, we need to know what brings the Rainbow Faces back to Earth. I'm definitely open to suggestions, but an idea I had (that I've also been considering for fanfiction) is that certain monuments within the dinosaur world, such as Threehorn Peak and Saurus Rock, didn't occur naturally but were actually built by some mysterious intelligent species. (Possibly other alien species that once visited Earth? Or maybe ancient ancestors of the Rainbow Face species, like they evolved from normal dinosaurs but left the planet once they became advanced enough, leaving the areas they once inhabited to be reclaimed by nature?) I haven't yet thought of what purpose these structures would have actually served, but there could be something about them that attracts meteorites made of some kind of volatile matter--this is why the "Stone of Cold Fire" landed on top of Threehorn Peak in LBT VII. This time, though, a new stone lands on top of Saurus Rock, so the Rainbow Faces have to come investigate. I dunno, let me know what you think or what kind of ideas you guys have.

Love this idea!! You guys know I'm in!!

I could be the other Rainbow Face, or if someone else wants to use her (since I already stole her in the Yellowbellies RP ) I might put an OC Rainbow Face in there somewhere. I'm pretty flexible! I'd be happy to take a character from the Gang, too!

You can have the Female Rainbowface, any member of Gang you’d like and if you want to make a character.

Awesome! Hey, let me know if you guys want to call dibs on any members of the Gang before I choose one of them.

This RP will allow for some major defying physics at times, and will include some mysterious womders.

I'm loving the sound of this more and more... I'll be thinking about stuff we maybe could add to this!

You are banned for trying to steal secrets from RainbowFaceProtege. I'll tell you one secret, she has the power to send you Beyond the Mysterious Beyond.



...or maybe even higher

Shhhhh...


Gentle Sharptooth, you are banned for converting this discussion into RP fuel!

Heh...I don't know much of anything about RPs, since I'm super new to this, but I just kinda noticed that we seem to be divided between two different plots. @Goldenwind and @Gentle Sharptooth are mostly playing the characters in the Mysterious Beyond while @Little Bro and I are the characters in the Great Valley, and the two locations don't seem to be interacting with each other much. I'm kind of having a hard time figuring out where to go from here, though maybe I just haven't chosen a very workable set of characters. I suppose I could do something like have Cera sneak back into the Mysterious Beyond (with friends) once night falls, or are the yellowbellies going to be entering the valley sooner than that? Sorry about all my befuddlement.

food.

First option is too gross, so I'm gonna have to go with the melon and hope the bump isn't that big.

Would you rather have lunch with Spike or Chomper?
