Was the palaeontologist Gideon Mantell? Or Richard Owen? Or O.C. Marsh? Or E.D. Cope? Or Bob Bakker? Or Jack Horner (a.k.a. He Who Shall Not Be Named (he was JP's 'scientific advisor'), or John Ostrom?
Studying everything is a wonderful dream. I wish I had the time to! As it is, I must confine myself to molluscan evolution :D

I think it could be fun to make something that's a similar horrific corruption of cuteness, but if one wants to go that way one should make one's own cute thing to start with. No ruining childhoods that way.

It really did involve two constellations inexplicably having sex. I don't know how that was supposed to work, nor do I want to. Can't fault 'em for creativity, though.

By the way, are you serious about that? If so, then include a list of strong female characters in the PPC, as well as reasons that they hold better to the feminist ideal than even the abrasive Amazon!Tsundre! Sues.

Since he doesn't seem to come from an actual fic (published or no), I'm still dubious. I perceive a difference between a) lifting an actual canon replacement from an actual fic, and b) simply making a canon replacement. You might see if you can get some input from the other PGs off-Board and see what they think about it before you decide what to do.

But not that way, obviously (shudder). I didn't just want to be a palaeontologist, though, I wanted to be an ologist. In short, I kind of wanted to study everything. When I was little I had the biggest crush on this famous palaeontologist, whose name I have sadly forgotten. And all this rambling was mostly just to agree about the dinosaurs. They really are awesome, aren't they!
