This thing is a pain and I hate it, I heard it makes good cementing paste alternative and since I am mostly pacifist and do not like killing stuff I tried to tame one(big mistake) i didn't care about the level so I got a 25 and knocked it out(easy) I gave it berries and it didn't eat them, meat; no I tried everything else from chitin and fish meat and ended up trying to give it literally every consumable thing in my base to see what it eats, than, I gave up and came here to discover that it ONLY eats sweet cakes(tamed or wild) so I pretty much gave up on taming it and locked it in this 1x1 thach prison with my pt(blitz) and it ended up despawning. I wasted a lot of time on this(2 hrs) for nothing but 3 acachina paste.

CHAPTER 1 -the island

“Where am I?” Wondered sailor. She looked around and saw sand and trees and…was that a triceratops? “Whoa!” Exclaimed sailor. Who was slightly nervous. “I thought that those were extinct!” She slowly got up and walked towards it. It didn’t even notice her. She looked behind it and two little babies emerged from the bushes, one was blue with a chocolate brown stipe going across its back and the other was brown with a blue stripe going across its back. “Awww!” Gushed sailor. After she finished admiring the two baby triceratops’ she went to go forage for berries because she was starting to get hungry. She looked at a bush and saw it was covered in berries, at the sight of this it made her stomach rumble. “I guess I’m hungrier than I thought” joked sailor as she picked some berries. After she finished harvesting from that bush she moved on to the next one, while she was picking berries she heard a strange sound kinda like a cow mooing but it was a different creature, not a cow, she looked around trying to find out where the sound was coming from. When she didn’t see anything, or anyone, she went back to picking berries and some strange stringy stuff that was called fiber. She was almost done when she looked over and there was a giant parasaur that was baby blue with navy blue dots on its back, it startled sailor and she fell backwards in surprise. The parasaur didn’t seem startled at all to see her and he just kept walking then went up to a bush and started eating berries off of it. “Aww aren’t you cute” cooed sailor. Sailor thought to herself, “what if I fed him some berries so he would maybe follow me around and help me.” So she took some of the last berries she had and tried to get the parasaur to eat them he refused and kept walking but sailor kept trying, but he just kept ignoring her and munching on bushes. This was starting to anger sailor, she tried one more time and when he refused she punched him in the head, when he fell to the ground sailor had thought that she had killed him. She cautiously approached him and when he stirred she jumped. Then she decided that she would try to feed him berries while he was asleep. It worked! He happily took the berries and ate them this made sailor very happy so she went to go harvest more berries. When she got enough berries for her and the parasaur she went back to go feed him. She walked up to the parasaur and tried to feed him a berry and he accepted it! “Yes!” cried sailor. As soon as she finished celebrating the parasaur woke up and walked towards her. Then it stopped in front of her,she went to the left and he mirrored her movements she took a step backwards and he took a step forwards, then she turned and sprinted a little while and he chased after her and never left her side. Sailor thought he was trying to be friends with her so she gave him a name, he would be called Mirror. At the sound of this the parasaur jumped in the air and did his little moo. “Wow you are happy about that aren’t you Mirror.” Said sailor. As soon as she finished her statement she heard a strange sound behind her it wasn’t like anything that she had heard before so she slowly turned around and before she could react at seeing a cute blue and green little dino she was hit in the face by a sticky green liquid that stung her eyes and burned her throat… next chapter in Acro

once the two jerboas eyes had adjusted, the female jerboa, Nova, made her way to her nest, and curled up in it, the male, Destiny, sat in the corner, glaring at Nova, "Nova-"

"No Destiny, im going to sleep! i dont want to talk about it."

Destiny scoffed, curled up in his nest, closed his eyes, and succumbed to the nighttime visions, or as humans say, Dreams. Destiny woke at sunrise, cold rain pouring outside, glittering as the sun reflected on them, Destiny sniffed the air for any sign of predators, but the rain made it harder for him to scent anything but salty water and wet tree bark, Nova was still asleep when a loud Thump’ thundered outside the den and Nova was startled awake, “What was tha-” Nova started but Destiny cut her off with a sharp Shush, something was trying to dig into their den, and it was hungry.

BoXXy,

I am new to this community as well, but I’m just a viewer and not an author.

I will be more than happy to support your stories!

If you ever feel discouraged or feel like you “suck” at storytelling, let me give you advice:

We all sucked at something once, but it’s the ones that kept going forward that turned out to be experts at the subject.

To Ben from BoXXy:

Awww Mann.. it’s been like 2-3 years since that old corny name.. and my old corny story’s.. and horrible grammar! I totally ghosted Dododex back then.. 😅 funny to see you remember me though! I as just thinking about how I used to write and saw all my old tips and stuff, and remembering how you tipped me and my sister cheesecake! Man.,. It sure has been awhile! I’ve been loving writing to myself so I thought I might come and check if this community is still alive, happy to see it is and happy to redo and finish some of my old stories!

This is a redo/continue/edited prologue of an old story that I only did the prologue for -DeeZBeanZ/BoXXy

~{Dwellings}~ prologue

The night was dark, darker then the desert ever got,

The eerie silence was only broken every so often with a dire wolf howling, or terror birds hunting in the night.

In the darkness, two Jerboa walked along the riverbank in the redwoods, “Be very Quiet..” whispered one of the jerboa, “we’re almost to the den.” As they walked on the wet soil, a mound of mud came into view, it had a gaping hole, it looked like a whale made of mud, and the two jerboa crawled in, and we’re enveloped in darkness.

-Hope you Enjoyed! This is the prologue so chapter one will come soon! I know I said that I would probably not post this today but… I got an idea and had an Itch to do it before I forgot so.. anyway in chapter 1 it will make a lot more sense (especially why jerboa’s are in the redwoods) it will still be in this creature when it comes but till then, Enjoy your day/night! Don’t give in on your dreams! Be happy! Stay calm! And PEACE!✌️ — DeeZBeanZ/BoXXy

DeeZBeanZ again! Just wanted to make sure that whoever saw that I was writing here knows it might be a bit I’m super busy rn in IRL and in ark (just hatched my new magmasaur on default settings so that’s a doozy) and I wanted to make sure I didn’t lead someone to think that when I said I’ll write soon I didn’t mean in a day or two might be a bit but I’m trying to take my time with it! Hope all y’all readers and writers are having a good day/night! Bye ✌️
