Chapter 72: Taming the River Fatties

Eni and Nechi approached the dinosaurs after some convincing. They were scared to walk close to dinosaurs that Jimmy hadn’t tamed, because all the life experience they had taught them to be scared, but yet they were prompted to work against their very own common sense.

Jimmy had never lied to them, better than that, he never let them down, so they trusted his word. If he said that these one tonne predators were not hostile towards humans, they felt pressured to take his word for it, regardless of how these same dinosaurs had scared them half to death just moments ago.

Eni wanted to double down on her decision, so she approached the fattest dinosaur of the bunch. If she was going to tame one, she figured that she might as well tame the biggest one.

“Hey there, big boy…” She said, and her hand shook as she reached out to pet its snout. “Don’t bite me please.”

Eni ran her palm across the dinosaur’s nostril, and held her breath, subconsciously suspecting the worst possible outcome. When the dinosaur pushed its snout forward by a few inches, much like a cat who wanted to be petted more, she calmed down. The happy chirps it sang afterwards, almost served like a blood thinner, as it stabilized her heartbeat.

After she calmed down, she studied its colorful stripes, and said, “Oh wait, you’re a girl, not a boy. No wonder you’re so big, you’re getting ready to protect your eggs.”

Jimmy got intrigued by what she said. Anna wasn’t here with them to help them tell species apart, so he had to rely on second-hand information. He was surprised that Eni could tell dinosaurs apart by gender, as they all looked the same to him.

“How do you know that it’s a girl?” He asked. “What type of dinosaurs are they?”

“We call them River Fatties, and I hope you can see why we call them that.” She answered, under her breath. “This one doesn’t have a blue throat, so it’s a female.”

“Interesting,” He stroked his chin.

He thought, ’Damn lizards seem almost impossible to read. It’s not like we can look at their genitals like we do with mammals.’

Eni kept petting the River Fatty she picked, but she didn’t know how she was going to tame it. She had half a mind to try and climb on its back, but she didn’t have the guts to do so.

Nechi, on the other hand, wasn’t as nervous. She was in close range with the dinosaurs, so in the off-chance where they misbehaved, and tried to bite her, she could rot their heads, all the way down to their skulls, right on the spot. The best cards of the table were in her hands now.

Likewise, she progressed a lot quicker. She first stroked their heads, and then went lower, scratching their throats, scratching spots that the River Fatties couldn’t reach with their own legs. They absolutely loved her, and in just two minutes, she got three of them following her around.

At some point, she waved her hands down, gesturing one of them to sit, as best as a River Fatty could sit, that is, and then she climbed on top, and made herself comfortable on its back.

Afterwards, she slapped the River Fatty’s back, and had her stand up. This felt like the most natural thing in the world, for the both of them.

To start steering her, Nechi started pinching the dinosaur left and right, up and down, to try and figure out the best way to steer it. She got the hang of it in five minutes’ time, and when she looked back, she saw that the two other dinosaurs were following her.

“Hehe,” She giggled, confident. “I tamed three of them, Eni! How are you doing?”

“I’m almost there with the big girl,” She hollered back. “Wait for me!”

Eni couldn’t get her River Fatty to sit down for some reason, and at this point she gave up trying. She jumped, and then awkwardly crawled up its hip.

The River Fatty did not protest, and waited for Eni to settle in. In a way, the two of them managed to bond, so essentially, she managed to tame it.

Nechi tamed three of them under the same time bracket, but progress was progress.

Jimmy’s theory was confirmed. Dinosaurs could be tamed without the use of magic, if they were smart enough, and if they were not hostile towards humans.

Such opportunities were limited, rare, even, but it was possible. These fine ladies added four more dinosaurs to the expanding dino army.

“Good job, ladies!” Jimmy shouted out from a distance. “Let’s remember why we’re out here, we gotta look for survivors! Spread out, and we’ll meet back in the morning, where we fried that tender meat last time!”

“Okay….!” The ladies stretched their words, and disappeared into the night, with adrenaline and excitement overwhelming their senses. “Bye!”

“Bye,” He sighed. “Okay, that’s done. I didn’t think that those River Fatties were going to walk away from the river. I stand corrected.”

Afterwards, he climbed on top of Gutaxun, and said, “Come on, boy, we have a horny woman to meet. You can take a nap soon.”

Jimmy had a promise to fulfill. He had to help Rulya find sexual relief, and hopefully get fragments of important information out of her.

Earlier on, Eni had given him little information to work with after Nechi helped her find sexual relief. Tribesfolk in this era didn’t know what proteins, vitamins, or what hormones were, so even though he had pestered her with questions for one hour straight, after Nechi helped her relieve herself, he still couldn’t get much out of her.

Explanations like ’it felt amazing’ – ’I came’ and ’I feel better now’ didn’t help him get any closer to figuring out how to make his tamed dinosaurs less musky. Or, in other words, less hormone addling.

Jimmy didn’t intend to have sex with Rulya, but he was confident that he’d grab some pieces of the puzzle, and make sense out of it, if he got elbows deep in work. Small details could help him piece the entire puzzle together, and if he figured it out tonight, he could alter the dinosaurs he tamed, and perhaps save his butt-hole from significantly stronger men who may be affected by his dinosaurs in such a high-performing sexual way.

He plotted, “If my dinosaurs make people horny, I’d rather have control over which people, or which ladies the smell affects. I gotta fix this ’Horny Disease’ problem or whatever the hell else I can call it, and soon. It’s out of control, and I fear for my ass.”
