* WeAreNotGoingThroughThatAgain: ZigZaggedTrope (after a fashion): When Washu asks if the Park has an ''Indominus Rex'', she is immediately answered that no, they ''don't'' (in the fear of a repeat of the events of ''Film/JurassicWorld'').

''[[http://marcoasalazarm.deviantart.com/art/CORELINE-REGULAR-DINOSAUR-PARK-Story-One-541646509 "Regular Dinosaur Park"]]'' is one of various stories set on the ''Fanfic/CoreLine'' SharedUniverse, and the introduction of a new location for the setting: Film/JurassicPark.

It has been five years since the Park has re-opened its doors and it is getting plenty of people daily. However, there is a constantly present and pretty clear danger: The dinosaurs that make the people come in are also very capable of destroying everything, and the many threats without and within the Park (which will undoubtedly end up releasing the dinosaurs) make security a risky proposition.

The solution? Hire [[Anime/TenchiMuyo Washu Hakubi]], the CEO of weapons and technology MegaCorp "Hakubi Customs", and have her procure them with the firepower needed to deal with these dangers when (not ''if'') they appear...

Currently under construction. Please add tropes as you see them!

* ADayInTheLimelight: This story is one for Washu (who had appeared previously in various capacities on the stories by Gideon020).
* AmusementParkOfDoom: The important part of the story is that the Jurassic Park higher-ups are looking for options to be ''less'' dangerous... ironically, it is mentioned at one point early on in the story that the Park's new key market is the "daredevil"-type tourists that wouldn't mind the Park being ''absurdly'' full of danger.

* OtherMeAnnoysMe: Hammond mentions at one point his disappointment any time someone confuses him for his {{Jerkass}} [[Literature/JurassicPark book]] version (to not mention said version having ''unleashed the Indominus Rex as a biological assault weapon upon the world'').
