- —Brooklynn to Darius in Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous season 5, episode 9, "The Core”
Darilynn is the het ship between Brooklynn and Darius Bowman from the Jurassic Park fandom.
Canon[]
Season 1[]
Brooklynn and Darius meet when they are both invited to Camp Cretaceous. When they first meet, Brooklynn and other campers consider Darius to be a nerd, and nickname him "Dino Nerd". Later in season one they share a Gyrosphere. They witness a runaway dinosaur, and Darius wants to go after it. He convinces Brooklynn by saying that her "Brooklanders" would love to see it. Once they finally go after the dinosaur, they get trapped and Brooklynn starts crying. Darius feels bad and tries to find a way out of the broken Gyrosphere. Later that night Darius apologizes to Brooklynn and she tells him that it's fine. Once she goes to check to footage of the day she smiles when she sees Darius in the video.
While trying to find a way to the island docks following the Indominus Rex attack, the campers find a monorail. Unfortunately, there's a dinosaur blocking the way. Darius is the first one to run past the dinosaur when it isn't looking, but when Brooklynn tries to follow he warns her that the dinosaur is looking their way. At the end of the season, the campers all discover that they are stuck on Isla Nublar.
Season 2[]
At the start of season two, Darius and Brooklynn make a plan to get a signal to the mainland, but have to go into T-Rex territory to do so. Kenji and Darius go in, and when the T-Rex tries to return to its territory Brooklynn worries about Darius's life. When the group heads to Main Street, they see a cutout of Brooklynn. Darius and Yasmina laugh at the fact that she always wears the same outfit. Brooklynn replies that it is her favorite outfit. After that Darius makes up a personal nickname for Brooklynn and starts calling her "Super Star".
Later in the season, Brooklynn goes to save Darius from Mitch and Tiff. Once she sees them she runs over Mitch & Tiff to save Darius. Darius is upset by the fact that Mitch and Tiff were dinosaur poachers, so Brooklynn put her hands on his shoulder and tells him that they're never going to do it again. At the end of the season Darius feels guilty for not being able to stop Mitch and Tiff from escaping. Brooklynn puts a hand on his shoulder and tells him there has to be another way.
Season 3[]
In the beginning of the third season, it is noted that Darius and Brooklynn are much closer friends than in season two. Now the two are high-fiving, fist-bumping, or even hugging (the latter is shown later in the season) proving that their friendship is stronger than ever. In the second episode, after finding Tiff and Mitch's yacht, Darius and Brooklynn go down to the lower deck of the boat. Kenji comes out of a door screaming, scaring them both. Upon reaching the dock, the group decides to have a party on the yacht. Darius and Brooklynn are together throughout the party. They sit down to talk and decide that they must return the prank to Kenji. Unfortunately, while they are hatching the prank Kenji manages to scare them again. Later, Brooklyn and Darius find some fireworks, with they intend to use to scare Kenji.
While they are plotting, the yacht drifts and hits the dock, causing a hole in the hull. They all go to the dock to find something to patch the yacht with. When they all separate to search faster, Brooklynn goes to Darius and takes him by the arm. She warns him that Kenji will likely try to scare them again, especially in the dark. Darius agrees, and as they start walking together Brooklynn continued to hold Darius's arm. Later, while Darius is searching near the dock fence, he realizes that it is broken, so he quickly goes to look for his friends to warn them. He goes to find Brooklynn first. He accidentally scares her, but tells her that they have to head back to the yacht because a dino broke through the fence. Later, we discover that the culprits are a pair of ouranosaurus, which are chasing the group. Already on the yacht, Darius and Brooklynn go for the fireworks and use them to scare away the ouranosaurus. Once accomplished, they both bump their fists.
The next day, the group decides to go to Kenji's penthouse to look for gas and something to patch the yacht. While they are searching Brooklynn realizes there is something on the other side of the door. She warns Darius from moving. However they are attacked by a monolophosaurus, and attempt to escape through the elevator shaft. There, a monolophosaurus tries to bite Brooklynn, causing her to fall and lose consciousness. Darius is clearly worried for her. When Brooklynn wakes up she tries to open the elevator. Darius falls down the shaft, onto a monolophosaurus. Brooklynn tries to help him, but then the monolophosaurus awakens, cornering them both. They are finally saved by Kenji.
The next day Brooklynn and Sammy go to investigate the mystery of Mantha Corp, where they uncover the existence of the Scorpius Rex. Later that night, the Scorpius attacks the campers. Sammy is poisoned by the Scorpius Rex, and Yaz is sent to find the antidote. Ben and Darius agree to cause a distraction to help Yaz. Before they leave, Brooklynn wishes Darius good luck. Yaz returns with the antidote, although Sammy does not initially react to it. Brooklynn, about to cry at the loss of her friend, gestures for everyone to hug. Darius and Brooklynn are the only ones seen hugging. Thankfully, Sammy wakes up moments later.
As the campers are packing to leave the island, they realize that Ben has gone to look for Bumpy. Darius says he is going to go alone to search for Ben. Brooklynn is the first to worry about him, telling Darius that he couldn't do everything just again. Still, Darius set off by himself. Minutes later, Brooklynn tries to contact Darius on his walkie-talkie, but Darius ignores her messages. Brooklynn again tries to contact Darius after he finds Ben, telling him that they encountered the Scorpius Rex, but that they were all fine and would be waiting for them on the yacht. Darius tries to answer her, but is unsuccessful as his walkie-talkie had been damaged. With no response from Darius, Brooklynn becomes quite concerned for him. By dawn, Ben and Darius still haven't arrived. Brooklynn grows very worried. Ben and Darius finally arrive, and when they do they all give each other a group hug.
However, before the campers can fully escape the island they are stopped by a group of helicopters. Dr. Wu has come to the island with a group of mercenaries to retrieve his research. Darius, Yaz, and Brooklynn set out to retrieve the research first. They head to Dr. Wu's lab and steal his laptop. However, Dr. Wu catches them and takes Brooklynn hostage. He demands they give him the laptop in exchange for Brooklynn, but Darius refuses. Brooklynn also encourages the group not to give in to Dr. Wu's demands. Kenji, however, decides to steal the laptop and free Brooklynn. The campers all manage to escape Dr. Wu and make their way onto the yacht, successfully leaving Isla Nublar behind. However, Darius is furious with Kenji for handing the laptop over, even if it meant guaranteeing Brooklynn's safety.

Sometime after the events of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and the dinos' escape onto the mainland, Brooklynn broke up with Kenji after their relationship soured due to drifting apart. Regardless she kept contact with all friends, Darius included. Brooklynn began to involve herself deeply with the DPW and its smuggling operations in some way, she ended up getting the attention of Dudley Cabrera, the head of a regional DPW center who decided to intimidate her into remaining silent about the operations going on by setting up a one-eyed Allosaurus to attack her at a forest. When she went to the place she got set up for, she tried to call Darius so he could help her, but Darius didn't show up and she was seemingly killed by the dinosaur. Darius could only arrive to find a horrified DPW agent, a pool of blood, Brooklynn apparently dead and the Allosaurus escaping into the night which traumatized him greatly. For a while Darius vowed to avenge Brooklynn and capture the dinosaur responsible for her death.
Later while reconnecting with the remaining Nublar Six, Darius reflected on his feelings for Brooklynn and after realizing his denial about her death by sending voice messages to her phone, finally realized in full awareness that he developed a crush on Brooklynn but was always too scared to meet her in person due to this.
Fanon[]
Due to Camp Cretaceous having a relatively small online space, fandom content is limited. That being said, Darilynn is the third most popular ship in the fandom, and the most popular het pairing. It is also the most popular ship for both Brooklynn and Darius, beating out Brooklynn's canon relationship with Kenji. Darilynn is often shipped alongside Yasammy and Benji. The ship sailed due to fans liking the dynamic between the internet celebrity Brooklyn and the dino nerd Darius. They were also shown to be very close friends, and may have been put together as a "Pair the Spares" situation when the more popular Yasammy and Benji were already paired up. The pairing got even more popular after Chaos Theory revealed Darius developed a crush on her and they remained fairly close, with Brooklynn's apparent death driving Darius' guilt over it.
Darilynn currently has over 100 works on AO3.
