Serissa, obviously, would be a Hallucigenia.

Realistically speaking, I am a completely non-agressive person, wo I would probably be a hypsolophodont of some type, either Leaellynasaura (my favorite), Zephyrosaurus, or Othneilia.

It's kind of frightening that that's how you see me. :P

Though it does look a little like me. I have the same smile as it does.

((Or do we both just have "bizarre, deam-like qualities?))

For some reason Archaeopteryx comes to mind (ancient bird-like creature, which is technically considered a pterosaur and not a bird for some reason)

Well, how many birds with teeth can you name? Archaeopteryx is no bird.

But nor is it a pterosaur.
The wing structure is like a bird's.
Also, all later pterosaurs lacked teeth.

Archaeopteryx is a thing onto itself.
A bird of sorts, but of a line distinct from modern birds (that is, they think that several dinosaurs evolved independently into birds, the Archaeopteryx line died out leaving only pre-modern birds, and then all lines of those died out, leaving modern birds.

Sauropod- after 3 days of searching I still don’t know if this is spelt right (most of my non nessery stuff is in storage because of my current living arrangements so I could not just look it up)

Archaeopteryx has an ambiguous pelvis intermediary between dino and bird. It's both.
