I forgot, could they morph into other humans? Something tells me they must not have been able to do sapient creatures or else Tobias would’ve just found some hot guy to permamorph into.
They had moral objections to that for a long time, though by the end of the series, they did it all the time. But Tobias getting stuck as a hawk meant that he couldn't morph at all. He gets the morphing power returned to him by the Ellimist (basically a slightly benevolent Q) along with the ability to morph into his old human form, with the rider that his normal form was now a hawk, with the understanding that Tobias was free to return to human form at any point and get restuck, but that meant he could no longer be an animorph.

For the first time in my life I was like, "dude I just paid $30 for a fucking half-carafe at an airport bar, I'm not going to send it back" as I just reached out for the bottle

Like in one of the spin off novels a hero gets permanently trapped in the form of a 8 foot long sentient milipede that will compulsively cannibalism any member of its species that gets injured.
It Chapter 2 was inconsistent but holy shit
Does Skaarsgaard and Hader knock it out of the park.
Hader was just the fucking best.
Yeah Hader has been consistently killing it on Barry so I'm really happy he's finding film success! Comedy actors always seem to have surprising dramatic chops.

I don't know why but I feel that comedians are more capable of dramatic range than others
Perhaps humor is this poignant neurotic reflexion to tragedy, etc etc

I have to admit, there is a point in the animorphs, I think around the book where Cassie accidentally finds herself in the Australian outback, where my knowledge gets a little thin. I think I might even be missing one of the books somewhere in issues #40-45. But I could still probably write pretty accurate summaries of books 1-30 without any help.
Also am I remembering correctly that all their excess mass got warped to another dimension and it was technically possible but unlikely that it could get hit by a spaceship or something?

It was like, out in the middle of space somewhere I think? And it did get hit once. and like, weirdly warped them all into the ship?
ok I am back from happy hour with my cousin with whom I had never prior had a conversation
she's great and I can tell we come from the same culture and genetics
she's also probably going to leave academia after her postdoc and she has a way better knowledge of gay bars in my neighborhood than I do and also our cats are cousins in appearance and behavior
and I'm a little drunk on two cocktails which is p sad tolerance-wise but also $23 for two drinks and a ramen is insanely cheap where I live so you sort of have to

Z-Space, where you could see inside and outside of everything at the same time.
The covers were all reflective shiny and the books were all about the kids discovering they had super powers and silver blood because they were actually aliens.

Also they turn into ants and almost all immediately develop ptsd
what the fuck
Yeah so when theyre animals theyre subject to instincts and compulsions animals feel. Not always overpowering, but there. They turn into ants and immediately get caught up in an ant war driven by pheromones and almost get dismembered before breaking out of it. One of them finds a tiny ant head still biting her side in the shower later.
I remember seeing the Animorphs books and reading the blurbs certainly - mostly in 3rd-4th grade? - but I can't say that I've actually read one of them
A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.
And they agree to do the suicide mission at the end because the war basically broke them all as people by the age of 18 and they struggle to fit into any society not at war now.

It was the stuff where they started building their bodies into spaceships and like escalating over time into godlike powers that I was all about.
Did they have telepathy while they were human?
