I need these kids in the online art community to know the "old masters" of art traced. They traced like hell. They were tracing day and night. They had specific tools specifically to trace.

8. The Alien

Ax, I promise you won't always be known as Elfangor's little brother. You're not gonna like why.

"I couldn't let him go thinking I was mad at him." Oof.

I have to wonder what sort of threat the Andalites' predecessors faced to require THREE hearts. I mean, I guess having one in each torso, but what would the third one be for?

I still find it odd that human morphs can't thought-speak. It's still a morph, and I can't remember if their other speech-capable morphs still had thought-speak. Something for me to consider during the reread.

Their precious Seerow's Kindness laws can fuck straight off.

I remember coming into this one thinking it was really odd after spending the first several books with the human Animorphs. With more thorough background knowledge courtesy of the rest of the series, early Ax's superiority grinds my gears. Not his fault though.

If you want to live through this, Ax, you gotta trust them. You're gonna be the only Andalite for a good long while. Trust your team.

Isn't Jake the one that said Earth was a tough neighborhood? And didn't he say it to the yeerk in his head?

They have to have more yeerks than they have host bodies. Wouldn't it be better to just pass the hosts on to other yeerks? Yes, that would mean having to keep more people in the rotation for the Kandrona, but killing "pre-broken" hosts seems wasteful. (I'm blaming you for that thought, @thejakeformerlyknownasprince)

Rachel considers you a friend, actually. For the record.

I definitely haven't read the Hork Bajir Chronicles lately, but I don't remember about anything about them periodically fighting each other. Continuity error or Andalite inaccurate belief? Or I'm wrong and it's in there.

"As all human fathers are" makes me have all sorts of questions about what weird gender shenanigans Ax has seen in the rest of the galaxy.

"My eyes were bulging from my head. My skin was tingling. My stomach was making sounds." I know he doesn't know much about the human body but honey you're gonna regret that if you don't morph out.

Aww, getting grumpy Cassie is an estreen and he isn't.

It hasn't occurred to them yet that the yeerks might know about the surprise updates to the radio telescope, has it?

"Many centuries ago". What is an Andalite's average lifespan, or is he exaggerating because Ax is young and like most young people thinks anyone older than him is ancient?

Pinning the blame on Ax for his brother's dying wish is... cruel. Given what we learn of the Andalite civilians later on, I don't think they would have been upset with what he'd done. He would have still been their beloved hero.

Okay, forgot this guy being the one to give Ax the location where Visser Three feeds. Is this the only time we have a yeerk with at least implied romantic interest in another yeerk?

I'm glad Ax is questioning their laws already.

Alloran, morph and run! You can escape! Just - ugh! I know he wouldn't have anywhere near the depth of experience the kids have in morphing desperately but rattlesnake venom shouldn't be strong enough to keep him from concentrating to morph.

"They are on the home world." Another lost plot point I guess.

Who wants to tell Ax that he really is just like his brother? Minus the marrying a human thing.

[thejakeformerlyknownasprince]

(ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ) I'll blame Temrash 114 for the line "we break humans, the way humans break horses."

Megamorphs #1. The Andalite's Gift

Yes, I'm a little late again. Anyway. Honestly, I think I've only read this one once or twice, so most of what I remember is from other people's reviews. We'll see how it goes.

"One of" the most hunted? Dude there are six of you. Total. You ARE the most endangered.

Afraid Visser Three used up his "evil genius" some time ago, but yeah he is definitely a problem.

Crows are awesome, Tobias. Show some respect.

"Rachel doesn't think we can survive without her for two days." Wonder why that is.

I know Elfangor wasn't perfect, but his being killed in book 1 shook me fundamentally as a kid. To this day, hearing about him and his death makes me sad.

Marco, you get up to lots of dumb shenanigans, but REALLY.

20 Hork Bajir glued together and given dragon wings might not be the most descriptive, but damn if it doesn't get the point across.

Rachel is so insanely lucky she wasn't out past the time limit. Not a great way to wake up though.

She's had it for all of one book so far and my girl is already developing an unhealthy relationship with her bear morph. I know they can't actually see a therapist because secrecy but good lord all of them need it.

"I am not one of the Animorphs." Honestly this always bothered me. Ax was absolutely a member of the team yet the books kept him on the fringes. I get it but I don't like it.

Anything that can rend limbs from a pissed off grizzly is something I most adamantly do NOT want to mess with.

It's weirdly lucky for the team that Ax was caught. Any of the rest of them would almost certainly have been an automatic game over. Has this one landed in your asks yet, @thejakeformerlyknownasprince?

Ax, baby, attacking the Visser wouldn't have helped anyone. I know seeing the one who killed your brother must have sucked so insanely badly, but you attacking would just have gotten you killed.

Damn right "telling" the Visser something he doesn't want to hear gets you killed. Does it really need to be said? Are some people really slow enough to not already know that?

Personally I don't see how the cops coming is solved by being an elephant, but what do I know.

A blond elephant with human ears is an absolutely hilarious mental image.

"Do you hate trash cans" has always stuck with me, rather odd given the aforementioned I barely read this one thing.

A squirrel riding an elephant is ALSO a hilarious mental image.

Morphing directly on Visser Three was an absolutely insane move. I approve. Very Rachel of you, Ax.

I do wish we got to learn more about the whales.

"Let's drop a whale on it" being a repeated strategy is so funny.

[thejakeformerlyknownasprince]

I LOVE Ax's role in this book, because he gets to be so dang chaotic. Like, in the first half he's just along for the ride with Marco's stupid prank, no idea what he's doing but mostly here to amplify the ruckus.

Then he gets captured, and we learn this kid can think fast. He bullshits Visser Three to bulk up the Animorphs' cover story, he figures out how and when to morph flea, he saves Marco by getting Visser Three veleekified, and he gets himself and Marco out of the Blade ship very handily. And the whole time he's mad at himself for not dying in a suicide attack against Visser Three like he's supposed to. Aw, kid.

[fruit-colored-ninja]

One last thing I noticed on my dr s1 rewatch: when Kai and nya release zane from his pod in episode nine, they play his theme. But, very specifically, in the exact moment the pod opens and all we can really see of him is a suspiciously nindroid-shaped silhouette, they’re playing the minor key version of his theme that’s only ever played when he’s the ice emperor?? It goes back to his normal major key theme a moment later and was probably just a choice to build a bit more tension and a sense of danger before the full reveal, but still kind of a wild choice if you decide to examine the implications too much

[baiwu-jinji]

Hello, first I want to thank you for your insightful takes on TGCF—they’re kind of a fresh breath. So I wanted to ask (I know it might sound silly), what exactly does 'By the Heaven Official’s Blessing, No Paths Are Bound' mean in its native language and cultural context, especially in relation to the core idea of the novel itself?

Have a Good Day

Hi! :) Sorry about my late reply and thank you for your kind words! I know I haven't talked about TGCF on my blog in forever, and I very much want to get back to reading the new revised TGCF but just don't have the time right now between work and translating a novel...

天官賜福, 百無禁忌 literally means "the Heaven Official bestows blessings (on humans), and (by his power) there are no taboos about anything." It's a Daoist belief that the Heaven Official's power could ward off all evil so people don't have to observe any taboos anymore by the power of his blessings (and there're so many taboos in traditional Chinese superstitions). Here the "Heaven Official" doesn't just refer to any celestial deity but specifically one of the three highest deities in Daoist belief, who're called the Three Great Emperor-Officials (三官大帝; the other two officials are Earthly Official and Water Official).

I feel like the title of the book corresponds to the main couple very loosely since Xie Lian literally has no spiritual power to bless anyone (and when he did, things didn't end up well), and Hua Cheng is widely considered as belonging to the type of evil spirit that needs to be warded off by the Heaven Official's power. The second part of the line 百無禁忌 (no taboos/no paths are bound) probably reflects the core idea of the book more closely, since the story of Hualian is about breaking the shackles of ill fate imposed on them (by the will of Heaven in HC's case and by Jun Wu, who wants to embody the will of Heaven, in XL's case) and creating their own path.

Of the Devil is really validating my long held belief that Ace Attorney, Death Note and Danganronpa would all be better if the principal psychosexual rivalries present in each were between women instead

[demilypyro]

Hmmm.....

No.

"our flag means death what we do in the shadows and good omens should be the new superwholock" WRONG our flag means death black sails and pirates of the caribbean should be the new superwholock except now they're all pirate media with canonically queer people in them. like I cannot BELIEVE how soon you people forgot that jack sparrow is literally canonically gay divorced

[everythingispirates]

like okay to elaborate on this obviously they couldn't go super explicit because this was disney in 2003, but in the original idea for the film jack and captain barbossa were like. confirmed as having been in a relationship and while a lot of it was obviously cut what you need to know about the original pirates of the caribbean set was that it was like. almost lawless so some of that did make it through to the film like for example this line

and just in how the two of them interact with each other like in this shot for example

and we see more of this in the later movies like this bit in at world's end

and this bit in on stranger tides

sorry for the long post I'm just very passionate about this and literally no one talks about this for some reason. like my darling tumblerinas gay pirates have been real since 2003

[lacertae-dreamscape]

[handern]

@curiousstrawberry how does it feel to be this hilarious

[museofvoid]

listen as much as i love this idea op is just making shit up akjhfadhg

[casfree]

I think we should all act like they were canonically gay divorced anyway though

[starlight-starwings]

Potc came out before Supernatural, Sherlock, or New Who. So. It can't be the "new" SuperWhoLock.

[everythingispirates]

I need to study you in a lab in what fucking world is that the biggest takeaway from this post
