The silliness of instant oatmeal
I knew about the oatmeal thing in Animorphs (I'm reading them for the first time, but heard about them for years in passing). But I've always seen it presented as part of a contrast. How the Animorphs books, being about war, but also for middle-school-aged children, balance this mix of serious and comical. How sometimes you get war crimes, trauma, heavy morals, and sometimes you get jokes about skunk spray and cinnamon buns and 'what if their weakness was instant oatmeal'.
Having now read book 17, the fact that it's something as mundane as oatmeal is actually integral to the weighty moral question. When pointing out that this is equivalent to drugging the yeerks, a lot of the pushback isn't just 'but this is war' it's 'come on, it's *oatmeal*. The fact that it's something ordinary to the characters and the audience is part of the point. The fact that it sounds kind of silly is what makes the moral slippage easier to excuse. Who cares if the kids fed the yeerks a bunch of oatmeal? That sounds like standard kid-adventure hijinks. The underlying theme would actually be weaker, I believe, if instead of oatmeal it was something less goofy- a kind of mineral, or a chemical compound. If the weakness the team found was some sort of alien super weapon, the question of ethics would be a lot harder to squeeze around. But this makes it clearer how the animorphs are justifying their escalating actions to themselves, how the slippery slope is slipping. Come on, this can't be a sign of them losing their morals or going too far, it's just oatmeal, right?

animorphs is fun from a "how could characters from other series deal with this" perspective because taking out the primary big bad (visser 3) is... not very helpful, actually?
like, visser 3 sucks at his job. he is terrible at leading a stealth operation, kills his subordinates when he's upset, and refuses to consider any possibilities other than what he's already decided is true. like, to be clear, none of this stops him from being a powerful antagonist - he has a whole military, and the animorphs are teenagers. it's just that if he was killed or otherwise removed from power, his replacement would be worse
#animorphs#specifically i was thinking about the phantom thieves#like what if they stole v3's heart?#imo one of two things would happen:#1) v3 stops being leader and is replaced by visser 1 who does a much better job of conquering earth#2) (much funnier) v3 gets over his weird internalised andalite supremacy and becomes a better leader for the yeerk forces#anyway i read somewhere that the animorphs don't make any actual advancements in the war until like book 17

Relating to this post, if animorphs was greenlit for an 8 episode PJO style series, and you weren’t sure if more seasons would come up, what books would you adapt? Would Ax even be there? I would probably introduce him in episode 2 but I know less about animorphs.
To answer the second question: Ax would indeed be hard to solve. I think all undersea adventures would be off the table for budgetary reasons, even today, but you wouldn't want it to look like AniTV's thing where Ax just stands around in the woods yelling "Help!" until Cassie wanders by.
I'd solve this by simply having Ax be on the fighter with Elfangor when he crash-lands. Two issues I foresee here:
It makes the fact that Elfangor should morph to escape glaringly obvious.
It begs the question of how Jake ends up leader if Ax has more yeerk-fighting expertise.
For #1, I think the most interesting resolution would be if Elfangor's shot dead by a yeerk sniper midway through explaining the invasion. The scene would have to engineer a reason for him to be apart from the kids at the time — maybe he steps back into his fighter to return the morphing cube, and then a Bug Fighter shoots it from overhead? — but any exposition he doesn't cover could be taken up by Ax.
For #2, I think you could do a little humor and characterization with Jake and Ax playing hot-potato over responsibility for the team. Maybe Jake speaks for everyone when it's just the humans, but once Elfangor dies he starts asking Ax what to do, and they go back and forth for a while with "I thought YOU knew what to do!" "No, I thought YOU knew!" before Marco or Tobias suggests a vote and Jake gets elected to lead.
To answer the first question: I'd make the following 8 episodes:
Roughly the events of #1 (AKA Jake's story): Elfangor lands, the kids learn to morph, they infiltrate The Sharing, they fail to rescue Tom, Tobias gets stuck.
Parts of #7, MM1, and #17 (AKA Rachel's story): The kids learn about the ground-based kandrona and destroy it, but there are all kinds of downstream consequences. Rachel gets injured during the battle and wanders off with no memory, Ax recruits disgruntled yeerks to help him contact his dad, Jake gets his hopes up about Tom, and a whole bunch of yeerks end up dead or addicted to oatmeal.
Combo of #13 and #23 (AKA Tobias's story) (AKA all of AniTV's good ideas): Tobias stumbles on a group of escaped former human-controllers, who help him plan a mission to break into the yeerk pool and free some hork-bajir. While going through their files, Tobias finds intel about Elfangor's hirac dilest. He saves Jara and Ket, retrieves Elfangor's CD, and discovers it has some kind of baked-in genetic override that restores his morphing power. With Ax, he reads Elfangor's life story.
Some of #19 with most of #29 (AKA Cassie's story): The team falls ill with an alien virus, forcing Cassie to venture into the yeerk pool alone in search of a cure. She ends up trapped in (the woods? a back room? a quicksand pit?) with Aftran and Karen for a few days, long enough for them to become friends and reconcile their differences. Aftran helps Cassie escape with intel that will save Ax before she herself returns to the pool sans host.
Mostly #30 and #45 (AKA Marco's story): Marco is out in public when he spots his dead mom, and follows her as a bug long enough to realize she's controlled by Visser One who is plotting an attack on the hork-bajir valley. Through letting Visser Three in on her plot, Marco discredits her and gets her charged with treason. As Visser One is about to be executed, the Animorphs grab Eva and drag her off to starve out the yeerk. The last scene is Eva and Marco telling a very surprised Peter that they need to talk.
Parts of #37, #46, and #51 (AKA Ax's story): Eva, Peter, and Ax build a radio that will let them talk to the Andalite Navy. Ax learns that a mission is already on Earth — he finds Gonrod et al. and offers to help them, with most of that plot playing out. Ax prevents Estrid from using the quantum virus by threatening to drop a nuclear bomb on the yeerk pool with her crew inside. Estrid reveals that the virus was a last-ditch attempt to save humanity, and that after this the andalites are writing off Earth entirely.
Combo of #49, #50, and #51 (AKA The End): The Animorphs' human DNA gets discovered, probably matching Jake to Tom for simplicity's sake. They evacuate Cassie's and Rachel's families, and start to notify the authorities. At a key moment, Ax reveals that he stole a morphing cube from Gonrod. Jake suggests making more Animorphs, but is acting reckless about it in the aftermath of losing his family — sure enough, after recruiting James et al., Jake walks into a trap and Tom's yeerk gets the morphing cube. The episode ends with Tom's yeerk popping up in the hork-bajir valley, offering to make a deal.
Mostly #54 (AKA The Beginning): Rachel dies, the Blade ship escapes, Cassie becomes the alien-human ambassador, Marco gets famous, Tobias lives in a tree, Jake teaches the next generation how to morph, and Ax hunts the Blade ship. To give a little more resolution than we get in canon, maybe Ax himself comes back to Earth and recruits the boys to help him battle The One in the outer reaches of space.
A lot would need to get cut, for the sake of taking 63 stories down to 8 — no Ellimist, no David, no Loren, no Crayak, no Toby, probably no taxxons or chee. But I think that my version preserves most of the overall story, while still being (hopefully) easy enough to follow for people who haven't read the books.

Question for the Animorphs community
So I have recently begun (consensually) dragging my partner down into Animorphs hell with me.
Originally, this was just a watch/roast of AniTV, as I’d never seen it and they wanted to share my passion, but after enough instances of me going “yeah so in the books it’s more like this but they couldn’t fit that in the budget”, they later asked to borrow my books and read it for themselves. So they’re experiencing both simultaneously.
However, this raises a problem. The books and the show are not in the same order after The Message. The next book is #5 The Predator, or Ep. 15/16 The Leader. The next episode is Ep. 7 The Escape, or #17 The Underground.
I want them to have the best experience with this series possible. I also want to watch the whole show with them. Yes I realise that is contradictory.
Is is better to get the authentic version first, and the derivative after? Or wash down the low-budget cringiness with the original’s authentic flavour. Which version of “depiction of a mental health facility in the 90s” do I subject them to first?
(We’ve also played Shattered Reality but my commentary was largely “so the intro gave us the plot of Animorphs but SIKE this is the plot of the game” and “those are meant to be Howlers, in the books they’re not nearly this much of a pushover”)

suzanne collins fascinates me as a person. i wanna study her like. did she approve how this movie came out? or the previous ones? does she think its funny? or just sees it as bringing more readers to her books???? as a novelist, if my story got misconstrued by the masses so hard i would. idek what i'd do but maybe she saw it coming when she made the movie deal. idk!!!! i liked the movies as a kid (had an excuse not to be media literate. was a kid. read the books the first time as like a 12 year old LOL) but now im just…… the actor did katniss so dirty shes angry and petty and unlikable and sharp and. shes just SO MUCH MORE of an interesting person in the books
very flawed. arguably collins tries to make her unlikable. VERY different from your typical YA female protagonist™️ SPEAKING OF WHICH. its very weird to me that suzanne wrote it as a YA book. its honestly pretty adult. in the sense of the big themes its tackling. but, of course, i dislike when people imply that books for younger folks cant do that successfully. i always point to animorphs as a fantastic example. i honestly wonder if her publishing agency pushed that angle cuz like yeah katniss is 17. but still
if you have any interest at all in dystopia and HAVENT read the hunger games please give it a shot. even if you didnt like the movies (or did. or didnt see them. whatever) theres a reason it kicked off the popularity of dystopia in pop culture. almost nothing made in the few years after is nearly as good
#to be clear i havent seen the ballad movie yet i plan on pirating it#but first i want to reread the book bc its been a couple years#i LOVED it tho#anyway. some ramblings from discord#the hunger games#ig#suzanne collins#corvi caws#the ballad of songbirds and snakes

Animorphs #16: What did you think of Actual Cannibal Bill Gates?
#17: What do you think long-term oatmeal addiction would look like? Given that we’ve only seen but it’s like for a few months.
THE OATMEAL BOOK. the oatmeal episode was so good. i love the part where they're all making jokes about mental illness before breaking into the psychiatric ward except jake and after like 5-10 minutes of this jake is like "alright guys. cut it out. we have to get serious. after all. ... ...... it would be Nuts to go in without a plan. :)" and everyone just fucking stares at him. it was so funny. all so mean to him just because he is prematurely middle-aged. that was also the one that had the scene i remembered being shown(?) prior to reading where rachel just does the most bizarre non-sequiturs trying to sound normal talking to the dude with the oatmeal yeerk in his head. really good. i feel like the way this question is phrased insinuates it somehow manages to be relevant later which i would not anticipate but i can't think of why else you'd be asking. i don't know i wasn't studying the mechanisms of this fictional addiction to oatmeal i was watching the animorphs
cannibal bill gates is fun. endearing period piece wrt internet. and then somewhat bewildering decision to throw in an offhanded joke about marco being disturbed by finding out a pedophile was pursuing him online. largely endearing though. and this one had the bear-mopping-carpet moment. AND the aximili l + ratio + horatio + ray + shee + oh moment. good books

4 6 and 17 for the ask game?
4. Did you discover any new authors that you love this year?
After having an amazing time with The City of Unspeakable Fear, I'm very excited to check out more Jean Ray. Also, despite my mixed feelings on The 120 Days, I do kinda wanna check out the other Grove Press Sade collections.
6. Was there anything you meant to read, but never got to?
I was hoping to finish Ward and the first half of Umineko this year, both of them are things I feel like I need to finish before starting other big commitments. I still want to finish both of them, its probably not happening within the next three days at this point.
Also I'm trying to finish Steppenwolf before the year ends pray for me.
17. Did any books surprise you with how good they were?
None of the Earthsea books were good in the same way, so each one was a nice little surprise. Also I had more fun with the first few animorphs than I expected.

Hello Lola my dear, I have seen your unhinged ask in my box and will be answering it soon, but in the mean time I thought I'd uno reverse you and ask some of the normal asks for you, too. Please feel free to answer any or all or none at all, whatever speaks to you.
17. Assign each of your fics (or selection of them) a cryptid.
21. If you were starving and had to feast on one of your fics to survive, which fic would it be?
an uno reverse! how very dare! thank you, sara!
17. I don't actually have that many fics, but i will assign my 7 most recent with terrible explanations:
a. the rainbow fish (tarlos) - a yeti because i simply couldn't ignore it (wrote this fic so fast, loved every minute).
b. double, double, acting trouble (firstprince) - a british big cat because the concept is so outlandish it can't be real.
c. ALTA (tarlos) - the mongolian death worm because it invaded my brain and caused me so many issues but i couldn't get rid of it. like a bad animorphs book.
d. cursed is a state of mind (firstprince) - mothman. it's sinister, and it's cursed and no one in their right mind would want to give a giant, evil bird caffeine.
e. (un)professional services (tarlos) - bigfoot, for the same reason as (a) - could not look away, could not stop writing.
f. catch and release (firstprince) - a champy, because its a teeny tiny monster in a lake (and this fic is about rowing).
g. oh baby i'm a fool for you (tarlos) - i mean...i think this one is obvious. the loch ness monster because this fic was about as cursed as the whole concept of resume and imprinting.
21. I'd be chowing down on ALTA, purely because it's the biggest and it would help me survive the longest.
#cursed ask#lolaland answers#cha-melodius#double double acting trouble#rainbow fish#ALTA#cursed is a state of mind#(un)professional services#catch and release#oh baby i'm a fool for you
