One thing I’ve never exactly understood. Why did the victory on Earth in books 53/54 correspond to a total victory over the Yeerk Empire? Most clearly, we never see the Council of 13 get defeated.

Short answer: Eva.

Long answer:

This is all kind of background to the main plots of the books, but. What we know happens is something like this.

The yeerks try to take Leera, under Visser One's leadership. They meet andalite resistance, leeran resistance, and Animorph resistance — ultimately they fail (#15 - #18).

V1 gets reassigned to Sleegab Five. Not many details, but it doesn't go well. Doesn't help that Marco has been actively discrediting her within the Empire (#30).

V1 gets rereassigned to Anati (#30).

Toby et al. launch a resistance on the Hork-Bajir Homeworld (#34).

V1 gets tried as a traitor (thanks, Marco) and slated for execution (Visser). V3 becomes V1. This corresponds with the Empire withdrawing from some failed attempts to take other planets.

Eva (after being rescued; thanks Marco) points out that the Yeerk Empire has few territories outside of Earth that aren't being occupied by andalite counter-invasions (#45).

Andalites have occupied Yeerk Homeworld, Taxxon Homeworld, and Sleegab Five, taking them back from Yeerk Empire (#46). Eva knows that the yeerks are trying to convince the andalites that their focus is on Anati, and that their actual focus is on Earth.

Ax persuades Andalite War Council that yeerks are concentrating on Earth, which is a mixed blessing — it gets the andalites to head for Earth, but they plan to annihilate it when they arrive (#46).

Yeerk forces further concentrate on Earth (#51). Eva speculates that they now have 0 other planets, if they've lost Anati.

Jake, Toby, and Eva plan to blow the biggest yeerk pool on Earth to convince the yeerks "Earth isn't worth their time". They know they're making the yeerks some other planet's problem, but need to prevent the andalites from wiping out humanity (#52).

The yeerks are so overcommitted to Earth that blowing the yeerk pool has the opposite effect. New!V1 instead lands the Pool Ship on Earth and throws everything at an open Earth invasion (#53).

Eva, Jake, Arbron, and V17* conspire to both draw andalite forces to Earth and conceal that fact from new!V1. Now all the andalites' and all the yeerks' eggs are in the Earth basket (#53).

Jake corners V1 and forces him to surrender. V17 reveals to the Empire that the andalites are here, and plans to use that chaos to escape with a splinter group. The andalites accept Jake's handing over the Yeerk Empire (#54).

Rachel kills Tom, preventing V17's escape.

Ax and Alloran manage to negotiate Earth remaining independent, even as the andalites take control of the Yeerk Empire.

Happy one year to Bolt in the Blue by @valeriianz ! Truly the best band au fics I've ever read, I am Endless' #2 fan forever (#1 is Hob, of course) 💙🎸✨

+ alt. colors for the flyer & other scans:

i love taking advantage of my art uni's massive (MASSIVE) scanners for literally anything i can. it's got the most gorgeous grit and scan banding that photoshop trickery cant replicate (though i try lol). so, yes, i literally printed out the b&w flyers, scanned them in, then added color and printed them again to stick on my wall haha.

when digitally adding color, i wanted it to really feel like black ink on colored paper instead of trying to print on color paper and then scan it again (i have done this before idk). i think the xerox-y look is pretty convincing! the green, pink, and purple are my personal favs.

an irl friend suggest i try non-black-ink versions to see what i liked. i think they look cool but some of the text gets a bit lost. still, i like the pale yellow+red ink one. (this almost makes me want to try riso printing this to see what it'd look like 👀👀).

^ this is what the white horse metal barrier edit looked like before I added the Huji Cam filter lol. it wasn't feeling convincing enough like this, so i actually took a photo of my laptop screen with the filter and somehow that looked more real than the actual shot from the show lol. (also, because i've stared at this screenshot for so long, the orange/yellow June 12th poster? is everything on it a reference?? loll)

anyway, had a lot of fun making this!! feel free to print if you want!! READ THE FIC EVERYONE GO READ BOLT IN THE BLUE RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@sanguineteetotaler from here

Even someone as great as the White Wolf has his moments. He hadn't expected there to be so many of them, they do not usually hunt in packs, it's not like the creatures that had gotten the drop on him.

He can't even protest as he's scooped up by Regis, the Wolf does not have the energy or the full awareness to do so. He finds himself dizzy from blood loss and the way he was scooped up, a groan falls from his lips - a sign he is alive at least.

Claw like gashes cover the front of Geralt's chest. If he had a Swallow potion, he would not be in this state, but the damn things knocked it out of his hands and the potion bottles broke open.

They are now dead but Geralt had barely made it out alive. Knowing his dear friend is nearby, there is no one better to help him recover than Regis.

The question barely registers, he's not sure he could explain it if he tried, so instead he grunts as he's laid upon the bed. A single curse from the pain later and finally cat-eyes open to look at his friend who is set to work on his injuries.

"Swallow potion." Another groan, just talking hurts like hell. "Do you know how to make one?" If not, simple medical attention will do but Swallow does the job far quicker for a Witcher.

In Eros' defense- he'd been interested at first! And had remained interested until his gaze had dropped to focus on his lips the first time. And the little vidyadhara found himself more or less entranced. That was his mistake, really. Watching the other as he talked. Watching how lips parted and formed the very letters and sounds that strung a sentence together.

He wanted very much to hear about plants- that was, after all, his special interest! And here he was thinking of things that were less than savory for an every day conversation.

But there he sat, watching the other's lips part to make that simple sound. The way his teeth tugged at the bottom one. And Eros grinned at it, twirling part of his hair around one of his fingers now. At least, until there came the gentle touch to his shoulder and he was jumping ever so slightly. His features turning a deep red when he realized that he'd gone off. Extremely...far...off. And for how long exactly?

"No, no-- hey 'm sorry- I wasn't- that ain't. Oh, by th'Laughter I did it again..." How exactly did you even explain this sort of thing without it pushing him away?

He brought the sucker from his mouth if only so it didn't muffle him or make his words hard to make out, sitting a little straighter now. "Promise y'have m'full attention, tea cake, really. I jus'..." Now it was his turn to be sheepish, looking down at the table as his cheeks flushed further. "I got distracted by how pretty y'er lips looked while y'were talkin'..."
