Anonymous asked: *Finishes Book 13* *screams* OH GOSH I LOVE THIS BOOK VERY VERY MUCH. Like the Hork-Bajir plotline AND THAT ENDING!!!!!!! So good! I'm pretty sure this is my favourite book so far. AHHHH. I'm sorry I can't contain mY EMOTIONS BECAUSE THIS IS A GOOD BOOK AND I LOVE HAWK BOY TOBIAS. I LOVE PAIN. 1/2

And like the Hork-Bajir??? I… love them???? Bless them and all good wishes to them in their little Eden. Oh god and again another battle they won, and with like a damn good strategy rather than you know everything falling apart at the last minute. AND ALL THANKS TO MY BOY TOBIAS. And I really love how this book gave so much insight into his character. Sorry for the rant.

DO NOT BE SORRY I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH, I’M???  I LOVE IT?  TOBIAS GETS TO BE A HERO AND THE HORK BAJIR GET THEIR LITTLE EDEN AND RACHEL AND TOBIAS GET TO JUMP OFF A CLIFF TOGETHER, WHICH IS JUST THEIR RELATIONSHIP IN A NUTSHELL TBH.

AND HAVE I MENTIONED HOW MUCH I LIKE THE SCENE OF THESE SIX TERRIFIED CHILDREN AND THESE TWO REFUGEE ALIENS STANDING IN THE FOREST AND TAKING A MOMENT OUT OF THEIR BUSY SCHEDULE OF BEING HUNTED LIKE ANIMALS TO SHOUT FREE OR DEAD AT THE TOP OF THEIR DESPERATE LITTLE LUNGS.  LIKE, THAT IS THE THESIS OF THESE BOOKS, THAT IS WHAT EVERYONE IN THESE BOOKS BELIEVE, THAT IS THEIR CODE: FREE OR DEAD.

I’M GOING TO START CRYING ABOUT THIS?????

GOD OKAY I LOVE IT.  PLEASE, GUYS, IF YOU KNOW OF ANY ART OF THIS GIVE IT TO ME SO I CAN WEEP SOFTLY OVER MY F A V O R I T E SCENE IN THIS SERIES.

demenior:

honestly one of the most heart-wrenching, incredible images from the Animorphs series for me is from #13, where the kids, a bunch of 13 year old kids, their equally young andalite friend, and the two only free hork-bajir in the entire universe are all scared, stuck in the woods together and have decided to trust one another. And they pound their chests and scream out the mantra of the entire series free or dead in the face of the yeerk empire that threatens to enslave all of them and it just brings me to tears every time i read it
