luckyladylily asked: Thought you might like this, in my head you are "That animorphs person". You made me get back into the series from when I was younger. Gradually making my way through the series again now. I Love your rereading comments.
This…this is it…this is the pinnacle of my life….
I was just wondering to my friend the other day if I qualified as an Animorphs Person now or not.
I am so gratified by this information.
readera asked: For the softer world Animorphs, any pair. M, L, O, and T. T is made for Ax, though. Have you heard of the podcast Morph Club Cast? It is two nerds rereading all of Animorphs. All of them, even the spin offs!
For some reason this ask got lost in the shuffle a billion years ago, but I am actually for real doing all of those prompts for the Animorphs because I have no sense of self-preservation. I specifically have already completed O: No no, we aren’t breaking up! You didn’t let me finish. I’m gay for YOU. (And I’m queer for math!) It has tragic gay Andalite smoochin’. L and M are still up in the air and I’m considering having T be someone teaching Ax to cook, AKA The grand adventure of “NO AX THAT’S NOT FOOD”. N is going to be a Firefly AU, though.
AND YES. YES I HAVE HEARD OF MORPH CLUB. I LOVE THEM DEARLY. I DON’T KNOW IF MEGAN OR CAREY HAVE TUMBLR ACCOUNTS, BUT IF THEY DO, SOMEONE TAG THEM. IN THE EVENT THAT EITHER OF YOU SEE THIS, I SCREAMED FOR REAL WHEN I DISCOVERED YOUR PODCAST AND I LOVE IT TO BITS AND FUCKING PIECES.
Anonymous asked: Where you a Tamora Pierce reader growing up?
Actually, yes! I preferred her Immortals and Circle Magic series, and having reread one of them just a couple years ago (the Immortals series, with Daine) I can confirm that they age remarkably well and I still really ship Daine/Numair. Feel free to come talk to me about my feelings.
Anonymous asked: C and F for the fandom meme? (I hope you're having a good day!)
C: A pairing you wish you shipped, but just can’t
Oh, wow, sit tight, all of these are entirely predicated on God my life would be easier if I shipped the most popular ship in the fandom.
Charles Xavier/Erik Lensherr: I got committed to the tragic friendship way too young to change my mind, but I have nothing against the ship.
Any configuration at all of Jim Kirk/Spock/Bones McCoy: I just…struggle? I concur that Spock/Kirk is pretty gay in TOS and I want to ship it, and honestly Kirk/Bones should be my exact shit, but I just–look, Kirk is too in love with the Enterprise for anyone else to have a claim.
Buffy Summers/Spike: nope, nope, nope, nope, can’t do it. Too rapey, too much sexual assault, even if I didn’t like Angel I wouldn’t be able to handle it.
Doc Holliday/Wynonna Earp: the show clearly really wants me to care about that pairing and like…I guess there’s nothing wrong with it, but I raise you Doc Holliday/Wyatt Earp and Wynonna/Dolls because Dolls is wonderful and Doc is so blindingly obviously in love with Wyatt and trying to work his issues out by fucking Wynonna, which, no judgement, because Wynonna is clearly trying to work out her own adequacy issues by fucking Doc.
Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter: I want to ship it just so I could stop feeling this level of seething wrath about it, I feel similarly about almost EVERY ship that the HP fandom likes, including literally anything that includes Severus Snape.
F: What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom? What fandom was it?
I mean…I was a late-comer to the concept of internet fandom (the last…four or five years?) because of various reasons, but I’ve been a devoted consumer of any X-Men content I could afford to get my hands on since I was 7 and I’ve been collecting Animorphs books about as long, so there’s those.
Anonymous asked: you are making me seriously consider going back and reading the animorphs books we have at my house
DO IT.
DO IT AND TALK TO ME ABOUT THEM.
ALL THESE YEARS MY BLOG HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT A RUSE TO SUCK YOU ALL IN AND CONVERT YOU TO ANIMORPHS.

Anonymous asked: D For the fandom meme?
D: What was the first thing you ever contributed to a fandom?
Pretty sure the first thing I ever actually contributed was THIS Scarlet Witch/Vision post-Civil War fic, which is entirely fluff originating in a conversation I had with my best friend about the lack of fic for the two of them and the fact that no one had written a mid-air kiss for these two FLYING SUPERHEROES.
An excerpt:
Vision’s hand reached out, hovering just over her shoulder. “Are you having nightmares again?”
“Nothing shocking,” she said. “The same.” The wreckage of her house, her brother’s body. Strucker’s failed experiments. Straitjackets inside cages inside prisons. The Avengers, twisted and shattered in red light. “Some new.” Men without limbs, and sinking into the sea, and Vision, turning his clear cold eyes and terrible power toward her.
Vision lingered for a moment, then lowered his hand so that his palm was up, an invitation. “Come with me. Just for a little while. I promise to bring you back.”
I love this ship, y’all.

For this list of fandom questions!
D: What was the first thing you ever contributed to a fandom?
I’m pretty sure it was this fluffy Rey/Poe/Finn fic, featuring the three of them on a forest planet, cute shy pre-relationship flirting, BB-8, and flower crowns. And Rey attempting to eat the foliage.
Here is an excerpt:
Finn’s teeth flashed in a grin as he laced his fingers through Poe’s–Poe stomped down on a blush, he was a grown-ass man, he was not going to turn into a kriffing Academy kid over a pair of pretty young things. Even if they were as pretty as Rey and Finn. Finn didn’t seem to notice his moment of internal struggle, pulling him after Rey and BB-8 with a laugh.
The trees gave way to low growth, shrubs and wildflowers and grasses, near the lakeside. Rey nearly shrieked in delight at the discovery of a patch of flowers in a shade of brilliant red, dotted here and there with the tiny light blue blooms that practically infested this system.
“They come in colors!” she cried, and Poe made a mental note to get Rey out more. This was their first free day since Finn regained full function and Rey brought back a very reluctant Jedi master, but he could probably trade some favors to get her a few flowers to keep on the base.
If you require an antidote to the sheer density of fluff in the above fic, I also wrote this one.
