Very nicely worded, Chad. Haha, I guess I'm a nothlit in more ways than one . . .
I guess I never really thought of it that way before, although that phrase still did really resonate with me, too. For me, it was for a different reason, though. It seems to imply that every reader is somehow a hidden Animorph. Or maybe I just saw it that way because I so desperately wanted to believe it. But it seems to say, "Okay, you guys don't have to hide anymore. You know the Yeerks are defeated, and earth is safe again. You may now demorph." It's like that phrase made it all real.
So, I guess, to me, 'demorph' sort of implied the opposite of what everyone else seems to have thought. Instead of letting go of Animorphs, I saw it as finding the meaning of Animorphs in your own life.
