Animorphs Reboot
« on: May 14, 2017, 11:25:15 PM »
I'm getting back into this series after a long hiatus. I recently started reading the books to my kids and one thing led to another and now I'm writing a full-scale reboot.

Here's the link to my series outline.

It should go without saying but just to cover my bases: the series outline contains spoilers, so if you just want to read the fan fiction as I add updates, go for it. But I wrote out where I want the series to go and where and why my continuity is different.

And this is the link to #01: The Fallen. I’ll post when I've added new chapters, but the links will always bring up the most current version of the documents.

I feel it may have some pacing issues. I write better collaboratively, so feedback and suggestions are very appreciated. My Google Docs settings for these documents allow anyone to leave comments.

And feel free to check out my Tumblr if you're at all interested.

Woah, I seem to have forgotten to check in on this thread.

I reformatted my original chapter structure, posted Chapter Eight earlier today.

I went to the window and looked up at the stars. Somewhere up there, around one of those
cold, twinkling stars, was the Andalite home world. Somewhere up there was . . . hope.

<They'll come,> Tobias said. <The Andalites will come. And until then . . . >

I nodded and wiped away my tears. "Yeah," I said. "Until then, we fight."

Chapter 12 is up. I keep sharing the chapter links on the Facebook group, the subreddit, Tumblr, and I've even tweeted them, but I keep spacing to post on the forum. Sorry, I'll try to be more fastidious with future chapters.

Finally got a chance to read this, and, just, holy crap.  You've managed to change the story at all the exact right points, to make it into something completely new and all your own.  I'm glad I saw the version of an Andalite you're working on as a 3D model, because the way you described Elfangor in your book, I just can't picture him any other way.  He seems so much more alien, the way you've written him, and the deer-centaur concept would not have done him justice.  Makes me curious about how you'll depict Ax, when they get around to meeting him.  But right now I mostly just can't wait to see the Yeerk Pool OMFG.  It took me a while to notice the lack of Hork-bajir and Taxxons anywhere in the story thus far, which is simultaneously weird to me for an Animorphs book and yet makes perfect sense in your story.

The only thing I was going to point out was how out-of-character you've portrayed Cassie . . . but then I got to thinking, and actually that's an improvement, too.  :XD:

The Hork-Bajir and Taxxons will appear soon.

As far as Cassie, she's intuitive, empathic, an environmentalist, and she's attuned to her emotions. I just made her more confident.

 . . . I probably should have seen that coming.  :P  Yeerk Pool, and all.

Yeah, I guess you didn't actually change her that much, it's just so weird to see her and Jake in such a straightforward relationship.  It still makes sense that they would be, they are sixteen and that's the age where such things accelerate much more quickly than at the tender age of twelve.

Also, I can't get the quote "Hot dildo monkeys!" out of my brain.  There's a thing that original-books-Cassie would never say.  :P
