I think I might just take this up, I've got a couple of ideas. Not to mention all the stuff I read into the characters over the years, this could work... *Sits in Thinking Chair*

Oh cool, you have a Thinking Chair too!  ;D

Where can I find you're fanfic?

Well I've finished the first one and I've posted the first 3 chapters of the sequel, I'm working on the 4th chapter as I type. I've also posted it on fanfiction.net but I always post here first.

Okay, so I've worked out a general outline and there's going to be a few key changes. There's going to be another Animorph, the David saga is going to be a bit more dark, It's not going to be Instant oatmeal, and I'm definitely going to have something about Marco and Jake's friendship as a plot point along the way. Not to mention plots involving Cults, non-yeerk alien experiments, and 'Sec-12'.

This is gonna be fun. ;D

Edit: I won't actually post the stories themselves here since they're going to be a bit mature. What I'll probably do is set up a site and have them as PDF's.

Sounds awesome! I'd read it! Not sure about the Marco/Jake thing if you mean what I think you mean though. I have nothing against it, but I can't see it happening with those two.

It's not going to be exactly what your thinking, at least I don't think it will. I just can't help but notice that there's some subtext on one end and that's all I'm going to say about it.

Okay, so I'm going through and picking out only a few of the books to work with so that I can fit it into a few less books. I'm also combining the David arc and rewriting it in a megamorphs style with shifting view points each chapter rather then a book for each character.

So yeah, this thing's happening.

I was thinking about doing something like this too, not rewriting the whole series, but just doing a mid story book but include drugs and sex and more death and stuff, could be fun

Converting the David arc into a Megamorphs book is a great idea. It could have been Magemorphs 3! Then M3 would have become M4 and M4 could be wiped from existance!

LOL, hey I kinda liked MM4.

BTW, I like your story! I love how it seemed to start off as a prologue and ran right into the story, classic. Also, THANK you for showing some attention to Cassie. Way too often I read fanfictions that practically ignore her all together (since a lot of people dont like her).

Also, is it me, or am I already sensing some chemistry? I like it!

Yes! But because only 16 books was translated into my language and I want an end. I still haven't had time to find out the original ending...

swedish eh, hmm

you can just download the ebooks and run them through a translator online, then you can read them all

or just use them to learn english lol that would be pretty sweet if animorphs helps you learn a language lol

Don't read my fic then. The very first sentence is a spoiler! In fact, you should be very cautious around all the Animorphs threads in case of spoilers.

MM4 was okay, but I wasn't a big fan of it. Maybe it's because the other three Megamorphs books were so great that MM4 just didn't seem up to scratch.

And thanks for reading my fic. I know a lot of people don't like Cassie, but I don't feel that way. I did occasionally find her annoying, but for the most part she was a very deep and interesting character, and the moral conscience of the group.

As for what you said about chemistry, I refuse to comment on that. However, I will admit that I have a serious love interest planned for Mike. If you want to discuss it further, post in the feedback thread, or just send me a PM.

OK, will do.

Also, to anyone else who might be looking at this thread, I highly recommend you check out Phoenix's story (if you haven't already). I'm already hooked.

LOL, it's too bad you weren't around when KA was hiring her ghost writers.
