Visser three (in eight-headed dragon morph): <prepare to be burninated, andalite bandits>

Helmacrons: We want... a shrubbery
Cassie: A what?
Helmacrons: Ni! Ni!

Jake (to trainee auxiliaries): Now where we left of last week how to defend yourself against a controller armed with a piece of fresh fruit.
Auxiliary1: You said we wouldn't do fruit this week.
Jake: what's wrong with fruit you think you know it all eh? Well I'll tell you something kid if your out on a mission and some controller comes after you with a batch of raspberries don't come crying to me. Now this week the passionfruit...
Auxiliaries: We've done the passionfruit.
Jake: What about cherries?
Auxiliaries: yeah.
Jake: red AND black
Auxiliaries: yeah. We've done blueberries, blackberries, mangos in syrup, grapes, apples, lemons, limes, and dragonfruit
Jake: alright then. Bananas we haven't done them have we.

Marco: *bringing his latest finished book to the barn for the other Animorphs to proofread before handing off to KAA for publication* "Hey, lady, do I really have to keep up this whole 'I can't tell you my last name' thing? I mean, I'm Visser 1's host's son. I think the Yeerks can figure it out.

KAA: "Yes, you do. They don't know which son."

Cassie: "Katherine, Marco's her only son."

KAA: "They don't know that."

Marco: "... yes, they do. You DO understand how Yeerks work, right?"

Jake: *muttering* "I'm pretty sure he's her only son named Marco, anyway..."

Rachel: "They might be able to figure out who Cassie and I are too, actually."

KAA: *shakes head* "Not a chance"

Tobias: <... no, I think she's right. I mean, Rachel's the best friend of Chapman's daughter, and Cassie's the daughter of the head vet at the Gardens and the guy runs the Wildlife Rehab Clinic.>

KAA: "Look, do you kids want me to get your story out to the world or not?"

Marco: "I think I'd rather live long enough to get a driver's license"

KAA: "Just give me that book!" *lunges at Marco*

Jake: "Ax! Stop her!"

Ax: <With pleasure, Prince Jake> *knocks KAA out with his tailblade*

*The Animorphs all look at each other, and back at her, lying on the ground*

Cassie: "... Now what do we do?"

Cassie: Booyah!

Know I haven't posted on here for a very long time, but I had to comment on this.  The sad thing is I never actually realised the massive plot hole that that represents until now.  KASU much??

I always assumed they were diaries not being published during the war.

Tobias: <So ummm... Cassie... about that Rachel morph you have...>

The "diary" theory would work fine if not for the intro. "They could be anyone. Your veterinarian. Your milk man. The ugly drunk man in the park. My brother is one." The intro pretty clearly sets the books up for a reader, and they were pretty clearly set in current times when written, so you don't have the excuse that they're about a war that's already past, either.

On the other hand, I'm pretty sure it's the kind of thing nobody ever notices, at least at first, so I'd say it worked out pretty well.

There's also the question of how Rachel was able to narrate in the early parts of The Beginning-right up until just before her own death.  That "we're actually writing this" thing was never very well thought out.

Any of the Animorphs: I can't tell you my last name, or where I live.  Not that that will prevent the yeerks from finding us all in a matter of minutes if they get their hands on this stuff.  And even if they don't find us, we've also revealed a bunch of secrets integral to our security, some of which we do not intend to tell to anyone, ever, even if we win this war someday.  But we like to feel like we're being even vaguely careful when we write all of this stuff down.

I still say that Cassie had multiple personality disorder and just hallucinated the whole thing. :P

Whoa... I could totally see that. Cassie needed to dream up the war and the other Animorphs so she had a way to break out of her little shell and do all the things she couldn't because of her moral set. Sort of like Cameron in Ferris Buellers Day Off, but way more intense...
