How many of you would be voluntary controllers?
« on: June 20, 2008, 07:49:13 PM »
At one point we are told 60% of the members of the sharing are voluntary controllers, so I pose this question to you

Depends on the Yeerk. If it's one of the Yeerks that will torture a host for no apparent reason, then no, definitely not. If it's one of the members of the peace movement, or one that simply doesn't care, then maybe.

hmm...maybe. I don't mind not having a choice in the decisions I make. Whenever I do have a choice it hurts my head thinking about which to choose.

Did this start up because of what I said in another thread?

Having someone in my head to help me ace tests, and cause fewer accidents at work would be cool. It would also be cool to fly through outerspace with a Yeerk to help me fly.

Why is Visser Three's tail blade backwards, anyway? Ax and Elfangor's tailblades pointed forward, but Alloran's tailblade curves back.

Sorry for offtopic-ness.

It wouldn't be so bad if it was a member of the peace movement. Might even be good company.

So basically:

During the war, I wouldn't have been voluntary, but I'd try to negociate with my Yeerk to join the peace movement. If he agreed, I'd become voluntary. If he didn't agree, and continued to try and break me, then I'd fight him.

After the war, I imagine that the Yeerks were allowed to keep their voluntary hosts, and anyone willing to become hosts could do so, and have special conditions. If the Yeerk didn't agree to those conditions, then too bad, no host for you! In that case, I'd be a voluntary on the condition that I could stay on Earth, and have control when I'm with my loved ones.

I would never want to be infested by a Yeerk in the first place. I prefer privacy.  :)
Good or Bad Yeerk, I'll never want one, even if it meant a higher understanding and intelligence, (two minds work better than one, right?)

I'm just a writer, and my main goal was always to entertain. But I've never let Animorphs turn into just another painless video game version of war, and I wasn't going to do it at the end. I've spent 60 books telling a strange, fanciful war story, sometimes very seriously, sometimes more tongue-in-cheek. I've written a lot of action and a lot of humor and a lot of sheer nonsense. But I have also, again and again, challenged readers to think about what they were reading. To th

I would never be a voluntary controller, and anyone who would is essentially selling out the entire human race. If I did get taken and my Yeerk happened to be part of the Yeerk peace movement (or if I could convince my Yeerk to join) then I wouldn't fight, but besides that I'd fight until I was free or dead. I'm not going to let some evil slug steal my life.

If the Yeerk were a real butthead I'd fight, but I hate to say it, I'd probably be voluntary x3 Maybe it's just the idea of knowing there's life out there besides us.  Maybe the Yeerk would be interesting company if it were a decent person.  But then again, I'd probably never buy into the culty stuff in The Sharing, too creeptastic.  I'd want them to come out and say, yes, we are aliens  ;D  And even then, I probably wouldn't believe them unless they physically showed me evidence.  Like shoving my head into sludgy water, that'd be greeeeat.
