Vegimorphs!!

But yeah there isn't really a point, except maybe to blend in somewhere like in a forest or garden but then you can't hear or see anything anyway and might as well morph a roach or something.

Why?

Because I would *love* to know what a plant's "mind" is like. How they perceive the world.

I secretly believe Cassie morphed trees on a regular basis. :P

wait.... waitwait.

i could swear that there was some sort of spoof like that, back when animorphs were still coming out. something.... about a carrot. they were DEFINITELY morphing vegetables.

in any case.... i'm ditto-ing 'why'. maybe rachel could have morphed catnip in #2- rather than a rodent- in order to catch Fluffer (or whatever that creature's name was). and plant morphing might have made a nice science experiment for school. but... no, i would not have fought off the yeerk invasion with single-celled organisms.

i take that back. germ warfare? but what would you do when you multiplied? UGH. no. double-take-back. none of that.


(also, triple take-back. i suppose that was all covered under the morphing bacteria thread, now that i bother reading it.)

I don't see it being all that possible. Sure, plants do contain DNA, but I don't know if it'd be enough... And the whole brain/mind thing. The only way it's been possible so far was when Crayak made his proposal to Rachel and even then, that morph seemed bio-organic. Probably the closest you could get is by morphing a Warhammer 40k Ork :P

Exellent question, though.
I wonder if spring would reset the morph clock for a nothlit?

i thought about that, too.... but if you think of it, ants' brains don't have much in way of capacity for human thought, either.

maybe the brain matter still operates out in Z-space and brainwaves are transmitted to and from the morphed animal. *shrug*

If you morphed, say, a tree, would your roots be above ground?

...if you morphed a marijuana plant, could your friends pick the leaves and smoke you?
