What kind of controller would you be?
« on: January 08, 2011, 10:39:37 AM »
If you were the host to a Yeerk, what would you do?
Would you try to make friends with the Yeerk, fight for control, constantly annoy him/her, or what?

Personally I think I would probably fight for control at first, and eventually just start teaching the Yeerk the "The Song That Never Ends", though if I were in a life or death situation(e.g the yeerk pool is going to blow up in 5 minutes) I would probably give the Yeerk helpful advice because I just have that survivor mentality.

I guess it depends on if you're a voluntary controller or not.

I tend to be an opportunist. I don't know if I'd be strong enough to overpower the Yeerk's control for even a second, but I would definitely give it a shot whenever I believed it would give me the advantage.

More or less, I'd pray to land a Visser or a Subvisser as my Yeerk. Heck, a member of the Council of Thirteen would be cooler because what would the odds be of me getting placed in any real danger?

I think I would pull a Barney Stinson and just say "moist" over and over again.

It really is an annoying word. :P
The universe is, instant by instant, re-created anew. There is, in truth, no Past, only a memory of the Past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. The only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.

I would probably fight at first and then lose hope. I'm not sure what I would do then.

I figure I'd try to escape at first. If my Yeerk wasn't totally evil like Visser Three, I might try to come to some kind of agreement with him. If all else fails, I'd annoy him so bad he'd kill me out of anger. Hopefully not in the most painful way he can imagine.

     I doubt the Yeerk Empire would dispose of a host body simply out of annoyance. They'd probably slap you around a bit, or give you to another Yeerk who is good with verbal threats.

Most of them, at least. Not everyone is as trigger happy as Visser Three.

What kind of controller would you want to be?

     Imagine that you're a Yeerk in the Animorphs universe. It doesn't really matter what rank you'd be, but sub-vissers and vissers tend to get a monopoly on class three and five hosts. But, if you were a Yeerk, and we lived in an Empire where any Yeerk could have his pick of host body, what host would you want?

     We have a wide selection of Hork-Bajir, Taxxon, Human, Sstram, Mak, Nahara, Leeran, Gedd, Garatron and many more that I can't seem to remember at the moment.

Hork-Bajir probably. I imagine they'd be easier to get along with. Andalites would be cool, even if they didn't have morphing ability, but trying to coexist with one would be a real pain.

    You freaked me out for a second there, Phoenix. I literally thought I was going crazy.
