The famous Animorphs slogan, better dead than a controller.
I used to cheer at that win I was young and agree, but now I hesitate. I don't deeply fear death, but I'm not looking forward to it. Life is life, and any life has some hope.
So really, if your options where a guy with a dracon beam pointed at your head in one head, and a Yeerk in a jar in the other, which, really, do you pick?
