Quotes from Animorphs Megamorphs #1 The Andalite's Gift

While I am now using more quotes in my Animorphs Re-Read and each chapter I cover has a quote from the chapter at the start of talking about that chapter, there are a lot of good Animorphs quotes. Too many to fit comfortably in a Re-Read.

So below are some gems from the seventh chapter, narrated by Tobias, from the first Megamorphs book!

The normal lifespan of a Yeaflon is 2,000 years. When a Yeaflon gets around 900 years old they aren't given another off planet mission and are usually called back to Vulch that they can teach the next generation. However, if the Yeaflon is already on an off planet mission when they're around 900 years old, they are allowed to finish it.

There are a few Yeaflon that have reached 5,000 years. They are a rarity, though.

Noah's Death

Now I don't tend to cry during tv shows or yell out during emotional scenes. I like to be quiet, especially if there are other people around me. I don't know why, that's just the way I am. But Noah's death...that was just...wow. I am still reeling from it and I've had time to quiet down.

I review The Walking Dead episode "Try".

I talk about how I ran across this film, when I saw this film, and the plot of the movie.

I talk about the Helix episode "Mother".

Thank you to everyone that visited this blog and so helped to raise this lovely dragon!

While I am now using more quotes in my Animorphs Re-Read and each chapter I cover has a quote from the chapter at the start of talking about that chapter, there are a lot of good Animorphs quotes. Too many to fit comfortably in a Re-Read.

More Info HERE

Subeta is getting some brand new fancy items. Specifically, the Subeautique is having new items released. The Junko designer is releasing a new line called Encase. This line seems to be very...bugish. Specifically beetle related items. Most of the items appear to be a shade of blue.

Update: Another giveaway has come and gone. This time any unclaimed eggs were hatched and then 'Part 2' started with the hatchlings being given away. As both hatchlings were quickly taken, I will do the same next giveaway. If you can't wait for the next giveaway, on the Dragon Cave Forums I give an egg away at a time (might also be trying the hatchling thing with that too). There are also other boards on the forums where people give away and trade eggs.

If you are interested in what my 'dragon army' is go HERE. I would like feedback on this never ending project of mine.

I would adore feedback about what you liked/didn't like about this giveaway. Also if you want to comment about Alien 5 please do so.

If you want your artwork to be featured in the next giveaway go HERE for more info.

I would say I'm more of a xenomorph fan than an Alien fan. I like the series, but as long as the movie has xenomorphs in it, I'm bound to cut it some slack. Heck, I even like Alien Resurrection. Neill Blomkamp will be directing the next Alien movie. It will be after Aliens and may even make Alien 3 something Ripley dreams while in hypersleep.

Blomkamp is most known for District 9 and got great praise for the movie. Elysium seemed to have more mixed reviews. Chappie doesn't seem to have many supporters. I have not seen all of District 9 and Chappie so all I can say is I hope any negative reactions from Chappie isn't a forewarning of what Alien 5 will be like.

Figuring my blog readers should get something that I can actually give away.

If you don't already have a Dragon Cave account, you can sign up for one if raising dragon eggs interests you. If you already have an account, pick an egg at will. If you don't have an account and don't want one, please share this with a friend that does.

Here are the eggs this time around:

I decided on this little beauty to be the new egg on the side. I sort of consider them to be the Hork-Bajir breed on Dragon Cave.

Remember that you still have a chance to name it HERE and you can view the benefits of doing so HERE.

Shipping Confessions: Tobias/Bruce Banner (Animorphs/The Avengers)

Well this is a new thing to be covered on Shipping Confessions. This is the first ever crossover ship covered in this series! Now crossover ships are not a new thing and there is a whole section on fanfiction.net for these types of fanfics. You just take characters from one or more series and then you put them together. Awhile back I wrote a post about how Tobias and Bruce Banner were similar. Well that connection between the two eventually lead me to shipping the pair.

I joked about shipping them and then I seriously started shipping them, proving that I can't do crackships (aka ships that you joke for fun but don't truly believe).

Animorphs is a series about six teenagers, one being an alien, trying to stop an alien invasion until backup can arrive. It's actually very dark and deep for a YA series.

The Avengers is a movie where superheroes team up to stop an alien invasion.

I will be talking about the non-canon pairing of Tobias (Animorphs) and Bruce Banner (The Avengers).

I talk about The Walking Dead episode "Spend".

Rachias of the Blue Flames (Jash's Dragon Army)

This dragon has been named: I named him Rachias of the Blue Flames for a few reasons. The first is that no one sent in a name suggestion so I named him myself. The second is that someone else already named their dragon Rachias. The third is that the 'blue flames' is in reference to Tobias being sad over Rachel Berenson's death. Oh, I should've mentioned that the dragon is named after the Tobias/Rachel Berenson ship from the Animorphs series sooner.

The bio I have planned for him is:
