1. Elfangor does not want to be a hero. He does not want to be in charge. He does not want to take care of everyone else who isn't his family. However, he's good at it, he knows he's good at it, and thus he does it.

2. He hates the Ellimist so very much and if he could actually manage it, would love to hit him with his tail blade.

3. Elfangor. Can. Drive. Anything. It does not matter what it is. It could be a tricycle and he'll find a way to drive it.

4. He has a fondness for kamikaze. Mostly because he got used to it since he was so angry leaving Loren and his son behind and didn't really care about surviving. Has the luck to never quite die when he does it though.

5. Really, when you think about it, Elfangor is a sexually deviant. After all, he did think Loren was quite pretty even before falling in love with her. He likes the blonde hair~!

6. He is one of only two nothlits who have ever regained the ability to morph. He was the only one who was able to return to his original form instead of using the nothlit form as his starting morph.

7. He's a natural when it comes to tail blade fighting.

8. He has a great faith for the ability of humans, children, and human children especially. After seeing Loren's epic, he believes that underestimating humankind was a bad idea.

9. Before coming onto Stacy, the only person he ever told about what happened to him during the incident with the Time Matrix and his disappearance was the captain of the ship he rescued after the Ellimist sent him back to the Andalites.

10. It took months, with Loren's help, before he stopped having weird reactions to food when he ate. Occasional bursts of pure unbridled joy still overcame him for his entire time as a human everytime he ate something with a lot of cinnamon in it.

Elfangor's attraction to Loren is technically bestiality. I still approve of and ship it hardcore.....does that make me a bad person? <3?

[escapednothlit.livejournal.com]

No because they are so awesome that they bypass any weirdness automatically~!

[jedimacguyver.livejournal.com]

It is true that their combined awesome reaches double platinum levels of anti-weirdness rays.

I declare that Elfangor and Obi-Wan need to become martial-arts buddies!

[escapednothlit.livejournal.com]

They totally should~! Though I'm not sure how well tail blade and light saber fighting would work well for training.

1. If Jake and Elfangor were to give him conflicting orders, Ax would follow Jake's. Unless it was really obviously stupid, but Ax trusts that Jake wouldn't do that.

2. He still has nightmares about playing Nuke Chicken with Visser Two and the Animorphs' home town.

3. He's better about the whole "taste" thing now. But if it's small enough and looks food-like, he'll spend some time deeply considering tasting it.

4. He wobbles between hero-worshipping and resenting Elfangor.

5. A teenage girl performed brain surgery on him once. In her barn. Okay, said barn had an operating room in it because the girl's dad ran a Wildlife Rehabilitation Clinic out of it, but still.

6. He hasn't told Elfangor about the Nuke Chicken because he worries that Elfangor will be disappointed in him.

7. He once ran into the captain of the Dome Ship he was on so hard that he knocked him over and bruised one of his eye-stalks. This Andalite was also a War-Prince and Elfangor's idol.

8. Since meeting the Animorphs, Ax has blown up a continent, fought a T-rex in his natural body and won, been stuffed in an Atlantean freezer, caused his worst enemy to dye himself purple, been kidnapped by an alien cloud from Saturn, eaten an entire tray of cinnamon buns, invented TiVo, fallen in love with a girl who could probably talk science with Brainiac 5, seen a single android destroy two dozen Hork-Bajir Controllers in ten seconds, lived with a Controller for three days while impersonating someone else, used oatmeal as a biological weapon, stood up to the Andalite High Command twice, been rescued by a pod of humpback whales, jumped out of a space ship two miles up in the air and successfully demorphed and remorphed before hitting the ground, and traveled through time twice. And that's not even all of it.

9. He can completely understand why Elfangor would become a human nothlit.

10. He's gotten used to being the "tech" guy for the Animorphs, and he's feeling a bit at loose ends with all of these genuine scientists around.

o1. Obi-Wan is not a virgin and has been in love twice. His first love was the Jedi version of a "Highschool Sweetheart." They later confessed their love as she died in his arms. The other was an affair with a senator_ technically, he hasn't much room to bitch about Anakin.

o2. He has two brothers, whom he once visited, out of curiosity. They never got along.

o3. Obi-Wan actually dislikes being called 'Ben.'

o4. He's ever had a pet, but he loves animals. If Obi-Wan ever did get a pet (presuming it wasn't some odd alien something, and discounting Anakin from the 'pet' category) he'd get a Shetland Sheepdog (http://cdn-www.dailypuppy.com/media/dogs/anonymous/jackson_shetland03.jpg_w450.jpg).

o5. Very secretly, Obi-Wan is mortified that Qui-Gon will soon realize he has a girlfriend. He's sure he'll get in trouble for it— but despite that, he's still not going to hide it.

o6. Until he saw Luke's projection of his death, he found Luke's obvious feelings for him to be a bit creepy, bordering on stalkerish. He's much better, now.

o7. Obi-Wan would kill to have his Jedi robes back. Sleeeveeesss! T_T

o8. Obi-Wan wants the memories from his universe's death. He feels that he owes it to all the dead to remember for them, to know how they died.

o9. He hates using the sensoriums, because it's too tempting to use them as surrogates for the things he's lost. For the same reason, he hesitates to ask Arha not to use them, as well. Obi-Wan is a big fan of letting people fight their own moral battles, and win or lose on their own merit.

1o. Obi-Wan knew all along about Anakin and Padmé. He might not have known how far things had gone, but he knew they were in love. Anakin Skywalker is just not that good of a liar.

o1. As a child, Motoko lost her entire family in a plane crash. She was one of twenty people to survive the crash, and of those only two survived the related injuries. She was in a coma for nearly a year, and though she could not move or open her eyes, was aware the entire time.

o2. She has no memory of her family, and went through the surgery to become a cyborg at the tender age of seven. For this reason, her emotional patterns are a little childish. For example, she hates losing with a fiery passion, and will go to stupid lengths to assure victory.

o3. Her visible body is actually a series of panels covering a much thinner inner bodyform like a turtleshell. She can lift these panels at will to reveal the underlying structure, and aside from the defensive shielding, the fact that they make her look human is a mainly cosmetic decision.

o4. How much of Motoko's brain is still flesh is left ambiguous. What's clear is that whatever portion of her body that's still physically human is probably not actually related to her consciousness, except in the abstract. She is capable of finding the computer processes that control the emotion-producing chemicals in her brain and turn them off. This provides her with a colder, more logical view of the world, and as a result she is slowly losing her ability to feel spontaneous emotions.

o5. If someone she loved ever told Motoko, with sincerity, that they loved her, she'd probably run for the hills and never, ever return. She seeks out rules and regulation, but cannot stand to be constrained. Childish emotions, again: it's safe for Motoko to love someone, and for them to love her, so long as no one says it aloud and makes it real.

o6. Her ego could outweigh a planet. It's not that she's prideful or arrogant, it's that she's better than you.

o7. She has had some commercial success running VR cross-immersion lesbian threesome porn on the net. Batou once walked in on one of these sessions.

o8. Motoko once did all her stealth work in nothing but a transparent body-stocking. Once thermoptic technology improved she put her clothes on, but there was never anything like the thrill of beating a heavily armed man into the dirt while technically naked.

o9. Her employers used to audit her thoughts. If they ever saw the memories of Stacy, they'd force her to delete the lot of them as anomalous. As a result of her own skill and Aramaki's meddling, she's no longer subject to this treatment: in exchange she will be killed when her employment is terminated, if at all possible.

1o. The Net is her Spice. If she were less stubborn, she'd ask Stacy to simulate it in the sensorium. As it is, she's just really annoyed and harrowed all the time, which results in her seeking out more social interaction to distract from how goddamn quiet everything is all the time. For someone used to having all of humanity talking over themselves in the back of her head, Stacy is a very silent place.

11. She will laugh if anyone is ever shocked when it comes out that she and Batou are not 'good people.' They are secret police, the kind who do midnight knocks and have unmarked vehicles specifically for daytime abductions.

o1. Jonas is completely capable of using contractions in his speech. He simply prefers not to.

o2. He knows entirely too much about what the Scarlet Witch looks like naked. Sometimes, having copies of all of one's predecessor's memories is a pain in the ass.

o3. He is a big Beatles fan and has all of their music stored in his memory banks. Along with all of the music Cassie likes. Not all of it is to his taste, but she likes it so he has it.

o4. When Jonas found out that Cassie had been kidnapped and the Pro-Registration heroes had not immediately gone after her, he very seriously considered walking right into Pro-Reg headquarters and bringing the whole thing down around their ears. But then he decided it would be a waste of time to go back to the U.S. and do that when he could be looking for Cassie.

o5. You know the saying 'never trust anyone over thirty'? Jonas pretty much lives by it. He thinks that it is a bit more elegant than 'eat it, grandpa'.

o6. It never actually occurred to him that the Avengers were not putting him on the adult team because he was effectively a teenager. He thought it was all about Kang and the previous Vision.

o7. In addition to the brain patterns from Nate, Jonas' personality also has touches of Victor Mancha, Chase Stein, and the adult Kang the Conqueror. He is not aware of that last one.

o8. Jonas and Nate are effectively identical twins, appearance-wise -- Jonas is just metallic.

o9. He has set up failsafes to prevent the problems that happened with the previous Vision from reoccurring. He has also set up some failsafes to prevent him from using all of the powers he technically has, because he does not want to draw Kang's attention.

1o. He is pretty much a tank. He almost took down Kang the Conqueror, a villain who fights and entire team of adult heroes, by himself. He also neutralized the Super-Skrull, a shape-shifting alien with all of the powers of the Fantastic Four, in about three panels.

BONUS 11. Jonas is incapable of not being desperately in love with Cassie Lang. Literally. The Vision programming was still copying Nate's brain-patterns over when Nate and Cassie met and fell for each other, and that feeling was included as part of Jonas' very personality. He is currently doing his best to own his love for her and be happy, and is praying like crazy that he never comes to resent her for it.
