No More Secrets Meme
Good evening meatship, I bring you your Friday meme!
No More Secrets
1. All of your character's darkest and most embarrassing secrets, the ones that they have been holding back from the crew, are now common knowledge.
2. Since not everyone knows everyone's canon, comment with your character and a bulleted list of the things they have been holding back from the crew. These can be funny things (that time I ran around with my underwear outside my pants), embarrassing things (Little Black Book-type secrets) or the dark things they never wanted anyone to know.
3. Other characters react to these sudden revelations about your character. Will it change the way people feel about each other?
IMPORTANT: PLEASE POST WARNINGS IN THE SUBJECT LINE IF SOMETHING IN THE COMMENT IS TRIGGERY. This meme has the potential to be a lot more dramatic than our usual fare, and I want to make sure everyone is comfortable.
Muns, have fun! Characters... well, I'm not sure "fun" applies.

Marco
it would probably be easier to list the things he doesn't hold back, I'll just note the major points here...- Marco can morph
- from the age of 13 to 16 he was a guerrilla fighter fighting against the Yeerks. Lots of killing, blowing up stuff, morally dubious actions, etc etc.
- in the beginning, he didn't want to fight. He only kept fighting because he found out his mother was a Controller at first.
- and speaking of his mother, when he was 11 she apparently 'died'. Then it turned out she was really a Controller and infested by Visser One. Then later on Marco nearly ended up basically plotting to kill her because he couldn't figure out any way of actually freeing his mother. Except he couldn't actually kill her in the end. Also there was much emotionally falling apart going on. ADN THEN he ended up saving her, only for her to convince him to let her get reinvested so they could stop all-out war on Earth. FUN TIMES.
- After Eva 'died', his father basically fell apart and sat on the couch for two years, leaving Marco to essentially take care of himself and his father. And then later on his father married Marco's maths teacher (THE HORROR!), not knowing that Eva was actually still alive and slug-infested.
- he also didn't try to save his step-mother from being infested as much as he should have (hello guilt!), and also lied to his father about how long she'd been a Controller for because deep down he wanted his parents back together again.
- he's morphed humans without their permission before, and would do it again if he needed to
- he nearly got stuck in morph as a giant flea. Nooooot fun.
- he tried to kill Iniss on the ship along with the other Animorphs, Loren, & Elfangor. And given the opportunity, he'd try it again.
- he has also been working as a spy on the ship, for Kang.
- he never got a girlfriend at all until he was 16 and the war was over. And after that he mostly managed to get them by pure virtue of being REALLY REALLY FAMOUS
- he drives like a maniac and only got his license through bribery
- he's self conscious about his height
- the Animorphs come before anyone else, and Jake comes before the other Anis. Sorry guys, but given a choice he'll save them over you.
- also, Rachel is dead in the future! Apart from Ax, Marco has neglected to tell anyone this.
oh god this has gone on forever I'M STOPPING NOW OKAY
