(As interesting as it would be to see Jake and Cassie's reactions to that, I think I'll pass. Especially after that speech..wow.)
Carson stared at Jackie in disbelief. "Y-You have one...in your head....right now?" He rubbed the back of his neck and said, "Okay, this is new. Um. How do I know I'm actually talking to you? And not the Yeerk? Does the Yeerk have a different tone or something?" Carson had NO idea how to react to that; he was letting it all sink in. If Mom and Dad knew, and she's not tied up, then Carson would have gotten in sooo much trouble if he had tried that. Besides, trying to tie his own big sister up, was not something he ever wanted to do. Carson looked back at Jackie, and said, "I admire you. I don't know if I ever could live with a yeerk in my head."

"Actually he does kinda, not really tone so much, but just the way he talks, the pattern or whatever you want to call it. I could have him come out so you can see it's me but right now we can at least show you this way.
A beat. "You needn't fear me. What Jackie says is true. Your parents will attest as well that I won't harm Jackie. I was not always this way, peaceful,but when I was given my former human partner, I slowly realized that I failed to see how a sentient creature could enslave another in that way and not be affected by its host's cries and pleas. Sadly, most of my fellows disagree."
"Me again. I do know what you mean. I get sick at the thought of going down...down there...and I'm finding it hard not to be scared in general. But I figure at least I'm helping the nly way I can in my situation. I'm just glad the peace movement worked it out...but a more serious point, you cannot tell anyone about this! I do not want to see you or our parents caught and...well you know. Neither of us can trust anyone these days."

Carson listened quietly as Jackie then Illim spoke. "I'm guessing your last host was a teacher?" he asked with all the vocabulary being in what he said.
Then Jackie came back and told him not to tell anyone. "Right. Yeah, won't do that. Getting caught would be a bad thing."
Then he said, "Okay, now that that's settled, let's go see if we can help Mom and Dad."

"Yeah. Sometimes I get homework hints if I'm lucky" Jackie laughed. "Apparently mom rode in his head during one of her missions to the yeerk pool. Yuck." She listened more, then said "yeah, we can talk more later. Let's go."

Carson shuddered, "Ew. But I guess if it was for a mission, it had to be done."
Then Jackie said "Let's go," and so he followed her outside and headed towards their mother's work.

"I'd love to morph someday but I hope to never do anything like that" replied Jackie. They went outside with her leading and Carson following, going toward Cassie's work.
