Well I got kind of side-tracked poking at all these things...
I tried out Genderhazard's morphing idea; long story short it won't work. Morphing programs are for photographs, not drawings- and I suspect any experienced morpher could have told me this and saved me a headache.
I tried working on the Ran TG animation, but I'm having a lot of trouble with it. Flango, it looks like you recopied and re-resized from Test-0's original for every frame of the ear-growth animation; and the copies all came out slightly different sizes. I don't know how to eliminate the wobble without redrawing the ears from scratch on a new sample. If you have some working images that you didn't resize I could work from those- otherwise I'm just gonna have to reproduce your work.
Anyway, after bouncing around on some animation related articles on Wikipedia, I got some new ideas, yanked Flango's new avatar, and came up with what you see below.
Flango, if you feel like redrawing that wink on [Hmmm!]'s original sequence, without resizing it, I could put the whole thing together with fade effects and I bet it would look fantastic.
What would be really, really awesome, would be if [Hmmm!] could draw a new 'before' image for the sequence with Flango looking normal and not gut punched already. [Hmmm!], you up to it?
Now I'm gonna go look for my old GIF optimizer- this animation is way too big.
(Argh. I never know whether forum posts should be in second or third person.)
EDIT: File optimized! Still too big to be a forum avatar, though. I'll need to prune it a little...
EDIT: Okayyy... somehow the optimizer corrupted the file. Going back to the old behemoth version.
