In the specific cases I mentioned, eversion means to turn the guts inside out.
Sea cucumbers (and related echinoderms like starfish or sea urchins) can do
this; some use it for self-defense, others use it as a way to get inside another
creature and digest it. Sort of like a tongue-lashing taken to extremes.
