hanging out with my narrative parallel !

i like the way em takes a second to just stare at morty here. like he doesn’t immediately close the door, he takes enough time for morty to step a bit into the room, worriedly turn back and start walking close enough to him that he flinches when the door almost shuts on his face, to just stand and look at him for a bit before he thinks he’ll never see him again. ive probably mentioned this before but i really do think just purely from seeing the way he was arguing with rick and how he tried to convince him to team up against their ricks and rescue all the mortys together that evil morty has had a fondness for morty prime since Forever

look at the way they just stare at eachother the entire time the ricks are speaking both enamoured by eachother because they represent something the other could never do/have, morty being instantly interested in what em’s deal is because of the villainous nature of his rick and him and his constant unchanging glare, him having the confidence and authority that morty himself wishes to have, and vice versa because of him standing up to rick while still retaining that good-willed nature mortys usually naturally have which is something that evil morty lost and will likely never feel again

also. i know em likely didnt even see it but i love the idea that he purposely does the hands on hips stance So Much because of morty prime. look!!!

s7e5 was so disappointing to me bc they completely sidelined morty and acted like there's some stark difference between morty and evil morty as if the whole conceit of EM isn't that he is literally just morty.

at his point of origin EM is not smarter, he's not crueler, he's not better, he's not worse, he's just c137 with about 20% less patience. EM has more knowledge because he HAD to learn as much as rick to finally overcome him, but overcoming rick was the impetus, and if c137 had that same drive, it would be completely possible. c137 has manipulated rick in exactly the same way that we see EM doing to his rick in the opening. c137 is just as smart and bitchy and fed up. he's just as good at fighting and flying the ship. morty c137 has not been the bumbling sidekick for many seasons, so why put him in that position now? just to make evil morty look way cooler than he is?

not to mention it's so out of character for morty not to read the fucking room at the end of the episode. morty canonically can dissect rick very well, so why is he acting cheery and ignorant now? it's not like the two of them to be so out of sync, not anymore. it was just so repellent to me... dragging my boy through the mud just to put evil morty on a pedestal... just to act like they aren't the same person at their core.

Man, I can’t believe I started writing this back in May. Can you guys believe I wrote an 11,771-long fic for a pairing that is so nonexistent we can’t even call it a rare pair that only my friend and I adore? Yes, yes, I did.😂 (Another edit by my sis).

"You obviously do care or else you wouldn't be bringing it up to me." She argued. This had been the last thing she'd been expecting. It filled her with a sense of unease. She felt anxious as hell. She shouldn't care this much.

Care this much that she's upset him even if unintentionally. She found herself gulping. Nervously toying with her jewelry as a distraction from her feelings. "I'm not toying with you or lying to you. It's different, Mortimer."

She didn't wanna give up on her hobby with the Ricks in question. Besides she wasn't lying just to make him feel better or to cover her own ask. She did see it differently. "Our dates are special. Because you're my boyfriend and also because you were the first person I showed that side of myself too."

Sure Morty had seen a little of what she was capable of when he watched as she killed her parents, but unless she was in a jealous rage he didn't see just how far she could go. Just how dark her nature was. How into torture and the sound of screams she was. Mortimer was the one who was first allowed to see her most sadistic and ugly parts.

"Our murder dates are special. What we have is special." How was he getting her to admit all this? Why was she panicking so much? "I didn't think this was something you would be jealous over. Does this mean if I shared this side of myself with our boyfriend you would see that as unacceptable too?" Probably even more so considering the romantic relationship at play. What he had to say last truly gutted her however. She could feel the walls closing in around her. "I'm sorry. I'll do something for you. Something that proves I can be a good girlfriend."

Morty hadn't really stopped to think about what Meg's reaction to his accusations could have been. He was annoyed, so her thoughts and feelings didn't really matter to him in that moment. And that was why he had initially planned to say his piece, pour some salt into the wound and then leave.

However, those intentions were quickly forgotten the moment he saw the girl panicking. Her nervous gesture, the restless body language, the growing anxiety in her voice. By the time the apology slipped from her lips, she was sounded like she was begging him.

The show of emotions caught him off guard and left him confused. Why was she so insistent? So desperate to make him understand, to reassure him of the meaningfulness of their outings? Where was it coming from?

A few moments of silence passed, the heavy tension hanging over their heads as Morty tried to find a proper answer to all that. Not just to Meg's words, but also to her behaviour. In the end, he turned around fully once again, taking a few steps towards her.

"You're not listening to me. I'm not jealous, I'm upset." She was really dumb at times. Her agitated state was no excuse for it. "What irks me isn't that you shared the activity with someone else in itself, but that you didn't tell me and made it sound like it was our thing. Something you did with me exclusively."

If she had used her brain, been more mindful, they would have never needed to have this conversation.

"Maybe you didn't mean to, but you led me on. Deceived me in a way. And that's something I do not tolerate. Also, you didn't consider how I might have reacted to it. You didn't think about me at all. You acted selfishly and were self-absorbed, and that's what makes you a bad girlfriend."

He closed the distance between them, grabbing her chin. His grip was firm, not enough to be painful, but it still felt like a punishment.

"You can share that part of you with whoever you wish, be it other me or his Ricks, it doesn't matter. But in exchange you have to prove yourself to me. Show me that what you said about it being 'special' aren't just empty words. Because that's what it sounds me right now."

@evilmcg sent; "I'm not exactly thrilled either. I just wanted to spend time with her but for some reason she insisted on bringing him. Just play nice for a little while. I promise I'll make it up to you okay?" evilmcg for emorty

Eyeing C-137, Morty wasn't impressed. He didn't enjoy the fact that he had to sit through this. When he could be hanging out with his other self. A much better alternate than C-137 could ever be. He didn't even know how he could fake it for however long the Megs wanted to hang out.

"Fine," He relented. "But make it quick, I don't want to be stuck with this boring excuse of a Morty."

"H-Hey, that's not cool to say, dawg! I-I'm not any lesser than you!"

[kuboyesuu]

Morty means so much to me you have no idea how much I miss him. The duo we deserved.

[fear-no-mort]

this didn’t make us friends

[thesoftboiledegg]

"Unmortricken" was a lot. In fact, it might have been a little too much.

To start, I loved the glimpse of what exists outside the Central Finite Curve. The visuals were stunning and reminded me of M.C. Escher's drawings. The Jetson-like family was a nice touch--if anything can happen, who says they can't have different animation styles? All those colorful portals make me wonder what's lurking just out of sight.

It's also funny that the space outside the Curve is full of Rick's favorite thing: crystals. If he took a trip there, he'd come back with his pockets stuffed with gemstones.

Evil Morty's reappearance gave us a decent character study. Since he wasn't the antagonist, we saw him interact with the C-137s as a regular person. Morty's a little impressed, and Rick has a grudging respect for him. Others have called Evil Morty the Rickest Morty, and I agree: similar intelligence, similar technology and similar bloodthirst.

I was glad that he left in the end because that's what his character arc is about anyway. He doesn't want to be part of anyone else's story, not even another Morty's.

However, that's also part of the issue that I had with this episode. Seeing Evil Morty was great, but it was also a little...pointless? You could've had the same story without him. He's not working with Prime, and he has no ties to C-137 after "Rickmurai Jack," so it felt like the writers just said "Hey, you know what would be cool?"

I'm not against writers having fun and giving the audience what they want. "Spider-Man: No Way Home" (yeah, groan at me, Marvel haters) is fan service in blockbuster form, and it was one of the best theater experiences I've ever had.

Still, if Evil Morty came back, I think he should've had a separate episode. The episode juggled C-137 Rick, Morty, Evil Morty and Prime Rick pretty well, giving them satisfying interactions with each other, but no Evil Morty would've meant more relationship development for the C-137s.

Evil Morty's backstory also didn't reveal much about him. I mean--yeah, we all figured that he had an abusive Rick and got fed up. The fact that he had a "regular" Rick instead of a deranged lunatic does make a point about the banality of abuse. Monsters aren't always raving maniacs who torture people in their basements. Ordinary people can wear you down with a slow drip of toxicity and neglect.

I enjoyed this episode, and Evil Morty's return was exciting, but cramming the series' two biggest antagonists and storylines into twenty minutes was a little overwhelming. New plot developments kept showing up, too: Rick found Prime! Prime's various lairs! Omega device! I would've preferred a two-parter.

I'll admit that if you told me that we'd see Evil Morty and Rick Prime in the same shot, I never would have believed you, but here we are.

On that note, Prime's characterization was perfect. No attempt at a cutesy, sad backstory; he's a laughing monster until the end. And is it really the end? He has regeneration abilities, but C-137 acts like he's dead and even gives up the search. This leaves us with a few options:

C-137 killed him.

Prime fooled C-137 into thinking that he's dead when he isn't.

C-137's keeping him alive for later use.

Hopefully, this is more complicated than it looks because I'll be disappointed if this is the end of Prime. He's a brilliant reflection of C-137: the Rick he'd be without his tiny shred of humanity.

And Prime's a maniac, but he tells C-137 the truth. Rick broke into Prime's house. He pretended he belonged with this group of strangers. He latched on to Prime's grandson because he never had his own. His brutal, violent streak never went away no matter how long he tried to play house.

Prime says "Admit it! You would have been me!" In season three and parts of season four, Rick was close. His love for his family--love that he pretended he didn't have--and desire for their approval just barely pulled him back. But what kept that spark alive? How close was he to becoming a cold, unfeeling shell?

In the end, C-137's not satisfied after he destroys Prime--and weirdly, I'm not satisfied, either. Beating Prime to an unrecognizable pulp doesn't bring Rick's original family back. It doesn't erase the atrocities that Rick's committed. It doesn't make his grief go away. It doesn't change the fact that Rick teetered on the edge of turning into the monster that he despised.

What's more satisfying is that Rick didn't turn out like Prime. His Morty doesn't give two shits about Prime, but he loves him. He hugs him in relief (come on, Rick, hug him back already!), cries out "Rick? Rick!" and shakes his body when he thinks he's dead, and talks excitedly as they return home.

Rick's going to therapy, which Prime would have mocked. He went from having nobody to living with FIVE kids if you count Morty and Summer. Even he and his Jerry are pretty tight.

Rick knows this, but he still feels empty all the time. Vengeance doesn't work, drinking doesn't work...wouldn't it be easier if he just switched off his humanity and laughed at everything, even his own death?

But now that he knows how it feels to be loved, especially by his hypothetical grandson, I think he'll always find himself at the Smiths' doorstep.

[countlessrealities]

Truth to be told, Mortimer wasn't exactly eager to see the effect of whatever had been conditioning his behaviour that day ending, even if for very different reasons. While he generally hated any kind of loss of control, coming down from that "high" would mean being faced with everything he had done with Meg and for her that afternoon.

It didn't take much to guess that he would have hated every second of those memories.

That, however, was a problem for the future. Right now his mind was still under the effect of that mysterious phenomenon, so he found that he would rather focus on the present and on his current company for a little longer.

The president stepped inside the portal right after the girl, ready to say his goodbyes, but Meg was faster, speaking up before he could. The words caught him by surprise and even more did the genuinely heartfelt tone she used.

Had he been in the right state of mind, he would have found it all very ironic. In that moment, instead, his thoughts were distracted by the touch of her lips against his cheek and by the attractive blush that was once again adorning her face.

"Yes? Good. It means that I've achieved my goal then," he answered, reaching out to take her hand. "To gift a lovely afternoon to an equally lovely lady."

He brushed his mouth against the back of her hand, allowing the kiss to linger perhaps for a split second too long, before gently dropping it.

"Have a good night, Meg," he added then, taking a step back and opening another portal. "I'll see you around...hopefully sooner rather than later."

And with that, he was gone, swallowed by the green light of the vortex that closed behind him immediately after.

This felt almost like a dream. Which made sense considering just who mortimer was and just what their relationship was like on a regular basis. Them getting along this well only seemed possible in a dream or dream like state. If it had been up to meg this kind of dynamic would last much longer. She didn't know what caused this change in behavior from him but she didn't want it ending anytime soon.

Alas it wasn't as if she had any say in it. There were unknown circumstances at play here and she would have to deal with the aftermath of this date later on.

Meg let herself enjoy the rest of their date. Even if neither called it that it was what it felt like atleast to her. She hummed happily as she continued eating her snacks. Despite their strange appearance that would gross others out meg still found them to be delicious.

It also just felt nice to have the boy's full attention. While usually that would be something she would either fear or atleast be hesitant to trust but here it felt nice. It felt much like a drug that she wanted more of.

"Thank you." She spoke as she stepped through the portal. That would probably be the last time for quite a while that the girl would use such manners with him. "I've really enjoyed my day with you mortimer." Her words were sincere and her expression was lovestruck. The pink blush clear on her face. With that she gave him a quick peck on the cheek to show her gratitude and affection.

Their dynamic is just so interesting to me, not just in a romantic way. I wanna see them interact more damn it. Also I will never get over the fact selfcest is canon in this show.

I headcanon Evil Morty uses the name Morvil. It's easier to use, plus it's sorta cute.

Anyways, Morty falls first, Morvil falls harder.

[t0rturedangel]

Ohhh since you're writing for him could you write something about evil morty being jealous/possessive with the reader (in a romantic relationship) please and thank you!

⠀⠀⠀: ᯓ 𝟎𝟎𝟐.⠀ EVIL MORTY SMITH X READER

› 〉 𝟎𝟎𝟑. SYNOPSIS, Evil Morty is one hell of a bf, his jealousy and possesiveness is crazy.

› 〉 𝟎𝟎𝟒. WARNINGS, Evil Morty, maybe a bit ooc, threats / threats of violence, ect

› 〉 𝟎𝟎𝟓. AUTHOR'S NOTES, Happy to do another rick and morty request! I hope this one is good- i'm not too good when it comes to writing for characters like him but I'll try! ALSO SOME WORDS MIGHT BE SPELT WRONG

🜸 ㅤ▎ㅤ▍ㅤUnlike RICK, EVIL MORTY is well aware that he can get jealous and possesive over you- in fact most Morties are aware of that fact, and well you cant exactly blame them, love is something they dont get often, and when they do it doesn't last.

🜸 ㅤ▎ㅤ▍ㅤSo it is no surprise that when you began to date EVIL MORTY, he was quick to become jealous and bitter to all other morties (even more than he already is). After all, now that your his significant other, others may be prone to want to go after you which is something that will bother EVIL MORTY.

🜸 ㅤ▎ㅤ▍ㅤThis especially happens during his presidental run, now that he's making himself and, ultimately, you public- many would be bound to try and get you away from him for various reasons. Though don't worry too much, EVIL MORTY has it all sorted- pull a few strings and the rouge morties that tried to even interact with you will be gone, like they never exsisted.

"Morty.." you called out, staring at your boyfriend who was currently sifting through various files, persumebly all to do with the votes and campaign as he was running for president in the citadel- something you heavily encouraged because it would be good to have a new, democraticly elected, leader for the citadel and hey, if morty needed any help or things got to stressful you'd be able to help (I mean how hard can it be?). "Yeah [name]?" He lifted his head up, staring at you with a quirked brow, clearly wanting you to continue though under his gaze you felt slightly uncomfortable- jeez when did your boyfriend become so damn scary? "Do you know what happened to the two Morties that jumped me the other day? I was searching for them coz I found out they were trying to make bootleg portal fluid but they were gone" you picked at the skin around your nails, avoiding your Morty's gaze nervously though your attention was quickly brought back to him when he sighed "Don't worry about them [name], they've been dealt with..... now come on- can you help me with these papers" he smiled at you, gesturing to the seat next to him which you quickly sat down on. You can only assume that Morty sent the cops after them, and that they're now in prison.

🜸 ㅤ▎ㅤ▍ㅤLet's say you're evil with him, meaning that you agree with what he does, and so when you met c-137 Rick and Morty you too pretened to be normal until you didn't- you were the first person the two were introduced to as you sat with them to eat food before evil morty appeared. Both of you then confessing to the fact that you hated ricks and the citadel.

🜸 ㅤ▎ㅤ▍ㅤIf you were 'evil' like him, then it would be perfect- because then he would be able to leave everything behind with you! Which is brilliant coz that means it will be just the two of you together, no one else trying to disturb your relationship (until season seven episode five).

🜸 ㅤ▎ㅤ▍ㅤOverall, EVIL MORTY is a little extreme when it comes to his jealousy- he doesn't like being jealous so he takes care of the problems quickly and swiftly, the quicker the better.

While I was lurking the tags, I saw the Rick & Morty ship graph where you rated all your ships & I was so happy to see someone else loved Morty/Summer (SumMorty? Is that their ship name?) I thought I was the only one! Made me so happy. I wish there was more art & things for them.

OOOO, hello there, little lurker-loo, yes, I definitely love Summorty (it is the ship name; I call it that as well). I know, I love them so much, and I wish there was more art too. I definitely have fics I want to write for them too, and if you like Summorty, I also ship Evil Morty with Summer. My best friend introduced me to the ship between Evil Morty and Summer, and it’s a favorite of mine as well.
