#Morro is defiantly emotionally unintelligent to say the least

[everyfandomsprincess]

Eyyy another person who sees Morro as a good kid!! Though this is less for movie AU bc I think he would've had more time to explore other avenues in the movie verse + he actually gets to be older and taller than the ninja whereas he's younger in show-verse. I know show!verse Morro is kind of a trash panda, but in post-S5 redemption AUs I always struggle to see him as someone always picking fights and cussing and being super goth and emo and "I hate Wu" and having panic attacks and guilt, etc. He will be a little shit to Wu when he wants, but he literally defaults back into being respectful afterwards. And alright he IS shown to have a remorseful and sad demeanor without saying the words, mostly I think there will be a lot of communication dodging and him smirking and trying to be unflappable around the other ninja, but different around Wu. So you have to crack his persona a bit to get into the carefully hidden issues he loves to convince himself he doesn't have. I also think he would struggle so much just to choke out the words "sorry" and actually mean it bc direct communication will literally kill him. He'll do literally anything else to prove himself as different but dear god is trying to get him into a sincere vulnerable redemption arc while simultaneously trying to address the elephant in the room like trying to get a struggling wet cat back into the bath.

Oh absolutely,

Morro definitely isn’t the kind of person to talk about any feelings wethers their his or others.

In an AU where he sticks around and joins the ninja I can definitely see him doing more acts of service to make amends with the others

With Wu I seen him as being distant. This is still that man that made him believe he was this special person for probably years. Then Morro also thought that Wu didn’t go looking for him after he left.

So I can see the two of them trying not to fall back into their old rhythm

Despite that I still think he would be very punctual and be too if his game with training. Like we always see the others tiered when they half to get up for training, but Morro? Morro’s already been up for at least an hour and has done his own stretches and training

He would most likely have guilt about his actions and feel remorseful but that would take a while to manifest. Or at the very least for the others to pick up on that and that his actions are a way he shows affection (wether that’s helping/saving the other ninja from danger or giving them good advice while training or not taking the last of the pudding from the fridge)

But Morro is shown to use the line between fearlessness and recklessness like a jump rope. I mean he made his home base on a village built directly above water! Y’know the one thing that can destroy ghost and is ultimately the entire realms downfall! So I can see him putting his life on the line more than once to prove his change to the others
