I originally smeared the edges to do less work on the background, but I think it turned out adding a lot to the emotional content of the picture. I included a close-up of his eyes to show the reflection of his discovery of all of Prime's locations more clearly. I'm also absolutely addicted to this look on him now 🤤

Update: I decided to add a dark version:

wlaburga: Do you seriously think your better than me?

Sirius/regulus: Merlin I hope so!

SEASON 6 EPISODE 9

"Now do you want me to help you?"

[darkforze]

This was meant to be a response to an anon ask, but unfortunately I lost the original draft and the ask along with it. The anon was asking how I thought Morty and Prime would interact if Prime had showed up before c137 even had the chance, and how that would change the show. Warning that this ended up being kinda long, it's a concept I love thinking about.

I think when it comes to imagining what Prime and Mortys dynamic would be like, a big part of it comes down to how you view Prime as a character. Is he a sadistic egomaniac with no regard for others? Or a man who's ego runs so deep he considers himself a God, isolating himself from those he deems inferior to the point you could consider his existence lonely? I personally view him more like the latter.

Honestly, I can't really picture Prime taking Morty on adventures all the time like c137 does. Prime works alone, and I think he'd find Mortys more upstanding morals irritating, especially if Morty tried to get in the way of some of his more questionable research. Some dialogue in Unmortricken seems to suggest Prime views Mortys as what they really are. Kids.

I think he'd find the idea of dragging a teenage boy along with you to constantly belittle and force to do your bidding pretty pathetic. A true genius Rick like himself would have no need for a human brainwave cloaking device.

The way I picture Prime first meeting Morty is him returning to his dimension shortly after Morty is born to make sure there's no way someone (potentially a vengeful Rick looking for him) could use the kids dna to trace back to him. After making sure that wouldn't be a possibility he'd be about to portal away when the sound of the Smiths arguing in another room would cause the infant to start crying. Prime decides to at least get the kid some food to get him to shut up. It is his grandson, after all. He tells himself after he leaves it's just a one-time thing.

Except he keeps going back. He doesn't trust his estranged daughter and her sad excuse of a husband to give the little thing the care he needs. Prime doesn't exactly want the kid to starve. Morty is his grandson, a descendant of his greatness.

As Morty grows he gets used to Primes visits, looking forward to them. I imagine Prime would be more like a cool uncle to Morty than a grandfather, showing up at random times to give him things he found on different planets and telling him facts about places he's been to.

Morty would probably be a lot more confident if Prime had been the one around him instead of c137. Maybe a little too much. Prime would encourage Morty to stand up for himself, giving him shooting lessons and showing off different inventions he could use to get rid of people bothering him permanently.

I don't think Prime could care about somebody without there being some sort of possessiveness at the core of it. The only reason he gained interest in Morty in the first place is because Morty is his blood and he wanted to see what potential the kid might have. He doesn't want Morty to be some timid little thing doing whatever is asked of him like he sees other Ricks force their grandsons to be. No grandson of his is gonna be a meek, pathetic lapdog. That would be an insult to Prime's genius dna flowing through the kids blood.

Eventuallly after Morty asks enough times about going with Prime to a different planet, Prime gives in and starts taking him along for simple adventures (at least, simple at first). It would play out similar to the actual show, with Morty being absolutely dumbfounded and terrified at the sort of things he sees whilst Prime treats it like a regular tuesday. The most noticeable difference would probably be that Prime wouldn't belittle Morty as much as c137 (except if the kid tried to get in his way), and Morty would be more confident from the start and probably start to like the mayhem a little more. Mortys morals would eventually start to deteriorate like we see in canon, possibly even faster due to Prime's influence. He'd definitely start to grow more distant towards his other family members and people in general.

But still, I don't think Prime would take Morty with him all the time. He works better alone and having to cater to Mortys needs can be a nuisance when he's trying to work on something. I can picture him requesting Morty to help him in other ways instead, like fixing up his weapons and repairing some killbots.

I'm a fan of the idea that c137 pretty much let the earth in Primes dimension go to ruin on purpose. But if c137 never gets to meet Morty in the first place in this hypothetical au, that would never happen. Prime especially would have no reason to destroy Mortys home. He wants Morty to respect him, there's no point traumatising him like that if it will make Morty fear him and not want to be like him. Because then Morty would end up just as mediocre as other versions of himself.

You could have a lot of juicy drama with Morty finding out that Prime killed every single version of his grandmother throughout time and space. He'd probably start to question Prime a lot more and wonder if he's becoming like him for the worse. It'd be especially fun to throw c137 into the mix. He'd definitely be a lot worse off without Morty in his life. Hell, you could make him into an antagonist always searching for Prime, posing a threat to the duo.

I hope this makes at least a bit of sense. I'm sad we'll probably never see the two of them interact, but in a way imagining it yourself is the fun part. If the anon that sent the ask is reading this, I hope it didn't disappoint.

Luigi's Mansion 3: "A Friend in the Biz." (one shot)

     "So what happens now?" Luigi tilted his head in curiosity as Morty took the film from the camera.      "Why now comes the editing, my boy! The magic doesn't end when then camera stops rolling, no no, it keeps going!" Morty paused in his dramatics and darted up, looking the young man right in the face. "Care to watch?"    Luigi hesitated. He had the button and really should have continued on. But after everything he had to admit he felt exhausted.      "I-I guess a break would be okay." he muttered. A burble of agreement came from the tank on his back and Polterpup yipped his approval. Morty twirled with a flourish. "Then onward, to the editing room!"    Following the cheerful ghost, Luigi quietly took a seat once they entered the editing room. Morty hummed cheerfully as he darted around and hooked things up.      "You really are a natural." he praised. "What on earth are you doing in this disaster of a hotel?"    The question made Luigi rub his arm nervously. "We were tricked into coming here."    Morty paused, looking back at him. "'We'?" he turned away from the equipment and he then realized just how shaken and tired the human looked.      "Just what have you been through?" he said softly, pulling a chair around so he could sit while facing Luigi.      "K-King Boo and Gravely, they tricked me and my friends into coming here." Luigi couldn't stop himself, tears stung his eyes. "They kidnapped them." The tears began to fall. "Kid-Kidnapped my brother!"    A handkerchief appeared in the ghost's hand and he held it out. "You poor thing. I knew Hellen had strange plans when she took over, but kidnapping? Harming others? I had no idea."    Accepting the handkerchief, Luigi sniffled and blew his nose. "Th-Thanks." he muttered.      "Now, why would King Boo go after your brother?"    Luigi shuddered. "He's done it before. Twice. I got him back but this place, it's so big and there's strong ghosts here. I just…" he teared up again. "I'm scared we'll never get out of here."    Sitting back, Morty folded his arms with a frown. "I never agreed to this. When Hellen invited me here I was excited to make movies, to work with guests and discover new talent. She lied to me." he said bitterly. He then seemed to remember Luigi was right across from him. Getting up, he reached out his hand.

     "Get your things, my young star, you've got help on your side!" Pushing aside his fears, Luigi got up with a determined look on his face. "Okie-dokie!" The two left and went for the elevator. As Luigi entered the elevator, there was an echoing cackle and a dark blue light screen covered the elevator.      "Ah ah ah," Hellen Gravely's voice echoed around them. "That nasty pup aside, no helping!" she scolded.    Morty touched the screen and jerked back as it shocked him. Luigi hurried out of the elevator, passing through the screen with Polterpup right beside him.      "Are you okay?" he asked worriedly. Dusting himself off, Morty glared up at the security camera. "I'm fine, my young star, thank you. But it seems our hotel hostess has decided you don't get any help." He sighed. "I'm sorry, it looks like you're on your own."    Polterpup yipped and Gooigi burbled loudly, making Morty smile. "Aside from your friends, I mean." He bowed. "But allow me this; if you ever need a place to rest, you are welcome back here any time you need. Remember, you have a friend 'in the biz'."    Luigi's eyes shone with a mix of sadness and relief. "Thanks, Morty." He held up the elevator button and it flew into place. "Guess I better go."      "Be careful." Morty waved as the elevator doors closed. He then turned to the security camera.      "Hellen, I know you can hear me." he hissed. "If you harm one hair on that young man's head, I will tear apart this hotel and you will wish you had never set foot out of your grave!"    Hellen sat back in her chair as she stared at the screen. The massive form of King Boo floated beside her.      "Huh, looks like you made him mad." the ghostly king commented.      "Ugh, I should have known not to bring him in. He still has memories of his life, remembers his humanity. It's annoying."    Morty floated back to the editing room. Once there he closed the door and let out a heavy sigh as he floated over to a photo that was pinned to the wall. It showed a man with a young woman beside him.      "Sweet little sister." he mused. "Maybe I should have gone on with you to that light that day. But the urge to make my masterpiece has been too strong." he turned, gaze settling on where Luigi had been sitting. "And the urge to help him is just as strong." A wistful smile played at his lips. "I'll see you again someday, I hope you can forgive me for making you wait."

Nip this in the bud (2)

Okay, I think I finally figured out what Rick Prime was hoping to accomplish with this:

Because I was all "WTF" during that scene.

First things first:

It's clear that Rick Prime has been monitoring Rick C-137 during this whole time. Maybe not continually monitoring him, but monitoring him often enough that he knows:

Rick lived in the Prime Dimension

Rick is hanging out with Morty Prime

Rick has two Beths now (LOL) "echoes" of Prime's daughter since C-137 Beth never grew up

Likewise, he knew Rick C-137 was accompanied by Morty Prime, and could tell (without actually checking nor monitoring this, because then he wouldn't have fallen for Evil Morty's trick) that one of the Mortys Rick C-137 showed up with was Morty Prime, his original grandson.

In a similar vein, it's theoretically possible that he has some inkling of Evil Morty's identity. I mean, otherwise why tell him "you're like an evil Morty, a clever one". Um, excuse me? Evil Morty didn't do a single "evil" thing during the Prime fight. Why the heck call him "evil"? Just because he's wearing an eyepatch? WEAK. Call him clever, sure. But evil? Nope.

UNLESS... Rick Prime has also sporadically been monitoring the happenings in the Citadel of Ricks. News of Evil Rick's killing spree might have reached him, he might have read witness accounts and known that Evil Rick was accompanied by an eye-patched Morty who disappeared (although I seriously doubt anyone would bother to write more than a single sentence on Evil Morty in any report). Or he may have noticed (you know, after he was teleported in the Prime dimension right after Evil Morty contaminated EVERYONE'S portal travel) that the Citadel blew up, that there was a breach in the Central Finite Curve, and he might have investigated the ruins out of curiosity. He might have found out Stuff.

(Edit: nah, the name "Evil Morty" was mentioned a couple of times in the box, so Rick Prime using it only means that he was paying attention to what was happening in the Box)

In any case, even if all that isn't true, even if Rick Prime had originally no clue that there ever was any animosity between Rick C-137 and Evil Morty, and him calling Evil Morty "Evil" was just a lucky guess, Prick Prime was definitely able to tell that was no love between Evil Morty and Rick C-137 during this scene:

...in which he uses Evil Morty as a literal human shield and Rick C-137 shoots without hesitation (on a different note, I'd like to say how sad is that when strangled Evil Morty doesn't have the presence of mind to try and use any of his implants; he's just a 14 year old boy against an grown-up man at that moment. Forget shooting him with plasma guns; you can literally just strangle him).

And so we come to this scene:

Okay, Rick Prime could already tell that Evil Morty and Rick C-137 weren't family, but the suggestion of "nip this in the bud" was still absurd!

(I've written a similar post in the past while venting, but this one is actually getting somewhere, so please bear with me)

Because Evil Morty and Rick C-137 were, at worst, temporary allies. Rick C-137 owned to Evil Morty:

his freaking life (Evil Morty revived him)

his revenge (Evil Morty let him kill Rick Prime)

and (depending on to what degree Rick Prime was monitoring his clones and the killing box) he might have also known that Evil Morty helped Rick C-137 track Rick Prime down and helped him to escape the box.

That's a huge debt. And I know that Evil Morty helped Rick C-137 to save his own skin from getting Omega-ed if/when Rick C-137 failed to win, and to get the weapon plans, but he wasn't at all obligated to save Rick C-137's life nor to hand him his nemesis on a plate.

Arguably, Evil Morty did this precisely so that he'd have an Omega-enslaved and morally indebted Rick to come to his aid in a hypothetical future hour of need. However, the truth is that Evil Morty and Rick C-137 worked well with each other since the beginning of the episode, before any Omega Device threat (nor carrot!) dangled in front of Evil Morty to influence his decisions (he had just wanted to... talk) and Rick had trusted him enough to leave Morty Prime alone with him.

Like, under normal circumstances, Evil Morty honoring their alliance during the Prime Fight could have been the beginning of a friendship (or at least a more honest and permanent alliance) between Rick C-137 and Evil Morty. Evil Morty is insecure and traumatized enough to need the failsafe of the Omega Device backing him up, but Rick C-137 was game...!

Rick Prime instead puts in Rick C-137's head the idea that Evil Morty might kill him in a tantrum. Not because their interests might clash in the future. Not because Evil Morty may get power-hungry when he grows up. But because he's young and emotional. (Mind you, this is about a boy whose whole characterization revolves around being extremely cautious and calculating; not someone who'd kill another person in a fit of fury.)

Of course, the first idea that pops up in our minds (at least... it was in mine) is that Rick Prime said this hoping that Rick C-137 will drop everything to go stop Evil Morty, and so Rick Prime would get a chance to escape.

...But that doesn't make any sense, either!

Rick C-137 isn't so stupid as to give Rick Prime that chance of survival. Even if he took Rick Prime's warning seriously, he'd hurriedly shoot him in the face before running out to deal with Evil Morty. Rick Prime was toast, and he knew that. This wasn't about his own survival.

Rick C-137 wasn't about to take his worst enemy's advice to turn against his temporary ally. Like, what the heck? Since when Rick Prime fancied himself trustworthy? He could have easily lied, made this up. Rick C-137 couldn't have actually known if Evil Morty really had the weapon plans at that moment, and he'd have to take Rick Prime's word for it. No way he'd drop everything at his worst enemy's word.

Rick Prime saw that Evil Morty downloaded the weapon plans straight on his person. There was no external device that you can just snatch away (like the cone thing Evil Morty used when scanning Rick C-137's brain). So Rick Prime knew that the only way to "nip this in the bud" would be for Rick C-137 to run outside, confront Evil Morty, find out that there was no external device to forcefully take from him, and promptly attack him with lethal intent. But, come on, Rick C-137 was not going to do that, because of the aforementioned debt. Even Rick C-137 isn't so ruthless as to have his own life saved one minute, and him returning the favor with a murder attempt. This was never going to work.

Even if Rick C-137 took Rick Prime's warning seriously, even he trusted his advice, even if he was willing to murder a version of his grandson (to whom his owned his life) in cold blood, I doubt he could do it. He was a mess physically, while Evil Morty was perfectly fine. If they did clash at that moment, I think Evil Morty could have escaped easily with a portal. So this was never going to work.

And don't even get me started on what a joke it is for the Rick who wanted to murder Rick C-137's whole family, one by one, to express Rick-to-Rick camaraderie. As if...!

So what was all this for? This would never work, Rick C-137 would not try to kill Evil Morty at that moment...

...but he can do it in the future.

Any seeds of trust or appreciation that were planted that day were promptly poisoned by Rick Prime's "well-meaning" warning.

Evil Morty himself did trample said seeds further by warning Rick C-137 he could kill him any time he wanted as of now, but he also said that "using a weapon like this doesn't get you. Left. Alone." His whole speech would have hit very differently without Rick Prime's warning. We would have trusted him, we would have trusted that he did all this with the single goal of being left alone and that this is going to be the end of it. Worse case scenario, we would have thought Evil Morty might demand Rick C-137's support for A Thing (like a slave) if he had no other choice, but we still wouldn't have thought Evil Morty would murder him in a flight of rage during a disagreement. Now, the idea that Evil Morty might become unhinged in the future has been planted in our heads, by Rick Prime!

We fans were discussing on how the narrative seems to be setting Evil Morty as the final villain, but it's not the narrative, not really! It's Rick Prime manipulating Rick C-137, hoping he'll attack Evil Morty sometime in the future, so they can kill each other.

He fueled Rick C-137' paranoia on purpose, so as to get delayed revenge on the Rick who dared to think himself better than him... and on the one person who actually bested him.

[moodymisty]

Konrad and Mortarion are both sad self loathing stinky boys. But one difference between them is their reactions to you confessing your love to him.

Because Morty would be mentally in denial about it, always having thoughts like “what if you didn’t really mean it?” or “what if you’re playing some cruel joke on him?” or “what if you just said it out of pity??”. While Konnie would hear your love confession and mentally go “Great! That means you’re never leaving me ever. How nice.” While physically he’s staring at you completely silently like that one tbh creature image

Both are terrible to confess to for totally different reasons. Morty is slightly better because it’s mostly him just being doubtful of himself and is redeeming qualities, Konrad is just batshit.

[fandomwe1rd0]

It's honestly sad that Morty is basically Rick's caretaker at times. Like Rickfending your Mort is the best example of this. In a single episode, we see that Morty is responsible for

Keeping Rick emotionally stable

Getting Rick out of a slump

Giving Rick food

Now this may seem small, unfair responsibilities to put on a kid. But still. It's only three things.

Butttt also in the season 6 finale, we see that Morty is responsible for making sure Rick showers, another unfair responsibility. Then in the same episode Rick dragged him into his fight for Rick Prime, another added responsibility. My poor boy is basically Rick's caretaker at times. He deserves so much better.
