#or also rick suddenly realising years down the line he’s got it bad for bp but it’s too late to do anything about it

I know we all love to imagine Rick being a huge lovestruck simp for BP in the Flesh Curtains era but alternatively: completely clueless Rick who is still a huge lovestruck simp but doesn’t even realise what he’s feeling is a crush
Like he’s an emotionally constipated pansexual man raised in an extremely homophobic era falling in love for (probably) the first time since his wife was murdered, I bet he was repressing the hell out of those feelings for a long time
#rick and morty#rnm#rick sanchez#birdperson#birdrick#young rick#flesh curtains rick#the flesh curtains#flesh curtains#this could be played for both humour and angst#’what no i just think it’s cool how he has huge wings and muscles’#‘he’s just a cool guy that’s all’#‘it’s totally normal for bros to admire their bros’ bodies in a completely platonic way’#or also rick suddenly realising years down the line he’s got it bad for bp but it’s too late to do anything about it#or also (even though i don’t think his denial went on for this long but) morty confronting rick and mentioning his ‘crush’ on birdperson#and rick immediately gets defensive and is like ‘wtf i don’t have a crush shut the fuck up’#and storms off in a sulk#and then a few hours and several drinks later is like ‘oh fuck i do have a crush’#it would be the perfect blend of funny and sad to have rick never realise that’s what the feeling was until it’s pointed out#especially if he never really understood why he took the blood ridge thing so hard and then he does#i have a lot of birdrick thoughts and almost all of them need angst#that’s like the cornerstone of the ship
