OH, LUX OFF!
Hebby back again with another Rick. This one is from the universe where everyone has lamp faces, as seen above. (No, the lamps in their universe don't have normal faces, it's only the living organisms that are different, no switcharoo here!)
I like playing with metaphors and ways of thinking about trauma, so in this universe everyone has these lamp faces BUT they're not always on. They don't need to be on, unless you're looking for something. Rick has his on all the time, AND it's usually on the highbeam setting. Why? Because he doesn't trust anyone, he wants to shed light on everything, and in doing so, ends up hurting everyone around him (with temporary blindness).
Over the course of the seasons, he eventually starts lowering the brightness until he's eventually no longer even turning the light on as much, unless he's hyper stressed or splitting.
(this character has bpd, ptsd, is autistic and adhd, and can be a jackass though he's gotten better. expect light puns but also expect grumpy old man)
CURRENT VERSION OF THIS CHARACTER IS IN HIS MID 30s, AND WORKS AS A PRIVATE EYE ON THE CITADEL, ALONGSIDE HIS ASSISTANT, MORTHY!
