#c137 duo

Is anyone even following this account still idk

Was rewatching the older seasons and what can I say, I miss the toxicity a little bit lmao

does anyone think about the fact that rick never actually said "no" when morty asked him if he was bait for rick prime?

i doubt hes bait now but instead of just saying "no morty. youre not." he evades a clear response and instead specifically says "for you to be bait, it would mean he cares about something. he truly does not give a shit"

this is...interesting. theres sort of an implication there that rick KNOWS for sure rick prime doesnt care about anyone or anything. including his original family

i feel like, originally prime smith family WAS bait. or maybe as close to bait as they could be. rick has done some really terrible things with no remorse and when he finally joined the prime smiths, he was at his lowest point. i think rick reached a point where he was fully willing to kill this family to get back at prime

but prime didnt care. prime would never care. "he's the real deal."

so rick just...stayed there. and yea, morty is not bait NOW, so he technically didn't lie to the kid

Rick: I dont give a shit about morty or what he thinks of me I'm a fucking god-

Morty: the vindicators are my heros

alright i know literally my last post was complaining a bit about evil morty being included in the latest episode BUT i want to clarify (not that anyone has tried to say i implied otherwise but still i want to clarify) just because i don't like HOW evil morty was included in the episode, i still think they handled him and his story perfectly as like. a separate entity

like putting aside how it felt like he was shoved in the ep just to Have Him There, the reveal of his backstory? exactly what i've always hoped it would be

there's no big secret. no "oooo his original rick is this super important guy!!!" or "ohhh he's actually OUR morty from the FUTURE" or anything else like that.

he's just a morty that got sick of rick, like evil morty himself said.

and i think my favorite part of his backstory is the fact that there wasn't some big event that caused him to snap. rick didn't kill his family or leave him for dead or anything. he just...yelled at him. snapped at morty like how c137 rick used to (and still does but he's been working on his behavior) snap at his morty. told him to grow a pair and actually commit to quiting instead of bitching about it

all the same things we've heard c137 say to our morty

and that was it. morty was done.

and i think that makes him so much more of a fascinating antagonist because it really makes you wonder what will be OUR mortys final straw? even with ricks improving behavior he still has his setbacks and regressions and maybe one day morty is just going to decide he's sick of our rick too
