Something tells me these are a rickorty nod but maybe I'm crazy
tried to look this scene up as gif everywhere but i couldn't find it... so here you have, just for you eue xoxo
they could have given this woman shirt of any other color but NO LET’S MAKE HER REPRESENT MORTY AND MAKE RICK CRACK HER
- M-Morty, can you understand me?…
- Y-Yeah, Rick… Of course, go on…
RnM!!🌀🛸
you're gonna have to pry them from my cold dead hands
Rick getting into a genuinely healthy relationship with someone, and Morty's conflicted about it. He's seen Rick have other love interests, but this one has gotten so close that they're almost integrated into the Smith family. He sees them all the time, doing things that usually only Rick and him would, and even more. He can't help but feel uncomfortable, and he doesn't know why.
He tries getting over it by simply asking Rick if he would try to hang out more like old times, and they do, but the hangouts have gotten shorter, and their relationship more shallow. Even though Rick is visibly happier and friendlier to him, Morty's still not happy, even though that should be what he'd always wanted.
The lack of attention gets unbearable. Morty secretly tries to ruin the relationship, taking advantage of the fact that Rick still trusts him, feeding them both small lies one step at a time, and when it works, he feels both guilty and satisfied when he's the one who Rick looks to for comfort about his breakup.
Morty thinks he got away with it, until one day, Rick comes up to him, drunk and wobbling, telling him that he knows all about what he did.
Morty doesn't even want to look at them that's how pissed and jealous he is
he prolly says things like rizz and sigma
in case you didnt notice
Morty and RickBot in 6.09
it's so insane how rick loves morty in his own way but it's so subtle and so so so so much based implicit meanings rather than outright gestures. but it becomes so clear when you view his "expressions" of love in their simplest form.
creating rickbot? rick didn't want morty to be lonely or to worry about him, even when rick himself was upset at morty for "treating" him like he's "boring" during the knights of the sun episode
the fear hole episode at the end? he carries a picture of morty in his wallet. he LIKES being able to see an image of morty whenever he wants. it might even bring him comfort. him putting it on the board was to also show how proud he was of morty, at the end, to the extent that he would willing part with something he obviously LIKES. (tho tbh he prob just grabbed another picture at home and put it in his wallet. it was clearly a school photo and they prob do have multiple of those)
like, this is something that is really coming across more overtly in the later seasons. in the earlier seasons, we saw rick go through cycles of controlling morty and then discarding him when they either got too emotionally close, when morty expressed anger/displeasure with rick, and/or when rick felt like he needed to "punish" morty for either of the two previous things (think the vat of acid or the two crows).
rick's toxic treatment and abuse of morty can be considered him "caring" about morty in his own fucked up way, even though it's not true love and care as it disregards morty's autonomy and feelings. however, for someone like rick to willingly exert control over another person instead of just abandoning them the moment they express something he doesn't like? that's basically him admitting he wants morty in his life.
rick becoming much more soft and caring in his own way in these recent seasons is a very subtle thing - but, it's like, once you see it, then a lot of things start clicking into place in regards to his character development and his relationship with morty.
THIS is the Rickorty I live for
