Drew some ricks :) i want to slowly work my way through a whole set of alternate ricks because they’re fun to draw. i wanna draw a few pocket morty ricks too, not just show ricks
oh and here’s some bonus mortys, i am not drawing all the alternate mortys because there are so goddamn many of them
i think that his eyepatch had actually started to impede his natural vision, and he has a lazy eye or smth now. this is fixed ofc by use of the eyepatch which is why he doesn't rlly take it off unless he has to. i also like to think he has rlly poor depth perception.
headcanon B: unrealistic but hilarious
i think he has a crush on morty prime. i think he was offering morty a spot on his ship to get out of the central finite curve but when morty refused, EM was like "yeah well well GOOD didn't want you coming anyway and that's a toilet yeah i'm evil." like he let morty prime join him so quickly in unmortricken. literally came back bc he didn't know if he was coming and wanted to check. or he chose an eyepatch specifically bc of rick's pirate fear. take your pick.
headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful
his rick was not his first rick and EM was not that rick's first morty. they've both been through the system on the citadel plenty of times. which means that EM has lost rick after rick and probably family after family. i think he genuinely had a healthy home life growing up which was why when it was taken away from him, he tried so hard to get back any semblance of it by running away and being in a world void of who he considers to be the issue - rick. a world without rick to him is ideal. and think about how numb he's become because of all the universe shifting - he's probably seen countless versions of his sister, his mother, his father, even his school. and i think he was never able to accept the replacements for his original reality that he was pulled away from. i think that his original rick was incredibly abusive as well. maybe EM even snapped and killed him too, not knowing that he'd end up being recycled into the system that abuses mortys. so yeah. within the central finite curve, he truly felt like he had no escape, but i think now he's away from it all, he has no interest in going back to his original reality or restoring the life he once had. if it still exists. i don't even think he's happy now but for him, the life outside the curve without rick is infinitely better than the alternative.
headcanon D: unrealistic
the sunset is a motif in evil mortys story and though i haven't worked out exactly what it means yet i think it could be a symbol of his determination. not sure if this even classifies as unrealistic but i can't think of anything else to say. even though i do think EM envies morty prime bc of his ability to stand up to his rick. because he's allowed the freedoms EM never was given.

“I chose regenerative medicine as my focus when you died- cause I was broken. And I wanted to repair the irreparable. It's an ethics nightmare. I have been spit on by protesters and shut down by the government. I've worked on tiny rat hearts my whole life, waiting until someone in power would believe that I could do this with people, too. And over and over, old men on boards have told me to stay in my lane. To calm down. To wait. But I can do this. Noah's heart is shriveled and weak. Just like he was. But I'm gonna fix it. Max gave me back the only thing I've ever lost that mattered to me… now it's my turn.”
