I Can Turn You Into Poetry But I Cannot Make You Love Me.

on shame and yearning (pt.2)

Have you seen last chapter?? I love their dynamic so I drew this. Hawks and Nagant are hanging out together a lot after Nagant feels like she is already spent enough amount of taxpayer money in jail and finally get out 🤣🤣🤣

They are watching disturbing movie together in Hawks home theater… (read from right to left)

the thing i think a lot of people don’t realize about rick and morty is that the question isn’t “does rick care about morty?” - it’s very obvious he does - it’s “does rick care enough about morty to change?”

I absolutely love Ricks character development. It's the type that keeps you on the edge of the seat, wondering if he'll do the right thing or not. When he does, it's super satisfying, but when he slips into his old habits, you want to yell out in frustration. Throughout the seasons, you notice subtle differences. His yearning to better, but he thinks he doesn't deserve it. It's easier to be the piece of shit everyone knows you as.

I think with the newest episode, we can see he is really trying. Rick went to therapy on his own because he was finally able to admit he needed help. I think that was a huge step. Rick has struggled with admitting the fact that he needs help, so much so that he would rather suffer than show that weakness.

I also want to point out how much I love Dr. Wong. She is one of the few people Rick actually respects. When he first met her, he tested the waters on what she'd allow him to get away with. He shat on her profession and tried to dig at anything that would potentially hurt her to make himself seem bigger. His efforts were useless. She didn't lose her stoicism and calmly explained the situation. She is one of the few people Rick can't provoke, nor make them feel inferior to him.

Dr. wong isn't afraid of Rick. She doesn't bat her eye with whatever insane cosmic bullshit Rick brings to her. He was a pickle for Christ's sake, and this woman wasn't fazed what so ever. I feel like Rick likes the fact that she isn't scared of him.

She'll set clear boundaries with Rick and correct him whenever he crosses them. The craziest thing is that he responds well to it. He, in facts listens to what she has to say. Even though he is the 'smartest being in the universe', I think he feels safer to be vulnerable in front of someone who doesn't depend on him, nor have any sort of expectation. She is well aware that Rick is a nillistic asshole, but she also knows there's good underneath it all. Rick has all sorts of trauma that he refused to process, hence the drinking and substance abuse. Dr. Wong could be really good for Rick. She's someone Rick could confide in with no judgment or ridicule.

Additionally, readers began to ask me if the poems were “true,” by which they meant, “Did they really happen?” which seemed both beside the point and also intrusive. I realized that if they thought poems were biographically accurate, then they could walk away, knowing I was just a sad little man.
