getting sooooo emotional abt how like. when rick and bp meet again during the federation stuff its like theyre completely different ppl from who they were when they last saw each other. but it almost makes them become closer instead of driving them apart… until of course their values clash in the worst possible way

#i cant word this properly my brain is mush and im trying to fight thru 1billion hc world #BUT LIKE. U UNDERSTANDDD. RIGHT #this happens every time they spend a while away from each other #one or the other or both chnage. but it still stays the same #ill have to draw or write abt it at some point. but i have exams in like a week 😢 #gyadddd damn tho… thw flesh curtains/federation time gap esp drives me insane #bc likeeee. rick is already kinda fucked up when they meet. but way better at playing it off #and it never comes up. like hes not in tht deep yet #but later on he Cant hide it anymore. so much so that bp Has to become involved in ricks issues #and while rick still has that smallllll part of himself that still cares. hes much less trusting and shit by that point #which makes it so much more meaningful to me to have bp become involved at this point #and on the othwr hand u have bp going from sweet and kinda naive #to much more … serious ig. and mature. due to his home being destroyed or w/e #but hes contrasts rick in being far more compassionate and liek. genuinely heroic #from his pov maybe theyve both grown up a bit. but from ricks pov its just bp thats changed #i see rick as being far less aware of his own slow downfall. while its more obviosu to others (esp bp) #gggyaahhhh….. they make me so so ill #birdrick
