Remembering meant that Rick saw through her indifference and disgust and horror and saw the worst emotion of them all lording over every other instinct, its filthy hands on the reins of her heart, flanked by all of her repugnant sincerity.

It was repellent in a quieter, more personal way. She wasn’t as desensitized to this as she was to every other horrible thing Rick’s done. Not yet. But there would come a time, she understood, where her morals would eventually warp enough that she wouldn’t bat an eyelid at any of this.
She wasn’t sure if she should look forward to the numbing relief of it or await its arrival like the slow, dawning death it was.

Rick’s music touched the curly haired boy on a level that he couldn’t properly express, one that he never failed to praise the older man for but, on one not so ordinary November evening, as they’re flying back from an adventure, listening to Morty’s absolute favorite song from Rick’s glory days, The Continuum , Rick says something that makes Morty’s heart drop like a stone.

Morty’s fingers tighten around the steering wheel and he doesn’t have the courage to tell Rick that they’re listening to him, to his music. Instead the brunet tells him that he doesn’t know, that it’s just some band he found on Youtube while he was bored.
Rick’s expression never wavers.»
