hi

[ricksybusiness]

Hi everyone, it's Theresa! You may also know me as the player of Hellboy (hellshaped). Don't worry, he's still here, I just apped a second character because, I don't know, I have poor impulse control.

This is Rick Sanchez from Rick & Morty, whom you may also know from such hits as killing award-winning cartoon characters on their own show or weird burger commercial.

Basically Rick is an 80-year-old mad scientist/inventor/genius who has traveled roughly everywhere in the galaxy, including alternate dimensions/timelines, and has a largely obfuscated background as a freedom fighter/space terrorist. Also he is an alcoholic. And a grandfather. And in constant psychological pain.

Short version: amoral octogenarian asshole who is surprised by nothing because he's seen everything.

NOTE: Some of Rick's tendencies can be potentially triggering, so please look over this content warning/opt-out post and let me know if anything doesn't work for you.

I'm over at bloodmoney if you want to chat; just drop me a line here (or on plurk, w/e) that you're adding me and we're golden!

hello theresa! c: i'm lena, a newbie to the game... i have yet to see rick and morty but i've heard good things about it! it's also really great to see older characters, and rick himself sounds like a wild ride so i can't wait to see him around!

[ricksybusiness]

hi lena!! i'm totally canonblind to FE so we are on equal footing there haha. it's nice to meet you c:

[winces]

that's the beauty of jamjar tbh! c:

[strictdiscipline]

brb building a museum to host the work of art that is your gif

[adoube]

AND HI, RIGHT BACK.

[ricksybusiness]

basically you will never be disappointed by googling for rick & morty gifs

[defenceless]

Oh my gosh, I have been watching Rick & Morty way too much and just keep loving it more with every episode I see. I'd love some CR with Rick!!

Hi, Theresa! I'm Ginko, and I just have this teenage animu mage here who will probably be good at screaming at him for being inappropriate, at least. It's like Summer if she was shorter and a lot more shouty. i also play a terrible character with an opt-out myself, so you don't have to worry about anything there! c:

[ricksybusiness]

For real, it's my favorite show on TV right now. :') Every time someone mentions they actually know what it is, my tiny black heart swells.

RICK IS TERRIBLE WITH TEENAGERS especially teenage girls BY WHICH I MEAN yes let's get so much CR, I'm so down for thissss

[defenceless]

I'm a huge Vinesauce fan, so I don't think I could have ever gotten out of watching it eventually. C:

I'm really looking forward to it! May I go ahead and add you on plurk for rp?

oh also the animu teenager's name is rin, somehow i forgot that

[ricksybusiness]

JESUS the game is so good... I need to go play it again, thanks for reminding me jfc

And yes for sure, add away!

[defenceless]

YOU'RE WELCOME and thank you!

[riastraid]

OKAY I AM SLIGHTLY CANON FAMILIAR NOW but rick's great, i'm looking forward to him ripping this setting apart

also hi stranger

[ricksybusiness]

ripping the setting apart when he isn't being too lazy u mean. i'm trying to figure out how to avoid him just godmoding the entire prison break and the solution is he won't care i hate rick so much

meanwhile i should probably familiarize myself with your anime, tell me what to do first

[riastraid]

no it's convenient, a built in character trait to keep you from breaking the game forever!!! bring back the sun with science, who needs all this magic nonsense

i don't know that you'll like the 'arc' of the anime this guy's from, but fate/zero is on netflix (though idk how the dub is) and it's good imo!! there is a lot of sitting around to have esoteric conversation but you're used to that from gits probably

[ricksybusiness]

basically!! magic is dumb, science 4lyfe

i just googled the fate anime and i got so confused, why is everything called the same thing.............. but yeah i am a veteran of sitting around talking animes, gonna do it asap

[riastraid]

fate/nonsensical subtitle..... fate/stay night is the original (that's what i'm playing from), fate/zero is the prequel but you can watch it first and be fine, it's self-contained. f/sn is trashier and more Undiluted Anime in general so i recommend f/z tbh

now i just want to go home and watch tv bleH i think i've got like 7 eps of R&M left it's so short

[ricksybusiness]

nu quickly explaining things to me that pages and pages of wikipedia couldn't, bless u

meanwhile the r&m s2 finale will probably break you, have fun

[riastraid]

explaining how to get into series with long convoluted timelines, how familiar

update i did not make it that far but expect me to cry on your shoulder

[ricksybusiness]

gazes at bprd reading order, ah........

but yes ok i'm waiting

[keystaff]

Oh man, Rick. Hi Theresa! Welcome to Futuro.

I'm Caprica and I just have this here magical girl, Sakura Kinomoto from Cardcaptor Sakura myself at the moment here. I've seen all of like two eps of Rick and Morty but it is kind of actually over the top everything I wanted and imagined with Doc and Marty's BTTF hijinks so. Yes. I am here for this and will love seeing him around!

[ricksybusiness]

Hiii what's up! I'm actually not new to the game, but hello all the same c:

From what I know of CCS, Rick should probably stay far... far away from Sakura, lmao, but I'm sure they'll cross paths eventually anyway. Small game and all that!

[keystaff]

Oh right, I just hadn't yet tagged your other.

But lol yeeeeah. She's precious. I'm still going to enjoy seeing him around if not actually prob eventually inevitably tagging him because Rick.

[counterattacked]

I'm offended by his unibrow plz add this to your opt out

hi theresa, I REALLY...NEED TO WATCH THIS SHOW I'm so behind

[ricksybusiness]

photoshops a set of unibrowless icons just for u


never mind that's terrible

but yes u should watch it!!!! do it

[bougy]

Hello, Theresa! My name is Lofn, and it's a pleasure! I really enjoyed our thread on the testdrive! I was totally canonblind so I was expecting something like The Professor from Futurama but lmao he's like 1000x better. Also I had no idea what a backronym was so I even learnt something.

[ricksybusiness]

Yes hello Lofn! Me too! I've gotten waylaid by work at the worst possible time, but I do plan on wrapping that tdm thread up if you'd like. c:

BUT YEAH LMAO Rick & Morty obvs owes a lot to Futurama; I like to describe the whole show as Futurama After-Hours... where everything is 1000x ruder and more cynical. So you weren't far off at least!!

[bougy]

Not a problem! I totally understand as my schedule has been uneven as of late. Luckily my work is done for the year but it has some crazy hours lmao. And please, let's do! Even if it ends horrendously Hawke will still bother him because she'll feel rather poorly for making such a bad impression on someone she's supposed to work with. She does have some active rivalries though, so she's used to working (not always nicely) with people she has Fundamental Differences with.

Oh, then yes, that does make sense! Futurama is fundamentally a positive show for as heart-wrenching as it can be but it is a very good thing to be inspired by.

[ricksybusiness]

HAHA if Rick can get 100% rivalry with Hawke, I would be so pleased. Unlock some immunity to alcohol poisoning or something, A+ great

[bougy]

well in that case what are the things he absolutely hates most? she'll do her best to make sure he's always dragged into them 8')

[ricksybusiness]

HAHA jesus rick is pretty much a grumpy douche about everything... anything whimsical will piss him off, plus anything religious or repetitive (two people having the same argument over and over, for example). indecisiveness in general is frustrating to him too, so really......... anything that is a waste of his time LMAO

[ricksybusiness]

OH SHIT also governments. obviously, from their conversation lol.

[bougy]

AH lmao well, tell me, does he have a moment to spare for mages' rights.....

[ricksybusiness]

u tryin his patience, hawke

[hsalf]

i have already tagged you, but i wanna say hi! im marion and i also play a douchebag scientist who has seen too much to be surprised, though i can't say which one of them is worse for sure...

hope you don't mind the add im going to send. can't wait to thread!

[ricksybusiness]

yooooo marion! nice to meet you. i am always totally down for rick to meet other scientists, so this should be fun as heck c:

but yeah go ahead and add me! let's get goinnnggg

[satsujinki]

i have greatly anticipated this

with my whole body

[ricksybusiness]

oh my god.... so much pressure

[satsujinki]

you only get one chance

any slip-up and we port in an alternate rick

[ricksybusiness]

i hope it's the cowboy rick, i like his style
