X-216 Rick looks calmer in this commission that I ordered from kahlart (Twitter)--his anxiety is bad now, but it's far from what he experienced in his 30s after his family died--but still pensive like something's bothering him. He loves his current family more than anything, but he never really moved on from the past. Admittedly, Ricks aren't famous for having healthy coping mechanisms.

I love how X-216's glasses shield his eyes, making him a little secretive as he gazes off into space. His hair trailing down his back like he just wants it out of the way fits the solemn mood. Smoke disappears in the air behind him, and sometimes he wishes his memories would disappear, too.

She has been smothering me with hospitality. I have to return the favour.

Sssshhhh, don't mind me, I'm just getting it out of my system 😌

We’re nothing to her but she’s still going to do everything to free us.

Feeling unnecessarily competitive today.

It’s interesting to think that Eris Morn and Sylvanas Windrunner are practically the same character, but utterly different because one is written by people who see her as a person, and the other written by people who think a woman’s moral compass does a complete 180 the nanosecond she’s traumatized.

(And no, you can’t argue with me on this. There’s no way Sylvanas would suddenly stop caring about the people she willingly sacrificed herself to protect and mourned being turned against, the moment she gets her free will back. And yet, that’s what happened. All the way back in Warcraft 3, the game that is somehow the most progressive of Blizzard’s media.
