[video] irrational attachments, morty
[Rick appears to be...in the library, of all places. Just chilling at one of the desks, and when he switches on the feed, he holds up a folded piece of paper.]
So she left me a letter. She probably left a lot of people letters, whatever.
[He figures there's no point in specifying who he's talking about. It should be obvious.]
I don't believe in sentiment, or shit like honoring the wishes of the dead--a-and let's face it, in this place, going home might as well be the same thing as dying. Because real fucking death sure doesn't mean jack shit around here. I don't care about W-Wonderland, and I barely even know most of you, a-and I don't plan on ever knowing most of you.
And libraries?
[He gestures to encompass the whole room.]
I don't care about them. They're archaic, l-like she was. One of those things that k-keep existing for some fucking reason, no matter how advanced a society gets.
[Like how she kept existing here. "Nevertheless, she persisted" etc etc. But nothing in the entire multiverse lasts for ever.]
But.
[But.]
She cared about this place. She was smart and practical. A-And with information distribution and c-consolidation being as fucked up as it is in Wonderland, some archaic bullshit like this is actually important. And, fuck, it's one of those...stability things. Civilization things. It's a basic fucking law of the u-universe that you can't have chaos without order.
And fuck me but does this place get fucking boring. I n-need a fucking hobby.
She wanted me to protect the library, so I will. Someone who actually gives a shit should t-take over as the next librarian, but in the meantime I'm gonna make some basic fucking upgrades. Digitize everything, a-add some computers, build robots to re-shelve books or whatever, since I'm sure as fuck not learning the Dewey fucking decimal system myself. Install some self-defense mechanisms so no one can fucking Alexandria this shit. And anyone who fucks with the library, she's given me f-free pass to murder you.
Any complaints can be directed straight to my ass.

[Not if they're casually banishing people to the moon with fuckin magic.]
Maybe I could just erase everyone's worst memories. Just get rid of the f-fuel.
Video
[Because obviously that's what "Star Wars" means. OBVIOUSLY. ]
Er- I think that would probably have pretty terrible consequences.
Video
It usually does, but I could have failsafes in place. It worked pretty well b-back home.
Video
[That's what happens when the world in question is chock full of magic- magic becomes the solution to everything including 'magic'.]
You know Wonderland would probably find some way to make it backfire.
Video
[All these Luddites who have never even heard of Star Wars, let alone the Two Brothers series.]
Yeah, fair f-fucking point.
Video
[Sorry, Rick, the pastel pony land doesn't know what its missing. ]
The one thing we can always count on, I guess. Yay.
Video
[He raises his flask.]
Yay.
[And he drinks. Do they have alcohol in pastel pony land? Hmmm.]
Video
Well. I'll leave you to it?
Video
[You're not bad for a pastel pony.]
Video
[PROBABLY?!! ]
