"Y-Yeah, exactly." He blasts another zombie as an afterthought. "Nothing wrong with getting what you want r-RRRRHHHRHRR-ight away. Like killing zombies with laser guns that's, haha, that's pretty instant, am I right?"

He gestures off down the hall toward one of the sneaky zombies that thinks it's being super stealthy hiding behind a door.

"check out this creepy fucker. y-you wanna do the honors?"

"It doesn't get much more instant than that."

Haha, and oh, wow, he... almost feels bad for this zombie. It thinks it has its shit all covered. It thinks it's totally in the clear to come sneaking up behind them and have a free meal. Just minding its own business, looking to viciously murder a few people. What an idiot. Morty shoots Rick a thumbs-up and engages in hot pursuit.

Sometimes in life, "hot pursuit" just means quietly walking towards a zombie like twenty feet away, but the satisfaction of pistol-whipping it and quadruple-tapping with a laser gun makes up for the lack of a chase scene.

Rick grins and gives him a thumbs-up in reply. Good job, Morty, not making noise and sneaking up on the sneaky fucker, nice thinking.

And Rick just kind of starts cackling when Morty wastes the thing, though okay, maybe the fourth tap was a bit much. The zombie was already goo by the second shot, but uh. Anyway.

"Fucking nice, nicely done, you really, you showed that creepy fuck who's boss."

He didn't start this zombie war, but he'll fucking finish it one way or another. Sometimes through excessively shooting inanimate goo.

"Oh, uh, thanks. Just tryin' to keep those zombies down a-and morale up, you know? We could get right through this whole event together."

He chuckles and props the gun on his shoulder. There's a couple more zombies further down the hall, but they're slow and dumb and he's not gonna worry about it for now. Morty's proving to have pretty good aim, so.

"Yeah, like I said, it's a regular, regular Disney movie up in here. We're gonna see this dumbshit event through to the end, Morty, you and me."

A hundred years Rick and Morty fighting zombies dot com. Just being Rick and Morty, struggling against the undead hordes.

"Boy, Rick, I don't know about Disney. I- I mean, I think they lean pretty hard on a family-friendly reputation and mowing down zombies kinda goes against that. I don't wanna-- I don't think we're HBO or anything, but this all seems pretty adult-oriented, if you ask me."

Shit, that reminds Rick, he needs to actually secure that domain name before some other dumbfuck does. Or another Rick.

"Nah, we're more the, the Netflix exclusive type deal or Adult Swim or Showtime, something less classy. Or, fuck, dear God, you don't think we're on the CW do you? Jesus Christ, Morty, I can't be on the CW, Morty, for, for personal and a-a-a-also for legal reasons. Anyway, shut up, Morty, don't be so, so damn literal. You...Literal Larry or...what the fuck ever. Man. I hope we're not on the C--"

The world may never know what Rick's issues with the CW are, because right then a zombie pops out of an adjacent room and lunges at them. Rick shoves Morty's head down so he can shoot the zombie pretty much point blank right in the face. Though fortunately Rick ends up with most of the splatter.

Weeeeellllp that was a pretty close one actually, and those ones at the end of the hall are shambling a bit faster now, so Rick wastes them too.

"Okay, might wanna, we should probably start kicking down doors."

Domain names are always half the battle. Morty gets a little preoccupied with trying to remember exactly what sorts of shows the CW does versus whatever all the other networks are bringing in. Like, he's sure he's got the gist of all that, it's just keeping it in order that's a bitch to manage. He thinks he kinda likes the CW, though.

Downside to preoccupation: not prepared for zombie attack. Rick covered his ass this time, but it's all around pretty much not the right moment to think about TV networks. Get your head in the game, Morty. These assholes sure aren't gonna do it for you. They're downright asking to get vaporized.

"Whoa, thanks. Y-you're probably right about that one. Like we can't really, we can't say we cleared a hallway out unless we hit the rooms, too." Morty does whatever the appropriately cool thing to do with laser guns vis-à-vis cocking or reloading them. There is no better time. "I can go low if you go high?"

Rick is already checking the next room before Morty finishes speaking. He's kinda sorta slightly a bit more on the ball now. If anyone's gonna die in this stupid event, it's gonna be Rick, not Morty.

His Replacement Morty voucher is no good in this dimension, after all. Yeah.

"Not a terrible idea, Morty. Y-You're starting to, to really think like a, like I dunno, like a scientist o-or something."

The next room is locked. A couple more zombies are yelling and hollering from the direction of the stairwell, so Rick just tosses a grenade that way. There's an explosion and the yelling turns briefly to screaming, then to silence. Nice.

"And watch our backs, Morty, I d-d-don't wanna get ass-fucked by a goddamn mushroom."

Oh, wow. 'Not a terrible idea' is pretty high praise coming from Rick. Sometimes shooting things together really does bring out that sense of family bonding, huh?

"Yeah, I've got it covered, Rick. Not turning into a zombie is, that's pretty much my top priority right now anyway." And for once, normal human priorities pay off.
