I don't know if the artist/writer did it on purpose, but I like how, in the very brief flashback glimpses we get of Morph's parents in Exiles:

you could see how those two people could conceivably have a child who grows up to look like this:

Although Exiles Morph's "human child" form is blond like his father. IF TAS Morph has the same origin of being born as a vaguely human-shaped blob (and I'm not 100% sold on that, we really don't know), my headcanon is that TAS Morph's human form is basically copying and combining their parents' features. They didn't even really intend to, they just sort of did it instinctively as they grew, because children expect to look like their parents.

Further headcanon: Whenever child Kevin was upset with one parent, their features would subtly change to resemble the other parent slightly more. That was also an unintentional, subconscious thing. (At first, at least. I could see an older Morph doing it on purpose to be a little shit.) They definitely looked more and more like their mother while she was dying.

I can't take how pretty they look here 😭

Me when people on tiktok say they are the 1. Morph fans

NO BECAUSE I WANNA KNOW WHERE THEY CAME FROM???
