It feels good, sitting in this seat again after a while, and the other Rockets are sleepimg, I hope.
It was the middle of the night/early morning and after the incident earlier with soda, Rocket needed to do maintenance on the Milano, which was calming him down after being stressed and was sitting in his cockpit seat listening to music, yawnimg reclimg his seat wearimg headphones, feelimg his eyes close in sleep ignoring his phone, because Lylla was callimg him, seeing Rockford entering the Milano, takimg the headphones off Rocket's furry ears seeimg him begin to stkr, wondering if something was wrong.
"Rockette, Hulkcoon Week is beginning for her, Lyllie told me." he said makimg Rocket sigh.
He just wanted to sleep, not deal with stress, texting his big sister, Riley to deal with Rockette, seeimg her understanding putting a paw on his furry shoulder, saying they had to help the Rockets, with this world, seeimg Casey there understanding alomg with Riley, seeimg a Hulked-out Rockette, makimg Rocket gulp at this, imagining Casey like this when this started happening to her, seeimg Lyllie with brownies.
"It's alright Rocky, you have to calm down"Riley said to her.
Rockette was shrinking down to her normal height, feeling weird, feelimg Lyllie hug her, along with Casey and Riley stunning the other Rockets who were a litle scared, seeing Rufus hug her too.
"She can't help it, she's going through Hulkcoon Week, something that happens for girls of our species, when we hit puberty." Riley said makimg Rock and Thorocket anxious makimg Rockette sad, wiping tears away, scampering off as Rocket had helped make safe nests, where they could relax, if they got scared or upset, guessing Rockette was going to hers, makimg Rocket feel bad for her, knowing it wasn't her fault.
"We should leave her alone, let Riley talk to her." Rockford said to them, seeing Riley taking the brownies to Rockette hearing sniffles from the female variant's safe nest, knocking gently, seeing Rockette poke her furry head out, stunned seeimg Riley there with brownies.
"Sweetie they're not mad at you, I explained to them, I brought chocolate." she told her strokimg her hair with a paw which was helpimg Rockette sniffle which was a good thing.
She was hanging out with Rockette, listening to her tellimg her about her story, which impressed Riley knowing that her magic would be easy when Wanda started teaching her, and that gave Rockette hope, getting that Lyllie accepted her and loved her makijg Riley smile seeing her yawning guessing she was exhausted, wrapping the blanket around her, letting her be, seeing a protection bubble around the nest.
"Is Rockette alright, she's calm right?" Rocket asked seeing Riley nod.
"Yes she's asleep in her nest, Rockie, are the others okay?" she told him.
She showed him, Rockette's nest impressing Rocket putting a paw near it, feelimg magical energy, seeing a smile onher furry face in sleep relieving him, impressed that Riley had calmed the female variant, guessing his sister had formed a friendship with Rockette which was sweet going to check on the other Rockets, seeing Thorocket angry, throwing his hammer at targets, makimg Rocket wonder what was wrong seeing a platypus Loki.
"Holy Asgard, you have explaining to do." he said.
"I was from Midgard but my adopted father, Odin enchanted me and gave me powers, then he found and adopted Loki but we would be at odds, he somehow found his way here." Thorocket replied seeing Rocket help banish Loki, relieving Thorocket fist-bumping realising it had been a crazy night so Rocket was going to his safe-nest which was in the Milano's downstairs cabin, plus nobody could start the ship, as he had the keys. wrappimg the blanket around him.
"Too late to call Thor, he'd find it strange that I helped Thorocket fight platypus Loki, or maybe I imagined it." he said yawning looking at his Nintendo Switch, since he and Thor would play video games together, activating his nest's defenses fallimg asleep as he needed it after a crazy night.
"Is uncle Rockie okay, after last night?" Rockford heard Casey ask.
It was the next morning and Casey alomg with the other Rockets had just woken up, after the crazy night seeing Lyllie putting pancakes on a plate for Rockette, because her soulmate didn't want to show her face after last night, makimg the others understand that she was not feeling good like Riley had told them last night.
"He's probably in his nest, we should let him rest as last night stressed him out." Riley told Casey seeing her understand seeing the other Rockets wonder, if Rocket was mad at them, seeimg Ranger shakimg his furry head, tellimg them that Rocket was fond of them, it took him a while to get used to new pdope relievimg them, seeimg Rockford agreeing.
"He speaks the truth, we'll see him later." he assured them.
We should make Rockette feel better too." Thorocket said seeing Lyllie agree.
They were following her to Rockette's safe nest, seeing the female variant surprised, seeing them hearing Rock telling her making her feel warm inside at her brothers, stunning them by her thoughts, hearing her explaining that Rocket thought of them as ohana so she thought of them as her brothers, feelimg them hug h seeimg Lyllie join them..
Mantis then had an idea, to do a group mindfylness session with them and Rocket, seeing Rockford agreeing, seeing Rocket there seeing them hug him, which made him smile, agreeig to join them in the group session, he wanted to bond with them impressing Rockette as they were following Mantis after breakfast, enjoying it astounding the female empath, especially him leading the other Rockets to the Milano, since he had not piloted in a wNile.
"This is going to be awesome, dudes!" Rock said buckling himself into his seat, alomg with the other Rockets, making Rocket smile starting up the ship, feeling adrenaline flow through him, as they blasted off chucklimg hearing their reactions, which felt good after so long telling stories and them being impressed, just having fun, arriving on Knowhere making them curious.
They were hanging out at Starlimgs Tavern, having drinks, bonding likimg this seeing the other Rockets agreeing, hopimg his Avenger friends would not worry about him, seeing Rufus being mischievous only the bazaki racing made Rudiger nervous getting back in the papoose, which Rocket understood.
"Relax buddy, nobody's gonna make you race." he assured him.
After returning from their adventure, Rocket saw the other Rockets leaving the Milano, but was stayimg in the cockpit after taking the keys out seeimg Rudiger asleep in the papoose, makimg Rocket smile, kissimg his furry little head, listening to music yawning fallijg asleep just as Mantis was checkimg on him.
"Ssh, he's sleepimg after your little joyride, alomg with Rudiger." she told the other Rockets, seeimg them watching him sleep leaving him be.
