"Come on kitdo, you have to get ready, your aunts and uncles from outer space are gona be here soon." Rocket said to Shocket.
The female infant in question was climbing after discovering she could, so was doing it which the others and Rocket found cute, but right now he hadto get his little girl ready before the other Guardians got here, having no choice but to use his boosters, catching her before she climbed too high and got hurt.
"I know you're upset, but we have to get ready." he told her as they were getting reAndy.
After washing and drying her, putting her in an onesie that matched his arumour, Rocket was putting her in the highchair, so he couldfeed her, hopimg that Mantis might help Shocket calm down, using her empath powers.
He heard her giggle hearing the tea kettle whistle, relieving him hoping that mood would last, deciding to keep what happened to himself feeding Shocket making Casey grin saying the Milano was here making him nervous making Shocket curious, as to why.
"I just want them to see, that I can be a ood father." he mumbled softly.
Casey remembered that during video-calls this week, Starlord had been teasing her uncle, knowing he was an awesome dad to Shocket, telling him not to listen to Starlord which made him feel better picking Shocket up, seeing the others here with gifts for Shocket, who was hiding behind his back which the others found cute.
"It's alright, as they're family, sweetie." he to,d her seeing her curious about Groot, making Rocket smile watching his little one playing with his best friend making Starlord grin at that.
"She's so a mini-you, is she ready to eat trash?" he joked making Rocket annoyed, which Shocket didn't notice, playing with toys that her uncles and aunts had brought her making Mantis understand, using her empath powers to calm things down, seeing Casey there making Starlord happy, deciding to take her out for a while.
"It's alright, Shockie, daddy feels better, after Aunt Mantis helped." Rocket said to Shocket.
Gamora, Groot and Mantis found that adorable, hearing him wonder what Starlord was doing with Casey, hearing Thor say, it involved slurpies making him sigh, knowing Casey would be really hyper when she came back, knowing her parents would flip, playing with Shocket.
"Yeah we're having major fun you know?" he said to her, remembering later, he and the other Guardians were going to have drinks so Sif and Thor along with Gamora and Mantis were going to watch Shocket knowing she would be a good girl.
"I am Groot, I am Groot!" Groot said to him, as Shocket was swinging on one of his vines which Rocket thought cute seeing Starlord back with Casey drinking slurpies seeing Casey really hyper, making Rocket nervous.
"That's enough slurpie for you, young lady." he said taking it off Casey, putting it on the table, unaware that Shocket was drinking it liking it, making Gamora face-palm at this seeing Shocket hyper-active and climbing reallyhigh, making Rocket nervous, in case Shocket got hurt.
"I put it on the table, after getting it out of Casey's paws, I didn't mean for her to drink it." he told them.
He managed to calm her down a little, seeing Groot help him, getting Shocket down, rocking her gently to sleep, relieving Rocket putting his little girl down for an nap seeing Casey was also asleep, after all that energy.
"At least she's calm now, thanks to you and Groot, plus we'll takegood care of your little cutie, while you and the guys are out." Mantis assured Rocket.
"I know you will, and she'll be in a happier mood, when she wakes up, Casey too." Rocket said.
Rocket was giving Gamora, Mantis, Sif and Thorinstructions, on how to keep Shocket happy until he got back despite them assuring him that everything would be alright, and to have fun seeing him kiss Shocket's furry little head before he left, so she would not get upset, seeing her sleeping with the plush hehad given her which made him happy.
"Thanks, as I care about her a lot." he to,d them leaving with Groot
After a while, Shocket began to stir in a good mood, just like Rocket had toldthem, playing with her, after feeding her along with changing her diaper hearing Casey and the other kids running around playing.
"That's good that they're playing, plus Shocket is being a really good girl." Gamora heard Sif say, while making a bottle of milk for Shocket hoping Rocket and the others weren't having too much fun, makimg Mantis agree.
They then heard the phonego off, as it was Rocket checkimg in, to see how Shocket was doing, hearing Sif tell him that everything was alright, along with Shocketbehaving, hanging up after letting Shocket hear her dad's voice assuring her, he was coming home in a bit.
"That's good he didn't get into trouble, so Shocket is helping him." Gamora told Mantis.
"Yep, she sure is, which is a good thing." Mantis replied to her seeing Shocket sleepy guessing it was nearly the infant kit's bedtime, so Mantis was using her powers to sooth her intosleep putting her in her crib tucking her in, leaving her to sleep making themselves coffee.
After a while, Rocket was bck relieved that Shocket was sleeping, besides being calm thanking them for watching his little one makimg Gamora and Mantis understand hearing things hadn't been too cracy, besides betting on bazaki on Knowhere making them relieved.
