"Awww somebody looks cute, dressed like an Native American, since it is Thanksgiving." Rocket said to Shocket seeimg her wearing an Native American head-dress since it was Thanksgiving plus the kids had done their pageant which always happened every year, but Shocket and Terra had joined in.

"Yeah dada." she replied watchimg the Thanksgiving parade on the big-screen TV while on her dad's lap.

It was indeed Thanksgiving in the Avengers compound meaning antics especially the football game, which most of the guys especially Rocket were looking forward to , knowing the kids would join in so they werr being careful seeing Shocket and Terra playimg outside which the adults understood, plus they were preparing for the picnic at the park, which Casey and the other kids were looking forward to.

"You think we can beat the adults in the football game?" she heard Thrud ask her seeing her nod.

She saw Shocket crawling over to them with the football in her little paws, which Casey hought adorable, guessing she wanted to play too even though she was too little giving Casey a devious idea, because if they used her as a secret weapon, they might win seeing her excited that the big kids were letting her join in, makimg Rocket wonder what was going on.

"Nothing, uncle." Casey told him making Shocket giggle still clutching the football which Rocket thought was cute.

"Awwww somebody wants to play football, eh?" he said toher because he was getting her ready for the picnic, knowing it would be fun, so saw her in a coperative mood, because it normally took him a while to get her ready, depending on his little girl's mood meaning she was gaining personality which was a good thing, so was putting her in overalls which made her look cute since she was probably going to get dirty.

"Yeah, playtime!" she said pointing to her trike making Rocket understand what she wanted.

"Come on sweetie, we're going to the park for thepicnic, remember?" he told her as they were leaving the room.

Sif found that adorable seeing Shocket reaching out for her, makimg Rocket chuckle at his little girl being cute, seeing that she and Thor had brought Asgardian rainbow cake for the picnic making Rocket curious, since mead was the best thing in the universe, making something cross his mind.

"Thoris bringing a mead keg, which I know you're excited about, since you both drink a lot of it." Sif told him, making Rocket excited making Lylla understand, plus she could keep an eye on Shocket for when he did start drinking.

"Sounds good, Sif." he told her as they were leaving the compound.

At the park, the kids were playing on the playground, including Shocket who was on the climbing wall, impressing Casey and her friends, along with Thrud hoping Rocket didn't see because he might flip out, if he saw, making Willow understand seeing Shocket climb back down, unaware Rocket had seen but impressed by what his little girl did hugging her.

"Maybe you'll start walking soon, which would be awesome." he told her seeing it was time for the football game, after convincing Shocket to give him the football, unaware that Casey and the others were involving her in the game, putting on football gear and padding, like some of the adults were doing makimg Casey giggle at their game plan making Rocket curious, about what they were doing, surprised seeing who their running tackle was.

"We have to be careful, alright?" he said making Casey giggle.

"Everybody put on your game faces!" she said to her cousins, seeing them agree, starting the game making the adults impressed by their planning especially using Shocket which Rocket thought was sneaky.

"Touchdown!" Shocket said gigglimg which they found adorable.


It was later that night/early morning, but the kids were still up despite the fact it was way past their bedtime so Shocket was deciding to sneak out of bed so she could join in with the fun, relieved that her dad was in the tech-lab so she could do this getting onto her trike, pedalimg out of the room impressing Casey and the other kids, hoping that Rocket would not be too mad, if he knew she was up which they didn't mind since it was Thanksgiving break.

Rocket was hearing immense laughter, looking at the clock, seeing it was two in the morning wondering if Carol, Scott, Sif, Soren, Thor and Zora knew the kids were still up, going to check on them seeing they were playing hide and seek seeing Shocket crawling around making him surprised, that she had gotten up, plus guessed that she had just wanted to play with her cousins.

"Come on starshine, you look really sleepy, plus you had a long day." he told her picking her up gently, and pushing her trike back to their room despite her protesting, which was because she was exhausted, tucking her into her bed which had a stars banket on it, seeing her get sleepy, making him relieved, because he was also exhausted, from the long day too.

The later morning, Shocket was grumpy because she had been up late along with her cousins which the adults understood, seeing Rocket putting pop tarts in the toaster as he knew Shocket loved them, noticing he was tired too, seeing him drinking coffee making Shocket curious, grabbing the mug drinking, gigglimg because of the coffee.

"Hey where did my coffee go?" Rocket said seeing Shocket hiccuping and gigglimg, realising where it went, a bit amused by this hopimg that she would calm down sooner or later makimg Thor wonder if Shocket was alright.

"She's hopped up on coffee, like when we drink mead." Rocket replied to him seeimg Shocket crawling around at super-speed making them worried for the female toddler's energy boost, making Rocket racing after her hearing her gigglimg.

Later that afternoon, Rocket was trying to get Shocket to take an nap, because she had been up late last night along with her cousins so was reading her a story involving Carol and Kamala along with Spider-Man having to stop the Green Goblin which was working, seeing her out like a light, tucking her into her bed, kissing her furry little head, leaving their room.
