"Ooh, what that?" Shocket asked seeing her dad's mug of coffee on the table in the Avengers kitchen, makimg the female toddler curious along with her feathery best pal, Linda as they were hanging out like their dads which had been Rocket's idea.
"This is the stuff our dads and all the grown-ups in the galaxy drink, you thinking what I'm thinking?" Linda told her, makimg Shocket's brown eyes widen in excitement because she wanted to try it only her dad would not let her try it, saying it was not for kids to drink, climbing onto the counter top impressing Linda.
"Let's drink mud!" she said makimg Linda grin at her best friend seeing her drink some, makijg her jittery and her eyes dilated, just as her dad walked in surprised that she had just drank coffee making Howard chuckle, seeing the female kit run off in a blur, making Rocket worried at what a caffeine-boosted Shocket might do going after her.
"Relax Rockie, this is hilarious, besides she was gonna do it sooner or later-" Howard said.
"No it's not, Shocket could cause damage or get hurt in this state!" Rocket replied.
He knew that Mantis could help calm his little girl down using her empathicpowers, like when Groot ate gamma-soil making her wonder what had him so worried, hearing him explain makimg her surprised, knowing there was no way he would let Shocket drink cofee, so was wanting to help before something happened, or Shocket got hurt seeing Kamala there, saying Shocket was in the tech-lab.
"That's not good, she might get hurt!" Rocket said leaving the room.
He found Shocket using repulsor blast gloves making him worry, seeing replusir blasts shoot out, hitting targets impressing him, hopimg she would calm down off the coffee. seeing her sleepy, catching her, removing the gloves leaving there with her, relieving Rocket and impressing Howard letting him take care of her making Linda feel a little bad for encouraging Shocket to drink coffee leaving her friend to nap.
"It's alright, I know you dared her to drink coffee, but not mad at you, as your dad and I did stuff like that as kids." Rocket assured the toddler duckling.
Shocket began to stir later that evening, not feeling herself plus had thrown up makimg Rocket relieved, as he was giving her a bath hearing her ask why she was not feeling good, making Rocket sigh, knowing Linda had dared her to drink coffee, making Shocket whimper because her stomach still hurt making him understand after drying her off, putting her in clean pyjamas along with putting a hot water bottle on her belly, hoping she would feel better in the morning, leaving her to sleep.
"Shocket's sleeping off being a little coffee monster, plus she threw up." Rocket said after Thor asked how Shocket was feeling.
"Awwww at least she has a good father who cares about her, who takes care of her, when she's sick." he replied to him.
After taking off his armour, Rocket was checking on Shocket seeing she was still sleeping which him smile, letting her be getting into bed, hopimg she would feel better in the morning, knowing Linda and Shocket were sort of like him and Howard at that age since Shocket had been curious, until Linda had encouraged her hoping she would have a bright future growing up falling asleep.
That morning, Shocket slowly stirred around ten in the morning which was not normal for her, getting out of bed sluggishly, her little tail drooping behind her legs, sluggishly walking into the kitchen sitting at the table on her booster seat, making Rocket relieved she was up, because he guessed that she was still tired from yesterday pouring apple juice into a tumbler and pouring cereal into a bowl.
"Thanks." she said yawning making him chuckle, putting them on the table in front of her.
He was keeping an eye on her just in case after yesterday, knowing today would be one of the days where she might need an nap seeing her done after a while, relieving him hoping she would feel better after her nap seeing her on the couch watching TV, going to do a little inventing but he would check on her later, hopimg she would be alright.
"Are you okay, as you're not your normal self?" Terra asked Shocket hearing her yawning.
"I was sick last night after Linda dared me to try coffee." she replied to her.
When Rocket came to check on Shocket, he saw her zoned out on the couch, making him grin so would make her a snack when she woke up, that would help her feel better because he had been talking to Howard while working on things, plus he and Shocket were meant to be having some time with her uncles and aunts on the Milano this weekend, so would have to wait and see.
After waking up, Shocket was feeling better, drinking juice makimg Rocket relieved, guessing she was feeling better, seeing her nod in reply seeing Terra hapy about that, because she was worried about her cousin, like Rocket had been seeing her wanting to play after her snack.
He just hoped that Shocket would not try coffee until she was old enough to try it, seeing her on his lap, making him feel better after what had happened yesterday.
