….. Huh, what's going on, why does the house feel so cold, no way, did it." Casey mumured to herself.
Casey Tessula Raccoon's eyes fluttered open feeling her room in her mom, Jupiter and hervstep-dad's house was chilly making her excitedly go to her bedroom window which was frosted over with beauitful designs seeing the snow had came, making her excited deciding to go outside and play despite being in her pyjamas putting on the beanie Rocket had given her making a small grin cross her furry lil face in mischief as Gamora and Rocket's house wasn't that far because Jupiter and Herbert's house was also on the grounds of Avengers Campus scooping up a snowball, hitting Emily and RJ's bedroom windows, seeing them rush out of their house ready to play, starting a massive snowball-fight giggling having a great time even Emily then building snow-cubs like in Animal Crossing paw-bumping, unaware Gamora was up realising this would happen, the moment they'd saw the snow was here.
"Emily, RJ come inside for breakfast please, you have to warm up and get ready for school, you too, Casey." she told them, making Casey smile following them inside taking off her beanie smelling pancakes and warm tea knowing Rocket had made them hearing Peach and Pepsi giggling while at the table on their booster seats making her smile as they were toddlers seeing Rocket happy to see her here, he missed her being in their house but Casey had to get used to Jupiter and Herbert seeing Emily and RJ dressed, sitting down as Rocket put napkin scarves around their furry lil necks hearing the doorbell.
"I wonder who this is, I wonder." Rocket said jokingly answering, seeing Herbert and Jupiter enter grinning, seeing Casey was there asking if they could join them seeing them nodding making places for them at the table making Emily and RJ very happy to see their aunt and uncle here surprising Casey at this because it was a few months after her mom and Herbert had gotten married, she still wasn't used to it.
"Happy Hannukah guys." she said making Gamora and Rocket exchange a grin, Casey knew they celebrated Hannukah and knew she celebrated Christmas so let her join in like teaching her songs, how to light a menorah among other things knowing Jupiter and Herbert wanted to talk to him while Gamora took the cubs to school, well Emily and RJ as Avengers Campus wasn't equipped for a cub like Casey so Jupiter was helping with this seeing her helping Peach and Pepsi cut up their pancakes.
"Thanks honey, as maybe we should teach your mom and dad what we do for Hannukah." Rocket said seeing her frowning which surprised him, she was normally full of joy saying she could go play her Switch while the adults talked after she put her dish in the sink grabbijg her Switch from her Grootpack realising Branchie was on her own in her room, using her super-speedto go back to Jupiter and Herbert's house, to her room grabbing the female-sapling who was in her flowerpot going back to her aunt and uncle's house relieving Rocket seeing she'd gotten Branchie seeing her squinting at her Groot friend.
"Is it just me or does Branchie look like me." she said making Rocket grin.
"Groots look like their parentals so because you're her mom in a way, she's looking like you." he told her.
"Ohhhh does Groot look like you, papa." she asked making him smile at this along with Herbert.
"Later we're getting our holiday tree which should be fun, right honey." Jupiter said to Casey.
"Yeah that would be fun, as long as we don't cut one down, Branchie would hate that." she said.
"I am Groot." Casey heard Branchie asking her, after they'd gotten back from being at Gamora and Rocket's house along with buying a holiday tree so she was putting her Groot pal down for an nap after such an active morning with the female-sapling asking questions because just like Casey was getting used to being with Jupiter and Herbert knowing when they'd lived with Gamora and Rocket, both young females would decorate the room for the holidays.
"Oh we're still doing that and brought the decorations with us, when we moved here, we'll do it later alright." Casey replied yawning making Branchie smile at thhe fact they would still do their holiday tradition like always at Gamora and Rocket's house making Jupiter smile watching, as she and Casey had to talk about thijgs.l.
