Awwww, she's so cute sleeping and probabky dreaming abiut sone of the things we did today like Coney Island and doijg the rollercoaster arms and get she doesn't like sleeping alone which we'll work on like Lylla suggested earlier.

It was early-morning and Rocket had gotten up to use the restroom but when he got back in his room, he'd noticed Phylla was tucked up in his bed guessing the golden-furred female-kit didn't like sleeping alone which he understood so would let her stay in the bed, yawning as he was exhausted too wrapping his arms arouhd her gently protectively falling asleep lulled by Phylla's gentle sleep-noises kissing her furry heas in sleep hearing purring

A bit later that mirning, he slipped out of ged to make himsekf coffee and make breakfast for him and Phylla making pancakes for them but pouring milk into a cup, so Phylla couldn't have coffee being young hearing her awake scampering over to him hugging his leg hearing him chuckle.

"Groot Morning honey-coon and see you didn't like sleeping alone which is fine butvwe'll work on this." he replied to her seeing her sitvat the table drinking some milk which was refreshing to her mouth after sleepihg seeing pancakes making Rocket smirk noticing she was quiet.

"You think our friends are missing us, on the ship, daddy." she asked him.

"They probabky do but we'll see them sion." he told her as they ate, but was getting messy making Rocket chuckle, grabbing a napkin wiping her golden-furred chin hearing her giggle which made him happy knowing they would be returning to the ship later but she felt sad and wanting to cry but didn't want to in front of her big, brave daddy only Rocket could sense something was up with his bubbelah seeing her turn away from him.

"Bubbelah is everything okay, as you look sad like you're about to cry, it's ok to cry, daddy cries too when sad." he told her strokihg behind her golden-furred ear hearing her start crying as she'd felt ship-sick which he understood rubbing her back humming which was helping her seeing her wipe her eyes with a paw.

"Thanks daddy, I feel a lil better." she told him.

"That's good you feel better as it's okaybto be sad, sometimes sadness is a good thing for us." he told her nuzzling his snout against hers which she loved and returned knowing things woukd be okay sensingvLylla guessing she'd heard the crying thinking it was Him.

"Everything okay, I heard crying." she said.

"It was me, I just had a sadness fit." Phylla told her, explaining.

"Awwww that was good of him to tell you this, as we should not hide our feels and ignore whatva certain mad scientist told you, emotions are good." she said seeing Rocket quiet, guessing he was thinking about this.

"I-I'm okay just letting you handle this, I did what I could." he replied to her.

"I think daddy is needing help too, we just have to wait but it diesn't take long." she told Phylla.

Rocket sighed, curling up into a furry ball in his room hugging himself as what Lylla had told Phylla had made sonecstrong emitions stir especiakky anxiety andcakso sadness squeezihg his eyes shut trying to squelch the emotions down knocking over a framed photo cursing in Hebrew so his kit coukdn't hear unaware Lylla had heard him sensing Phylla wasn'tvthe only one that needed to cry seeing him ckeaning up the glass so Phylla wouldn't get hurt making Lylla guess that's what was upsetting him, along with her mentioning the High Evkouitionary had set him off hearing him hiss as he)£ stepped on some glass he'd missed.

"I git it, " he mumbled pulling it out wincing a little as he hated seeing blood because of the past when the High Evlouitionary had experimented on him which they got but saw him upset but wiping tears away withba paw after bandaging it and cleaning it up seeing Phylla hug him hearing sniffling, relieving Lylla as she'd worried about him sometimes

"See, it's okay to cry sweetie." she told Phylla seeing her nodding seeing the pod there as hecand Phylla got in taking deep-breaths feeling Phylla squeeze his paw asking if he was okay.

"I'm okay kiddo, sorry I scared you." he told her.
