Wow, Rockford's here, which should be fun, despite everybody being curious, however Casey looks excited, I should tell her, in case she asks questions.
"That's Rockford, the older version of me, and guess he couldn't stay away from here, which is awesome and yes, you can call him Grandpa if that's what you're asking." Rocket told Casey after the female kit had noticed the older male looked like him, in a souped up wheelchair with rocket boosters attached to it.
"Hey, you two it's good to see you, you know?" Rockford said, making Rocket smirk at his much older self, with Casey looking confused yet very curious about him seeing them going to the kitchen, making Thor impressed that Rockford was back.
"A while ago, many versions of your uncle showed up here from different dimensions, including Rockford, so your uncle is very happy to see him back." he told Casey making her impressed seeing an older version of Thor show up.
"Is Rockford alright, let me guess, he's with Rocket, right?" he said seeing Casey nod.
"I'm always looking out for him, you know?" he replied holding a hip flask, making Casey sense, there mead in it seeing the older Thor going to the kitchens seeing the look on Rocket's furry face, seeing the older version of his best Asgardian friend, hearing Rockford chuckle especially seeing the hip flask making him explain, that his Thor was his carer, always looking out for him.
"Who wants tea, you know?" Rockford asked seeing Rocket nod, hearing his much older self tell his Thor, to pour some of what was in the flask, into the teapit, makimg Rocket excited, smelling mead, making Rockford grin, like him when a plan went right among other things, seeing Casey and Thrud there making Rocket smirk at Thruds's reaction, to the older version of her dad.
"Mmmm, the tea does smell good!" Casey said makimg Rocket and Rockford exchange a grin at her words.
They were drinking, enjoying unaware there was a shot of mead in it, makimg them smirk, hoping thimgs would be alright, plus had found a downstairs room, for Rockford in the compound.
"That's awesome, that Grandpa Rockford is staying, plus we can have fun, you know?" Casey said to Rocket, as they were hanging out in the tech-lab later that night/early morning makimg Rocket smile, at her words, hoping his older self was adjusting to the compound, talking to her as he knew she stayed up like be did.
"Yeah, it's been a long while, since I saw Rockford, when the other-dimensional versions of myself came here." he told her, drinkimg coffee to keep himself mentally awake like Casey drinking soda, to keep herself mentally awake too making Rocket chuckle.
Later that morning, Rockford, and his Thor noticed a very tired Casey, that was drinkimg coffee, instead of de-caff, which made Carol nervous, along with Monica and Thrud in case their friend got hyper, hearing Rocket assure them, that Casey was too exhausted to go wild.
"You were up late, right?" Rockford heard Thrud ask Casey, seeing her quiet, while eating pancakes makimg Monica and Thrud hope that Casey might take an nap, while they were at school, making Rockford curious, hearing Rocket tell him, why Casey was not in school makimg him get it, seeing Casey rubbing her eyes with her paw.
"Go rest, alright?" Rockford told her, stroking behind her ears, making Rocket smile, along with Thor and Sif because Rocket had explained to them, making Carol smile seeing Casey leave the kitchen, going to her and Thruds's room to rest, knowing she would feel better, knowing how awesome she would be, when she grew up, smirking seeing Yama.
"Is Casey alright, as I saw her going to her and Thruds's room, is she alright?" the male kit asked.
"Yeah, she was up all night, hanging out with me, leave her be." Rocket told him, noticing Rockford, hearing Rocket explain, impressing him knowing that Casey would feel better, after resting seeing them agree.
