Wow, everything's calm after what they were doing. Maybe I should check on them…
Rocket had just gotten home from date night with Nebula but noticed things were quiet making hisanxiety activate until he entered the room, that Lylla, Floor, Phylla and Teefs had been hanging out in making a smile cross his face as it reminded him of old times and was getting Ian idea knowing it would be okay lying down near them which felt good, like in the past feeling calmer since all night his anxiety had went nuts with his friends and Phylla here on their own then being on date night with Nebula so lying here with friends was relaxing him into sleep mode. Phyla's eyes fluttered open sensing Rocket's aura trying not to let the glow of her illuminated pupilled eyes stir her new friends/sibs from sleep as it'd been a long day only more thoughts were on her mind which she could wait until morning to tell him knowing with being captain of their Guardians team among other things, she knew he didn't get much sleep then was cranky unless he had morning coffee.
"We're happy you're snuggling with us, brother. Teefs was worried about you." she whispered softly into hus furry ear even though Teefs's gentle snores were drowning out her words but that was okay hearibg his snorts in sleep trying not to laugh knowing Lylla could hear them going back to sleep however later that morning, Lylla, Teefs and Floor exchanged grins seeing their best pal had slept with them only Lylla noticed how exhausted he looked seeing Phylla put his comm in off mode hearing Floor ask, if that was okay.
"Uh-huh, he needs his rest as everybody calls him. I hope my lil cousins are okay they're not getting their morning cuddles or biting his toes." Phylla told her making Lylla wonder why Rocket would let them do that. "It is confort for them and they don't know better." she said making them get it sensibg Rocket wanted to hang out with them despite being captain which they got hearing their stomaches gurgle meaning breakfast only because Rocket wasn't up and she wasn't allowed to cook, they were having cereal which was good.
"He must think we're mad at him for some reason, but we're not. Pkus snuggling relaxed him, I heard those snorts and know them anywhere like back in the day. We should tell him it's okay if he wants to hang out with us or snuggle. Were his family too despite what happened wasn't his fault it was the HE's. We saw how badly he wanted to come with us to the sky when we reunited last time and when we hang out in the dream world." Lylla told them making Phylla quiet making Teefs ask, if she was alright seeing her nodding but little pitter-patters broke her train of thought seeing Lylla, Teefs and Floor seeing a group of baby raccoons there or had came through the flap in the front door,.
"Guys these are my lil cousins I was telling you about. Guys, Rockie's asleep, deep asleep so he mightn't appreciate you biting his toes-" she said feeling them biting her furry toes astounding Teefs as Rocket never did that to them when he was this young asking if they should get Rocket seeibg her shake her furry head in reply as she was feeding them breakfast which was making them calm down but left after that getting the band-aids from where Rocket kept them.
"I'm good, and hope things are calm." she told them.
"Oh vey, they bit your toes, huh but why didn't you wake me up…. Ohhhh…" Rocket said.
"We didn't wanna wake you up, as you looked tired plus we know you snuggled with us which is okay." Lylla said making Rocket's furry cheeks go pink as he listened to what she was saying realising she was right and they were family not just friends hugging them sniffling making Phylla concerned for him.
"They're happy sniffles not sad ones because I'm happy we're together again." he said making her get it and was joining in the hug even though Casey had taught her about boundaries knowing it was okay seeing him wipe the tears away with his paw feeling his comm buzz deciding to ignore it surprising Phylla in case the Guardians needed him or adistress call hearing him snort majing Teefs giggle. "It's nothing the others can't handle since Groot's my co-captain." he said majing her get it.
