#-guardians of the galaxy which I KNOW i hate marvel but gotg does tickle me

[wickedpact]

I've only skipped through FM, but oof is what I have to say, the comics are okay, but the movie just takes the what could've been and did it.

emotionally i tend to view the comics as kind of a rough draft of the movie(s). i feel a little bad about that sometimes, bc the comics arent baaad? but it is how i view them, like i always read them like 'oh yes, i See how this could be done with a lot of nuance and emotional depth in the movie, uh-huh, uh-huh, i see, excellent'

Stubborn love; Rocket x reader

This request comes from here on tumblr by one of my newest tumblr friends coolbonnieblr who wanted a Rocket raccoon oneshot.  Now this one is a bit different from all my other fics cause this time I wrote it all in the POV of Rocket instead of the reader so I hope that’s cool with all of you. I do NOT own Rocket nor any of the GOTG they belong to Stan Lee/Marvel/Disney. Hope you all enjoy :)

Warnings: Swearing, bar violence, and making out.

*Rocket’s POV*

God the way she just presents herself it’s like—like nothing I’ve ever experienced in all my life.  She’s even more beautiful than an explosion going off or even one of my favorite guns, she’s in a class all on her own.  That’s why I doubt she’d ever really go for someone like me, I mean, who would date someone who Quill calls a raccoon whatever the hell that is.

“I am Groot”.

“No I am not thinking about her!” I proclaimed.

“Not thinking about who?” I heard her voice say. I turned to see (y/n) standing there with her phaser in hand.

“No one nobody Groot’s being an idiot like usual. So are we close to Knowhere yet?” I asked her.

“In a few minutes, hey Rocket can you take a look at my phaser it’s acting up again”.

“Bring it over here”.  She walked up to me and I took her phaser and began to work my magic (well mainly fixing the bug I made. I don’t mess with her weapons to be creepy okay!) As I began fixing it, I took notice of her eyes so focused on her phaser.

Whenever she focuses on something mainly her weapons, I always notice her eyebrows kinda furrow downward and every now and again her tongue kinda pokes out at the corner of her mouth showing that she has only one thing on her mind and that’s her armory.

Gah Rocket focus here! Okay yeah, yeah that’s it good Rocket.  Once the problem was solved I handed it back to her and said.

“There you go, there was a bug in it that made it short circuit. It should be okay now”.

“Thanks Rocket I owe you one!” She then kissed the side of my cheek and thank kriff for my fur because I was definitely blushing at this point or was it just hot in here for some flarg reason.

“Yo Rocket! We’re approaching Knowhere get up here!” I heard Quill’s voice proclaim.

“On my way up!” I touched my face where (y/n) kissed me and I felt all tingly inside that’s when I heard Groot clear his throat and look at me with that stupid face of his again, “Shut up! And don’t you dare breathe a word about this to anyone!” I walked up the stairs back up to the deck and sat in my pilot’s seat.

Once we reached Knowhere, Peter and Gamora handled the trade deal we were coming back from while Drax, Groot, (y/n) and I stayed in the pub and just did whatever the hell we wanted to wind down from the assignment.  Drax, Groot and I were watching the rats’ survivor race.  Everyone was cheering and pushing one another to just see the show all except (y/n).

I saw her by the bar drinking alone.  I got out of my seat and said to her.

“This seat taken?” She turned and smiled softly and said.

“Not at all, please”.  I sat down beside her and it was silent between us for a moment. I can’t believe I’m gonna go with this line but Quill says it works with the girls.  

“So—what’s a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?” (Y/n) looked at me and actually giggled softly.

Never have I heard anything so beautiful before. It tickled my ears so lovingly and actually made me smile a bit.

“Fella done me wrong”.

“Really? Do I have to give him a talkin to or what was he did to you?”

“Not a damn thing. Sure he’s all tough and broody on the outside, but deep down he’s all fluff”.

“Would I know who he—”

“Hey cutie this seat taken?” We both turned around to see a man with brown hair standing on the other side of (y/n).

“I’m afraid it is now would you mind backing away from me please? You’re too close for my liking”. She stated firmly and turned back towards me but this guy just didn’t get it.

“Ahh come on now baby, the name’s Solo how’s about you and I take our conversation to the dance floor?”

“Didn’t you hear her she said no!” I growled.

“Beat it rodent this doesn’t concern you” he said to me as he pushed me off my seat and sat in my chair and got all up in (y/n)’s face.  “Come on doll, just one dance”.  I saw him grip (y/n)’s arm and saw her wince in pain.

“Let go of me”.

“Not until you come with me!”

“SHE SAID NO!!” I roared out as I leaped up at him and tackled him down to the ground.  I was literally clawing and biting the bastard over and over again until I felt arms wrap around me and pull me away from the bastard. 

“What is wrong with you!?”

“YOU!! YOU FLIRT WITH MY GIRL AGAIN AND YOU’LL GET FIVE OR SIX GOOD SHOTS SHOT UP YOUR FRICKEN—”

“Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa Rocket calm down!” (Y/n)’s voice said.  She then turned to the Solo guy and said.  “I suggest you get out of here. When my friend here says he’ll shoot you, he means it. And if you ever do this to another girl again I won’t hesitate to hunt you down and rip off the one thing that qualifies you as a man”.  The guy then ran away like a scared whitey.

I was then taken out of the pub and led back to the Milano.  (Y/n) holding me back the whole time, god I knew I had blew it this time. I tried to restrain myself but seeing that guy flirt with (y/n) and hurt her, I just snapped and now she must hate me and think I’m a little monster just like everyone else does.

When we reached my quarters, (y/n) set me down on my bed and wiped off the jerk’s blood from my muzzle without saying a word.

“I bet you think I’m a monster now?” I said solemnly.

“Now why would you think that?” She said.

“Because of what happened back there, you saw how everyone else was, I’ll understand if you feel the same”.

“Rocket you need to stop putting yourself down. See yourself the way I do”.“And it what way do you see me?”

“A strong, funny, clever, smart-mouthed member of the Guardians of the Galaxy. But also the man I love”.  I looked up at her in shock. 

Did—did she just say?

“Yes Rocket, I thought I made myself clear at the bar?”

“But I—I thought….”

“Well truthfully Peter told me he could hear you once calling my name in your sleep, I’ve known ever since then”.  What!? That was over three weeks ago when I had a dream about her finally after finally realizing my feeling for her ohh I’m so gonna kill Quill!  “Is what he told me true though? Cause you know how he can be….”

Before she said another word, I cupped her face with my paws and pressed my lips to hers.

“Yes. It’s true, for once Quill’s not pulling your leg, I really do love you (y/n). I couldn’t bring myself to tell you because I—I thought you’d want someone who was—well human”.

“Love knows no boundaries between species and gender Rocket. I love you for you, nothing more nothing less. All the flaws and crappy things you say, I love everything about you”.  She cupped my face with her hand and I nuzzled into it.

I took her hand in mine and pressed a kiss at the center of her palm before moving up her arm until finally reaching her neck.  I heard her sweet giggle once again which made me smirk and my whiskers twitch which made her giggle some more.  I just had to hear more of that sweet sound.

“Hey (y/n) I was wondering if you—WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING TO MY COUSIN ROCKET!!” We both turned around to see Quill standing there like an idiot with eyes ready to pop out of his head.

“There’s this really cool thing Quill, it’s called PRIVACY!!”
