#round rocket

[raccoonfallsharder]

Ok so like I'm now obsessed with chonky Rocket and keep making headcannons...

Can you imagine that like, he's always been in some form of Chronic pain. He assumes it must be because of his implants and surgeries, etc.

After putting on a little bit of weight and filling out, the pain subsides a lot and he feels stronger and healthier than ever. And he's just like "are you flarking kidding me right now??? That was it this whole time?? I just needed to eat more?"

this made me think of creamy fajita pasta nonnie ♡

hey, you’ve done your research since getting your new sometimes-houseguest. you know that the studies on diet and chronic pain have produced… varied results. some say hunger competes with and thus diminishes pain sensations. others say it sensitizes a person to them. more consistently they argue that different foods increase or decrease muscle inflammation and thus impact pain indirectly, though few can agree on what the beneficial foods are.

but whatever the case, you knew the minute you pulled rocket over your threshhold that the boy was hangry. not just for food and bodily nourishment, you suspect, but also for… rest. safety.

luckily you are in a great position to provide all three right now. that favorite family recipe? you’ve got it cooked up in no time. comfort food, you tell him. at first he’s wary — of course — but he soon realizes you’re too slow and unskilled at any kind of combat and like? weirdly warm-natured? to be an actual threat to him. so he tries the food and it’s so good and tasty and warm and soon it becomes a regular thing: him coming over for meals and movie nights, crashing on the couch so you’ll make him breakfast on your free mornings.

it’s almost all rib-sticking food, and stick to his ribs it does.

his elbows stop looking so sharp and his muscles start looking less brittle, and his belly gets soft and round. his fur’s goddamn luxurious now and you have caught him studying his arms and tail, almost preening, more than once. not that you’d hold it against him — the guy deserves to feel good in his body for once.

it’s the first snowfall of the season one morning. nothing is sticking yet, but it’s pretty and it makes everything seem quieter. you toss a french toast casserole in the oven while he stares out the window at the dancing flakes with a blanket over his shoulders. you come up behind him and hand him a cup of cocoa, and you stare with him, soaking it in.

“didn’t even realize the temperature dropped,” he utters hoarsely after a long silence.

you feel your brow crease. “no?”

he clears his throat. “usually the screws in my bones get all… shitty. when it starts to get cold.” he hesitates. “less pain than usual, i think. in general. don’t know what happened.” he looks down at his cocoa. “maybe it’s the food,” he decides after a moment. “yeah. maybe terra’s good for something.”

“rude,” you say mildly, and he casts a sly sideways wink up at you. you can’t help but laugh.

maybe it’s the food, sure. the new lack of starvation in his body. maybe it physically helps him be more comfortable, cushions his nerves from the dull ache and sharp heat of his broken and re-rigged bones, his icy metal implants. maybe it just makes him less irritable and grumpy, which in turn makes him less physically tense, and when his muscles relax the pain eases a bit with them. or maybe it’s just that he can rest easy once he walks through your door: roll out his shoulders, wrap himself in something warm, indulge himself with your company, and not feel like he has to justify his existence for a few fuckin precious hours.

it may or may not be the food, but rocket’s whole body is feeling better these days.

hey i uh resonate with rocket a lot as someone who also has a super-fucked-up skeleton and i wish so badly that food could just be the simple answer for this little guy. and me actually lol while im at it. and everyone else with pain. it is. not great lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Round 1 Match 2

[sonic-oc-showdown]

ROUND 1

Cessare belongs to @pactwraith

Rocket belongs to @bees-are-my-thing-bro

Find out more about them below!

Cessare the Idol:

Cessare the Idol is a well-renowned pop star who performs under the name Love☆Sick, known for her over-the-top performances and outfits just as much as she's known for her catchy music! Her public persona is bright and peppy, interacting with fans and the press in a way that makes her come across as personable and friendly. Behind closed doors, this mouse is actually terribly shy, and has gone into the worst career imaginable for someone with horrible stage fright!

Chasey's true passions lie in fashion design and charity work, but her stage presence is the thing that got her out of a life of petty crime and into a far more comfortable one, so she's rather stuck in the spotlight for the forseeable future. She's determined to tough it out and maintain her safe lifestyle … but between pushy invasive fans and old criminal colleagues trying to blackmail her, things don't look to be getting any less complicated anytime soon!

Rocket the Shadow Android:

(art by @/Eggskie)

Rocket is a very silly Shadow Android who loves anything space related, oversized sweaters, and stickers! They're shy, yet very sweet and kind once you get to know them. They're also a bit feral and animalistic, as they're often seen scamperring around on all 4s, leaving " gifts " at the door, or just generally being a snugglebug with someone. :]

Disney Parks Animatronic Tournament: Bracket A/Tier 1 Round 1

Rocket Raccoon: Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: Breakout!(2017-current) - Disney California Adventure

Propaganda:

"When I first rode mission breakout I was so sad that the original tower of terror was gone, but I LOVE ROCKET RACCOON. This audio animatronic is so fluid and realistic, and honestly I felt a little starstruck when he popped his little head out. He didn’t even feel like a robot. Also he moves around up there instead of being stuck to one spot, which I thought was clever. All around he just has the right ENERGY. He sparks joy!"
