MY SONGS KNOW WHAT YOU DID IN THE DARK — private

[dannychan]

Something very interesting had happened on their last mission. As they went through a wormhole type thing, rocket had just completely collapsed, writhing in pain and screaming. His bones shifted and grew, and his fur had either fallen out or changed, his claws and teeth and snout had all.. morphed. The crew had done everything they could to stop the transformation and stop the pain, but all they could do was leave him to change. Touching him caused pain, and he just yelled at them to stop looking when they tried to help.
Something in that wormhole had tampered with his cybernetics, and when the screaming had passed, and everyone went to check, what stood in rockets place, was not a raccoon, but a fully grown, ragged man. He was short sure, but he wasn't a talking woodland creature.
The crew were still getting used to rocket, and rocket seemed.. completely ok with it. A week had passed and he had been treating it like nothing had happened. He wouldn't say anything, but he liked that there was finally someone like him, or he was finally like someone else. It made him feel like he wasn't so alone in the world.
He sighed as he sat with baby groot, telling him to keep quiet. He had stolen peter's MP3 while he slept, and was now looking through all the songs and playing the Ines that sounded interesting, only to scoff in disgust. He sighed. "This guys taste in music.." he mumbled. "I am groot." The tree said. "No, groot. He doesn't have that song." He said. "I am groot!" The tree yelled, and the former raccoon put a finger over the trees tiny mouth. "Hush! You'll end up waking starmunch!"

Peter hadn't really been sleeping all that well. A lot happened in a quick amount of time and he was trying to get himself adjusted to it. He had gone to rest, and had found that his MP3 was taken. He knew of one person who would probably take it. He didn't care, but the music helped him relax. He sighed, heading off to find Rocket.

He stopped when he spotted him. It was still a surprise to see him as a human. He'd get used to it though. He looked him over. Sure enough he had the MP3 player. "Anything interesting on there?" Peter asked, leaning against the wall and watching him.

HE jumped, and turned to claw peters cheek, but they just resulted in a gentle slap. He blinked, remembering he was no longer a raccoon. He huffed softly and pushed the MP3 away. "No. Where's all the Elvis and Beatles and that shit?" He hissed. He certainly sounded the same- hissy and an obvious northerner accent.

[Leafwing12]

He blinked, raising an eyebrow at the sudden slap. It didn't hurt since he didn't really put much force into it. He blinked. "I'm not into Elvis and Beatles, so there's nothing on there bybthem. I'm sorry if that disappoints you." He said, watching him. He took the player, setting it in his picket

He rolled his eyes. "Yeah yeah, starmunch." He grumbled.

[Leafwing12]

He sighed, standing up. "Right. I'm going to lay down. Keep out of trouble trash panda." He said. He then turned, leaving the room.

[dannychan]

He blinked and hesitated. "Wait, peter-.." shit, what was he doing?

[Leafwing12]

He stopped. He turned back to face him. "Yeah?" He asked.

[dannychan]

He hesitated. "You doing ok? I know you're probably having a real hard time getting over yondu's death and all.."

[Leafwing12]

He glanced down, staying silent for a moment before nodding. "Yeah, I'm alright Rocket." He said, looking at him and giving him a faint smile.
