[ i just think it's funny if rocket and groot stroll in on the final minute before lockdown happens.

anyways his phone seems to be in the middle of playing this song as he holds it in one paw. he's humming along, singing a few words. groot is just. jumping into the store mid-dance, jamming his lil tree self out to the song.

rocket is turning down some aisles, humming some more, until the song pauses and cuts off. what. squinting at his phone while groot just gets angy because hello!! his music!! and starts smacking rocket's other paw. ] I am Groot.

What? Not my fault these phones are old. Just hurry and pick your snacks so we can go.

[ oh and ig he's got a gun almost as tall as him just strapped to his back. bige gun. ]

[squelching]

[the way she barely pays attention to rocket but immediately points at groot—]

Oh! It's you.

[ rocket doesn't matter anyways, groot is the star here. groot just freezes like :heicat: but offers a lil wave once he realizes. :o

rocket is more suspicious though. ] ...You need to stop meeting with strangers by yourself, Groot. I am Groot. Yeah well you ain't right now.

[squelching]

[HELP. she gives them a funny look...]

He's not Groot right now...?

[outrages]

[ this is so funny ]

That ain't what he said. [ technically it is? ] His speakings isn't as good as you and I's so you may hear him say that but he's talking about something else. I am Groot. He says thanks for the help with picking from the vending machine the other day.

[stunwhistle]

[he should probably be more startled by bige gun than he is, but. he's not.



he waves.]

Hey, you two. Got the munchies?

[outrages]

[ it's fine, just keeping what's his closeby. ]

Groot did. He specifically wanted the "stars" from this place. Whatever the heck that means. [ groot abandons his smacking of rocket's paw to come run to will, hiiiii. ] I am Groot.

[stunwhistle]

...Starburst, maybe?

[he will crouch down to pick groot up and get him settled on his shoulder.]

[outrages]

Could be, could be literally something far from a star. He'll get distracted and take something out for himself either way.

[ but it's fine, rocket is rummaging for some munchies himself... plucking a juice box to stick a straw in and drink. Groot settles comfortably on Will's shoulder, doing the happy kickie legs. happy little tree already having forgotten the music cut so fast help. ]

[stunwhistle]

[and here will was, ready to hum a song for groot if he wanted to boogie]

I guess that's fair, but now I'm curious what he meant.

[outrages]

[ will can still do that.... tag team boogie ]

I'll bet he's already forgotten all about it. [ gestures to groot who is just busy playing with will's lil gold hair now. help. ]

[stunwhistle]

[perhaps he will start humming later. for now, he chuckles a little as groot starts playing with his hair. he will just let this happen.]

Yeah, he does seem kinda distracted. Find any snacks you like for yourself?

[ groot will make a lil braid then. this is easy because vines are pretty braided right. ]

Just how he is when he's this young. [ glances at the stock... ] Anything with nuts or something's good enough I guess.

[stunwhistle]

That makes sense. Kids definitely struggle with attention spans.

[he says, as if he is so much older than the 16 years he is. he seems delighted to have a braid in his hair thank you groot.]

I think they should have a couple of types of trail mix...

[resumed]

[ not me finding half a tag to you on mobile when I swapped to tagging here. anyway he's just watching from a few aisles over, not at all surprised by the scene. or the big gun. but he leans a little to continue observing before shaking his head. ]

Should I be concerned you're calling these phones old?

[outrages]

[ t-poses at you ]

Technically it's pretty old compared to the tech I'm used to. Communication devices are more of the hologram kind. From within ships or simple lil ear pieces for quick communication. Though, guess it's pretty handy to stick music and communication together. If I had to give any credit that is.
