✩࿐࿔ comfort your inner kid, kid. [new 5/19/26]

✩࿐࿔ take what you need masterlist | twyn queue [HIATUS] fanfiction masterlist | navigation

fluff | gn reader | no use of y/n | anthology one-shot | ~ 2,061 words. read comfort your inner kid, kid on ao3 ✩࿐࿔ excerpt below the cut ~

sometimes, when we feel like we're threatened or in need of care, our younger self comes to the forefront: needing comfort, stability, patience, and support. in moments like this, the captain just wants to know how best to help.

NOTES: this was written for a sweet nonnie who requested it like, eight months ago (so sorry, darling). it's specifically focused on involuntary age-regression as a trauma-response. nonnie, i hope it is helpful and comforting to you, and meets whatever you're looking for. please know i've been holding you in my heart this whole time and wanting to make sure i did it justice.

FOR OTHER READERS: despite this being focused on involuntary age regression, i think a lot of it can be generalized to other significant anxiety reactions (like panic attacks and PTSD flashbacks), which can yield similar symptoms even while being very different internal experiences.

You’ve gotten good at identifying things and situations that will activate you — that will make your thoughts suddenly seem cloudy and intangible, your knees weak and unsteady as a fawn’s. Things that will make the tears spring to your eyes as you bite your lip, fighting the urge — no, the compulsion — to curl up under the bed or in the closet, knees folded to your chest.

But every once in a while, it still takes you by surprise.

fluff | gn reader | no use of y/n | anthology one-shot | ~ 1,608 words. read lean into your markings on ao3 ✩࿐࿔ excerpt below the cut ~

the captain understands being self-conscious of one's looks — but he hates that you do. he thinks your markings are cool, which is not a thing he just goes around telling people.

that's why he'd rather you stop covering 'em up.

NOTES: this scene is about vascular and pigmentation anomalies. reader has an unspecified color-contrast on the skin of their face, which they usually cover with cosmetics. for @chowdragun ♡

when you're questioning your path, when you're disappointed in yourself, when you're feeling lonely, try to remember: the captain is proud of you. and he hopes you're proud of yourself, too.

i got two requests under different names for this scene. it was a hard one, because everyone feels the need for this kind of reassurance, but in different ways. to the requester(s): i hope that you feel seen by this. i hope that it moves you and reminds you that you are amazing, not just in what you do, and not only in how hard you try - but also, simply, in who you are. and i hope it brings you some peace, and reassurance, and contentment. ♡♡♡

It’s early morning when Rocket finds you. You’re not always up at this hour, but you’ve got a lot to do today — and something had moved you to steal an extra hour of peace and quiet before the city starts its quiet morning hustle. So you’d made your favorite cozy-warm drink with the electric kettle on your tiny countertop, and you’d gone up to the roof — leaned out over the edge with your elbows propped against the low bone-concrete wall, and gazed down on the strings of twinkling plasma orbs, slowly fading like stars in the lavender-rose glow of the manufactured sunrise. The orloni peddler sets up their cart, and someone wanders down the street to the laundromat with a brimful basket propped on their hip. A lone, lazy Terran bull — liberated from the Arête, you assume — pulls a mouthful of grass from a crack in the walkway. But otherwise, the skull is still and tranquil, and everything seems oddly pastoral in the pearly light of artificial dawn. Even with Rocket scuffling around up here. He makes more noise than he needs to — more noise than he normally would, too: pushing open the door to the roof, and making sure to drag his boots on the gravelly surface. You appreciate the gesture, since it keeps you from startling when he finally swaggers to your side and hoists himself up on the ledge next to you. “Hey, kid.” “Hey,” you murmur back. Both of your voices are hushed, like the sleepiness of the world has stolen its way into your lungs, making everything soft and gauzy. “You heading out?” He drops into a seated position, legs dangling out over the street four stories down. Frankly, you’re surprised to see him this morning. Usually when he has to leave for a mission this early in the wake-shift, he heads straight from his apartment to the Bowie. “Yeah,” he grunts. “Just wanted to see how you were doin’ before I left.” Your mouth curves. You lift your mug to your lips and breathe in the steam, keeping your eyes carefully averted so he can’t see too much affection in them. “Checking up on me, Captain?”

need more reminders from rocket?

the world is hard, and sometimes it's difficult to complete daily tasks & take care of yourself (aka rocket bullies you for your own damn good).

feel free to ✩ request reminders ✩ via reblogs, asks, and tumblr or ao3 comments if they would be helpful for you. it may take me a hot minute to get to them depending on life n stuff, but i will do my best. ♡ view the take what you need queue to see upcoming installations & the current backlog.

this is about as wholesome as it gets (for me) i think. can be read platonically or romantically. mcu-based anthology, meant to take place post-volume-3, but headcanon however you want ♡

✩࿐࿔ slow down whenever you fuckin' can. [new 3/11/26]

✩࿐࿔ take what you need masterlist | twyn queue [HIATUS] fanfiction masterlist | navigation

fluff | gn reader | no use of y/n | anthology one-shot | ~ 2,142 words. read slow down whenever you fuckin' can on ao3 ✩࿐࿔ excerpt below the cut ~

the best advice for struggling with burnout is to get out of the thing causing the burnout. it's not a you-problem — it's a situation-problem.

however, we all know that's sometimes easier said than done. luckily, the captain is here to encourage you to take back time and energy however you can.

NOTES: this literally took me six months to write because ahhhh i've been burnt out lol. i TRULY hope you don't need it anymore, nonnie, but here it is. a little hard to write because so many different things could be the source of burnout and they all require a slightly different approach (trying to care for a familymember is different from trying to escape a toxic job while still paying bills, you know?) but i did my best and i hope you enjoy, and that you have people in your life who can help you find your resources and supports.

“—and I don’t like it.”

You slant your eyes toward the Captain. Your vision’s a little bleary around the edges, but you’re grateful to have found a single scant hour to hang out in Groot’s rooftop garden, drinking Milky Fizzes — some of them spiked — and soaking up the sound of laughter. Not that you have much to contribute, of course. Your brain’s still blurry from everything you’d been managing earlier. For now, you just try to enjoy the slow purpling of the light as Knowhere’s artificial sun begins to set and the conversation buzzes happily around you.

“I said,” the Captain grits out, “I don’t like it.”

babe. the captain's gonna be pissed if he finds out you're not using your day off to focus on things that will refresh you. so you'd better make a Serious Plan™ to do exactly that, or he'll do it for you. (bonus points if it involves a morning-task that requires you to go somewhere or meet somebody.)

✩࿐࿔ do your damn stretches. [new 6/3]

✩࿐࿔ take what you need masterlist | take what you need queue fanfiction masterlist | navigation

fluff | gn reader | no use of y/n | anthology one-shot | word count: 1,980. read ✩࿐࿔ do your damn stretches on ao3 excerpt & warnings below the cut.

the captain expects you to take care of your body, like a finicky firearm that needs a little extra daily maintenance. so add your stretches to your daily frickin' schedule and don't skip 'em, or he'll sic nebs on you.

The voice is far too concerned to be the Captain’s. That’s why you don’t clock it at first: too focused on bunching your muscles, then flexing them — trying to be subtle while you’re surrounded by the Knowhere nightlife. It seems like every other cycle brings some new neighborhood-festivities to the city of Exitar. Usually, these parties are pretty chill: laughing couplets and quintets, drifting in and out of the edges of the street and the open-front bars like starfish when the tides come in. Every night here feels like cool summer — at least when the climate control’s not on the fritz, or Rocket hasn’t turned it down for the Christmas party. The shadows are long and lean and purple, singed at the edges with the warm glow of countless tiny plasma-orbs, tinkling and jingling on their strings like little windchimes. Every breath tastes like spices from the orloni vendor’s stall, sweetened by the astringent fruity smash of spilled skullside moonshine, and cut through by the burnt-ozone and hot-metal scent of fireworks. Well, fewer fireworks and more gunfire, probably. But still, nights like this always call up the scent-memory of your first open-air concert on Terra, and how everything had smelled like summer nightskies and booze and pyrotechnics. Which is why you’re here, soaking up the atmosphere like you do every time there’s a celebration. You grin while you watch a few Star Kids bouncing through the streets, playing some sort of game that reminds you of hopscotch. Endless laughing clusters of adults ramble past, too: pausing to ask how you are, offering to bring you drinks. Normally, you’d be with them: weaving your way through the throngs of people garlanding the edges of the streets, bringing the Broker another cocktail because he’s just always adorably surprised whenever someone does something nice for him. Maybe trading playful insults with Howard, till he gets so flustered and annoyed that he quacks at you. But a lack of attention to your body the past few rotations has instead resulted in this: you, alone, perching on the sidelines — lounging on a bone-brick retaining wall while the rest of Exitar’s citizens swirl around you in little eddies and flows. It’s not so bad, you think as you try to surreptitiously flex and stretch your body, smiling and nodding when Steemie strolls by and grins a hello and a crinkle-eyed smile your way. You may not be enjoying your night the way you normally would, but you are still enjoying it. “Kid,” the voice says impatiently, which is when you realize it does belong to the Captain after all, and that he’s talking to you. “I asked you a frickin’ question.” You blink and half-twist so you can peer over your shoulder, surprised to find him close enough to touch, and almost at eye-level thanks to your seated position. “Oh, hi,” you greet, your smile curling your lips happily. It’s always nice to see him — even when he’s being an ass — but it’s especially good on nights like this, when he actually lets himself come down and join in the community that he’s worked so hard to create and protect. “What was the question?” He crosses his arms across the soft blue canvas of his shirt and squints one eye, raking it over you. “I asked if you’re okay.”

lots of us learn to be mean to ourselves as a form of self-protection. the captain understands this tendency — personallistically. which doesn't necessarily mean he likes when you do it.
