He’s— still not super sure about his place in all this, if he’s honest. Rocket and Gamora (and Drax, when Groot allowed it) had a much better handle on the whole parenting thing. Had more attention and patience for it than Peter did, who was happy to leave them to it. That wasn’t really fair, he knows, though he offered his help in the more fun stuff, in letting Groot listen to his music and dancing along with him.
He kept his distance, a lot of the time, because he didn’t know the first thing about kids or the first thing about, like, being a proper role model. He didn’t like the pressure of that responsibility.
But at length, he steps forward, resting a hand against Groot’s back, wrapping his arm around Gamora’s waist. ]
