THE GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY AND THEIR LOVE LANGUAGES.

Forgive me for any mistakes of lore, names or character traits etc.. I am bad at remembering things.

Not proof read.

ALSO NOTE THAT THIS DOESN'T MEAN "THESE ARE THE ONLY LANGUAGES THAT WORK ON THEM" IT MEANS "THESE ARE THE ONES THAT WORK BEST OUT OF ALL OF THEM"

And theres things like least favorite, too.

--------------------------------------------------------

ROCKET RACCOON

RECEIVING -

(What is most effective towards him)

GIFT GIVING.

(Particularly prosthetic limbs)

QUALITY TIME.

Think like co-playing. Both in the same room doing different things. Sometimes talking

WORDS OF AFFIRMATION.

This one is probably pretty intense for him, so he only lets it actually sink in if it's a short sentiment from someone he truly cares about. Like, a friend being like "wow you're so cool!" Would definitely make him feel good, and probably inflate his ego/self esteem, but wouldn't really set in. But if like, Peter or Mantis etc. said something like "I appreciate everything you do for this team, we love you" that might actually hit hard. That's what I mean when I put words of affirmation here

---

GIVING

(What he would give you or others)

WORDS OF AFFIRMATION.

QUALITY TIME.

These two are his most standard forms of affection. He also gives them like he receives them. So, if someone he's friends with is a silent type, comfortable silence in the same room. If they're talkative, some light chatting is ok, and so on. Words of affirmation from him would most likely just be surface level stuff like "Good job" "You're not as dumb as I thought" "that's a neat trick" etc. sort of a friendly bullying. How people respond to that bullying tells him a lot about someone, usually. Just like with himself, if he's particularly close to someone, he may let out the occasional genuine praise without a layer of sarcasm.

LEAST FAVORITE

Physical touch.

Yeah, ouch, I know.

Not only is he smaller than everyone, which might make physical touch overwhelming, but he also has the situation on his back. But deep down, I think he's a bit touch starved (Everyone in the dang MCU is at this point) and secretly enjoys it. You just can't be heavy handed, and he really has to trust you. And too much too frequently may make him feel like a pet. So be careful.

(theres no way he would admit though, If asked about it he would simply say "Cause I don't want you gross sweaty skin bags all over me", referring to most peoples lack of fur)

-------------

PETER QUILL

(Theres like only 4 gifs of him. Why does my boy not deserve tasty gifs)

RECEIVING

-----------

With Peter it heavily depends on where you are in his timeline. The "golden age" Peter, where Gamora is alive and in love, and its good times for everyone, is probably not focused on relationships outside of the team (which might be part of his issues that were addressed in Vol 3.) The "everyone I love is dead" peter is in an extreme depressive state and obviously isn't going to be making new friends or even be responsive to his current friends (for the most part). The post Vol3 "Reconciled with my dad and stopped hopping on lily pads" Peter is new man! But also the same, being like a rebuilt version of himself. He would now, in my opinion, value every relationship he has. Every opportunity he has to be with other people becomes valuable, and everything he does is to honor the people who loved him when no one else did (Mama Quill, Yondu, Gamora etc.) and serve the people who love him now and kept loving him even through hard times. (Rocket, Mantis, Drax, Groot etc.).

With that said,

ACTS OF SERVICE

GIFT GIVING

I see Peter feeling loved more through actions and physical items because of what he's been through, making him crave things that are solid and real. Also Yondu was a lil trinket collector so that may turn up in Peter too. But, I also think Peter may feel a little guilty when receiving gifts. Very grateful, though.

I will also add

WORDS OF AFFIRMATION

QUALITY TIME

Because even despite what I just said, I think a solid "You're so strong, I look up to you" every now then would make him giggle and kick his feet a little internally.

And listening to music together or sharing music is also particularly special

At the end of the day, he's just happy to be around loved ones.

GIVING

Just as you may be doing right now, he would probably try and figure out what the specific person likes. So his giving just depends on the person.

LEAST FAVORITE.

He doesn't really have one. He just wants to be loved.

--------

DRAX

(The destroyer (and protector))

Drax is probably receptive to most forms of affection, but it has to be obvious and clearcut.

Like, doing subtle things in the background might not get his attention, but hugging him directly and saying something like "I appreciate you as a person and for everything you do for the team" would be a lot better, and mean a lot more to him, even though its a very bold/blunt move. Theres probably a balance between blunt and subtle, but it would be pretty easy to strike. You also don't want to leave room for interpretation if you're afraid of him misinterpreting the difference between platonic and romantic affection. Its a slippery slope, but as long as you avoid using the word 'love' without platonic clarification too many times, you'll be good.

Also Drax does does not make friends in the traditional sense, he simply decides who is and who is not his friend. Whether they know about it or not. Not even in a way thats like cold and calculated or something, he just thinks it in his own head and decides it, expecting the others to simply Know.

With that said,

RECEIVING

PHYSICAL TOUCH.

I say this is probably both receiving and giving, but he's probably less likely to give and more open to receive. I feel like he would just kinda stand there the first few times someone hugged him, but if it became a routine thing, he would become more reciprocal. That might sound like he doesn't like physical touch, but I think its rather the fact that along with his other social skills, physical affection just turns out.. different.. for him. Like when he pet Rocket. I think he's a physical person, it just comes out weird. I want to hug him. If you touch his muscles too much he may get weirded out, or think you like him.

GIVING GIFTS

If you give him something he likes, like zarg-nuts, oh boy. He will DEFINITELY like you. Thats all to be said.

GIVING

WORDS OF AFFIRMATION.

Things like "You're ugly, but thats good because then you know who really loves you", y'know.

GIFT GIVING

Will offer you zarg-nuts. Thats a big deal.

LEAST FAVORITE

Probably Quality Time, but only if its boring. I think he actually sees things like fighting alongside the team as quality time, so it might just be different than how we would interpret quality time.

Again, he probably is just generally receptive to each language so you can't really go wrong, as long as you come across right.

-------------------

GAMORA (pre and post)

(There's also not a lot of gifs of her at all)

So, much like quill, she has three versions. During Thanos, Golden Age, and Multiverse. I'll do Golden Age and Multiverse because I don't think During Thanos is interesting, at least not for this specific post.

Also golden age and multiverse are technically two different people.

GOLDEN AGE GAMORA

Golden age Gamora is, in my opinion, a very deeply feeling woman. She can be stone cold when she needs to, but I feel like she is very emotionally intelligent especially as she gets closer with the team. She is also very loving, and is often 'the rock' of a friendship. Or just generally the level headed, down to earth one.

-----------------------

RECEIVING

QUALITY TIME

Definitely finds spending time together and talking valuable. Even listening to music together is special.

WORDS OF AFFIRMATION

As long as the words are honest and not trying to just flatter her or try and get in good with her, she appreciates it. Honest praise goes a long way. Too much too often may make her embarrassed.

GIVING

Since she *is* rather emotionally intelligent, I imagine she would figure out what that person is most receptive to, and display that. But if it's someone she likes, like Peter, she may get bashful and have a hard time acting natural with it and would probably revert to her own preferred language.

LEAST FAVORITE

GIFT GIVING.

I imagine her upbringing caused her to not be a materialistic person. That said, gifts can be extremely special to her, but its just rare. So giving her flowers doesn't do anything but like if Peter gave her a mixtape, thats different.

////

MULTIVERSE GAMORA

A more hot headed, less sensitive version of golden age. Meaning she's probably more standoffish and less emotionally intelligent, but not by a lot, just sort of by the trimmings and details of her personality. Being with the ravagers probably does that to most anyone. Golden age has more motherly vibes, while multiverse has more protective older sister vibes.

--------

RECEIVING

PHYSICAL TOUCH.

In the form of rough housing and play fighting with her ravager friends. Not exactly in a tender way, although I do see sort of the "let me patch you up" angst. One of the differences between the two is that multiverse is more afraid to be vulnerable.

GIFT GIVING

Surprisingly. I think the ravager life style may make her a little more appreciative of having her own things. I imagine theres a lot of competitiveness for special food and special items, even if its playful. Even though something unnecessary like flowers may not excite her, things like a newer, stronger weapon could mean a lot. Golden Age may not feel the exact same only because it's probably more accessible. But lets say if its something Rocket made her, then it would be inherently valuable because its from her friend. With multiverse, things gain inherent value when they're useful.

LEAST FAVORITE

WORDS OF AFFIRMATION.

She doesn't need you to tell her she's doing a good job, she already knows. Compliments are only effective from people she respects above peer-level, which is rare. Joking around with her friends (loving insults, etc) is different though.

---------------------

GROOT (multiple ages)

(I couldn't find gifs of young adult groot, only many of baby groot and a few of groot senior. Sad)

Baby Groot, Teen Groot, Young Adult Groot, Adult Groot, Groot Senior. So many choices. I'll do them ALL. (Except adult groot cause we just saw him for a few minutes so like- yknow)

GROOT SENIOR

Since Groot sr. was treated "more as animal" than a person, I imagine he doesn't have a concept of love language at all. Therefor, I will say that anything he perceives as loving, caring and protective action is his love language both giving and receiving. R.I.P. legend you will not be forgotten 🪽🕊️🕊️ 🙏 💯

The original baby boy. I'm still sad.

-----

BABY GROOT

He's a baby, so in theme for babies, attention, physical affection, and quality time are pretty much his main priorities. He ain't got much going on. Older baby groot, like toddler groot, is more active and perceptive, so I'd say his main receiving language is words of affirmation, and his main giving language is acts of service.

TEEN GROOT

Teen groot is broody and angsty, and he's definitely not thinking about other's feelings. So I'm gonna say while it's rare, when he does show affection, it's act of service. Receiving is pretty much anything, he doesn't really care right now.

At least not about the specifics.

YOUNG ADULT GROOT

Now, groot is much more loving and affectionate. He is receptive to all love languages, and gives them all too. Except, theres not much use in words of affirmation for him unless he really loves the person.

-----

MANTIS

RECEIVING

Anything. As long as she can clearly tell it's love/affection, it's effective. Like Peter, she just wants to be loved.

GIVING

WORDS OF AFFIRMATION.

Being able to verbally explain how she feels to someone, and how she may appreciate that person, is the most confident option for her. She thinks that it's pretty effective, and is the safest option. She probably also never got a lot of affection at all before the Guardians, but I think she appreciates mental and social affection more than physical.

LEAST FAVORITE

Doesn't have one.

------------

NEBULA

(Last one I'm doing this post then I'll do a few more in a second post)

RECEIVING

QUALITY TIME.

Like board games and stuff, or at least thats what I think she wants, deep down. I feel like maybe she doesn't realize this is one of her love languages. Like it's subconscious.

GIFT GIVING.

With her upbringing, she only had things taken away. Giving her something of importance may mean a lot to her. Like her new arm in Vol3. Again since shes still a little emotionally constipated, she may not really realize this.

GIVING.

She doesn't really understand how to sort of actively pursue a friendship or how to read someones love language, so her giving language is probably just existing in the same space as someone without criticizing them. Because she doesn't quite know how to do more than that, or at least isn't comfortable right now. But she wants to and deep down she's trying.

------------

THANK YOU FOR READING!!!!!

I'll do like Adam Warlock and stuff next.

Um, kind of confused if your open for requests, cause it says your requests are closed in ur bio, but in ur master list, it says your open but only for TGOTG, so if ur requests are open for that, then may I request a (platonic) rocket and groot x teen!reader, (rocket and groot stumbled upon the reader (before meeting the others) when the reader was 15) alone and starve and rocket bregrungenrly decided to let the reader tag along with him and groot), where the reader gets really badly and rocket and groot are just panicking?

I apologize for any confusion! Yes, my requests are open for GOTG characters! On my end my bio and pinned post and all that says open but lmk if it still says closed and I’ll try to fix it! Anyways, hope you enjoy!

You’re beyond grateful to have Rocket and Groot, as strange as that may sound to anyone who hasn’t befriended the peculiar raccoon and tree. They found you when you were at your worst, no where to go and no one left to turn to. You surely would’ve died if they hadn’t found you and taken you in as part of their team.

Since then, you’ve tagged along to pretty much all of their endeavors—most of which are illegal—but you don’t mind.

This time around, you’re helping them steal a highly valued and highly secured artifact. None of you are exactly sure what it is, you just know it’s worth at least millions.

Rocket hacks into the building fairly easily as usual, but you’re met with way more security than you calculated for upon entering. There’s force fields everywhere, and you’re afraid a single wrong step will set off an alarm. Groot holds you back with a branch.

“Alright, here’s what we’re gonna do,” Rocket says. “I’ll go first, and I see if I can turn off the force fields,”

“Why can’t I go first?” you ask. You’ve been trying to get Rocket to give you more responsibility during heists, and he’s always so hesitant. Both of them are so protective of you it’s a little annoying.

“You can go second. How’s that for a compromise?” he runs forward and you groan.

He makes it through the maze of force fields no problem, and actually does find the off switch so you and Groot can get through.

Ahead, there’s a large safe. The three of you run up to it, but find that…

It’s empty.

The door is wide open and there’s nothing inside.

“I am Groot?”

“Of course we’re in the right place!”

You swear you see an unfamiliar shadow in your peripheral vision, and you look to the side and gasp. There’s another person there, and he’s holding what you’re here for.

You run after him, Rocket and Groot screaming after you as you go. You actually do recognize him now that you think of it, he’s on the wanted list just like Rocket and Groot. He must’ve had the same idea they did to steal this thing.

You chase him into a dead end, and you try to grab it from him. He dodges you, and before you process it, he pulls out a gun and shoots you.

You fall to the ground, shrieking in pain. The other criminal runs away, and you try to breathe. Blood starts soaking the side of your shirt, and you hear Rocket’s voice in the distance.

You must’ve briefly passed out, because when your eyes open again, Rocket and Groot are already at your side, loudly arguing.

“Holy shit,” Rocket panics. “Shit, shit, shit,”

“I am Groot!”

“We can’t bring them into a hospital! We’re all wanted criminals!”

“I am Groot?”

“We don’t have any Med Packs either!” Rocket meets your eyes as you slowly become conscious again. “How are you doing?”

“Not good,” you reply, wincing from the pain.

“I am Groot!!”

Rocket sighs, still shaking a bit from the shock, “Okay, you’re right, we’ll take them to the hospital. It’s not like we can’t break out of prison again.”

Gamora: What's wrong with you?

Nebula: Off the top of my head, I'd say low self-esteem, a lack of paternal affection, a genetic predisposition for depression, and a tendency to self-destruct.

Tony would be so devastated after Peter's death. Not only did he lost the person that he wanted to set an example for the most, to make him be proud of the role model he chose (and really, Tony asks himself, why would someone choose HIM for a role model?) He also lost a person who motivated him to be a better human being. And we all know he blames himself so fucking much for it. If Tony wouldn't have got close to Peter, hell, if he never would have gotten involved in the kid's life, none of this would've happened. Except it would.

Peter would've died regardless, dying with other millions of people. It still doesn't make it easier. He should help the others find a solution. He drowns in alchohol instead. He reunites with the avengers...or, the ones left. Just the people they have left. They're trying to find a solution. He doesn't give a damn anymore. Peter Parker died. Why would he?

I want to see him crushed and vulnrable. So crushed that all he can do is lay on the ground with a bottle of whiskey next to him and cry. Just because I want fans to see just how much Tony cared about Spidey and how big of an impact Peter had in his life.

Steve tries to comfort him, but Tony can see how emotionally drained he is. Bucky's death got to him. Bad. He pushes Steve away. The guy has enough on his plate. And even if they're not on speaking terms, he doesn't want to put a burden on the guy more than he already has. He ignores the sad puppy look Steve sents his way. The " I'm hurt and I want to be held. I don't want to be alone." Look. He feels sorry, but he can't take care of others. Not right now.

Rhodey watches him with a look Tony knows too well. It's the "I wish I could comfort you. But I know you want to be alone, so I'll try to give you space. Doesn't mean I like it." look.

T'Challa's sister is in here, too. Bright, and brilliant and a sad mess. But not sad like him. Her sadness is controlled. She comes up to him and snatches the whiskey bottle right from under his mouth and takes a mouth full. She chokes on it, too. Tony wasn't supposed to care. But he does.

"Gimme that, kid." He'd say when he finally can stand. The raccoon helps him up, thought. A talking raccoon. Well. He'd seen weirder things. And reaches for the bottle. The girl moves away from him, watching him with something he doesn't want to see. Not right now.

Compassion.

"Shuri. Give it." He knows her name. He tries again, but all she does is walk away to a table where robotic materials are splattered around. She takes another sip. Tony can see she's not used to this. Not by the expressions she's making, like she wants to spit it out and never be near it again. "Just stop. You can't even keep a straight face, just give me back the bottle."

"I'll stop if you stop." Silence.

For the first time in his life, Tony doesn't know what to say. He stares at her. She stares at him. They have a contest, these two. Wide brown eyes, trying to see what the other person is thinking.

Why does she care?

Why doesn't he care?

" I understand what it means to lose someone you love," she starts, with a crack in her tone, finally putting the bottle down and approching him with shaky steps. She can barely contain herself. But she's doing a better job than him. " I've lost my brother before all of this. But he came back to me. Your son can come back to you, too. But we have to find a solution first. And this? You and me, drinking away our pain? Won't help anyone."

Son.

He can feel his heart drop and sweat pooling on his back. " He-- He, uh...," son? Peter wasn't his son. " He, Spidey-- Peter, he...he wasn't... He wasn't my..." Son.

Why can't he bring himself to say it? It's not like it's a lie. So then, why does he feel wet strings falling on his cheeks? Say it Tony's brain tells him say he wasn't your son. Would you lie?

"I...I lost my son." Why did you say that, you fuck up? He wasn't your son. If he was, the kid would be dead before he even had the chance of putting on his costume. He was just a kid who venerated you, put you on a pedestal. That's all he was.

Shuri's expression is as soft as a feather when she hugs him tightly. "And we'll get him back. We'll get everyone back. I promise you."

The raccoon pets him on the shoulder and stares at the floor.

"I lost a son, too." He says. " I know how it feels, dude."

Tony cries. He cries a lot. He's pretty sure no one saw him cry this hard. Not even Rhodey. But it doesn't last for long. He's Tony Stark. He can't afford to let feelings get in the way of progress and solution.

He walks over to the table and picks up the whiskey bottle. Then smashes it on the floor, and says:

"Let's get our family back."
