pin the moniker on the rocket!

How about something a bit more lighthearted than that last post?
I'm still going to be referencing "Avengers: Endgame", but I'll be doing so in the same vein as I mined for "Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2".
Remember that little game I played?
No, not the one with the songs.
Nope, not that one with the naked male chests, either, which wasn't a game anyway.
(smile!)
I'm talking about this one, involving that adorable, bewhiskered, gun-toting wonder.
Yes, indeed, the magnificent Rocket, who gets misidentified repeatedly yet again.
(smile)

So, as I did before, I'll first list the names he was called, then the ones who called them.
Your mission, my dear, is to match the correct ones to each other.
Ready?
Let's play!

Here are the monikers bestowed upon him:

a) raccoon

b) rabbit

c) Build-A-Bear

d) fur-face

e) Ratchet


Now, the list of folks who used those names:

1) Captain Marvel

2) Natasha Romanova

3) Clint Barton

4) Tony Stark

5) Steve Rogers

6) Queen's Guards

7) Bruce Banner

Yes, of course there are more than needed in the 'people' list!
That's to keep it interesting, of course!

Okay, don't look here unless your choices are set!

Woohoo! Let's do this!

First off, Bruce Banner, Clint Barton, and Steve Rogers never referred to Rocket by any nickname or animal title.
So, those folks are out of the running.

Starting in chronological order, we have Tony Stark, freshly rescued from space and mad at the world. When Rocket makes a comment, Tony responds with "I thought it was a Build-A-Bear until it spoke."
So, that's a big ol' 4) with that little c).

Next to occur, we have Captain Marvel responding to an unkind comment from Rocket about her ever-shorter hair cut. She takes aim - only verbally - at the bushy growth on his head, naturally.
That makes it a 1) to the d)!

Third up, we have Natasha talking to Clint about how life has changed, such that she is now getting information from "a raccoon". Apparently, she meant Rocket, right?
Her comment makes that 2) and the a).

Then a bit of time elapses before Rocket and Tony Stark have another barely tolerable encounter. They're in the Avengers stronghold and Tony deliberately calls him Ratchet.
So, that's another big ol' 4), but with the e).

Not much longer, Rocket and Thor are on a stone-finding mission. Rocket goes off on his own and the next thing you know, he's being chased down a hall, with cries of "Get the rabbit!" trailing down behind him!
That finishes the game with a 6) of a b)!

Thanks for playing along!
I needed something to brighten the merry month of May!
