As a Disney Princess, Shuri could use a wisecracking animal sidekick, and I hereby nominate Rocket! He might be into it—I think these two will become friends over their shared love of inventing stuff. Also in this comic, Shuri is asking some of the many questions I have about aliens in the MCU. (Seriously, I would 100% watch a movie that’s just Shuri doing science and hanging out with the GotG.)
I’m reblogging this because Shuri is the best and we get to see all these characters in Infinity War in just a few days!!! (Also, I firmly believe that Rocket is the sort of person who tries to mess with his friends the second he feels the least bit comfortable around them. Here though, Shuri and Mantis don’t fall for it.)
