Drax: what does it even mean anyway? Is groot his name? His species? His mood?
Rocket, groaning: drax for the last time, go to sleep
-silence-
Peter: he’s got a point though
Rocket: we are /not/ doing this again, go to sleep you too
-silence again-
Gamora: but we never did ask him if-
Rocket: I am trying very hard to keep calm. You all will shut up about this. And we will get a full night’s sleep, ‘kay?
Peter: it’s… its kind of night all the time here in the middle of space so actually-
Rocket: I’m really trying not to shoot you, dude
-longer silence-
Groot: I am groot
If Thor understands Groot (the language) and calls Groot (the character) “Tree”, then, is “Tree” Groot’s real name?
