[At some point (and the fact that Rocket doesn't know exactly when tells you exactly what kind of person he is), Mantis and her stuff just quietly left the house. Given she doesn't possess that much stuff, it was fairly easy to brush off as late nights working or something equally normal.
But it's been a few days, and Quill's bound to notice soon, so Rocket takes matters into his own hands through sheer paranoia and a desire to not be the last person who realized Mantis is missing and getting chastised for it.
He figures the first place to stop is the clinic, since they would have seen her last, so he bursts in, looking to start interrogating when he
sees
Mantis.
Just right there, helping people. Like she do.] ...Mantis?
[Is she a clone. Is this another bug lady? What the fuck, Mantis???]
