''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/20714480/chapters/49208921 I Have No Son-in-Law!]]'' is a ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'' fanfiction by [=BornAgainKishin=]. It takes place shortly after ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLifeStaticCling''.
Rocko and Rachel have been secretly dating each other for the past two years. Nervously (and with some typical inconveniences), Rocko proposes to Rachel, but the lovely engagement is soured by the fact he has to tell her ''parents'' about their relationship. While Bev Bighead is thrilled, Ed Bighead considers the ordeal a literal nightmare. If Rocko wants to make his future wife happy and avoid breaking up a family, he'll have to get in good with his future father-in-law.
----
!!Tropes in the fanfiction include:
* AllJustADream: Subverted. The first chapter, where Rocko and Rachel get engaged, ends with Mr. Bighead waking up after a disturbing dream he had. While he ''is'' having bad dreams about his daughter marrying Rocko, the engagement ''did'' happen.
* DatingWhatDaddyHates: Rachel dates and becomes engaged to Rocko, the neighbor her father hates more than anybody on Earth.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Rocko delivers a biting rant towards Cliff for harassing Rachel. It sends the donky away literally crying uncle.
-->“[L]et me make one thing straight: I have ''no'' idea who you are. I’ve never ''heard'' of you until tonight. But you were a nuisance to the guests, a pest to me, and you harassed Rachel! I don’t give a flying damn ''who'' you are, ''who'' your uncle is, or ''what'' kind of clout you have, and I still don't understand what clout is! In the eyes of myself and everyone else at this party – which you weren’t even invited to – you are the lowest, filthiest, and the most CLASSIC definition of a ''SELF''-serving, ''SELF''-absorbed, ''SELF-RIGHTEOUS '''ASS'''''!”
* StrawMisogynist: Cliff Pundance. According to Rachel, he thinks that women aren't good artists and that abrasive men like him are the only ''true'' artists. When he starts talking to her, he condescends her, cracks sexist jokes, and invades her personal space. Luckily, he is swiftly humiliated (and stabbed in the hand).
* ThatCameOutWrong: To help Rocko befriend Mr. Bighead, Heffer decides to look up some ways for men to bond. What does he type into his search bar? "Male bondage activities." Needless to say, the results are a bit disturbing. Even worse, he keeps shouting "Woo! Male bondage!"
* TitleDrop: Every chapter is titled after a line of dialogue from the fic. For example, Chapter 1's title "A Very Sweaty Wallaby" appears in the chapter when Rocko looks at himself in the mirror, Filbert asks him, “Rocko. What do you see in there?” and Rocko replies, “A very sweaty wallaby?”
* TrueArtIsIncomprehensible: Rachel's film is just a loop of a Mr. Fathead popsicle melting on the sidewalk, set to loud polka music. Nobody gets it until Rocko stirs the audience into applauding her.
* VisualPun: Cliff Pundance is a very rude donkey, so he's an ass figuratively and literally.
* WholeEpisodeFlashback: Chapter 3, "A Very Dangerous Night," is dedicated to the night Rocko and Rachel started dating.
