’ What do you want me to do, dress in drag and do the hula? ’ ’ I despise guessing games. ’ ’ Oh, goody. ’ ’ Yes. Well, forgive me for not leaping for joy. ’ ’ When I’m King, what’ll that make you? ’ ’ You’re so weird. ’ ’ You have no idea. ’ ’ Sing something with a little bounce in it. ’ ’ I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts. ’ ’ Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head… ’ ’ Hakuna Matata. It’s our motto. ’ ’ What’s a motto? ’ ’ Nothing. What’s a motto with you? ’ ’ Did I miss something? ’ ’ Let me out! Let me out! ’ ’ Please don’t eat me. ’ ’ Whoa. Talk about your fixer-upper. ’ ’ I can’t go back. What would it prove, anyway?  ’ ’ You can’t change the past. ’ ’ You said you’d always be there for me! But you’re not. ’ ’ It’s because of me. It’s my fault. ’ ’ Ahh, so you haven’t told them your little secret. ’ ’ It’s not true. Tell me it’s not true. ’ ’ No! It was an accident! ’ ’ It’s your fault he’s/she’s dead. Do you deny it? ’ ’ Then you’re guilty. ’ ’ No, I’m not a murderer! ’ ’ Friends? I thought he/she said we were the enemy. ’ ’ Don’t ever do that again! Carnivores, ugh! ’ ’ We’re pals, right? ’ ’ I don’t wonder; I know. ’ ’ The great kings of the past look down on us from those stars. ’ ’ I always thought they were balls of gas burning billions of miles away. ’ ’ Fireflies that, uh… got stuck up on that big bluish-black thing. ’ ’ Everything the light touches is our kingdom. ’ ’ A king’s time as ruler rises and falls like the sun. ’ ’ What’s happened to you? ’ ’ You’re right, I’m not. Now are you satisfied? ’ ’ You know you’re starting to sound like my father. ’ ’ The sooner we get to the waterhole, the sooner we can leave. ’ ’ So where are we really going? ’ ’ Right. So how are we going to ditch the dodo? ’ ’ It’s a tradition going back generations. ’ ’ Well, when I’m king, that’ll be the first thing to go. ’ ’ Well, in that case, you’re fired. ’ ’ Nice try, but only the king can do that. ’ ’ Your Majesty. I gravel at your feet. ’ ’ Why do I always have to save your… Ahhh! ’ ’ I know what I have to do. ’ ’ Temper, temper. ’ ’ I’ve been running from it for so long. ’ ’ Ow! Jeez, what was that for? ’ ’ It doesn’t matter. It’s in the past. ’ ’ Oh yes, the past can hurt. ’ ’ But from the way I see it, you can either run from it, or… learn from it. ’ ’ You see? So what are you going to do? ’ ’ First, I’m gonna take your stick. ’ ’ Good! Go on! Get out of here! ’ ’ So you’d better have a good excuse for missing the ceremony this morning. ’ ’ Perhaps you shouldn’t turn your back on me. ’ ’ I wouldn’t dream of challenging you. ’ ’ Is that a challenge? ’ ’ I’m afraid I’m at the shallow end of the gene pool. ’ ’ There’s one in every family sire. Two in mine, actually. ’ ’ Pinned you again. ’ ’ What’s going on? ’ ’ Oh, dear, I’ve said too much! ’ ’ Well, I’m brave. What’s out there? ’ ’ All the more reason for me to be protective. ’ ’ Well, I suppose you’d have found out sooner or later. ’ ’ Just promise me you’ll never visit that dreadful place! ’ ’ You run along now and have fun. ’ ’ I wonder if its brains are still in there? ’ ’ Danger? Hah! I walk on the wild side. I laugh in the face of danger. Ha ha ha ha! ’ ’ Do you know what we do to kings who step out of their kingdom? ’ ’ Puh. You can’t do anything to me. ’ ’ Oh, my, my, my. Look at the sun. It’s time to go! ’ ’ Hey! Why don’t you pick on somebody your own size? ’ ’ I’m very disappointed in you. ’ ’ You could have been killed! ’ ’ You deliberately disobeyed me! ’ ’ I was just trying to be brave like you. ’ ’ I’m only brave when I have to be. ’ ’ Being brave doesn’t mean you go looking for trouble. ’ ’ Whoah. I guess even kings get scared, huh? ’ ’ But you’re not scared of anything. ’ ’ We were afraid it was somebody important. ’ ’ Tell me about it. I just hear that name and I shudder. ’ ’ Yeah, be prepared! We’ll be prepared… for what? ’ ’ Long live the king! Long live the king! ’ ’ If I told you, it wouldn’t be a surprise, now would it? ’ ’ If you tell me, I’ll still act surprised. ’ ’ You are such a naughty boy/girl! ’ ’ You hear that? If you ever come back, we’ll kill ya! ’ ’ So it is with a heavy heart that I assume the throne. ’ ’ That’s the stupidest thing I ever heard. ’ ’ You know, having a lion around might not be such a bad idea. ’ ’ Ah, you’re an outcast! That’s great. So are we. ’ ’ I’m telling you, kid: this is the great life. No rules, no responsibilities… ’ ’ You mean a bunch of royal dead guys are watching us? ’ ’ Come on, I just heard about this great place. ’ ’ I’m surrounded by idiots. ’ ’ I’m kinda in the middle of a bath. ’ ’ So where are we going? It better not be anyplace dumb. ’ ’ I’ll show you when we get there. ’ ’ The waterhole? What’s so great about the waterhole? ’ ’ You’re the king? And you never told us? ’ ’ You don’t even know what I’ve been through! ’ ’ I finally got some sense knocked into me. ’ ’ Please have mercy, I beg you. ’ ’ You don’t deserve to live. ’ ’ Why should I believe you? Everything you ever told me was a lie. ’ ’ This looks like a good spot to rustle up some grub. ’ ’ I’ll make it up to you, I promise. ’ ’ You got to put your past behind you. ’ ’ When the world turns its back on you, you turn your back on the world. ’ ’ Bad things happen, and you can’t do anything about it. ’ ’ There’s more to being a king than getting your way all the time. ’ ’ I’m so hungry I could eat a whole zebra. ’ ’ Listen kid: if you live with us, you’re gonna have to eat like us. ’ ’ Come on, will you cut it out? ’ ’ I thought I knew, but now I’m not so sure. ’ ’ What’s that supposed to mean, anyway? ’ ’ I’m not the one who’s confused. ’ ’ You don’t even know who you are! ’ ’ This is just the way your father looked before he died. ’ ’ So what’s the plan for getting past those guys? ’ ’ No wonder we’re dangling at the bottom of the food chain! ’ ’ Where is your hunting party? They’re not doing their job. ’ ’ Then you have sentenced us to death! ’ ’ Well, it sure is a surprise to see you… ’ ’ Hakuna Matata. It means “no worries”. ’ ’ These are rare delicacies. ’ ’ You have forgotten who you are and so have forgotten me. ’ ’ You are more than what you have become. ’ ’ How can I go back? I’m not who I used to be. ’ ’ Will you stop following me? Who are you? ’ ’ What’s going on here? Who’s the monkey? ’

“You’re too hard on yourself. You always have been.”

“Let me give you some advice: never forget what you are. The rest of the world will not.”

“At times you make me wonder whose side you’re on.”

“They didn’t deserve to die like that; nobody deserves to die like that.”

“I did warn you not to trust me.”

“You’ve never asked about her, not once. Why now?”

“I’ve made many mistakes in my life, but THAT wasn’t one of them.”

“I don’t know what you want. I’ve given up trying to guess.”

“Oh, I’m very sorry. I don’t know anything about all that.”

“Are you gonna say something clever? Go on! Say something clever.”

“I shall wear this bruise like a badge of honor.”

“I’m not particularly good at violence, but I’m good at convincing others to do violence for me.”

“But you understand why I had to kill him.”

“I still can’t believe you’re going. It’s ridiculous, even for you.”

“You’re afraid of heights and almost everything else, probably. What are you doing here?”

“Why have I not seen you? Where the hell have you been?”

“I must say, I received a slightly warmer welcome on my last visit.”

“Pity, what happened to him- just when his life seemed to be going so nicely.”

“But, enough about me- how have you been since we last saw each other?”

“You will dishonor yourself forever if you do this.”

“Out! Out, damn you! I’m done with you!”

“I think you are mistaking business with pleasure.”

“The next time you raise a hand to me will be the last time you have hands!”

“Is this some kind of trick? Why do you want to help him?”

“Distrusting me was the wisest thing you’ve done.”

 Man had returned to the jungle.

 Sabor watched from the trees as the little steamboat chugged over the waves, as the men spilled out onto the sand, carrying strange items and shouting unknown words at each other. She watched them hack and slash their way through her forest, clearing trees to make their den. She watched the big man who was clearly their alpha roaring orders, never parting with his stick-that-brought-thunder. That she knew.

 She could still remember the last time humans came to the jungle. They had done much the same: cut down trees and drove away her prey, and had built that enormous den of theirs on the tree by the ocean. The leopard had killed them just the same. The male had put up a fight, and had brandished the same thunder-stick that this new hunter had. Not knowing what it was, she had charged him full on. He took aim: and missed. The man barely had time to register that fact before he was on the floor, her claws in his chest, her teeth in his throat.

 The mother had put up a valiant fight as well, brandishing a broken piece of wood like a spear as she stood over her baby. Sabor had broken that with a swipe of her paw, and brought the woman down just as easily. She had wanted to make a similar end of the infant, and wipe the plight of their kind from the jungle once and for all, but the she-ape had intervened, only just escaping Sabor’s clutches by the whims of a human trap.

 That had been many years ago. She would not make the same mistake again.

“I am Sarabi, Queen of the Pridelands. What brings you here?”

Tarzan had wanted to be brave and stand up to the lioness the way Kerchak would have, he didn’t want her to see him as weak like a prey item, but something about her warm smile and comforting tone made him think of his mother, and before he knew it Tarzan was opening his heart to her.

 “I...We...we were crossing the log bridge, and it was raining and slippery and and...I couldn’t climb onto it, and I couldn’t hold on the way the others could. I was w-walking at the back and t-then the bridge started to break and and I couldn’t run as fast as the others could and I couldn’t reach my m...She tried to pull me up but I couldn’t...Then the fell down into the water and I-I-”

 He wiped away the rapidly forming tears in with the back of his arm, then without thinking about it, grabbed hold of Sarabi’s leg and buried his face in her warm fur. She might eat him for crying on her, he thought, but the family was better off without him anyway.

 Malkia watched with pride as the young lion ascended the spire of Pride Rock and roared out to his new subjects. She lifted her trunk and added her voice to the other roars, trumpets, brays, squawks, howls, and shouts of joy from the gathered mass of animals. The King and Queen’s death had weighed heavily on the whole Kingdom, none more so than her, who had been the couple’s oldest friend, so it was good to lift that weight off of the animals, and find something to celebrate. Nothing was more worthy of that than Mufasa’s coronation. 

 Their sons had borne the worst of the grief though: Mufasa had been very open about it, finding comfort in Sarabi and even Zazu, but ‘Scar’ had taken the deaths of his parents badly, and had shut himself away in his cave for days, refusing to speak to anyone. From the looks of things, he hadn’t even came to his brother’s ceremony.

 The elephant stood near the cave once the ceremony was done and several of Mufasa’s personal friends came to congratulate him. She let herself drop a few tears in remembrance while she let the boy have his moments with Zazu, Sarabi, the lionesses, his other young cubhood friends, and Rafiki. Before the procession of herd leaders and figureheads could come forward, Malkia approached the boy she had taught and cared for all his life with a sad smile, though one that was filled with pride. The giant went to her knees before the King.

 “Your majesty.”

//Did pretty much a full drafts purge of anything before my break. There was some good stuff in there I still wanted to get around too but I was never going to.

So consider this a fresh starter call for all characters! If you have a plot that got dropped that you still want to do just let me know and we can probably pick it back up again!

‘ what’s all the fuss about? ’

“Sorry about them,” Tarzan laughed, watching Terk, Flynt, and Mungo run off screaming into the bushes at the sudden appearance of the big cat. 

 He had met the leopard when they were both young, so he had nothing to fear from this particular individual, though Tarzan had thought it best to keep his friend a secret from his family.

 He grabbed a low branch and swung up to the ledge where Bahati stood, landing on his knuckles at her left side. He reached out with his left foot and gave her shoulder a gentle friendly shove.

 “They’re not used to leopards. We should go though, before they bring Kerchak here.”
