IT'S A CIIIIRLE OF LIIIFE!!!!

[holdmytesseract]

The lights in the living room are dampened; a lot of candles burning instead.

*'Circle Of Life' starts to play*

Loki: *steps into the room; only wearing a loincloth*

Loki: *gently lifts Narfi - who is also wearing just a loincloth and nappy - out of his crib*

Loki: *lays Narfi on the edge of the sofa and marks his forehead with the help of his seidr - like in the movie*

Loki: *holding baby Narfi with his palms wrapped safely around his small upper body up high in the air above his head - in time with the music*

*Suddenly, the music stops*

Y/N, entering the living room with a flashlight: Loki? *looks him up and down, then gazes confused from him to Narfi and back* What... are you doing?

Loki: What does it look like, my love? I am entertaining our daughter. *gestures to Ella, who sits criss-crossed on the sofa; trying to suppress her giggles*

Y/N: *blinks* With our newborn son?

Loki: *shrugs shoulders* I do not have another choice, darling. Stark is too slow to remedy the failure of his brilliant electricity system - and we wish to watch 'The Lion King'. So, I had to come up with a solution myself.

Y/N: *still blinking and now also frowning* Yes, I know that, but... Babe... Have you forgotten that you're a god and possess a gift called 'magic'?

Loki: *shakes head* No, I do not have forgotten about that, but this is the more entertaining and funnier way, right, princess?

Ella: Absolutely, daddy. *smiles*

Loki: *smirks* See, love? *turns to Ella* Princess, hit the music.

Ella: *presses a button on the little remote control in her hand*

*'Circle of Life' continues to play*

Loki: *resumes his role as Rafiki*

Y/N: *just standing there and shaking her head, but smiling brightly*

a/n: Here it is! The first Loki blurb/incorrect quote! And of course, it's for the Baby Fever AU, hehe. I hope you enjoy and love this as much as I do! 🥰

TLK: Kings and Successions Gen 2

Romulus's expectactions as a King were big, specially of whom was going to inherit the throne. When his firstborn was a female cub, he knew the other animals would complain but he didn't care: his daughter, Prima, would be the first Queen of The Pridelands.

Choosing a Lion Guard leader became difficult because Romulus had two more girls and none of them wanted to fight and risk their lives, not after hearing the stories about the Evil Lions or how their uncle lost his sight. Seeing that, Romulus was determined to have a son and he did! Abilio then became the fiercest.

This period of The Pridelands was mostly calm except for a tiny incident that never left the walls of the royal den. Chekesha, the bravest, was also the flirtiest lion in all the territory. Romulus knew about it. So when he noticed that the young lion was trying to court his precious daughter Prima and she was reciproating (even though she has her own betrothal), Romulus knew he had to do something. And so, days later, Romulus' announced that Chekesha was going to be betrothed to one of Prima's sisters.

Prima was heartbroken after hearing the news and with tears in her eyes, she accepted the betrothal that was impossed of her. Romulus felt guilty but it was for the best for Kingdom... and for his daughter's future.

Update because i was curious to keep count:

Superman: Infant alien, Clark/Kal El, adopted by human parents, the Kents.

Adventure Time. Baby Finn The Human adopted by shapeshifter Jake The Dog and unnamed partner. Hinted to be an unreliable flashback?

Kung Fu Panda: Po the Panda adopted by his father, the goose who's name I can't recall if it is mentioned at all.

The Wild Robot: I've only seen previews and short clips, but I gather the goose imprinted on the robot as a hatchling

The Lion King: lion cub, Simba, chased from his pride and adopted by meerkat Timon and warthog Puumba.

Leafie: A Hen Into the Wild: never heard of it before seeing this poster

Hellboy: human scientist(? Secret agent? ) adopts what everyone assumes to be a demon, but I'm unclear if that is actually the case or not.

The Amazing World of Gumball: i don't know what anyone's deal is in this show, but the orange fish is an adopted little brother.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: a wise old rat adopts for baby Turtles before or after being mutated depending on the series.

Puss In Boots: The Last Wish: Goldie(locks) and the Three Bears, of fairy tail fame.

Dragonball: infant alien, Goku/Kakarot adopted by human parent "Grandpa Gohan" (this sounds familiar....)

Tarzan: human infant adopted by Gorilla mother

The Jungle Book: human infant Mogli adopted by wolf pack and later by a panther and a bear (and later a human village)

Mr Peabody & Sherman: was the adoption a thing in the comics and shorts, or added for the film? Idk...

Princess Mononoke: Don't remember specifics, but murder was s fun mother/daughter activity to watch

Undertale: human Chara adopted by the monster royal family

The Owl House: human Luz adopted (as an apprentice? ) by witch The Owl Lady, Eda Clawthorne. King, the baby Titan is undeniably Eda's adopted son.

Also The Owl House: Vee, the shapeshifter, is adopted by human Camila Noceda, who is coincidentally Luz's bio mom.

Amphibia: the human girl is adopted by the frog family, but I can't remember anyone's names.

Cat and bird: don't recognize this at all

Helluva Boss: didn't know Luna was adopted. Not sure what to feel about the implications here...

Fox(?) And dragon: no idea

Bat (?) And human child: no idea

Monster and human child: no idea

Guardians of the Galaxy: alien Yondu kidnaps and late adopts human Peter Quill

No idea what this one is. Is that Samus Aran as a child and a Chozo?

No idea what this image is.

Dinosaur: dinosaur egg adopted by a family of lemurs

Star Trek: i recognize the uniforms but not the characters

I watched the "hyper realistic" version of "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" on Youtube and I was not ready for the utter lack of emotions from the CGI animals.

Nala looking concerned about Simba hiding something about his past, a comparison:

Also, in the CGI version this song called "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" does not take place at night.

My baby boy Simba deserves world especially after everything he been through and he also deserves better treatment from tlk/tlg fandom and Disney itself🥲

I wanna rant about the live-action lion king vs the animated lion king.

I don't like how they made scar. For me as a kid one of the scariest things about scar was that he would hold simba. In every scene we see scar and simba in together, scar is always reaching out to hold him close or act like a caring uncle.

We know that scar has bad intentions but it makes sense that simba wouldn't see those bad intentions because scar always reaches out for him, holds him close, smiles at him, claims he only wants the best for simba, andalways comes off as a strange yet caring affectionate uncle, who's protective.

we know simba truly does love his uncle, we can see in his scenes with scar that he trusts scar and is affectionate with him.

Scar plays the part of a eccentric, playful and affectionate uncle so well, so when he tells the hyenas

" kill him"

right after pulling simba in and holding his grieving nephew, it made my lil jaw drop. I was SHOCKED because I thought as a kid that he has a shred of love for simba and didn't really wanna kill him.

No, scar was just super manipulative.

it was all just manipulation. That's what made scar scary for me as a kid because he pretended he loved simba so effortlessly.

Scar always reached out for simba first, that stayed in my mind for years.

In the live action lion king, scar doesn't feel do any of that. I don't think he ever even touches simba other then in like 2 scenes...

It really bothered me that they took those scenes out, I felt like those scenes showed how truly manipulative, cunning and apathetic that scar truly was.

Oh yes, the past can hurt. But you can either run from it, or learn from it.
