Mane stubborn lion. Har har.

[filled_with_pride]

Why are you questioning me? I did what I thought was best at the time. No one can expect better of a King.

[Simba might be pacing.]

Father... [This is a painful subject.] He would have understood that. He knew the pressures of standing alone. I have to be strong. I won't let what happened to him happen to me. I won't let Kiara grow up without a father.

[Though she is a good deal older than you were, Simba.]

It doesn't matter. It's too big of a risk. I'll make her see that.

I don't remember seeing you at all.

[His expression hardens.]

One of the lions who followed Scar. I banished them from the Pridelands.

[heartisabattleground]

You don't?

[Sigh, all disney friends just don't know him. He's gotten used to the fact that his friends come from a whole other universe now.]

Oh, I see...well you trust your daughter right, Simba?

[filled_with_pride]

Should I?

[Sorry, Simba is a little grumpy at the world in general, Sora.]

Not in this case.

[heartisabattleground]

I guess not...well I'm Sora.

[It's okay, just don't expect Sora to put up with it too much longer.]

Why not? Maybe this one Outsider guy isn't all that bad.

[filled_with_pride]

Where are you from, Sora?

[He snorts.]

He betrayed me! He nearly got me killed! He deserved to be exiled.

[heartisabattleground]

I'm from an Island.

[Oh...okay, Sora's not sure how to feel about this. But he doesn't seem happy about it either.]

Are you all right?

[filled_with_pride]

An island? [Sorry, don't have those in Africa.]

I'm healing. [His voice is gruff.] I gave him a chance and that's how he repaid me.
