Now...I'm not really surprised to find that I've even gotten the lion's share of the brains in this little relationship.

What do you expect to accomplish?

Don't you think you have enough going on already? Is it really wise to add me to the mix? I am rather high maintenance, what with being king and all.

[Character from THE LION KING? REALLY?! This world was far too strange. Still, when else do you get the chance to tell cartoon villains how dumb they are?]

This coming from the lion that killed his brother for his kingdom only to ruin it.

[matterofpride]

[Flatly.] The hyenas had a big part in ruining things.

[That's his story and he's sticking to it. Can we say denial?]

[tinfoil_angel]

Lies work very poorly when I can read minds.

[matterofpride]

Oh, bother... [He huffs and flops onto the ground.]

What ever shall I do now?

[tinfoil_angel]

Realize the fact you are now surrounded by a bunch of beings likely more powerful than yourself that hate your very being?

[matterofpride]

I quiver with fear. [The final word trailing off in a bit of a growl.]

I'm sure not everyone hates me.

[tinfoil_angel]

More or less everyone. Really those that don't hate you and know how you did things probably thinks you're an idiot or at best a poor lead.

[He smirks a little.]

But that's not the problem scar. The problem is you only need one person to hate you enough.

[His eyes began to glow purple.]

So now your problem; give me one good reason why I should let someone like you live.

[matterofpride]

Oh of course, exactly what I need. Someone threatening my life.

Why do you think I went through all the trouble to plan Mufasa's death? I'm not really much of a fighter...I have a back condition, you see.

[He sighs]

Why shouldn't I just serve you to the hyenas for a snack?

Sorry he's being very threatening but Scar DOES deserve it.

[tinfoil_angel]

[Rather suddenly scar would hear the crackle of the ground breaking beside him before a crater appeared. It look like an elephant decided to canonball off a skyscraper had landed there.]

Because the next time that won't be the ground that breaks.

[matterofpride]

Oh if only I knew how to impliment this idea I now have in my brain.

[tinfoil_angel]

I'm waiting.

[matterofpride]

I have a wonderful personality?

:33 < a lion... king?
:33 < *ac purrches nearby to get a good look*
:33 < *she thinks that sounds really really cool!!*
:33 < does that make you a lusus or something?
:33 < *but you dont have two mouths so he cant be as cool as my lusus she mutters under her breath*

[matterofpride]

[Oh what is this? He's just sprawled out on the ground, but he lifts is eyes to look in your direction.]

What is a lusus? [Yes, that tone is pretty dismissive and flat.]

[kittypounce]

:33 < *ac fidgets a little from her purrch but thinks its best not to get too close*
:33 < *and he sounds pretty rude, she thinks, but decides to answer his question anyway*
:33 < a lusus is like a guardian or a purrtector!
:33 < and theyre usually like an animal of some type
:33 < you can see mine up there!
:33 < *ac points to the icon her mun is using for this post*
:33 < isnt he the bestest ever??

[matterofpride]

Yes, it is the absolute bestest.

[Can we say steeped in sarcasm?]

[kittypounce]

:33 < *ac doesnt like his tone and scowls*
:33 < *she knows her lusus is the bestest - all the other trolls say so!*
:33 < i think youre just jealous
:33 < why else would you s33m so mean and uncaring?

[matterofpride]

I am positively green with envy. I only wish that one day I could have a lusus and fantastic as yours.

[Scar doesn't care because he's...Scar, and he really only cares about two things. Himself, and being King.]

[tattling]

[ points dramatically ]

You sit on a throne of lies!

[matterofpride]

I prefer to call it a throne of misdirection.

[heartsongandance]

King?

[Have a penguin head-tilt]

The King of what?

jflajk Eeee... Amazing.

[matterofpride]

The Pridelands.

[Obviously, silly penguin fool.]

hee!

[heartsongandance]

Huh. Never heard of it.

[beat]

I'm from Emperorland. I've never seen...[Man, what are you? Some kind of weird seal?]

...well, whatever you are. Do you get enough fish, where you're from? Enough to eat?

[matterofpride]

[He looks expectant then...Sighs.]

I'm a lion.

I get plenty to eat. Mostly, antelope and zebras.

[frankie_stein]

Wow, a King! You're not the first royalty I've met before (my friend Cleo is a descendant of the Egyptian royal family) but I haven't met a King before!

Am I supposed to bow ...?

[matterofpride]

You can.

[frankie_stein]

[As she starts to bow, her head falls off and rolls away]

Oh no! [Her body chases after it] Sorry about this; my stitches come loose sometimes and ... ugh, this rolling is getting me dizzy ....
