Just a note I thought would go with the posts that've been going on for a while now. (Mufasa and Simba are walking in the morning throgh the pridelands, Mufasa showing Simba the kingdom...) Mufasa- Everything you see exists together, in a delicate balance. As king, you need to understand that balance, and respect all parts of it- from the leaping antelope to your falling pants. Simba- But Dad... We don't WEAR any pants... Mufasa- Yes Simba, but let me explain. Beyond our boarders, in a land far, far away, there live a group of humans so devoted to our lives that they rewrite our words in the form of "fan fiction." Simba- (looking dazed) Wierd... Mufasa- They meet together over the internet through an email list to show each other what they've written. And so we are all connected through their great circle of posts. Zazu- Good morning, Sire! Mufasa- Good morning, Zazu. Zazu- Checking in with the morning pants... Mufasa- Fire away. Zazu- ... And I did mean the morning report, your magesty... Where DID that come from...? Simba- "Fan fiction"... I think Zazu- Ah, very good... Mufasa notices Simba looks very distracted. What are you thinking, son? Simba- About pants and email and what it all has to do with us... Mufasa cuckles as a gopher apears interrupting the morning pants... er report. Gopher- Zazu. Sir, news from the underground... Zazu- (to Mufasa) Sire! Pants! In the pridelands! Mufasa- Zazu, take simba home. Simba- Awh Dad, can't I come? I want to see "fan fiction" and email posts for myself! Mufasa- No son. Simba frowns as his father takes off across the land. I never get to go see anything. Zazu- Oh, young master, one day you will be king... And by then the internet will have probably come to the Pridelands... Then you can get online and follow those random, ridiculous pants "fan fictions" from dawn until dusk. Maybe I'll redo it all like this, the inspiration just HIT me to write this as it is but more is flowing through my mind... Leme know what y'all think! ££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££ Mirrani ££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££ "Violence is a precision instrument, it's a scalpel, not a club." -Intendant Kira Nerys, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine "If there's nothing wrong with me, maybe there's something wrong with the universe..." -Beverly Crusher, Star Trek: The Next Generation "Life is like loading twice your cargo weight onto your spacecraft.
