Description

My little Disney human!Aus I doodled last night and came up with little stories

1. Oliver, an orphan, got himself in a big brother & little brother program and got himself the bestest brother of them all - Dodger picks Oliver from school with his motorbike and helps him with his homework and all, sometimes even treats him a hotdog or ohter snacks. They play all the cool games.

Sometimes Oliver accidently calls Dodger "dad", but they don't speak about it.

2. Thomas, a rather poor man doing the odd jobs here and there, met mrs Duchess at a park one day. She was reading a book with a peaceful aura and she got the looks so Thomas didn't hesitate to ask her out. When she didn't want to leave the park he had just shrugged and suggested that he'd grab a coffee from a near shop and she had agreed. Thomas had used last of his pennies on coffee and had talked with her the whole afternoon and fallen in love with her, and when she finally looked like she'd leave the park, these three kids had come from somewhere and called her their mom talking a mile in a minute. Well Thomas had noticed then two things, that mrs Duchess didn't have a ring on her or that the kids didn't seem to talk anything about fatherly figures, and that she looked approvingly at him when he didn't scream and run away when her children had called her.

So now Thomas finds himself trying to wear dapper clothes because while he doesn't have to, he tries to impress mrs Duchess' great aunt; with three children and one coming up; loving woman and a future where he might be mr Duchess.

3. Mr and Mrs Pongo are good willed people with big hearts, and okay, big wallets because while they have few of their own kids, they also adopt a lot of kids. Somehow they all have freckles, even the adopted ones, so the neighborhood calls them the Dalmatian family.

Their nextdoor neighbours are the Darlings, with three kids. While the neighborhood is rich, not many knows about the past of mr Darling, when he was a tramp when he met mrs Darling. Well if they knew, they would have guessed why mr Darling always told quite frankly the truths about life to his kids - even the embarassing ones. Don't take it wrong, while he is truthful about life, he still has humour and he means well.

4. Simba lost his parent's in a car accident when he was young, and when it came clear that his only relative, his uncle, was behind the accident, he was adopted by a gay couple. Timon and Pumbaa (a nickname as Simba couldn't pronounce his real name right) are the head cooks on a local five star french restaurant - Simba says that the food they make is slimy but satisfying when his firends asks about the food.

In the picture Simba has had a nightmare about the car accident, only now there wasn't his real parents with him, but Timon and Pumbaa, so he needed extra comforting.

5. Mr Bagheera (or Baggie - a nickname he does not approve a bit) is a single parent by choise. He didn't feel like having a relationship with anybody, ever, so he had his son Mowgli with a close friend, who agreed to not be a part as a parent of their life after giving birth.

Mr Bagheera is a professor of sorts in university, and he expects Mowgli to take his school seriously, but he isn't a tyrant about it, so Mowgli gets to have football as a hobby. Which he kinda regrets, a little bit, because football got mr Baloo in their life. Baloo is the team Hathi's coach, Mowgli's coach, and somehow he wormed inside of Bagheera and Mowgli's life outside of football.

It scares Bagheera that he likes it, that Mowgli likes it, and they both are fine with that Baloo is somewhat courting Bagheera with silly nicknames, food and being a second parent to Mowgli.

6. Bambi and Nemo bonded when they realised that they were both with a single parent (then they friended with Mowgli, Roo and Oliver). While Nemo's dad is doing a dull banking job, Bambi's mother is a police officer - or rather was, until job gone wrong. What was supposed to be a simple arresting of a little criminal, a pocket thief, ended with gunfire, and Bambi's mother died.

Now Bambi's gotta go to live with his father who he doesn't even know.

7. Mrs Kanga, a young single mother, has a son named Robert ("Roo" for short). She owns her own bakery & coffee shop, and basically works 24h/7 and handles Roo at the same time. Sometimes, when she needs to go out with her friends (she's in a basketball team) she asks for Tigger (Tigger because no way he is allowing anyone to call him Tiberius), a nice young man, just shy from his 20th birthday, to watch after Roo.

Roo loves to have something akin to a big brother around, who plays with him and lets him jump on the trampoline all the time and makes the best of the bestest sandwiches in the world.

Kanga sometimes asks Tigger to help her around the house and he does more than willingly, and he is good in what he does. He's plummed every pipe in the house, painted the livingroom walls and build a bunk bed for Roo.

Kanga approves this.

Tigger loves Kanga and Roo more than anything.

Kanga has feelings for Tigger but doesn't do anything, even when she knows Tigger's feelings, because she doesn't want Tigger to loose his years of youth to them - and she is wary, because when she became pregnant with Roo she was just a teenager herself, and her boyfriend left him when he heard the news.

So if Tigger sticks with them for a couple more years, she might do something. Maybe.

... This is too bitter sweet and now I've made myself sad.
