The genuine confidence of Tai Lung on the bridge was damn hot I have to say. I'm not a furry, but human!Tai Lung can hit it
He probably has no idea how to interact with someone in a way that's not related to martial arts. He doesn't know any way to hit it aside from literally hitting something lol
If he found someone cute for the first time he'd be legit confused and probably train the weird feelings away to make those feelings "useful"
Hrrrrrrrr imagine humanoid Tai Lung with leopard ears and a tail that always sways a little when he sees Darling
A Darling who somehow manages to catch him by surprise because he keeps unconsciously letting his guard down when he's around them, so he reacts instinctively by pinning them in a hold before realizing they're not an opponent. Once he does he lets them down and snaps at them for interrupting whatever he was doing
Hating meditation even more than he used to as a child because Darling's face keeps popping into his head. So he decides to use them to help his training instead, just to make those feelings useful and not a total distraction. Like he'll legit lift them as a warm up exercise or make them hold up targets for him to practice precision strikes with.
Him getting sick and Darling taking care of him alongside other Jade Palace attendants, and while he has a fever he's forced to accept being helped in his pathetic weakling state. Darling puts a cool rag in his forehead while he starts falling asleep, and for the first time since Shifu took care of him as a baby, he starts purring and nuzzling their hand. He just thought he was dreaming so he didn't ever think much about it, but when he discovers it actually happened he avoids them for a full week
Hating the idea of them being a weakness for him, and resenting them for "making" him weak just by existing. But also not wanting to get rid of them either...Arrrgh, how is he so strong and powerful when a weakling like Darling can cloud his mind like this?
So he decides to once again make his feelings for them useful by using them as motivation. He'll become the Dragon Warrior, and in addition to achieving his destiny as the strongest warrior in the world and receiving ultimate power, he'll have earned them as well.
Also Shifu can see how his ears perk up, how his tail sways a little sometimes, and how his pupils widen a little whenever That One Palace Attendant is with him. I think he'd initially discourage Tai Lung from doing anything that would distract him from his rightful destiny, but Oogway would probably tell him that loving someone is not a distraction or weakness. Compared to that, only a fool would consider the Dragon Scroll more important.
...still, our guy Oogway would also see how the darkness in Tai Lung might hurt those he cares about. Maybe he'd try to encourage Tai Lung being around Darling to a) dissuade him from working so hard to become the Dragon Warrior, since he never can be and b) bring a little bit of light to diminish the darkness in his heart. Love isn't a form of kung fu, but it IS a powerful force of nature, after all.

I’m sending this again just in case because I had bad connection last time. Feel free to skip! For human Tai Lung.
“M-Master Tai Lung, I didn’t mean to startle you! I only came to bring you tea. Master Oogway said you had requested a pot. C-could you please let me up? Y-you’re hurting me.”
(I went with a human with anthro features Tai Lung, kinda like Leona from TWST in terms of human-to-furry ratio)
He releases you from the hold he'd put you in after waking from his short nap to noises coming from someone in his room.
"My apologies," he says curtly. "Leave it there, please."
He watches you silently, his tail swishing absentmindedly as he watches you expertly prepare and serve the tea. He sees the part on your arm where his nails had dug in and left marks, even drawing a bit of blood. Non-martial artists really were weak, fragile creatures. They were the only one he really paid any attention to--sometimes too much. Oogway and Shifu always said that a true master could see the beauty in delicate and fragile things. Maybe that was why.
"You're one of a handful of people who's been able to sneak up on me," he remarked with a small smirk. "The other two being Master Oogway and Master Shifu. I need to train more if I'm being taken by surprise by someone like you."
He reaches for a spare bolt of cloth in one of his drawers and takes your arm to wrap it around the spot where he drew blood. Typically he uses it to wrap his arms and legs during training, but he can always get more. Besides, when you can break mountains with your fist, you've moved past the need to protect yourself when you were a novice.
"Next time you enter my room, knock on the floor or something. I'd hate to show my strength on accident again and wind up laying you down." His eyes widen. "Out. Laying you out. From injuring your arm again. Or killing you."
He picks you up with one arm and basically throws you out of the room before sliding his door shit to drink his tea and punch through a training block with his free hand. He really felt the need to break something with his fists.

While everyone is waiting for the meeting of Tai Lung and Shifu in the new part, I am waiting for the meeting of these two (I am sure they have something to discuss).
And judging by the trailer, all the villains from the previous parts will return (I really want to believe it)
