Had the lineart for this sitting in my iPad for several months and decided to just bite the bullet and complete it last week. Here be my current versions of Ahadi and Uru with their currently three kids, Mufasa, Taka, and Jamaa. (I’m on the fence about giving them more kids.) Given that he’s just a scruffier Mufasa, I decided to make Simba’s uncle from An Unusual Choir biologically related to him through Mufasa.
I’m also really in love with the idea of Ahadi having a bi-colored mane where at least one of the colors doesn’t match those of his sons. As for where Mufasa gets his red mane from, well Taka/Scar’s and Uru’s mane/tail tufts are actually an extremely dark and saturated red, so I figured Ahadi’s much lighter mane would give Mufasa his red one. Or maybe it’s a recessive trait on Uru’s side of the family. In some scans of The Brightest Star, Mohatu’s mane is reddish.
The green eyes and brown nose are definitely recessive traits from Uru.

Taka stomped away with a sourness in his heart.
'Why did Muffy care so much about that stupid egg?' He thought to himself. 'He thinks he's so much better than me, does he? Well I'll show him.'
"HELP!"
Suddenly, Taka heard a sharp cry ahead. Seeing an opportunity to be heroic, he lept to action.
The source of the cry came from a small lion cub, just about his age. He was stuck on a tree branch, surrounded by the crashing river below him.
'This is perfect!' Taka thought. 'A lion like me is much more worth saving than a dumb egg!'
"Don't worry, whatever your name is!" Taka rushed to the scene, smiling. "I, Prince Taka, will save you from these treacherous waters!!"
"P-prince?" The cub stammered. "Oh thank you! My name is Pendo, and I ran away from my pride-"
"You can tell me later!" Taka interrupted. "Just grab my paw!"
Pendo looked down at the water below. The waves began moving the branch slightly. Pendo grasped onto the branch.
"I'm scared!" He cried.
"C'mon!" Taka yelled impatiently. "You don't wanna die, do you?!"
He was taken aback by the prince's sudden burst of anger. However, he slowly crept forward towards Taka, while the prince impatiently waited. Finally, what seemed like moons, Pendo grabbed his paw.
"Yes!" Taka cheered. "I saved you!"
"You did!" Pendo cried happily. "Thank you so so so-"
"Let's hurry to Pride Rock so I can show everybody." Taka pranced ahead. "C'mon, Pendi!!"
"It's Pendo.." he muttered. "But YIPPEE!!"

If The Lion King had come out whilst Tumblr was around, would Scar have been a Tumblr Sexyman, poor little meow meow, or a Woobified villain?

What if Taka and Mufasa had a sister? Lots of artists already did, but I can't remember why did I 😅 - Months ago I was looking at my old art and found a image of prince Taka and a lioness cub, but only recently I re-discovered the story behind it!
Her name was Kiara (how original past me), princess of the Pridelands and daughter of Uru and Ahadi. Lil Taka's probably proudly showing off something really cool to her.
Old version below the cut:

One thing I wonder so much is WHO decided to have Uru and Ahadi (Mufasa and Scar’s parents in TLK) meet when one was a child and the other either an adult or teen. And, follow up, WHY were so many people okay with this? Looking back, it was so gross.
Even if you have the ‘they didn’t fall for each other until later,’ it’s still deciding to have two characters meant to be mates one day to meet when one was a child and the other wasn’t. Like. It’s not OCs where it isn’t planned to have them together. It’s very much the meeting of two characters that will have children.

15 hours lature... I’m finished.
“From the crawling ant, to the leaping antelope... we are all connected in the great circle of life, Taka.”
