(OOC: That's fine Dash, I've been playing with the idea of a kid character for this generation to bring in myself, Namita's nephew (her brother Basdev's kid) Miko whom she's watching and...yeah I think I can make it work with the current situation.)
"But never stuffy, whatever Baloo might have said" Namita assured with a smile, "In fact I always kinda thought...".
A sudden movement from the bushes interrupted Namita and a little ball of black fur with blue eyes rolled out.
"Miko..." Namita sighed. The cub leapt up, "Aunt N'ita, guess what?!" he said excitedly, "I just scared a lizard, well 'lest I almost scared it, I gotta actually learn to roar before I can scare anything, but it was like this close to being scared!" he held up his two fingers of his paws together to show a little bit.
Namita smiled apologetically at Bagheera, "Speaking of kids who are a pawful...uh you probably recall my older brother Basdev, well...I'm kind of in charge of his son after an...incident" she glanced aside a bit sadly.
The little one, Miko, turned to face Bagheera looking quizzical, then brightened "Oh you're Aunt N'ita's friend she said we might meet up with again who she said she still has the crush o-".
Namita quickly clamped a paw over the cub's mouth and pulled him over, embarrassed flush coming to her cheeks. "That's...uh, quite enough out of you young cub" she said through the grit teeth of an embarrassed grin.
She wondered if after all the other kid trouble Bagheera just said he endured they shouldn't just moved on

Shere Khan turned, only looking surprised for a bit, "Oh right...I almost forgot your little habit of...just saying things..." he cleared his throat, "Well...thankyou, I've...sort of noticed such from time to time" eh ran a paw over his head fur, "but nice of you to notice. You...um, well most definitely hold up appearance wise to be seen with me..." he went on, actually trying for a compliment

"Well thankyou sir" Hathi said to the compliment, "and yes, I've done quite the job since those far gone seasons of whipping this crew into shape, I'm a Cornel and all now you might have heard, took over for Winifred's uncle and all" (ooc: I always assumed that's where Hathi's herd came from since in the show Winifred's uncle sort of ran a herd).
Elliott paid attention to a different part of the story though, "A son?" the little calf came around to look at the tiger talking to his dad, "like...around my age?" he pried, thinking he might get another friend out of all this; he didn't have alot as it was besides Mowgli, but he was in the manvillage.
"A yes, sons, speaking of which" Hathi indicated Elliott, "mine".
"Oh, yes right, Pop says it's proper to introduce yourself, I just sort of almost forgot" Elliott clicked his heels and saluted with his trunk, "how do you do sir, I'm Elliott" he said with a bright smile.
OOC: Aw, couldn't you just imagine the three little kids, Elliott, Kyano and Miko, forming a friends group kinda similar to what their assorted guardians did
Just thought of that.
