my dear, i just think you said that in order to see how easily you could sway my son..once he becomes king, he will be much harder to sway, becuause of royal traditions, and decrees and all that good boring stuff that Zazu bored into me when i was a cub. i just wanted to rule, i didn't know how hard it wouldn't actually be running a kingdom. i really doubt you'd actually eat timon or pummba, yes they can be annoying but they are my friends, as long as they live, they are under my protection, even if i am no longer king..
