[there's a shrill, babbling voice of a worried mother meerkat cutting across the board]

I knew it, I knew it - why did I give him so much space? Why did I keep my mouth shut? It seemed something good to try at the time but but - he's gone! He's been gone for so long and he hasn't come back and he always came back except now! He's not coming back this time, I just know it. And I don't even know where he went... Timon, all alone out in this frightening jungle!

[long, quiet, jittery pause... and then a hitched sob]

He's dead. My little Timmy is... is dead!

[because Ma totally has all the evidence for this. yep.]

O-Oi...

Why do you think he's dead?

[Voice]

[meerkatmama.livejournal.com]

He never came home.

[overlords_wrath]

...How does that make him dead?

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

I'm not.

[Voice]

[overlords_wrath]

Yeah, I figured.
