I've been considering the idea of a fic about the 1st Kung Fu Panda movie, where the one to raise and train Tigress was Oogway, fearing Shifu would wrong the hurt somehow due to being reminded of Tai Lung. The thing is that aside from kung fu, Oogway wants Tigress to be a child, so he takes her to the house of a single mother who takes care of many kids, so Tigress could make friends. And there she meets Po who is absolutely delighted to meet a real kung fu warrior.
Tigress and P.o. hit it off instantly, getting along like a house on fire.
Mr. Ping didn't really want Po learning kung fu, but Tigress taught him in secret.
By the time Oogway would choose a new Dragon Warrior from amongst the furious four, Tigress didn't care about being chosen. Actually, she was ecstatic for Po.
Cue to montage training where Shifu is confronted by the fact Tigress may be more capable than him at teaching.
The rest is Tai Lung x Tigress
