#TLKweek2025 — day 01: hakuna matata/timbaa + hazina’s birthday
I hope it counts if it’s timbaa hcs with their granddaughter (aka my baobabfruit fankid/tlg oc), hazina and how they’d spend the day with her :]
timon and pumbaa are beyond thrilled about hazina’s first official birthday (I say official because technically she’s never had a proper birthday birthday until she was adopted by baobabfruit) and go above and beyond planning and making sure it’s the specialest day for her
they start preparations waaay before her birthday, and plan to invite EVERYBODY and I mean *everybody*
they only inform baobabfruit a day or two before her birthday, to which bunga, ono and beshte are all beyond shocked that every animal and their mother had kept this a secret from them— hazina’s parents.
but they’re happy nonetheless <3
hazina is beyond thrilled when she gets to the party and hugs and thanks timon and pumbaa a hundred times
there’s a brief moment where she begins to tear up as well because.. she was amazed at all the animals that came to celebrate this special day with her
poor baby starts crying while hugging pumbaa and timon because it’s one of those moments where she feels so unbelievably loved and cherished
timon and pumbaa remind hazina that she’s not just bunga, ono and beshte’s treasure but their’s too. and she’ll always be.
they prepare a whole termite feast for her and show her how to gobble up a bunch of bugs in a matter of seconds
teaching her the important stuff, what can I say x]
straying away from the whole birthday bit— timon and pumbaa make it a goal of theirs to pass down their ‘hakuna matata’ philosphy to hazina
unfortunately it’s only when hazina’s a bit older than she truly begins to inculcate the philosophy into her life, but she grows to appreciate her granddads all the more for it
overall she’s got loving grandpapas, who love her very very much
I apologise for not being able to do much except this— this post itself was a very last minute decision (posting this around 11pm according to my timezone cough) but I wanted to get something out for the occasion!! happy tlkweek to everybody, and once again happy birthday to hazina aka timbaa’s fave (and only) grandbaby <3
