Ugh, this thing was leaking so much liquid it was disgusting. Making a face, Tinkerbell hesitated a little more before reaching out to pat his head in some vague attempt at comfort...

"What -- HEY!" When his paws attempted to grab hold again, she wasn't quick enough to dodge. Now squirming in his grasp and red-faced from anger as much as exertion, she kicked her little feet and winced as her wings were crushed uncomfortably. "You better let me go if you know what's good for you, you smelly...big-nosed...rat!" To accentuate her words, she chomped down on his paw as hard as she could.

The meerkat tilted his head to the side, examining what he had caught, curious more than anything else. Her protests were ignored as he turned her in his hold, wondering just what he had found. It was like some sort of little human, only it had wings. Part of him suspected her to be a toy like Woody or Bullseye but she felt warm compared to Woody. Her face was also getting awfully red. He hadn’t been holding her too tightly, had he? Timon loosened his hold. He didn’t want to hurt the thing, the idea of eating it less appealing by the second.

Smelly? Big-nosed? R-“AAAAGGGGHHHH!” Scratch that. He wanted it dead. Timon released his hold of Tinkerbell and cried out in pain. “I was gonna let you go!” Great, now his nose and paw hurt. “Stupid, little…” In frustration, he flailed his arms in the air, continuing to cry in both pain and annoyance. “Get back here!”

"Oh, please! This is another trick!" she shouted back, zooming in and out of his range like the angriest wasp. This wasn't the first time an animal had mistaken her for food but certainly the first time someone had tried to trick her like this. Glowing red, she continued to harass him...but one of his flailing arms caught her just as she was about to go in for another kick. With a wordless cry, Tinkerbell was knocked away and into the nearest bush.

Groaning, she sprawled over the twisting branches under a canopy of leaves, her golden glow shining even through the green.

Who would have thought his attempts to ward the riled pixie away would be so successful? However, he had not meant so much to swat her away as he did to just scare or catch her. He followed Tinkerbell to the bush he had knocked her into and pried back its branches to look inside. Even if she hadn’t her unmistakable glow, he would have found her easily enough. Years of experience tracking bugs came with more than one perk. Though, the pixie would have been anything but flattered to hear that.

“That’s what you get!” The meerkat snapped once he had found Tinkerbell. “I do not smell and my nose is not big, big, big!” Unless he had somehow acquired Pumbaa’s unique smell, Timon was confident he had his hygiene perfectly under control. As for his nose, there wasn't so much he could do about that.

Tinkerbell slowly sat up and struggled to her feet, only to fall down to her knees. So this was it, huh? This was how she was going to die, mistaken for lunch by an overgrown mouse with attitude. Sniffling back tears, she clenched her hands over her thighs and glared up at him.

"You just try to eat me! I'll kick you in the stomach from the inside!" She sniffled again, angrily scrubbing away her tears. One of her wings was misshapen and crumpled and her arm hung loosely at her side. "I'm not a bug and I'm not food! I didn't even do anything to you!" She picked up a berry from the branch she was on and flung it right between his eyes.

"And you may not be smelly but you sure are mean!"
