As me and Bambi are walking around the forest, we see another fawn with darker colors.
Bambi: "damn it it's Ronno"
Me: "who's Ronno?"
Bambi: "he's my rival"
Ronno: "well if it ain't the young Princess"
Bambi: "hey Ronno"
Ronno: "is this your hunter friend?"
Me: "the name's Luke, and it's nice to meet you and I'm not a-"
Ronno: "like I give a shit about your name"
Bambi: "HEY ASSHOLE!"
Ronno: "what princess?"
Bambi: "don't talk about him like that!"
Me: "Bambi what are you doing?"
Bambi: "standing up for you brother"
Ronno: "Brother?! That thing killed your mother"
Bambi: "What?!"
Ronno: "I'm not here to pick a fight with you, I know damn well you'll win"
Bambi: "is that compliment?"
Ronno: "sure whatever, Luke here killed your mother Bambi"
Bambi: "Luke let's go home NOW"
Me: "but I wanna get to know Ronno-"
Bambi: "NO! LET'S GO HOME!"
Luke: "Okay Bam"
As they turn to leave Bambi looks at Ronno
Bambi: "Thanks for letting me know Ron"
Ronno: "no problem buddy"
*as me and Bambi walk*
Me: "Bam-"
Bambi: "how could you do this to me- to us?!"
Me: "because my father forced me! I never wanted to pull that damn trigger!"
Bambi: "what do you mean he forced you?"
Me: "it was a gut-wrenching mistake Bam"
Bambi: *stops walking and starts sniffling* "no it wasn't"
Me: "sweetheart, please believe me when I say that it was a horrible mistake. I never wanted to kill your mother"
Bambi: "what's the story?"
Me: "I was forced into shooting her, my dad and my cousin forced me into hunting and I was tasked with killing a deer and the only deer in the meadow was your mother"
Bambi: "that doesn't give any excuse to pull the trigger"
Me: "no, Bam. It's not an excuse. no excuse can make this better"
Bambi: "because of you, I'm torn apart"
Me: "Bambi..... I know this is hard to hear but it's the truth"
Bambi: "I understand, it's not your fault you were forced into this"
Me: "yes, I was forced into this"
Bambi: "it's okay brother, I get it"
Me: "thanks for understanding Bam"
Bambi: "thanks for telling me"
Me: "no problem"
*later that night I'm sleeping peacefully and Bambi snuggles up and puts his head under my head and snuggles against my neck*
Bambi: "what happened was not your fault, but what you did to try and fix it is everything. I love you, dad"
*the next day*
Bambi: "Luke wake up!"
Me: *waking up* "I love you too son"
Bambi: *nuzzling me* "I love you too"
*later in the day*
Me: "remember when you talked to me while I was asleep?"
Bambi: "yes? What about it?"
Me: "even though I was asleep, I still heard you, because I was listening with a different part of myself, my heart"
Bambi: "You were?"
Me: "yes, I love you too Bam"
