History WMG / Bambi

[[WMG: The Man who killed Bambi's mother is Gaston from BeautyAndTheBeast.]]

** Very funny. Jossed. Flower is male and his mate is female. Disney does not get gays and lesbians into their films because children are watching.
** Not Jossed? There's no proof against it.

[[WMG: Man is The End from {{Metal Gear Solid 3}} or Sniper Wolf from the Original {{Metal Gear Solid}}.]]

The general events of the midquel technically happened in some form, but how it literally played out would end up being different from how It was depicted in the film, and certain elements of the midquel would be considered either apocryphal or flat out non-canon to the overall timeline.

This would explain the more humanized personalities of the characters and general nature of the forest being somewhat different from that of the original film, but the events before and after the midquel still play out similar or identical to how they did in the original film, so that the two films could technically still work in tandem as a continuity and [[BroadStrokes not have to worry about sweating the differences between them too much.]]

[[WMG: Bambi has a mild form of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and / or has SurvivorsGuilt.]]
* Given that he's been through a life threatening situation that costed him his mothers life due to her wanting to protect him, and he may even hold himself responsible for her death. This would also explain why he mans up in the midquel and saves Mena from a pack of hunting dogs at the risk of his own life, since he never, ever wants someone to die for his own sake again.

!Bambi's Mother [[HesJustHiding faked her death.]]

!Thumper's Father abandoned his family/went missing.

!Thumper's Sister died/went missing during the winter.

!Bambi and Faline aren't cousins after all.

!Flower's mate is male.

* Flower was simply the second most effeminate male skunk in the forest, and happened to run into the first. Their kit is adopted.

* Could be "Aunt Ena" is just a very good friend of Bambi's mother and the [[HonoraryUncle title was honorary.]]

* She realized that having Bambi become overdependant on her would be detrimental to him growing up to become the next Prince of the forest, so she abandoned Bambi at just the right time, knowing that the Great Prince would find him and care for him--in fact, her abandoning of Bambi may have been a BatmanGambit to get the Great Prince to break out of being TheStoic and actually care for someone, like he did when she and him cared for each other in the past before they drifted apart.
