Nguruma (Ava15's Fanfics)/Relationships

The relationships of Nguruma.
== Family ==
=== Simba and Nala ===
Nguruma and his parents have a very close and loving relationship. Simba and Nala are very protective of their son, and strive to protect him at all costs, which he finds to be overbearing and not annoying. Following a long talk after his return from the Tree of Life, Simba and Nala are less protective of Nguruma and let him explore for himself, though at times, still worry about him in secret.
=== Kiara ===
Nguruma has a close relationship with his older sister. Kiara is shown to be overprotective of her younger brother, and strives to care for and protect him.

=== Kion ===
Nguruma and Kion care for each other deeply.
