I really enjoy your writing, its one of the ways I got back into Kirby the way I did heehee.
Anyways a prompt, maybe meta and dedede being dads to Kirby and Bandee? Its one of my favorite headcanons and I would like to see ur take on it <3
thank you so much for your kind words! I took some liberties with the prompt, but, Meta Knight and Dedede are good, sweet dads to Kirby and Bandana Dee
On all accounts, it sounded like a good idea—a trip away from Dreamland, just the four of them, out camping and exploring previously unexplored spots of Popstar. With Dreamland left in the capable hands of Dedede’s Waddle Dees, Kirby’s many friends, and Meta Knight’s…. Meta-Knights, they embarked on their weeklong journey with little to no worry on their minds. King Dedede and Kirby sang jollily out of tune as they made for a place Meta Knight had scouted out from the air for them to be an ideal camping spot, with Meta Knight himself and Bandana Waddle Dee covering the rear.
Even as the sun began to set and they got their tent ready and roasted marshmallows over a fire Meta Knight and Bandana Dee made, things were well. Peaceful, even. So much so that Meta Knight removed his mask and allowed himself to bask in the feelings with a smile on his face.
The atmosphere changed drastically when Kirby and Bandana Dee went to get some rest. A loud, panicked “Wanya!” had Meta Knight and Dedede rush into the tent, and find Kirby comforting an equally teary-eyed Bandana Dee from the nightmare he’d just woken up from.
Meta sighs, sharing a look with Dedede.
“We are outside of Dreamland, after all… it was only inevitable.”
“Yeah,” Dedede mutters, crouching down and pulling Bandana close, rubbing the Dee’s head. “No fountain here for us.” Kirby joins Bandana by Dedede’s side, demanding snuggles as well. Dedede chuckles wryly. “Sorry, you two. Guess we kinda… forgot about that, huh?”
“I-It’s okay! I’ll protect Bandana from the bad dreams!” Kirby pipes up, but his voice trembles tellingly. Bandana Dee hadn’t been the only one to wake from a nightmare, then.
“Kirby.” Meta Knight kneels by Kirby’s side, placing a hand on the pink puff’s head. “It is alright. King Dedede and I will protect you. Will we not, Dedede?” He turns to look at the king, whose face is mere inches away from Meta’s own. Oh, how tempting it is to lean against his love and cuddle together, but Meta Knight means to keep his promise to the shaken-up Kirby and Bandana Dee who both stare at him with a look of gratitude in their eyes.
“Thank you, Sir Meta Knight,” Bandana Dee says, mustering a happy face, his approximation of a smile. Meta Knight nods and offers a smile of his own, reaching over to give Bandana a pat on the head as well when Dedede retracts his. “And you too, your majesty.”
“Aw, it’s nothin’! We adults gotta take care of ya, don’t we?” Dedede grins, pulling both Kirby and Bandana Dee in for a hug. “Now… oh! Why don’t Meta sing us a lullaby?”
“Oh!” Kirby’s eyes light up and he looks expectantly over at his mentor slash friend, wearing a bright smile as if the nightmare has already been driven from his mind. “Please, Meta? Pretty please?”
“I—ahem—I do not know if that would be a good idea…” Meta mutters, pointedly averting his gaze. Dedede grins, gently nudging him.
“C’mon now, ya said we’d protect ‘em, right? I’m sure that includes a night of good sleep, yeah? ‘M sure a lullaby from your nice voice’s gonna lull them into a happy sleep, won’t it? Chase away the bad dreams for them, ‘n all.”
“Dedede…” Meta sighs, shifting a little. A lullaby from him would be more pleasing to the ears than the out-of-tune Dedede, but still… Meta isn’t particularly fond of singing, let alone for a group who’d never let them hear the end of it. But the looks they’re all giving him, especially Dedede… how could he resist?
“If it sweetens the deal for ya, I could do an interpretive dance to go along with it,” Dedede jokes, making Kirby giggle.
Meta shakes his head with a fond sigh. “That would defeat the purpose of lulling them to sleep, would it not? But… alright. Just this once. For their sakes.”
“‘Course. Here, hold on, lemme tuck ‘em in.” Dedede picks up Bandana Dee and Kirby both, bringing them over to their shared sleeping space, consisting of an inflatable mattress and a few pillows Kirby convinced Meta to put in his pocket dimension. Dedede tucks them in as promised, making sure they’re warm and comfortable together. He crawls back over to join Meta by his side, pulling the knight against him in an open sign of affection, and nuzzles the top of Meta’s head. “Work yer magic.”
“Right.” Meta clears his throat and closes his eyes, starting to hum softly. He’s not got a bad voice by any means, but it isn’t as if he sings often. He hums a repetitive melody, forgoing the use of lyrics, and keeps it up until he’s sure Bandana Dee and Kirby have fallen asleep, snuggled up together and quietly snoring.
They’re not the only ones affected, though. Dedede leans more heavily on Meta’s body and snores far louder than the two others, having pulled Meta into a sideways hug. Meta smiles fondly and manages to extract himself from Dedede’s grasp, gently carrying the king over to their corner of the tent and tucking him in just as he did Bandana Dee and Kirby.
“I promise to watch out for all of you,” he whispers, standing up and preparing to exit the tent. It seems to wake Dedede, who gives him a sleepy smile.
“‘M keepin’ watch tomorrow,” he mumbles, “Or we could together so that ya don’t have to do it alone…” he trails off, slurring his words.
With Bandana Dee and Kirby fast asleep, it’s a tad easier for Meta to be open with his affections toward Dedede. He smiles again. “I will surely take you up on that offer. For now, please rest, my love. I will ensure all of you will sleep safely. I swear this on my honor as a knight.”
With a half-hearted mumble, Dedede turns around and almost immediately falls back asleep. Meta gives the three of them one last look and exits the tent, content to keep watch by the fire, so long as it makes them feel more comfortable sleeping out here and gives them a night of pleasant dreams.
True to his word, Dedede joins him the next night, and they spend it cuddled up together, whispering words of affection to one another while entangled in the other’s arms. Every now and then they go to check on Kirby and Bandana Dee, ensuring that the two are sleeping safe and soundly.
