Found another cursed King Dedede image I photoshopped. Nintendo is screaming
A Land of Dreams.
Happy 30th, Puffball.
Have any of you heard about a waddle dee who fought in the arena? Ever since bandana dee showed up nobody’s seen him, I can’t imagine that bandana dee was the arena dee though…
Have some more frames from that PMV I was working on!
You don't hav eto draw a comic or anything if you don't want to, but I had the question of how would the cast react if theu turned into human/gijinka for a day?
answering this one ooc because it's easier than doing it in character
First off, I'm going to assume that they all become Adeleine-sized humans rather than average-sized real humans. I believe Kirby is canonically like 8 inches tall, so like. Everything on Planet Popstar is Small. A real human would be a Giant there and probably wouldn't fit into most buildings lmao. So yeah, everyone stays within a reasonable enough range of Adeleine's height.
Putting the rest of this under a cut since it's pretty long
Marx has arms and hands now, oh god oh fuck. Who allowed him to have this kind of power. He is going to commit even More atrocities. It'll take him a bit of time to figure out how to use those hands, sure, but you just gave him powerful instruments of Chaos. He will learn how to use them, and once he does you'd better run. After him. Please, catch him before it's too late.
Magolor now has arms attached to his hands instead of just having them floating around. That's gotta feel weird. I just imagine him trying to move his hands around in some sort of weird way that he's normally able to do, but can't because his arms are in the way dgdshs. Also legs. He's got those now, and that's definitely also weird. Though if we want to assume that everyone keeps their powers through the transformation, then he'd probably just use his magic to float and continue denying the floor lmao
Speaking of which, Susie also gains arms and legs, and unlike Magolor she's not gonna be able to avoid having to use those legs if she wants to move around (unless she uses some sort of technology to help her out?). Aside from that though she doesn't change too much physically, since she already looks very humanoid. Though since I personally like to deny canon and see her as a robot, the transition from being mechanical to an organic being would definitely be Very Weird.
I'm kind of inclined to say that Dedede would have it the easiest out of everyone? It'd still be strange for him, of course, but at least he doesn't have to get used to any new limbs or anything. He'd just have to adjust to slightly different body proportions and a completely different facial structure, which, again, still would be strange, but isn't as bad as everyone else, who have to deal with all of that on top of other things.
Meta Knight, meanwhile, I think might have it the worst. Yes, in terms of new changes he's on equal ground with Kirby and Bandana Dee, who are all mostly spherical creatures who need to adjust to having longer limbs and a head separate from their body. However, Meta Knight has been training for most of his life to be an agile and powerful fighter, and all of what he's learned is going to go out the window when he's in this clunky new human form. His combat capabilities are going to be pretty stunted as a human; even after he adjusts to things better I doubt he'd be able to move as swiftly as he does in his normal body. And he is Not going to be happy about that. And then there's also his wings, which I think he might still keep? Since I personally see them as being part of his body (though I think the newer games might be trying to imply that they're actually just his cape). But either way, even if he does keep his wings, flying would definitely be much more difficult as a human. So all in all, Meta Knight's pretty upset about everything, and has probably hidden himself away from everyone else so he can grumpily brood in peace until things go back to normal (assuming there's nothing he can do to get things fixed quicker, that is).
Kirby has a lot of changes to get used to, but he's nothing if not adaptable. It can't be much worse than being split into ten smaller versions of yourself, or becoming a literal ball with no limbs, or being completely made of yarn, right? And in all of those cases he didn't have access to his copy ability, so he can still fare well enough without it. So, after the initial adjustment period, I think Kirby would be pretty much okay! He'd still be happy to go back to his regular body, of course, but during the day he'd be in a much better mood than most of the cast.
Bandee also has a mouth now, on top of everything else that's different. I've never given much thought to how Waddle Dees communicate, but it does make me wonder if Bandee would have to do it differently from his usual way when he's in his human form?
Phoenix is the defence and Edgeworth is the prosecution because yes
Dedede is the defendant. I dunno if he’d be accused of murder or something more minor like stealing. Either way he’s innocent tho
Kirby replaces Maya as Phoenix's assistant. His special ability is eating the evidence. Is that helpful? Not in the least.
Meta Knight works with Edgeworth as his assistant. Being a witness would probably make more sense but I’m biased and want those two to work together so… Ye. The Kirby universe is a lot less realistic than the AA universe, so maybe Meta Knight's there to help Edgeworth with the more magical aspects of the case and explain shit. He’s pretty neutral on the whole situation, cuz he doesn’t believe that Dedede would commit a crime like this but the evidence is pretty damning.
Bandee’s the main witness and he hates it. He REALLY doesn’t wanna testify against Dedede, but he doesn’t have much of a choice. He probably tries to help Phoenix and Kirby in any way possible during investigations to get Dedede declared innocent.
Magolor’s probably one of those troublesome witnesses that bring Edgeworth pain lmao
More under the cut
The crime would take place in Dedede's castle probably. Wherever it is it’s pretty dark out when the crime happens, so stuff like colour isn’t very visible. Still, Dedede's silhouette is pretty recognizable, and it’d be hard to mistake him for someone else.
There’s probably a photo of the crime, maybe from a security camera or something. That could be why Magolor gets called in as a witness actually. He had recently set up all those cameras around the castle, so he was asked to talk about them.
It’s probably initially thought that Dedede was possessed when he committed the crime, since he has a history of that happening. Maybe Maya's called in as an expert on ghosts. Spirit channelling isn’t the same thing as what Zero, Dark Matter, etc. does, but it’s the closest thing the Ace Attorney characters would be able to compare it to. Still, judging by past cases, Dedede would still be declared guilty even if he had been possessed.
Maybe sometime during one of the trials, Kirby decides to snack on a seemingly innocent piece of evidence and becomes Poison Kirby, revealing that poison was used in some way during the crime?
During… I guess the second trial, when all hope seems lost, Kirby copies Phoenix’s lawyer abilities and realizes that the Meta Knight at the Prosecutor’s bench is, in fact, Dark Meta Knight! Apparently, Dark Meta Knight had disguised himself as Meta Knight and switched places with him during a recess (or even before the trial started). The real Meta Knight was probably locked inside a closet or something
This opens up the possibility that someone from the Mirror World committed the crime. The Ace Attorney characters didn’t even know the Mirror World existed until this point, and the Kirby crew never considered the idea since they thought the portal was closed.
Shadow Dedede ends up being questioned and brought to court, and he is found out to be the real culprit of the case.
Dedede: Friends!? Every Dark Matter we've met has either attacked or possessed us!
Bandee: W-well, except you, that is...
Bandee: ...And Gooey, if you count him.
((@zeros-witness))
Meta Knight: During the battle, I was able to slice off some of the fabric of Nightmare's robe, which I fashioned into my cape.
Meta Knight: I do not know how the fabric was enchanted, but it has been very useful to me.
In the weeks leading up to April Fools, Marx and Magolor were constantly hyping up the day. They'd make plans for pranks, bring home tons of materials, etc.
So, of course, everyone else is worried about what's to come. On April Fools day, everyone (except Kirby) was super cautious and on edge, constantly checking everything for traps.
What did Marx and Magolor end up doing? Nothing. The one prank that occurred that day was one by Kirby that involved a whoopee cushion. Their plan was to make everyone think they were doing something crazy and watch the chaos unfold.
...That said, they still have plenty of prank supplies to use over the next few months, so the rest of the group should probably watch out.
Hey Dedede, why is your mallet semi-mechanical when you're in Smash, but just a plain one elsewhere?
"Hello! It's me again! I have a different set of survey questions! What is your favourite colour? And could you explain how it is your favourite colour?" (@zeros-witness)
Kirby: I like all colours! Especially bright ones!
Dedede: I like reds and oranges. That’s why a lot of my castle’s got those colours.
Meta Knight: Dark colours are useful when you don’t want to be seen.
Bandana Dee: Um… I like blue. L-like my bandana.
Magolor: Yeah, I’m with Bandee. Blue’s pretty cool. The Lor’s got a lot of blue.
Marx: My favourite colour? Uh… I guess the red and blue of my hat’s pretty nice?
Marx: I killed god for you what more do you want
Dedede: ...For you to not be a dick?
Dedede narrowed his eyes.
“If you guys are thinkin’ of taking over Popstar again, then I suggest ya stay away.”
Excuse me, good day kind citizens of Dream Land... Could you tell me what you think of our Lord, Zero? Please reply honestly, and if it wouldn't take too much time, could you fill out a survey, each? (@zeros-witness)
Kirby: He was really mean and scary…
Dedede: That’s the guy who possessed me, right? Yeah, can’t say I like him much.
Bandana Dee: That’s… Gooey’s dad or something, right..? I-I’ve never met him, but he doesn’t sound very nice…
Meta Knight: I’ve never met him myself, but from what I’ve heard it’s a good thing he’s dead.
Marx: Uh… Who?
Magolor: Zero, Zero, Zero… Hmmm… I think I’ve read about him before, but I’m not sure.
Meta Knight: What type of survey would you like us to fill out?

((Fun fact: Before I realized that Magolor outright states that he met someone who told him about Kirby, it was gonna be Meta Knight's fault that Marx was alive. The magic used to summon Nova and fight Galacta Knight would have also revived Marx. So basically, between blowing up his own ship and reviving a guy who tried to take over the world, Meta Knightmare Ultra would have been "Meta Knight Fucks Up: The Subgame."))
Marx: Bitch.
Dedede: Blocked.
Marx: Wait unblock me I need to tell you something
Dedede: Unblocked.
Marx: Bitch.
((Apparently there aren't any other pictures of the beautiful Dedede crouch without a background, so here you go. Keep in mind the picture's pretty small though.))
Kirby: To protect the world from devastation!
Meta Knight: To unite all people within our nation!
Kirby: To fight against evil with truth and love!
Meta Knight: To extend our reach to the stars above!
Kirby: Kirby!
Meta Knight: Meta Knight!
Kirby: Star Warriors blast off at the speed of light!
Meta Knight: Surrender now or prepare to fight!
Dedede: *appears out of nowhere* Dedede, that's right!
*Kirby and Meta Knight stare at Dedede*
Dedede: What?
((Magolor is a good boi and very much regrets what he's done.))
Meta Knight: Follow me, I will take you to the bridge.
Dedede: Yeah, I'd like to push you off one!
One time Dedede had to feed himself and Kirby, so he made mac and cheese and grabbed a bag of chips. Kirby didn't mind, but Bandana Dee wasn't too impressed when he found out.
Bandana Dee is the only one who can cook.
Kirby's too young (though he does like to help out sometimes), Dedede is lazy and never bothered to learn, Meta Knight is a terrible chef, Marx doesn't have arms or hands, and nobody trusts Magolor enough to let him cook.
((Out of character for Meta Knight and Dedede? Maybe, but it's kinda funny so I'm gonna give it a pass.))
((also holy crap i actually drew dedede well for once))

((Don't take the little age ranges too seriously. I feel like I tend to write Kirby and Bandana Dee as if they're younger than that, for one thing.))

((Also Meta Knight gets four description things cuz I couldn't decide which one not to use.))
