I personally think this was really fun to do. His face and the concept of astronaut Meta Knight is so cool!!
Astro Knight
I’m on a roll!! Look at me gooo!!!
I don’t think anyone asked for this, but I’ll give it out anyway!!
Here’s a version without the lines in Kirby!
Since the PO fandom uses this chart to show how their ocs are with the other boxer, I thought I’d give it a shot too!
Ramble under cut
Glass Joe!
Why wouldn’t Kirby like him? Joe is such a kind guy, and he shows Kirby the best cafes with the best strawberry shortcakes ever!! They love each other’s company, and they don’t really have a reason to dislike each other. Sure Joe is a little concerned about Kirby fighting these huge guys that can knock him down in one punch, but Kirby is pretty well off. There’s no need to worry
Von Kaiser!
He’s cool with Kirby. Not too swayed by his cuteness, but not too disgusted by his cartoony personality. Kaiser focuses a bit more on Kirby’s small height, unconfirmed age, and his species entirely. Sometimes Kirby would swing by his place to get training, tips, gift giving, or just hanging out! Kirby sees Kaiser as a bigger friend than the other way around.
Disco Kid!
Kirby’s like a little brother to him, AND a best friend too! Disco and Kirby stuck together like glue after their fight and throughout the minor circuit. If Kirby ever has a question or problem, Disco is the first person he’d call! Also, Disco is just a train ride away! They’d hang out together at dance clubs, or at Disco’s house. They never stop smiling when the other is around!
King Hippo!
Given how Hippo lives with Disco for a home, Hippo sees Kirby a lot and really enjoys his presence! Hippo would take Kirby out to fun lil farmers markets and outdoor cafes for funsies and for food! Maybe an eating competition here and there, but only if Disco has the money and/or space. They’re just best friends!
Piston Hondo!
Hondo will never EVER admit he was swayed by Kirby’s cuteness and charm. Hence why he distances himself from the little guy. The least Hondo did to assist Kirby is give him a little advice and Japanese treats for him after fights. Kirby kinda treats Hondo like Meta Knight, which is like Kirby giving Meta space when needed as he’s to as close as he would be now. (Kirby was transported after RTDL and they were all still trying to get accustomed to Meta Knight not wanting them dead.) Hondo and Kirby’s friendship is just…a casual thing.
Bear Hugger!
BEST friends! Bear Hugger is like another Doc to Kirby, but has less time to be with him. Bear is almost always checking on Kirby, and making sure he gets outside when he’s having bad days in or just to see the the Canadian animals in the area!
Great Tiger!
They’re like two peas in a pod! Tiger finds it easy to communicate with Kirby despite not speaking in a language he’s understood or learned. Great Tiger is also the only person who seems out of wack in a way Kirby can relate to. They’re great friends!
Don Flamenco!
Don really tries to make amends with Kirby, but he holds onto grudges like they’d run away if he lets go. He can’t bring himself to fully hate Kirby because he’s cute, he’s too kind, and Kirby brings little presents each time he swings by. Also Carmen LOVE Kirby’s presence, so he mustn’t hate him and make her sad. Kirby just sees Don as a friend though. He knows what it’s like for someone to resent him for just existing, so he tries to be casual and slightly distanced.
Aran Ryan!
Kirby really really tries to be friends with Aran but CANNOT trust him. Aran always acts like friends with Kirby for a few days, and then breaks his trust in some major way. Kirby’s just too gullible and constantly gets back to a little friendship, but then Aran breaks his trust again. Aran just finds Kirby’s inability to not have friends funny, constantly playing dirty little pranks on the oblivious little guy that just wants to be friends with him. It sort of disgusts Aran how friendly Kirby can be with everyone and how everyone always makes amends. He’s just a hater.
Soda Popinski!
Also best friends! Soda is like some super cool big guy to Kirby, and Kirby likes super cool big guys! Kinda like Dedede! Kirby was concerned for Soda after he started drinking like crazy and the scientists tried to distance Kirby from him. Soda likes Kirby! He’s ashamed to admit it, but picking up people that are smaller than him is super fun! And Kirby likes getting picked up, so it was like an immediate friendship.
Bald Bull!
Bald Bull and Kirby’s relationship is pretty average! Kirby kinda looks at Bull like an idol as his boxing match was what inspired him to box too! Bald Bull doesn’t really like being seen as an idol, but lets it slide because Kirby isn’t too overbearing or invasive. Kirby thinks Bull is super cool, but is scared seeing him in the ring.
Super Macho Man!
Can barely remember who Kirby is. He only started to paid attention to him after he lost, but even then he barely cared about Kirby. Kirby had tried to be friends with Macho, but Macho mainly cared about his hot babes and money. The WVBA pays him to show up to the stadiums and box. If it weren’t for that, Macho wouldn’t even care to be there.
Mr. Sandman!
Can’t get over the fact, and never will get over the fact that he’s lost to nothing but mere children in his career. However after the TD match, Sandman began to respect Kirby. He didn’t know his branded attack was the name of Kirby’s home. Being cool with Kirby is the least he could do for him. Kirby still gets a bit confused when Mr. Sandman talks about putting someone to sleep or his home. Overall, they’re cool!
Little Mac…
“Never heard Mac…name a lil…fa..mil..liar…”
Doc Louis!
Literally Kirby’s dad. Kirby is literally Doc’s child. Doc treats Kirby like how he’s treated Mac when he was still there, and Kirby is like the Little Mac that Doc has been missing. Doc has tried to do an eating competition with Kirby, and keeps losing. After every fight, (or just for fun,) Kirby and Doc go out and eat a bunch of chocolate flavored pastries until they’re (Doc) full.
Carmen!
“Mi niña, mi hija! (My girl, my daughter!)” Despite others telling Carmen Kirby is a boy because he’s a boxer and such, Carmen sees Kirby like the daughter she’s never had! Whenever Kirby visits, Carmen is just super happy!
The Ref.
Kirby tries to be friendly towards the Ref, but he just doesn’t talk to him enough. The Ref honestly dislikes any boxer. They’re all crazy and he doesn’t get paid enough to deal with their shenanigans.
I wasn’t able to get boops working last time, but now it’s working.

I have recently been writing a Kirby fanfic and I’ve written 2 parts so far. Since I feel like it’s more than enough for now, I will be posting part 1 in a week or so.
I’ll transition it to AO3 if the fic does well, or if I’m almost done. Thank you for reading (if you did), and I’ll post it in a day or so
(OOOOOOHHH I HOPE YOU GUYS WEREN'T WAITING FOR TOO LONG!! This Chapter is 1,000% worth the wait! (ALSO. There’s a panic attack in this chapter. Though the panic attack is minor, I don’t wanna take any chances not warning you. Enjoy reading!
The storm was now a light drizzle. Everything was peaceful, except for the two figures marching toward Castle Dedede.
Waddle Doo was increasingly nervous the closer he got. He ran away from Castle Dedede to be back with Kracko, his true king. Waddle Doo was never a real Waddle Dee, just a leader to make sure they stayed in line.
Now he was filled with anxiety. The king takes treason VERY seriously. It’s like he knew that word the day he came out of the stars, or wherever he was from. Tap tap! “H-huh-?” Waddle Doo snapped back to reality. Kracko looked at Waddle Doo expectingly, then back at the large drawbridge.
“Oh! The drawbridge-?” Kracko nodded. He slowly lifted a finger, ready to strike the bridge down by force. “N-no master!” Kracko seized. “We’ll make a ton of noise if we go this way…we should come in through the back.” Kracko looked at Waddle Doo like he had two heads. Waddle Doo looked away, embarrassed. “No master…the moat is only for show…there’s no water in the back.” Kracko looked at Waddle Doo, wide eyed. “No water.” What kind of castle DIDN'T have water...??
Waddle Doo and Kracko walked to the backside of the castle and he was right! There was no water…weird… “The king didn’t really make the most..intellectual decisions…” Waddle Doo said, quietly opening the door and looking for any guards. This area was never watched, but he just wanted to be sure. “Clear…” Waddle Doo whispered, and Kracko followed behind.
The castle hallways in the back was always a bit cold, but one he got to the center, it was warmer. Bright lights lit up the hallways, and the soft and smooth red carpet led the one eyed duo down the hallways. They seemed to be having no luck however. Kirby was nowhere to be found. Maybe Kracko saw the Waddle Dees carrying them off somewhere else…he began to doubt maybe-
A loud shout echoed through the halls. Kracko jumped, tripping and falling onto Waddle Doo. “Ack-! Master- y-you’re heavy-!” Waddle Doo strained. Kracko got up, dusting himself from the fall. While Waddle Doo was gasping for air, Kracko walked off. He recognized that voice. That cheer. That happiness he envied for. It was…
“Kirby…!!” Bandana Dee whined. “You need to have these vitamins..!!” Kirby turned away like a toddler. “Gummies…” Kirby said, with a face that looked like they lost their little robot puppy. “We have yet to get more gummies Kirby…I’m sorry…” Kirby pondered, and then put up a pleading little act. “Gummies…?” Kirby pleaded. Bandana Dee chuckled. “Pleading won’t make them come any quicker Kirby…” They frowned. “Aw…”
Their happiness made Kracko claw at the wall. Kirby looks so happy..why can’t he be that happy? It’s not fair!
Kracko was about to march right in there but was being tugged on. It was Waddle Doo! “N-no master Kracko..!” He whispered. “Not yet..! We should do it while Kirby’s alone..!!” Kracko seized. He didn’t really like waiting, but if it meant getting rid of Kirby, he’d do anything.
Kirby finally gulped down the vitamins, after much resistance. “Bleh..” They exaggerated. Bandana Dee rolled his eyes and chuckled. “I never knew there was a food you wouldn’t eat..” Kirby giggled. Kirby then made a face that meant business, which caught Bandana off guard. “W-wanya..?” He questioned, intimidated. “Toomato?” Kirby raised an eyebrow.
Bandana laughed. “S-sure Kirby..let me just make sure you’re able to get up..” Bandana Dee took one of Kirby’s hands. “Stand?” Kirby moved the blacker off of them and stood up. Their legs shook a little bit, since they were lying down for so long. “Mhn-! Oh..?” Kirby loosened up. He can stand! “Yayy!!” Kirby did a little dance with Bandana. “Woah! Haha- Kirby…!!” They both laughed together like two little kids.
Kracko could explode from how angry he was. How come he got to be so happy? It’s not fair!! Kracko clawed at the wall he was hiding behind, nearly giving him a cramp in his hand. “Master Kracko…” Waddle Doo tried to calm Kracko down, but instead got the back of his head grabbed. That really hurt! Waddle Doo yelped. “Gah—!” The grab caught him off guard, and when Waddle Doo is caught off guard, he shoots a ball of lightning from his eye. It was no different here, and it was uncontrollable. The lightning ball quickly shot out and threw a bed into the air with a devastating BOOM!!! “AH!!” “WANYA!?” Kirby and Bandana Dee panicked.
Where did that come from!? “AH!” “W-WANYA-!!” Kirby and Bandana Dee ducked under a bed. “Who- wa- who was that..!?” Bandana Dee gasped. “Dunno…!” Kirby panicked. Both Kirby and Bandana Dee looked at each other, and nodded. Kirby peeked up to see who attacked, and Bandana Dee used the Sparking Stars to summon a spear for him. Kirby quickly dived back down, panic all over their face. “Wanya-? Who’s there..? What’s wro-”
“Kracko..!!” Kirby said. “WHAT!? H-how did he get here…!?” “Dunno!!” More dust cleared up, and a purple hue shined above Kirby and Bandana Dee’s heads. The color nearly drained from their faces when they saw the jagged lightning bolt lodged into a wall just a foot or less over their heads.
“AH! Bandana!?” King Dedede recognized that scream. Not only was it Bandana, it was pure distress. Dedede looked over his balcony, looking down at Whispy Woods. The Dees were celebrating, throwing their sparkling stars into the sky. They’d take a while until they all returned. Perfect.
That’s enough time to clobber that there intruder! King Dedede turned around and pulled out his hammer, dashing towards the screams.
“S-stay back..! Don’t hurt Kirby…!!” Banana Dee pointed his spear at Kracko, but got blasted back by Waddle Doo. “WANYAAA-!!!” “Banana!!” Kirby caught Bandana who was tumbling towards a wall. “S-stop…!” Kirby yelled. Just why was this all happening? All Kirby wanted to do was sleep..Kracko got even closer. It was…unfair to sneak up on Kirby while he was down, but this would all be worth it. The ends shall justify the means.
“GET OUTTA MY CASTLEEEE!!!” With a mighty swing of his hammer, Dedede sent Kracko hurling away.
“Dede!!” Kirby exclaimed.
“Great King…!!” Bandana said with tears in his eyes, relieved.
“Sire…!?” Waddle Doo instinctively yelped. This caught him off guard!
“F-Former Waddle Doo-!?” Bandana peeked over the bed, and so did Kirby. It was Waddle Doo! “Doo!!” Kirby called. Waddle Doo couldn’t feel any more uneasy. This is horrible! What if he gets wanted posters plastered all over Cappytown? What will the Cappies think!? He shrieked behind the wall he before hid with Kracko. This couldn’t be happening..he wanted to disappear. He felt like he was losing his breath under all of the pressure…
King Dedede was beyond upset. Who did this cloud think it was!? “Ya stormed into my castle!!” Dedede lunged at Kracko and lifted him up. Upon dropping him, Dedede used his hammer to slam Kracko back into another wall. “Hurt MY Waddle Dees!!” Kracko narrowly dodged the hammer aimed towards his face. “And now ya tryna fight me!!!” Dedede slammed his hammer down again, in another attempt to pound Kracko’s face in, but missed.
Kracko dodged and took the chance to trip Dedede. While the king was on the ground, Kracko summoned a little cloud. By stomping on the cloud, it created a mini hailstorm. Little icicles scratched up Dedede’s face and put holes in his gloves, agitating him. While Dedede was distracted, Kracko created another cloud and used it to ram into Dedede. Kracko made yet another cloud to hail onto Dedede, but this cloud was..different…
It let out twice as much hail, but only lasted a second. Kirby, realizing there was no more pounding, took a look. Kracko looked sickly…purple!? Kracko loosened up, trying to summon another hail cloud, but failed due to his little consciousness. What was going on…? Kracko tried to retreat, but fell over. Everything was blurry and fading. Why is this happening…?
Dedede noticed Kracko’s horrible state, and took advantage of it. Dedede attached his hammer to his back, and backhand slapped Kracko with as much force possible. Kracko folded like a piece of paper, and lost consciousness.
Kirby and Bandana Dee took a peek. “Over..?” Kirby anxiously whispered. “Wanya…” Bandana Dee quivered. “'parently so.” Dedede took a deep breath. “WHAT IS GOIN’ ONNNN!?” He kicked Kracko’s unconscious body out of spite. “'M ready to go hit the hay.” Dedede mumbled. Kirby and Bandana Dee walked out from behind the bed. “Thank you so much Great King! Y-you can head back to bed now..just…what to we do with..um…”
“Kracko.” Kirby said, knelt over his unconscious body. “Y-yeah. Him.” Bandana Dee finished. “Eh, do whatever.” The king said dismissively. “I say put ‘im in the dungeon-” “No!” Kirby shouted, cutting the king off. “Help…” Kirby looked at Kracko pitifully.
Kirby didn’t fully grasp that Kracko wanted their head, but Kirby didn’t want to just throw him out like that! Abandonment is sad and lonely, and Kirby hated sadness and loneliness. “Nova…” The king was cranky. He just wanted to go back to sleep now, as the sudden wake up from the fire is getting back to him. “Fine, fine. Stay. Do whatever! Just…don’t make a big ol’ racket. It’s late…” The king caved.
“G-Great King…” Bandana started, but Dedede cut him off. “Wake up the other Dees for their night shift, and make sure this here nursery gets a good cleanin’. Understood?” Bandana Dee saluted. “Yes Great King! I won’t let you down!” “Good. The castle’s all yours for now.” King Dedede waked off to his room. More importantly, his comfy king-sized bed.
Bandana turned toward Kirby and began jumping for joy. “WAWAWAAA!! THE GREAT KING LEFT ME IN CHARGE OF THE CASTLEEE!!” Kirby nearly feel over…that was kinda loud... “Yayy..!” Kirby gave him a little applause, though they didn’t understand what was so special about it.
Kirby turned towards Kracko. They didn’t know why Kracko did what he did, but Kracko seemed really hurt… “Idea!”
Kirby ran over to where all of the medical supplies is. “Kirby-? What are you looking for? Wanya..?” Bandana asked.
“Bility!” Kirby replied.
“A copy ability..? Why??”
“Help-!” Kirby answered, grabbing a stethescope and absorbing it. Before Bandana Dee knew what Kirby was doing, a white coat draped down to their feet, and sleeves covered their hands. Little circular glasses appeared on his face, and a headlamp was tied by a big blue band. It was Dr. Kirby!
Bandana Dee really dislikes that ability. Bandana Dee unknowingly gave Kirby a disappointed stare.
“Who patient?” Dr. Kirby asked. Bandana Dee pointed to Kracko’s unconscious body. Kirby lugged Kracko’s big body over them with ease, placing him nicely on the bed. “Hmmmm…” Dr. Kirby mumbled. “H-how are you gonna..um…‘help’..him Kirby..?” Bandana as- “Dr. Kaabi.” Dr. Kirby corrected. Bandana Dee’s face dropped. “R-right.”
Dr. Kirby took a stepping stool and got a closer look at Kracko. “Mmmm..” Dr. Kirby felt his head, and took out a little clipboard and scribbled things down. “Hot…” Dr. Kirby looked at Kracko, who was shaking. “Mm..jiggy.” Scribble scribble. Dr. Kirby fixed their glasses, and looked at his torso. Dr Kirby poked around until Kracko winced when Dr. Kirby poked a certain area. That must be where Dedede hit Kracko with his hammer, it’ll leave a mark. Scribble scribble. “Boo boo.”
Kirby was about to put the clipboard away until he got one more look at Kracko. Something was wrong. Kracko was.. “Purple…?”

Some extra notes - Dedede got a new redededesign! I really wanted to shred away from majority of his human features, and give him one animal feature. - I'm gonna need more time to get this on Ao3 (If I said I was gonna do that. I can't quite remember...) - I might start posting daily doodles on little index cards, or post SOMETHING that'll be continuous.
