KIRBY'S DREAMLAND 3 ON THE SUPER NINTENDO ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM!!!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAY IM SO STOKED ABT THIS DRAWING SERIES (it is going to take me a million years to finish and be much longer than KDL2 just a warning LOL)!!!! KDL3 is one of my favorite Kirby games, I played it all the time as a kid! Tbf a lot of Kirby games are my favorite. But this is probably my favorite OLD Kirby game! It's missing a lot of modern Kirby conventions, but I still love it so much, it's so cozy and warm.

In my gijinka AU timeline it's set about a year after Star Stacker, so Kirby is now 13. I dunno if I set ages for the original Animal Friends ngl. I think Coo's in his early 50's, Kine's in his early 40's, and Rick's in his mid 20's. ALSO I finally found out what the nonbinary equivalent to nephew/niece is!! It's nibling!! Kirby is Rick, Coo, and Kine's honorary nibling!

I will get into Acro and Ado's context in this gijinka universe during their respective boss encounters, but for now I CAN tell you about the new generation of Animal Friends! I described them on instagram as "extended found family"-- they're loosely connected to the original 3 Animal Friends in the sense that they know them well, but they're brought closer together through knowing Kirby!

Nago is from the Iceberg and knows Rick well because he often visits the Iceberg to improve his climbing skills. I imagine that he and Kirby might 'click' because Nago is trans and Kirby is nonbinary? Nago's a teenager/young adult, but is the oldest of the 3 new Animal Friends. He's a werecat and can turn into a giant calico cat whenever he feels like it! So I guess he and Rick probably would be friends since they're very alike?

Chuchu is from Ripple Field, so she and Kine have met before! Kine has told her many stories about his adventures as a Dark Matter hunter on the surface world, though Chuchu finds herself most interested in his friend Kirby! She thinks Kirby is cute and wants to date him. Kirby has never dated anyone in his entire life and has no idea what romance is like! Chuchu is a flapjack octopus mermaid with mild transformation abilities-- she doesn't have a fully human form like Kine does and is instead half human half octopus in her default form, but fully octopus while transformed. Chuchu is a year older than Kirby.

Pitch is a harpy like Coo, but he's just a lost baby essentially. He's only 4 years old! For now Coo is looking after him since there aren't many other harpies in Dreamland (much less any who'd want to care for Pitch) but they both really want to find Pitch's mother. Pitch sees Kirby as an older brother and likes to shadow him. Unlike Coo, Pitch shrinks when he transforms and turns into a tiny bird you can fit in the palm of your hand! I think he is a shima enaga specifically. A colorful one I guess. They can't be green irl lol.

ALSO I decided to reveal Zero extra early because honestly I don't like that they're just, at the end of the game only! And I like their design a lot. I've drawn them before. I think they deserve a bit more limelight! So I drew them in 2 panels here.

ALSO ALSO (oh my god this post is so long already) thank you everyone for blowing up my Gryll post!! glad 2 see there r so many Gryll enjoyers on here :)

she was born in cuba, but moved to the united states when she was eight!!! she is an only child, n her parents were pretty poor and then coming to america ended up completely seperating them. they got a divorce not too long after the move after their citizenships were finalized, and her mom ended up marrying this rich bank broker and moved to upstate new york. her dad stayed in georgia, n jasmine wanted to stay with him, but her mom basically forced her 2 go with her. she didn’t get to see her dad at all, but called him everyday. then it ended up being a call a week, a call a month, and then ended up usually only having a christmas call. um she didnt have a relationship with her stepdad at all bc he didnt care for her bc all he saw was some old baggage from his new wife’s old marriage when he looked at her rip. her mom ended up changing when she got with him, which resulted in her and her mom literally never talking. when she was fifteen she called her dad on christmas and he didnt pick up, so she went to surprise him, and ended up finding the house he lived in to be unoccupied and had been for months. when she told her mom abt it her mom was all like “he gonna be ok he probably just with some friends” but then after a while her mother then filed a missing person’s report that ended up going cold. after all that, her mom n step dad constantly took vacations n shit n left jasmine with her stepaunt who HATED! HER! so when jasmine turned 18 she took all the money n valuable shit she could find n hauled ass to l.a. bc why tha fuck not!!!! n her mom didnt care really ig cause she didnt try to contact her or call the police so i mean u win some u lose some. ummm when she moved to la she ended up working 3 jobs to pay for her shitty ass apartment???? rip. anyways when shit went down she stayed with a group of friends on the outskirts of l.a. and they heard a person statically talk abt cheyenne so she was like u guys lets go here!!!! they said lol no thanks!!! then 2 weeks later the camp got overrun and all jasmine had was herself, a knife, n a pistol she had no idea how to operate.
