Happy Waddle Dee Wednesday!

I've had this blog forever but mostly lurked to view art. Now I'm starting this new series on Instagram, but I thought I'd try posting over here too since this is technically my first art site.

Hope you enjoy!

[starmagnets]

here’s all of the askbox trick or treating doodles all together!

[magister-magolor]

Everyone in the Kirby series is so friend shaped! With the exceptions of Magolor and Kirby, who would you say is the most friend shaped?

Oh! That's a fun question. Thanks for sending it along!

Good choice excluding Magolor and Kirby. Otherwise they'd be 1st and 2nd place respectively.

As for other characters... Pretty much everyone is sure friend shaped... Hm...

This might seem odd, but I'm giving the number 1 spot out of everyone else to Wise Waddle Dee! So adorable and friendly looking, I love his glasses and hat. When I see him I just want to go over there myself and sit down with him for a while!

I'll give Bandana Waddle Dee number 2. He's adorable, but he doesn't have cute little glasses. So he's slightly less friend shaped.

Number 3 is hard... I'm giving it to Rick! He's just such a cute cartoony hamster, especially when he sleeps. Hamsters are friends, so he doesn't really need much explanation!

Gooey gets number 4! He's really cute, just more simple and slightly less so than those above him. He's certainly goofy and very friend-like, though.

I'll give Elfilin number 5. He's certainly very cute, but he just doesn't do it for me the same way as the ones above him, as much as I love the little dude! His big ears and cute little face definitely make him friend shaped, though.

There you go. My top 7 most friend shaped Kirby characters! (And top 5 that aren't Magolor or Kirby, hee hee.)

As before, anyone is more than welcome to ask me questions about my opinions and thoughts on anything Kirby!

Kirby and the Forgotten Land: Run Into the New World! Chapter ☆2: Must Find the Waddle Dees!

The tunnel was dug into a hill as if carved in. The trio, taking careful note of their surroundings, stepped into the dark tunnel. Littering the place were various construction tools and signboards written in a language they had never seen before, all clearly neglected. It seemed they had been abandoned a long time ago, as everything looked old.

The cries of the Waddle Dees could be heard coming from inside. Mixed with them were familiar growls that could be heard coming from all around the place.

“Grrrr~!!!”

“There are Awoofies here!” Elfilin shouted. “Be careful!”

“Got it!”

Bandana Waddle Dee readied his spear and looked around. Upon noticing Kirby and co.’s intrusion, the Awoofies came in one by one to attack.

“Oh, no you don’t!!”

Although Kirby didn’t have a Copy Ability at the moment, the Awoofies weren’t a problem, they could be taken care of even in his face-without-makeup form.

Bandana Waddle Dee bravely brandished his spear and made the Awoofies scatter. Elfilin’s stared in awe.

“You two are really strong! I hadn’t known Bandana was this powerful!”

“Being with Kirby brings out my strength,” Bandana Waddle Dee said bashfully. “C’mon, let’s keep going and rescue everyone!”

“Okie dokie! We’ve gotten closer to the voices!”

The three continued toward the sound of the Waddle Dees’ cries. However, along the way, they encountered a tall wall.

“What the-? Is this a dead end?...”

“Kirby, look up. It looks like if we climb our way up there, we’ll be able to go on.”

Just as Bandana Waddle Dee said, a door could be seen at the top of the wall. It was much too high up to get there by hovering 

“What are we gonna do?...”

Once he pondered it, Elfilin said:

“Kirby, look over there: there’s a staircase! Bring it over here, then we’ll be able to climb up!”

Elfilin had found a staircase, one that seemed like the kind used at construction sites. Surely, if they used that, they would be able to reach the door.

The three attempted to work together to push it to underneath where the door was, but even their combined strength just wasn’t enough, the staircase was much too heavy. Try as hard as they might ‘til they were red in the face, it didn’t move an inch.

“It won’t budge...” Bandana Waddle Dee said, out of breath, “I think we’ll have to come up with another solution...”

“Hmm...”

Kirby thought about it, when, all of a sudden, a bright idea lit up in his head.

“I’ve got it! If I could fit that whole car into my mouth, wonder if I can fit other things in there too???”

“Huh? Did you say fit it into your mouth?”

“STAIRS MOUTH time! Watch me!”

Kirby turned to face the staircase, mustered up all the strength that he could and sucked in the air.  

Whooooosh!!

The heavy staircase rattled as it finally moved, lightly floating in the air.

“...Wha-?!”

Bandana Waddle Dee and Elfilin’s eyes widened. 

The staircase, hit by Kirby’s inhale, came flying right toward Kirby!”

Bandana Waddle Dee screamed:

“Kirby, look out! Get out of the way!”

However, Kirby continued to inhale without worry.

And, as Kirby’s mouth stretched open wider than one would think possible- he took the entire staircase into his mouth.

Bandana Waddle Dee went white as a sheet, and ran up to Kirby, who had taken the shape of the staircase.

“Kirby!! Are you alright!?! Speak to me!”

With the stairs stuffed in his mouth, Kirby was unable to talk, but he jumped up and down lightly.

Bandana Waddle Dee, who had tears full of worry in his eyes, was dumbfounded.

“Kirby, you aren’t hurt?

Instead of responding, Kirby slowly and shakily moved forward. Once he got directly under the door, with great strength, he spat the staircase right back out.

The same staircase that wasn’t moved by the three of them combined, had finally moved right where they needed it to be.

“Haahh! There, perfect!”

Satisfied, Kirby looked up at the stairs. Now they could get up the wall to where the door is. 

“Woah, Kirby, that was AWESOME!” Elfilin shouted while flying around. “I didn’t know you could do something like that!”

“Well that was a shock...” Bandana Waddle Dee said, flustered, “that’s the first time I’ve seen you do this. I’m guessing this was the new ability you were talking about earlier...”

Kirby nodded.

“Yup! I can shove big things in my mouth, and my body’ll stretch around them, and then I take the same shape as whatever’s in my mouth!”

“You weren’t able to do this back in Dream Land?”

“Inside that mysterious vortex, my body got all stretched around,” Kirby said, thinking back to his experience in the vortex, “I got all twisted up in there. But it didn’t really hurt that much. I wonder if the vortex’s power made my body, like, super extra stretchy or something.”

“It’s a really cool power... but you need to make sure not to use it too much, Kirby. If you stretch your body out too much, you might have a hard time getting it back to its original shape.”

"I’m sure I’ll be a-okay, don’t worry! Now, c’mon, let’s get a move on!”

The trio, with Kirby at the lead, climbed up the stairs.

~

The Waddle Dees were being held in the innermost parts of the tunnel. There were three of them. Crammed inside a cage, surrounded and guarded by several Awoofies. 

“Wa... wa-wa... Great King...”

“Senior... *hic* *hic* ...senior Bandana...”

The Waddle Dees’ sobs echoed around. At times, the Awoofies would growl at them to shut them up, but the Waddle Dees would keep crying.

Peeping from behind cover concealing them from sight, Kirby and his friends looked at each other and nodded.

The first to jump out was Bandana Waddle Dee.

Spear readied, he yelled loudly:

“Everyone, we’re here to help!!”

Running in as well, Kirby shouted:

��Let’s go!! Chaaaaaarge!!!” 

Elfilin, who lacked the power to fight, supported them from the sidelines:

“You can do it, Bandana! You too, Kirby!”

Such a sudden attack caught the Awoofies completely off-guard. They tried to pounce, but against Kirby and co. they couldn’t put up a fight.

*Whine* ...!”

Letting out pitiful cries, they fled the scene.

The Waddle Dees inside the cage cheered:

“Hooray, senior Bandana! Elfilin!”

“And- Kirby?? When did you get here????”

Bandana Waddle Dee opened the cage door.

“We’ll explain later! C’mon, go! We need to get out of here before they can get backup!”

The Waddle Dees hopped out of the cage. They were all about to run off together before one Waddle Dee spoke up:

“Wait just one moment please, senior Bandana!”

“Huh? What’s the matter, Wise?”

The Waddle Dee referred to as Wise was a little different from the other Waddle Dees. He had what looked like an academic cap on his head, and he was wearing glasses.

“Well,” Wise Waddle Dee said while adjusting his glasses, “I believe that there is something important hidden behind the room divider.”

“What?”

 “I noticed it while I was observing the behavior of the Awoofies. The whole time while they wee fighting, they were worried about the room divider. It seemed as if they were guarding some kind of treasure behind there.”

Bandana Waddle Dee nodded.

“Coming from Wise, it has to be true. We should investigate.”

“Umm, so, your name’s Wise?” Kirby asked, wondering. 

“Indeed, Kirby. Pleasure to make your acquaintance, now,” Wise Waddle Dee said while nodding his head. “I’ve always been a fan of reading, but after coming to this world, I’ve had much more time to think, and gradually my head has become clear. Everyone started calling me Wise after that.”

“Really? That’s so cool! Nice to meet you, Wise!”

“I should be saying that to you!”

While the two were talking, Bandana Waddle Dee and Elfilin peeked behind the room divider.

“Nope, no treasure,” Elfilin said, “just a hat.”

However, Bandana Waddle Dee exclaimed:

“This hat, no way...!”

Bandana Waddle Dee gently picked up the hat and brought it over to Kirby.

“Is this-!”

Kirby and Bandana Waddle Dee exchanged looks and nodded.

“This hat looks just like the Sword Ability’s hat.”

“Would you mind sucking it up, Kirby?”

“Gotcha!”

Kirby began sucking in the air, sending the hat flying up and into his mouth. 

In an instant, Kirby transformed. In his right hand, he was carrying a big sword. Happily, Kirby swung it around in the air.

“Yup! That’s the Sword Ability alright!”

Elfilin flew around in surprise.

“What’s going on??? Kirby, where did that sword come from????”

Bandana Waddle Dee explained with a big smile:

“This is the first time you’ve seen it, Elfilin. This is Kirby’s strange power, his Copy Ability.”

“Wowie...!”

Elfilin wiggled his big ears with excitement. 

“Kirby really is the coolest! First he turns himself into a staircase, then he pulls a sword out of nowhere- I wonder what else he can do!”

“But, why in the world would this be left here?”

Bandana Waddle Dee was stumped. Wise Waddle Dee raised his hands and said:

“This hat is remarkably similar to the Copy Ability hats on Pop Star.”

“Huh? And what about it?”

“In this world, an advanced civilization once flourished. Perhaps this Copy Ability hat was brought here by some means, and this star’s advanced civilization studied it to see if they could use it...”

Wise Waddle Dee explained with pride, but Kirby wasn’t really listening. Cheerily holding his sword up high, he shouted:

“If I can use Copy Abilities here, we have nothing to fear from the likes of the Beast Pack. C’mon, let’s go save the Waddle Dees!”

Bandana Waddle Dee nodded, before asking the Waddle Dees:

“Do you guys have any idea where they’ve been taking everyone?”

“I think they were heading further up north.”

“Of course, I knew that shopping mall seemed sketchy. Let’s go!”

“Well then, we should probably head back to town and wait for everyone else to return,” Wise Waddle Dee said. Upon hearing this, Bandana Waddle Dee’s expression turned sad:

“Wise... our town, it’s... there’s nothing left...”

“Yes, that’s exactly why. We’ll have that town restored exactly to the way int was before!”

Wise Waddle Dee spoke with pride, holding up a fist.

“We’ll fix up the debris, and rebuild our delightful cafe and lovely park. I wish to  create a place where Great King Dedede can rest once we find him, for however long we are here!”

The other Waddle Dees’ faces all lit up.

“That’s a wonderful idea! Just as we’d expect from you, Wise!”

“The town is in ruins right now, our Great King can’t possibly take a nap in a place like that!”

Bandana Waddle Dee smiled and nodded.

“Good idea, everyone! Well then, we’ll leave the town to you three. It’s not going to be easy, but please try you best,”

“Yes, of course!”

Bandana Waddle Dee turned to Elfilin. 

“Elfilin, go back to the town with the others.”

“Wha-?!”

Elfilin shook his head.

“But why?? I should be going with you and Kirby!”

“Most likely there’s going to be much stronger enemies than the Awoofies up ahead. It’s too dangerous-”

“I’M GOING!!” Elfilin asserted with a serious face. “I just want to be useful. I’m always being saved by the Waddle Dees, now I want to return the favor, in any way I can!”

“Elfilin...”

Bandana Waddle Dee was astonished. 

“You’re right, let’s go together,” Kirby said with a smile. “It’ll be way more fun with Elfilin around.”

Bandana Waddle Dee, as if captivated by Kirby’s carefree smile, laughed.

“Understood. The three of us will go together. Now, let’s go find all the Waddle Dees and the Great King!”

“Alright!”

Kirby and co. bid farewell to the three Waddle Dees returning to the town, hop on the Warp Star, and continue on further north.

Okay, this has just been on my mind for a while actually... Got no clue if this has been asked before but

HOW THE FK DO SOME OF YOU HAVE THE MELTY LIP SKIN THINGY STILL!

Like- I don't care about the ones who don't, I want answers for the ones who do. Why? I mean, it doesn't make much sense to me like- you're free from the master crown's control, you got your bodies. What were you born with a fked up lil or smth?

I just wanna know- why-

💙: "I just guess it was another thing from the crown. Because this lip thingy wasn't there before!! Got scared shitless when I noticed it the first time. Frisk hand to squeeze my hand to get me to stop having traumatic flashbacks."

🍏: "Yeah, I still have mine years later. And I can confirm that it's from being corrupted by the crown. I've been thinking about getting surgery to remove it, but I've been holding off for so long that I basically can't. Because the whole 'secret identity' shtick I got going on now."

🚔: "Mine's a bit thinner for some reason. Not sure why. I think it must've been a style choice by whoever or whatever made me look like that Rayman guy."

👑: "Oakley got rid of mine the first day I arrived at the castle. He didn't want anything from his corruption staying with me as a part of his deal. Another way of trying to prove his loyalty to me at the time."

🦋: "Lucky! Having a melted lip is hard to eat with when you forget that it exists cuz you can't look in the mirror BECAUSE YOU'RE BLIND AF!!!"

🩸: "I think mine disappeared because of the undying ritual I did on myself. But it left an annoying ugly scar instead, so I'm not sure if that counts as an upgrade."

🎩: "Wait.... ALL OF YOU GUYS HAVE MOUTHS???" ("0 0)

Hey, Susie! May I ask what your opinion on Kirby and the gang are? (And perhaps Magolor?)

"Ooh! Interesting! They're great friends to have!"

"King Dedede's real cool! Not only is he the strongest organism on Popstar but, asides from Sir Meta Knight, he's real smart too. He's the only person whom can intellectually and ethically challenge me while still being fun! He even indulges me on my many pet projects and ideas! Surprisingly being from a underdeveloped hicktown of a planet the king is on the up and up of many modern things and technologies! He's a fellow engineer, building his own automatons, machinery, and more! We talk about our shared many hobbies and interests when I come to Popstar and he outsources his technology from my company frequently so we are mutually beneficial to each other! He's like a super-duper cool older brother that my father refused to give me."

"I owe my life to Pinky! He saved my ass and by proxy my company too! Kirby's always fun to hang around if I have nothing better to do! However, I can't expect him to conversate about anything more than surface level and yet he provides solid advice even if it may be a little too blunt. Kirby's probably the most reliable trustworthy friend I have!"

"Bandana Waddle Dee, or 'Bandee' is alright! His pessimism and servile nature can be annoying but I can look past it because of his associates. I am most certain he does not trust me."

"Meta Knight and I are on talking terms now! At first, he annoyed me with his pitying gazes after the event but I understand that the pity he feels for me is a natural response so I do not care anymore. I find Sir Meta Knight exceptional and very respectable as a fellow intellectual, in fact we share many intellectual pursuits and ideological ideals. In fact, the two of us are working to help reform and advance Dream Land's level of technology. In spite of this however, I do not respect how much he lets his personal, backwards traditional values interfere with his true potential. Ethics and all of that. This causes us to butt-heads many times. It does not help that he gets very angry easy too which becomes a problem if I do not choose my words correctly. He's fun to talk with about more serious and thought provoking topics, however that is all he is good for communication wise! If it's not about machinery, old boring books, weapons, Pop Star's interplanetary defense, Dream Land's politics, justice or anything in line with those things he doesn't really know how to respond and goes flat. He can't talk about fun things at all! He could use a class in idle chatter, I took one and it's very helpful! He's cute too!"

[The Forgotten Land Roleswap: Chapter Two, 36]

Author's Note: I am operating under a theory that Waddle Dees find their own names when they learn what skill they want to specialize in or adopt a special trait that distinguishes them from other Dees. From then on, they are referred to by a nickname derived from their found name. They often end with a double "e" but not always.

For example, Wise Waddle Dee just wants to be called "Wise." :P

Bandana Waddle Dee = "Bandee"

Blacksmith Waddle Dee = "Smittee" (Since I didn't want to call him his canon name of Weapons-Shop Waddle Dee in this story simply because I don't like it lol. The artistic liberty is there and I'm taking it!!)

TL;DR: All Dees with jobs/hats have names. :3
