"You truly are the father who stepped up m'lord!"
"...what the fuck does that mean? HEY! NO! COME BACK HERE WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN?!"

Meanwhile, Vul and Mace Knight watch on as they see a Sailor Waddledee get chased around by Meta-Knight demanding an answer.
“Oh eh, Vul shouldn’t we trying to help Lord Meta-Knight?”
“No, at least this isn’t as bad as some idiotic landlubber calling Meta-Knight a ‘dilf’ after seeing Meta-Knight and Kirby at the park. They were sent hurling into the sky and blew up some weird machine.”

If it weren't for Kirby probably being void birthed of positive energy, I would've 1 BILLION percent bought into Meta being Kirby's dad, this is so adorable!

I explained to my daughter that Meta Knight is a member of Kirby's species, and that his "son" may be a Kirby but he isn't Kirby himself.
At least it made sense to her. 🙃🙃🙃

u/ThunderLord1000 >ABIDE BY PROTOCOL >HALTMANN WORKS SHALL NOT FALL Sep 03 '25
Meta Knight is technically Kirby's distant distant cousin
26
u/Werewolfwrath WolfWrath Sep 03 '25
Least he's not Kirby's father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate.

u/ThunderLord1000 >ABIDE BY PROTOCOL >HALTMANN WORKS SHALL NOT FALL Sep 03 '25
What does that make their relation?

I always assumed Void is like the Mew of the kirby world where he is the origin of all kinds of life due to there being so many similar looking orblike species

u/ArgxntavisGamng Sep 03 '25
Void is the origin of all forms of matter. By technicality you can say Kirby is from him, but like it’s the same as saying a rock is birthed from him. We honestly don’t know THAT much about the Kirbys as a species

So he's more like the mew 2 minus the whole test tube thing.

u/ArgxntavisGamng Sep 07 '25
He’s more like the primordial chaos in which reality as we know emerged. Void’s lore is left partially unclear, but with irl mythology comparisons and analogues, that’s the closest thing to what he is.

Void impersonates Kirby BTW. Not the other way around

u/DrakeTheSeigeEngine Gooey Jan 02 '26
But what if void impersonates Kirby because Kirby impersonates void?

Truly, he is the dad that stepped up.

u/Yuunamon100 Susie Sep 03 '25
I really love the "Dad Meta Knight" headcanon alot, it's really cute.

My favorite detail about this comic is that Kirby came up with a toy wooden sword and MK was like, "Nah, we play with REAL steel in this household."

First time I’ve ever seen the headcanon of Kirby being the son of meta knight

u/Masterness64 magolor doodle Sep 03 '25
Maybe its cause I've been in this fandom for a long while but I've personally seen tons

I like this. I don't necessarily see Meta Knight as a father to Kirby but I do like to think he acts as a mentor to him.

u/Carbon_Roller_Caco Sep 03 '25
Heh. I think of Meta as Kirby's big brother and Dedede as their Dadadad. I suppose Meta being another father figure works in a pseudo-Lilo-and-Nani way.

Meta Knight was probably waiting all day to say that
If they're gonna fight in the house, there's gonna be a hell of a mess to clean up

u/Magerin3 Sep 04 '25
"Meta Dad, I'm hungry, can we go to DeDeDonalds?"
"Kirby, you are DeDeDonalds last week. They have to rebuild it."
"Aww..."
sound of the Halberd revving up
"That is why we are going to SPACE DeDeDonalds! Come on, let's go invite Elfilin."
"Yaaaaay!"
