Summary:
After Meta Knight’s failed attempt to take over Dreamland and King Dedede’s questionable leadership, Kirby decides to put an end to this fragile peace by properly introducing the two to each other!
It should be fine, right?
(Or: a king and a knight foster an unexpected relationship.)
“You of all people cannot make me. We are amiable, but do not think for a second this means you can order me around as though I am one of your lowly subjects.”
“Yeah, I can’t,” Dedede readily agrees, which only further rouses Meta’s suspicion.
“...But we both know someone who can.”
“Oh, I dare, alright.” Dedede rises to his feet, the spark in his eyes inherently threatening. “Since not even yer own crew can get you to listen, knowin’ how ya are.”
Meta retrieves his mask, but has yet to put it on. He shivers, knowing the inevitable is upon him, and he has no real rebuttals. None that would sway the man in front of him, anyway. “Dedede…”
“Just for one day, Meta. Besides, hey, ya might pick up somethin’ from him. Would do ya a lotta good to get that stick outta yer ass at times, eh?”
Meta’s eye twitches. “Be careful before I shove it up yours.”
and so, the metadede fic continues!
