[xxkillerkupidxx]

Hi. Have some unmasked Meta Knight! :D

I have this little headcannon that Meta Knight has fangs so that’s why he has teeth lol

Kinda cursed if you think about it but I prefer not to ponder on it.

Random Hc: Unmasked Meta-Knights: I've been thinking about them

Also Unmasked Blade & Sword:

"Explaination" (sort of(??) under the cut ig?

-Axe: The least original one Ik this concept have been used by a lot of others but I still liked the idea of his skull face being his actual face Also I hc him being lil fanboy over vikings, I mean JUST LOOK AT HIM AND TELL ME THIS DUDE DIDN'T BASE HIS WHOLE LOOK ON THEM -Ahem, Mace: I tried to think of something based on his mask shape and it just ended up looking like some kind of Dark Matter looking creature. yeah, I like drawing cyclops. -Trident: Idk, he just reminded me of a Burning Leo. So I made him one. I guess the explanation as to why Kirby cannot get a copy ability after inhaling him would be because of his cybernetic adjustements, since Trident mostly relies on them to use his fire abilities? Blade: I kinda based myself on a mix between his og design from KA and that one sprite where we see his single little eye:

Sword: Yk how most knight stories have at least some dragon related plot in them? well I wanted Sword to be not just some knight, BUT A DRAGON KNIGHT Idk, I just wanted him to be some british dragon knight because it just make sense in my head. also pretty funny if you think about it. At least it sounded funny in my head.

MetaMay 1-5!!

I think I will try and join, since pencil doodles are quicker for me than digital.

Plus after I revised, I took a break, scrolled tumblr and thought you know what?? Might as well improve my drawing Meta skills 😄

(I think I spelt robotized wrong in the drawing... oh wait I don't think so auto correct just saved me 😂😅)

THANK YOU! that's exactly what I was going for. i'm glad i pulled it off.

nothing but respect for all the hot man meta knight gijinkas but to me, meta knight's entire deal starts with his appearance. he's adorable! ...and he absolutely hates it. so he invents a new face for himself that matches who he is, and that's what makes meta knight so cool.

#which is why.......i feel really bad drawing him unmasked so much...... #but i really like the design! i'm sorry meta knight!

After a stressful day, I made some traditional art after a hot while.

I'm not making them married partners or whatever lmao, I just like the buddy relationship they have in my fantasy.

let’s do some autistic meta knight headcanons!! over explaining my interpretation of meta knight yet again wooooo

this orb has NO idea how to talk to people!!! outside of work anyway. a lot of this is partially due to upbringing (suppressing his emotions all the time) but he does not know how to express emotions, like…at all.

this goes into a few things

1. yeah talking is hard. even after figuring out what he wants to communicate he will struggle. conversation can be so overwhelming, especially under pressure. he will need time lol

2. because of that, forming connections is hard. i really don’t think meta is much for shallow relationships, and certainly not early in the timeline. which also means he has very little experience with friendship. so a lot of the relationships he did have went kinda neglected, and issues that probably could’ve been worked on by talking became…*cough romk* escalated.

3. honestly i wouldn’t be surprised if meta convinced himself he couldn’t feel emotion (anymore) until like. katam-ish. he tried very hard lol

vulnerability is terrifying. (though this gesture here is also just comforting, like his little cape cocoon thing he does.)

unmasking—yeah im taking the mask thing very literally here—is a big deal and a very slow process for mk. i’m sure he has a lot of feelings on that lol. it served as a way to ensure no one could ever, y’know, see him.

i can’t say i think he’d ever fully ditch it—there’s always gonna be some days that are more stressful than others and if having it could help him get through it, it just makes sense. mainly when working.

it really is about vulnerability. granted, i don’t think he has the most expressive face (in my head every astral just tends to stare at things) but i doubt he has much control over it. can’t fake a smile but also can’t hide it. probably blushes easy because yeah, astrals; just look at kirby’s face.

just the idea that someone might be able to read his expression and know what he’s feeling before he’s ready for them to (or even understands it himself…) yeah he doesn’t want that

but emotional turmoil aside, i think his mask also hides a lot of his stims

remember that whole “suppressing your feelings” thing? yeah turns out that ignoring half your instincts isn’t a good idea. so in true meta knight style, he tries to stim as subtly as possible

1. he has the least control over his wings, so they will flick and twitch on their own. they’re usually a good indicator of how he’s feeling, not unlike the body language usually seen in cat ears and tails lol. flapping is also an extension of this of course, though he probably suppresses it more.

2. this also effects when he takes his wings out. pretty much every time he’s excited or nervous it just happens. kinda makes me wonder if his wing cape ordeal might also go into the suppression thing… (i’d say yes, but using a cape is also very comforting so it’s not necessarily a bad thing)

3. going back to the mask thing; he stims a lot underneath it. think like biting or pursing your lips. he bites his tongue and clicks his mouth. that sort of thing. his mask also makes it harder to notice that he is constantly sighing, humming, grumbling…all that

one nice thing about the mask though is that it helps a little bit with lights!!! woo

(look at him and his magically floating glasses)

sensory stuff—i think he’s mostly bothered by light and sound. maybe a bit of texture. he’s pretty sensory avoidant and perfectly happy standing off to the side not touching anything.

the one exception to this is physical affection, which is, despite all of this, most of how he shows affection. it’s a lot easier to hug someone than to try to explain your feelings for them, after all.

i think he would like pressure though. so that’s probably part of it. and i’m pretty sure there’s some connection in here to fighting (dang, is that the only way he knows how to get his energy out?)

anyway, pretty much all of this is in contrast to kirby, who i would gladly nominate as the champion of Doing Whatever He Wants. he might pick up a few bad habits, but he will never mask the way meta knight does. he might not understand how he feels, but he’s in tune enough to express it…usually.

this is a very good thing for meta because it helps him to do the same thing. kirby’s so energetic, it’s hard to not want to stim with him. it reminds meta to be kinder to himself and explore his own emotions. he can also help kirby understand themselves, so this connection is very important.

yeah, at the end of the day, everything kinda just boils down to kirby and mk as parallels

this is the conclusion i promise

to me, meta’s arc is about growing stronger by growing kinder, and this is mostly by learning to be kind to himself. letting himself be a person again, loving and understanding other people, and eventually, letting go of all the expectations placed on him and doing the things he’s always wanted to do…

autism headcanons are fun for me because it’s cathartic to write, but at the same time, it just makes sense in this sort of narrative. meta is, to me, inseparable from these things. and so is kirby! that’s a dynamic that’s a lot of fun to play with, and it’s at the heart of my kirby interpretation.

if you actually read all this WOW thank you

#i almost considered not posting this on a wednesday but then i wrote everything and uhhh yeah i think i gotta so #happy cringe day wednesday #for as many notes as i have on these characters i really don’t talk about it much #but meta knight is a special case because i am terrible at subtlety and he wouldn’t be meta knight without it #so this is to contextualize some things #because of what ill have in the next few days haha #basically these are just things i consider when writing meta #but a lot of it is subtextual and i dont know how well it comes across #kirbyposting #kirby #meta knight #headcanons #autism headcanon #this is practically an essay lol oops #i have like 2/3 of a fic that explores most of this in a way i probably won’t do again #but we’ll see if i ever finish it #god kirby concepts are so fun to chew on #i overthink everything i make so much lol

[terminaxshowtime]

problem: i know that gijinka kirby artists love to make their maskless meta knights super hot with sharp eyes and looks that could kill, i get it, it's sick af. but if we're being honest, we also gotta make him look at least as nonthreatening and kirby-like when he's unmasked in humanized form as he does in the games.

my solution: give human meta knight big anime shoujo eyes

#this was a bad shower thought #kirby #termina rambles #meta knight #<- i need everyone to see this i need this to happen okay i can't draw that kinda stuff
