You don't hav eto draw a comic or anything if you don't want to, but I had the question of how would the cast react if theu turned into human/gijinka for a day?
answering this one ooc because it's easier than doing it in character
First off, I'm going to assume that they all become Adeleine-sized humans rather than average-sized real humans. I believe Kirby is canonically like 8 inches tall, so like. Everything on Planet Popstar is Small. A real human would be a Giant there and probably wouldn't fit into most buildings lmao. So yeah, everyone stays within a reasonable enough range of Adeleine's height.
Putting the rest of this under a cut since it's pretty long
Marx has arms and hands now, oh god oh fuck. Who allowed him to have this kind of power. He is going to commit even More atrocities. It'll take him a bit of time to figure out how to use those hands, sure, but you just gave him powerful instruments of Chaos. He will learn how to use them, and once he does you'd better run. After him. Please, catch him before it's too late.
Magolor now has arms attached to his hands instead of just having them floating around. That's gotta feel weird. I just imagine him trying to move his hands around in some sort of weird way that he's normally able to do, but can't because his arms are in the way dgdshs. Also legs. He's got those now, and that's definitely also weird. Though if we want to assume that everyone keeps their powers through the transformation, then he'd probably just use his magic to float and continue denying the floor lmao
Speaking of which, Susie also gains arms and legs, and unlike Magolor she's not gonna be able to avoid having to use those legs if she wants to move around (unless she uses some sort of technology to help her out?). Aside from that though she doesn't change too much physically, since she already looks very humanoid. Though since I personally like to deny canon and see her as a robot, the transition from being mechanical to an organic being would definitely be Very Weird.
I'm kind of inclined to say that Dedede would have it the easiest out of everyone? It'd still be strange for him, of course, but at least he doesn't have to get used to any new limbs or anything. He'd just have to adjust to slightly different body proportions and a completely different facial structure, which, again, still would be strange, but isn't as bad as everyone else, who have to deal with all of that on top of other things.
Meta Knight, meanwhile, I think might have it the worst. Yes, in terms of new changes he's on equal ground with Kirby and Bandana Dee, who are all mostly spherical creatures who need to adjust to having longer limbs and a head separate from their body. However, Meta Knight has been training for most of his life to be an agile and powerful fighter, and all of what he's learned is going to go out the window when he's in this clunky new human form. His combat capabilities are going to be pretty stunted as a human; even after he adjusts to things better I doubt he'd be able to move as swiftly as he does in his normal body. And he is Not going to be happy about that. And then there's also his wings, which I think he might still keep? Since I personally see them as being part of his body (though I think the newer games might be trying to imply that they're actually just his cape). But either way, even if he does keep his wings, flying would definitely be much more difficult as a human. So all in all, Meta Knight's pretty upset about everything, and has probably hidden himself away from everyone else so he can grumpily brood in peace until things go back to normal (assuming there's nothing he can do to get things fixed quicker, that is).
Kirby has a lot of changes to get used to, but he's nothing if not adaptable. It can't be much worse than being split into ten smaller versions of yourself, or becoming a literal ball with no limbs, or being completely made of yarn, right? And in all of those cases he didn't have access to his copy ability, so he can still fare well enough without it. So, after the initial adjustment period, I think Kirby would be pretty much okay! He'd still be happy to go back to his regular body, of course, but during the day he'd be in a much better mood than most of the cast.
Bandee also has a mouth now, on top of everything else that's different. I've never given much thought to how Waddle Dees communicate, but it does make me wonder if Bandee would have to do it differently from his usual way when he's in his human form?
Puppet: i loved that your april fools joke was psychological warfare. If you dont what it means it means you used their instincts against them
Marx: *laughs* It was great watching everyone panic at every little thing they did, expecting some sort of prank.
Magolor: And all our planning wasn't for nothing! We've got a lot of great prank ideas now, and the materials to make 'em happen too!
Marx: *grins* Next year's April Fools is gonna be great!
The Group's April Fools Experience
In the weeks leading up to April Fools, Marx and Magolor were constantly hyping up the day. They'd make plans for pranks, bring home tons of materials, etc.
So, of course, everyone else is worried about what's to come. On April Fools day, everyone (except Kirby) was super cautious and on edge, constantly checking everything for traps.
What did Marx and Magolor end up doing? Nothing. The one prank that occurred that day was one by Kirby that involved a whoopee cushion. Their plan was to make everyone think they were doing something crazy and watch the chaos unfold.
...That said, they still have plenty of prank supplies to use over the next few months, so the rest of the group should probably watch out.
Magolor: You know that's partially why nobody trusts you, right?
Marx: Worth it.
Magolor: Yeah that's fair.
"Hello! It's me again! I have a different set of survey questions! What is your favourite colour? And could you explain how it is your favourite colour?" (@zeros-witness)
Kirby: I like all colours! Especially bright ones!
Dedede: I like reds and oranges. That’s why a lot of my castle’s got those colours.
Meta Knight: Dark colours are useful when you don’t want to be seen.
Bandana Dee: Um… I like blue. L-like my bandana.
Magolor: Yeah, I’m with Bandee. Blue’s pretty cool. The Lor’s got a lot of blue.
Marx: My favourite colour? Uh… I guess the red and blue of my hat’s pretty nice?
Hey Magolor and Marx, when Kirby forgave you for what you did, were you surprised he forgave you?
Marx: Yeah, I was pretty surprised. He seemed a little hesitant at first when I asked to help stop those crazy cult guys with him, but he still let me join.
Marx: *shakes head with a smile* The kid's too trusting for his own good. He's lucky I wasn't planning to betray him again.
Magolor: I already knew how kind Kirby was, so I wasn't too surprised, just relieved. I'm really glad Kirby was willing to give me a second chance.
Magolor: I know a lot of people here are still wary of me, but Kirby seems to trust me completely. I... He's a really great guy.
Marx: I killed god for you what more do you want
Dedede: ...For you to not be a dick?
Maggy: hes okay. But his robe was burnt to a crisp and we all found out the hard way he wasnt wearing anything underneath. Meta Knight quickly covered kirbys eyes. It was a very.... weird new years. But taralor loved her first firework show. Before i had to cover her 4 eyes when dededes clothes caught on fire. King dedede was as red as a cherry during that. And yes i did laugh while covering taralors eyes
Meta Knight: ...Hm. I... *coughs* I see.
*Marx, meanwhile, can be seen laughing in the background*
Maggy: me and my taranza took taralor kirby to see the fireworks our meta Knight set up! The only werid thing we saw that day was our king dedede having his robe catch fire and run around trying to put it out. I had to cover taralors eyes during that
Meta Knight: Hm. That sounds quite dangerous. I assume your Dedede is okay?
Marx: *in the distance* He deserves it!
Who is the most mischievous of the group?
((Marx and Magolor, easily. I'm not sure who's more mischievous between them, though I'm leaning a bit towards Marx. Either way, Marx is generally more chaotic with his mischief, while Magolor tends to be more harmless and playful.))
So if Marx is a jester, then can he say a funny joke?
What happens when marx drinks alcohol?
Magolor: …Unless you’re sent to the Halberd instead of the Lor. Kirby destroys that thing all the time, so I’m sure Meta Knight won’t mind!
Excuse me, good day kind citizens of Dream Land... Could you tell me what you think of our Lord, Zero? Please reply honestly, and if it wouldn't take too much time, could you fill out a survey, each? (@zeros-witness)
Kirby: He was really mean and scary…
Dedede: That’s the guy who possessed me, right? Yeah, can’t say I like him much.
Bandana Dee: That’s… Gooey’s dad or something, right..? I-I’ve never met him, but he doesn’t sound very nice…
Meta Knight: I’ve never met him myself, but from what I’ve heard it’s a good thing he’s dead.
Marx: Uh… Who?
Magolor: Zero, Zero, Zero… Hmmm… I think I’ve read about him before, but I’m not sure.
Meta Knight: What type of survey would you like us to fill out?
So, Marx, how did you get the sun and the moon to fight?
Marx: The effects of their fight really only impacted Dream Land, but that was enough to trick Kirby into helping me.
Heya fellow Marx! Have you ever tried munching on your shoes? Y'know, because they look like bread. *Snort* -From your good pal, Marx.
Is the communist child allowed to have any sugar? I have a brownie
Marx: Ooh! Gimme!
Meta Knight: He is allowed to have sugar, of course, as long as he doesn't have too much.
Meta Knight: Alcohol, however... *shakes head* Never again.
Hey Marx! How do you feel about all the communist jokes about you? Do you even know what communism is?
Marx: …Communism..? Never heard of it. Guess it’s just something from your dimension.

((Fun fact: Before I realized that Magolor outright states that he met someone who told him about Kirby, it was gonna be Meta Knight's fault that Marx was alive. The magic used to summon Nova and fight Galacta Knight would have also revived Marx. So basically, between blowing up his own ship and reviving a guy who tried to take over the world, Meta Knightmare Ultra would have been "Meta Knight Fucks Up: The Subgame."))
Marx then proceeded to make a huge mess of the kitchen, and everyone had to order pizza for dinner.
...Marx isn't allowed in the kitchen anymore.
