Theme Prompt: #297 - Unexpected Kindness
Title: the spring breeze, revised
Fandom: Kirby (particularly, the Spring Breeze segment of Kirby Super Star Ultra / Kirby's Dream Land (1992))
Rating/Warnings: PG / Allusions to Kirby Star Allies, timeline shenanigans, a Magolor Is Good AU known as Mahoroa of the Stars and a "Void becomes a new Kirby" AU (name pending I guess lol)
Word Count: 992 words :)
Bonus: Yes!!
Author's Note: AND I RETURNETH, HA! It's been a very long while since I've posted on Dreamwidth and the Kirby hyperfixation came back! This was, in part, inspired by this Youtube video I love, hehe. Also, a comic I read recently gave me inspiration. The timeline shenanigans are because of the whole "Void becomes a new Kirby" thing, I may have to explore that in a future writing challenge. Hope ya'll enjoy!
Summary: Newly landed in Dreamland, Kirby, with only the memory of his own name, beats up and then offers friendship to a new man he meets by the name of King Dedede, unknowingly touching the mean penguin's long-lonely heart with his actions.

Challenge 297:
UNEXPECTED KINDNESS

It’s not always easy to be kind, but it’s often worth it. A little bit of kindness can turn around a bad day in a few minutes – maybe it’s a hug, or somewhere warm to wait out of the wind, or just a smile and a kind word, but it can go a long, long way.

Are your characters the ones showing kindness, or the ones who could use a little bit of it? Is there such a thing as being too kind, or is it worth it no matter what?

Write a story about unexpected kindness.

BONUS GOAL: “It costs nothing to be kind.”

If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge ends Monday, April 20 at 9:00PM EST.
