Yeah, another Kink Meme prompt. .. I'm so lame...

This was also inspired by Within the Cardboard Box a bit. (The MetaxJiggly in that fic is ADORABLE.) Thank you, fandom, for making my newest OTP a pair of formless balls of fluff.

His reverie disrupted, Meta Knight turned around and was met with a pair of beautiful blue eyes. At least his mask was hiding the fact that he was blushing.

He took her short, pink arm. She nodded happily, and took off with a spring in her small step.

Yes. He was such a fool, such a fool for falling in love.

...But it was all worth it.
