Ask Diddy!

[Anagnos]

As a kid, what did you want to be when you “grew up?”

[DiddyKT2]

As a kid, what did you want to be when you “grew up?”

My first thought was being a race car driver.

Have you ever cried when listening to a sad song?

[DiddyKT2]

Have you ever cried when listening to a sad song?

I think I might have at one point. I don't remember which one it was, though. It was a long time ago.

[Anagnos]

How do you deal with stress?

[DiddyKT2]

How do you deal with stress?

I like to just lie down on my nice soft bed. If I'm not home, then I just walk off so that I can be alone for a few minutes.

[ImpracticalDino]

Is there anything you're prideful about?

[DiddyKT2]

Is there anything you're prideful about?

I don't like to show pride in my achievements. There are personal achievements that I feel proud of, such as graduating and getting an Associate's Degree, and my improvements in fanfiction writing and video/audio editing, but most of the time my mind is set on whatever lies next for me.

Are you good at analyzing people?

Ideal moveset if someone were to convert you into a fighting game character?

[DiddyKT2]

Are you good at analyzing people?

I don't think I can say that I am. I'm not one to turn to when it comes to psychology.

Ideal moveset if someone were to convert you into a fighting game character?

Well, I'd preferably be a wild-going monkey just like Diddy Kong, and I'd share most of the moves he has, but I'd come with a few of my own, such as charging down from above and clapping my feet hard against an opponent to do some damage, and spinning around very fast while stretching my legs out to do some very painful kicks to anyone close enough! I would shoot lasers rather than the peanuts that Diddy prefers, and being able to fly for a short distance would be nice, too! As for my finale, I pull out a boombox and make it play some distorting, loud jungle drum and bass music and would use my jet pack to zip towards enemies and rhythmically beat the crap out of them, while at the same time shooting lasers at others, also in rhythm to the loud music. I'd more likely make it "My Sound" by Potential Badboy.

What’s the most amazing place in nature you’ve been?

[DiddyKT2]

What’s the most amazing place in nature you’ve been?

I'd have to say Allegany State Park. I haven't been to too many places.

What is one thing you've observed in your backyard in the past week?

[DiddyKT2]

What is one thing you've observed in your backyard in the past week?

Um, ... nature.

Do you have a sweet tooth?

[DiddyKT2]

Do you have a sweet tooth?

I suppose you could say I do. I have quite a fondness for ice cream, and I especially have a craving for anything that has to do with Reese's. Every time one of those "Not Sorry! Reese's" commercials pops up on TV, I break into my Diddy Kong/Petrie voice just sighing as if I'm falling into a trance just wishing what was on the screen was REAL!

[ImpracticalDino]

Wow. It has only been decently recent since I realized my voice got deeper, and I feel as if I can't hit any high notes at all anymore. Hehe, I always wanted a deep voice, but now that I do, it seems like I took my former voice for granted.

Do you plan on dubbing your Petrie voice for the entire first movie? What about sequels?

It's funny how I'm 26 and my voice is naturally deep, even compared to others my age around my area. Even then, I can still hit those high pitches. I practiced in character as Diddy Kong for years before I found out that Petrie's voice sounds very similar to Diddy's voice from the Donkey Kong Country cartoon series. I'd say Petrie is probably just the tiniest bit squeakier, being the younger of the two.

You could try practicing every once in a while, without overdoing so that you don't blow out your voice or hurt your throat.

I've already dubbed my Petrie voice for the whole first movie, and if we ever do end up doing the sequels, I might give those a shot, too.
