Ask the Crew! [Banjo]

You've heard all about the gang, but now it's time to ask them whatever's on your mind! Or just... say something at them, and see how they react! Most questions will get a reply, but the best ones may get a drawing alongside them!

This week's quizzee is Banjo! Come say hi to everyone, big boy!

Banjo walks on stage, visibly bright-eyed and excited.
He sees the almost empty room and lets out a sigh of relief.

He stands up in front of the microphone stand and speaks.
Banjo's so tall, the microphone doesn't pick up his voice.
A stagehand rushes in and extends his microphone up.

"Oh! Ahuhuh, oops~"

"Uhh. Hello! Can you hear me now?
My name's Banjo! Err... Well, that's my nickname, in fact.
... I'm 29, I'm gonna turn 30 next June.
What else..."

"I'm single... I'm a carpenter!
I like to do all sorts of wood stuff in my free time.
... I also play the banjo, hehe. That's how I got my nickname."

"Hmm..."

Banjo looks down while he fiddles with his fingers, as he tries to find interesting things about him.

"Um... My family's from a small town outback...
It's not far from the camp we used to go to..."

"And... I dunno... I like hugs?
Gosh, I'm making this awkward! Ahuhuh~"

Comments

Banjo__: "Sauce... Well, I like a sweet honey mustard! Sweet and soft, but with a little kick to it! Or... well, if not that, I'd just be honey. I put it on a bunch of stuff - pancakes, eggs... sandwiches, salads..." Drumstick__: "Hate to say it, big guy, but I think you missed the point... See, you're a nice bear, right? So... your favourite sauce should be BEARNAISE! BEAR-NICE! Huhh?!~" Pipsy__: "Awful." Banjo__: "Bearnaise... Ahuh-huh-huh-huh!~" Drumstick__: "See! He gets it!" Pipsy: "... Bearnaise is actually one of my favourite sauces, and you've ruined it for me with that sorry joke." Drumstick: "Ah, shucks! Looks like Pipsy can't take a *yolk*! Man, I'm on a roll with these sauce jokes... A spring roll!" Pipsy: "I need a gun."

Banjo: "Oh, that's easy! I love sitting at my crafts table and doing some woodworking while the TV's playing in the background. I usually chat with friends too, it really helps me unwind after a long day at work." --I think the emphasis is "lots" of free time.-- Banjo: "Uhmm... Lots of free time by myself... Well, if I have the whole day off, I'll bring myself a snack and go to the park, or I'll go for a walk in the woody trail close to my home... or go to a diner..." Pipsy: "Spill the beans, Banjo. They want to know if you prance around the house in the buff. (I wanna know too.)" Banjo: "W-wuhh... I'm sure they don't mean that! And I don't... do that... Well, not on purpose, or anything. Just when I come out of the shower, I... might wait in my towel until I'm dry before I put clothes on..." Pipsy: "How long does it take for you to dry? 6 hours, ish?" Banjo: "Thirty minutes to an hour! Usually no more than that! Quit painting me like I'm some... secret nudist, or something." Pipsy: "There's nothing wrong with that, you know... And I'll paint you however I want, thank you very much~"

If you were a jar of sauce, what kind of sauce would you be?

"Gosh, I still remember it... That was the first time (and only time!) I was inside a cop car. I'd just turned 21, and Kazooie and Conker decided that we would have fun with a beer in the park after dark. I didn't know it was against the rules to drink there... So... a police car came by, and Kazooie and Conker ran as fast as they could. But... I dunno what happened - I just froze! So two police officers came out and started asking me questions... I tried to hold it together, but I was panicking! 'You know you can't drink in public like this?' 'What's your name? Who are your friends?' ... I-I told them everything. I was so scared of getting in more trouble. They just brought me back home and told my parents. They were disappointed in me... golly, I still get nervous when I think about it. Kazooie and Conker got in trouble too because of me, but... we got over it since. We're true friends, that's why!"

What made you take up carpentry? Any inspirations or role models that encouraged you to take the path you're on?

SUPEREEVEEMASTER

What's one profession/hobby that you've always wanted to do but can't (too busy, scared to do it, etc.)? Think of it like your secret passion. Perhaps it's something none of your family or friends would ever think you'd like or ever do.

If could eat/drink one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Hey Banjo! I've always enjoyed hearing about your antics! What's the funniest time you've almost gotten into big trouble?

Gosh he is speaking my kind of language. Those all sound like great places to hang <3

B: "Hmm... Gosh! That's a good question. I usually just let the other person decide and go along with them... I've enjoyed going to pubs, and saunas, and movie theatres. If there's a country festival around, I usually like going in good company, ahuh-huh~" "But... I guess if it's up to me, I think I prefer going someplace nice and quiet, like the woods or a cabin. 'Course, we need food and stuff! All the things we need to make it special. It's cool if there's a hot tub or a sauna, but honestly I think I prefer without. No internet, no TV... No electricity. Just the two of us, spending every minute together. We can enjoy food and talk, share memories, lit by a candle... Listen to the sound of the forest... Feel the big, wide world around us. And, if we get cold, we can... sit by the fire or the wood stove together, and roast some treats. Or, I suppose we... can cuddle too... if... you're into that..." "... Um, I wouldn't go there on a first date, ahuh-huh! Golly, no... Only once I've gotten to know the person, and I know they'd enjoy a trip like that too..."

B: "Golly, thanks! To be honest, most of it is just fur... I'm a little fat too, ahuh-huh!" *Banjo presses down the fur on his bicep, though it's clear most of it ISN'T fur or fat.* "How much can I lift... You know, I'm not sure? I don't go to the gym or anything, I just lift a lot when I'm at work – beams of wood, tools... You know the drill!" *Drumstick laughs in the distance.* "Um... Heh, anyway. But, I think the heaviest thing I've lifted was my family's old grandfather clock... It's this big, Spanish mahogany clock, it's got all sorts of little details sculpted on it, and obviously it's got clockwork inside too... My uncle said it weighs 285 lbs, but I think he's exaggerating a little... I had to bring it upstairs from the basement, mostly on my own because those were narrow stairs. I don't think I've ever sweated so much. It's a good thing it had varnish on, otherwise it would've gotten stained! Ahuh-huh!"

B: "Um... H-Heh~ Well, I like working on my wood after work! I like to carve stuff, and make little wooden feeders... little wood portraits you can hang on the wall. My favourites are scenes with bears fishing, or walking in the woods, or, y'know... All sorts of things. Those remind me of my childhood a lot! I've made toys, dollhouses... furniture like tables, chairs... I'm pretty big on wood! Ahuh-huh~ I think this all started when I was trying to do a really nice group portrait of me, Kazooie, Conker and Berri. It was doing a sort of... wood-burning portrait mixed with sculpting. But... I never actually finished it, because Berri passed away, and then Kazooie left, and Conker... He... ... Well, you know. Um... Sorry. I shouldn't be dumping all of this on you."

Hey you handsome, huggable bear. What would your ideal date night or day be like? Where would you go, if anywhere?
