Well, first of all I would like to thank you for allowing me a chance to conduct this interview.
|
|
Well, you are quite welcome.
|
|
Of course I'd like it a bit more if wasn't just a picture I was talking to.
|
|
(Giggles) Well, I'd hardly be Incognito Himitsu if I let you see me, would I?
|
|
I suppose not. Well, let's start with your name. Is it really Incognito Himitsu?
|
|
(Sarcastic) Yes, Mr. and Mrs. Himtsu named their child Incognito since it is such a common name back in the old country.
|
|
I suppose I deserve that. Then what is your real name.
|
|
Like I'm falling for that one. Mrs. Himitsu did not raise any fools.
|
|
What about sex?
|
|
Never on the first date.
|
|
I mean gender.
|
|
That's a secret. After all, an answer to that would cut down the possibilities of who I might be by half.
|
|
That has to be one of the most paranoid statements I have ever heard.
|
|
Thank you. I do try.
|
|
Can't you even give us a hint? I mean, when we picture you, knowing whether you're in a girls diaper or a boys diaper would help.
|
|
Hardly matters. I could be male, I could be female, I could be both.
|
|
What, like a hemaphrodite?
|
|
Well, I suppose, but what if I am more than one person? And I don't mean I have a split personality. And neither do I.
|
|
So you are saying there could be two or more people working under the name of Incognito Himitsu?
|
|
That is a possibility, isn't it?
|
|
Is it the truth?
|
|
Of course not. Or maybe. I forget.
|
|
How about how old are you?
|
|
I really should not tell you, but, seeing as I've been less than forthcoming on everything else, let's say in my twenties.
|
|
Since I doubt you are not going to tell me anything else, how about telling me how you got interested in diapers?
|
|
Good question. I'm not sure. Maybe it had something to do with the fact I wet the bed when I was younger.
|
|
I see. So, because you wet the bed, your parents put you back in diapers, treating you like a baby as punishment, and that has effected your whole life since!
|
|
(Angry) Are you calling my parents child abusers!
|
|
What? Well, no. It's just that...
|
|
Just that mentally and physically abusing a child with diapers seems okay?
|
|
There are a lot of stories like that.
|
|
And most of them are horrid.
|
|
I'm sorry. So, how do you think your bedwetting led you to become interested in diapers?
|
|
I have no idea. I'm not even sure if it did.
|
|
Well, that's not a lot of help.
|
|
Sorry. Best I can do.
|
|
So, when was the first time you wore a diaper, after you got out of them?
|
|
I was probably fifteen or sixteen. I went and bought one, adult diaper from a drug store that sold them that way. I took it home and put it on. It was interesting.
|
|
And after that?
|
|
I think a few years later I bought a package of adult diapers and wore them.
|
|
And then it became something you did all the time?
|
|
No, not really. Infantalism is a place I visit, I don't live there, I suppose you could say.
|
|
What about the story, 'The Club with No Name'.
|
|
That was fiction. Probably.
|
|
I hope you'll forgive me for saying this, but you are not much of an adult baby.
|
|
What can I say?
|
|
And yet you obviously put a lot of time into writing these stories and drawing these pictures.
|
|
Well, regular people look kind of silly in diapers, not all of them of course, but still, an adult dressed in a diaper just does not look all that cute. Anime characters on the other hand are a different story. If I were an anime character I would be dressed in diapers all the time.
|
|
What anime character would you be?
|
|
Ruri Hoshino or Yuki Saiko, I would think. Or someone like them.
|
|
Here's a question. If you had broken the law, and were given the choice of serving your time in prison, or being forced into diapers and treated like a baby for the same time, which would you chose?
|
|
That's an interesting question.
|
|
I try.
|
|
Well, according to all the stories, someone who takes the second choice always ends up regretting it. Of course the first choice offers the joys of beatings and being raped with a broomstick. I suppose I might chose the baby option, because I think it is the far easier option, the fictional stories non-withstanding.
|
|
Since you brought them up, what do you, as an author, look for in such stories?
|
|
Believability first and foremost. I mean, you can shave off some realism for the sake of the story, but it has to be something that I could see happening, unless it is set in a complete fantasy world. I also don't care much for blatant acts of child abuse or mysogynism that you find in too many of those so-called stories. A little minor humiliation and embarrassment is alright, but you have to make sure you don't go at it with too heavy a hand.
|
|
Are there any authors whose work you particularly like?
|
|
Well, a few. Hal, Katchase and Dark Oni all write good stories, though Dark Oni is more into regression then diaper based stories. There are some Japanese authors, like Diam and Kaori that are really good as well.
|
|
What inspires you to write stories?
|
|
Often it is just an idea about an anime character that I think would look cute in diapers. Then I try to think of a realistic way to get them into diapers.
|
|
How about stories like 'Fiona and Miki'?
|
|
They may be semi-autobiographical. Then again, the sort of reverse, dominant/submissive role between a so called authority figure and one of her charges is not that new. They are just old ideas that I try to put a new spin on.
|
|
Would you consider doing a comic of any of your stories?
|
|
That is not really my thing, so no, probably not.
|
|
And, since we are on the subject, where do you do your work?
|
|
At home, at a pair of messy desks, covered with bits and pieces of my life.
|
|
I see. Well, shifting to a different track, what kind of diapers do you prefer?
|
|
I don't really have a preference, as long as they are well made. I like disposables, though I have never really tried cloth. Oh, I like Goodnights.
|
|
You mean the bedwetting pants?
|
|
Yes, isn't that a great term, 'bedwetting pants'? It's like once you put them on you are a bed-wetter. And they'll hold more than one wetting, they are discrete, and they make you feel deliciously naughty when you wear them under your clothes.
|
|
What about other baby paraphanelia?
|
|
I've played with baby-bottles and pacifiers, but, other than at raves, I don't have much use for them.
|
|
Raves? Well, what kind of music do you like?
|
|
Dance and electronica are good, but I have eclectic styles. Anime soundtracks, movie soundtracks, hardrock, pop, punk, jazz, folk, and a few others are likely to find there way into my CD player. I really like Bif Naked, and Shoen Knife.
|
|
If someone wanted to punish you....
|
|
What?
|
|
This is a rhetorical question, just to get an idea of the sort of person you are.
|
|
Oh.
|
|
If someone wanted to punish you, should they make you stand in a corner, give you a spanking, make you wear diapers, or put you in adult clothes and send you to off to a job?
|
|
That's clever. Well, let's see. I suppose the last one would be the worst punishment of the lot.
|
|
I see. Well, to finish this off, why do you have a thing against people who use art without permission.
|
|
Because that is called stealing and that is wrong.
|
|
Is there any other reason, besides than taking a stance against thieves.
|
|
People who take stories and art without permission never create any thing new. Why should they when they can just steal what they want. It's lazy and it upsets the people who did the work. Think of how much material we would have if more people were willing to get off their lazy butts and create something. As it is all they do is make it less likely that the people who create things will be willing to share.
|
|
So, has anyone taken your work without permission?
|
|
Occasionally. Up to this point all the people who have, with one exception, have been considerate enough to respect my wishes.
|
|
And what happens if people stop being considerate?
|
|
Then I stop sharing my work. I'll still write stories for myself and draw pictures for myself, but no one else will ever see them.
|
|
Hopefully it won't come to that. Last question. What are your plans for the future?
|
|
Nothing really solid. There are a few stories I want to write and some other work I would like to embark on, but right now real life in intruding on my time.
|
|
Thank you for your time.
|
|
You're welcome.
