Part of a series on establishing the personality of characters, using canon information part 2: Waddle Dee
At the first appearance, we can already see some personality from Waddle Dee. He first catiously pokes the mysterious crystal, then carefully picks it up and seems to enjoy it, like a kid that found a cool rock. He plays with it, before getting stopped by Dark Matter. Waddle Dee is cautious to a reasonable amount.
Waddle Dee has celebrated successes with both Kirby and Adeleine.
Waddle Dee is startled by Dark Matter.
During the cutscene after Dedede is possessed, after everyone else leaves, Waddle Dee stays with Dedede afterwards for a short amount before joining in with the others.
He looks back for a last time before leaving. He isn't willing to abandon his friends to stay with Dedede.
Waddle Dee exchanges glances with different characters throughout the game. Along with many other character interactions, this shows that Waddle Dee has good social skills, despite having no mouth.
Waddle Dee is not afraid to assist others. Specifically, when they are fainting or have been possessed. The cutscene with the fairy queen shows that Waddle Dee acts quickly.
Waddle Dee walks behind Dedede. This is likely because he works for Dedede.
During the volcano cutscene, Waddle Dee is last. He, like Adeleine, has to be rescued. This time, by Kirby.
Apparently, Waddle Dee likes strawberries.
