The use of diction contributes to the mood because the playful descriptions of "word warrior" and "gray-haired Mighty Mouse" create a lighthearted mood.

<h3>What is diction?</h3>

In literature, diction refers to the author's choice and use of certain words when describing or explaining something. Diction influences tone and mood in literary works.

<h3>What is mood?</h3>

We call mood in literary works that atmosphere created by authors that make readers feel certain things or a certain way. Mood is influenced by diction, that is, by the words used.

In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the mood is lighthearted as the author uses certain expressions to describe the aunt. Calling someone a "gray-haired Mighty Mouse" is quite a funny way to describe that person.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option D is the correct answer.
