Kiki's delivery service rp

[JustJoe]

The window was small enough that it only took two swipes with the damp cloth to lift most of the dust and cobwebs off the inside plane. Beyond the square of glass was now framed a brilliant blue sky dappled with distant white clouds. Reflected in the glass was the bright smiling face of a teenage girl who's thick brown hair had never truly been tamed by brush or comb and so was still always worn with a big red ribbon to keep it out of mischief.
The girl, Kiki, was still admiring her housework and the bright beckoning sky her efforts had yielded. She could feel her spirit soaring. She loved to fly but she had been doing so less and recently as she had decided she wanted to develop in other areas of witchcraft in order to become what she thought was a more mature witch.
Thus far her experiments had each ended in disaster but currently she was confident about her cleaning spell. It was usually too much effort to go fetch the heavy timber frame step ladder and carry it all the way the stairs to her rented room in the loft. Plus once it was there it was wobbly and although she liked flying she didn't like falling. The magical solution was proving effective. She had the cloth levitating just like a flying broom stick. She remembered Tombo commenting on her broomstick when they had first met. Her concentration in the spell lapsed.
The cleaning cloth, which had been slowly descending towards a standing pail of water to rinse itself suddenly darted. It smacked hard against the steel side with a ringing that echoed across the attic room, followed by a clang as the pail ended and rolled across the floorboards, sloshing it's contents.
Kiki gasped as she watched water seep between the floorboards. Any time she mopped her room she knew just to dampen the mop not to spread water across the floor. What was below her room? A storage area? Was there sacks of flour down there which might get ruined. Whatever the case Kiki knew the clatter would have attracted attention and given her recent streak of magical misadventures she knew she was likely about to be in trouble.

Thankfully for Kiki whats below the room isn't items needed for the bakery but rather items being storied for future use among other such matters as sure the items can still get ruined but nothing that would hurt the bakeries income when it comes to making food at the very least.

Osono sighed as she rushed up to Kiki's room, sure she is worried if Kiki got hurt as over the now little over 5 years she has had Kiki as a border she has grown to more or less see Kiki as a adopted daughter in someway. Yet even if she hadn't seen Kiki like such she still would be just as worried as she rushed to the loft and slammed the door open ''Oh thank heaven you're not hurt!'' Osono exclaimed with relief as too many times Kiki's adventures in trying to widen witch skills have ended with Kiki hurt so atleast Osono wasn't mad in that regard just was worried .

''Listen I know you think you need to widen your skills to be a more mature wtich, but perhaps you're looking at this wrong on how to become a mature one'' Osono said as she has gotten abit frazzled in waiting for Kiki to wise up on what being mature means and so she has decided to give a ultimatum for she has seen Kiki getting stressed a lot more as time goes on this mature kick and is clearly effecting Kiki negatively'' if you don't take it easy and relax I will be forced to take action so you have no choice but to ''

"I'm sorry Ma'am. It was an accident, I'll clean it up right away." Kiki answered. She hadn't forgotten all of her manners, even though she was a lot more independent as a teenager. Kiki also felt bad that she had worried Osono again. Her shoulders sagged. "I won't do it again if you really don't want me too." Kiki visibly deflated, even her bright red bow appeared to droop as her head hung in acquiescence, her brown bangs falling in front of her eyes. How was she going to become a better witch now? Once Osono had gone Kiki sighed to herself, "well I can at least start mopping up.' She thought aloud, trying to be pro-actively positive. Of course she would have to do so without the use of magic.

For the next week Kiki kept to her promise. She put food out Jiji and the kittens, helped out in bakery and she even took a couple of delivery jobs. Flying felt bittersweet, it made her happy but it also made her think of Tombo. He had left the town to pursue a better education to enable him to have a career piloting aircraft. Kiki got left behind, witches didn't go off the colleges, she was supposed to stay in her chosen town and use her witchcraft to be helpful. It was because Tombo was away studying that Kiki felt she ought to try and study in her own way. So it was inevitable that dispute Osono's warning Kiki found herself once again compelled to try and better herself.

Kiki was in the garden sitting on the low boundary wall where she had a picturesque view over terracotta roofs towards the sparkling blue sea. In her hands, knuckles white with tension she clutched a letter. Tombo wrote to her weekly. Post days were usually high emotion days for Kiki when she usually chose to finish work early and spend some time all to herself. Today she was upset, scornful to be specific. Tombo had mentioned a friend in his letter. A girl! No doubt a clever girl smart enough to get herself enrolled at college. Kiki couldn't help but feel jealous, it was like an unscratchable itch under her skin.
Suddenly standing up from her perch on the wall, full of angry resolve. Kiki might not be able to go to college but she was a witch! She was determined to be the best witch she could. She fashioned the letter into a paper airplane and set it down on the wall where she had been sitting. Kiki had read somewhere that there were witches who could conjure winds with a whistle. She concentrated, appealing to the magic inside of herself and parted her lips. Behind her the washing on the line (currently, in fact regularly, her own bedsheets) flapped in a sudden breeze, she felt it buffet her from behind and whip at her hair. She focused on the paper plane. With a few more notes it was lifted into the air and swooped over the rooftops and trees before her. Kiki found with different notes she could keep it afloat and make it bank and climb and dive. She wondered how far she could make it fly? Privately she wondered if she could a letter of her own fly all the way to Tombo, that would surely impress him more than some clever girl?!
Unwisely Kiki tried to put more energy into her spell. Suddenly a huge gust rattled roof tiles, knocked over a wheelbarrow and sent Kiki tumbling over the wall with a scream.

The wind instantly ceased.

Kiki picked herself out the bushes she had landed in. She hadn't fallen very far down the grassy bank but she was a little scratched and bruised, mostly she felt stupid

[Bandit Keith]

Kiki to a degree was right about the friend matter but only on the friend being a clevor girl he isn't really impressed by the girl outside of a strong will the girl has, but Tombo had avoided mentioning the new friend was a girl for a reason he feared Kiki would be super upset and not believe him when he honestly mentions the girl is just that a friend he gets along with nothing more . After all he sorta is out of his depths at the college as well most cummintys like where he came from has a stigma he found out stronger then he'd have liked for he knew a lot of places like his home hardly had people attending collages but a lot of people seem to believe you are country trash among other such things at collage and where its at.

He even has had people believe he can't handle money right just do to where he came from. Which is why when he finally found someone who honestly wanted to be friends and they got along not to forget both have their own romantic interest in people not in the collage town its a good thing for both and he felt a need to write to Kiki about it. Granted he has been only saying the good about collage and either neglecting the bad in the letters or putting effort into making advents not seem bad if not outright lie about the shit he is putting up with. After all he doesn't want Kiki worried or feeling bad for him. Which do to how he has written his letters he is unaware just how bad Kiki is feeling without him back home.

.....
Still back to the matter at hand that's more pressing Osono hearing the scream hadn't been able to get to Kiki quick enough but she frowned not in a mad war but in a worried parent way ''Kiki lets get those scratches and bruises taken care''Osono said as she lead Kiki along into the house like one might a child as the ultimatum is now being put into effect granted Kiki doesn't know what the ultimatem from a week would intel . After all it so far could be passed off as parental instincts making the woman treat Kiki like a child on leading Kiki to the house and into the bathroom where Osono started to tend the scratches aswell as bruises on Kiki''Kiki how many times must I tell you have a reasonable able-bodied adult around whenever you are doing magic you haven't mastered yet or ones that can backfire?''Osono rhythmically asked in a gentle chiding tone as she worked

[JustJoe]

The skinny teenager let herself be led by the arm, Kiki was downcast at once again having failed an attempt and magic and for disappointing Osono.

They were within the ceramic glean of the bathroom, the proper one within the household not the outdoor privy Kiki tended to use in order to stay out of the family's way. Kiki winced as pungent iodene was dabbed onto her scratches. Then came the assault on her pride. She couldn't help but verbally protest.

"Osono I'm the town witch! There isn't anyone around who has an understanding of magic, so what would be the point in wasting someone's time in asking them to supervise me? Besides, I will learn new magic, by myself, I just need to keep practicing."

[Bandit Keith]

'' The point is if you get injured badly I want to be sure you make it to the hospital or atleast the clinic for treatment and not end up ignoring it or worse '' Osono said in a way a mother would to a child or young teenager and its true worry aswell as care in the tone about Kiki. She even has the feeling like Osono has unofficially taken Kiki in as her own in someway.

''And you've hurt yourself far too much as of late without someone to make sure you'd not get hurt ,then comes the stress of everything on you. I'm keeping my word and prepared afew things to make sure you are about as relax and taking it as easy as you can'' Osono said as she had prepared afew things sense the ultimatum even called in afew favors from some woman she knows to get special made clothing and the like for Kiki

[JustJoe]

Kiki quietly reflected on the common sense the motherly figure was trying to impart on her. The teen did have to acknowledge that she knew magic was dangerous. She recalled when she was first learning to fly as a little girl and her mother had either flown with or closely beside her. Now however she was exceptionally capable at flying and rarely had any accidents. She supposed supervision was an important part of the process but then again she had only been a little girl back then.

"I'm sorry I got hurt again Osono but what do you mean about making sure I relax?"

[Bandit Keith]

''You probably won't like it at first if you ever do ever even start to like it''Osono said as she had taken the advantage that despite her insistence that Kiki use this bathroom for pretty much anything Kiki barely had so it was easy to keep things like the youth/teen diapers she had got Kiki which do to a small medical supply store that she had found had some printed diapers in Kiki's size she got those instead of the plain ones still she produced from a closest such a package aswell as some childish clothes that most are age neutral honestly but afew adorable oversized young girl clothing items are in the mix amoung afew other things of this kind of nature.''After all child are the most relaxed and least stressed''

[JustJoe]

Kiki bristled at the sight of the diaper. She recognised it for what it was by the babyish cartoons printed on it but it also looked much bigger than an infant's diaper. With a sense of foreboding Kiki recognised that the diaper would probably fit and was intended for her, along with the childish dress. She stuck out her arms in protest and recoiled.

"Oh no. No Osono, everyone will laugh at me." She sniffled. "Are you doing this because I wet the bed?"

[Bandit Keith]

''The only ones you'll wear outside the house are the age neutral clothes Kiki I promise,inside is a different story unless someone else is around then age neutral will be okay inside''Osono assured on the clothing matter but she shook her head on the accusation or assumption Kiki voiced

''No I'm not doing it because you wet the bed,as I'm not like my mother believing such treatments would fix a problem you can't help. Granted I was planning to have you be padded at night in afew days as I was going to buy you a new bed then ''Osono spoke on that matter
