    “KIKI STOPPIT!”

    “You’re not HELPING!”

@bornspellcaster​: Deep breath. “When you were four you jumped on a griffin’s back and took a joyride into the sky.”

    “Oh...huh...well, I bet Goldie did lots of more rash things than I did!”

    “Uncle too. I can’t be the only Wittebane of this generation to make a few reckless choices.”

    Noel just laughs and easily dodges the house spirit.

    “Oh my, look at the time! Gotta run, byyyyyyeeeeeeee~”

    One of the problems is that Noel simply doesn’t remember. Huge chunks of his childhood were wiped out when he cracked his skull in several places. Many of those memories happened to be the good times with the little house spirit as she raised him and his sibling. After losing that, he became more distant and even somewhat hostile to her; recalling the grumpy old nag with a few soft spots here and there.

    But with Raine, he knows everything. Every kind touch, every nice word, every sincere gesture. It’s the most love he can ever recall having in his life. And though knowing that going against his uncle is a very dangerous thing, and they must have known the risks...he still can’t accept it. Already uprooted from one life and just beginning to settle into another...

    He’s lost his temper.

    A slight adjustment of his grip and the staff sends out a beam of ice, encircling Kikimora far beyond her height. Noel lands on the edge of it, years of experience with parkour and other physical abilities keeping him from slipping off. The staff is now pointed at her, thrumming with magic older than the both of them combined.

    “Where is Raine Whispers?! Tell me right now!!!”

✦ 🐦︎ ✦ @bornspellcaster​ replied: Kiki: witches were burned Noel, there I said it.

    He just blinks.

    “If you think a barebones explanation like that is enough to satisfy me, then you must have some kind of weird amnesia about Wittebanes.”

@bornspellcaster​: Kiki sneers angrily as she finds herself tightly wedged in the dusty space the two are in, and feeling the boy’s shoulder against hers she growls and sharply nudges the impertinent brat away. “Stick to your own side of the basement, you insubordinate little-!” Okay, deep breaths. Can’t afford to claw out the little vermin’s eyes right now—at least not without an excuse as to how it happened. “I should not be the one doing this, you should! Half of this is your useless junk!”

    Of all the insufferable, miserable, terrible things he’d been forced to endure in his 16 years of life, this has to be near the top of the list. Working with Kikimora for any reason. Her ire is a vicious and nasty thing, and she seems to really take quite the large amount of delight in focusing it on him and Goldie. Noel really isn’t sure what he himself ever did to her, unless she just clumps him together with his twin like everyone else does.

    Then there’s the fact that she tried to kill him a month ago. Feed him to her weird finger dragon over the Palismen issue.

    “Y’know, this isn’t...isn’t exactly my idea of fun either.” He shuffles away a little more to give her the space she oh-so desperately needs. Truth be told, Noel would rather do this on his own. There’s just one little issue---

    The teenager hisses when his broken shoulder bumps against a box, held in a sling and covered in healing runes. His left shoulder seems to have some sort of magic target on it, as that’s the part of his body he’s had the most injuries happen. “It’s not...not junk. I use this stuff.”

    Perhaps at first glace it’s junk, a lot of it is scrap metal, circuit boards, wires, and other similar items. But he does use them, to fix their artificial staffs, to deal with the kitchen ovens and other appliances, even take care of the pipes that run through the castle when no one else will.

    “Less complaining, more working.”

    Noel can’t bring himself to disagree there. He just let’s out a hum and sinks further into the couch cushions. His eyes are burning, but every time he closes them he either sees tar dripping from his nails, or his uncle sobbing like a child.

    One day passed ‘The Incident’ and everything still feels extremely off kilter. Hasn’t seen Belos, or Goldie, and is stuck in the same room as a very sick Kikimora with servants bringing them food and medicine.
