✨Red Knight In Shining Armor ✨

Knight!Vi x PrincessFem!Reader; Part 1

Summary: You, the princess of the northern kingdom, needed a knight to protect you. During the knight selection you watch this certain knight win every sparing match. When this mysterious knight removes their mask, you are shocked to discover a red haired woman under the helmet!

Warning: cuss words (small amount), arguing with your mother, stepfather, mentions of family member passing, subtle flirting (Vi)

A/N: I'm so fucking excited ahahahhaha 🤪

"Milady! Please arise, the sun has set on your window this morning and the weather is gorgeous," Your best friend, Ivy, has opened the curtains for you. She decided to surprise you this morning with some tea she got for you both. You groan loud and roll over. She knows you hate the mornings and prefer the afternoon, but she can't help but tease you when she can. She sits down by you and moves your hair out of your face. You opened you eyes, looking at you bestie. You sit up and give her a hug. It's rare for her to stop by, but you take any moment to be with your best friend. Your maid comes in after to help you dress into your morning gown. After getting dressed, you two shared the tea and had a casual morning talk on your balcony. Anything, but royal related things.

You are the princess heir to the Northern kingdom. Your castle sits on the highest hill of the entire kingdom. The castle is built using stone and white quartz. The gardens and yards is covered with yours and your mother's favorite flowers. It decorates the entire castle. The kingdom is full of inventors and other diplomatic nobles. The nobles, dukes, and baronesses looked up to the kingdom as guidance for the future each and every year. The kingdom knew you were becoming queen soon. The problem is that you had to marry to become a queen. You're parents have been pressuring you to marry somebody, even a princess at this point, and it's your final year. You can't deny no more or else your parents will pick a prince or princess for you. You weren't like the other princesses, who fell for the prince charming in their gorgeous white stallion and long stupid blonde hair. No, you were into the knights in shining armor. You fell in love with the idea of a knight sweeping you off your feet and protecting you from harm. You knew Knights had more sense and they were far more humble than any snooby princes you have met. The good thing about knights, you needed one for protection. You were a target in other kingdoms because of your family history. You could be killed at any moment, this left you vunerable and unable to leave the castle ever. That changes when your father suggested a knight to keep you safe. So today, you got to pick your knight in shining armor.

"Excited?" Ivy raised her eyebrows at you, while sipping her tea. She has been your friend since you were toddlers. She and her kingdom was the only one your parents can trust. That made you happy especially since you werent able to leave the castle walls. You giggle a little, placing your porcelain (f/c) tea cup so elegant and gentle. "For a knight, yes. Anything better than my last knight." You look off into the gorgeous garden you and your mom worked on. Outside the garden, you see a line of new knights doing their usual morning warm ups jogging around the entire kingdom. The Captain, Greyson, always got the knights ready and moving so when you pick, you get to see them at their best. You're excited, you can't lie despite your last experience. "Yeah, that's why prince's are better than knights," Ivy teased you, she loved to debate with you jokingly. "At least, my knight can defend me and keep me safe unlike some snooby prince," you raised your eyebrow at her. "Look, that is one fine man and I will not have you bash him. At least, I'm getting married," Ivy neck swiveled in a sassy way, you laughed at her. You know she's just playing around. "I'm not looking forward to marriage, but I wish marrying a knight was an option." She shrug as you stand up with her for a final hug. She has to leave, but when she visits, you always enjoy her company.

After she leaves, you got to the large yard where you step father is watching the cane corsos on the bench. You smile, you adored your step father. He doesn't judge, he always have advice for you every morning, and he loves his only step child. You could be honest with him and give you the best option of action or decision. Your real father died due to a sickness when you were a toddler. When your mom married your step father, you were 6 years old and he stepped up and cared for you like you were his actual child. So you call him father. He spots you as you approach him in your gorgeous morning gown. He stands up, welcoming you into his arms with a soft kiss to your forehead. "My darling, how are you this bright spring morning? Are you ready to find your knight in shining armor today?" You father sat back down on the bench. He pats the seat next to him, indicting to sit with him. "I'm doing well, father. And I'm not sure, I'm afraid I'll fall in love with a knight or something," You sigh into a giggle as you sit with him. Your father laughs, placing his hand on your back. "Darling, if royals didn't have rules, I would allow that. Yet, dating or even marrying a knight would probably be bad reputation for your mother. Your mother can explain that all," your father begins to stand up. "Now let's go see some awesome sword fighting, yeah?" Your father gave you a goofy smile, that always makes you laugh. Your father was a goofball, but he cared for you. He knew you were upset, but he didn't let you think too much about it. He does that so you and your mother could avoid any confrontation.

"Line up!!"

The captain, Greyson, shouts at the new knights in armor to stand in two rows on each side of the mats with their armor and helmets off. Greyson walks over to you and your father as you two stepped through the huge training room. This huge training room is full of gray and blue matts with white quartz walls. A giant beautiful tree sits in the middle of the room. Dumbbells and wooden practice swords cleaned up for you two to make an good impression. She walks over and bows to you both. "it's great morning to see you two," she glances from the king to you, "I've checked all my knights, you will be thoroughly impressed, I believe." You smiled excited for great sparing matches. Greyson always promised the greatest, and she meant it. You and your father stepped aside far enough to spectate the sparring matches between the knights. You and your father always choose opposite knights to root for, like you two were betting money. Your father has a keen eye for the winner knights, so he would win those bets. They fought fairly with the wooden practice swords and the one on the ground first loses. So far, the matches are coming along good but nothing unlike this upcoming sparring match. You noticed a knight with their helmet still on against another male knight with his off. Yet, this mysterious knight didn't pick up a sword and only raised their fists. The male knight scoffed at their cockiness as the other laughed at the mysterious knights. You tilted your head and look at your father. You father was confused as well but instead of picking sides, he just watched. He was very intrigued. You knew this was going to interesting, you noticed Greyson smiling at you and your father. Greyson counted down and once the whistle was blown, the mysterious knight stand their ground as the male knight started swinging. The male started swinging wildly, as a method to throw off the mysterious helmet knight. Yet, the mysterious knight didn't fall for it. Once there was an opening, the helmet knight swung with a strong upper cut the male chin. You never seen a fight like this before, you were very excited about it. Your father watches with his hand under his chin, he's thinking. You never seen your father so deep into thought about a sparring match, it only makes you wonder. Once you return your attention to the fight, you noticed that the mysterious knight has the male knight pinned. This was the shortest yet most effective matches you have ever seen. Greyson blew her whistle, indicting the match is over. You can't help it, but clap elated. You never seen a fight like that, you have so many questions for that mysterious knight. Even though there was a few more matches, you already made your decision and wanted that mysterious knight to reveal themselves.

You and your father applaud all the knights for their efforts this morning. Greyson held out her hand to you and walked you to the knights. "Princess, it's your pick. Who do you choose?" The knights watches you examine from head to toe, almost pleading with their eyes to pick them. You do take your time before making your final. However, you always find yourself looking back at the mysterious helmet knight. You stand up in front of the mysterious knight. In a clear tone, you state to the knight, "I ask you to remove your helmet." The knight crosses their arms against their armored body. "Not until I know you're picking me, princess," their voice is filter through the metal helmet. You were taken back a little, but you liked the response. "You are my chosen Knight," You smile at the knight. The men around groan and sign, some of them were waiting for a moment to be with you. Yet a new knight gets that chance. The mysterious chuckle through their metal helmet. You step back to look at your father. Your father is happy that you found your knight. The knight steps forward to you, they're a few inches taller than you. The mysterious knight didn't forget your request and they take off their helmet. The first thing that catches your eye is the red hair that makes it way out of the helmet. Once the helmet is fully off, you noticed that the knight is a woman! Your eyes grow wide as you take in this tan red haired woman. You examine her facial features and her facial tattoos that says, Vi. The knight smiles at you, looking down at you. You start to smile as well, knowing your knight is a woman. Your father steps in to look at the female knight, he is also shocked. He clears his throat, "Please join us. I have so many questions as well as my daughter." He smiles at your happy expression. You get so excited, this is a different experience and you have a female knight by your side!

You wait outside the training room with your father. Your female knight comes out in a white tank top with a dark blue hood, that shows her biceps and muscles and black pants that shows her hips and curves. You didn't think you were interested in woman, but she's kinda making you feel things. You throw away that thought as your father steps forward to the female. "What's your name?" Your father asks. "The name's Vi," she stands up straight. Your father begins to walk as you and Vi start to follow. "How long have you been a knight? And how did you even end up becoming a knight, especially as a female?" Your father walks into the backyard garden to the huge tree. There is a rattan white picnic table and bench. Your father sits down, inviting Vi to sit down with you both. "I've been a knight for about... 2 years. I had to become a knight to support my family. I was in the eastern kingdom before I left here," Vi explains. You keep looking at Vi, you're so invested into her story. "That's Piltover, correct? Why did you leave the eastern kingdom?" Your father crosses his arms. Vi looks at the ground, spoke softly, "Their abuse of power and their corrupt politics. I couldn't stay there any longer." Your eyes look at your father, hoping for his approval. He looks at you and giving you the nod of approval. You look back at Vi excited, until you notice she seems a little irritated just mentioning Piltover. "Well, I'm glad you made your decision to serve this kingdom. Thank you for protecting my daughter," After your father words, Vi snapped out of her irritated daze and smiles at the king. "I will protect her at all cost." Vi glances over to you and your heart begins to beat fast.

Evening came around as you inform Vi of her duties as you two stroll the gardens. You two had occasional snacks from the maids. The simple things of protecting you when necessary and her duty to be and go everywhere with you. She's not allowed to leave your side unless allowed by you or your parents authorized it. After Vi understands her duty, you take a seat on the stone fountain. "So please, I wanna know more about you. I mean how did you become a knight? How did you become so strong?" You smile as you almost begin to ramble excited and out of control. She puts her finger to your soft lips to slow you down. She laughs a little, "Slow down, princess. I can only answer one at a time. I'm a knight by force, not really my choice. I became strong through... Uhm... Years of training." Vi removes her finger from your glossed lips. You can tell she's holding something back. She takes a seat by you. "This kingdom is a bit smaller than Piltover, but damn it's more gorgeous I would argue. Piltover was all work, not so much as play. How about here?"

"wait how long have you been here?" You glance at her, tilting your body towards her.

"Uhm, about a week. I didn't get to explore. My first thing was to become a knight here. Anything to erase my mind from Piltover." Vi rubs the back of her neck, a little frustrated.

Damn.

What happened to her must've traumatized her. She just keeps mentioning how she needed to be far away from them, especially from her reaction bringing it up to your father was enough to trigger something. "A-Are you okay?" Your eyebrows furrowed as you gently place both hands on her left bicep. You unintentionally feel up on her bicep, but it caused her to smirk at you. "You like what you feeling, princess??" Vi flexes it while in your hands, causing your face to turn bright red. "S-Sorry!" You're face burns and you quickly released your hands from her muscular arm. Vi can't help but laugh at your shy expression. "Y'know, you have such a pretty face," Vi mentions looking at you head to toe. "S-So you're flirting with me now??" You start to fan your face rapidly. "No, no. I'm just saying 'cause I noticed you haven't married yet. I'm guessing no one has peeked your fancy?" Vi smirks at you, her pale eyes looking at your shy expression through her lashes. You clear your throat, "Y-Yes, no one has peeked my attention quite like I do to them. And I don't think marriage is right for me." Your face finally cools down. Vi looks at the fountain water, with all the little dark gray guppies swimming around rapidly. "Whoa, you must have high standards. I bet they have to be a god or something." Vi jokes, and it makes you laugh. The water reflects on her eyes and makes her pale eyes look more like a vibrant blue. God, her eyes are beautiful, your heart pounds at her beauty. It's ridiculous though, but your starting to convince yourself that you might be into woman. You throw your hair over your shoulder and look into the fountain as well. "Actually, quick the opposite. I don't like snooby princes. I like humble and kind princes, but behind closed doors, those princes doesn't exist," Vi looks at your sad expression that fits your depressing tone. She gently rubs the side of your cheek. It gives you chills, but you can't help to nuzzle her hand. You have a soft spot for comfort and Vi doing this makes you very comfortable with her presences. Vi cheeks turns a little rosy, your so cute to her. You didn't even noticed that your question wasn't answered.

"Ahem. Princess (Y/N), I believe it is my time to be here with you," you and Vi quickly look behind you. A prince, at the height of 5'7, with his doofy thick royal leopard coat. Under his coat, he wears a leopard shirt and dark brown pants. You don't like his attire one bit and it made you visibly disgusted. Vi can't help but snicker out a little. "Please tell your friend to laugh at something else, and that it better not be me." You already hate him, you stand up to him. "You are? I wasn't aware of any guest coming by," you touch your hair, combing it with your fingers giving you such an innocent look. "Why isn't that great?? A handsome prince like me to swoop and--"

"Knock it off. If my parents brought you, let them know they have to consult with me before inviting anyone unexpectedly. I don't do surprises, unless it's my birthday. And I don't think I accepted you to approach me or to chat with me. Please, see yourself out the front gate, I just genuinely don't care about who you are or your height or your favorite snacks," With such short words, you shut him down. He doesn't dare to speak, yet he becomes visible angry as you walk away and go to Vi. Vi stands up and holds out her elbow. You wrap your hands around her bicep. "And this is my knight, please do not assume anymore, it's makes an ass out of you," You began to walk away from the stunned prince. Vi walks you to the castle, but she can't help but keep smiling at you. "Look at the princess with so much spunk, I like that," Vi whispers to you, you can't help but blush. "Oh you'll get used to it if your were in my shoes, it's literally nothing," you two laugh as you walk away. The prince comes rushing around the corner in attempts to grab you by your shoulder. His attempts were quickly sabotaged by Vi grabbing his forearm. He tries to squirm and kick his way out towards Vi, "Get off of me, you filthy rat!!"

"Rat? Eh, I've been called worse," Vi's remark makes you laugh as she pushes him into the ground. He scurries away backwards afraid. "Leave her alone, okay?" She wraps her right arm around your waist and begins to walk back to the castle halls. You are so close to her, you can't help but have your face grow hot again. You feel so safe and comforted. Without her, he could've done worse and you don't want to think about it. "thank you," you mumble out as you two enter inside the castle to the staircase.

"Hey, No monster's gonna get you when I'm here."

"Are you sure she's going to marry? She doesn't like anything regarding marriage and she has to marry to become a queen. I just want the best for her." The Queen, your mother, spoke to your stepfather, going over some documents. "I'm sure she'll find the one. Only time will tell... Y'know, she was wondering if she could marry a knight," Your stepfather constantly tries to convince your mother about being lenient about who you want to marry. Yet, your mother does not want you to marry a random knight. It doesn't look right to the other kingdoms and she was all about looking great.

Incoming loudly through the double doors of this royal ofice, is the shaken up prince at his last experience. The King raises up to look at the shaken quivering sight. The Queen walks over to the prince, "What happened? Who hurt you?" The Queen snaps her fingers as the maids help him up to a cushioned seat. "It's her knight, She assaulted me!! I was just talking to the princess and she threw me to the ground," Your stepfather looked confused. He wasn't dumb, he needed to know the fully story. Your mother, however, was quite the hot head and didn't think things through. So many things ran her head, "a female knight?! And they hurt you?! Where is (Y/N)?!" She begins to scamper off to the castle halls. Your father follows quickly, trying to calm her down. The prince knew what he was doing and just wanted that knight in deep trouble. He shifts in his seat cocky in his cushioned seat.

"(Y/N)!!!" You hear your mother yell down the hall with Vi around you. You quickly turn to see your angry mother speed walking to you as your step father tries to follow. You can see two maids following along as well. "Who's that?" Vi frowns at her frantic motions towards you. "That's my mother. That prince probably said something before I could." You remove yourself from Vi and walk to your mother to stand your ground. "First off, how dare you?! That prince was nothing but kind to you and you let your knight abuse her power!! Secondly, who told you I would accept a female knight?! I didn't authorize it!!" Her yelling echoes through the halls. "Honey, please calm down. Your blood pressure will sky rocket and I authorized it, it made your daughter happy," Your stepfather speaks as he attempts to move her back from you to relieve some tension between you two. "Are you seriously going to take the prince's side without hearing your daughter??" You hear Vi approach next to you with an annoyed voice. Your mother snaps her attention towards Vi and glares daggers at her. "Who do you think you ar--"

"I'm her knight that saved her from that asshole. It's asinine to think that you didn't even care to ask her for her side of the story!!" Vi raises her voice at your mother. "How dare you--!!"

"Mother!!" Your tone causes your mother to snap her gaze to you, "My knight, Vi, is telling the truth. She protected me from him when he was about to grab me and yank me away aggressively. If anything, he's lying to you." Your father steps in front of your mother and he calms her down. He tells her that the maids saw him act differently once they left, which just further proved he was lying. You stepped in front of Vi, as if your protecting her. Vi looks at you confused as you hold her hand tightly. You finally watch your mother calm down and glare at you two. "Fine, I'll accept 'this' for now. I'm on edge and I'll keep an eye on you, 'Vi'. And you're lucky, (Y/N), but next time won't be so great without help," Your mother struts away. Your father sighs and kisses your head as he chases his wife. You feel Vi trying to follow your mother, yet you stop her and hold her back which isn't easy. Vi is strong, but she stops to avoid hurting you. "Are you serious?! You're going to let your mother--"

"Please... Let's just go to my room," you sound like your about to sob, which snaps Vi out her anger for you. Vi takes a deep breathe. While you try to contain tears, you feel yourself be lifted off the ground. Vi has you in a bridal style, she begins to walk you to your room. You couldn't thank her enough, but you just curled up to her which should how appreciative you are to Vi. Once Vi enters your bedroom and closes the doors behind her, you start to sob quietly. You are very upset at the outcome at that exchange. It could've been so much better if you mom just calmed down for a second, yet you had a feeling that day will never come, as you thought to yourself. You were still sobbing with your hands over your face. Vi takes a seat on your bed with you, still in her arms. You hear her starting to hum, to calm down you down. No one has ever done that for you ever not even your stepfather. You almost stopped crying the moment she started as you listen to her humming.

30 minutes may have passed, Vi is still rocking you in her muscular arms. You stopped crying completely as you listen to her and her heartbeat. You almost fell asleep multiple times, but you woke yourself when Vi was about to put you to bed. "Vi... Thank you... And I'm sorry for my mother's behavior" These are your first words you speak to her. "As long as your okay, I'm okay. You don't have to apologize for your mother's actions, she can do that," Vi stands up as she lays you and tucks you to bed. You try to get up, but you were already too damn comfy. Vi sits on the couch across from your bed. "I'll sleep here, okay? So if you need me, I'm right here," Vi takes off her shoes and her pants. You close your eyes so she can undress peacefully. "Oh, you need a blanket right?" You open your eyes and try to get up, but Vi reassures you in time. "No, no, I got a blanket right here. This is actually really comfy," Vi speaks softly and turns to you as you both stare into each other's eyes. "You can sleep on the bed, if you want," You offered, but she immediately shakes her head. "N-No... I'll be fine here. It's easier to protect you this way," Vi smiles as your eyes start to drift off to sleep again. "Good night, cupcake."

I hope they're okay, too. They… I just hope so. On an—unrelated note. Do you know if Rowan knows what… knows that something happened?

Oh, ah. If you want you can talk at me for a bit, Remus of course. I don't mind. It's a great way to pass the time. I can also give you an electric cigar or a candy one as a less lung-destroying imitation.

(We were all there also, earlier, but I won't. Try and remind you what happened, Remus, unless you actively want to try and remember. I know you're frustrated by your memory being unreliable, blocking things away, but it's to be expected with the circumstances. Do you still want me to try?)

[Hi. Lets pretend I didnt forget I had this one in the askbox]

Remus had started to get a bit bored down in the garage of the apartment complex. His hands were itching to create or break something. Instead he kept pretending to twirl his nonexistent mustache.

When he heard your offer of alternatives to cigarettes he quickly shook his head "It's fine. I mostly use smoking as an excuse to meet up with Remy nowadays so uhm if they're not avilable I can just go without it" His fingers kept tapping against his skin as he spoke. He put on a snooby expression and a higher voice "It's not the high you're missing but the addiction taking the pain away! As the lady at rehab said like 5 minutes before I tried to shove the plastic fork into the electric outage again"

About a second afterwards he realized what he'd just said.

"I wasn't an addict! Not that there uhhh be anything like morally wrong with that. I just don't wanna get any rumors started. It was enough of a shitshow when some paparazzi got a photo of Ro parked outside the rehab center"

He fumbled a bit with the ring on his finger while thinking of what to say.

“Y’know I had just taken a lot of different stuff like regularly like maybe 2 to 5 times a week for like a while so after the breakup- and I was already going through a breakdown so when I started showing symptoms of uhm withdrawal- and I was kinda a danger to myself so uh Rowan panicked since she couldn’t watch over me like 24/7 so she like got me into a rehab center for like 2 weeks until the withdrawal passed. Yeah. That’s all.......Just hard to say no when he kept Insisting taking will make me calm down for once and he was just so fucking convincing about how some- a bunch of K and some xanax would help more than the antipsychotics...sorry..im rambling again” He tried to find a way to change the topic while forcing a smile “WAIt did you say a MOTHERFUCKING C A N D Y cigarette???? Oh sign me up bitch!”

He let out a few raspy chuckles on top of that while fiddling with his hands. 

“I don’t think Rowan heard anything of...of....uhm whatever happened. She was a bit away and y’know clubs are pretty loud and uh it’s not exactly uncommon for me to just randomly walk out into a parking lot if I’m overwhelmed so I think she just assumed everything was normal y’know. Just some normal Remusing”

When he was reminded of the party, of his fuzzy unclear memories, he started to chew on the inside of his mouth out of nervousness again. He scratched at his skin with his long unkept nails while you said the last part of your message.

He met eyes with you “I want to remember. You don’t get it, I have to. Please tell me what happened”

hi, dave. life's been really tough recently. could i get a hug, or just some comfort?

“Ey.Must be pretty fuckin´ desperate if ya ask ME for help!” Dave kneeled down nextto the Anon, tilting his head, his mouth in his typical weird smile. “C´mere,you soulless husk. Lemme give ya a hug big enough to reach whoever send ya. Andnow to BIG DICK DAVEY´S WORDS OF COMFORT! LIFE MAY SUCKS, BUT AT LEAST YOU ARENOT STUCK UPSIDE DOWN IN THE VENT OF A FACTORY, AFTER BEING BETRAYED BY YOURHIGHLY TRAINED SPY MICE WHO ARE CURRENTLY EATING YOUR SHOELACES THAT ARE ALLKEEPING YOU FROM FALLING INTO A POT OF BOILING HOT SAUCE. But, eh. That ain´tenough. Doesn’t make it better. Hm. When you´re down and in a hard situation,just do what I´d do! Snort a shitton of cocaine! When ya wake up, you haveLOADS of new things to think about and are MILES away from your troubles!Probably literally, not gonna lie, pal.”Picking the Anon up, he gave them and encouraging throw up to the ceiling, onlybarely missing said ceiling and safely catching the figure again. “And if drugsare too hard to come by or ya think you´re hot shit and are too snooby for uspeasants and our drug abuse, then just know, if ya threaten the right people,you can get anywhere! Look! I managed! And still not in jail!” Phone Guy had listened in and approached shaking his head. “Don´t listen tohim. You´ll make it through it, no problem. Sometimes… sometimes you, uh… justhave to wait things out and accept how they come. Sometimes you, uh- you know.Need to sit back and realize- if it won´t kill you, it has time-““THEY ASKED ME FOR ADVICE!” The Purple Guy hissed at the Phone, clutching theAnon closer to his chest. “GO TAKE CARE OF YOUR OWN SPAWN YOU FUCKIN´ LOSER!” “MY SPAWN IS- FAKE-“ “YA WANT ME TO STUFF THE KID INTO A MAW AGAIN?” “NO!” “THEN FUCK OFF.” Defeated Phone Guy retreated. At least he could say he tried. After he was far enough, Dave put the Anon back down again, for some finalwords. “Don´t cha worry your pretty little head, pal. It´ll be over before youknow it. But your foot down, scream what you want and need and let everybodyelse piss off! Ya deserve happiness and you´ll manage to get it!”

Research for narrative analysis

here are some of my notes for the essay:

Question: Analyse your chosen narrative with close reference to the Hero’s Journey or another appropriate story template.

·        N.B. You may write about the film’s failure to fit a conventional structure.

 What happens in Kiki’s delivery service?

·        Kiki turns 13 and a full moon she decides to leave home tonight

·        She packs her bags mum is worried and brings Jiji

·        Her mum gives her, her own broom and tells her she can’t take the one she made as its too small

·        Kiki leaves with a vague plan on where she is going

·        On the way down she is greeted with another witch ( a fortune teller) who asks Kiki what’s her talent realises she doesn’t know yet and  the witch dives down avoiding the storm

·        Kiki quickly finds cover in a train

·        She is woken up by cows in a ball of hey

·        She takes flight into the city where the civilians are amazed by seeing a witch for the first time.

·        She loses control and flies manically across the city where she is stopped by a police officer

·        The police officer threatens to tell her parents when tombo distracts the police officer and kiki runs away

·        Tombo catches up to kiki and asks her about her flying powers, kiki doesn’t respond as she finds it rude that he didn’t introduce himself by name first

·        As she walks down town she finds osono trying to give back a left behind dummy to a customer. Kiki offers to fly it down to the customer

·        The customer hands a thank you note to kiki to deliver back to osono so she does

·        Osono invites kiki for a cup of tea and introduces herself

·        Her first customer wants to deliver a toy cat that looks like jiji in a bird cage to a child

·        She takes the bird cage a sets of flying high to avoid traffic

·        A gust of wind hits some birds and then gets attacked by crows as she hits a tree near some crow eggs kiki she drobs the cat in the middle of the forest and decides to put jiji in the cage to buy her some time

·        After she delivered jiji she goes looking for the toy and finds it at ursela house

·        Kiki finds that the toy is broken and ursala says she can fix it if she cleans around the house once finished she takes off to save jiji

·        Jiji escapes thanks to a dog helping him escape and brings back to toy cat

·        Kiki helps put some more at the bakery and takes orders tombo walks in and buys a cake then invites her to a flight party and kiki is excited

·        She then gets a delivery request and sets off to the house

·        Two old ladies haven’t finished making a pie and their oven breaks so kiki helps them by using the old oven and in the mean time helps around the house. She realises she is running late to the party and sets of to deliver the baked pie in the pooring rain to a snooby girl who doesn’t apprietiate the pie

·        Her motivation was to save tombo and she took off and saved him

·        The end

 I have decided to use voglers version of the hero’s journey as I feel that it is more generalisable then Campbells.

Vogler

Departure/Separation

Act 1

 1.       Tests, Allies, Enemies

·         “The audience’s first impressions of the Special World should strike a  sharp contrast with the Ordinary World.

·         The most important function of this period of adjustment to the  Special world is … to test the hero, putting her through a series of trials  and challenges that are meant to prepare her for greater ordeals ahead.” Pg.  136

·         “The Tests at the beginning of Act Two are often difficult obstacles,  but they don’t have the maximum life-and-death quality of later events.”

·         “If the adenture were a college learning experience, Act One would be  a series of entrance exams, and the Test stage of Act Two would be a series  of pop quizzes, meant to sharpen the hero’s skill in specific areas and  prepare her for the more rigorous midterm and final exams coming up.” Pg.136

·         “The Tests may be a continuation of the Mentor’s training. Many  Mentors accompany their heroes this far into the adventure, coaching them for  the big rounds ahead.” Pg. 136

·         “The Tests may also be built into the architecture or landscape of the  Special World. This world is usually dominated by a villain or Shadow who is  careful to surround his world with traps, barricades, and checkpoints.”

·         Sidekicks: “…pairings of hero and sidekick can be found throughout  myth and literature…. These close Allies of the hero may provide comic relief  as well as assistance.”

·         “Comical sidekicks … may freely cross the boundaries between Mentor  and Trickster, sometimes aiding the hero and acting as his conscience,  sometimes goofing up or causing mischief.”

·         “The Testing stage may also provide the opportunity for the forging of  a team.”

·         Enemies: “The hero’s appearance in the Special World may tip the  Shadow to his arrival and trigger a chain of threatening events.” Pg. 138

·         “A special type of Enemy is the rival… [who] is not out to kill the  hero, but is just trying to defeat him in a the competition.”

·         “The watering hole is a natural congregating place and a good spot to  observe and get information.” Pg. 140

·         This goes throughout the film as she meets  new allies such as the old ladies and enemies (kinda) the snobby Girl

 2.       Approach to the Inmost Cave

·         “It’s time to make final preparations for the central ordeal of the  adventure.”

·         “As heroes near the gates of a citadel deep within the Special World,  they may take time to make plans, do reconnaissance on the enemy, reorganize  or thin out the group, fortify and arm themselves, and have a last laugh and  a final cigarette before going over the top into no-man’s-land. Pg. 144

·         Last laugh, a joyful time (calm b4 storm)

·         Courtship

·         Beware illusions

·         Threshold Guardian

·         Another Special World

·         Shamanic territory

·         Higher stakes

·         Team pep-talk, ass-whupp

·         Disguise

·         NO EXIT

Between the  Foreshadowing of the blimp and the climax kiki goes to the mentor Ursulas  house and learns she needs motivation to get her powers back her threshold  guardian is her worry that she will never get her powers back but she  overcomes this fear thanks to ursula

 3.       Ordeal

·         Death and Rebirth

·         Crisis not climax

·         Points of tension

·         The mid-point (can also be delayed crisis, but my novel is mid)

·         Witness to sacrifice or death needed

·         Facing the shadow

·         Walk through story in Shadow’s skin

·         Sacred Marriage

·         Negative anima or animus

·         Facing the greatest fear

·         Standing up to a parent

·         Death of the ego

Kiki finds  tombo hanging on for dear life on the out of control blimp due to winds fore  shadowed earlier in the film with the crows

 4.       Reward

·         Celebration

·         Campfire scenes to retell the tale

·         Love scenes

·         Seizing the sword, taking possession

·         Holy Grail (the elixir that heals all)

·         New perceptions, see through deception

·         Clairvoyance

·         Self-realization

·         Epiphany

Kiki is able  summon her powers in desperation using an old guys broom although not  particularly a celebration but more in correlation with seizing the sword

 Act 3

 5.       The Road Back

·         Another threshold

·         Finnish your opponent

·         Chase scenes

·         Magic flight – sacrifice of beloved/sacred objects

·         Setbacks require resolve to finish journey

Kiki rescues  tombo

I have also looked at the book ‘Studio Ghibli the films of Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata’ by Colin Odell and Michelle Le Blanc.

Where it goes over common themes within each of the Ghibli films and their inspirations. I helps to give a good understanding on how the films came about and why they were made the way they were.
