Soapy fun! [Open]

Summary: Kotaro is 'working', bubbles ensue, come and visit him!
Warnings: None

Kotaro worked in the toy shop, but after proving that his ability to count up money was not great, his concentration span almost none existent and his demeanor anything but professional there wasn't much he could actually do.

He was adorable and tiny though and the shop was loathe to fire him, so he had become a toy tester, which suited him just fine. Today though his job was to lure people into the shop, and he was doing it with bubbles! Armed with a bucket of soapy water and a giant bubble maker he was running up and down the street making huge bubbles.

"Do you want a go?" He asked anyone who looked the slightest bit interested.

Becca laughed softly at the little boy, reaching out to take the bubble maker. "All right, let's see... Maybe I can put you in a bubble..."

"Hello Becca," Kotaro grinned at her, "Do you think you could?"

"I could try," she teased, holding the bubble maker for a moment, then bringing it down swiftly over his head. She managed to get him half encased in bubble before the thing popped, and she laughed brightly about it. "I was close!"

Kotaro burst into laughter when the bubble popped around him. "Can I try and put you in one?"

"Sure," she said, passing the toy back to him. "Can you reach high enough?"

No, he couldn't. But he looked around and found a wall to clamber onto, he dragged the bubble maker around and brought it down on Becca's head, it popped on impact showering Becca with soap.

Becca just found it adorable, and she moved to try to pull him in for a hug after the bubble popped.

"Good try, kiddo."

Kotaro grinned and wrapped his arms round her hugging. "Do you want to go to the toy shop Becca! You can maybe buy a bubblemaker of your own and then you can have lots of fun!"

He is trying really hard.

She laughed softly and patted his head. "I guess I could buy something, but I don't really need any toys. Can you think of someone who I should buy a toy for?"

"Why don't you need any toys!" Everyone liked toys right? "I am sure you will find something fun!"

"I have all the toys I need," she said playfully, holding up her hands and wiggling her fingers. "Right here."

He pulled a face, "What's that supposed to mean?"

She reached into her school bag and pulled out a notebook, carefully turning the pages before turning to show him a picture of herself as an angel with clockwork wings, wielding a flaming sword. "I can make anything happen."

"Wow! That is amazing!!" Kotaro grinned staring at the picture, the bubble maker forgotten. "Can you show me? Can you draw me?"

She laughed softly and reached out to pat his head. "Another time. But sure."

Kotaro's face fell, why not now? "Can't you show me now?"

"Aren't you working now?" she teased, packing up her notebook again. Then she reached out to try to tickle him.

Oh yes! That was true! Kotaro squirmed as she tickled him, "Beccaaaa I'm working!" He whined, trying to wriggle out of her grasp. "I've got important work to do!"

She laughed and let him go. "So~. Who should I buy toys for?"

"You're friends of course!" He grinned, because if she didn't want toys herself he was sure her friends would like some!

"You could get some toys that you could play together!"

"But most of my friends are my age. And once you get this big, toys aren't as interesting," she explained gently. Come on, Kotaro, tell her to buy toys for you.

"Really?" Kotaro blinked at her, "That's really sad, toys are fun!"

He couldn't imagine not wanting to play with toys!

"There's other fun things to do when you get bigger, though," she said with a laugh. Still, if he wasn't going to get the hint on his own...

"What kind of toys do you like? I can buy some for you!"

"Really? Like what?"

His question though was forgotten in his excitement at her next words. "Really? You would buy me toys!" He bounced but then remembered his manners and stood still shaking his head.

"It's okay Becca you shouldn't buy me toys, you should buy things for yourself!"

"All I need are notebooks and pencils, though," she insisted, ruffling his hair gently.

"You could buy some crayons, or colouring pencils! They sell those at the shop!" Then she would be able to draw more things!

Well, she had to admit that coloured pencils did actually sound fun now that he mentioned it, but she was determined to get something nice for the little boy. So she giggled and flexed her fingers before reaching out to try to tickle him. "But what should I buy for you, you silly little thing?"

Kotaro giggled and squirmed away, "It's okay Becca really I shouldn't ask you for things!" His brother would be mad at him if he heard he had been greedy and got people to buy him things, and even though his brother wasn't here Kotaro tried to remember what he had taught him!

"If you're sure," she said dismissively, deciding that she'd buy him an art set, too. "I guess I'll go look around, then," she offered, heading for the store's entrance.

"Okay!" Kotaro smiled at her and waved before going back to making giant bubbles, glad that he had got someone to go to the shop!

"Bubbles!" she clops around excitedly when she notices what he's doing. "I've got those in my cutie mark! See?" She turned her back end to show him her flank.

A talking pony! Kotaro's face lit up and he grinned, he looked at the mark and giggled. "You do! I bet you are really good at blowing bubbles! Do you want to play?"

"That's exactly what it means!" She sticks her nose up proudly. "Just hold that out there and watch a master work!" She turned around and looked back behind her. She started flapping her wings with sudden coordination, and the air movement generated from them was quite consistent and gentle. The bubble began to inflate to a huge level. "Yes! Ahaha!" she laughed with delight. She could still do one of the things she was good at.

Kotaro held the bubblemaker still and watched as she flapped her wings. That was amazing! She could make bubbles with her wings. "Wow! That's so awesome!" He watched as the giant bubble floated off and popped in the air.

"Make more!"

"Okay!" She did some more focused flapping. As the bubble grew and became disconnected from the strings, she started walking backwards to use the air from her wings to change the direction and overall size of the bubble. Once she got it high enough, she lowered her front section to angle the breeze from her wings upward to propel the bubble higher into the sky. All the while, she giggled. "This is great!"

Kotaro giggled and clapped his hands once the bubble was free of the strings. "Wow!" He followed the bubble looking up at it, "You are the best bubble maker ever!"

"Thank you!" She stopped flapping to bow, and the bubble started coming back down to earth again. "Whoops!" She tried to get back under it. Pop! It broke, smearing her face and hair with soap. "Eeew..."

Kotaro giggled as it popped, "Are you okay? You did really well! Your bubbles are so amazing!" He handed her the cloth he had been given to dry his hands with.

She scrubbed her face off with it, holding the rag with her front hooves. "Bleh, that doesn't taste like the bubbles do at home." But then she smiled again. "This is fun!"

"Well your not meant to eat bubbles! They're for playing with!" It was fun, and he picked up the bubblemaker to dunk it in the bucket again.

"But they're fun to bite! I like chasing little ones around!" She turned again, ready to make another big bubble.

Kotaro brought out the bubble maker and held it still again so the pony could make more bubbles. "Do bubbles taste nice where you come from?"

"They taste better than those," she started flapping again, since the kid liked it so much.

"You must have nicer soap!" He told her with a grin, cheering as she made another bubble.
