question
meaning expressions japanese-to-english
キッチリした性格の人 >>What does this mean about a person characteristic?
As C1 wants to get sweets for the reward of showing around a magic school.

It depends on the way of C2 saying though, it should be “shrewd” or
“calculating” for the magicians‘ personality.

Probably “shrewd” fits in the context since “捻くれた“ has been used after that.

answer
Depending on the context, きっちり could be translated as “tight”, “exact”,
“punctual”, “proper”, etc.

If someone is described as キッチリした性格の人, she would most likely be dressed
neatly, keep things well organized, make plans meticulously, follow rules
strictly, never be late to appointments, etc. In short, she is the opposite of
いい加減な人.

As C2 has learned, C1 and her colleagues are not that kind of people. Yet she
didn’t forget to ask for a reward for her small favor to C2. C2 saw キッチリ-ness
in that.
