WHO: Grimmjow and Salama
WHAT: Cupid's Arrow Mishap...
WHERE: Somewhere in Genessia (very specific)
WHEN: Midday.
WARNINGS: Grimmjow. And Salama. Cupid Arrow. Vocalized hashtags. Selfies. Do you really need more warning than that it's an absolute disaster waiting to happen...

[ Of all the things that Salama wanted to do, look for arrows wasn't really one of them. So she wasn't. She was mostly doing what she usually was enthused with doing, typing on her phone. You know, on her way the hell out of Genessia because a blizzard isn't her thing. Nova City always seems to have good weather, so that's where Salama's on her way too right now, hopping through the snow-covered ground because you know what, scorching the whole street is a fire hazard and not everyone is as heat-resistant as she is. (She still has a couple of floating flames following her both in front and in the back to keep her warm.

And you know, maybe throw a snowball at an innocent passerby while they're not looking. You know, whatever, reach into the snow blindly. It's worth it.

The weird dog said to be careful, which is basically the same as asking Salama not to be careful.

Either way, a certain individual named Grimmjow is getting a snowball to the back of the head if he isn't paying attention. ]

[Grimmjow wasn't bothered by the cold. Not because he had some sort of trick like Salama that allowed him to create fire. The cold just didn't bother him. What did bother him was when he felt a snowball hit the back of his head as he was walking along. He froze in mid-step when it hit him. And then he turned in the direction that it came from and glared at the girl who threw it.

He had no idea that this was Salama..since the most he'd seen of her was her back.]

You got a fucking death wish?!

[hashtagged]

You promised you weren't going to beat me up already, don't forget.

[ If that doesn't clue him in on who she is, the fact that she's kneeling down for another snowball and her wings are visible as she does might clue him in. ]

[grindpantera]

I never- [Grimmjow pauses for a second. Both because he remembers saying that to someone and because he knows those wings.]

You- Salama? [Fuck, he did promise that he wouldn't beat her up...and Grimmjow didn't break his own word. Even if he deserved some sort of retribution for what she did.]

[hashtagged]

[ Salama stands up, holding another snowball in her hand as she stares at him, her other hand on her hip. She was holding off throwing it, but the little flames around her started melting the snow in her hand since she didn't throw it right away. ]

That's me. [ She dropped the already slightly slushy snow and held her hand up to the flame to dry it. ]

[grindpantera]

[Well he knew she was a Fairy or whatever, but he didn't know she could do fiery things. Still, his face turns from a little of surprise to a look of annoyance.] Why the hell did you hit me with a snowball?

[hashtagged]

Because we're both outside in the snow and that's what people do to have fun in the snow.

[ She reached down to get another fresh one from a spot where her slush hadn't landed, this time jerking her hand back out of the snow almost immediately because she pricked her finger. ]

Ow.

[grindpantera]

[Yeah, typically both people are in on the fun and it's not just one of them pelting the other with snowballs. He's about to open his mouth and say something along those lines, but he stops when she says "Ow". He looks from her to the snow.]

Something bite you?

[hashtagged]

[ She looks up from her hand and over at Grimmjow and just kind of.. notices him in a different way. Sure, he was that guy she'd kind of been internet harassing but in person he was definitely pretty attractive.. ]

Not yet. [ She kids. Probably. She holds her hand up. ] Something pricked my finger, I think it's stuck under the snow.

[grindpantera]

["kind of"? No, she's been harassing him pretty badly. And he did nothing to ask for it. He couldn't say he would have been upset if something did bite her. He moves over to where she was and reached down into the snow at the same spot. Whatever it was wouldn't prick him because of his- he quickly snatches his hand back.]

Shit! What the fuck was that? [He looks at his finger and doesn't see any injury.]

[hashtagged]

[ He'd only seen the tip of her iceberg when it came to flame wars. She was pretty famous for them back in Japan. She still considered them civil, even. Well, she had, up until about 15 seconds ago. She wasn't sure what she considered him now. Salama took a couple of steps forward and reached for his hand to look at it. ]

Want me to check it? [ Hey, maybe he needed to be nursed back to health.(?) She could probably google how to fix it if there was something there. ]

[grindpantera]

No I'm- [He as about to jerk his hand away from her as he looked up to her, but he stopped himself. Well..he didn't know why, but now he didn't really mind if she took his hand.]

No. It's fine. I'm not bleeding or anything. [He couldn't remember where he had been going before now. But it didn't bother him, because now that he was looking at her, he only wanted to be where she was.]

What about you? Are you okay?

[hashtagged]

I'm fine. I need one thing though, hold still.

[ Yeah, she's going to totally get up next to him and hold her finger out near his and take a selfie with her other hand. Finger prick buddies. Who also happen to be really really physically close, but if he doesn't mind, she'll just explain selfies to him... ]

Hashtag finger prick buddies. [ She just read that out loud as she typed it, yep. ]

[grindpantera]

[He doesn't mind at all. Honestly he wouldn't hate it if they got a little closer than this. He is a bit confused as to what she is doing, though.]

Did you just take a picture of us?

[hashtagged]

It's a selfie. [ So yes. She shows him the picture on her phone. ]

[grindpantera]

What's a selfie? [Look, Arrancar's don't know about all this hashtagging, selfies and tweeting stuff. Though he wants to hear all about it as long as she is the one telling him about it.]

[hashtagged]

It's a picture you take of yourself. And in this case, you, since you were in my selfie.

[ Hmm... She could teach him. Normally she would mind a little more, especially since she kept intentionally labeling all the people who didn't know how to use the internet with #Welcome2theNet but it was a lot less of a pain now, it seemed. ] We can go somewhere warm if you want to talk about it more.

[grindpantera]

So you have a picture of us together now? I hope you plan to share that with me.

[He thought her with her little fire trick was warm enough, but if she was saying that then maybe it was just because she wanted to be somewhere a little warmer.]

That's fine with me. Where do you want to go?

[hashtagged]

[ Only a couple of seconds later, he would get a message with the photo in it. Salama reached out and lightly pushed the flames with her finger, adding two more so that they could surround Grimmjow and herself so they could walk together. ]

Do you want to take me to get something to drink?

[ Hey, she didn't know what arrancars like and can drink, so coffee or alcohol or smoothies, they were all fine with her. ]

[grindpantera]

I can do that. [He says as he starts to walk along, taking out his device and checking it to see the picture of the two of them. It was cute. He found himself liking this little quirk that she had.]

Where do you want to go for it? [He figured she might want something warm like coffee or hot cocoa.]

[hashtagged]

[ Salama had never actually minded him, more being the type of person who was just bothering him for the sake of bothering him. ]

What's your favorite place? [ She'd been around a bit, but she hadn't been around as long as he had. Not long enough to decide on a place she really liked anyway. ]

[grindpantera]

I don't really have one. [Though he had been here for a while, he didn't really make it a habit to eat at the restaurants and stuff there.]

Some of the food in Nova City smells good, though. [At least from when he walked through there.]

[hashtagged]

I haven't been here long enough to have a favorite, so let's just go to Nova City. I like flame-grilled food, do they have any?

[ It went from drinks to food, somehow.. soon it's just going to be a full-on date. ]

[grindpantera]

[It's totally a full on date.]

I'm pretty sure they do. If we can't find a good place there with that kind of food, we'll just go somewhere else.

[hashtagged]

[ Well if it's a full on date she's gonna full on hold his hand with the one that doesn't have a phone in it. ]

How far are you planning on walking if we can't find a place in all of Nova City?

[grindpantera]

[He's completely fine with that. He laces his fingers with her own.] As far as we need to to find you a place would good flame-grilled food. Why? Do you already know a good place?
