A Hot Date In The Snow: The Hearts Of Angel And Human Collide! [Karakura Festival Event]

Despite the confidence she was exuding and the calm expression on her face, Kazumi was flipping out on the inside. This was her first official date with the ice fairy and she was just a teensy-weensy bit nervous of the whole affair. She knew she had no reason to be given Cirno’s personality, but she just simply couldn’t help but worry about the smallest details as she followed her adorable angel. She didn’t want to think she was just being silly, so she chalked it up to first date jitters which was experienced by a majority of the population. The thought set her mind at ease, but just a little bit.

She bite her lower lip as her blue eyes swept over the area, her mind instantly taking note of every vendor, food stand, and activity stall within her eyesight. She mentally applauded whoever had set the festival up for it was obvious a lot of work went into ensuring everyone could have a good time. Something told Kazumi that there would be an endless line of games she would play with her fairy, food she would consume, and trinkets she would purchase as souvenirs. She even made a mental note to get Cirno something nice before the end of the date before focusing all of her attention on the angel.

She could tell her face was red for the mere thought of Cirno winning her one of those giant plushies caused her heart to flutter. If it wasn’t, will kiddos to her for not wearing her heart out on her sleeve, though she had absolutely no problem if she was. She twiddled her thumbs for a good second or two as she looked away, her face growing redder at the thought of her angel knowing that she kind of, sort of, liked anything and everything stuffed. Despite being sixteen, a really mature sixteen-year-old may she add, she still had a host of stuffed animals and plushies from her childhood hidden in her closet. She didn’t get them anymore, but she marveled at her collection on occasions and adding several others to said collection wouldn’t be bad. The only exception to these plushies was that they would go on her bed or be displayed proudly on her vanity instead of whisked into her closet as if they were a secret she didn’t want to get out.

She mumbled out, glancing back at her angel after the words had left her mouth. If it were possible, Kazumi theorized she had turned several more shades of red, but she wouldn’t allow her mind to focus on why. She didn’t need to contemplate it for she knew the reason deep down inside. With no intentions of trapping herself within her own mind so that she could listen to her own jumbled up thoughts, she directed her attention to something else. That something just so happened to be Cirno’s second question which so happened to pertain to her appearance obsessed parents. She chuckled, nervously.

“No. They mean well. I’m use to their, uh, antics.”

Onto another subject!

“Uh. Er. Is there anything you would like in particular, Cirno? Like a necklace or bracelet?”

The sight of the flush red Kazumi was enough to make Cirno's heart melt over with an utter sense of contentment. The reason why this feeling overflowed within The Angel's body is because she could feel and see the sense of affection being reciprocated within her lovers eyes. And, to be loved by another, felt more than enough for her to be happy and smile back at her partner with the utmost of happiness.

In fact, in that moment, Cirno wondered if this is what it truly meant to feel the emotion known as "love". There was a heaviness filled deep within her chest, and even if it was something as casual as a date, it still felt magical and wondrous. It was as if everything around them was painted in gold and as warm as a summer day. Perhaps that was just the power of having a mate, or maybe it could simply be her intense adoration for the human; but Cirno truly didn't care which it was at this point.

All that mattered in this moment was spending the day with her most precious girlfriend and enjoying the most out of this relationship.

So, with that simple sentiment in mind, The Angel Of The Ice darted off towards the wooden cart stand before them. Of course, this wasn't the olden days of living. It was the 25th century. Hence, before them were numerous holographic screens with targets on them. They all were moving at break-neck speeds and the objective was to shatter them all before the ten second timer went off.

If victorious? The winner could choose any sort of stuffed animal in the cart. As there were frog plushies, kitten plushies, dog plushies and almost every other animal you could think of without going into an uber long list of them! Eyes darting back to Kazumi, the icy eyed fairy gave a quick wink of the eye to infer that she was indeed about to give it one hard whirl!

"I'll get you all of them. Don't worry!"

This time, instead of a simple peck on the cheek, the Angel of The Ice got hungry and ravished her with a quick kiss across the lips. By doing this she would feel a rush of heat surging within her body and felt totally energized to tackle this little challenge before. In fact, one could even see the heart shaped pupils forming behind the eyes of The Iramasha as she grinned mischievously at stealing a kiss from her already nervous lover.

"Antics, huh? I never knew having parents were filled with silly things. I only had a mother and she just let me do whatever I want!"

Snickering like a mad woman, The Winter Fairy was still pretty high on her love-spell and felt just happy even saying something as dumb as that. Everything just felt -- fuzzy.

But -- she had a match to win! So her demands could be met later.

With a press of a white holographic button, Cirno confirmed her entry into the cart stand-game-a-thon. After going a series of dull and boring data inputs to register herself, The Angel of The Ice paid one thousand yen to enter -- and took full advantage of The Iramasha Guard's massive bank account to pay for the game. Then, when registered, a blaring "BRRRRRRRRRRRRR" sound grumbled across the area and signified her to begin whenever.

"For Kazu-Kazu!"

And with that, The Holy Child grinned wildly and shot off ten heart shaped blast upon the start and shattered all of the energized holographic targets in one dazzling display of ice, light and love. As, after each target was smashed to a fine oblivion, plums of pink smoke filled the range and one could outright sense the warmth from Cirno's heart through them. It would give a sense of satisfaction and happiness to all those around them as some of the crowd just felt -- love struck -- from her influence alone.

So who knew how Kazumi would feel from this miasma easing into her nostrils~

None the less, the dumb-founded shop clerk kept his end of the bargain and allowed The Angel to pick out her cherished toys for her beloved.

With a quick turn of her right index finger, Cirno pointed at the lion and grinned at her partner:

"You should totally get a lion because it's gold and cuddly -- just like you are!"

After uttering those words out in a most cherry tone, The Angel Of The Ice would then jump and hug the neck of Kazumi with a huge splattered across her face once more.

"But seriously, what do you want, Kazu-Kazu? There are so many animals.... =w="

Moving from topic to the next, there was then the sound of fingers snapping as Cirno then recalled that she asked her a question earlier about what she wanted from the festival.

....

"We should go to one of those photo booths and take a picture together! Then we both can get lockets of one another to share!"

If she should accept that answer, then the next destination after this would be the kiosk stand in order to take a couples picture with one another and soak up the festival a bit more than they already have.

Heart still thumping with as much anticipation as when this date began, Cirno was as happy as could be when clinging to her lover.

This type of warmth was not one she wanted to let go anytime soon~
