What: CUPIDBOTS
Where: EVERYWHERE
When: VALENTIMES DAY
Warnings: None yet, but will be updated if that changes

Ah, February 14th. A day for loving lovers to love... But at Smash Academy, it meant something else...

At the crack of dawn, they appeared. Tiny robotic cherubs wielding bows and arrows. Those who had been at the academy for some time knew what they were: The Cupidbots. Obnoxious, potentially life-ruining robots with one mission: Fire their arrows at unsuspecting passers-by, causing them to fall in love with the first person they saw for the next 24 hours. They would be gone by the next day, but still for the best to try and avoid them.

WHAT DO?

That man, that voice--that smile. Rick felt a shiver run down his spine, both in fear and outright rage.

"You again!" He reacted without thinking, much like how they did the first time they met.

Rick punched Ivan in the face.

[ivantheterrible]

Ivan let out a cry of pain and brought his hands up to hold his poor, bruised face. He could feel his eyes well every so slightly with tears from the sudden paint--and the betrayal.

It was short lived and he let out an awkward little laugh before speaking again.

"I probably deserved that~ Ahaha, but come on...I came to apologize..."

Well, no he didn't, but if that's the first step in rectifying this relationship...then he could swallow his pride. For the moment.

[bedroomblackbelt]

"You're apologizin'?" Rick parroted with narrowed eyes. Yeah that was suspicious.

"For tryin' to choke me to death?" IT'D BETTER BE A DAMN GOOD APOLOGY, IVAN.

[ivantheterrible]

Ivan rubbed his cheek and just smiled at Rick all the while.

"Heyyy now, I wasn't trying to choke you to death. You just look...ah...manly when you're struggling to catch your breath."

How's that for an apology AND a compliment? Ivan inched a step close to Rick as he said it, too.

[bedroomblackbelt]

That's. Weird.

"You're weird."

Super weird.

"But accurate." Rick sniffed a little indignantly, NOT WANTING TO ACCEPT HIS APOLOGY but weirder things have happened. He'd at least be content to forget about it for now/the next five minutes.

"What do you want?"

[ivantheterrible]

Ivan would take the insult for now--honestly, it wouldn't be the first or last time he'd heard it.

He took another few steps close to Rick and offered him a little smirk, white canines peeking over his bottom lip.

"I just...wanted to get to know you better."

[bedroomblackbelt]

Every step Ivan took closer Rick took one back. He did not like that smirk he did not like it at all.

"Oh yeah?" He'd try to bluster his way through this, like he would with pretty much anything. "Can't really blame you, I'm rife with interesting but..."

Why couldn't you be sayin' this and have lady parts?

...not that Ivan wasn't rather effeminate looking in the face, but that was beside the point!

[ivantheterrible]

Likewise, for every step Rick took back, Ivan took another closer. It wouldn't be long before Rick would find himself backing up into the wall at this rate.

"Ohh, definitely...you know, I really regret scaring you like I did earlier."

No he didn't. With this new found attraction, he appreciated those memories even more. Those pearly whites of his were shown off even more in a lopsided grin.

"We should talk over lunch."

[bedroomblackbelt]

"Yeah uh about that. I'm allergic. To lunches."

SMOOTH...

[ivantheterrible]

"...," Ivan stared for a moment before cocking his head.

"Dinner, then."

And he smiled.

[bedroomblackbelt]

Rick balked, unable to think of any wittier retort than that.

Damn, this guy's good.

"...No."

[ivantheterrible]

"No...?" Ivan huffs slightly, irritated but persistent. He'd get Rick to go out with him if it killed him.

"Why not? I'll pay."

[bedroomblackbelt]

Yeah it might kill him, or kill Rick. Either way.

"Something ain't right about this."

[ivantheterrible]

Exactly, either way! Ivan would get what he wanted.

"Yeah, I'm usually not so generous." Ivan said flatly, truthfully.

"So take it or leave it, big boy."
