She closed her eyes as the first few snowflakes alighted on her nose, settling comforably on her skin. He couldn't help but be captivated at the sight.

"Ne, my Nanao-chan looks so pretty, savoring winter's first kiss!"

She didn't answer, but her lips twitched a tad bit upwards, as though pleased by the compliment. He took note of it, and tucked it safely into the back of his mind.

(His days never seemed to be complete if he didn't learn something new about her. The fact that he learned new things about her when she seemed, to the rest of the world, as predictable as there are stars in the sky amused him.)

"Don't you find it odd that it's snowing in July?" she said.

"Perhaps we will demand an explanation later, hm? Right now, let's just enjoy the novelty of experiencing winter in July!"

A few kilometers away, an exceptionally gifted young shinigami by the name of Hitsugaya Toushiro was experimenting with the newly-revealed shikai form of his zanpakutou.

Aaawww, that was so sweet...

But you might want to watch out the tenses. Either write in the present or past tense, but don't switch all the time. And don't take this the wrong way at all since I also have to watch for that particular problem.

No worries. After a while of proofreading your work, I find that you end up seeing what you want to see and not necessarily what's there.

Short and sweet is sometimes the best. It's really lovely.

A lovely little fic. I love how it was Hitsugaya's doing, and it was sweet. :D Lovely!

It's almost always Hitsugaya's fault when it snows/hails in Soul Society...XD

And thank you! :)

Sweet fic! Also, you're probably right about Hitsugaya.
