Most stories build up the romance between love interests in between the bits of action, when the characters in question can set their troubles aside long enough to focus on one another. Some stories, however, either don't care enough to separate the romance from the action, or simply don't want to. Typically played for comedic effect, though occasionally done in a dramatic manner, this is when the lovebirds in question will continue to flirt and romance one another even while the bullets whiz past them. More specifically, this trope is characterized by both the presence of a danger to the protagonists/love interests, and the protagonists' ambivalence to the danger's presence while focusing on their romantic relationship. Depending on the circumstance, this can be used to serve a variety of purposes. Quite frequently, this can be employed to show, in a dramatic fashion, how much the characters care for one another by declaring their love or by sharing The Big Damn Kiss during the height of a climactic battle. Equally as common, flirting under fire is used for comedic effect by having the characters flirt and be cute with one another during a tense moment of action. The comedic application of this trope can also be used between two villainous lovers, often to illustrate their evilness by taking pleasure in death and destruction. This serves as a case of Truth in Television, since the adrenaline rush brought on by imminent danger could enhance romantic desire, and although it strains credulity to see two characters lock in a kiss during a firefight, it can happen. Compare Glad-to-Be-Alive Sex, as well as Coitus Uninterruptus, where the lovers aren't aware of a disturbance until they've already begun romancing one another. Sister Trope to Casual Danger Dialogue, where characters crack jokes and one-liners under similar circumstances. Completely unrelated to Flames of Love, although they may overlap. Examples |

Chuck has this with Chuck and Sarah, to a lesser extent when their relationship is still just a cover and more frequently once they finally get together. Notably, Chuck and Sarah's first major quarrel as a couple is aired out while foiling a bank robbery, (actually part of a gambit by Alexei Volkoff to gain access to Chuck's father's files on him). Later, while performing a bank robbery as part of a mission, the two lightheartedly discuss their impending wedding plans, made even funnier with occasional asides to threaten the bank patrons and guards. Being Chuck, these moments are usually played both for laughs and seriously at the same time. | |

Cat Noir of Miraculous Ladybug will frequently attempt to hit on Ladybug during the middle of akuma attacks. Occasionally Lampshaded by Ladybug. (Of course, since Ladybug and Cat Noir don't know each other's civilian identities, it's not as though he has the option of hitting on her under more appropriate circumstances.) | |

Austin Powers: In Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, Austin and Felicity have a tender moment... while standing in a laughably pathetic Death Trap. In Goldmember, Austin's father flirts with Foxxy Cleopatra while tied to a slow-moving machine that threatens to melt off his genitals. But his nonchalance is probably due to the number of times he's gotten out of similar situations, easily. |

Farscape frequently makes use of this trope with Crichton and Aeryn. Even before becoming a couple the two, particularly John, would make flirtatious comments during fights. In the Peacekeeper Wars, not only are the two married by Stark during the apocalyptic Scarran attack on the planet they're defending, but Aeryn is in the process of giving birth. | |

In the Mass Effect games, the climax of any romance Shepard has developed will occur on the ride towards the final battle, knowing full well that they're heading into the shit. In Mass Effect 2 Shepard and co. are knowingly warping towards a suicide mission. In the third game, a romanced Tali and Male Shepard end up flirting heavily throughout the mission aboard the Geth dreadnought, though they do at least keep this to moments where they are not actively being shot at. Eventually it culminates in Shepard and Tali alluding to finding somewhere "louder" for her to sleep when they get back to the Normandy. Depending on who the third squadmate with them, the reaction from Garrus is to snark that they should just Get a Room! already, while Ashley berates them for flirting in the middle of an enemy stronghold. Ironically enough, if you're a female Shepherd who's romanced Garrus, he will try to flirt with you during firefights in the Citadel DLC. |

Girl Genius: Agatha's first kiss with Gil is when she's elated by having fought alongside him and killed the Hive Queen. The fact that they get attacked again straight away gets rid of thoughts of romance for a while... Until he proposes to her five minutes later. Most of the Castle Heterodyne arc involves Agatha, Gil and Tarvek's love triangle, while at the same time they're facing various enemies one after the other and trying to cure themselves of a deadly disease. Agatha's with Tarvek happens just after he's rescued two people from an exploding building and tried to kill an escaped experiment, and she's killed the experiment for him. Oh, and they're in the middle of a full-scale war between a dozen different factions, all of which want them dead. That doesn't mean they can't make time for The Big Damn Kiss and a declaration of love, though. Oh, and most of Higgs' and Zeetha's flirting involves critiquing each other's fighting skills. They meet in the middle of a barfight when he gives her a chair so she can hit people, their idea of a date is her yelling that she's going to beat him up, and The Big Damn Kiss happens in the middle of a stampede of enemies which Castle Heterodyne deliberately redirected towards Higgs specifically so Zeetha could see Higgs fight. |

In one chapter of Glorious Shotgun Princess, a Dragon-Blood warrior pulled into the ME-Verse (courtesy of Autochthon, naturally) tries this with Shepard when a demon horde breaks into the Presidium. Made slightly disturbing in that the Dragon-Blood is from House Mnemon and, for some reason, Shepard looks just like Mnemon who is said Dragon-Blood's grandmother. (For those unfamiliar with Exalted; Dragon-Bloods can live for several centuries) | |

Thinking they are about to die, Max realizes that he's in love with 99 and declares that, if they could get out, he'd marry her. She immediately thinks of a way to escape, and they get married a few episodes later. | |

My Little Pony: Best Gift Ever: During the climax when the group ends up being threatened by magical pudding and a rampaging Winterzilla, Battle Couple Shining Armor and Princess Cadance exchange flirty banter with each other as they get themselves and their friends to safety, almost like they are making a friendly competition out of it. Cadance calls Shining "darling" before saving Rarity, with Shining remarking to their daughter Flurry Heart that her mom sure is something. Then when Shining displays his own skills getting himself and Flurry to safety and landing right next to Cadance and Rarity, Cadance is left blushing at her husband's display and fans herself with a hoof, while giggling and remarking "You're not so bad yourself." | |

In the first Speed film, the protagonists Jack Traven and Annie Porter constantly flirt, with Annie often saying, "Relationships based on traumatic events always end up failing." At the end of the film, Jack repeats the line and Annie replies, "We'll have to base ours on sex, then." He obligingly responds, "Whatever you say, ma'am." | |

In the Doctor Who episode "Day of the Moon", the Doctor and River trade flirtatious quips while Amy Pond is held prisoner feet away, and the Silence trying to manipulate the '69 Apollo moon shot, until Amy snaps them out of it with a barbed remark. In general, the pair seem to enjoy the fighting/running for their lives as much as the flirting in their relationship, and even the villain rolls her eyes at their antics. | |

In the Child of the Storm universe, a key part of the numerous Ship Tease moments between Harry and Carol is their ability to snark/flirt at each other no matter the situation. Seriously, they can be in the middle of a top-secret Red Room base, fighting an immortal necromancer and his hellish minions, or generally facing the actual end of the world and they will still be flirting. In the case of the Red Room base, a disbelieving Noriko Ashida asks if they always do this? The answer is a very unconvincing "no." | |

Person of Interest. Between Root and Sameen Shaw as they're crouched behind a car exchanging gunfire with a heavily-armed Samaritan death squad in "The Day the World Went Away". Shaw is annoyed when Root starts a metaphysical discussion in the middle of a shoot-out, but lightens up a bit when it changes to this trope. | |

Lucky Number Slevin: Slevin and Lindsey build up most of their romance in this manner. Despite the fact that Slevin is on the hit list of two warring gangs, he and Lindsey find time to flirt, go to dinner (where Slevin is able to shadow a man he has been told to kill), and spend a night together. | |
