Summary
And now, even if for a short time, Reo was back in Japan. After not hearing anything for years, in true Reo fashion, he materialized. Only this time, it was in the form of thick stationery folded neatly in a crisp envelope rather than the embodiment of an angel in a high school stairwell.
Nobody puts on a party like a Mikage, much to Nagi's dismay. Four years after the end of Blue Lock, Reo and Nagi have drifted apart for reasons unknown to him. Determined to pick up the pieces, Nagi attends the annual Mikage Halloween party with the intent to salvage what's left of their relationship, and hopefully nurture something stronger in its place.

Summary
It’s under the influence of Reo’s gravity that Nagi has changed; temperature and pressure metamorphizing him from dolomite to marble, a superior form he could’ve never achieved alone. Never wanted to achieve until meeting Reo.
Reo is the center of Nagi's universe. Nagi's determined to help him understand.

Summary
Reo’s thumb caressed Nagi’s hand, drawing Nagi’s eyes to him. Where Nagi found the tank in front of him to be a bit overwhelming, witnessing it through the filter of Reo was much more relaxing and beautiful. As he watched how Reo’s eyes reflected the cool waters of the tank, beautiful lavender mixed with cerulean and shining bright with wonder, Nagi wondered if Reo felt that way sometimes. That stopping work meant he would drown.
During a much-needed off-season, Nagi is annoyed at how much Reo continues to work. He uses his genius to think of a way to help. His success rate is questionable.

Summary
Nagi’s chest tightened as the final words of the ritual were spoken. A blade glinted in the firelight, held aloft by the high priest.
Reo’s gaze flicked to Nagi, and in that moment, he smiled—soft and radiant, as though he were not about to die but simply saying goodbye.
Nagi’s breath caught. His body screamed at him to move, to do something, to save the only person who had ever made him feel alive.
But he didn’t.

It's business as usual, just the end of another practice day in Blue Lock, when Otoya Eita, with all his curious nonchalance, bluntly speaks brave words into the air:
"Hey, don't you think Reo's nape is kinda... ero?"

Summary
A little locker room quickie in between trainings.
-
Reo is too much sometimes, Nagi thinks, as he looks down with hooded eyes and bated breath at Reo nuzzling the palm cupping his cheek.
He already knows something's going to happen when Reo looks at him and grins that cheeky grin that tells Nagi he better watch with both eyes open.
It was just supposed to be a small kiss—because that's all they've been doing. Stolen kisses in between trainings.
But now Reo's eyes are crinkling with mischief, and it's between Nagi and Choki just what that look does to him and his heart.
And recently, his dick.

Summary
Nagi likes it—the way Reo looks when he's so unsure around him. The way his eyes flit around nervously, thinking about whether his actions would be welcome. The way his fingers would twitch, struggling with himself and how much he wants to touch. How much he likes Nagi. And Nagi finds himself fascinated, like a curious, observant child, about how no matter what Reo says, he still can’t stop himself from reaching out to him.
or:
It’s on the third week of being together again in Manshine City, a few days after their match with Bastard München, that Chigiri finally locks in on him with a sneer and says, “You're doing it on purpose, aren't you?”
“What's on purpose?”
“You know.”
“I don't know what you're talking about.”
“Stop playing with Reo's feelings.”
“I'm not.”
“You're not the one who had to sleep in the same room with him while he bit his lip raw to stop himself from crying every night.”

Summary
"What's that look for? You wanted me to feed you, didn't you?"
Nagi pouts, and Reo has to tear his gaze away from Nagi's mouth as he parts his lips to take a small bite out of the Pocky despite his petulance. "Not like that," Nagi mumbles, and is it a trick of the light or do Nagi's cheeks look just a little bit redder?
Ah. Reo tamps down a smile as he figures out exactly what Nagi's playing at. How cute. Maybe he'll tease him a bit more before giving him what he wants; Nagi's not the only one who knows how to play coy, after all.
"No?" Reo continues to hold the stick close to Nagi's mouth. "Then how else am I supposed to feed this to you?"

Summary
Seishiro supposes he's never believed in fate, never believed in the idea of a predetermined future. He's never subscribed to the idea that things happen for a reason, but he supposes that might be in part because nothing ever really happened in his life to begin with. At least, not until recently.
Now, though, he looks at Reo, and he wonders.
After spending his whole life letting everything pass him by, Nagi realizes he's found the first thing he wants to hold onto.

Summary
On Monday, Nagi goes to the grocery store.
He doesn’t have to. He has enough money to get groceries delivered for the rest of his life. But he wants to, because he likes finding things for Reo at the store. It’s different than if he’d just opened Instacart and told Reo that he’d added these little lion-shaped gummies to their cart just because.
He likes saying I saw these and thought of you, Reo.

Summary
“I- I- P—p-please go out with me!” Ichika says.
The class goes quiet. She feels all their stares burning into her back, and waits, palms sweating.
“Oh,” Nagi says. “No, sorry. My boyfriend wouldn’t like that, and upsetting him is troublesome.”
Nagi Seishiro reveals that he has a boyfriend, but nobody believes him. Obviously, there has to be something else going on... right?

Summary
"Falling asleep in the department store, Nagi?"
Nagi opens an eye, just one, seeing Reo on the ground below him. He closes it, hoping that if he pretends to be dead Reo might go away.
“Nagi.” He calls again, voice ticking up. “C’mon.”
Reo waits for him at the bottom of the coat tower, eyes bright and skin glistening, dressed from his morning workout. Nagi tries to lean onto him but Reo is stingy today, deftly slipping out from under him when Nagi goes to relieve himself of his own weight.
“Lungs collapsed. Cells dead. Heart stopped.” Nagi complains from the floor, his feelings rather hurt.
Reo just shakes his head with a fond sigh, offering Nagi a hand up. “That’s how your body always is, my treasure.”

Summary
"Would you keep playing football if it was for me?" Nagi says. His heart is racing. He presses the heel of his hand to his chest. "Not for the World Cup. Not to prove your parents wrong. Just—" his voice cracks, and he runs his tongue over the roof of his mouth before he gets the words out. "Just for me. To make me happy."
Reo is quiet for a while before he laughs. It's subdued, and his heart isn't quite in it, but it's better than how he was before and Nagi allows himself to celebrate that small victory. He hopes for one brief second, and then Reo speaks and his world falls apart.
"I can't, Nagi. I'm sorry."

“—you know, they call him the treasure of Japanese soccer—”
“Treasure?” Nagi interrupts, all thoughts of the shorter article leaving his mind. He frowns, finally glancing back at the main picture. “This chibi?” he asks, and he can't help the hint of derision slipping in his tone as he eyes the black-haired player in the picture.
"No, no," Reo corrects, tapping his finger on the second figure in the picture. "The good-looking one."
Nagi blinks slowly. "Good-looking," he repeats, and Reo's eyes dart to him before darting away back to the picture.
"Err, yeah," Reo starts. "You know, handsome. Kind of in foreign-looking way, right?"
Nagi doesn't see it. He bites his tongue before he can say as much, but he can't help but prod for more information anyway. "Is it the hair?"

Summary
“What the HELL is that,” Reo wheezes out. “Chigiri, what—what is that—”
Chigiri glances at his phone. “Oh,” he says blandly. “Yeah, didn’t I tell you they primarily make ship art?” He squints at Reo. “This isn’t the first time you’ve seen a ship account, why are you acting so—”
“They drew Nagi,” Reo shrieks, pointing an accusing finger at Chigiri’s phone, “shoving me into a wall—”
“It’s called a kabedon,” Chigiri says unhelpfully. Reo’s mouth flaps open and closed. Chigiri sighs. “Why are you so scandalized by this? I’ve seen you not even flinch at stuff way more scandalous than this.”
“Because it’s Nagi,” Reo stresses. “Give—give me the phone back—” He scrabbles for the phone in Chigiri’s hands, and once he’s got a hold of it, he brings it close to his face so that his nose nearly touches the screen. “And we’re kissing?”
