Summary:

While it wasn't the last thing he'd ever thought would happen, waking up bombarded by speculation over his teammates' sexualities wasn't really something Isagi expected. He can't say he didn't see it coming, though.

(Shidou gets it all very, very wrong)

Notes:

hi! a few disclaimers

- PLEASE dont turn off creator style itll ruin everygthign i worked so hard for
- you can scroll through the twitter segments!! EVEN on mobile!! so have fun because i worked really hard to code all of this. im gonan throw up
- this fic switches between POVs -- from outsider POVs to character POVs. the "characters" in the outsider pov (aka not bl characters) arent relevant at all and u dont even have to remember whos who, theyre just there as plot devices haha ^-^
- whatever hcs i have for this fic, you dont have to agree with!!
- i got insane stomcah pains while writing the first chapter because every time ithought about reonagi without my antipsychotics i started getting nauseous and i threw up a couple of times. its okay though. Anything for reonagi
- the html isnt perfect, there will be mistakes and things will look rough, but im not an expert. im sorry for it anyway.....

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

I know some of you guys (looking at you @/seisgf) are probably tired of this topic lol but I swear I think I cracked the code this time. Now, disclaimers, please don't tag any players in this, don't let this thread get to them, DON'T link this thread in public tweets, don't associate my main with this thread and don't be weird.
ESPECIALLY don't let this get to the Mikage family I'm not trying to catch a lawsuit LOL

So, we all know the story of how Reo and Nagi met, so I'm not gonna repeat it. What I AM going to talk about is how Reo says that his life was insanely boring before he met Nagi and used to call him his "treasure" (according to the 1301223 interview w/ @/thurakira right after they left Blue Lock and got scouted to Manshine City). Who says that about a platonic best friend?

I don't need to give you the play-by-play of Reo and Nagi's relationship, but anyone who's seen pictures of them, interviews, or even tweets knows they're extremely close. What some of you newgens may not know is that they had a terrible falling out during BL, as substantiated by this Raichi tweet from last year:

RAICHI @jing… · 01/06/23

reo is a fucking stalker lol. it wasnt always like that thohgu they got in a HUGE fight bc nagi chose to partner up w isagi n bachira instead of reo and reo had a fucking bpd moment and had an emotional breakdown or some shit. idrgaf anyway

Let's ignore him calling Reo a stalker and saying he has bpd (let's not try to diagnose actual people ty!). Jealousy is a bitch!
What I'm focusing on is how Reo and Nagi fought because Nagi picked Isagi over Reo.
There was a lot of drama a while ago about Reo apparently not liking being around Isagi - doesn't this make sense now? He's still hurt over Nagi picking Isagi over him.

Now, let's dive deeper. On 200523, Reo posted a picture (presumably at Nagi's house) and you can see Nagi in the background absorbed in a Valorant match. I won't quote the tweet because I'm too lazy to find it Reo posts TOO much but the caption reads "Valorant is clearly more important." which is obviously a reference to this meme (I couldn't find the original):

The following happened: Nagi replied, "i got three headshots in a row", then Reo, "Nagi, I'm not calling you a good boy, you've been playing and ignoring me for 4 hours straight," then RAICHI for some reason?? Saying "this is why the only girlfriend youll ever get is reo bc hes the only one whos obsessed with you enough to watch you play a shitty game for four hours" +

Nagi then replied "if reo is my wife forever, ill be happy". Now what matters here is Reo's response - he didn't reply in the thread, but ~5m later he posted "I'll be happy too." to his feed with *no* context. In the next few tweets, I'm going to talk about Blue Lock streaming era (aka starting with the U20 match) & then Manshine City era (aka now).

Fans begin to speculate on Reo Mikage's relationship with Nagi Seishiro

Speculation

Crossposted from r/bluelock

I know we usually don't do that Twitter bullshit in here but this is getting a LOT of traction on there. OP is private but someone uploaded the entire thread on a burner account and it actually kind of... makes sense? Idfk man, let me know what you guys think. I always thought Mikage and Nagi were really close, but I thought it was just a friendship thing. If Mikage is actually into Nagi romantically a lot of things will make more sense now... Idk if I can still be his fan though bro.

I don't want to put on my tinfoil hat but doesn't Nagi look kind of uncomfortable with Mikage's behavior sometimes? Like maybe he knows he likes him like that and doesn't feel comfortable. You can see in the thread that Raichi called Mikage a stalker at some point. He just gives off spoiled rich kid who always gets what he wants vibes, but now that's just creepy lol.

I'd like to formally apologize for any of those mentioned in my recent tweets. I want to clarify that I did not mean to speculate on anyone's sexuality, and my words shouldn't be taken as confirmation or grounds for any speculation or guessing when it comes to Mikage Reo or Nagi Seishiro's relationship.

At the end of the day, I'm just a fan who got too excited about my favorite player and read too much into his life. I apologize deeply to all involved.

When Reo was at Hakuho, he was named prettiest boy and prettiest girl because the students "looked around and could not see a more attractive person anywhere in school than Mikage Reo." (source: fourfourtwo)
