Imagine Nagi Comes Home To Ba-ya Waiting By The Door To Give Choki Back -bc She Follows Bltv- And Choki

Imagine Nagi comes home to Ba-ya waiting by the door to give Choki back -bc she follows bltv- and Choki has a small bump on one of its bulbs. When Nagi asks about it Ba-ya informs him that some time after they left Choki sprouted a flower bud but it hadn't bloomed. Nagi doesn't say anything and just takes his pet back.

Months later, Nagi has moved on to another team and is actively chasing his own goals, regularly checking on Reo through bltv to see how he's doing. Despite not wanting to play with Reo anymore, he's still invested on his ex-partner's dream. That's why it hurts to see how emotionally vulnerable he left him and how, despite the time that has past, Reo's smiles are rare and usually fake. (He's been around both the fake ones and the sincere one long enough to know) Yet, he's very proud of Reo for challenging the world on his own, he just wished he was brave enough to actually tell him.

Choki's flower bud had grown a bit bigger and started opening. That made Nagi very happy, to see Choki change and grow with him, despite being just a plant.

Finally, the day his team is facing blue lock in the tournament comes and the thought of seeing them all again excites him the same amount as it scares him. One specific face haunts him the most. He decided to focus on the chance of fighting Isagi again and not on what would he do once he saw Reo. And he was so busy with this that he forgot his morning routine of pricking his finger.

He remembered once he was at the door and decided to go back to his room to say goodbye and ask Choki to wish him luck (although he knew the cactus wouldn't answer him, he'snot crazy) What he hadn't known was that, under the pale moonlight, Choki had blossomed a deep purple flower, sitting atop one of it's bunny ears.

Nagi stood frozen by his bedroom door. Then, he took a deep breath and, as he released it, felt a weight being lifted from his shoulders. "Right. Thanks Choki. I'm going now."
