Summary
During their off season, Reo and Nagi typically treated it as an “early retirement”, which consisted of Reo picking up her forte of being the heir of Mikage Corp and Nagi turning herself in a “trophy housewife”.
Reo made a habit of telling her treasure that she didn’t need to change herself once they both retired from football, yet her words fell on deaf ears as Seishiro only sulked at the rejection. Really, Reo found it endearing that her wife was making such an effort, but she’d rather not have another repeat of coming home to find the penthouse smelling of burnt food and still having remnants of smoke.
“The recipe was tricky, Reo.” Seishiro claimed after ordering them takeout that night. “Too many parts made it a hassle, and when I went back to the steak, it was black and smoking.”

Summary
“I didn’t know Reo then. Don’t make it into a big deal, it doesn’t matter anyways,” Nagi stated, crouching to help Reo stand back up. However it didn’t matter as Reo lunged, taking Nagi down with her and the two rolling around on the pitch alone.
Purple eyes intensely looked at hers as they laid on their sides. Reo grabbed onto Nagi’s hands, squeezing them with her declaration. “You deserve to have a big deal made about you, my genius!” She said it like it was a matter of fact. “Next birthday. We’ll spend your next birthday together, okay?”
It's Nagi's birthday a week after her lock off and Reo comes to spend it with her... right?

Summary
There wasn't any world where Reo wouldn't automatically recognize Nagi just from her silhouette.Nagi had gone through Wildcard. The same girl she so desperately wanted to hold was now standing on the pitch, rebuilt by whatever fucked up ideology Ego shoved in her head. Through her internal panic, Reo froze when those big, gray eyes fell and looked around, dejection visible to perhaps only Reo as she resigned herself to the team she was assigned.
Nagi is not happy to be locked off, so she does what any sane person would do. Blackmail.

Summary
“Nagi, do you ever think about love?” The words fly out of Reo’s mouth before he can examine them.
“Love...” Nagi drones, as if testing out the syllables, before grabbing the television’s remote to pause the film. He crosses his arms and scrunches up his nose. “Romance is fun in games and movies, but…”
Afraid he won’t register what Nagi’s about to disclose next, Reo commands his subconscious, which has been as clamorous as a jet engine, to shut the fuck up. “But…?”
“It would probably be a hassle in real life.”
A single casual question about love turns Nagi and Reo’s world upside down. For better or for worse.

Summary
“Why–” Reo starts, but never gets the chance to finish.
Nagi brings up a hand and runs his fingers along the edges of the mark on his collarbone, more delicately than Reo thought he was capable of.
“Hey, Reo,” he says blankly. “I have a soulmate, I think.”
Or: Reo and Nagi have been attached at the hip for eight years. They've yet to receive their soulmarks, but everyone knows it's only a matter of time.
They're soulmates. They must be.
