“You might catch a cold, you know?“ ( for kagami ) @grandoux
KAGAMI ALWAYS FEELS SAFEST with a basketball in his hands. ever since he was a kid and was introduced to the game by tatsuya. it was what he used to impress people and then he just fell in love with the game. it was easier to think about basketball than it was to think about anything else. easier to focus on the strategies on the court and what move to make next against his opponent. everything else outside of basketball was too complicated for him to focus on.
take right now for example. kagami’s used to spending a lot of his time alone. it wasn’t anything unusual for him to spend holidays, including his birthday, by himself. he’s come to expect it. what he hasnt’ come to expect is a promise broken by his father. since kagami moved back to japan he was supposed to be living with him, but found himself living on his own. he didn’t complain about it, in fact kagami was learning he prefered it that way, but. . .
but when he’s promised a dinner with his father only to be stood up it makes him feel unsettled and the isolation starts to weigh on him. which is why he was outside in the rain, practicing his three pointers. he doesn’t notice murasakibara until the other speaks drawing kagami’s attention away from his own thoughts.
❛ yeah? it doesn’t matter much, ❜ riko would probably kill him if she found out he said something like that. the last thing he needed was to get sick, but at this point he didn’t really care too much, ❛ what are you doing all the way out here anyway? ❜
