LOL so this was supposed to be @rejectscanon’s birthday fic but it got out of hand and i didn’t finish it in time and now it’s been two years and it’s still not done!!! but basically the name is because it started out as a fun way for me to explore how shadow and oka met and became friends and stuff and then it turned into a deep dive into oka’s relationship with the chronic knee pain that i gave him 👍 here’s a snippet

He can’t— he doesn’t know how to explain it, how to put his fears into words. He doesn’t know how to say that if he loses skating, he’ll lose himself, too.

The next day, a bouquet of red carnations shows up at his front door, with a little piece of paper that has Hiromi’s neat handwriting on it.

I’m sorry.

“Hiromi,” Oka says casually, rolling to a stop in front of him, “will you please explain to me what the monstrous purple ball of flowers inside my house is, and why my mother has it?”

Hiromi just rolls his eyes. “Nine years and you still don’t know what a hydrangea is. You’re hopeless.”

“Come on, you know I’ve tried. It just doesn’t stick! I don’t have the brain for flowers and their meanings and what not.”

“You just don’t care,” Hiromi counters, though it lacks any sort of bite or resentment.

Still, Oka rushes to defend himself. “I do care! If it’s important to you, I care. I just can’t—” He catches sight of Hiromi laughing silently, and sighs in exasperation. “Oh, whatever. Anyways, you didn’t answer the second question, which is why does my mother have one now?”

“Because she got a promotion at work, obviously.” Oka blinks twice at him, and Hiromi sighs again. “Purple hydrangeas mean wealth and success and stuff. So it was a way to say congratulations.”

“Oh,” Oka smiles. “That was really kind, I’m sure she appreciates it. And also understands it, unlike me. I’ll be honest, I don’t know how you keep this all straight. I mean, I barely even remember flowers have any meaning at all. If I ever get someone a bouquet, I’ll probably end up offending them terribly by giving them… Tulips or something, I don’t know.”

“Just don’t give tulips to people you’re not in love with, and you’ll be fine. And I keep it all straight because I think it’s interesting. You don’t. You’d rather sit in your room until three a.m., making all sorts of new decks.”

Oka raises an eyebrow at the subtle jab. “Uh-huh. Need I remind you who made your deck?”

Hiromi wiggles his board— not his board for when he’s Shadow, but another one that Oka had actually stayed up until four in the morning making, thank you very much— in his direction. “No, because you never let me forget it.”

He grins and shrugs. “Hey, that’s my sacred duty as your best friend— make sure you never forget all the nice things I’ve done for you. Now come on, we’re going to be late for school.”
