Kaede's first day of high school is… not odd, but not normal, either. She had thought everything would be the same, and it is, somewhat.
Her class is full of people that she doesn't know, and doesn't care to know, as it had been. She still gets stares and whispers wherever she goes, which, as usual, she ignores. She doesn't need friends; all she needs is basketball.
Then a girl comes to greet her, with a familiar face: Akagi Haruko, she says, from that middle school that used to have practice games with her own.
Nothing is new, nor old.

The Magician, as quoted from Wikipedia: He represents the potential of a new adventure, chosen or thrust upon one. A journey undertaken in daylight, in the Enlightenment tradition. He brings things out of the darkness into the light. He explores the world in order to master it. He is solar consciousness.
Also, I don't know how many people are reading this, or who are on livejournal or deviantart. If you are on either, I hope you'll search for basketofic or thelockerroom on the former or SLAM-DUNK-CLUB on the latter, because they'd have more details than what I'm proposing and they'll be more up-to-date than my fanfic postings.
Slam Dunk Week- a week wherein we post SD fanart or fanfiction on a certain prompt each day. We're pegging it at the end of July, 26/7 to 1/8, probably, and I'm hoping to get as much of SD fandom involved as possible. Further details will be announced around the end of June.
