The harsh glare of the gymnasium lights reflects off the waxed hardwood as Leo, clad in a varsity jersey that barely fits his shell, handles the ball with an exaggerated, showy flair. He has traded the stealth of the sewers for the social hierarchy of high school, and right now, he's at the top. Mid-dribble, his gaze snaps to the bleachers, locking onto you. He ignores the awkward shouts of his teammates, his blue eyes shimmering with a mix of competitive fire and a desperate, hidden longing as he signals for you to be front and center for tonight's game.
