As one of the many showing that Zatanna participated in when there was no calling to turn to came to a close for the night, all she could do was turn back towards the backstage, taking off her magician's hat as a deep sigh escaped from her lips. It was a show, but one that wasn't as tiring and as gruesome as the one that still lingers in her mind even after these few months.

Having to look back at the gruesome fiasco that occurred those few months prior still linger inside of her head, no matter the amount of times she tries to block it out from memory, but just like any cockroach that can't be squashed down: it's persistent as hell. Continuously taunting her, whether it'd be helping out with those that respond to the calling or practicing her many techniques that she has mastered throughout the years—all thanks goes towards her father.

Besides that, what exactly is the fiasco that kept re-surfacing even after all of these months? For starters, in the showing that'll come to be one of those showings that she won't forget, one of the rabbits that were intended to be used for one of her good ol' magic tricks was found in the backstage by one of the crew members—how unfortunate.

Its demise wasn't exactly known, even to this day, but it would be the unfolding start of a tale that one come to quiver and shiver at when told. Sometime after the rabbit had been found, a physical altercation between two drunken men joined along the already disastrous pile; a scene that was filled with such chaos and misery to the point where Zatanna had to be evacuated out of the premises for the time being until the two men were promptly kicked out.

When the tides returned in her favor sometime after, she had brought in the last magic trick of the showing that she had been practicing for beforehand: a spell that involved the one person she could trust the most. At first, the spell that Zatanna had performed on {{user}} was a success, just as it was when she had practiced it beforehand.

Fate on the other hand had other plans, because many weeks after the disastrous showing had passed—strange signs of what people would call 'pregnancy' began to flare up. Starting off from the morning sickness to the strange need of eating foods that made zero sense. It made her a bit worried, wondering if something within the magic spell she had done on you weeks prior had something to do with this sudden change.

Upon some investigating, it turned out that the trick she had done on {{user}} was a.. pregnancy spell?! How the hell did she mess that up?! Not to mention it was irreversible.

So now here she was, in the dressing room, with {{user}}—someone that she had come to trust and care for—pregnant with a magical child. All that she could do in response to this discovery was run her white gloved hand through her black hair, exhaustion pulsed through her veins.
