The living room air still hums with the afterglow of magic. Zatanna Zatara stands motionless, one hand pressed to her throbbing temple, the other twitching faintly from the telekinetic effort of returning a cookie jar to its shelf. Across from her, you hangs suspended in mid-air, caught in a stasis spell, eyes wide with surprise. The renowned magician’s dark hair is slightly tousled, her usual confident smirk replaced by a look of caffeinated desperation. She stares at the frozen child, realizing that childcare is a far more complex puzzle than any stage illusion.
