[radio]

[backwordscompatible]

[A few days after this conversation took place, Zatanna chose to make a rare public appearance on the radio network.  She would have used the public consoles, if the subject wasn't too delicate for certain ears:]

Okay, so...I have an idea.

[Fair warning, at this moment, it was a fairly terrible plan.  And almost certainly won't work.  Unless it does.]

Remember that Vision we all had a couple of days ago?  [Rhetorical question.  Of course they did.]  Well, it got me thinking.  What if Tu Vishan really is still alive, only...trapped?  Buried within his own mind so deep that he wasn't able to reach out to us until we went looking for him.

So let's look.  Magically, I mean.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is that...if you have any magical abilities whatsoever, would you be down to try something with me?  It's not too dangerous.  Probably.

I suppose.

[Stunt was the right word for it. It had been born of recklessness and she hadn't been prepared for the consequences. But back to the matter at hand.]

Have you decided on a location for this endeavor?

[backwordscompatible]

[The one thing she was absolute certain on.]

Yeah, actually. As far up Turtle's Head as we can get.

The closer to the source, the better chance we have of finding something. Not to mention, there's little risk of the current population interfering with their rogue brain waves.

[redlightgreenlight]

[That was where she and Wan had first possessed the turtle, as well as where she had received the vision, so it made sense.]

Yes. That would be the best place.

[backwordscompatible]

...nice to know I can do something right.

[Whoops, did that slip out a little louder than intended?]

[redlightgreenlight]

That's...not what I meant.

[She said quickly]

You are the only one who knows how to do this, hence only you can guide us right now.

[backwordscompatible]

Hmm? Oh! No, I didn't mean you.

[She quickly waved a hand in the air, trying to backtrack.]

That wasn't about you. Honest.

I guess I'm...still a little nervous about all this.

[redlightgreenlight]

[Nervousness was to be expected, not everyone had the foolish confidence of Dante]

That's to be expected, but we have to try.

[backwordscompatible]

I know. That's why I'm following through.

In a couple days' time, once I know who's in, we'll all gather. That should give me enough time to prepare.

[redlightgreenlight]

Just let me know.

[There were a few things that she should probably tell Zatanna, but the radio wasn't exactly best for those specifics. However...]

I can provide two different kinds of energy if needed.

[backwordscompatible]

[They would have time to talk in private later. Everyone who knew her knew where to find her. And, on top of that, there would be time before the ritual began to discuss last-minute details.]

I'll take both, if that's possible.

[redlightgreenlight]

It might be.

[She wasn't certain how Revelations would react separately, but she knew she couldn't use the darker magic while holding the blade herself.]

[backwordscompatible]

[Well, she knew more about her own magic than Zatanna did, or would claim to know.]

However this works out...don't strain yourself too much.

We'd all love to find out what's happening, but you just got over a major shock. And none of this will be worth it if we're left too drained afterwards.

[redlightgreenlight]

You're sweet, but I'll be fine.

[Hopefully.]

[backwordscompatible]

Alright. I trust you.

Couple days' time. See you there.

[redlightgreenlight]

[It was odd to hear someone say that they trusted her, it wasn't something she recalled hearing in recent memory, but it made her smile.]

See you there. [She agreed]
