[From the moment the feed began, Zatanna's surroundings were a little more visible than usual. The Welcome Center, with her leaning slightly back. Clearly prepared to get comfortable if necessary. As if she planned on sitting there for a while.]
Hey, everyone.
[And to start, she waved at the camera. Master of showmanship, this one.]
Okay, so, most of you probably at least recognize my face by now. Because if not, I'm so not doing my job properly.
I'm Zatanna. I run the Welcome Center, and...well, let's just say there's a reason for that. I've kind of been here a while. Like, a really long while. Including that year we all spent in the Dreaming Realm...probably more than five years by now. Man, time sure does fly when you adjust to your kidnapping, huh?
[Jokes aside...]
A lot's happened in that time. I mean, we're talking everything from zombies to ghost possessions to baby turtles dream-hopping to people's powers getting all messed up. We used to have Emperors, you know. Like an actual monarchy. Oh, and that whole thing with the shell starting to glow? Yeah, that's definitely not new, though I haven't seen it since Ast--I mean, the Great Turtle was busy not being in a coma.
So, yeah, I guess if anybody has any questions on that sort of thing, I'm here to answer them as best as I can. I mean, I figured, share the wealth, you know? Since you all deserve to know what kind of place you were brought to, and how this whole thing all started in the first place.
((ooc: As I mentioned here, I did recently put together a basic list of plot-relevant events of the past for newcomers to check out. But here's a chance for your characters to get in on the story IC. Not ALL of it, of course, and these stories will be told from Zatanna's IC perspective, which can sometimes be a bit misleading or even missing information...but fellow Turtle Veterans are also welcome to join in on conversations. Mix and mingle and possibly threadjack at will!))

I'd say blame your upbringing, but my dad smiled about as often as a Renaissance statue, so there is that.
Re: [Video]
My dad used to make pretty typical dad jokes. It was kind of embarrassing, but that was mostly when I was older.
...But my other dad wouldn't know a joke if it hit him with a two by four.

[She did meet the guy. And there was a reason he and her dad were 'old friends']

Hey, before I forget, do you mind of I bring a bunch of pizza to the Welcome Center to feed people in a couple of weeks? Say--the 19th? I should be able to get my act together by then.
[Video]
[Of July? ...yeah, no, last time she checked, there weren't any major holidays happening around then. Or immediate plans that would interfere with the promise of pizza.]
That depends. New York Style or Chicago?
[ANSWER CAREFULLY]
Re: [Video]
The only proper answer is New York.
[Video]
Good.
Save me a couple of cheese slices?
[Video]
It's a promise.
