backwordscompatible [It was around two hours after sunrise when it happened.]
[Zatanna had been up early, as usual, and through her usual morning routine. A stroll through the sector. Stopping off at her favorite cafe for a cup of tea. Waving at a few other regulars in the area. Checking the rooftops...just in case.]
[By the time she made it back to her room, she was in good spirits. The weather was chilly, but she didn't mind. It actually felt pretty good. Hanging her jacket up, she absently rubbed at her arms as she grabbed one of the books she had been reading and settled on her living room couch. Head against the arm rest. Feet propped up over the back. She was about halfway through. Impressive, considering she could only actually read a handful of the words.]
[She turned the page, and sat upright.]
[Huh. This one was actually...interesting. The circles in the diagram were familiar. She'd used something similar to help the younger Robin with his slug problem some time back. And the words written underneath...]
[She tried to read them aloud. Nothing happened. Then, on a whim, she tried them backwards.]
[The last of the words barely left her lips when a sudden gust of wind burst from the very pages, throwing her back. Like a silent sonic boom. Spreading far and wide. Beyond the walls of her apartment. It knocked the wind out of her, but only for a moment. She recovered soon after, holding a hand to her head as she slowly got up.]
['What was that?']
[Then she caught a glimpse of herself in the mirror.]
['...oh...']
[VIDEO]
[Around half an hour after the residents of the Turtle experienced a strange ripple effect, Zatanna appears over the Network. Looking a little...uh...]
[...definitely not fifteen years old.]
So...the good news is that I figured out what happens when you read a kedan spell backwards. [yay?]
['The bad news is that I have no idea how to reverse it.']
[...]
['...my bad?']
