A Giovanni from another dimension drops in au (referencing his dimension traveling comics)
[[MORE]]
yeah, basically she drops in.. hold up, she?!?!
she's wearing a suit similar to giovanni
he isn't suspicious of her, actually seems excited for a reason unknown to the league
during interrogation: "where are you from?" "I didn't save my home dimension."/"it doesn't matter now." "giovanni, wtf???" "my home dimension banished me, jokes on them because when order conquered chaos the dimension wiped itself from existence." "that's rough buddy.. i mean sorry." "what is both of your problems?"
anyway she eventually coughs up her name, or a name, Allura - "why that name?" "do you want a name close to his? no? stick to it then." "and zatanna says I have a temper.."
when Allura asks who is zatanna, giovanni is flabbergasted and says he'll introduce his family to her once this meeting is over
so yea, after the meeting, Allura is introduced to Sindella and Zatanna. Sindella, thus Zatanna too, figures out Allura is a dimension hopper. and then discovers her husband is one too - him saying he'll explain after they send Allura home
after a few days of gathering "ingredients" and reading, as well as Zatanna taking her "aunt" around new york, allura is sent home
giovanni explains it was an accident.. he was trying to stop Lord Inferno, another dimension hopper, and was blamed by that world's order for the death of a hidden village due to the fallout of the battle. they gave him a choice: get sent to another world or be consumed by order - he chose to leave. his life had been stitched into this world, from memories of him in the minds of others to a paper trail about himself.. (before the destruction of that world - he grieved and fell into a state of depression because that world had been his home) which is why he left Italy in the guise of wanting a new life for himself in America, as a wildcard in the world his fate was not predetermined so he could forge his own destiny
did his host family know? perhaps, because the matriarch had the eyes of the Lion and no one said anything so the sewing job probably missed a few stitches.. ouch..
but yeah, Zatanna is of two dimensions thanks to her parents
and this is why Sindella's family (Order) put a "cap" on his magic when he was passed off to them - he agreed on it - and limited what he could do as to not tempt him to distort the fabric of the world any further in his teaching of zatanna
