It's Magic!
An Elementary School in Gotham City.

Principal Aparo was not a happy man.  He usually was, in as much as any elementary school principal could be, but he had bad news for his teachers his afternoon.  The children were at lunch, with and he had quickly called a staff meeting before it finished. 

"There's a problem," he said.  "The magician we hired for the afternoon assembly is sick.  He had to cancel.  I'm afraid we'll have to postpone the assembly."

"Oh," Mrs. Infantino, the elderly first grade teacher, said.  "The children will be so disappointed."

Victoria frowned.  There was that sudden, sinking feeling.  Slowly... she cleared her throat.

"I... may know someone who can fill in," she said. 

"Who?" Mr. Wein, one of the kindergarten teachers, asked.

"Someone famous," Victoria said, "and a very talented magician.  And I am certain he will agree.  He owes me a favor.  But you must ask no further questions.  I assure you this will be appropriate."

She added a little bit of her mystical persuasion to her words, just in case.

When the meeting broke up, she made a hasty phone call.

Victoria chuckled a little. "Nice to see I can still surprise you."

"Miss Craft, you may not always surprise, but you never disappoint." He chuckles. "So how'd that go? What put an end to it, or is he still your hot little piece on the side?"

"Quite the pleasant relationship for its time, and we remain friends," Victoria said, "but we did eventually break up, mutually."

"The spark... simply dimmed, over time, I suppose. We decided we were better friends than lovers."

"Happens. Goodness knows I've had more than my share of relationships that burned bright but fast.

So, this was fun. I should get going."

"Thank you again, Zachary," she said.

"Would you like to get dinner later this evening? I could use a little company."

He tilts his head, mentally reviewing his schedule.

"I'd like that. See you at eight."

And he's gone.
