Celebrating (?) her first year at lastvoyages

[chlorophylliac]

Yes.

Are you satisfied? Yes.

I miss Harley.

That doesn't change the fact that if she shows her face on the Barge I'm going to turn her into so much blood and bone meal and feed her to my plants.  She deserves worse for what she did to me.

Now that's friendship.

[inmateincharge]

Let me guess - she didn't give one of your plants enough water.

[chlorophylliac]

It's not for you to know, you loathesome parasite.

[inmateincharge]

Flattery will get you nowhere, my dear - I'm taken, you see.

[byebye_mistah_j]

Would it change anything if I said my name was Harleen?

[chlorophylliac]

If your name's Harleen then I'm not talking about you.

[byebye_mistah_j]

But I was Harley.

What did your Harley do?

[chlorophylliac]

You're virulent. I've got nothing to say to you, Joker.

[inmateincharge]

Really? I thought you'd have a lot more to whine about. Well, that works for me!

[chlorophylliac]

She left me for dead in Arkham so she could go and play house with the perpetual thorn in her side.

[byebye_mistah_j]

What?!

Even when he...

Even when he didn't try to kill me I wouldn't think I would do something like that.

Would I?

[lastincident]

You know if you could tell me about her, we could start actually getting to the root-- pardon the pun--of some of your issues with trust.

But-- in all honesty-- I hope she comes by and you two work things out.

[chlorophylliac]

And you know that if you could stop using manipulative passive aggression in place of sincerity and evince some concern for my welfare then I might be inclined to talk to you. So it seems we're at an impasse.

[chlorophylliac]

She did. So I presume you would.

[lastincident]

I don't do emotive well. Personal failing. [ He laughs, a little weakly. ] Besides, the last time I suggested anything genuine you hung up on me.

[byebye_mistah_j]

I don't know.

But I can at least tell you I wouldn't be stupid enough to go back to him now.

I've shot and killed one that was enough.

[chlorophylliac]

You'd already long since exhausted my ability to tolerate you.

[chlorophylliac]

You -

[Hold the fucking phone.]

You killed your Joker?

[byebye_mistah_j]

My sense of self-preservation kicked in when he tried to beat me to death. I somehow got in a lucky shot and killed him.

It wasn't without mental repercussions though but no worse than what he would of done to me anyway.

[chlorophylliac]

No worse than what he'd been doing to you for years, I don't doubt.

[byebye_mistah_j]

Certainly but I will admit I wasn't quite myself for a long time after that.

Your security was actually decreased in Arkham because of my tendencies for rash emotions and the fact that you seemed to be the only one who could keep me from hurting others or myself.

I eventually managed to work to this state of mental health. It isn't perfect but it was better than at any time I called myself Harley.

[chlorophylliac]

I...

It's good to hear you've been able to move on to this point.

[It's not quite 'I'm pleased for you' - though she is. It's just hard to say that out loud.]

[byebye_mistah_j]

Thank you Pamela.

I doubt it means much given what you have been through but I'm glad to be seeing my closest friend again.

[phdincrazy]

You don't really mean that, do yah, Red? You can't mean that!

[chlorophylliac]

I'm as serious as a heart attack, Harley.
