AU Harley Quinn has been homeless for a very long time.

[arlecchinorotto]

Mun.

Mun, Mun, Munny-Mun-Mun Mun.

Branching out with me now? Taking the big jump from occasional threads on memes with your friends into the big wide world of... all this.

It's okay.

It's okay to be scared.

Nowhere's safe. Not even inside your own head.

That's the least safe place of all.

So.

What now?


((OOC: so yeah this is an AU Harley Quinn, 98% inspired by the Nolan movies. Same basic story: smart young psychiatrist working at Arkham gets assigned to the Joker and things go downhill from there. She's not as bubbly, though.))

[she shrugs one shoulder] Not entirely. But I do worry. [flash of a sharp smile] For your sake and, you know, the general populace.

People don't underestimate the Joker, generally. You, on the other hand.

[arlecchinorotto]

[She raises an eyebrow and leans in.]

Me? What do I do?

[bodilesswarrior]

[Barbara stares up at her with cool scrutiny] You're smart. Unpredictable. Stronger than he is, and less prone to tunnel vision or over confidence. Better team player, too, though frankly you could say that about a rogue alligator.

[arlecchinorotto]

[Harley leans back and folds her arms. She's quiet, just looks at Barbara and considers.]

[bodilesswarrior]

[Barbara considers her, too, with a slight, wry smile] You might be more dangerous than he is. And yet I still like you better.

[arlecchinorotto]

Well I am prettier.

[bodilesswarrior]

[okay, that gets a chuckle] Very true.

Nice costume, too. Have you ever worn one?

[arlecchinorotto]

[She shrugs.]

Not like the others. Don't think I'd be able to get stuff done in the kinds of things they wear.

[bodilesswarrior]

[with a faint smirk] You'd be surprised. That kind of outfit can be fairly practical, you do it right.

...Well, except the corset one. No idea where that came from.

[arlecchinorotto]

Male sexual fantasies.

[She says it automatically. It's the psychiatrist. She'll never stop being one, really. But then she shrugs nonchalantly.]

I just stay simple.
