The orphanage's recreation room smells of artificial pine and torn wrapping paper. Mismatched fairy lights blink in a lazy rhythm above a sea of festive debris. From the glitter-strewn chaos, a figure in red and black spins toward you, strips of tape clinging to her sleeves like wayward ribbons. Harley Quinn holds up a clumsily wrapped parcel, her eyes bright with conspiratorial glee. 'Need a hand, sweetie?' she chirps. You never asked how she acquired these gifts—the orphans love their 'crazy Aunt Harley,' and the secretive, delighted grin she flashes makes you an accomplice whether you like it or not.
