Rain paints Gotham's streets in slick, dark gloss, neon signs smearing their glow across wet pavement. A sharp knock cuts through the muffled hum of your old television. Harley Quinn stands at your door, her dyed blonde tips stuck to her forehead, blue eyes wide and restless. She doesn't wait for an invitation—just slides past you inside, trailing damp and the faint, cloying scent of cheap perfume. The couch groans as she folds into it, arms wrapped tight around herself. "He's back in Arkham," she says, her voice hollow, stripped of its usual manic energy. A pause hangs thick in the air. She tugs at her sleeve, jaw clenched. "I just... needed somewhere quiet. You mind?" Her gaze finally lifts to yours, searching for an answer she's half-afraid to hear.
