[Some few years after Harley leaves Camp Fuck You Die... odd things start happening to the guards and staff at night (only at night). Lights turning off, spooky noises, etc etc. There's a ghost haunting Arkham!]

[It took him a while to cross realities, but here he is.]

["Ghostly" happenings are nothing new to Arkham grounds, but Harley has a sneaking suspicion this one might be personal. She sits in her isolated cell and waits for a flicker of shadows.]

Took you long enough.

[Also slamming and locking doors on the employees. Hilarious.]

[How about some shadow puppets on the wall?]

[Giggles]

How long have you been here?

[no one else can see and hear him, they're going to think she's CRAZY or something!!]

[stepping out]

A day or two.

And you didn't come say hi right away? Shame on you!

[jumping up to give him a crushing hug]

Gosh I've missed you, you creepy jerk!

Where's the suspense if I did?

[honestly he was terrified of not being seen and can anyone blame him?]

[you can hug him ONCE because he's BEING SEEN AGAIN!!]

So, Arkham.

[Then she'll make it count. BEST AND BIGGEST HUG EVER]

Home sweet home away from home! I take it you gave yourself the grand tour.

I'm having fun with the idiots.

[the abusive idiots? they deserve it all.]

Aw, they're not all bad. Dr. Leland's okay.

What are you even doing here anyway?

Which one is he? Or is it a she?

Curiosity. ... I'm surprised you can see me.

She's the chief of staff. Real pretty, calm. Nobody trying to stab her.

Of course I can see you, silly! I told you I would.

Does she need to be off limits for games?

I wasn't sure you'd remember.

Not entirely off limits, but play nice.

I remember everything. They practically tripled my meds.

I'm not hurting anyone. I can't touch them, I'm the invisible man.

Feel like a jailbreak?

Right now? But I haven't got anything planned! Do you have a plan?

I don't need a plan. I just need the lights off.

There's a breaker on the other side of the security doors for this ward.

Simple.

Are you ready?

As I'll ever be.

[brb flippin' the switches]

[ISN'T THIS EXCITING, A FUN NIGHT OUT WITH FRIENDS]

[coming back as a pair of golden eyes]

Right, where do you want to go?

Anywhere but here.

Fine, I'll figure out where it is you live later.

[let's go to the roof first! FRESH AIR]

I don't really live anywhere. It's really just ... shacking up wherever there aren't already squatters.

Time enough to figure it out tonight.

Not if they let the Bat out after me. And you, too, now you staged a jailbreak! Oooh, you naughty boy!

((One tag every two months! That's the Harley RP Guarantee!))

What's he going to do, I'm nothing but a little ghost.

I'm not sure that's actually going to be an issue for him.

What's the worst he can do?

... Uh ... Put me back in my cell, pretty much. He's not very creative. But he's not very gentle, either!

How many times have you broken out? Doesn't he learn?

...Not that we want him too.

I have literally lost count.

He's strictly nonlethal, so... I mean, what else is he gonna do? But he still packs one helluva whallop!

[Non...lethal...]

Why?

Heroes.

What kind of fresh new idiot gets into a fight and promises not to kill you? Is that supposed to make you feel sorry for him?

[Laughs! OH HOW SHE HAS MISSED HIS JOKES.]

[...heh]

Ridiculous.

I'm not gonna argue that, but don't underestimate him. You're on his turf now.

I am not. What's he going to do, if he can see me? Punch me too?
