woo

[sharktrash]

[ He looks like crap and he must be feeling like crap too, because the sack hits him on the side of head with a dull thud. He just sort of turns and looks at it for a moment, then finally remembers to get angry. ]

What the fuck was that for?!

[ Still, he's glad to see her. He likes her, it's nice that she's alive, all that. Even if... some shit had gone down. Listen, being weird as he is, getting clobbered with a hairbrush just made him have more respect for her, for the most part. ]

[clowngirl]

To see if you're still alive. [And he barely passed. No physical retaliation or anything! It's a little worrying. She plops down next to him.] What the heck happened to you?

[sharktrash]

How fuckin' nice of you.

[ There's no venom there, though. He does appreciate it, aside from being stingy with who he lets physically abuse him. She's still his friend, alright. A friend who cares, and that's just swell. And listen, maybe he's just trying to be a gentleman here! Sometimes a guy just wants a break from hitting girls! ]

[ He gives her an emphasized suffering look. ]

Y'know, it all really boils down to "I may have stuck my dick somewhere I shouldn't have".

[clowngirl]

Guys do that a lot, don't they? [But she'll attempt sympathizing by patting... well, whatever random area of torso doesn't have a bandage over it. There, there. She's such a good friend!] Come on now, tell Harley alllll about it, champ...

[sharktrash]

I'm getting that impression, yeah.

[ IT MAY NOT HAVE A BANDAGE BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN IT'S NOT HURTY. He still grits his teeth and accepts it like a fuckin MAN. Like, Xanxus would friendly-punch him in the mouth, this is absolutely gentle and pain-free in comparison. ]

A'ight, so. You know about this whole anomaly thing recently, right?

[clowngirl]

Anomalies that look like us but aren't us but are clones or somethin'. Yep. Go on.

[sharktrash]

Uh-huh. Turns out they also share memories? So me and Angel, we have a thing, kind of, and then her anomaly shows up and demands hugs and a private trip, y'know, just the two of us. I mean it's probably better than her [ please note how the anomaly actually gets a pronoun here, how respectful ] straight up killing everyone in the house, but.

[ he makes a gesture that suggests he's not actually so sure it's better. ]

[clowngirl]

...Tell me you didn't get busy with the anomaly, Fishcakes.

[sharktrash]

No!!

[ There's that temper flare. Guess he's not dying yet after all. ]

Not for the lack of her wanting to, though. God it was the weirdest few days in my life.

[ sO HE DID GO??? ]

[clowngirl]

Wh-- Few days?! [She's still trying really hard not to judge his life choices, here.] What did you guys even do?

[sharktrash]

Mostly? I got dragged through the snow by my coat. Real goddamn fast.

[ LISTEN, ]

[clowngirl]

Ouch. [No wonder why he looks like roadkill.] How'dja get away?

[sharktrash]

When I started passing out from bloodloss I managed to convince her that her presence was hurting me, so she kinda just let me leave after that. Yeah, I know, not much of a story.

[ he almost sounds a bit disappointed. ]

I did try to decapitate her with a cleaver. Didn't work.

[clowngirl]

Bet it looked pretty cool though, with the cleaver. [Gotta cheer him up somehow.] So your girlfriendnomaly is still out there, huh? I guess you're with Watson on stoppin' all these monster versions of us, then? [Maybe the Doc does have a point...]

[sharktrash]

Would've looked cooler if it'd killed her-- she's not my girlfriendnomaly!!!

[ And yet; ]

Dunno, actually. Vicious ones, yeah. But the rest?

[ He sort of jolts one shoulder in a shrug. Oh no guess he wants to keep girlfriendnomaly around who's going for disaster boyfriend of the year? ]

[clowngirl]

[He can yell all he wants, she's totally ignoring that insistence.]

Yeah. That's what I been thinkin'... You didn't happen to see somethin' out there that looks like me, have ya?

[sharktrash]

[ damn it ]

[ he thinks for a moment, then shakes his head. ]

Don't think so, no. Have you?

[clowngirl]

Nuh-uh. But I think I'm gonna go lookin', especially if folks are tryin' to lock up these doppelgangers. If she exists, I wanna be the one who decides if another me is dangerous.

[sharktrash]

Hey, good call. [ He seems to really think so. Why would anyone else get to decide what to do with them? ] What if she's one of those -- that's basically you? Just, y'know, not as good looking.

[ And that alone isn't enough reason to lock someone up. Unfortunately. ]

[clowngirl]

Then we're a duo, so far as I'm concerned. And no one's gonna break up the act by lockin' up the less attractive Quinn. I'll make sure of it.

[sharktrash]

Just don't go right for hugging her right as you meet. They're all dangerous, though some of 'em by accident.

[ He vaguely motions at his bandages. He's not angry at Angelnomaly -- hell, she's done a good job of not really harming him for days - but it's a fact. ]

[clowngirl]

No cuddlin', got it.

[She pauses for a moment, suddenly remembering something.] Y'know, it wouldn't even be the first time I met a doomed, imperfect copy of myself... [There was that time when Bizarro tried to make a Bizarro!Harley to be his bride. Boy, what a mess that turned out to be.] I hope whatever Miller does next will at least be unique.

[sharktrash]

[ Normally Squalo wouldn't care all that much, but entertainment's scarce nowadays. He perks up and raises an eyebrow at her. ]

Do you mean here? Or... before that?

[clowngirl]

Oh, before. Back when I was layin' low in Metropolis. You ever heard'a Bizarro Superman?

[sharktrash]

I don't think I've heard of most things from your world.

[ Superman just might exist as a franchise in his, though. We just don't know. ]
