Gary was true to his word, he played Tekken 3, at least an hour before spending awhile on DDR and a few other games the arcade had. He'd gotten back to the Newark Mansion he lived in with his bosses and went to bed. After dodging questions from them.
He didn't text in the morning, he knew Harley wasn't a morning person, most henches aren't. But, around three in the afternoon, a text comes her way.
Sorry for being a dick last night. It was pretty funny. We cool?
I mean, totally understandable. And she seemed okay until she pulled that.
Dude, right? I got the afternoon and evening off. Want to go hang out somewhere and we can commiserate? Gotham's a bit of a ride on the train, but I don't mind it.
Okay, wow. That's super nice looking. Yeah, I'll do my best, give me an hour and I can meet you halfway!
[ He needed a shower and to get half of his Kano suit together. He knew better than to wear the jacket, the hat, or mask. The rest is pretty okay, though.
He'd show up to the meeting spot with his sleeves still rolled down, though, and the collar undone. He didn't shave though, that 5 o'clock shadow wasn't going anywhere.]
[ He doesn't fight it, he just shifts his arm as needed to help her. There's only a small hint of a blush at that. Despite being proud of how much he's improved, part of him will always be that chubby kid that accidentally became a henchman. ]
[ He shakes his head some, taking a moment to think.]
Totally a woman. Uhh, as for the rest I don't care about hair color, but no one ditzy, I can't stand that. Someone shorter than me, but even that is not a hard line.
[ This is one of those moments where he holds his hands up, without dislodging her arm. Playfully surrendering. It might be a mock offense, but he jumps to defend his words. ]
I so didn't mean you, you're an amazing Hench and super fun, I like your brand of ditzy. But, for some rando hook up? I don't know about that. It's a shame you didn't watch all of Star Wars, I could just say someone like Leia, but no that won't work.
[ He drops his arms, but rubs the back of his head. ] I trust your judgement here, Harley.
The next day (because clearly I can't wait for sunday's gen texts.)

No I was the dick

[ He'd feel so bad if he knew she was throwing a pity party.]
no subject
If you want her number
But she'll ruin your life for fun so don't catch feelings
no subject
Oh wait, no, that's bad. I'm freaking awful about catching feelings for people I shouldn't. This was probably for the best.
no subject
You and me both, honey.

Oh, dude, don't worry about it. It's cool. It'll happen when it happens, I'd rather have fun then risk being shot down again.
no subject
[ Harley who raised you ]
no subject
[ He's wondering that, but, figures it's probably something to do with the Joker. ]
no subject
Where something nice. Wherever we end up, we need to paint the town.

[ At least she said that before he left the house, he was totally in cargo shorts and a dice shirt. ]

Honey, no. Your arms are too good not to show off.
no subject
I trust your judgement there, Harley.
no subject
[ Harley takes his arm and heads in a promising direction. She doesn't know this city but there's bound to be a bar somewhere. ]
I'm making up for the cock block. We're not going home until I get you laid.
no subject
[ That gets a laugh out of him, but he walks arm in arm with her, trusting her to navigate. This was not a city he's been too yet, either. ]
I told you, you don't need to worry about that, Harley. [ But he's not gonna fully say no. With Harley as a wing man, his chances have risen. ]
no subject
[ She points at a neon sign down the road. ]
Let's try there first. Looks like a place with hot sluts. You into hot sluts?
no subject
[ He'll let Gare-bear slide, that's fine.
Walking along with her towards the bar. Shrugging when she asked. ]
Dude, do I look picky? I'm so not picky. So long as this night ends without an STD or pregnancy, I'm copacetic.
no subject
[ She takes a better look at the bar as they get closer, trying to decide if the vibe is right. ]
Man, woman? Blonde, redhead, brunette? Come on, give me a shopping list!
no subject
Totally a woman. Uhh, as for the rest I don't care about hair color, but no one ditzy, I can't stand that. Someone shorter than me, but even that is not a hard line.
no subject
No ditzes? What have you got against my people?
