---

Doreen Green has posed:
Doreen Green is visiting Gotham. New York City appears to be safe for now, no invading Egyptian death gods, or pyramids in Central Park. As exciting as all that was, even Squirrel Girl sometimes needs a break from social media live streams and butt kicking.

So this evening she is wandering Gotham City on foot, gawking at the Wayne Enterprises tower, and with an "Oooooo!" she stares at the Iceberg lounge. Tippy Toe peaks out of Doreen's tail, chittering in amazement. Doreen clasps her hands together in thought, "Maybe we should go in there! Looks like an ice skating rink AND a restaurant in one! Whaddya think Tippy Toe?!" The squirrel replies with a high pitched "squee" in approval.

Diana Prince has posed:
Diana is in Gotham today to meet with some associates who work in this part of town. She's arriving via her silver sports car, a fancy little thing, and stepping out of it just near to where Doreen (and her friend) are talking about the Iceburg Lounge. The Princess of Themyscira is dressed i na black sweater, form fit to her shape, with a dark brown leather jacket worn over it, and a pair of black slacks, with short heeled shoes. Her dark hair is tied back behind her shoulders in a loose ponytail, and as she steps out of her vehicle she raises a pair of sunglasses up to her hairline, then starts around her vehicle after shutting the door.

Once on the side street, Diana's eyes go to where she's headed, but she pauses when she sees Doreen, and her bushy squirrel tail. This gets a slight raise of her eyebrows, but ultimately she just smiles to the woman when they make eye contact.

Ray Terrill has posed:
        Ray didn't have any classes because of the upcoming holiday break, and since his family is ... well, let's not talk about that, okay? So, he's on his own.

    With that in mind, Ray grabbed his laptop backpack and hopped on the train connecting New York with Metropolis and Gotham. That was a number of hours ago. It's obvious that he's new to Gotham, which could eventually turn out very very badly (for someone). However, currently, he's made it to Ryker's Heights, looking up at the Wayne Tower while standing near one of the fast-food restaurants. There's a line, and he hasn't quite realized that it opened up in front of him -- he's too busy looking at the buildings.

Harley Quinn has posed:
Yeaaaaaa, lets call it meeting associates too... Harley, after her 'small' adventure a bit dislocated from time had came by Gotham to visit some old friends, perhaps even checking if they were alive. Guilty conscience maybe. So she had been prowling.. And what's one of the best places to prowl and get info?! The Iceberg Lounge! Of course she didn't expect a rather angry owner which is considering her persona non grata...

The door of the Iceberg Lounge opens up and a pair of rather large security guards come dragging the (former) Princess of Crime out by the arms.

"I gotta tell ya..." Harley is saying. "Is this how ya treat me?!" so dramatic. "It's been two yeahs since the scuffle. Get ovah it!" she is talking over her shoulder to someone not in the field of vision but then checks the muscles on one of the men carrying her. "Ohhh, nice." a little smile up at the man. Not that they are impressed by her baby blue eyes, tossing her out to the street with little ceremony.

"Well, that's just great..." she says, sitting up..

Doreen Green has posed:
Doreen Green smiles at Diana and waves, always friendly to people by default. But then.. something about her seems.. familiar? Doreen stops, "Wait.. I think I recognize you.. from somewhere.. I dunno! Well my name is Squirrel Girl! The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl! Profession? Superhero! But I'm taking the night off.."

Doreen peeks towards the Iceberg Lounge again and the now prone Harley, "I'm going down there.. to the Ice Skating Lounge!" She does consider helping Harley up but that would mean rudely leaving Diana! Tippy-Toe the squirrel squeaks at Diana in greeting.

Diana Prince has posed:
This is one of the most populated parts of Gotham, especially at this hour of day. Diana's eyes roam over the people along the side street, Ray is seen, but as they all are... another face in the crowd, so to speak.

Her gaze is sent back to Doreen, and her very chipper introduction, and a grin is soon to show after the little Tippy Toe makes his squeak. "Well, it is very good to meet you both." She says, her accent is quite foreign to this place. "I am Diana." She'd say more but Harley's 'arrival' gets Diana's attention drawn toward it...

And since they know each other...

Diana starts to walk toward the Clownette. "Harley?" The Princess asks, looking her over as she steps up toward her. "Are you hurt?" Another glance is sent back toward the lounge, as literally throwing people on to their butts out of the place seems a bit extreme... even though Harley does have a bit of a tumultuous past, to say the least.

Ray Terrill has posed:
        Ray gets a few complaints (strongly worded, it -is- Gotham) from behind, turns a bit pink, and moves up to place his order. Once he's got his food, he's walking towards the Iceberg Lounge's general direction, although the dyed blonde being thrown -out- of the place gets a bit of attention. "Dress code?" he opines to himself quietly, before taking a bite of his burger. It's no Big Belly Burger, but it's still apparently good, by his reaction. He's still in the crowd, at this point, although Diana -- well, she always gets attention, naturally. The height, the accent and likely the -presence-.

        Ray coughs a bit on his burger, and takes a quick drink of his Soder cola.

Harley Quinn has posed:
The two security guards eye Harley for a moment longer, perhaps just to make sure she won't be doing a scene, but then walk back inside.

Harley still looks at the man she was oggling at before (his muscles at least), "Call me when ya get off work!" she shouts out, continuing to sit right there on the middle of the street until she hears a familiar voice calling out her name. Eyes go wide, almost bulging out and she goes to speak out her name rather loudly. "D-", but then puts her hands on her mouth. Respectful that she might not want to have her name vented out to the four winds. Celebrities!

"Di?" She says in a low voice, "What ya doin' heah?" she starts getting back up to her feet, dusting herself off and adjusting her pigtails. "Just my pride that's been hurt.., bein' tossed out o' the lounge..." a dramatic little sigh escaping her. "Long story...."

"Yoh friend got a pet squirrel." she announces. Is she ignoring the large tail that the girl has?

Doreen Green has posed:
Doreen Green is standing near Diana, who just arrived in a fancy car. Ray is walking along towards the Iceberg Lounge eating his dinner. Harley has been unceremoniously plopped on the ground by strong, shmexy guards!

Doreen waves excitedly at Harley, calling out, "I'm Squirrel Girl!" She points to Tippy-Toe who has since jumped out of Doreen's tail fur and landed on her left shoulder. The squirrel squees at Harley in greeting.

Doreen starts to approach the Iceberg lounge, "So this place.. seems kinda rough! Why'd they throw you out? Are you supposed to bring your own ice skates? I didn't think I'd need any.." She thinks..

Diana Prince has posed:
Diana's eyes look to Harley who gets a faint smile when she sees that the former crime princess of Gotham is doing okay, or seemingly as okay as she ever is. "I am sorry, I suppose it hold over sentiments from your past then." The Themysciran Princess states before her eyes are sent by Harley's words to take in the visage that is Doreen. A grin shows at Tippy-Toe's squee toward Harley. "She does indeed, Gotham is never short of interesting people."

Ray standing not far away, gets a glance from Diana who notices a bith of ketchup on his cheek. The Princess' right hand comes up to motion toward her cheek to try to express to him of the misplaced condiment, then shows him a faint smile as well.

"I could check with the Lounge employees." She offers Harley. "See if I cannot correct this for you, if you would like?"

Cain Marko has posed:
And not riding a fancy car is Cain. Currently around seven or so feet tall, he's still built like a small apartment building. Wearing relatively normal clothes, a nice bespoke suit. Bespoke is the only way he can FIND clothes, so that makes sense. Whatever it's made of is probably reinforced to keep it from tearing too easily. He's strolling down the street towards the Lounge, apparently deciding to hit the club up this evening. He notes the tall, striking Greek woman, and the shorter one with a... massive squirrel tail. Huh. And somebody apparently just got ejected from the place. He scans over the blonde curiously. He doesn't recognize her defiitively, but she seems to be familiar somehow. He stops a distance away from them, watching curiously.

Ray Terrill has posed:
        Ray blinks as the supermodel (in his mind anyway) gives him a motion and a smile. Sure, she's being friendly. Still, he's a kid (well, okay, not legally, but -really-), and he turns pink. It takes him a good minute to figure out what she's talking about, and he turns closer to red -- it's easy to see this, being a redhead -- and he hurriedly gets a napkin to clean himself up. "Thanks," he replies. He doesn't have a cool accent, really, he's just from Philly. He then sees the massive dude, and his eyes widen, "Cripes." He stiffens faintly, but isn't moving. Just .... watching.

Harley Quinn has posed:
"The past is always out ta get us ..." Harley says in agreement with Diana, now finished with her pigtails and as presentable as she will ever be. She rests her hands behind her, shifting her weight from foot to foot while looking up at the tall Amazon. "This ain't my fault by the way!" well, it is. In a way. Though her attention goes to Squirrel Girl and at the introduction she grins. "I am Harley. Harley Quinn." she dances from one foot to the other, balanced perfectly and lowering herself in a curtsey, all poise and grace. "And who's the Squeeks?!" she asks, most likely of Tippy-Toe.

When Diana suggests about taking care of the 'problem' there's a rather devilish expression coming to her face. Maybe she wants to see the owner of this place actually having to deal with Diana but then she thinks better of it. That conscience people are trying to put in her! "Ah..., ok I was lyin'. This may have been sorta my fault. I will solve it." a beat. "Nothin' criminal. Huh, at least not in the traditional sense." she says, "But I gotta deal with the consequences."

A look to Ray and she comments. "Dude, yoh face gonna blow.." she says of his red face.

Doreen Green has posed:
Doreen Green points a thumb at Tippy-Toe, "Oh her name is Tippy-Toe! She's my bodyguard, strategist, and second in command of my Nuts and Boots Army! I'm a superhero and every squirrel in the world is my friend! We fight crime and save the world together! Tonight though.. is my day off. Drat.. didn't bring my ice skates.."

Tippy-Toe squees and puts on her own tiny ice skates. Where they came from is anyone's guess. The squirrel chitters something. Doreen replies, "You know your spare skates won't fit me! I guess we'll just have to hope that they don't notice me skating in my boots! Or maybe if we ask really nice they'll let me rent a pair!"

Doreen looks at Diana, "That would be awesome if you could get them to let her back in! I'm sure it was a misunderstanding.." She feels like they are all friends already, "This looks like a fun place for us all to have dinner.. and ice cream.. and ice skate!"

Diana Prince has posed:
Diana's eyes are pulled from the others as the well dressed, very tall, man starts to approach. He looks familiar, and she's rather sure she knows who he is, but she doesn't outright do anything about it in the immediate moment because he's not yet in any sort of threatening position... Cain is certainly noted though!

Harley gets a returned look from Diana who smiles softly at her and nods her head lightly two times. "I understand, it is best to fight our own battles after all. I hope they change their mind about you." She sweeps her stare back to Doreen, whose... everything... is just so sweet and endearing.

Diana smiles quite largely toward her, toward Tippy-Toe and their littles skates. "My goodness. You two are a ... vision." She says with a sincere level of pleased charm toward Doreen and TT. "It seems as though Harley is resolved to her fate in the moment though."

Diana points then toward Ray. "Though it looks as though he found a very suitable place for dinner." She states with a grin toward the young man with the burger.

Cain Marko has posed:
     Likewise a redhead, Cain's eyes settle briefly on ray. Staring at him for a few heartbeats, eyes briefly narrowing before he seemingly dismisses him, and turns his attention back to the pair of possible models and the cute girl with the tail interacting. He's not really hiding his watching them, but doesn't seem to be making any effort to draw their attention either. Just observing. Unless one of them is familiar with international criminals, they're unlikely to recognize him. His un-helmeted face doesn't tend to show up in the papers very often. Though the aftermaths of various superbrawls have put his armored persona on a few front pages over the years. His head cocks when Harley announces herself out loud. Okay... that name sounds familiar. He's never been very active in the Gotham crime scene. But he's at least heard rumors of the gal who used to date the Joker. Because anybody willing to date THAT guy has to be... unique.

Ray Terrill has posed:
        A frown is the response to Cain's narrowed eyes, and his face pales a bit -- just in time to hear Harley's comment. He takes another bite of his burger - without the mess this time - and takes a moment to wash that down as well while ... watching. He does respond to Diana though, with a simple, "It's good. Haven't had it before." He probably means the place, not the burger itself. He finally notices Doreen's tail, and says, "Guess it's not just New York, then."

        He then takes another bite -- he was hungry!

Harley Quinn has posed:
With everyone looking at the tall Juggernaut of course that Harley does the same, peeking and blinking a couple of times. "Well, look at that." she frames her fingers in a square as if it was a camera, getting Cain in the 'lenses' before nodding approvingly. Mmmhmmm. "See. Now that's how every security guard should be! I wouldn't mind bein' tossed outta moouh establishments if it was so.." a chortle escaping her. Harley is sorta familiar with the criminal underworld.. But without the suit? Heh, hard to recognize Juggernaut.

A glance back to Diana and Squirrel Girl and she grins, "Gosh!" she says of the tiny ice skates, holding her hands together, "They make heroes way toooo cute these days. Goodness me. I feel like I'd want ta be pinchin' yoh cheeks all day every day." she announces. "But ya can rent a paeh in theah. I know it, used ta be a regular."

"Now ya palin' out. Ya body needs ta decide whether it wants ta be excited, embarassed, a bit o' both? So what's yoh name? Since ya now know everyone's!"

A glance up at Di and she asks. "So, what ya doin' out heah in Gotham today? Sight seein'? This is a tough neighborhood though. Need an escort?" as if any neighborhood would be tough for Diana!

Doreen Green has posed:
Doreen Green sways a bit, "Oh! Well thanks you two!? She looks at Diana and Harley, "As for my name? Well you can call me Doreen! I'm called Squirrel Girl by most people though. And if they'll let me rent skates then there's no reason to be standing out here! I wonder if I can eat and skate at the same time...?"

She finally looks back at Juggernaut. Yep that guy is huge, "Can he fit in the door?" Ray pretty much goes unnoticed.. her attention span will not allow her to notice him!

Instead Doreen looks back at Harley and Diana, "The Nuts and Boots Army tries to maintain a semblance of... niceness.. all the time! Cute kind of just happens! I hope those security guards feel that way too.."

With that she's going inside! Tail and all! "You guys coming or what?"

Diana Prince has posed:
Diana smiles once more to Ray before she glances in Cain's direction, but ultimately lands her attention back on to that of Harley and Doreen. "I have an appointment with some colleagues, well... former colleagues, just down the street at the Gotham Arts Museum. You are welcome to come along if you would like, but... I cannot say it will be the most enjoyable experience if you are not already interested in such things." She states to Harley specifically with a light grin.

Doreen gets another sincere smile. "I wish I could join you, but I am already sworn to something. Perhaps we will have a chance in the future? If you make it up to Manhattan very often, it is my primary home."

The Princess glances down to her phone as it buzzes, then looks back up tot he others. "I should be getting to the Museum." She spares another glance to Cain and offers him a little smile as well, if he has a bad history with super heroes, she's not one to judge him in the now if he's behaving!

Turning to go, another look is given to Ray. "Make sure not to run around a lot after eating all of that." She says in good humor for the young man.

Ray Terrill has posed:
        Ray is ... well, he's finishing his dinner. And he still has lots of Gotham (and Metropolis) to explore, so with food almost done, he starts walking towards the next subway entrance to get on his way. He offers a faint smile and head-nod to the group in general, politely friendly, but heads on his way, backpack over a shoulder still. Looks like he's on a schedule, maybe? He lifts a hand in a half-wave towards Diana and company, with a simple, "Thanks." And he's gone.

Cain Marko has posed:
     Cain raises a brow when Harley 'pictures' him, the corner of his mouth quirking up. He can't help coming a little closer and noting to her, "Well, I doubt I'd toss you out given the choice, darlin. But that's just me." The skates wearing squirrel, he's not sure how to respond to that. Staring briefly at the tiny, furry creature, then the later furry creature. "Hunh." He scratches at his chin with a big hand. He's wearing a nice suit. But he's still a pretty blue collar guy, so his general attitude isn't particularly fancy. He glances over Ray and Diana again. "Have a nice evening, you two." Then he looks back at this pair. "Mmm. Name is Cain by the way... who're you two?"

Harley Quinn has posed:
"Remembah, just don't hurt the penguins if ya see any." Harley warns Doreen with quite the serious expression (as serious as a clownette can be), "Ta compensate theah martinis awhe great." there's always a good side! But it doesn't seem like Harley will be venturing back into the lounge now. Not good trying her luck! So she just waves at Squirrel Girl. "We totally should go kick ass crime togetha sometime..."

"I am Harley." She says up to Cain, tipping an imaginary hat in greeting to the man. "At yoh service. And dunno, if yoh weah bein' paid theah wouldn't be much o' a choice, would theah?"

To Diana she considers briefly, squinting her eyes, again that devilish little grin coming up. "Ya know, I once had ta study the place -thoroughly- foh a job. Ya see they had this really big diamond in display and ...." a sigh. "... then Catwoman happened. I think I might just go theah with yoh! Or at least close by, foh old times sake. Been a while since I have been near it."

Doreen Green has posed:
Doreen Green peers at Cain as he approaches. When he asks her name she replies, "Name's Squirrel Girl! Superhero! This is Tippy-Toe!" She points at the squirrel on her shoulder. She won't speak for anyone else though.

To Harley she replies, "I'd never hurt a penguin! Or anyone if I can help it! Is this like.. an ice skating rink, restaurant, AND petting zoo?!"

She then says to Diana, "Ah well.. I probably don't have enough money to buy everyone dinner anyway. Still I'll plan for it!" When Harley suggests fighting crime, Doreen nods, "Definitely! You're a superhero too?! You should meet my new friend Spider-Man! He fights crime.. and Riddler! He's an up and coming superhero I met the other day when Central Park got attacked by zombies.. and some death god.. thing...

Doreen beams with pride, "Yep.. the Nuts and Boots Army sure showed them! Riddler was a huge help! I think he's already got this crime fighting thing down.."

Harley Quinn has posed:
"A pettin' zoo? Well, depends on how friendly ya awhe with the owna.." And Harley leaves it at that. Really, it's better that she does..

"Riddlah..?" She is just about to continue on walking with Diana when that name brings her attention back to Doreen. She cackles like an hyena. "First time I heard him called A super hero! But .., I suppose he's changin' in a way. Still too much of a smart ass foh his own good. His face is just so punchable!"

She is still looking quite amused when she notes Diana moving on and quickens her pace to keep up, moving on down the street.

Doreen Green has posed:
Doreen Green replies to Harley, "Really? He did this.. electrical attack! And between that and the squirrels? Those zombies just gave up and basically killed themselves! And changing in what way? He didn't say anything about having a criminal past!"

Cain Marko has posed:
Eventually, Cain says to those assembled, "Maybe I'll run into you ladies another itme." He turns, and heads into the club.
