Owner Pose
April O'Neil April is hiding in her bedroom.

From Frank.

He's been 'bugging her' since Ivy, and he, moved back in upstairs. On the roof.

She's in her room on a beanbag chair with her door closed. She's got her computer reading glasses on, a pair of grey and yellow sweatpants, and a tshirt with a yellow hoodie on. She's typing something on her laptop and listening to some music.

Beside her, under her bed, a leafy tentacle is creeping toward her, and she doesn't even realize it.

Humming along to her song, the auburn haired reporter seems lost in her own world.... typing away, her feet in pink and yellow striped socks, just bouncing away on the floor quietly.

Creep... creep.... creep.... tentacle....
Harley Quinn Listening to some music and lost in her own world means April won't hear the freight train that is Harley coming in through the front door. Nor the emergency tone Harley is speaking out to the couch, expecting for April to be there but then ...

It's empty?

"What the heck!" Harley looks around then notices April's room being close. "Oh, no ya don't!" she begins stomping over towards the room, "I hope ya ain't in theah with Casey cos I am comin' in!" and not even pausing when she burst the door open. It smacks open wide and there is Harley in all her glory! Which means dressed in a taco stand worker. She even has a hat on her head. With her is Gertie, the turkey also sort of dressed like a taco stand worker with a cute little beanie hat on her head.
"This is an emergency!" Harley exclaims, the turkey opens its wings and clucks and then Harley rushes over to get April off her seat and to the ground ..., as if to get out of sight of the window!

It means the poor tentacle gets trampled by those big clown feet. Poor Frank.
April O'Neil April is just tapping her feet to the beat of the music as the viney tentacle is about to reach her ankle when the door is flung open! The little vine goes limp and just lays there like no big deal coming out from under the bed, while Harley comes stomping in!

The reporter looks up with HUGE BLUE EYES!

"Harley?!" She asks. "Where the hell..." Then she's bounding over toward them and April can barely close her laptop in time before she's trampled too, and rolls on to her side. "What the heck?!" She says, her beanbag chair sliding out from under her as she looks toward the window, then toward her bewildering roommate beside her. "What are we doing?!" She whispers loudly.

"Are you still driving the Taco Truck?" She asks, regardless of her and Gerti's dress. She smiles at Gerti before she looks to Harley again.

"Ow, god damnit, ya freak bitches!" Frank loud whispers under the bed!

"What was that?" April asks.
Harley Quinn "Shhhhhh...!!!!" Harley exclaims, pressing a finger to April's lips when she whispers LOUDLY! "We awhe being very, very quiet..." big baby blue eyes wide and she wiggle-wiggling towards the window. She gestures for April to come along with her and then she starts creeping up towards the window to look out.... Inch by inch!

"The Taco truck is toast!" Harley then admits while Gerti pecks on the limp tentacle before clucking back to Harley's side. "So I was sellin' some tacos and rollin' on money. Like a boss bitch but then I saw this guy on the street that I just *knew* I had seen befoouh!" she says, "Turns out he was one of the big bounties out theah for villains! So I uh .., sorta tried ta hit him with the truck. Gently!" she lets out a dramatic sigh. "How could I know the guy turns into some kinda metal alloy and just sends it flyin'?!?!"

Maybe Harley should had read more about a Justice League enemy instead of trying to capture Metallo!

"So now we need to hide because I think he's...-" pause when Frank reveals his presence. "Frank! Shut the fuck up!" Harley tells him.
April O'Neil April is on her side near the window as Harley crawls up to it and peers out while telling her story. "The what?" April asks, confused, as usual. "The who?" She asks further, her eyes going to Gerti to see the vine coming out from under her bed, then the sound of Harley calling the plant man out.

"Oh, god damnit, Frank!" April says, not whispering anymore. "Get him, Gerti!"

"Ey! You damn chicken nugget extra value meal! Lay off my leafy bits! They're for April only!" Frank says from under the bed.

"How did you even get in here?! I had the door closed!" April loud whispers under the bed.

"Heh, heh, Frank been in here all night, baby cakes, listenin to that fine ass breathin' all night."

"Well that's freakin' creepy." April adds before she looks back to Harlyey. "Wait. You lost the Taco Truck? I thought you were making more money doing that than the bounty hunting thing?"

She's bad at being quietly, apparently....
Harley Quinn Gerti is a good soldier. And like all good soldiers she jumps over to start pecking over and over at those tentacles until they retreat! Harley grins, "I have been teaching her the art of war." hopefully not Sun Tzu. "And you creepo, Frank." her tone angry (and also louder) "I am the only one that can be under April's bed hearin' her sleep!" is Harley for real right now?!

"But let me go back to my story!" Harley then says. Because there's a story to tell here! And danger to avoid! She starts with the who. "That guy!" she places a finger on the window to point at a metallic man walking down the middle of the street. The man is looking here and there as if looking for someone. If one had to bet that would be Harley. There's also some charring on the metal, most likely from the truck hitting him. "Metallo or somethin'. I dunno, I think I should call Didi! This guy is sorta dangerous. I looked on google while I was runnin' from him. Definitely a swipe left."

The man doesn't seem to have noticed them yet. Or at all. And is continuing to walk down the street. It's metallic voice rises. "Harley Quinn! Where are you?!"

Harley smiles apologetically. "It probably wasn't a good idea ta come heah but I didn't know where else ta go! But anyways..., how things been with you?" casual conversation while hiding from a murder bot.
April O'Neil "You can bring yo fine ass under here with me too, Quinn." Frank can be heard under the bed still as he drops eaves on the two women's discussion. A white sock is flung out from under the bed at Gerti. "Back off, ya Thanksgivin' dinner!"

April peers up out of the window, and sees the metal man outside. "Woah." She says with her neck straining as she tries to get a good look at him. "He looks totally pissed off..." She states, dropping back down on to her elbow and some of the stuffed animals she has lining the floorboards of her room... so many stuffed animals in here...

"Wonder Woman? God, I'd love to meet her. I say yes, please call her and make her get rid of this guy. Then invite her up here to get rid of Frank." April says, kicking a foot under the bed at the hiding plant!

"Ow! Ya damn bitch! Ya gonna pay for that one later!" Can be heard coming out from under there, followed by. "Wonder Woman? Yeah, I second that motion. Call that hot piece over here, ol' Frank gonna work his chaaaarms on her!"

April just exhales heavily, then smiles at Harley. "Ivy moved in again, upstairs. She's got the place on lock down! I think, I dunno what she does up there, actually...."

"I got a few ideas..." Frank says with a little dirty laugh from the shadows.
Harley Quinn Gerti fusses indignantly when she gets hit with that WHITE sock. But with a more indignant look is Harley. She looks at the white sock plopping over like it was an enemy of the State. Lips pressed together.

"April..." tone ominous.

"Why do you have white socks in the house still?" Because those are the important questions. Not the killer cyborg out there looking for Harley. Or the fact the Frank is a creep! Nope. It's the white socks. Her nemesis. She just shakes her head and reaches over to take the sock and puts it by her side. "We shall destroy you later, little sock." she smiles down at it before her attention is back on April. "Anyways! Ivy is around now?! Great! Means I chose just the right time to come back. But yea, the truck is done for.. At least until I repair it, but it sort of exploded in a ball of fire so ..., uh..., not sure how long it will take. I got money though!"

She reaches for her phone and speeddials Diana. Because of course she has Diana on speeddial! Meanwhile Metallo continues down the street. They may just be out of danger! "And Frank ..., you realize that if ya continue messin' with April heah I won't be gettin' you that good weed I used ta bring you, right?"
April O'Neil "Aw, don't be like dat, Harley." Frank says under the bed. "And there's a whole stash'a these white socks under here. I been whiffin'em all night. The covered in O'Neil. Like I plan to be later." Gerti pecks one of his vines as it protrudes from the bed, and the plant man shouts out in surprise. "Ow! Ya damn rodent bird!"

April winces. "I guess I forgot about those? You know how I don't like looking under beds..." She tries to plead her case with the Judge Quinn before her on the ground...

While Harley dials the Princess of the Amazons, April spares another look outside. "He's going in to Old Man Jenkins Pick'n'Save. Maybe to reconnect with his own kind." April quips there at the end, checking to see if Harley 'got it'.

But then the one and only Wonder Woman answers the phone. She proceeds to ask Harley if she's okay, and that she only has a few minutes to talk because they're about to celebrate a little sick girl's birthday party at the Themysciran Embassy.

"Is that her?!" April whispers loudly again. "Oh my god, how cool is it that you have her number?!"

"Yo, share them digits!" Frank says from the shadows.
Harley Quinn "I was quite thorough when I searched the house lookin' foh those socks, April." Judge Harley isn't convinced at all with April's pleads. "Includin' under your bed. And none were left behind..." she looks soooo disappointed right now! "We will have ta talk about this later!"

Because Diana actually answers the phone! "Didi!" she exclaims. "Oh, a birthday party! That's great. And Stephanie is her name? Tell her Auntie Harley is wishing her a happy birthday!" focus on Metallo, Harley!

"We totally should go out again, yes. I have my friend heah, April that would love to meet you too. Did you know she has a podcast? You should go to it sometime.." a pause, "Anyway, not gonna keep you longer! Oh, by the way. There's this Metallo guy out heah in Manhattan? You guys may want ta investigate, he's going by my neighborhood right now. Come by sometime!" she smiles and winks at April. "Oh no, that's just a talking plant.." she says to Diana when Frank talks.
April O'Neil April glances back out the window as the metal man had vanished inside the old car picking lot. "Yep. He's definitely going to hang out in there for awhile. I hope the giant magnet thing gets him..." She mutters then before looking back at Harley who seems unconvinced about the socks. April just gives a sheepish expression before she starts to retreat. "Maybe I should get Gerti some food... clearly she's hungry, for something other than tacos!"

"Ooooh. I've been to Themyscira, but I still haven't met Wonder Woman." The reporter says as she gathers up the Turkey and starts to stand up, cause metal man is seemingly gone! "You look so cute, little Gerti, and I need you to protect me from the big bad Frank."

"Who gonna protect the Chicken Breasts though?" Frank mutters from under the bed as April starts to make for the door. "Where's the taco truck, anyway? We should tow it to Casey's shop...."

Diana is of course talking Harley's ear off now, and saying she'll alert the Justice League, and get someone sent over immediately to track the man down in question! She also invites Harley and April to come to the Embassy for a big art show next month.... so there's perks to random calling of Diana Prince!
