This is so unlike her and she knows it. She can't help it, though. That arena was hell. Everything leading up to that arena was hell. She was just so done with this place and if she couldn't rebel against the Capitol, well... she'd rebel against her parents like she always wanted to do.

If it weren't for the Nanites, she might even bring someone home with her.

Holiday had left her suite in the first thing her stylist had made her try on even as they complained that it wasn't stylish enough. She had already started on a few shots of bourbon to ensure that she didn't care at all.

Right now, she was out on the streets with these people she barely knew looking for a club to do things she had never done before, but dammit if she wasn't finally having a little bit of fun.

"Easter! Easter here you gotta try this!"

Harley had taken to Holiday as quickly as only someone desperate for attention could. She was clad in a dashing red,black and white ensemble complete with a pointed jesters hat, tight black leather pants and diamond patterns painted on her arms.

She thrust a tall frozen treat with globs of something red and purple in it.

"They used to call it a Harley Quinn before they started hating me." She explained.

[doc_holi]

Holiday had, oddly enough, taken an equal shine to Harley. She liked the girl's energy and enthusiasm. It was refreshing.

"Easter?" The doctor eyed the weird looking treat while a little voice in her head simultaneously mentioned that trying that may just be a bad idea. Holiday ignored it and sipped at it a bit. Then took a few more sips.

"I like it. It's good. What's in it?"

[revvinguptheharley]

"Sure! Because...Holiday. Duh." She explained and giggled.

"Some Jell-O shots, pop rocks, sprinkles, whipped cream, strawberry wine, and gummiebear and cotton candy vodka!" She explained cheerfully taking a long curly novelty straw and sipping from Holiday's glass.

"Because nothing goes better with drunk then a sugar rush!"

[doc_holi]

"I like it," Holiday chuckled. This girl sure did seem to have her own quirks.

Oh, good. A sugar rush. "I'm sure it'll do wonders for my hangover later. Thanks." She chuckled again, sipping at her drink. "Why did everyone start hating you anyway? That seems pretty unfair."

She's getting buzzed. Enjoy giggles and personal questions.

[revvinguptheharley]

"Aw it's this stupid thing." She slapped the cuff on her wrist causing it to spin uselessly. It tightened after a few rotations and stayed firmly in place.

"They seemed to think I was having some kind of mutinous thoughts against the capitol just because I was tryin' to figure out how to cause more fun chaos around town instead of waiting for the arena."

At least that's how Harley had put the pieces together after some hapless NPC had confessed to what they'd been told about the cuffs.

[doc_holi]

"Oh yeah."

Holiday wiggled her wrist where a green, fluffy band was. Under that was her own cuff.

"Not sure what I did to make them so paranoid, but that's okay, I guess." Well, it was probably somewhere between trashing her room, conversing with Punchy on possibly killing some important people, and punching her mentor in the face a few times.

Details, though.

"I don't mind the weird looks. Let them think what they want."

Besides, the cuffs were a good way to find out who was on her side.

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley wasted not a single moment in clanking her cuff against Holiday's in an awkward show of friendship.

"It stinks though! I love these people! They're just as crazy as I am! And they treated me so nice before with the parties and the food and gifts and love letters. But now it's all "Harley that's not funny." this and "Harley you're scaring away the customers" that. Buncha sour grapes. I tried really really hard to kill people last round for them too!" Harley had gone from manic to wibble in the space of time it took most people to flip a coin.

[doc_holi]

"I didn't kill anyone before or after and they still treat me strangely. I was going on sponsor dates constantly, but as soon as I was seen with this cuff, they've all cancelled and I haven't had one since."

Not really complaining about the lack of men trying to cop a feel, but she did enjoy surviving in the arena with some water and food.

On a side note, Harley's attitude towards killing should probably worry her, but it doesn't.

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley huffed and planted her hands on her hips. "The nerve! Why they should be ashamed of turning down such a hot ticket like you Valentine!" She threw her hands in the air.

"Who needs em? We'll have our own fun right? Then they'll see all the fun they've been missing!"

[doc_holi]

Holiday laughed again at the nickname. "That's right. I did perfectly fine in that arena with only one sponsor. I can manage having fun on my own, with you of course." Of course.

[revvinguptheharley]

"Of course!" Harley took Holidays hand and gave her a spin before dragging her along in a random direction.

"Look at it this way, win or lose? We're SUPERSTARS! Everyone knows our names and faces. And celebrities can behave badly."

To prove her point she grabbed a nearby citizen who screamed in panic before she snatched the wig off her head revealing her to have incredibly thin bland hair instead of neon green spikes. The clown princess shoved the citizen away and plopped the wig on Holidays hair awkwardly so her regular hair was still clearly visible.

"Did you SEE the look on her face?" She cackled.

[doc_holi]

"Harley, you can't do that!" Yet, Holiday's laughing while she scolds at the same time. Well, she was a little drunk already, but that was pretty hilarious.

Between giggles, she started trying to fix the wig.

[revvinguptheharley]

"I just did Columbus Day!" She shot back with a gleeful spin.

"Come on now, what's something you've always wanted to do? Ditch your responsible answers, nothing noble. What's the most selfish thing you've denied yourself and we'll see if we can't tickle that itch here in beautiful downtown Sodom and or Gomorrah."

[doc_holi]

HA! That was a notion. Holiday took a big swig of her drink.

"Well there is someone I've always wanted to do, but he's not here to do it to." There, she said it and she giggles some more.

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley squealed and wrapped her arms around herself in a giddy hug.

"Oooo! Uh well-a well-a well-a huh, Tell me more tell me more!" she urged on singing the request. She loved stories like this and so many of her friends from the games had them.

[doc_holi]

Holiday waved her hand around. "Oh, there's nothing to tell. We're just coworkers or friends or something like that, I don't even know. 'Sides, he lost years worth of his memories. He doesn't know who I am aside from apparently liking the way I look." Another gulp. This drink is good.

"What about you? Or do you at least manage to bag the guys you get an eye for?"

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley cooed eagerly at Holiday's story but when the tables were turned on her she laughed out loud and put an arm around her shoulders.

"Oh St. Patty, you have NO idea. There's only one man in the multiverse for me." Her voice sounded far away and in awe as she described her beloved. "That pale pasty skin, that sickly green hair, that manic laugh...that smile!" she clutched at her chest and sighed swooning on the spot and leaning into Holiday hard.

"My Puddin' Mr. J is the reason I am who I am today. I owe it all to him ya know? The good and the bad." She fanned herself with some napkins. "Sure we've had our rough patches. I bug him while he's working, he straps me to a rocket and fires it into the sky without aiming...but love overcomes all you know?"

She took a sip from the shared drink to continue "I just can't resist that man of mine. And if he were to show up in this world, he would be MVP in a week! Heck I doubt he'd even wait for the arena to start to start playing the game if you know what I mean." She pulled a thumb across her throat and pulled a comical "Dead" expression with her tongue flopping out and crossing her eyes.

[gruesome]

Some caught up with them at a light jog, trailing a white cape that he'd taken to, one with black and silver patterns on the inside that glittered as he moved.

"That's not safe for him," he interjected, even though he'd only caught the last few sentences. "... if I may say so. But they kill people who kill outside the arenas."

[doc_holi]

... "I'm not sure that's very healthy, Harley." Holiday's buzz was pushed to the side for a moment to go into Mother Mode™ for a second. "He sounds like a good fit for you, though."

Her attention was directed to Some when he appeared and she smiled to him. "Hey, Some! I'm so glad you could make it."
