Spoiler: Are we sure this is a good idea?
Oracle: *over radio* I'll have eyes on you the entire time and backup standing by just in case. But I think it'll be fine.
Spoiler: I hope you're right.
*knock at the door. Spoiler and Orphan look to one another sigh and open the door. Poison Ivy is standing there.*
Poison Ivy: Where is she?
Narration: Pamela Isley, a.k.a. Poison Ivy, former eco-terrorist and Harley Quinn's girlfriend.
Orphan: This way.
Harley Quinn: Ives! You're here!
Poison Ivy: I thought we'd talked about avoiding getting hit.
Harley Quinn: It's not as bad as it looks!
Poison Ivy: Oh really? Because it looks like you're severely injured.
Harley Quinn: Could a severely injured person do this? Boop!
Poison Ivy: She's on the good pain meds, huh?
Orphan: Yes.
Poison Ivy: Why don't you get some rest? I'll be here when you wake up.
Harley Quinn: Promise?
Poison Ivy: Promise. *to Spoiler and Orphan* You can go now.
Spoiler: Yeah, that's not how this works. Harley got injured on one of our ops. That means we stay until she's back on her feet.
Orphan: Our teammate. Our responsibility. We stay.
Poison Ivy: Fine. Just don't expect us to become best friends or anything.
Orphan: Fine.
Spoiler: *to break the awkwardness* Sooo, what do we call you? Dr. Isley? Pam? Ivy? Dr. Ivy?
Poison Ivy: Ivy's fine.
Spoiler: Ivy. Cool. That's cool.
Spoiler: Hey, can you tell me what I'm doing wrong with my house plant? Hold on, I've got a pic somewhere...
Poison Ivy: I told you, I'm not interested in-- What did you do to the poor thing?
Spoiler: Hey! I don't know! I'm following all the instructions!
Poison Ivy: It looks like you're over-watering it.
Orphan: Too much water is bad? ... What?
-----------------------------------------------------
The next day
Harley Quinn: Ives?
Poison Ivy: See, if we put them on the balcony, they'll get just enough sunlight in the afternoon.
Spoiler: Can you walk me through the watering schedule again?
Harley Quinn: Well, you've all been busy.
Poison Ivy: How are you feeling?
Harley Quinn: I'm fine. Did you have fun making friends?
Poison Ivy: Shut up. We're not friends.
Harley Quinn: Uh-huh. Totally. They just kinda grow on you, don't they?
Poison Ivy: Yeah, they kinda do.
