Joke Thirty: A gift for a friend

[crazyclownwoman]

 [A. Early Monday Morning: Action for istheatmosphere : Oh guess what! You're waking up now, on the ground in the middle of the park! Harley's in her clown costume and poking your shoulder. Man knocking people out and dragging their unconscious forms to a park is hard work.]

Hey, hey singing lady!

[B. Action for poisonivyforyou : Red, Red! Somehow Harley managed to get you to

[Except Red is still angry about the whole Spring Cleaning fiasco, so she'll be rather reluctant about this]

It better be worth the hassle, Harley.

[crazyclownwoman]

It is! I promise!

[Dragging you down the street.]

You're gonna love it Red!

[poisonivyforyou]

[They're lucky Harley is the impatient one, Ivy just follows along. She guesses she'll have time to run the hell out if this backfires.

And she's 75% sure it will indeed backfire.]

[crazyclownwoman]

[Such faith in your friend Ivy. Anyway, after a while, they'll finally get there.]

We're here! Okay now you can take the blindfold off!

[So happy! Take it off, take it off!

And of course when she does, Ivy will see that the park is COMPLETELY overgrown, with plants everywhere! So much green.]

So....what'ya think?

[poisonivyforyou]

[She loves her really]

If this is some half-assed prank I swear...

[And the blindfold goes off.

And there's.

Plants, plants everywhere.

So much grean and it's practically a jungle and oh my God.]

... You... you did this?

[crazyclownwoman]

Yup!

[Oh so proud.]

I kidnapped that singing lady you told me about! And she made all the plants grow really really fast!

[poisonivyforyou]

I... [She's at lost. She just steps closer the plants and reaches to touch them.]

For me. [She's barely making sense is she]

[crazyclownwoman]

Yeah! Cause you were sad!

So I got you some plants!

[poisonivyforyou]

[She laughs at that- more of a nervous laugh than anything else, really. Because how does one even react when somebody does. Does this for you and. Harley she's not sure what has Ivy done to deserve you but she's really glad she did.]

...Thank you.

[Even though those words feel so... little. Having the emotional intelligence of a cactus has its bad things too.]

[crazyclownwoman]

[However Harley practically BEAMS at the thank you! Hope you like being engulfed in a hug.]

Yay! I hoped you'd like it!

[poisonivyforyou]

[Well, it's good Harley's hugging her because Ivy was going to hug her either way and it's... kind of less embarrassing this way.]

I love it. It's beautiful. How long do I have to enjoy it?

[crazyclownwoman]

Um....

A day...

I know it's not very long. But it should be here till midnight!

[poisonivyforyou]

No, it's enough.

[She reaches for Harley's hand, gives it a quick squeeze then lets it go as she breaks the hug. She's trying her best here though!]

Let's get lost inside.

[crazyclownwoman]

Yay!

[Smile is back.]

Okay!

[poisonivyforyou]

[And to the forest she goes, taking a while to get familiar with the kind of plants there is]

[crazyclownwoman]

[And Harley will skip around with her, sometimes running off to explore and sometimes just watching Red with her plants.

Seriously she is so happy you like this Ivy.]
