seventy-two types of hissei

[Ahh, the most familiar sight on the Plane: a desk with paperwork. Such visions still haunt the nightmares of many.]

[This particular desk comes with a boy and his notebook leaning against it. He's still in his school uniform, but when is a Japanese manga teenager not?]

I'm taking a census on the natures of the worlds from which people here come, including any changes made to that world since an individual's arrival here. Any information would be helpful.

[She nods, tilting her head.]

Well, it still needs to be pieced together but a couple of people I know are here.

Their names, please.

Professor Crane and Eddie and Jerry!

Full names.

Ohhh, yeah. Professor Jonathan Crane, Edward Nygma and Jeremiah Arkham. [She pauses and then throws up her arms.] Fiiine! And I'm Harleen Quinzel, okay? But just call me Harley, got it? It's weird when people call me by anything else now.

Thank you, Quinzel-san.

[She pouts.] Harley.

I wouldn't be comfortable with that level of familiarity.

Well 'Quinzel-san' sounds weird.

You based your name after a type of clown. Anything will sound weird.

'Harley' was my nickname long before I met my puddin'!

I have no idea what you're saying, but as we aren't close friends, I can't refer to you as anything but Quinzel-san.

[well, he could]

[but he doesn't want to]

[though it would've been a moment of 'well whatever' with most people]

How come?

[Though it should be noted Harley's mind zoomed in on 'close friends' and she is now going 'hmm...']

Even in America, there are levels of politeness.

And that's why I said 'call me Harley'! Ya see? Gets around all that.

Isn't that a vehicle?

[Harley smirks and leans over the desk.] Yeah, it's a motorcycle. Why, wanna go for a ride? [She tilts her head.] Too bad ya need to be this tall, dark and green to rev this Harley.

[his expression can only be summed up as "B|" but hey! Harl knows Batman. It's not unfamiliar]

You're not my type.

[Yeah she recognizes that face.]

Yeah, well, I like my guys funny and you're way too blue.

[disdainful expression at the pun! He picked it up from Krad or something]

Saehara-kun could do better.

Like you'd know a good joke if it stabbed ya in the gut! Some people's laughin' gears just ain't turnin'.

If that's your sense of humour, I wouldn't. Crime isn't funny.

Yeah? And what makes you such a great judge of what's funny?

Is that your sense of humour?

The whole world is a joke and we're just the punchline, shorty. So yeah, crime's funny. So's a banana peel and a whoopie cushion. Ya gotta just laugh and roll with the punches, kiddo, 'cause if ya don't, you'll get a kiss in the smacker.
