Harley quits Dunwich PD.WARNINGS TBD.
And by 'lately', it had actually been the past two months or so. Gradually, over time, Harley had started to realize that maybe, she wasn't cut out for this whole 'good guy' thing.
Back at home, in her world, Harley had joined the Bat Family. She had become a bonafide hero, even putting strain on her relationship with Ivy in order to accomplish this goal. She even lived at the Bat Cave instead of with her super hot girlfriend. THAT was how dedicated she was to the cause!
Here in Dunwich, she believed she could do the same thing. Or close to it. Join Dunwich PD, do good shit, do things that would have made Bat Girl proud of her. And Harley had done exactly that, for a little while.
But doubt was creeping into her mind. For weeks now, she had tried to ignore it. Fight it, shove it down, bottle it up. And boy, had that worked. Sort of. While Harley was awake, everything was totally fine. But when Harley was asleep, she was totally not fine. She'd been sleepwalking and breaking things around her home.. only to not remember it in the morning.
Well. She remembered now. Or rather.. she had watched the security footage from the cameras they had installed around the house. The cameras hadn't caught her smashing appliances, but they had caught her breaking the cameras, the footage going fuzzy after her bat collided with the lens. Another case of her sleep-destroying, of course.
So yeah. It was her. She was the problem. She was the one ruining her own home. All because she felt like she was being a big ol' fake, doing this 'good guy' shit. She was no hero. She was a villain at her core. She just needed to accept it. Thursday morning, she'd drag herself over to the police station, sobbing as she started packing her things away. She was gonna miss Hop. And Kay. Maybe Constantine. But mostly Hop and Kay.
