[ literally the morning after their fun at insecurity, harley's having something of an identity crisis. ]

so you should probably know there's another me here now

not really sure on the deets yet but
apparently multiple universes are a thing?
and i thought you should know about it if we're
hanging out

[redrighthanded]

[ Hey, he's had worse messages out of the blue. And the sight of her contact on his screen makes him smile a little. ]

multiple universes?

you sure she's not a changeling?
try to get her near some iron, they hate that. really easy tell.
used to keep a horseshoe on me for that but I lost it coming here
could use a fire poker or something

[mahem]

you know
alternate universes
like other earths i guess

you think she could be?
i mean she looks SO much like me
it's a little weird

no tattoos though that i can tell

[redrighthanded]

I dunno
where I come from when there's suddenly two of the same person that's usually what it is
can get pretty messy

wouldn't it be weirder if she was you but she didn't look like you?

I like the tattoos

[mahem]

huh
hadn’t even thought of that
you deal with those a lot back home?

guess you’re right about that
she could be a brunette or something 😉

yeah?
you got a favorite yet?

[redrighthanded]

not a lot but they're pretty memorable

do I have to pick a favorite? not sure I've even seen them all

at least there's a way to tell you apart
you worried about her?

[mahem]

hmm good point
maybe that's next
letting you get a good look at each one
so you can pick for yourself

if she's the type of harley i think she is
she might be even more unpredictable than me
and that's saying something

[redrighthanded]

next?
there a list I should know about?

unpredictable isn't always a bad thing

is there a bad type of Harley?

[mahem]

only the one i just started added onto right now
suggestions welcome of course

well
if she's the one who's still wrapped up in her ex
OUR ex
that unpredictability kinda manifests in being dangerous
i should know

[redrighthanded]

I'll think about it
maybe give you a top five

you don't seem so dangerous to me [ Though his scale of dangerousness might be a little different than most people's. ]

[mahem]

no worries if you can't make up your mind right away

well you might be biased, red
but trust me if i had to shrink myself
at least me from when i was with j?
that's a whole lotta mental wrapped up in one person

[redrighthanded]

I dunno much about that kinda thing, but most people have some bad stuff in their closets
doesn't always make them bad people
sometimes it's just how things turn out

does her being more dangerous mean she's gonna be a problem?

[mahem]

yeah well
call it crazy coincidence
emphasis on the crazy
and meeting somebody who knew how to manipulate things to his advantage

honestly
i have no fuckin clue

[redrighthanded]

sounds like you've both got some stuff you need to work out. especially if you're gonna be stuck here together

tough thing to wake up to though
assuming you've been to sleep

[mahem]

guess we'll get there when we get there

oh i caught some z's earlier
turns out somebody wore me out last night

[redrighthanded]

wish I could buy you breakfast
feels like the gentlemanly thing to do

[mahem]

you know
i love breakfast

most important meal of the day

[redrighthanded]

yeah? me too

is there a good place for it around here?

[mahem]

WELL

i know a great 24 hr diner in the up
breakfast all day
if something like that floats your boat

[redrighthanded]

sounds like my kinda joint
do they do good pancakes?

[mahem]

the pancakes are ULTIMATE

i'm kinda partial to the bacon and eggs myself but obviously i've never shied away from a good combo
sometimes i just slap it all on a toasted buttered roll
nothing beats a breakfast sammy

[redrighthanded]

girl after my own heart

well, any time you wanna go there, let me know
maybe one day I'll pay you back for those drinks

[mahem]

oh that's not all i'm after

not gonna lie
i kinda want to watch you dig into a monster plate of pancakes
besides
those of us without the marks have gotta look out for the ones that do, right?

[redrighthanded]

you saying these are gonna be pity pancakes?
or maybe you just want me covered in syrup

[mahem]

well truth be told i hadn't even thought of that
see now you're just givin me good ideas
