Apartment on the Mainland; Sunday Evening
Had there been events happening on the island over the weekend? Harley was unaware, because the last time she'd actually been on Fandom had been Thursday night. The Halloween party had been great, but talking to Pam had been getting yelled at by Pam, and Steven hadn't been around so Marc hadn't been around, and so... Getting home from the party, Harley had made a snap decision - she was fantastic at those! - and she'd grabbed Bruce, and skedaddled onto the mainland with him in tow.
And, just to be clear: she had neither been run off of nor even merely spooked off of the island! She was just taking a much-needed break to have some quality time with her associate/apprentice! That was it! Important mentoring! And if some of that mentoring involved - like it did that particular evening - the importance of testing just how much extra cheese one's favorite pizza place could be cajoled into putting on a pizza? Well, knowing how to take breaks was an important skill, too.
Cass was trying to extricate a slice from the incredibly cheesy box of... mostly cheese, only slightly pizza. "So," she started, as the cheese between the slice in her hand and the slices still in the box just stretched and stretched, "not trying to throw you out, or anything..."
"Not that you even could," Harley cut in with a scoff without missing a beat, "place is under my name."
"Yeah, that too," Cass deadpanned. "But, like, have you thought about when you're gonna want to go home? You know, to the island?"
"I dunno," Harley replied, oh so casually, leaning forward to give a few scritches to the hyena curled up at her feet. He was watching the cheese raptly. "When I feel like it again."
Maybe she'd make like the cheese and see how long it took for something to snap.
