The Right Side of Wrong

L.O.D.R.S.V.P. Part 1

Veronica's POV:

After the crew returns from a fight against Aquaman, every news channel talks about it. And Harley got a letter from the LOD.

Harley: "Holy shit! Guys, guys, listen. 'Dear Ms. Quinn, Based on your recent evil efforts, the Legion of Doom invites you, your sister, and your crew to our headquarters to discuss further possibilities.-*squeals in excitement*-Guys, this is what we've been working towards. Dump Joker, check. Get noticed by the Legion of Doom, check. I did it. Even though no one said I could run a crew."

Ivy: "What? Hello. Hi. Ronnie & I said that you could run a crew."

Harley: "Yeah, but you're my friend, and Ronnie's my sister. Come on. It's like the your mom says you're the prettiest girl in school."

King Shark: "That's why my mom said! Shark genitalia is very hard to see. Until it isn't."

Psycho: "This is huge for us. Means that we might get to move out of this shithole."

Sy: "I will have you know, Norm Dilfer, the Carpet King of Gotham, found this mall more than satisfactory."

Suddenly, a roar sounds from nearby, causing the whole building to shake from the impact.

King Shark: "What the heck is that noise?"

Psycho: "Oh, yeah. That shit's been keeping me up. I haven't been able to get a lick of sleep for days."

Sy: "I didn't hear any noise. And you can count me out of this Legion of Doom business."

Psycho: "Hey, Harley, since I've been banned for life, I probably shouldn't come. But, maybe you can mention I'm reformed and I don't call women c*nts anymore. You know, don't push it, but if it comes up organically."

Harley: "Yeah, I don't really see a scenario where that comes up 'organically', but I'll get you in."

Me: "You did it, Harley! Congratulations!"

Harley: "Hey, you're on the invite, too. This is as much my victory as it is yours."

I wouldn't be so sure about that. I believe in my sister, and if she gets in, I couldn't be any more proud, but it also means I'll lose the bet with Riddler. If he's serious about what that involves, I'll have some explaining to do when Harley and the gang find out.

Ivy: "You're on the verge of achieving your dream. And I really do wish I could be there to see it."

Harley: "But, your name's on the invitation, same as Ronnie. You gotta come."

Ivy: "Well, that's clearly a misprint, because I'm-"

Everyone: "Not in the crew."

Ivy: "Yeah, what they said."

Harley: "Fine. Be like that. I guess if I run into Joker there, I'll just deal with it without my best friend by my side."

Me: "Um, hi."

Harley: "Oh, I know you'll be there, Ronnie. 'Cause Riddler will be there too."

Me: "Oh, my God. Harley, we've been over this a thousand times. Riddler and I are just-"

Everyone: "Friendly acquaintances. Nothing more, nothing less."

Me: "Exactly. We may fraternize tonight, but that's it."

I wish. The second Riddler sees me there, he'll dangle our deal over my head like a cat with a toy mouse.

Me: "But, I would need some help to make sure it stays that way."

Ivy: *sighs* "Ok, I'll go."

Harley: "I knew you would."

Ok, now that's taken care of, it's time to support the shit out of my sister!
