Harmonia, dressed in her Harms-Way outfit, sat on a rooftop. God, couldn't she save any of her siblings? Lucille refused to come with her and was probably doing, or at least planning, a crime right now. She couldn't convince her to come with her and she hasn't been able to catch her.
Then, there was Sammy. They broke their criminal father out of prison and was now- well, lord knows where that bitch was.
Couldn't she save anyone?
After a moment, Harmonia heard footsteps behind her. Her first assumption was that it was Bruce, maybe another one of her vigilante siblings. If she was really lucky, it was Sammy or Lucille. So, when she turned to look behind her, the last thing she was expecting to see was pixie-cut sporting ginger in overalls. After a moment, Harmonia recognized her.
Marigold Isley.
Marigold, presumably noticing Harmonia's distress at recognizing her, put her hands up in a surrender like motion. "I mean no harm, I swear." She took a step forward before pausing. "I'm Marigold, but you already know that. Do you mind if I sit next to you?"
"Um, okay then."
Marigold tentatively walked over and sat next to Harmonia, the two sitting in silence for a few minutes before the blonde broke it.
"Marigold's a pretty name. Though, my favorite flowers are peonies."
Marigold let out a slight laugh, and Harmonia smiled slightly. "I'm Harmonia." She said, looking over at Marigold, holding out a hand for a handshake. Marigold then shook her hand. "The Greek goddess of harmony." She said with a nod. "Are you upset about Sammy?"
"Of course I'm upset about Sammy." Harmonia replied almost instantly as she pulled her hand away. "God, I should have done more. I knew they were going back to Arkham. I just...even if they did that, I didn't think they'd do this."
Marigold sighed. "Yeah, I don't...it's all just weird if I'm being honest. I never saw Sammy doing something like this either."
"And they met him- what?! A month ago?!" Harmonia took a deep breath in. "Fuck. Can't I save one sibling?"
The ginger tilted her head. "What do you mean?" She asked.
"I have a younger sister. Her name's Lucille, you might know her as Sealed-Deal, though." The blonde replied. "And I can't help but feel like I failed her. I keep trying to help her, have her see the light on the other side, but she's so stubborn. I want to help her, but she keeps digging her heels in. I've failed Lucille, I've failed Sammy, who will I fail next?"
"Neither of those sound like your fault," Marigold said after a moment, putting a hand on Harmonia's shoulder. "Lucille's made her choice, Sammy's made their choice, neither of those are your fault."
"Easier to say it than believe it."
"Fair enough."
For a few more minutes, the two sat in silence, before the ginger stood up.
"Welp, I told my mom I'd be home soon." She said, rubbing the back of her head. "Maybe we can meet again tomorrow night? Same spot?"
Harmonia gave Marigold a slight smile. "You're not gonna use this against me?"
"Sammy was my friend before they were your sibling. I swear on all I hold dear I won't." She then turned around and was gone.
After a few more minutes of sitting alone, Harmonia stood up and headed back to the manor.
