    Summary

    “The places at all of your preferred facilities were already filled by the time we noticed the error,” Dr Irving said, ripping off band aid after band aid until Harley felt bloody with it, “you’ll be placed at another location I’m afraid.”
    “Where?”
    Please not there, she thought desperately as the pause dragged and the dream resurfaced again. The laughter ringing through her skull, Please if there’s a God don’t let it be-
    “Arkham Asylum.”
    Well fuck.
    --
    Eight years after escaping Gotham city, Harley finds herself right back where she started. A resident at Arkham Asylum she promises herself she can handle just about anything... anything except him. But hey, what are the chances that they'd give a newbie like her control over the most infamous patient in the asylum? Fingers crossed she'll never have to see him again, the man she knew as Jerome. The nightmare they call The Joker.

    (Sequel to 'The Imperfect Art of Madness, a future AU written during the S4 hiatus so completely uncanon-y after that point! Gotham elements grown into a more familiar DC universe. Yet another Harley origin story full of murder, mayhem and the contagious properties of madness. Joker/Harley.)
