Poison Ivy had reclaimed and cleaned up the botanical gardens after getting out of the Asylum. It was quite offensive to her that someone else had dared to set foot in her domain while she was gone, what was worse was that they seemed to have fought with her babies, but she’d find them and have her revenge soon. Her babies had done a fine job defending themselves and the gardens, but no matter. People who hurt her darlings deserved anything she could come up with. She wanted more than that though. It wasn’t enough that a few people paid for trespassing in her home. It wouldn’t be enough until she’d seen humanity on its knees, brought down by the very thing it would never stop destroying – nature.

Ivy turned on the sprinkler system to give her babies water and nutrition, then sat down on a bench to enjoy it with them. It wasn’t long afterwards that she became aware that someone was approaching the gardens. The plants told her. Those who’d grown so large that they had burst through the walls and the ground, growing sprouts and flowers in the nearby vicinity outside. It was a marvel to behold the destruction they’d caused on a human structure, and continued to do the more they grew. 

She was prepared to use force on whoever it was this time, but decided to wait until they entered. It would be difficult for them to get away if they did step inside. Some of her more carnivorous darlings needed food too. Surprisingly, the individual shouted for her to open and knocked on the door. Ivy wasn’t as surprised by who it was, as Harley might be one of the few people who didn’t just barge in anymore. Perhaps the times she’d ended up caught in vines had taught her something. Harley was also one of the few, maybe only, humans she didn’t outright hate. She wasn’t sure why the woman had come to visit her though, or if she should let her in.

Ivy remained silent and motionless at first, but got up when Harley said she was leaving. There was no harm in asking why she’d come to visit, maybe she had something important to tell her. The door was opened behind Harley as she began to walk away by one of the vines. Ivy soon emerged, and placed herself in the door. Her body was somewhat soaked after she’d relaxed in the sprinkler system, but it didn’t bother her and felt good. 

“Ah Harley, to what do I owe the pleasure?” Poison Ivy said, and leaned against the wall. “It’s been a while since I had such a late night rendezvous with anyone.”
