The PTA meetings increased in intensity when one Ms. Harleen Quinnzel started attending. Apparently some rich billionaire had decided to pay tuition for her daughter to attend. No one knows if this was to piss Sharon off by bringing âlower classâ students into Gotham Academy or not, but knowing Bruce, it probably was.
Harley almost immediately picked up on the hostility between Bruce and Sharon and was close to siding with Sharon when it clicked. Perhaps it was Wayneâs clenched jaw when Sbaron complained about how much of a brat Damian was. Perhaps it was the timbre of his voice when he asked Sharon âare you threateing meâ. Or maybe it was how he defended Harleyâs childâs right to get a good education, but at some point Quinn figured it out. Bruce Wayne was Batman.
She would have never guessed. She knew which side she was taking now⊠I mean he had paid for her kid to attend the school, but even then it was true that Damian was a Bra- wait⊠Did this mean Damian was Robin? Did this mean all the other kids Wayne had taken in were the past robins? She had never really thought of the robins as someones kidsâŠ. Maybe it was cause she was raising her own nowâŠ..
She watched as Wayne and Sharon continued their shouting match until she couldnât take it anymore
âSHUDDUP! YA REALLY THINK YER HELPINâ ANYONE BY BEING STUFFED UP SELFISH RICH FOLKS? There are kid out there that donât even have a hope of gettinâ the kind of edjucation that Gotham Academy offers! Besides, Mistah Wayne is right. Sabotaging the school picnic Justa spite âim was a low blow sistah. And I should know, who'da thunk there would be more honor among Arkham inmates than the hoity toities of Gotham City.â
Harleen sat back with a self satisfied smirk on her face. Dressinâ like a respectable citizen was worth it when you get to tell off both Batsy and his arch nemesis.
Ooh Joker would have a cow if he learned that Sharon was the reason Bats skipped going after the Clown Prince on PTA meeting nights.
Afterwards Bruce caught up with Harley outside, and told her that he had admired how she had been willing to stand up and tell them to put the needs of the students before the needs of their egos.
Harley just responded by telling him that maybe it was a lesson Batman could learn too.
Bruce arched an eyebrow as he put two and two together. And as he returned to the limo he silently noted to himself to never appear as Batman anywhere near Sharon, because if Harley could figure it out. Sharon probably could too.
( and thatâs that. I was tempted to add an epilogue making Sharon into a villainess secretly and have that turn into a whole thing, but sheâs not my creation so I donât want to take that step myself without @doomedsquad âs permission. )
