Wolverine has posed:
Another unexpected turn, another night in a new bar, and another night alone. Logan's starting to hate dating apps. Yes, he's had a little luck, but nothing great. And the luck has been worse than better. A few times in the past he's been stop up. Today it's the same. Well, over an hour late and messages on read.

Logan just shakes his head, eyeing his phone with messages that clearly say, "Read." Yet, they sit free of replies.

Sitting toward the left side of the bar, he points to the spot in front of him. "Another," Logan says firmly to the tavern and waits for his drink to be pushed forward. He has a taste for expensive beer. That's tonight's poison.

Harley Quinn has posed:
     Harley Quinn struts into the bar with her usual swagger, but this time she's decked out in full cowboy gear. A wide-brimmed black hat sits low on her blonde pigtails, casting a mischievous shadow over her bright eyes, one blue, one pink. Her outfit is a wild mix of the Old West and her chaotic style?leather chaps over distressed denim shorts, a fringed jacket covered in patches, and a gun holster slung low on her hip. Her boots clink with every step, silver spurs catching the light as she moves with a playful confidence. The bar falls silent for a beat, heads turning to watch as she flashes a grin, eyes glinting with trouble and fun. In one hand, she twirls a lasso like a whip, and in the other, she?s holding her oversized mallet, painted to match her cowboy look. Harley winks, tipping her hat before making her way to the bar, ready to cause some chaos in her new Western getup "Any of you yolks hear of a guy named sabertooth?? Ah neeed to settle a score".

Wolverine has posed:
Logan's wondering what kind of bar he wandered into when Harley appears. First it's the outfit that's best defined as Cowboy Curtis meets Chaos. The thing is a mismatched oddity in denim and leather. Plus, there's the weapons. He thinks about going. Yes, the cowboy might be cute, but she's clearly into some scenes that he isn't.

And then one phrase keeps him in place. "Any of you folks hear of a guy named Sabertooth?'" Oh, she has his attention.

"What did he do to you?" he asks. There's a weight to his words. Plus, he's not asking the usual demographics. It's like Logan knows him, or knows enough, to ask the question he starts with rather than the basics.

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley, for her part, blinks. It's not often she's the taller person in a chat " You know that Shit heel pile of fur? " She blinks, walking closer to him.

     She sniffs. " He and I rumbled into a bar.. I owe him. " Translation: she lost and ran away, and now she wants revenge. especially since you can see several vials and various other items on her belts! Clearly she's come prepared this time.

Wolverine has posed:
Height difference stopped bothering him a long time agao. A swift kick to the knee will bring anyone to even height, mostly. Still, he will just listen to the woman speak and her stories.

"He's done that before. You'd probably find him n Cananda or on Genosha," he says matter of factly. Those seem to be some of the rare safe havens the mutant has. "Either way ya need someone that knows the right n' warm clothes. "Canada gets pretty cold," he says giving her out appreiie idea for clothing if Harley deciddes to go North.

Harley Quinn has posed:
     Harley moves to a chair and beams " I know canada! been thier once or twice " . Harley Quinn leans back in her chair, boots kicked up on the table, as she starts to recount her latest "adventure." Her eyes are wide with excitement, hands gesturing wildly as she speaks.

     "Okay, you ain't gonna believe this, but I just got back from a little trip, right? Decided to head up north " like, way up north. Canada, baby! The land of hockey, maple syrup, and all them cute little beavers. So, there I am, chillin? in the snow "literally, 'cause it's colder than Mr. Freeze?s heart up there. But I'm not stoppin? in Canada, oh no. I get this brilliant idea. I'm thinkin', 'What if I go all the way to the North Pole? You know, where the big guy lives!'"

     She winks, twirling a lock of her blonde hair between her fingers. "So, I hop on a snowmobile I ?borrowed? from some overly nice Canadian fella seriously, I take it and he's just like, 'Oh, no worries, eh? Stay warm!'" and zip on up to the actual North Pole. I'm freezin' my butt off, thinkin? maybe I bit off more than I can chew, when BAM! Outta nowhere, this massive, jolly red-and-white dude shows up. And guess who it is?"

     She pauses dramatically, her grin widening as she leans in. "Santa freakin? Claus! Yup, the real deal! He's ridin' around on his sleigh with them reindeer Dasher, Dancer, all those guys and he's like, ?Ho ho ho! Harley Quinn, what brings you up here?? I?m standin? there, freezin' like a popsicle, and I say, ?I wanted to see what all the fuss was about! Got any hot cocoa??"

     Harley claps her hands together, still buzzing with excitement. "And you know what? He did! Santa invites me to his workshop no joke! It?s all cute and cozy, with little elves makin? toys and stuff. I even helped! Well... kinda. I might?ve turned some of those toy trains into little explosives just for fun! Santa wasn?t too thrilled, but come on, the guy?s all about joy and chaos, right? I was just addin? a little Harley flair. That and some idiot was trying to ruin chrismas.. Pg was there with me too "

Wolverine has posed:
Sabretooth lived there. He has history there n' that's if ya find him," he looks at her. Seeing the way she talks. The wink mixed with the elaborate plan. "Santa?" Yeah, she's nuts, but he won't say it. Logan believes she's wrongd. It's just everythign after that point does he begin to question everything.

Those ocean blue eyes will slip back to the woman as she talks about Santa and everything. "I believe ya," he doesn't. He'll just humor Harley. "Best bet is Cananda, DArlin'," he'll emphasize.

Harley Quinn has posed:
Harley Blinks " he kicked my ass a few days ago. How the hell did he get to Canada that fast.. I doubt a big fucker like him takes planes," she snorts "That and I think they wouldn't let him, ya know the claws, and all that " She makes a motion with her hands.

     She sighs " If ya didn't know where he was ya coulda said better " she spits to the side.

Wolverine has posed:
"Trust me. He's there. IT's where he live after a while. N' he knows how to get into the country," he says honestly. Logan knows how the man workds. "Just trust me cowpoke," he will look at the beer that's been brought to him for a little bit now. The sight of Harley throws him off.

Taking the bottle, he knocks it back. "Just trust me darlin'," he gives her a nod. "Canada's yer best bet," he looks at her for a moment. "Try near Alkaline Lake. Locals will have stories," he and eh sets the bottle down. Logan's going to try and salvage his night.
