Chương 47: “The First (and Only Public) Time Joker Cried

Chapter 47/1 – "The First (and Only Public) Time Joker Cried" Year 1483 – Elara has such a strong breakdown that she starts banging her head against the wall, screaming "I couldn't save you all!" Joker enters the room in silence. No joke. No crooked smile. He kneels in front of her, holds her face with his trembling little hands, and cries—thick, real tears that no one had ever seen. — Big sis… look at me. This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings. We're alive.

I'll kill the entire world before I let anyone touch you again. Elara collapses into his arms, the two of them crying together on the floor. Harley enters right after, hugs them both from behind, and whispers: — We're crazy, but we're crazy for all of you. No one ever brought it up again. But everyone knows: Joker cries. Only for family. Chapter 47/2 – "The Hammer That Turned Into a Pillow" 1484 – Elara has a nighttime crisis and can't sleep.

Harley enters her room carrying the giant pink hammer (now the size of her body). — Close your eyes, big sis. She lays Elara's head on the hammer like it's a pillow, hugs her from above, and stays there singing a distorted children's lullaby until Elara falls asleep. The next day Elara wakes up with the hammer's pattern imprinted on her face and smiles for the first time in weeks.
