[sigmund_droid]

I remember awhile ago members were trying to explain to me the deep relationship that Ivy and Harley have.

WELL ABOUT THAT

The status quo has no time for friendship! Only stabbing!

Why didn't Ivy notice Joker cutting her vines? Shouldn't she be aware of her plants taking damage?

[sigmund_droid]

Three posts in and you asked the question I was hoping would be asked.

Writer's have shown her have different emphatic responses to plants being hurt but she should at least be aware of this...

The very notion she's apparently dumb enough to turn her back ON THE JOKER trumps the "isn't she plant-empathic?" bit to me.

[darkblade]

The fact that she didn't use those vines to snap Mr. J's neck outright beats turning her back on him.

[crabby_lioness]

And Gaimen's Ivy would have.

So focused on turning Harley to her side?
Okay, I've got nothing.

as i said above, and without reading the rest of the issue, Ivy is not stupid, I think THIS is her plan, she KNOW the Joker, she feels her plants. The only way to snap Harley back is to show her that the Joker has no love for ANYTHING. she needs to shock her back to reality. she wants to save Harley even if it means her life. (though being part plant i think she knows she can survive that)

[shadowpsykie]

also (barely noticing those are Harley's thoug boxes) maybe she is trying to get the Joker close enough and unawares so that she can take him out (knowing that the way she came at him, head on, would not work) alternatively she might want Joker to get close enough to Ivy so that Ivy will react.

maybe i am giving the writer too much credit, but as coo koo as Harley is, she is als VERY intelligent. maybe Harley is right, and WE are underestimating her.

I'm afraid we're already too far into "Harley murders innocents and participates in grotesque torture" territory for me to care much. If that IS her plan, it's a very, very bad plan.

[mommy]

It's a gleaming plot hole, is what it is.

[sherkahn]

As also mentioned before, Ivy may be taking one of the team. She may be playing that the sight of the Joker stabbing her might snap Harley out of it.

That's what I am hoping.

Because the plot requires most of the characters to be utterly stupid to work.
