In between spinning, he was checking in books. So productive.

Library's closed except for the librarian and other aides.

Now that all the books are checked in, he's just spinning.

Far be it from Adah to interrupt a spectacle such as this. Limping into the library as usual, she decided to stay back for a bit to see exactly how long the Eel could do all that spinning until he realized that she was there. And not laughing at him, really. At all. Not externally, anyway, although her head was tilted in amusement.

Lee was perfectly happy spinning and staring at the ceiling until...he went a little too fast and nailed his knee on the desk.

That effectively stopped the spinning but it did leave him muttering curses.

There was a visceral wince at the sound of the Eel's knee clunking the desk, lingering in the form of a lip bitten out of both sympathy and the effort not to grin too much at the trail of curses that followed. She figured the pain-inspired reaction would disable him enough that she'd get close enough to the desk without him realizing to chastise, "Using language like that in a library. Well, I never." She spoke more loudly than usual to penetrate through the string of swears, playing her accent into it heavily for effect, but it still maintained her usual soft, teasing tone.

"The desk bit me," he said, laughing now that his knee stopped throbbing. "You're not going to tell on me, are you?"

"You know me," Adah commented wryly as she leaned her hip comfortably on the desk, despite the possible threat of its newly discovered carnivorous nature. "Blabbing to nearly everyone I see." Her head tilted, smile sharpening softly. "Are you okay?"

"Fine," he said, tapping his knee with his hand. "Just a bump. Stationary desks are dangerous things, you know. How are you?"

"No longer concerned," Adah answered with her usual lopsided grin, "that I'll be interrupting anything important by visiting you today."

"I got all that productive stuff done earlier," Lee said, gesturing to the checked in books. "Spinning is my exercise for the day. Working important muscles."

Adah maintained her skeptical look toward him, this time with a tilt of her head. "Oh? And what muscles would those be?"

"The spinning muscles," he said, meeting her skepticism with a smirk. "Very important."

"I think I must have missed those in my medical books," Adah commented with a challenging lift of an eyebrow. "Unless these are modeling muscles? Ones they don't let us lowly doctor types in on?"

"Maybe I made them up," he said and grinned. "I'm good at making things up when I want to. What have you been up to this weekend?"

He knew the answer but he asked anyway.

Oh, he just made this much to easy for her, really, with a set-up like that. Grinning despite herself, Adah shrugged and cast a bored sort of glance around the room. "Oh, nothing much. Boring, really." She shook her head lightly. "You wouldn't want to hear about it."

"Actually, I think I would," he said, leaning an elbow on the desk and putting his chin in his hand. "In detail. I'm all ears."

Adah grinned a little more, almost wanting to hold it against the Eel for making her actually want to be coy, but realizing it was impossible. Then, shaking her head lightly, she wrinkled her nose and said to hell with such reservations about that sort of thing and said, "Nah, you wouldn't, trust me. Not when you could be spinning. It's about this...boy, y'see..."

She almost couldn't even hold it against him that the need to be coy seemed to bring out the accent she hated so much, but it just fit the attitude so dreadfully. The moment a Well, I do declare! slipped out of her, though, Adah was going to resolve to not speak for a whole week.

"But this boys sound so interesting," Lee said, eyes wide. "I mean, if he bored you that much, he has to have talent and skills like no other. Spinning takes a backseat to boy talk."

"Oh, well, yes," Adah said, nodding her head slowly as a wide grin started to develop, "he certainly has talent, I can't deny that..."

"Tell me of this talent," he said, nodding encouragingly.

"Well," Adah said, with a quirk of her eyebrow and a sideways glance to tell the Eel that this was her stealing a page right from his own book, "for starters, I guess I could say that he's quite talent at being talented. And that sort of talent certainly does take...talent."

Okay, maybe she went a little over the line of mockery there, but she was amused enough and that's what counted.

"How very...talented of him," Lee said, stroking his chin a little. "And cryptic. What's this guy's name? I should talk to him, get some tips."

I love 30 Rock.
