Methos is sitting at the circulation desk reading a stack of printouts. When someone approaches him, he casually closes the folder and places a book atop it. He's relaxed and calm.

John doesn't want to believe her but he does. He digs out his wallet and fishes out two ten dollar bills. He holds them out to her.

"I keep my word," he says.

Some of the sulkiness dissipates as she takes the bills. "And I shall tell anyone who asks that you're a man of honor, Crichton," she says, waving them in front of her face with glee. "Want to bet on my upcoming week? Double or nothing?"

"What would the bet be?" John slides his hands into his pockets. "And did you ever find out who sent that cactus thing?"

"Well, I *was* going to just say another $20 for another week to prove I can keep on not-smoking... But we could always make it more interesting...." Parker's pout returns for a moment. "And no, I didn't. It came through Jack's Roses, and was anonymous, since it wasn't a threat. Cash. Grrrrr."

"You have any ideas on how to liven the bet up?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Ooooooo." Parker has to think about this, it has to be good. "I quit smoking *and* drinking for a week, and you, hmmm." She tilts her head back, seeking inspiration. "Hee. I've got it. On Halloween? You let me pick out your costume. If I can't do it? You get the same deal."

John is secretly nervous about what she would pick for him but he's also excited about what he'd pick for her. "Deal," he says and holds his hand out to shake on it.

"Deal," she repeats, then grins. "Aeryn is gonna *thank* me, oh yes she is...."

"No full frontal nudity!" John shrieks at the last minute.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Awwwww," Parker mock-pouts, then smirks. "Same goes. And no toplesness. And I'll promise not to get you butt-less chaps. Fair enough?"

John nods, relieved. "Okay, good. Because I am not wearing anything that shows off the boys. They're very private."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"I can work with what's visible. Trust me." Parker grins. "And, uh. Thanks," she mutters. "This is the kind of thing that keeps me motivated. You know?"
