Library is open - 10/20

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

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.

Janet comes in, puts her bookbag behind the desk, and sits down to check books back in.

Janet, when you have a moment, I'd like to talk with you.

John quietly enters the library, looking for books on relationship advice otters.

"It's illegal to swing an otter in Canada. The law used to be it was illegal to swing a live otter, but they changed it after a student was injured."

[Sorry, having an Obscure!Fandom!Moment.]

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John nods and tries not to let his confusion show. "Uh, right. No otter swinging in Canada. I think I can manage that. Uh, can you swing a platypus in Canada?"

[Heh, no worries. Made me laugh.]

[janet_fraiser]

"Whenever," she said, sighing. "Your office, right?"

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

"Yes, please." When the door was shut behind them, he turned to face her. "I wanted to apologize to you."

Thank god this frakking place is open today Lee breathes a sigh of relief that he can study in the library today. He pulls out more emopoetry by Earth authors and studies.

"Apologize?" she asked. Didn't expect that. "For what?"

Methos scrubs his hands over his face. "For being an idiot. For not taking you seriously. If nothing else, it was a remarkably stupid thing to do to make it clear to anyone else that there was a note with your name on it banning them. I just... don't take the possibility of danger from the students very seriously."

"Hey, John," says Janet, giving Methos an amused look. "The section on animals is about five cases down, three rows in. I think. Relationship advice is in with psychology."

Janet waves at Lee and his biceps.

Lee waves back in his, omg, sleeveless shirt and wonders why Janet is smiling so widely at him.

[janet_fraiser]

"Nobody takes me seriously these days," says Janet irritably, dropping into a chair and slouching back. "It's the bane of my existence. I hate being a teenager."

"It's too late now," says Janet. "Hopefully the Big Bad Wolf doesn't have me in his sights. I left home without my cape and basket today." She takes a sip of her coffee and frowns. "Someone invited him into our dorm room. Gotta do something about that."

Janet gave him an appraising look. "Why on Earth wouldn't you take the possibility of danger from students seriously? You know, after the zombie incursion, I'd think everyone would have reevaluated everyone else by now." She shrugs. "I shouldn't really complain, considering."

[janet_fraiser]

Janet notices the way Lee's biceps ripple as he waves and smiles even more widely.

"Zombies... are one thing. But... let me put it this way. I'm used to being at the top of my own personal food pyramid. Which isn't to say I'm perfectly invulnerable. I learned to see you... the students as *capable*. Based on the research Parker dug up, I'm having to reevaluate that some of them are capable and dangerous."

[swerval_zero]

Good mornin', Professor. I don' wanna be a bother, but...that book?

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

"I'm sorry, Zero. Which book?"

[swerval_zero]

The Abattoir thingy. In Sanskrit. For the vampire puppy? 'Cause I've got the puppy part covered now, I just have to get the swoo on this whole 'undead' thing.

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

"The Abarat. Right. Sorry, as usual there's been too much going on. I've got it in my briefcase." *ducks back into office to grab it*

"Here you go. Let me know if anything seems... unclear."

Parker comes in looking sulky and malevolent, but she still brings coffee for Dr. Pierson.

Without speaking to anyone, she begins shelving the 200's.

[swerval_zero]

Thanks. I'll be over here if anybody needs me for anythin'. *goes to set up camp at one of the tables and pore over the Abarat*

Rory stay out omg

[swerval_zero]

*waves Parker over* Hey, come look at this.
