Library is OPEN - 10/26

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

Methos is engaged in a war with the never-ending pile of books to be cataloged. It looks like the books are winning.

Janet walks into the library, sits down behind the desk, and frowns at the books.

"Zero jumped into Locker 327 in the name of science. It's just you and me now."

"That's it. I'm moving to Tahiti. Want to come?"

[janet_fraiser]

"God, yes. But I think I may have to kidnap my boyfriend and bring him along." Janet eyes the books warily. "We see the professor without the library card come back out of Special Collections yet?"

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

"Boyfriend?" Methos grins at her. "Do I know this guy?"

"What? Old guy, long beard, kind of vague? No, I don't think so."

[janet_fraiser]

"Probably," says Janet, grinning back. "Given that he's on the staff. After a suitable period of allowing him to make up for being such an ass to me earlier, Daniel and I are once again an item."

"Damn." Janet eyes Special Collections suspiciously. "How'd he even get in there when the door was locked? I'll bet it was trying to lure him in there so he could be an example to other unwary souls."

On a short break from the Clinic stop laughing, that's not a joke Wilson found himself ferreting out the Library.

He'd been reading through Lucid Dreaming (http://www.lucidity.com/LucidDreamingFAQ2.html) the book given to him by Professor Dream and he'd found a few follow up texts he wanted to investigate.

Course, he was fairly certain that there was going to be some sort of procedure attatched to this so rather then just roam on into the stacks he walked up to the counter and looked to see if anyone who looked...librarery was about.

"Dr. Wilson," said Janet, nodding a greeting to him from behind a very tall stack of books that she was cataloging. "You need a library card to check that out. I don't recall you getting one yet." She pulled out an application form and a pen--with black ink--then put them on the counter.

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Wilson looked a little confused.

"I wasn't trying to check out a book? At least, not yet."

Had a book crawled up and jump on him? He actually checked because around here, it was all together possible, I mean, come on...floating robots???

[janet_fraiser]

Janet peered around the books again. "Oh, maybe you weren't carrying books around," she said. "Or maybe I'm hallucinating books from cataloging so many of the damned things."

"You might still want to apply for a library card, though. You never know when you'll want to check something out."



OOC: Oops!

John comes into the library, looking for something specific but something he knows nothing about.

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

"Can I help you?" Methos asked with the long-suffering air of one who knows there is no help to be had.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Um, yeah. I'm looking for books on the militaries of the world. Non fiction. With, uh, pictures, if there are books like that." John wonders if that sounded as stupid as he thinks it did.

[janet_fraiser]

"You and Lee both," says Janet. "He was in here a couple of days ago looking for information on women in the armed forces. Flexed quite nicely while he was here too."

Daniel pushes open the door to the library, carrying his notebook.

He looks around, apparently looking for someone.

[janet_fraiser]

Janet smiles from behind the pile of books and waves at Daniel.

[the-ascended.livejournal.com]

A smile spreads across Daniel's face, and he crosses the room to her.

"Hey there, beautiful."

[janet_fraiser]

"How were your classes?" asks Janet, her eyes lighting up as he got closer. "Did any students harass you too much?"

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[The Doctor comes in and leans on the desk, carrying a plastic bag in one hand. He smiles winningly at Janet.] Lo there, Ms Fraiser. Is M--Adam in?

[janet_fraiser]

"Hey, Doctor," she says. "Having a good day, I take it?" She glances around for Methos. "He was here just a minute ago. I think he's hiding in case Special Collections opens up and spits out the professor that went in without a library card."

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

"I was not hiding," Methos said loftily. "Just because I am not always here does not mean I am hiding."

He turns and nods to Ten the Doctor. "What's up?"

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[The Doctor turns, smile turning into a smirk.] Hello, Me--Adam. A bit cheeky this morning, I see. Looks like you haven't had enough coffee yet.

[janet_fraiser]

"Of course not," said Janet. "You'd never flee like a little girl from the evil terrors of the library hide. So sorry. My mistake."

Her tone, however, gives lie to her words.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Aye, you could say that. ...Someone went into Special Collections without a card? Probably the second most dangerous thing one could do around here, save go into Locker 327.

I was looking for him to talk about a book I asked about the other day. And I brought a bribe. Two, actually--one for the lovely assistant...
[He reaches in the bag and hands her a small box of four chocolate-covered strawberries (http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/477987/2/chocolate_covered_strawberries.jpg), smiling at her.]

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

You are suborning my minions! How... crafty of you.

[janet_fraiser]

"We've nicknamed him Professor Poor, Unfortunate Soul," says Janet. "Hopefully he won't get turned into a gerbil."

"Ooh, chocolate-covered strawberries," says Janet, smiling happily. "Thank you!" She takes the package and slips it into her backpack, wondering if she'll be able to hide them well enough to have them to herself. "It's so nice to see the library staff appreciated properly."
