Library is Open -- 11/7

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

The librarian is in an exceedingly good mood today, even if he's currently trundling books that still need to be shelved after the Quickening the freak lightning storm that hit the library a week and a half past. Even more surprising, his mood does not seem to be dependant on caffeine, as there is no mug on the Collections Desk since Janet someone broke it.

[Methos at some point disappeared back into the stacks. He's easily fetchable, and will likely reappear momentarily.]

[Finding a reference to a law that isn't in front of her, she gets up and wanders into the stacks looking for the right call number.]

[Methos looks up from shelving books, and sees her.] Good morning, Professor. How are you feeling? [The prosaic words are belied by the smile spliting his face.]

Parker is now blinking at *this*.

Buh?

I'm feeling fine, Dr. Pierson. [She doesn't look at him, but a smile spreads across her lips.] You're cheerful today.

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

[Affects looking hurt.] I'm always cheerful. Is there anything I can... do for you?

[Is suddenly serious] I'm researching laws so I can convince Bristow to let my girl into school as a full student for credit. So far, nothing I've found has convinced him because our little school here is so...unique.

[She turns to face him] I'm kind of at a loss. I've just about exhausted my options.

Right. This is Shane? What is it about her situation that needs special handling?

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Not really anything special, except enrollment is closed for the term, and I'm trying to convince Bristow to let her in now...before the new enrollment. and he's being stubborn...and I'm being tenacious. I want this Ad--Dr. Pierson. I tend to get what I want.

[drops his voice to a murmur] I've noticed. [normal tone] So you want a precident for allowing in a student outside of normal enrollment. Have you or any other professors been tutoring her? You could claim that represents a de facto enrollment, and it would be detrimental to her schooling to deny her credit for her work.

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

She's been working with Ten, I know she's been working on quantum theory independently. Also, she's auditing Tara's Ethics course, so de facto student may be the way to go. And i think she and Geoff..Professor Chaucer may have talked Literature. they are really good friends. [She looks up and down the stacks and then takes a step toward him and murmurs--] You noticed that, hmm?

[raises one arm to rest on the bookshelf in a deceptively casual gesture that is almost -- but not quite -- an embrace, and whispers back] Rather difficult to miss. I'd have to be exceedingly unobservant. And I rather think I share that trait.

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

[Her voice barely above a whisper, looking into his eyes.] I know you do. I missed you yesterday.

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

[He smiles at her, this one quite a bit softer than the delighted grin he's been wearing all day.] I'm glad. I missed you to, but I thought that a bit of space would be... useful. We weren't really looking where we lept Saturday night... any of us.

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

[She presses against him and whispers in his ear.] I knew exactly what I was jumping into, Adam. I want you both. All the time. Can you share?

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

To say yes would be misleadingly disingenuous. I can share... and I'm quite delighted at the thought of being shared as well. Unless that... bothers you.

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

[She smiles softly] Not in the least. I've known for a while...if this happened, that's how it would be. As long as..you're ok with it. Sharing. Which you are, I know. So is Ten. [Her hands slide around his waist, and she smiles] So we've all got the basic elementary school skills down, except for coloring within the lines. I've never been very good at that.

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

[He brings his hands up to cup her face, thumbs running down her neck, refelxively probing for sore muscles to soothe.] Shares, plays well with others. Coloring within the lines is for those with no imagination. Did you paint the sky lavendar and orange instead of blue, as well?

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

I did..and I called it a sunset. I always thought it was lovely...I enjoy lovely things. [Looking into his eyes, she leans a fraction closer to him, her head tipped slightly to the side.]

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

I do as well. And brilliant and beautiful. Ms. Cregg, are you trying to seduce me in my library?

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

I didn't count on having to try Mr. Pierson. Would you like me to put some effort into it?

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

If you put any effort into it at all, I'll be completely incoherent. I'm near enough to that now. [He leans closer, their lips a breath apart.]

Re: After her office hour IN THE STACKS (Now NFB, OMG)

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

I imagine I could put just a little more effort into it. [She closes the distance, kissing him softly.]

*Parker has her hands over her ears*

*She doesn't want to know.*

*Really.*
