The Library (11/8/05)

Janet opens up the library and quietly sips her coffee as she works.

Methos beams at her. "Yes, thank you." He takes one and turns it over. "I suppose I should ask how good you are at baking. Is this likely to kill me?"

[janet_fraiser]

"I highly doubt a cookie is going to take your head off."

Janet snickers. "Are you insulting my talents?" she asks. "Just for that, I don't think I'm going to tell you. Come on, be brave. Take some risk. Eat my cookie."

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

"I live to take risks." He bites into the cookie. "Okay, I sincerely apologize for questioning your skill. Apparently there are no end to your talents. This is *good*."

Janet laughs. "I'm apparently an overachiever," she says. "When I'm motivated, at least."

I've been snackin' on 'em for three days now an' I'm still here.

Yes... but you jump into interdimentional lockers and sign contracts in blood. I don't know if your judgement is one I'd live my life by.

[swerval_zero]

I didn' mean to sign the contract in blood!

Parker rolls her eyes. "It's safer than 97% of the cafeteria food. That's all the guarantee you get. Plus, they're yummy enough to be worth it if you *do* end up singing."

"Thank you, Parker, Zero," said Janet triumphantly.

"See?" she said to Methos. "I'll even give you extra to take to your sweethearts if you decide you like them."

Methos chokes on the cookie. "I beg your pardon? What did you say?"

Parker is humming and looking at the ceiling now. Yup. Nice ceiling.

Janet gives Methos a wide-eyed, innocent look. "What? It's not like they're here to see the rest of us."

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

"I'm quite certain. If, of course, I knew who you were speaking of at all. All sorts of people come in and out of the library on a daily basis." Methos' offended tone would be ever so much more effective if he wasn't still somewhat giddy.

[swerval_zero]

*looks cute and innocent* Of course, Professor. We believe you.

Parker snorts. "Suuuuure we do." Then she holds up her hands. "And if you want to kiss any of those other people in the stacks? That's just fine. Send up a flare if you get lost in there."

[swerval_zero]

Just, y'know, hypothetically. Of course.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Theoretically. Uh-hunh."

[janet_fraiser]

"Right," said Janet. "Sure. Try that one again, only a little more convincingly?"

Parker chokes on her cookie, and shoots Janet a wide-eyed look.
