Janet unlocks the door, sits down behind the Collections Desk, and starts entering books.

"Neat," says Janet, coming out from behind the desk and from an hour and a half of training IRL. "So how's he not burning your hand?"

"I have no earthly idea." Methos bends his head and examines the creature curled up lazily on his palm. It's glowing with heat, and little bitty red flames curl around its toes. "It makes no sense."

((The image of that in my head is so very cute.))

"It's so cute," says Janet, peering at the salamander. "I think we need a mascot. But what does it eat?" She goes back to the Collections Desk to look up salamanders, or magical creatures, or something useful. "And will it grow any bigger?"

"I have no idea what it eats. It didn't seem to be chewing on paper, just singeing it. As for size... he looks fully-grown for a normal salamander... but, not normal here."

"Normal salamanders don't catch on fire," said Janet. "Also, what's this one's native environment?"

"Unless...." Parker had just walked in, and was listening. "Uh. We never did find Professor Gandalf. Did we?"

[janet_fraiser]

"The implication is that this is Professor Gandalf," said Janet. "Weird, huh?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Extremely." Parker shakes her head. "I hope he's okay with being a pet..."

[janet_fraiser]

"We could let him out, but what would he do?" asked Janet. "Terrorize the ducks?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Not the ducks we've got around here, he wouldn't. I swear I saw one smoking a cigarette." Parker sighs. "Mmmm. Cigarettes."

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

"No cigarettes for you," Methos says automatically. "Even if little Sally Mander here is the best cigarette lighter in existance. And I don't know. I think she's a little too... red to be Professor Gandalf. Maybe she ate him?"
