The Library Is Open (11-28-05)

Janet unlocks the doors of the library, flips on the lights, and gets to work behind the Collections Desk.

"Finally, yeah," she smiled back. "The walls are looking a little naked, though--they need some whiteboards. And lots and lots of equations."

"So...is idiot boy back from Cairo yet?"

"Sure...he's gone to Egypt on a dig. We'll be lucky if he comes back at all, let alone in one piece." Sam drummed her fingers on the desk. "I knew he'd been missing doing actual archeology, but I don't think I was aware of how much he'd missed it, you know?"

"Soon, I hope." She practically bounced with excitement. "I've got some rolls of whiteboard stuff (http://www.whiteboardsetc.com/peelandstickskins.htm) coming, then I just have to stick it to the walls and I'll be set."

From his vantage point in the Library, Marty watches Janet and Sam carefully for any inbred strange behavior.

Marty returns to his books and starts making detailed notes regarding apples, white boards and "idiot boy"

The hairs on the back of Sam's neck rose as she felt someone watching her. She turned around, only to see Marty studying at his table. She shrugged and returned to her conversation with Janet.

"That would be nice. For you, I mean." Sam bit the inside of her cheek to stop the grin. "Maybe he'll even leave you a note to let you know he's back."

Janet hadn't ranted about this yet--it would be better if she got it out before she saw Daniel, but boy did he owe her.

"Should be cool. I even have permission from student affairs, as long as I peel the stuff off when I'm done."

"He waited as long as he could where?" Sam shook her head and began stood up on her tiptoes to stretch out her calf muscles. She was sore enough from moving to convince her that she needed to spend more time in the gym. "Daniel's a certified genius. He couldn't possibly be that much of an idiot, could he?"

"That's...so unlike them," Sam grinned. "But I like to have my permissions ahead of time--saves everyone aggravation in the long run."

"He relied on Jack to give you a message?" Sam stopped moving and stood still, more in shock than anything else. "He's obviously killed some necessary brain cells somewhere along the line."

"I didn't get it in triplicate," Sam muttered. "Although I did bookmark the link."

Sam snorted. "Yeah, because that's so much more effective. He's lucky it was your desk, that's all I'm saying. Otherwise you still wouldn't have found it."

"Yeah, Jack was all kinds of bored when I saw him sometime after that, which I guess isn't any more unusual than normal."

She leaned over to poke Janet. "Oh, shut up. Like you'd know a slacker if you lived with one."
