The Library (Thursday)

[swerval_zero]

Around ten, Zero comes by the library and, realizing it's still locked down, sets about opening it up. The first person to enter will find that half of the lights are still off and a very pissed-off pink cat is sitting on the Circulations Desk.

"Heh. And Cats. *With* the dance routines!" Parker growls. "I don't know what his old school was thinking, letting him have stuff that could turn people into...." She blinks. "Then again, maybe I do know what they were thinking."

Angela squints at Parker. "He's a weapon," she says softly. "Is that it?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Or a victim." Parker shakes her head slowly. "Either someone wanted him to create random chaos, or they wanted him out of the picture. I can't believe any sane organization would give someone our age *those* books to tote around." She looks thoughtful. "I wonder which it is?"

[chasingangela]

"I guess he could be both," Angela says, clearly discomfited by the thought. "I mean, maybe he was set up, and they don't really care what happens to him."

She fiddles absently with a piece of hair. "But then, that almost makes me feel sorry for the guy."

"Yeah. Can't have that." Parker grimaces. "There's no way he'd listen if I brought it up. Stuck-up pompous...." She sighs. "Well. They're out of his hands for now. Maybe someone can ask him later why his last school thought this project was a good idea."

"Cats is good," Elizabeth nods. "It has a sort of poetic justice to it. Avenue Q has some great songs too."

She shakes her head. "God knows what his old school must have been like."

"I don't want to see him singing The Internet is for Porn. No way. But I'll be he does a mean There is LIfe Outside Your Apartment."

"I'd like to think it's all an accident," Parker says dubiously. "But at the very least, if they knew what those books were? Nearly criminal negligence. He's such a twit, they had to know he might screw up taking care of those books."

Elizabeth laughs. "No, The Internet is for Porn would be disturbing, I agree." She pauses. "Life Outside Your Apartment, yes. What Do You Do With a B.A. in English? could also be quite amusing."

She sighs. "I wouldn't trust him with a blueberry scone copy of Winnie the Pooh," she says.

"Not to mention appropriate. He really does have clueless Lib Arts major scrawled all over him in Crayon." Parker grimaced. "Well, he's Dr. Pierson's problem now. And ours to torment if he crosses us. I expect he'll just avoid the hell out of us once he gets his library card."

"He does," Elizabeth nodded, before laughing. "I can see him ending up as a librarian himself."

What about "Everyone Else Has Had More Sex Than Me"?

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Way, way too appopriate. *Definitely* on the list."

I'll make him a lyrics booklet.
