Janet ignores the macho posturing and continues working.

*Glares at Janet for ignoring such manly posturing then goes back to glaring at Belthazor.*

*sits down with a couple books across the room from Marty and resumes glaring at him*

*Notices lack of Dr. Seuss. Smirks and then glares*

Angela notices the glarefest and elbows Janet. "I'm thinking Phoebe and I won't be setting up any double dates anytime soon," she says under her breath.

[janet_fraiser]

Janet snickers. "Too true," she whispers. "Do you think the testosterone is thick enough to choke on yet?"

[chasingangela]

Angela feigns a few delicate coughs. "Just a little," she says, rolling her eyes.

Intellectually, she knows she should be afraid of Belthazor, but she figures Phoebe will keep him in check. And, anyhow, she's enjoying not being on the Big Scary Demon's radar screen as far as she can tell.

[demonbelthazor]

By sheer coincidence and for dramatic effect, Belthazor chose that exact same moment to glance over toward where Angela is.

[chasingangela]

Angela pales and suddenly becomes very interested in her shoelaces. Her hands go to her necklace, though she doesn't think it would do anything against Belthazor.

Why can't I keep my mouth shut?, she thinks. Just ... why?

[janet_fraiser]

Janet gives Angela a curious look. "Something wrong?" she asks, in the same quiet tone of voice as before.

[chasingangela]

Angela turns so her back is to Belthazor, just in case he can read lips. She speaks very softly, and her tone is bitter. "He said something to Miss Maclay, something that scared her. She told me, and I told Phoebe, because ... I'd want to know if it was Marty, right? From the way he's looking at me and Marty? I guess Phoebe told him, and I'm seriously not sure how much I like that."

She scowls. "Why can't I stay away from demons? Why? It was so not an issue for me before I came to this school."

[demonbelthazor]

Belthazor returned his gaze to the book in front of him (with a brief pause to glare at Marty). He consulted his notes and smiled.

Marty looks over at Angela and then back to Belthazor and glares even harder.

With a scowl.

[demonbelthazor]

Belthazor gives Marty a "You got a problem?" look.

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty gives Belthazor a "I don't have a problem. What's your problem?" look.

[demonbelthazor]

Belthazor just smirked.

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty rolls his eyes.

[demonbelthazor]

Bel blows him a kiss.

"We're closing the library," says Janet.

[demonbelthazor]

Belthazor gathered up his notes, put his books back, and left the library.

[janet_fraiser]

"I'm not used to demons either," says Janet softly. She doesn't turn her back to Belthazor--it would make her a little too twitchy, thank you Jack O'Neill--but she does fold one arm across her chest and bring the other up so her hand is obscuring a portion of her mouth. "The library's just as free an area as study hall. On the other hand--" Janet's expression got mischevious for just an instant. "--if he ever tries to check something out, you'll witness the true hell a library assistant can subject someone to."

[chasingangela]

"Yeah," Angela says. Her eyes skitter back over to the Marty-and-Bel glarefest. "Um, I think I'm going to head out for now, anyhow. We can pick this up on Monday, right?"

[janet_fraiser]

"Sure," says Janet. "Monday works."
