The Library Is Open (12/05/05)

[janet_fraiser]

Janet unlocks the library and flips on the lights.

Sitting on the Collections Desk is a package addressed to "Adam Pierson." The envelope is embossed with an unusual symbol, the meaning of which Janet didn't know. Except she did, because she steamed open the last envelope that came with that symbol on it. But she couldn't do that to this package without getting caught. And that was really starting to bug her.

She moved the package behind the Collections Desk and glared at it until the first library patron showed up.

"Liz is great with people. We actually went to the same school in Colorado, but I never really met her until we both transferred here. I'm pretty lucky to room with her."

"You do need to hang out with us more. We went for coffee at the start of the semester, but that was all about Paige and one of her boytoys. You know, you can stop by our room any time. We usually have junk food around--and I keep sandwich stuff around too, because I'm not touching the cafeteria with a ten foot pole."

"You avouid the cafeteria too? Marty kept going in there and having weird stuff happen. I think the ABBA-singing finally weaned him. I kind of live off muffins from the Perk and whatever I can scrounge," Angela admits. "So a new scrounging site is absoutely cool. I'll stop by your room sometime."

"Cool," said Janet. "So how are you liking the library assistant job?"

"It's busier here than I expected," Angela says, scratching her nose thoughtfully. "And I really like being here. I'm just not really sure what my job is yet, y'know? I guess I'll work it out while we go."

"And you've captured the essence of our jobs," said Janet, snickering. "You know how I got the job? I saw our so-called Fearless Leader sneaking away from the crowds on the second day of school, so I came in, stood on the Collections Desk, and shouted everyone into order."

Janet snickered. "It was pretty fun."

"That's awesome," Angela says. "I would never have managed that." She thinks. "Y'know, for ethics class, we're supposed to, like, change patterns we don't like in our behavior. Maybe I should try to be more .... forceful, or something."

"Being forceful can be fun," said Janet who didn't get this yesterday, damn it.
