Investigator's Club, the Library -- NFB

After kicking out everyone who wasn't a library aide, a Librarian, or incipient club member, Parker hung a sign on the outside door:

INVESTIGATOR'S CLUB MEETING
PRIVATE

Then adjourned to the counter, where the brownies, drinks, cookies, and fudge were.

Hopefully, more than just Marty, Zero, Janet and the Souled Wonder were going to show.

Parker had glared at the crack about her ulcer, but now she was thinking. "Skills, I think. Science, magic, investigation? With any member working with and around any coordinator at any time, as we need different skills?" She took a look around the room, trying to come up with a list.

"Dr. House and Carter or Carson for science; Miss Calendar and anyone who wants to learn, I guess, for magic; Professor Tick and... hmm. Marty? For Investigation?" She shrugged. "Or whoever wants the jobs. I'd be happy to be Secretary or Clearing House or Notekeeper whatever, just as long as I don't have to be in charge of *another* thing."

"How about Veronica Mars?" Angel suggested. "She found me out and wasn't scared to report the truth. She might be good for helping to head the investigative side."

Parker nodded. "She wrote me that she'd be late-- we can ask her if she'd be interested then. Marty's a little burned out at the moment, I think. And hey, he or Alanna can be back-up, if Veronica's swamped. Plus I think she'd have a vested interest in keeping Turner from wreaking havoc."

"I'll play backup to Veronica's lead on investigations. She has more of a talent for it than I do."

"Some good divisions there," said Janet. "How about backups, at least on the student end--in case someone has a paper due, or gets sick."

Parker looked at her speculatively. "Would you like to work with Dr. House, on our weird science, with Carter? Time travel, exotic flus, alien predators, gremlins, yay?"

"Me?" Janet frowned. "Did you have to mention exotic flus? Oh, fine, I'm in. Just like you knew I would be, damn it."

"It's my fault you've investigated putting fingers on cats?" Parker smirked.

Hey, thumbs'd be useful. Of course, most cats, that's a scary thought.

"I can totally do science-y things," Bridge pipes up, "and I'm can be pretty stealthy, sometimes."

(ooc: w00t! now with investigatory!icon)

"You and Janet then, I guess, with Carter if she wants to be back-up. We don't have to make it a formal, elected position. This is so late in the term, we'll just say that you guys have those coordination positions from now on, unless someone else wants to volunteer. We'll probably get different 'specialists' depending on the crisis," Parker said, smiling. "And, uh. Yeah. Stealthy." She cocked an eyebrow at him, remembering the moon shoes of the night before.

"Coolness," Bridge grins. "Knew those Stealth classes would come in handy."

"You took Stealth classes?" John asks him. "Comes in handy, does it?"

"Oh yeah. They're pretty serious about that kinda stuff at the Academy," Bridge says solemnly.

Sam looked more than a little surprised and halted the brownie on the way to her mouth. "What? I don't think I'm the kind of scientist you're looking for here. I do math and ~~astro~~physics, remember?"

"Not that I won't help, of course, but do you really want me in charge?"

"My only thought is that Fraiser is so much more-- direct? Forceful?" Parker smirked. "That she might be a better candidate. And if you don't want to, you certainly don't have to. Back-up would be great."

Elizabeth snickered, then coughed, trying to hide it.

"You only think you're safe because you're in public," murmured Janet. "I know where you sleep."

Elizabeth looked at her innocently. "I didn't say anything," she whispered.

"You didn't need to," said Janet. "Or do you want me to ambush you in bed?" She snickered.

Elizabeth opened her mouth, her eyes glinting. "Yes? ~~I'm sure it would be fun.~~"

"Why am I not surprised to hear that," said Janet. ~~"A whole lot of fun. But what would Daniel say?"~~

"Because you know me so well?" Elizabeth asked, grinning. ~~"Well, as you said. You know where I sleep. And I know where you sleep. And I still have no idea!"~~

"No, I agree with you," Sam laughed, smirking at Janet. "She's much more forceful. I only know how to use a gun. Janet's glare is much more deadly."

"Either back up or rotating would be fine."

"Just for that, I'm going to glare at you," said Janet. Then she stuck her tongue out at Sam.
