The Library (12/21/2005)
Janet runs in, opens the library, and seems very distracted today.

Parker's there, looking half-asleep, but happy to be done with *everything*. She's looking through on-line catalogs for a late present for Broots, and ones for the bodyguards.
Angela turns up, scowling and lugging a heavy duffle bag.
"I have about an hour before I need to go to the airport," she says. "Thought I might as well spend it here."
"Oh, and I brought some candy for everyone."

Lee, of course, comes in and starts reading a Caprican novel that his mom sent in her last care package.
"Yum. Good thing Carter got me a sparring set for Christmas, I'll be able to work out more and not gain any weight from all the goodies this season." Parker smiled as she popped some lemon candy. "When do you get back?"
"Parker," Krycek greets her, wandering over with the two (http://pics.livejournal.com/krycek_rat/pic/0002cwzq/g17) packages (http://pics.livejournal.com/krycek_rat/pic/0002eys8/g17), which he sets down in front of her. "Glad I found you. And Merry Christmas - these are yours."

Krycek drops by the library with a couple of not-large boxes in his arms, seeming to be looking for someone in particular.
Spotting Parker, he heads over to talk to her (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomhigh/477517.html?thread=21839693#t21839693).

Blinking, Parker says, "Wow, hang on, let me get yours." She pokes around in her satchel, and comes up with this (http://www.whatonearthcatalog.com/whatonearth/T-Shirts_1AG/Wit-Humor_1EF/Item_I-Didnt-Do-It-Shirts_AT8271G_ps_cti-1EF.html) before ripping into her presents gleefully.
"Oooooooo!" She strokes the concealed-carry holster, enchanted, then opens the other and laughs. "Wonderful, a friend for Esme! Heh. Open yours. There's an IOU in there too."

"The 30th, I think?," Angela says tentatively. "It's just over a week."
"And yeah, I need to start running or something. New Year's resolution, right?"
"And yeah, I need to start running or something. New Year's resolution, right?"
"Good plan. I think sheer stress kept my weight down this semester, but if I'm going to eat healthy and avoid any ulcer complications, I'll need to do something else." Parker frowned. "Cam-Boy and some of the others used to go running pretty regularly. They might like the company."
Parker waves to him, and keeps talking to Angela for now.
"My diet plan was stress and avoiding the cafeteria," Angela admits. "I think I lived on, like, muffins from the Perk until November."
"I'll talk to them about running when I get back, I guess. "
She scrutinizes the books on the collections desk. "Anything you want me to reshelve? Kind of as my last official act of the semester, or something."

Lee waves back and begins to wonder when those damn shoes are going to arrive from his mother.
"If you really want to? Those three go in Special Collections, they're new," Parker said, pointing to them, "And those three just go back in the 400's. Are you doing anything fun over break? Aside from going home, I mean."
*Zero comes in, throws down her bag, and addresses whoever happens to be closest to her.*
Right. New flight; the cab'll pick me up at the causeway at nine o'clock tonight. An' if Professor Pierson doesn' show today, I guess I'll have to mallet him.
Now, does anyone have a list of people I need t'chase down about their books?

Angela eyes the new SC books warily. "The Philosphy Of Time Travel, by Roberta Sparrow," she reads aloud, "And two others for the same section. Seems pretty safe -- I'll do that after I put the 400s back."
She shrugs at Parker's question. "Not really. I'll probably go to the New Year's party Veronica Mars and Angel are putting together, and some of my friends want to hang out while I'm home. You?"

"Can't have enough comfortable, convenient holsters," he smirks pulling open the wrapping on his gift. He grins, holding it up to look at it a moment. "Ha! I like it. Thanks, Parker."
Krycek finds the slip in the packaging, then glances at Parker, arching an eyebrow quizzically. "When do you want to do this?"

"Bahamas while I'm gone, so I won't see any of my friends from home for long, probably. Back here before New Year's." Parker cocked her head. "Wings and Veronica are putting on a New Year's Party? Hmmm. Maybe I'll go to that, if it's not just them and a couple others. Although I heard there's a party in-town, too."
"Today, if it's open. When I get back from break, if it's not." She shrugged, studying Krycek. "I never got around to fulfilling that promise before, and you definitely deserve it. And a weapon off-campus is a good idea, considering how often you're out doing stuff."
[ooc: and I have to go do stuff in about half an hour... but I'll be back on later this evening, if we can track down Tex before then.]

Elizabeth headed in to return any books she might have had out still.
"Bahamas," Angela says jealously. "Sounds nice. I need to trravel with you someday, seriously."
"Angel and Vee both told me about it, so I think they want it to be big. I hadn't heard about the townie thing yet. Maybe we could hit both."
She drums her fingers against the books, noticing Zero has entered the library. "I'll take these to the shelves, then I should be out of here." A nostalgic look crosses her face. "I'll miss this place."

Rory came into the library in an uncommonly good mood.
"Hi!" she sang out to the other aides, keeping her tone hushed but gleeful nonetheless.

"It's not going to be the same without Dr. Pierson," Parker grumps. "I just hope the new guy isn't an idiot. Yeah, get that done, and then get gone."
"I'm not going to argue that," he shrugs. "Do you want to meet down there, if it is open? If not, we can just figure it out later. No rush, really."
[ooc: I hear that Tex hasn't actually opened the shop for a while due to plots, so we might want to hold off. But! at least we got this part done.]

"That sounds good. I go home early tomorrow, so if it's not open today, we'll go looking for it before New Year's." She grinned. "I didn't want to pick one out, because I know that shopping for a weapon is half the fun."
"Sounds like a plan," he said, grinning back. "And most definitely. I'm looking forward to it." Moving to leave, he threw her a last look. "If I don't see you before you leave, have a good holiday at home."
