Library, 1/09

[chasingangela]

Angela isn't sure whether she's more frightened by the fact this is her first time opening the library, by the new students, or by the Librarian.

Her stomach is a mass of butterflies as she turns on the lights and takes a place behind the checkout desk, braced for the onslaught.

[OOC Note: You do need a card to use the library. Might as well take care of it today. OCD threads are here.]

Angela gives Marty a look that is incredibly full of sympathy and reaches out to squeeze his hand, then turns to the Librarian. "Sir? Could he make it up to you, somehow? Please?"

Marty does his best to look pitiful.

Really he is kind of pitiful, but we don't need to go into that here.

Marty sees the look on Parker's face and snaps at her. "Oh like you did anything!"

Imitates Parker: "What's that? Friend of mine in trouble? Gosh I better fly off to the bahamas to be with my daddy!"

"Some friend you are," Marty mutters.

Parker folds her arms and grimaces. Marty's not entirely wrong, after all. Then she shrugs. "Did I say anything? I didn't say anything." She looks at Angela. "Sorry I couldn't be more help, Angela."

The Librarian looks at Angela and then at Marty, considering this carefully.

"Oook."

If possible, it seems the Librarian just sighed. It is possible, however unlikely, that the orangutan has a heart. He certainly did not, however, squeeze Angela's hand comfortingly. Must have been the imagination.

He then shuffles around the desk, removing a calendar. He taps a large, orange finger on the upcoming Saturday.

"Oook. Oook oook."

He then points at the clock, inidcating that Marty had better be on time.

"Oook!"

Marty looks at the calender and then the Librarian.

"Saturday? Here?"

*gulps*

"I'm not going in *there* am I?" Marty asks nodding to Special Collections.

The Librarian just grins, baring his teeth.

Marty shivers for a second.

"Great. Saturday. I'll be here."

Marty's tone is anything but excited.

Re: Other library business

Marty feels slightly vindicated and guilty at snapping at Parker at the same time.

Not too much though.

Angela shakes her heads, looking warily from Marty to the Librarian to Parker. "You had plans, nobody knew what to do -- I can't hold it against anyone. It was just my stupid luck that it wasn't one of those Gremlin things that wears off in 12 hours."

"Wish it had been." Parker shrugs, kind of amazed that the Librarian communicates so well when he's not speaking anything like English.

And she is not rolling her eyes at Marty. Not where he can see it anyway.
