Library is Open, January 18

[swerval_zero]

Zero, still yawning, opens up the library. She tacks a sign on the door, which reads:

Winifred Burkle, please report to the library for your corrected library card.

Then she settles in behind the desk, mp3 sunglasses firmly in place to conceal that she is, in fact, napping. Come on in, folks. She'll be here allllll day.

"Hey. What's going on? Anything?" Parker was yawning but rested from Hell Day, as she tended to think of Tuesday.

Zero waved a hand out at the library in general. "People. Books. Ape. That Blair kid is bouncy."

"And he hasn't had caffiene." Parker watched Rubber Boy study for a moment, then said, "He's on Student Council now. I wonder if we could wire him up as an energy source for a back-up generator." She yawned. "We need to torment Dr. Pierson some more tomorrow. You ready?"

[swerval_zero]

"Oh, that's just not fair.

"For torment? Always." Zero grins at Parker. "It'll be fun."

Parker snickered, then frowned. "Watching a couple of the off-worlders and foreign students flail in there reminds me that Blair was mentioning a Help Study plan. Which might be easier to implement than tutoring. Would you be up for helping out our mor confused compadres in there?"

[swerval_zero]

"That's not a bad idea. I mean, I don't know that much about British history either, 'cept what Dad says. S'why I'm takin' the class. But I'm at least, you know. From Earth."

"Yeah, and who thought that would ever be an advantage?" Parker shook her head. "I'll let you know after the first meeting, but hopefully we can get it up and running before Lee and Vala stress themselves into flunking."

"Great. I'll help any way I can. I mean, I can at least explain who the Indians and the Vikings are..."

Parker grinned. "Would it make it worse or better, do you think, to show them something like the original Robin Hood or that last King Arthur film?"

[swerval_zero]

"The Disney Robin Hood? With the foxes? Sounds like a great idea to me. I don't know--Twitch made me watch that King Arthur movie with him, and I think the reincarnating horse-warriors thing might throw them.

"Of course, it also might be one hundred percent true. And, pretty boys."

"I was thinking of the Errol Flynn Robin Hood, but the animated one might be easier to follow," Parker said, snickering. "And yeah, very pretty boys in the King Arthur flick." She grinned evilly. "We can have whoever watches with us ask Dr. Pierson which parts are true. That's not a bad thing. Right?"

[swerval_zero]

"No!" Zero says, warming to this idea. "Hey, d'you think we could get Lee to ask him why the Romans wouldn't let Keira Knightley have sleeves?"

Parker chuckled. "With his arms, I'm sure he's worried about those of others. We could poke him a bit, tell him we're all wondering. Heeee."
