Parker is in no kinda mood. Today is her day off. Feel free to ask for help but don't push it.

"Perfect. Weirdly bloodthirsty, but perfect. I'll stay here and contemplate more ways to kill vampires. You sure you're okay in there alone?"

"Pretty sure. I still have the pass from Professor Tick, and it's been bizarrely quiet lately. I'll take my phone though, in case I need help." Parker fished out her cell, grabbed a set of dragonhide gloves, and saluted Angela. "I'll send a telegram if I end up in Shangri-La."

"Sounds good. And yeah, it's been almost too quiet," Angela says with a shake of her head. "See you later, Parker."

Parker went back into the stacks a lot more worried than she'd let on. Dru and Darla's little rampage meant that keeping Angel on their side was more important than ever.

Checking her map, she strode off toward the back of the purple section....

And after half an hour, Special Collections finally let her get there. "Grrr."

Taking out two books, she trekked back to the front of the study area.

Soul Removal for the Initiated. And Orthographie du Charme.

There. That ought to be a place to start.

An hour later, she came back out, looking disturbed and unhappy.

"Well, that was utterly depressing." She glared back at Special Collections, and removed her gloves.

"Hey. Are you seeing anyone, now that you and Marty are quits? I mean, do you have someone in mind, or are you just hanging out?"

"Hanging out. I was too depressed to date for a long time. Plus, there's a shortage of unattached guys." She tilts her head at Parker. "Do you have someone in mind?"

"Yes. He's harmless, and fairly nice, and I guess cute, maybe. I'm about to owe him a favor." Parker looks like she's trying not to wince.

Angela gives Parker a suspicious look. "So this harmless, nice, cute person you owe a favor -- is he, you know, human?"

"Yes!" Parker looked offended, then sighed. "It's Broots, okay? Considering I'm about to traumatize him, I was going to offer him dinner or something, but god knows, not with me. You don't have to. I just thought it might be... nice." Parker's experience with nice being limited, she's not sure if she'd on-target or not.

"Broots?" Angela says, then considers. He does seem harmless. And fairly nice, as far as she knows.

And she can pump him for information on Parker or Jarod.

"I'm in if he wants to go. One date, okay?"

"That's all I'm saying. Thanks, Angela." Parker smiles in relief. "I just couldn't think of anything else. He *has* every microprocessor built, and he doesn't get out much. Who knows, it might fun." Well, not fun for her. But fun for other people. Maybe?

"Maybe," Angela says, looking decidedly skeptical. "You can give him my number, or whatever. Even if there are, like, no sparks, it's a night out, right?"

"Nicest place on the Island, paid for by me," Parker promised. "And I'll let him know you're available, and bored. Thanks."
