The Library is Open (01/30)

Rory's sitting behind the desk, tapping a pen against it and obviously deep in thought.

She's here for all your library aide needs, however.

"Hey, Angela." Parker leaned against the counter and yawned again. "I think Alanna healing my ankle has made me extra-tired too. Thank god I only have Studio Art on Friday. We can probably finish up early, if we rush the assignment." She grinned. "Although not if it means getting Adama and Harris's shirts off again."

"Best. Assignment. Ever," Angela says with a blush. "And I have math, government, music, and art. Unfortunately. Wish I could just ditch them."

Parker waved a hand. "Seriously, the study group won't be getting together until after seventh, at the earliest. Although I get how distracting classes could be when you've got a... study group." Her lips twitched as she rolled her eyes at herself. "Hey, I talked to Marty."

Rory glanced up.

"Oh? And Ange, I think if you, me and Xander can get out of H of A early, it might be good, since our group's doing the...um, prep work, and all."

"Good idea," Angela agrees absently.

She shoots a quizzical look at Parker. "I just emailed Rory about Marty. He has experience with the subject, y'know. What did he say?"

"Ummm..." Parker had thought Angela heard that Marty was going to take on Bel; but maybe she'd been too busy with the support stuff. Marty's request that she not tell Angela ringing in her ears, she hedged. "He's going to help out. He's got some ideas on the weapons, but we're not sure what team he'll join yet."

Angela had, in fact, been a little overwhelmed by the support staff; she had caught Marty's name, but that was all.

She bites her lower lip. "He wants to fight, doesn't he? Will he at least stay away from Drusilla?"

"That, I think we can guarantee," Parker said. "The teams have at least five people each, so I really don't think he'll get close to her." She studied Angela. "Anakin's going, Angel, Molly-- lots of heavy hitters. It'll be okay."

"I still can't get over the idea of Molly as a heavy hitter. She's so little," Angela says. "But -- okay. Keep him away from Squid Lady, let him shoot at stuff, he'll be fine. I hope." She makes a mental note to check up on this with him after Sociology, then winces, looking at Parker.

"You'll be careful too, right?"

Parker grinned, amused. "Oh, hell yeah. My goal is to not get hurt at all during this caper, and see Squid Lady evaporate into dust. For preference. I'll take watching Darla burn up like flashpaper. Seriously, I'm on Aeryn's team, Echolls won't be there to fight with, it'll all be good."

"Take pictures," Rory murmured, distracted by something on her laptop screen.

"Definitely." Parker cocked her head. "Anything I need to know about?"

"Hmm?" Rory glanced up. "I'm looking up maps of the town for you guys. I figure you'll each need one small enough to fold up and shove in a pocket or something."

"Perfect. The last thing we want is to stop and ask for directions." Parker smiled. "Thanks for helping with this, guys. I know some people would want to stamp off and sulk if they weren't on the main teams. Not having to worry about the extras means a lot."

Rory shrugged her good shoulder. "Well, you know I wish you'd let me go. But taking care of all this stuff for you guys is fine by me. I just don't want to be stuck at home with nothing to do and unsure what's going on out there."

"With the radios that we're getting, and you guys on the line, you'll hear everything as it happens. And probably have a better idea of where we should go at certain points. Not to mention covering for us."

"Exactly. We're still going to worry, though."

She glanced around the library.

"Because studying too hard is bad for your health, you know."

Parker looked around, then rolled her eyes at herself. "Yeah, it definitely is, especially if you have to do any kind of field trip. Or snack break run."

"People are clumsy and fall down," Rory said casually, looking back at her screen. "How detailed do we want these maps, by the way?"

"If they could show every building, and which ones are abandoned and which ones aren't? That would be great. It would save us a lot of time."

Rory nodded. "Can do. I think we can get blank maps and then one of us can go through and mark what's abandoned and what's not, and add notes you all might need before Xeroxing it off."

"That'll work fine. I'm checking on the 'other' maps later today. I'll get them to you guys as soon as I have them."

"Okay. I'm still going to worry about the people who don't have superpowers. And if you do see them dust? I want pictures, dammit."

"Pictures, video, audio," Parker promised. "The next best thing to being there."
