Library, 02/07

[chasingangela]

Angela gets to the library early, and blearily wonders why there still isn't a coffeemaker around.

She props herself behind the counter, and looks through the books that need to be reshelved, hoping to find something she wants to read. Or maybe she's just looking at the pictures. It's early.

The library is now open for all your library-type needs.

"The idiocy Saturday night."

"Oh." Angela says. "Um ... I really don't want to lie to you, so ... yes."

She suspects this is not going to make Zero happy.

She would be correct in this.

"Oh. I see." Zero is definitely beginning to get the impression that everybody was in on this except her. She picks up a stack of books and says, "Excuse me," before vanishing into the stacks.

Angela looks after Zero, unsure what to do.

Finally, she gathers her courage and follows her. "Zero? Will you at least talk to me?" she calls into the stacks.

"No," Zero calls from somewhere unseen. Possibly the history section. "Why should I? No one talked to me." She doesn't sound bitter. In fact, she sounds weirdly calm. If Angela's smart she'll take this as a bad sign.

"Angel and Parker weren't running around recruiting people," Angela calls back, before giving up. She knows that really wouldn';t matter to her if she were in Zero's position.

"I'm at the desk if you do want to talk, ever."
