The Library is Open (02/09)

Rory toddled sleepily into the library after ACJ, and took her usual position behind the desk.

Library's open. It has books. Go read or something.

"What didn't? He brought flowers I was allergic to, I tripped and twisted my ankle, he knocked over a candle and lit my purse on fire, we both got tomato sauce all over our shirts..." Angela lets her voice trail off. "I mean, he was nice. But still. No sparks, y'know?"

"Eek," Rory said, wincing. "That's almost like a sitcom or something."

She sighed and ran a hand over her hair. "No sparks, huh? Is there anyone here who you are interested in?"

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

Angela paused for a moment. "Not really," she admitted. "I mean, Blair Sandburg is kind of sweet, but he'd be too bouncy for long-term. Plus, I'm still kind of hung up on Marty. So maybe I wouldn't have felt sparks with anybody."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

Rory nodded. "Yeah, Blair's a sweetheart, but I don't think I can picture him with you. And yeah, maybe you just need time to deal more with the whole Marty thing. Doesn't mean anything's wrong or anything."

"I think you're right," Angela sighed. Tilting her head to one side, she added, "Did you see Marty in ACJ this morning? It keeps saying he's acting strange on the radio, but he was fine, when I talked to him Tuesday. Really low-key, by his standards."

"Yeah, I heard he's been weird. Like, he told my mom to go to a doctor, which is just bizarre and not Martyish," Rory mused. "He was fine in ACJ though. Eating an omelette and looking like himself."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

Angela scrunched her brow. "An actual omelet, or egg whites?"

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Egg whites. I didn't get a good look, but I'm pretty sure that's what I saw," Rory shrugged.

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

"Huh," Angela says, tossing it aside. "Whatever, Marty's weird, film at eleven."

"Oh, I talked to Jack Harkness at the Perk this morning. Sounds like his birthday party's going to be either awesome or really scary over-the-top. Possibly both."

"Huh, isn't Professor Cregg in charge of it?" Rory asked lazily. "She's good with over-the-topness."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

"That's what he said," Angela agreed. "Didn't she do a whole Renn Fest thing for her birthday back in the fall?"

Re: Second Period (2/9)

"Yeah, I think so?" Rory guessed. "I think that was when I was stuck in bed. But Callynanders brought me stuff from it."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

"Yeah, I didn't get to go either," Angela replied quietly. "I think I spent about half that weekend in the clinic with you guys."

"But I heard it was huge."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory nodded. "Lucky Jack. Are you going to go?"

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

"Probably? Unless something comes up between now and Monday. I like Jack, and I kind of want to see the hotel anyhow."

"What about you?"

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Probably," Rory nodded. "I'm not sure yet. Day before Valentine's Day, right? And that's something else I need to figure out."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

"Oh, right," Angela said a little vaguely. "Because ... yes. That would be complicated."

""Do they have Valentine's Day on other planets," she asked innocuously.

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"They might?" Rory guessed. "But not on some planets where some people are from. But you know how folks around here are nice and informative."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

"And sometimes their information is even right," Angela agreed, remembering the Christmas pageant.

"So ... do you think you might have plans?"

Re: Second Period (2/9)

"No idea. I mean, blah blah hypothetical, blah blah - I said it wasn't a big deal like twenty times," Rory shrugged. "But you know how he is. In theory, et cetera."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

"Right. In theory, blah blah blah, some guys want to make a big deal out of it. And, yeah, he would probably be the type. Hypothetically."

She tilted her head to one side. "Do you think you can keep the hypothetical thing up until May?"

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory shrugged. "I don't know. I mean, we can totally try, anyway. And right now it's the only thing we can do. If we find a way to, um, not be hypothetical? Totally taking it. But we've got nothing now."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

Angela coughed and did not say anything, because the only thing she would have to say would be pointing out that the people who cared were in a galaxy far, far, away not exactly around.

"Mmm," she finally uttered. "Maybe something will come up."

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Maybe," Rory said with a slight smile. "Anyway. No V-Day plans that I know of. What about you? Another date?"

Re: Second Period (2/9)

[chasingangela]

Angela looked ill at this. "No. No, no, no, no."

"I'll probably be AFK hiding in my dorm room, testing the human tolerance for Haagen-Dazs."
