Parker is hungover, unhappy, and really not glad to be back from break.

The Library is open.

Do not taunt the Library aide. This morning, she bites.

[ open for all your library needs ]

Angela grinned at the idea of Parker as a mom.

"It's so weird that Angel is your quasi-brother now. Considering."

Rory nodded, her expression going serious. "It's weird, since I never thought I'd be able to disassociate him, you know?"

Re: Third period

[chasingangela]

"Yeah. But he's so different than he was, that -- you have to dissociate."

"Physical appearance though - considering I still have nightmares about Angelus," Rory said quietly. "It's just strange to be so afraid of him, and then think of Angel as being someone who's protective of me."

"Cognitive dissonance," Angela shuddered. She brought a hand to her throat. "I quit wearing Phale's necklace. I don't know why, but I feel safe enough to take it off. Which I never thought I would, back in October."

"But I'm sorry you're still havingthose nightmares. Do you think you should go see the counselor, or anything?"

"Maybe," Rory said thoughtfully. "It's not often. And more about Darla and Drusilla these days."

She gave a wry smile and pulled her pink cross out of her shirt collar. "I don't take mine off anymore. And no, it's not blessed, but still. And it's not because of Angel, since I think he'd encourage this, anyway."

Re: Third period

[chasingangela]

"Probably," Angela agreed. Then, lowering her voice, "Is that the one someone gave you? Because that's another reason to wear it."

"Yes. And I assume by 'someone' we don't mean Logan, since he gave me one, too," Rory said, raising an eyebrow and smiling. "But yeah, someone gave me this one for Christmas and...yeah."

She sighed. "I don't know. I'm trying not to emo all over everything? But I miss him. A lot."

"I think Marty and I were all Color Me Emo about two nights apart when I went home," Angela said. "If I didn't know when he would be back, I probably wouldn't leave my room."

"So it's okay to be kind of emo, I guess."

Re: Third period

"Yeah," Rory nodded. "I mean, I think this is kind of a valid reason. But I'm trying not to think about it too much. He's coming back, anyway."

Re: Third period

[chasingangela]

A hopeful expression crossed Angela's face. "Did you hear from him?"

Re: Third period

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"No," Rory said, her smile fading. "But he said he is. In the letter he left."

Re: Third period

[chasingangela]

"Oh," Angela said, feeling terrible.

"Then he is. It's got to be part of the whole Jedi thing, not lying."

Re: Third period

"He certainly doesn't lie well," Rory replied. "But I don't think he'd say he's coming back if he wasn't almost completely positive he could follow through."
