Library [07/12]

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

After Photography, Rory finished making sure all the copies of the newsletter were out and spamming the flist before opening the library.

As soon as she had the door propped open, she set her things down and went back out to drag the rather large fan she had brought with her.

Making sure it was on the oscillating function so nothing would blow away, she contentedly curled up behind the desk with her book.

[Open! No OCD! Summer yay!]

Comments

Rory looked up. "Angelaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!"

Yes, it had that many A's and two extra exclamation points. She had really missed her.

She hurried over to give her friend a hug. "I kept trying to run into you but I didn't but I saw Zero and my mom had the baby and oh em gee how are you?"

[chasingangela]

"I am good and I missed you and ohmygod a baby? Is your mom okay? Is he okay? And I saw Zero Saturday."

Yeah, Angela was happy too.

"He's fine and he's tiny and he's perfect and his name is Bucky and Mom is fine too and how was Paris?" Rory said excitedly.

[chasingangela]

"That is an adorable name and Paris was gorgeous and everyone there was watching soccer so the museums were almost empty and it was so, so, SO romatic, Rory. You shoudl take someone sometime if you can."

"Everyone was watching footy when we were in New York, which is also romantic, and so the Met barely had anyone there, and Bucky is short for William Starbucks Gilmore-Danes and Jakey bought stock for the a baby and oh my God you have to see him because he is so wee and cute."

She paused to breathe, and added, "The baby, not Jakey."

[chasingangela]

"Jakey's cute," Angela said. "Are he and Alex still travelling? And with a name like that, the baby is, so, so definitely related to you. Is your mom at their house on the mainland? When did she have the kid? How's Luke?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Bucky was born on the fourth of July," Rory said. "Like Tom Cruise in that movie! And Luke's great. Nervous, and driving Mom a little crazy. And yeah, they're at the house. And Jakey and Alex are visiting Logan and Angel soon, I think. Alex is still not eaten by sharks. It seems to be an important point to clarify."

[chasingangela]

"Awww," Angela beamed. "Patriotic baby, I mean. Not Alex not being eaten by sharks though that's also really really good. And I hope they have a good time in L.A. with no vampires except Angel."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Were there vampires there other than Angel when you were there?" Rory asked. "And did Logan behave? I meant to ask Angel, but I only got to email him a little since he sent me a message when we were in New York and I could only send a wee reply back."

[chasingangela]

Angela nodded, suddenly serious. "Uh-huh. Penn. Angelus made him hundreds of years ago." She shivered. "He grabbed Logan and I had to stake him. It was scary."

"And Logan was Logan. But he was friendly. Mostly. We didn't hang out alll that much."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Oh my God, are you okay?" Rory asked, eyes wide. "I've never had to stake one of them - I don't even know what that would look like."

[chasingangela]

"Dusty," Angela said. "He was there, and he had Logan, and I -- did it, and then he was gone."

"I never want to do it again. Ever." She sounded very sure.

"How was everything else, though? What about Tahiti and seeing your family and all of that?" Rory asked, reaching into her bag and pulling out a bag of cookies, which she offered to Angela.

[chasingangela]

"Everything else was good," Angela said, taking a cookie. "Oh, my parents decided not to split up, go figure. And Tahiti is just beyond anything. It's so pretty it's like another planet."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"I'm glad your parents are sticking together," Rory said, leaning on the desk. "Any reason? And you do have pictures of everything, right?"

[chasingangela]

"They kept having to talk, trying to figure out the settlement," Angela said. "And I guess they talked themselves into not settling. Plus, my dad's girlfriend decided to move back to Texas. Which is really, reallly good."

"And of course I have pictures. I'll have them developed handwavily by this weekend."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Texas is totally far away and I'm so glad everything's fixing itself and yay pictures!" Rory said happily. "Do you know what you're going to do for your stuff for photography yet?"

[chasingangela]

"No idea," Angela said, tilting her head. "Actually, can I photograph you for blue? Your eyes would be a neat example. I could do Becky, but..." Angela let her eyes trail off, figuring, 'she's a crazy hooker' could be implied.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Sure," Rory nodded. "And yeah, Becky is a crazy hooker so probably no. I'll probably get Bucky, actually, since he has Mom's eyes and they're huge."

[chasingangela]

Angela beamed. "Awwwwww. And yay, now I only have two pictures to figure out. Hey, are you going to go see them this week at all?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Definitely. Want to come along?" Rory asked, smiling. "You can hold him, even."

[chasingangela]

Angela hopped up onto the library counter."If your mom's up for it, absolutely. I'll bring ... something. Is Friday okay? Oh, and maybe Marty would like to come?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Marty can totally come too! Friday sounds fine. We had a shower, so we're buried in baby stuff. I think Mom mostly just wants coffee but she can't have it, boo," Rory said woefully.

[chasingangela]

"That's so sad for her," Angela said. "How come? She must be dying."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Breast-feeding." Rory made a face. "I told her, she should just switch to formula now. It won't make any difference!"
