Library [08/08]

Rory bounced into the library bright and early on Tuesday, sipping at her third cup of coffee as she took her place behind the desk and curled up with a book of Sylvia Plath's essays.

[Up eeeeeeeeearly 'cause I'll be AFK until around 1-2 EDT.]

Angela doesn't even work today, but somehow she's drawn to the library.

Go figure. "Hey, Rory. I have candy."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Oooh?" Rory perked up immediately. "Hi! Candy?"

[chasingangela]

"I got a bunch of hard candy when I was at the store. Needed a sugar fix," Angela said, popping a root-beer barrel into her mouth. She held the bag out to Rory. "You want?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Surely!" Rory said happily, taking a piece of candy. "What's new and exciting? Did you think you were anyone weird this weekend?"

[chasingangela]

"Joxer," Angela said, making a face. "There was ... armor. You?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory wrinkled her nose in sympathy. "Poor you. He's so skeevy. He tried to feel up Aeryn." She shook her head. "I was Jude. I called everyone 'bro' and slouched a lot."

[chasingangela]

"Aeryn?" Angela asked. "And he actually kept his limbs? I'm amazed."

"Jude is that skateboard boy, right? That sounds weird."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory nodded. "She was a printheth at the time, but still. And yeah, I barely know Jude, but I'm not sure my posture will ever be the same."

[chasingangela]

"Yeah, I'm surprised she didn't hunt him down later," Angela said. "I guess the gremlins are back, or something. Or maybe this is just weird season."

"I don't have any bites," Rory said, worrying her lip with her teeth. "Maybe it's like how we were all wee?"

[chasingangela]

"Me either, so you're probably right," Angela agreed, slightly discomfited by the thought. "Being wee was more fun. Wonder if that'll happen again?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"It's Fandom." Rory shrugged. "Probably will. Hope nothing happens on Friday, in any case."

[chasingangela]

"What's Friday?" Angela asked. "I know it's a special event, but I forget which one."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"The fashion show," Rory said. "I'm running it. Hopefully we won't have fairies possessing people and Sam won't knock out the power or something. I need models, though."

She shot an oh-so sly glance at Angela. "You know, if someone wanted to be awesome and be a model."

[chasingangela]

"No fairies," Angela shuddered, running a hand over her chin. "You really wannt me to model?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"You'd be good at it!" Rory said brightly. "I'd model myself but I have to run the whole thing. And you probably won't have to wear anything too weird."

[chasingangela]

"I did it for this thing for my mom before," Angela said, still mulling the idea over. "Okay. Nothing too weird, and I'll do it."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Yay!" Rory said happily. "And there will be pretty boys in pretty clothes there. Yay for perks."

[chasingangela]

"Perks are a happy thing," Angela agreed. "And yay pretty boys." She smiled. "Did you kiss Alec at the fair Friday?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"No," Rory said, slightly sadly. "Did you?"

[chasingangela]

Angela nodded happily. "I made Marty let me," she said. "He kissed Chloe too. Anyhow, it was definitely worth more than a dollar."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"I'm jealous," Rory pouted. "I didn't think it was probably worth the drama, considering I told Alec that I'd never had a one-night stand at a party and someone reacted by getting very drunk and annoyed. Pff. Boys are dumb."

[chasingangela]

"See, I would think someone would be, like, happy to know you aren't the one-night-stand type," Angela said. "Boys are strange."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Well, it was more that Alec said he could fix that," Rory admitted, blushing. "But I did get to see Alec dance half-naked onstage at Caritas at Jarod's birthday party. That's something."

[chasingangela]

"Still, unless you take him up on the offer...," Angela mused, also blushing a litle. "Anyhow. I'm jealous I missed Jarod's party. Wonder when the next big birthday thing will be?"
