Methos lifted his head from the book he was studying as Chloe stalked into the cafeteria. While he didn't raise his voice at her call for attention he did glance at Oona, watching her reaction to the entrance. Methos half-smiled at the mix of relief and disappointment he saw Chloe's words draw from Oona. He chuckled out right when she said they should find a better way to store the books than in a wooden trunk, "Maybe, but they were in there when we needed them."
Methos answered Oona's question with a quick nod, "Yes, I'd be interest in some... sword sparring with you. It's good to stay in practice."
He raised his eyebrows at George when she asked who wanted to go first, wondering if she needed pointed out to her there was no one in the room that needed to be switched back. Methos hid his smile as Chloe spoke what he'd been thinking, "Nobody here needs it."
Methos frowned listening to May's explanation of how the need to get out of the bunker seemed to be legit. He moved to where Tara and Oona had been piling and categorizing the books, and considered whether the books should be put back in their trunk to be carried out of the bunker in it. As much as Methos was concerned about the books' safety he also wondered if he should be heading for his own room to collect what he wished to get out of the bunker. He absently fingered the charm at his neck, glad of the knowledge he had his sword and it with him. They weren't going to be lost to whatever was coming.
"Volcanoes," Methos repeated softly. River-in-Molly had told him how it was quieter inside the other girl. If Molly-in-River was hearing that noise she might be harder pressed to make sense of it. While that thought made him think it might be something other than an eruption they were facing, Methos imagined it did likely involve some kind of fiery explosion. He nodded at Chloe's assertion she wouldn't bet against Molly knowing what she was talking about. Methos asked Oona, "Are we putting the books back in the trunk and carrying them out?"
