Ashley didn't like to talk about it at all but she figured she asked for it so she nodded with a sheepish smile "that's ok I mean I understand my dad can't talk much anymore either...." chewing on her lower lip she could not help looking sad for a few more moments before she forced another smile "hopefully he comes back soon I'm sure he misses you" Ashley nodded looking hopeful she thought it was nice how Soleus and Tiffany seemed to actually like each other, her brother hated her.

"I doubt that." she said with a small snort, blushing before she could stop herself. She felt like she couldn't stop talking, no matter how badly she wanted to keep to herself. Something about this entire family brought it out in her. "He's not exactly pleased with me at the moment. We can sort it out when he gets back." she paused, muttering, "The ass."
Her last conversation with Soleus hadn't been a particularly pleasant one, in fact, he'd accused her of ruining his life & she'd threatened to.. "rip out his tongue, freeze it, and then stab him with it." Not exactly friendly conversation.

"because of me?" Ashley guessed with a shy sheepish smile, she bit own on her lower lip looking embarrassed "I mean, I know I am not exactly the kind of girl Soleus would - I mean I just I'm not....not that I am not I just don't think were" Ashley smacked her hands to her forehead and shook her head "I'm sorry" she looked up at Tiffany genuinely worried she had offended her "it's just I know I'm not the ideal choice for Soleus and I understand him beng frustrated but I mean..he understands just like I do what our duties are he wont be mad forever" she trailed off looking at the ground sheepishly......"I hope...."

"You haven't done anything." she replied with a small roll of her eyes, "He has to grow up sometime." she shook her head, fiddling with her own wedding ring. She felt a little guilty - the conversation had started off mostly whiny on his part, but when he'd tried to compare her engagement, it had turned ugly.

Ashley smiled sheepishly an fell silent, taking a seat under the tree she normally sat by the lake she looked out at the water as it gently rippled, taking a deep breath and inhaling the cool night air she pulled out her things and got to work.

Blushing at how personal she'd gotten, Tiff took an inward vow of shutting-the-hell-up & sat down as well, setting her textbook aside, splayed open to the page she'd been on previously. Looking up at the sky, she could no longer see Cassiopeia, the trees now in the way, but she let the thought slip from her mind & tried to concentrate on finishing up her work.

Ashley let out a sigh as she finished her work and leaned back resting against the trunk of the tree they sat beside, staring out at the lake again she watched as a few tentacles emerged from the dark water splashing about only to submerge back into the water a few moments later.

Tiff was just finishing putting her various mess of pages into the correct order, head snapping up at the splashing noise coming from the lake. She narrowed her eyes in the darkness to see better, catching sight of one long tentacle just as it vanished into the depths again. A year ago, she would have been impressed.
"If you're not ready to go in, we can stay here." Tiffany said finally, breaking the silence between them as she rolled up the orderly parchment & wrapped a leather band around them carefully, using her teeth to tighten it into a secure knot.

Ashley just finished the remaining work but found herself distracted by the forest, staring at it with wide almost longing eyes she bit down on her lower lip then shook her head and smiled shyly as Tiffany spoke to her "sorry....yes I'm all ready we can go..." she took one more tiny glance at the forest wondering if Thorfinn was there then scooped up her things.

"You must be tired." Tiffany observed, looking up at the blonde once the parchment stack was securely rolled & fastened, tucking it into the large bag that hung from her shoulder as she stood. That was what normal girls her age did at this time of night, after slaving over coursework. Get tired, go to bed, fall asleep.
"I shouldn't have kept you up this late." she added, almost guiltily. She sometimes forgot that not every other person she went to school with had turned into a psychoinsomniac over the course of a summer.

Ashley blinked at Tiffany confused for a moment then shook her head and smiled sheepishly "no no it's fine sorry don't worry about it I just zoned out for a minute really I am not tired" she was a little tired but not enough for it to be a problem really she was just distracted.

Leading the way down the dark path of stone floors to the dungeons, Tiffany took a sharp right & walked directly through Peeves, shuddering sharply & turning around to make sure Ashley was still nearby.
"Late night, Princess?" the poltergeist asked her, before smirking at Ashley & tipping an invisible hat. "Well this is new company. What are you doing up this late, sneaking into the library?" he taunted, turning his gaze from Ashley back to Tiffany waiting for a response from either of them.
Tiffany didn't even look at him, instead grabbed Ashley by the wrist almost painfully tightly & dragged her to keep walking, but Peeves followed along.

Ashley winced slightly at the grip Tiffany had on her feeling her talon like nails press into her skin as she pulled her along "I- umhmm Tiffany-" Ashley cut herself off when she heard silence and just continued to follow her down the corridor ignoring peeves and the piercing into her skin he best she could.

"Oh, come on!" Peeves taunted, speeding up to float just above them, ahead of the pair. "Godfreak, really, are you going to let your girlfriend be so rude?" the poltergeist turned his gaze on Ashley, raising one eyebrow at her impatiently. "Now, now, princess, what on earth happened to your royal manners?" he swooped in & gently grabbed a lock of Tiffany's hair, lifting it up & down just for the sake of irritating her. She reached up with her free hand & went to smack him away, but only was met with thin air - though he did drop the lock of hair & move his attention back to Ashley instead.

Ashley frowned and looked away from peeves she didn't like to talk to him like most students but unfortunately with her it was a bit of a deeper rooted discomfort peeves became close with Kevin after it was too hard for her to be around him when Kenneth died something she deeply regretted now knowing she'd never see him again. "Please leave us alone" Ashley mumbled sadly trying to pick up her pace and avoiding looking at peeves.
