Ashley had made her way up into the girls dorm after a conversation with Soleus
when he just returned from traveling, she paused when she saw Ophelia exiting the 7th years girls dorm.
She smiled awkwardly and cleared her throat shyly
"even-morning Ophelia how are you?"
she asked softly with a sweet smile trying to make casual conversation.

Ophelia ran her fingers through her hair as her heels clicked against the old stone at the top of the stairs from the dorm, her gaze set masterfully on the window looking underneath the black lake, her nose turned in disgust as some weird fish went past the window. Muttering incoherently under her breath her gaze seemed to break at the sound of Ashley's voice, turning her head sharply she raised an eyebrow just slightly. "Ashley." She spoke somewhat softly, not the normal sharp tone she had, she wasn't sure if it was the lack of sleep or the fact that she'd just downed the biggest cup of pumpkin flavoured coffee but her mood was somewhat brighter than normal. "I'm alright, yourself?" She asked, attempting to feign a sort of interest in the blonde that stood before her. "You're up early" speaking the obvious, the brunette glanced down at her watch to put her point across further. "Not that many people wandering about at this hour, what've you been doing?" Strangely enough Ophelia didn't come across as demanding, simply more intrigued.

Ashley smiled bashfully
"I was actually talking to Soleus in the common room did you know he was back?"
she asked innocently cocking her head to the side
"I guess I just track of time"
she shrugged then continued to smile politely
"and what about yourself?"

Ophelia nodded simply, her gaze following down the stairs, steadying on any chance of movement that might be at the bottom of the stairs. "Of course, he's family." She retorted, so simply that you'd think they were a functional family. "So you're yet to sleep?" She questioned, sounding somewhat surprised. "The early bird catches the worm, Ashley." Phe smirked under her breath, her hand moving to rub carefully at her wrist, covered carefully by her cardigan. "I need something from Hogsmead, and seeing as visiting rights aren't enabling me to leave the castle today one has to find different ways of escaping." A glint in her eye and Phe let another tiny smirk play on the corners of her lip. "Might be a little too early though, don't want to be caught in the corridors by the bloody cat of Filtch's"

"oh yes of course how silly of me" Ashley smiled and nodded
"I'm a prefect if you want I can go with you I don't mind being up for a few more hours,
it's a weekend what did you need to get from the village?"
Ashley asked curiously her eyebrows raising once again as she eyed the younger girl innocently.
"if you wanted anyway"
it was obvious how most in her house felt about her perhaps
Ophelia would rather wait and risk getting caught then be seen with 'Godfreak'.

Phe didn't bother with a reply but rather simply just shrugged the matter off, she wasn't really in much of a mood for a debate at that time of morning. "It's somewhat early anyway, not like anywhere will actually be open yet." She answered rather simply, eyes flitting to check her nails. "Just things from the apothecary, and Brandons mother has a new dress for me to try on." Reaching to her neck, Phe tiredly rubbed at the skin, very slight bruising visible as her cardigan sleeve dropped a little. Knowing, Phe quickly dropped her arm to her side, she knew Ashely well enough to know that if she asked, she'd accept whatever it was Phe has to say. "If you want to join, feel free." She shrugged again, glancing down the stairs before gritting her teeth a little, pain shooting up her left arm.

"oh I don't need to go that is alright thank you though"
Ashley smiled warmly at the girl then instantly frowned at the pained expression on Ophelia's face
"are you alright?"
she asked stepping closing in concern her head cocking to the side as she bit on her lower lip.

Phe started to pick at her nails, the red colour of the varnish cracking and peeling off before falling to the ground. "Then why offer if you don't need anything." The brunette questioned simply before leaning back against the wall a little. Her head turned quickly as Ashley spoke, asking if she was alright. Are you alright? Phe almost rolled her eyes at the question, although Ashely was just being friendly Phe wasn't the type to discuss herself. "I'm fine." Her tone seemed to snap a little before she paused, thinking it over quickly, knowing that her snapping could come across as something to hide (although, it was also just a very normal trait of hers). "I'm fine." She repeated more calmly. "Just thought I'd heard something" she added, gesturing towards the stairs. "probably nothing, but you know what that blasted woman Umbridge is like with the constant common room checks." Exhaling softly, Phe's gaze raised again, meeting Ashley's, any hint of pain was gone. If Phe was good at anything it was the ability to pretend things were fine whether they be physically or mentally painful.

Ashley frowned at Ophelia's tone blushing and feeling foolish
"I just thought you might of wanted some company I guess"
she smiled shyly and shrugged sheepishly
"sort of silly of me I mean we don't really talk or anything..I um I apologize if I offended you"
she looked up at the girl genuinely and forced another sheepish smile.

Raising an eyebrow again, Phe feigned amusement at the blondes blushing. "I see." It wasn't a mean 'I see' per say as more of a hint in her voice just accepting the fact, she didn't sound like she was belittling Ashley, not at all. "Why would I be offended you asked if I wanted you to join me to the village?" Replying this time, her voice sounded somewhat confused but more sounding like Ashley was an idiot. "As I said, you're free to join, suppose escaping this hell hole would be easier with you in tow."

Ashley blinked in surprise and wondered if that was a trick question surely Ophelia Rookwood was aware of the fact that pretty much everyone I slytherin aside from a few people hated her with a passion "I suppose I just didn't think you liked me much" Ashley tried not to look hopeful maybe people were coming around and easing up on their unjust dislike for her.

Ophelia let a simply shrug roll off of her shoulders. "I don't have to like you to allow you to accompany me to the village." Exhaling, Phe ran her fingers through her hair, fluffing it up a little. "Besides, I never said I disliked you, people just assume I don't like them because I'm naturally horrible." Dampening her lower lip. "I mean, if I'm being honest with you my feelings towards people in this place are neither here nor there." Smirking a little, she eye'd the blonde up and down for a moment. "Anyway, wouldn't the feeling be mutual?" Phe raised a questioning eyebrow as she awaited Ashley's response.

Ashley frowned and shook her head
"To be honest Ophelia I don't really know you so it is difficult to base an opinion on you I don't really dislike many people especially people I don't know but I am not ignorant in reguards to the things people say about me or think about me in this house"
She shrugged and smiled faintly.

Raising a lazy brow, Phe looked Ashley dead on before questioning somewhat seriously. "Do I seem like the type of person to follow trends of whom I should or shouldn't like? Because I honestly couldn't give a rats what people think in this house, quite clearly." Tilting her head a little, Phe let out a somewhat soft sigh. "Well, I'm not a complete monster and although you do seem to lack some of the more important Slytherin qualities that the house deems important to possess, you're in this house for a reason which automatically gives you worth."

Ashley widened her eyes worried she had offended Ophelia and instantly began to shake her head furiously then stopped and smiled awkwardly little did Ophelia know she practically begged the hat to let her in Slytherin sure she was determined but that was about all her and Salazar slytherin had in common but her mother being disappointed in her was /not/ an option
