Ella jumped too, her own eyes widening at the man's reaction. This...was awkward. Yes. You'd think she'd be used to situations like this by now. Oh gosh.

"I um...Professor?" Her voice was quiet, not wanting to attract too much attention. "You were sleeping. Or...well, not sleeping." Finger quotes around that bit. "I just mean, I didn't see anything if you don't want me to have seen anything." Serious nodding there.

"I just didn't want to leave you sleeping like that in the library."
Professor? That was him. Cosgrach lifted his head heavily again, and eyed the girl with growing anger that happened when people were TAPPED out of sleep.

"See what?" Along with the anger grew the confusion, apparently, because he didn't even get what she was talking about. But he remembered everything else: he was in the library on his favourite seat, trying to believe in divination.

"Yeah, thanks." He didn't really mean that, though. He took a deep breath, swallowed his anger back, frowned and shook his head. He probably owed to the girl, but he was still too befuddled from the sleepiness to acknowledge it. He then eyed her again, and did that head movement when people see something they didn't recognise at once but upon a second look, they know it: he threw his head back a little, frowned, and blinked.

"Ella? Is that you?" She could, by now, tell that the Professor wasn't on his day and had been getting little sleep for the past few days.
