Oh, there was someone. Alexa. By his table. He narrowed his eyes at her as he stood there with wand pointed at her, but then he told himself that she certainly couldn't speak Russian, and he lowered his wand.

"How long have you been waiting for?" he asked as he swiftly moved towards his table and hastily collected all the papers in one bunch.

The dungeons were usually quiet and today was no exception to that. The empty corridors echoed with the occasional sound of footsteps but none ever came close enough to the door to to really freak her out. That is...until a certain set that only grew louder and louder until it had the Gryffindor twisting, her attention to the door, out of reflex. What she saw had her paling somewhat. At the moment she didn't know which was worse, the fact Collarbin had caught her inside his office while he was away or the fact he had his wand pointed at her.

No way she could outcast him and she made no attempts to reach for her own wand either. Let's face it, even if she did get out a spell before him, he'd deflect it and haul her butt down to the dungeons.

The blood flow only regularized in her face after he'd lowered his wand and she was no longer in any immediate threat of suddenly being hexed or outted...most likely the second what with there being no witnesses and Collarbin more than happy to be rid of her. Her eyes locked on his as he made the fast approach to his desk, swiping up the letters she hadn't been able to read anyway.

Finally she swallowed that tinge of fear that threaten to come up and straightened a bit, refusing to be intimidated here and by a man who's name she never got right. "5....maybe 10 minutes? The door was unlocked and I peeked in to see if you were alright because you weren't answering when I knocked." Bulletproof excuse right there. For all he knew she REALLY CARED. As if.
