She should have done it yesterday... but she had been tired... and dizzy... and everything really hurt... and she had to leave her lessons early and ask for an extension on her homework for today. Now, feeling a lot better, she was working diligently so that her teachers would know that she really had been sick and she wasn't trying to skip work. She was pausing occasionally to draw on her limbs with a marker, but that was pretty much her maximum focus setting, alright? She was doing her homework.
She glanced up as someone entered, then went back to working. Then paused again, realizing she knew the someone at least by face and name. "Hi Phoenix... I see you've discovered my favorite homework spot." Though she didn't look up, her tone was friendly. Phoenix was nice enough and deserved a greeting even if she was busy. To say Phoenix was surprised that anyone else was inside this secret room was an understatement. That was most likely due to the fact that he was surprised that it existed at all, but also because he was so focused on what this was that he hadn't seen Ash at first, until she spoke to him directly. But true to form, he didn't show surprise on his face even if he felt it internally.
"Hi, Ash," he returned the greeting with a small smile, tentatively walking in. Not that he was hesitant about the space. In fact, he really wanted to explore it and check it out. But he also didn't want to disturb her if she was busy and it appeared that she was doing homework... even if she was on top of the table, which was curious in itself. "Has this always been here? I never saw it last year." A shame if it had existed then too and he just never knew about it, especially being in his own common room.
