[The buzz and excitement from the day has worn off and Ashley's bid her friends goodnight. While they are definitely able to sleep (hello hangover), she's...not exactly in that state-of-mind, and the best place to go in that event is the library she'd seen before. Thankfully her Pokémon (read: her Phantump) are all worn out and unable to cause havoc following her, so she tiptoes out in a pair of comfy pink pajamas, as if she's a kid sneaking out of her bedroom at night.

There's some kind of allure, being in a dorm-like setting. It's like she's back at college! Or a field trip, from high school. Especially with the boys around. Her boys. Before everything got...

Anyway, the library. Yes, the library. It shouldn't surprise her that someone else is here (someone...wearing a spiky pair of shades?) but regardless it does, because she's Ashley and she could be surprised by a salt shaker falling off the table. Hasn't even had time to browse the knock-off fantasy section, or the...mystery section.]

He--llo, um, I- I can find my own little...place, I swear. Won't bug you if you've got something you're intent on doing.
