Slughorn bids him good night and then he's in the Common Room. It's surprisingly cosy for a dungeon, if terribly austere—high ceiling, statues, paintings. There are very few people up, all of them upperclassmen. A couple of them look up from whatever they're doing, but most don't pay him any mind.
There are three other boys already there and four beds, total. One of the other boys is Sadde, reading. He looks up from his book and sits up. "Hi," he whispers, since the other boys are trying to sleep.
