Hermione watched as Takumi turned away from the door, leaving it wide open to venture deeper into the room to fetch Malfoy. She was always a bit surprised by how casual students here were about their common rooms. The idea of letting members from another house into the Gryffindor common room was unheard of, the password and portrait hole guarded severely.

The students at Mahoutokoro weren’t bitter rivals like they so often were at Hogwarts. It was oddly freeing.
