Unfortunately, the clearing headache soon tells Remus it’s time to face the music. He stalls as long as possible, splashing his face with water in the bathroom and avoiding eye contact with his reflection in the mirror (thankfully, Sirius has not gotten around to enchanting his mirror, so Remus is saved any snide remarks from inanimate objects). Finally, though, he becomes anxious Sirius might come up and find him snooping around in his bathroom after sleeping in his bed, and decides to head downstairs before that can happen.
