James Potter:

— Is either sleeping in starfish position, drool running down his cheek, or cuddled up like a fetus on his side.
— All you have to do to wake him up is poke his waist with your pointer finger.
—  Wakes up with sleep wrinkles and gasping for breath like a wild animal.
— "Wha-Who-Huh?"
— Stares at you like he's never seen a human before. If you have a problem and need help with it he'd probably get up to help you (but very reluctantly bc he has a jog later on), but if you had a nightmare and want to sleep with him, he'd welcome you in with open arms.

Sirius Black:

— Is for sure sleeping in a starfish position. Half of the bed covers are on the floor and the other half thrown over him like it was in a hurry. He's lost a sock and his hair is flared above him like the sun rays.
— Will take you a decade to manage to wake him up. One tiny nudge and he's still sleeping. If you start aggressively rocking him (which you eventually will) he'll only smack his lips, move a little bit, and say, "Hah?" which translates into 'Huh?' btw.
— "Uh-huh" "Yah" "Mhm"
— His eyes are either half open like he's squinting, or they're completely closed. He's scary when he sleeps.
— If you have a problem and need help with it, he would completely ignore you and act like he went back to sleep. If you had a nightmare and wanted to sleep with him, he'd flop to the side with a groan and allow you to slide in. "If ya tell Rems he'll murder ya."

Remus Lupin:

— Is either curled up on his side like a ball (it's the wolf in him), or on his back, one arm near his face and the other at his side, his head turned towards his left.
— Waking him up is so easy. It's not as easy as James, but definitely lightwork compared to Sirius. When you poke him he won't wake up, his eyebrows might scrunch up, but if you nudge him or push him gently, he'll most likely wake up.
— "Yeah?! Oh." Sniff joined by a lip smack "Mm, I see." "Of co-yawn-course."
— His eyes are closed but he's listening to every word you say, unless you start talking too much for too long.
— If you have a problem and need help with it, he'd probably tell you to come back to him in the morning because he needs sleep, unless it's an emergency. If you had a nightmare and wanted to sleep with him, he would take a glance at Sirius. If his curtains were open, he would sleepily smile at you and kindly let you down. If his curtains were closed, on the other hand, he would allow you to join him.

Peter Pettigrew:

— He sleeps on his stomach, and because of this, his snores come out louder than usual.
— Waking him up is a quest. It's easier than Sirius, but harder than Remus. No matter how much you nudge and push him, he just won't budge! That is until you've had enough and you close his nose so he wakes up with a shortage of oxygen.
— "WHA?" "YAH?" "HUH!" overly loud. A little too loud.
— His eyes are wide open and probably blinking rapidly, looking around the room like he has memory loss and he forgot who and where he is.
— If you have a problem and need help with it, he'd either fall asleep while you're talking, or he'd listen to everything you say and if he's lazy or it's something he can't help with, he'll fall back asleep without a word. If you had a nightmare and wanted to sleep with him, he'd shake his head (as much as he can in his position), and tell you that he's not someone you'd want to sleep next to. He just wants the bed all to himself.

Lily Evans:

— When she sleeps she looks like an angel. Very graceful, very polite, very demure. Her hair is sprawled out above her but unlike Sirius, hers looks great. She's on her back, arms above her head, and her legs somehow crossed? Like I said, very modest, very demure.
— Waking her up is simple enough. She won't wake up like James but definitely not like Sirius. If you nudge her once with some force, she'll wake up and immediately ask you what the problem is.
— "What? Are you okay?" "Mm-hm." "Yeah, yeah, no worries!"
— Her eyes are squinted a bit at first since she just woke up, but she's paying attention to you and looking at you.
— If you have a problem and need help with it, she would try to help you solve it then and there. If it's a problem that can't be solved in one night, she'd tell you to come back to her in the morning and that she'll help you figure it out and map it all out. If you had a nightmare and wanted to sleep with her, she'd smile at you (very motherly, it nearly aches your heart), and sigh. She'd pull aside the covers and help you slide in before raising the sheets back up and falling asleep immediately after asking if you're okay.
