Every time James and Sirius got up in the middle of the night to explore the castle they'd accidentally wake Remus up too, either by nudging an outstretched limb or whispering.
Remus would then wait for them to come back in the common room after arguing with himself whether or not to stop them. Usually he decides to let them have their fun.
When James and Sirius do get back, however, Remus would have already fallen asleep on the couch.
James and Sirius know how easy it is to wake Remus up so they normally just settle down on the nearby armchairs with him or go back to the dorm.
Most of the older Gryffindors have gotten used to seeing the three Marauders the next morning, James half-slid down the armchair, Sirius' head and legs over the armrests, and Remus sitting on the couch with his head drooping to one side, at least once every two weeks.
Occasionally Peter would be with them, snoring in one of the armchairs or the floor, but usually he isn't aware of the three of them leaving until the next morning (like I said, he's a very heavy sleeper...) when he sees them.
