Kyle was quick with his meal. He wanted to run by the dorms before going to detention, and he knew that if he got waylaid by anyone, he'd be late. 

Kyle was right of course. His sister was in the common room, waiting for him. "So you got detention." She sneered.

"Yeah, hear you've got it worse though." Kyle grinned, he enjoyed being able to tease his sister for it was a rare occurrence that he had something to pick on her about. 

"Yeah, Alistair convinced me to go. Told me it'd be funny because Slughorn doesn't want anyone he knows to have association with the Dark Lord there. Guess that's what Slughorn gets for allowing people to invite someone. It's weirdly the event of the year though." Maggie rolled her eyes. She hated socializing and it amused Kyle to see her so irritated. Irritated enough to show it. "Anyway I've got to go. Did you breath your dinner?" She asked as she pushed past him and out of the common room. Kyle didn't respond. There wasn't a reason to Maggie was already out of hearing range. Kyle was just to the dorm when Alistair passed him. 

"Detention tonight?" Alistair asked. Kyle nodded. "I'll wait up. I want to hear about it." Then he was gone after Maggie. Kyle dropped off his bag and checked his watch. He had enough time to make it to Snape's office. He checked that his wand was easily accessible and then hurried to detention. Siobhan was sitting in front of Snape's office.

"Hey." He said quietly, almost guilty sounding in case Snape was listening from inside. Hogwarts' walls had ears. "Your brother said he wanted to hear about dentition." It could be easily thought that Kyle was threatening Siobhan with telling on her if she was mean to Kyle during detention.
