Re: Bill-Albus
"Thank you," Bill answered, almost on reflex. Still this was Dumbledore and that made a large difference. "Dad always respected you," he said. "We all knew to do that even before we started Hogwarts." They'd always been loyal, would always be.
He looked at the others. "I'm going to put Shell Cottage under the Fidelius again," he said, only then remembering that Dumbledore had not been around that year. "We did after we moved there, made it a safe house for Order members in need of protection. This time I was thinking family. I need to know though, is it possible to use a portkey out of Hogwarts?" he asked. "Or will I need the Headmaster to make it? I want those at Hogwarts to have a way to quickly get to Shell Cottage if needed. The kids especially."
He looked at Dumbledore. "You know none of us would run from a fight if the school was attacked, but if someone is hurt and can't fight, I want to know they can get to safety fast."
