I thought about this as well... Honestly, I *wish* Bill had not Disapparated 
before Sirius revealed himself. That would save me a lot of worry. ( But, 
then I am in the twisted Severus/Sirius/Remus love triangle frame of mind as 
I *do* so love them all... lol) Bill, again a character I seem to like a 
great much, seems to have a head on his shoulders, and I doubnt hardly that 
once Dumbledore has explained EVERYthing Bill, Charlie and Mr Weasley will 
all be in line to stand beside Dumbledore- which of course means standing 
beside Sirius.

I still keep coming back to a problem with Percy. I easily see how Mr Weasley 
will abandon MoM protocol, or what have you, and deny them his allegience. 
He, as I have said before, is a mischief maker in his own right, and although 
he works for the MoM, he has blatantly not always followed the rules-- as 
well as having written some loop holes into the laws which affect him...

Percy will probably have to make a crucial decision. I want Percy to break 
free of his mindset. I want him to prove a hero and a fun loving Weasley. I 
keep my fingers crossed for him, for I, like you, was also a rule follower...
