Bringing home strays

Kurt sighed from where he sat on the deck and listened to his wife's music boom out over Port aux Basques, thinking that this was the life and that it was good that everything was going well now.

Then he vanished in a cloud of startled smoke as Albus and Jav suddenly appeared on the deck. The clone was carrying someone in his arms. Someone with red hair.

"Really," Sal said, reaching the stairs and going down them as fast as her altered center of gravity would allow. "Who?"

Before reaching the guest rooms she grabbed a basket filled with brochures, towels, and those little hotel shampoos. Standard guest fare.

"Some redhead." The hyper clone stuck his head in the fridge in quest of beer.

"It's an alternate of George Weasley," said Albus, coming out to see where she was as he absently patted the purring lump in his breast pocket and fiddled with the boy's wand with the other hand.

"George Weasley..." Sal's face went blank for a moment, then brightened. "What's he doin' all th' way out here? An' drinkin'?"

"Mourning his brother." He sighed.

She swore.

"Why? What happened?"

She knew Fred and George. Who didn't know Fred and George? They were awesome people but had always existed as a pair.

Then she finds herself asking a very weird question. "Was it... Tom? And...what happened to Harry?"

"I never had time to ask," he admitted, lifting his eyebrows bemusedly. "All I know is that he's not our George... though this makes me uneasy on our George's behalf."

"No kidding," Sal said, pursing her lips. "Is he asleep now?" She tried to look around her grandfather toward the door of the room. "'Cause if he's not, I wanted to..." She held up the basket with a grin. "Y'know. Actually act like I runs this place?"

For the most part she was very calm and collected; but those blue eyes were flashing in that dangerous way once more.
