**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Jul 3 00:00:11 2022 Jul 03 00:00:11 Thank you for telling me, dear boy. Your Father will be more comfortable if he knows as little about it as possible, for now we shall keep it between us Jul 03 00:00:30 * Morgan nods Jul 03 00:00:52 I will be guided by you in this but... I will bring the required mirrors Jul 03 00:01:25 * Verity nods Jul 03 00:02:02 I would be grateful for that. I will miss you this winter, I had hoped you and Molly would be settled with us a while Jul 03 00:02:43 I'm afraid we have too much to do... we have commitments to the Eisenfurst to keep Jul 03 00:04:11 * Verity nods Jul 03 00:04:46 You are a very busy man. But in a few years you will be in Gottkirchen and that is only a day away Jul 03 00:05:11 and in the meantime we will speak as if we were in the same room, regularly Jul 03 00:05:20 * Verity smiles Jul 03 00:05:38 If only we could have done that when you were gone all those years Jul 03 00:06:54 * Morgan nods Jul 03 00:07:00 I think that would have been too painful for me Jul 03 00:07:56 * Verity looks very saddened Jul 03 00:08:27 I understand, dear boy Jul 03 00:09:01 Lets not dwell on the past Jul 03 00:11:09 * Verity nods Jul 03 00:11:24 Would you show me to my room please? Jul 03 00:12:04 of course mother Jul 03 00:12:10 * Morgan offers his arm Jul 03 00:13:28 * Verity take it, letting him lead her Jul 03 00:14:26 * Morgan leads her to her room Jul 03 00:15:04 * Verity thanks him Jul 03 00:15:14 Dinner is at seven? Jul 03 00:15:27 I'd imagine so, yes Jul 03 00:15:48 * Verity nods Jul 03 00:15:58 I will be on time Jul 03 00:16:04 * Morgan smiles Jul 03 00:16:12 Alright mother Jul 03 00:17:37 * Verity goes in, shutting the door Jul 03 00:17:44 * Verity is now known as Molly Jul 03 00:17:58 * Molly comes out of David's room Jul 03 00:18:27 * Morgan looks at her Jul 03 00:18:31 Are you alright? Jul 03 00:18:52 * Molly nods Jul 03 00:18:56 Are you? Jul 03 00:19:01 * Morgan nods Jul 03 00:19:02 fine Jul 03 00:19:36 * Molly smiles Jul 03 00:20:27 I will put Varick to bed and send the others downstairs. Papa wishes to talk to us tonight Jul 03 00:21:29 * Morgan frowns Jul 03 00:21:31 alright Jul 03 00:22:20 * Molly kisses his cheek before going to the room marked "Varick" Jul 03 00:29:42 * Molly has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Jul 03 00:36:48 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Jul 03 00:36:57 * MollyK has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Jul 03 19:53:58 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Jul 03 19:54:00 * MollyK has quit (Quit: Igloo IRC: https://iglooirc.com) Jul 03 19:54:02 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Jul 03 19:58:33 *Everyone is assembled at dinner time except Claudia. The meal is good and, despite Molly's worries, Theresa and Hildegarde manage well. Adalbrecht and David want to know how things are in Innesbruck so Morgan fills them in. They're just finishing dessert when the front door opens Jul 03 20:00:03 I wonder who that is Jul 03 20:00:59 *they don't have to wait long before Jarvie shouts "hellloooo? Anyone home?" Jul 03 20:01:16 * Morgan smiles, going out into the hall Jul 03 20:05:33 *Grendlik is taking Jarvie's coat off. It's been less than two weeks since he saw her, but she looks noticeably bigger again* Jul 03 20:05:38 * MollyK is now known as Jarvie Jul 03 20:06:09 What ho, cuz. Tell me you have some food going spare! Jul 03 20:06:18 * Morgan nods Jul 03 20:06:27 no wonder you've gotten fat if that's your first question Jul 03 20:07:06 * Jarvie laughs, hugging him. She whispers quietly Jul 03 20:07:13 Am I in for a lecture? Jul 03 20:07:35 Possibly. Probably in fact. Jul 03 20:08:16 *Grendlik offers his hand to Morgan when Jarvie lets go* Good evening, my Lord Jul 03 20:08:53 Grendlik. You're looking well... you're probably in for grilling too, I'm afraid Jul 03 20:09:19 *Holzheim nods* I anticipate nothing less Jul 03 20:10:03 To say he was angry is something of an understatement, though I think I managed to take the brunt of that Jul 03 20:10:28 Finally, a use for you in the family! Jul 03 20:10:39 * Morgan nods Jul 03 20:10:47 It worked well, to be fair Jul 03 20:10:59 Edward here? Jul 03 20:11:13 No, he could not bear to spend another hour away from Mina Jul 03 20:11:21 Disgusting. Jul 03 20:11:29 * Jarvie smiles Jul 03 20:11:43 Horrendous, I tell you. Come on, lets get you sat down and fed Jul 03 20:13:44 * Jarvie nods, following him. Verity is the most excited to see her, and hugs her whilst Morgan gives instructions to bring more food for them. Molly hugs Grendlik, who is trying to make himself less the centre of Adalbrecht's attention. David looks the most relaxed Jul 03 20:16:20 * Morgan watches his father discretely Jul 03 20:16:51 *Adalbrecht looks like he is likely to tell them off, but not imminently* Jul 03 20:19:38 *Verity makes a big fuss over getting Jarvie seated, and touching her bump. She is fondly telling her niece all about when she was pregnant with Morgan and Edward, and they are still discussing the challenges and joys when the food comes for the latecomers. Molly watches them, sipping her coffee quietly. Adalbrecht and David are talking about the Jul 03 20:19:39 travel plans, whilst Grendlik is just eating and making himself unobtrusive Jul 03 20:20:19 * Morgan clears his throat Jul 03 20:20:25 father... could I talk with you please? Jul 03 20:21:01 *Adalbrecht gets up, following Morgan* Jul 03 20:21:07 * Jarvie is now known as Adalbrecht Jul 03 20:21:11 * Morgan heads through to his study Jul 03 20:21:23 * Adalbrecht goes in, remaining standing Jul 03 20:21:25 Yes? Jul 03 20:21:41 * Morgan sits down, nodding at another chair Jul 03 20:21:44 if you would... Jul 03 20:22:34 * Adalbrecht does so Jul 03 20:23:00 There's a couple of things I wished to speak to you about and I didn't see any better opportunity in the near future Jul 03 20:23:10 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 20:23:21 What things are they? Jul 03 20:23:55 The other night, you were thinking of your fathers reaction to your marrying mother? Jul 03 20:24:13 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 20:24:42 I was thinking about your Uncle, and how he tried to make things smoother Jul 03 20:24:51 * Morgan nods Jul 03 20:25:34 there was a great deal of shouting I expect. You vowed you would not treat your sons the same way? Jul 03 20:25:57 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 20:26:07 I did. How do you know that? Jul 03 20:26:38 I can't easily explain that, if I'm honest... the truth sounds like a fanciful excuse. Jul 03 20:26:51 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 20:27:03 Are you planning to berate me? Jul 03 20:27:14 Why would I do that? Jul 03 20:27:55 Because I failed at that.whether what you did was right or not, my handling of it was no matter than his Jul 03 20:28:14 Better* Jul 03 20:29:14 I was actually going to say that I don't believe you have broken that vow... You are prone to overreacting at the start, certainly but... even after that, it was impossible to please everyone. Jul 03 20:29:36 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 20:30:54 It was. It was an undesirable situation for all of us. Jul 03 20:31:39 As I've said before, we could all have handled it better... I think I wanted you to know that I understand why you had to take the position you did... just as I imagine you understand your fathers... Jul 03 20:33:14 I do. If Hans had survived, he would have been in my office yelling as he did to my Father Jul 03 20:33:40 * Morgan nods Jul 03 20:34:19 I don't wish you to be hard on yourself about it Jul 03 20:35:59 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 20:38:14 What else? Jul 03 20:38:27 Jarvie and Grendlik Jul 03 20:39:59 They look very pleased with themselves when they behaved disgracefully Jul 03 20:40:07 * Adalbrecht is frowning a little Jul 03 20:41:35 They're actually rather in love... He has always wanted to be a father, and she is finding it surprisingly likeable Jul 03 20:43:17 That does not change that they should have gone about this is a more appropriate manner Jul 03 20:44:37 I'm not going to try to persuade you... you are the Graf, the head of the family... my admiral... I would counsel you that, right now you are possibly reacting more than you will in a days time, and that we are to spend the next week travelling with them. Jul 03 20:45:15 * Adalbrecht sighs Jul 03 20:45:51 You are correct though. No amount of scolding can change the past, and they are now married. Jul 03 20:45:58 * Morgan nods Jul 03 20:46:09 Might I make a suggestion? Or an observation, I should say Jul 03 20:46:17 Yes Jul 03 20:48:15 I have found that, when I was upset recently with Edward, the way I dealt with it worked really well... I told him what I had done that had displeased me, and what I felt about it... I _explained_ to him why it was a problem for me... it gave him the chance to explain why he had taken the actions he had. We couldn't change that he had annoyed me, but we understood eachother better quicker Jul 03 20:50:18 And you want me to do this with Jarvinia and Grendlik Jul 03 20:52:41 Thats entirely up to you. It is an option I wished to present to you. I recognise how... I don't know, hurt and angry you were that Edward and I took action with them without consulting you, even though you understand our reasoning for doing so. I'm not about to override your authority again unless the need is dire. This is not. Jul 03 20:53:58 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 20:54:30 I appreciate that, Morgan. However, I think this time I will accept your counsel Jul 03 20:54:49 * Morgan nods, smiling slightly Jul 03 20:55:06 I am pleased to hear that, though I would have stood behind your choice regardless. Jul 03 20:56:53 Thank you. Your Mother is certainly happy to have someone to take care of Jul 03 20:57:09 * Morgan nods Jul 03 20:57:24 She is disappointed Molly is not with child... Jul 03 20:57:32 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 20:57:36 She is, yes Jul 03 20:57:43 * Morgan nods slighlty Jul 03 20:57:55 so am I. But it is not time yet. Jul 03 20:59:06 She understands that, though she had thought that as it was five months with Dietlinde that Molly would be pregnant after the same sort of time. Jul 03 20:59:30 * Morgan nods Jul 03 20:59:39 thats because we are actively avoiding it Jul 03 21:02:16 Your Mother does not know that Jul 03 21:02:49 No, I know. Jul 03 21:04:40 As we discussed before I went to collect her, I have been praying for some divine intervention for you and Molly to save you this dilemma Jul 03 21:13:56 (Test) Jul 03 21:14:11 ((yep)) Jul 03 21:14:15 * Morgan nods Jul 03 21:14:24 I am going to speak with Faulk about it Jul 03 21:18:05 * Adalbrecht has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Jul 03 21:31:06 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Jul 03 21:35:39 [21:12:02] Adalbrecht: Things have changed since the summer. Your close brush with her dying has changed your priorities Jul 03 21:35:51 * Morgan nods Jul 03 21:36:08 spending so much time with little children, helping with Thomas' birth, too... Jul 03 21:36:24 * MollyK nods Jul 03 21:36:42 * MollyK is now known as Adalbrecht Jul 03 21:37:20 We are all eager, but a good relationship with His Grace will set you in good stead for Gottkirchen Jul 03 21:37:32 * Morgan nods Jul 03 21:37:46 a man should keep his word, the promises he has made Jul 03 21:40:08 * Adalbrecht smiles Jul 03 21:40:24 Indeed he should. How is Molly dealing with this issue? Jul 03 21:40:57 In much the same way I am. Somewhat sad resignation to the wait Jul 03 21:44:17 * Adalbrecht has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Jul 03 21:53:59 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Jul 03 21:54:09 [21:41:01] Adalbrecht: I see how you are with Varick. You will be good parents to another Jul 03 21:54:42 I hope so Jul 03 21:55:03 What else did you want to discuss? Jul 03 21:55:32 I think it would be unwise to mention Jarvies plan to get rid of her child Jul 03 21:58:29 Your Mother does not know. What you will realise, as you get older, is that promises to be completely honest with your wife cannot be maintained in every way. Sometimes you will need to keep things from her for her own good. Jul 03 21:59:10 I was more thinking when you speak to Jarvie, but I take your point Jul 03 21:59:54 * MollyK nods Jul 03 22:00:00 * MollyK is now known as Adalbrecht Jul 03 22:00:21 I see no reason to rehash that, she was not in her right mind. Jul 03 22:00:54 * Morgan nods Jul 03 22:01:00 I'm sorry I was not there to see you off Jul 03 22:01:46 It doesn't matter. Molly said you had had a rough night Jul 03 22:02:10 Something of an understatement Jul 03 22:03:30 You Mother has brought the nightmare trap that Edward brought her. It sounded like it might be time for it. Jul 03 22:03:49 * Morgan sighs, nodding Jul 03 22:03:52 I'll try it Jul 03 22:04:56 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 22:05:47 *there's a knock on the door Jul 03 22:05:58 Come Jul 03 22:07:18 *Jarvie comes in* Just letting you know we're going now. We'll be back in the morning Jul 03 22:07:51 * Morgan looks at his father, waiting for him to speak Jul 03 22:08:31 * Adalbrecht stands up Jul 03 22:09:20 Why don't you and Grendlik stay here? Morgan can find two more rooms, I am sure. Jul 03 22:09:30 * Morgan nods Jul 03 22:09:35 I can Jul 03 22:09:58 *Jarvie glances at Morgan* I have my own house five minutes away Jul 03 22:10:25 You do Jul 03 22:12:13 There are staff here, and breakfast in the morning. It is no trouble, is it, Morgan? *he looks at his son. Behind his back Jarvie pulls a face at Morgan * Jul 03 22:13:31 It is the best opportunity you'll have to spend some time together that isn't in a tavern or guesthouse for some time. Jul 03 22:14:33 J: Alright. If you have some sheets, we'll make our own bed, no need to give the servants more work Jul 03 22:15:08 I'm sure I can find some Jul 03 22:15:53 J: I'll ask Molly, shall I? Jul 03 22:16:13 * Morgan shakes his head Jul 03 22:16:16 I'll deal with it Jul 03 22:17:33 J: *she nods, going* Jul 03 22:18:02 Why are you young people so insistent on sharing your bedchambers?! Jul 03 22:18:36 Because we like to. Because the thought of waking up alone from a nightmare is intolerable to me. Jul 03 22:19:47 * Adalbrecht just makes a hmmph of disapproval Jul 03 22:20:08 * Morgan chuckles Jul 03 22:20:11 because its warmer Jul 03 22:20:26 I do not need details, thank you! Jul 03 22:21:12 I'd suggest you try it. I think you'd be surprised at the difference it makes to your state of mind Jul 03 22:21:46 * Adalbrecht shakes his head Jul 03 22:22:13 It has been many years, and we are set in our ways Jul 03 22:22:48 * Morgan nods Jul 03 22:23:05 it was just a suggestion. Do you have any idea what David wants to talk to us about? Jul 03 22:24:05 Not at all Jul 03 22:25:43 * Morgan nods, sighing Jul 03 22:26:00 Have you done something he wouldn't like? Jul 03 22:27:13 usually Jul 03 22:27:52 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 22:28:21 I will let you get that and the sheets done. It is getting late with an early start tomorrow Jul 03 22:28:51 * Morgan nods Jul 03 22:29:09 well done, by the way... the effort you made with Jarvie was not unnoticed Jul 03 22:30:11 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 22:30:39 You are not children anymore. I have to let you all make your mistakes Jul 03 22:31:17 Even so... I'm proud of you Jul 03 22:32:32 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 22:32:51 Do you want scotch for seeing David? Jul 03 22:33:34 I think I will, actually Jul 03 22:35:53 * Adalbrecht nods Jul 03 22:36:11 I will send Molly and David to you Jul 03 22:37:02 * Morgan nods Jul 03 22:37:04 thank you father Jul 03 22:37:57 * Adalbrecht lets himself out. It's about ten minutes later when they arrive with drinks Jul 03 22:38:36 * Adalbrecht is now known as David Jul 03 22:41:12 *They all get settled in* Jul 03 22:42:11 * Morgan watches David Jul 03 22:43:06 I want to talk to you about Insel. Jul 03 22:43:28 * Morgan nods, sipping his scotch Jul 03 22:45:17 *Molly sips her own drink, watching them* Jul 03 22:45:31 Martha and I have spent many hours talking about it Jul 03 22:46:22 I'm glad to hear that Jul 03 22:47:58 I have decided that I want a relationship with the Rosenkrantzs Jul 03 22:49:47 * Morgan nods slowly Jul 03 22:49:52 to what end? Jul 03 22:50:22 To know them. But I do not want to be the Freiarr Jul 03 22:52:09 * Morgan nods Jul 03 22:52:23 Alright. How would you like me to handle that? Jul 03 22:53:11 When you have returned from Capperlucia, Martha and I would like to visit Insel Jul 03 22:54:10 * Morgan nods slowly Jul 03 22:54:22 Alright Jul 03 22:57:19 M: I could write to Josef and let him know that you do not intend to pursue the Freiarrdom, and would like to visit... Jul 03 22:57:26 * David nods Jul 03 22:57:53 I think you and Morgan should come with us Jul 03 22:58:26 *Molly glances at Morgan* [Will you be alright with my seeing Seb again?] Jul 03 22:59:47 [Of course] Jul 03 23:00:28 I think that would be a good idea... Sebastien does not want to take on the role of Freiarr when the time comes, it would give us opportunity to explore the options Jul 03 23:01:31 There are no other options Jul 03 23:02:25 Of course there are. It could revert to one of your children, for example. Jul 03 23:02:38 * David looks at Molly Jul 03 23:03:03 Are you wanting to be Freiarrin Insel? Jul 03 23:03:30 *Molly's micro-expression is discomfort Jul 03 23:03:39 M: I had not considered it Jul 03 23:04:20 I think we have enough on our plates... but it is an option, as I say Jul 03 23:05:09 I do not think Peter or James will want to. Sebastian will find a wife and want to be the Freiarr, I am sure Jul 03 23:05:39 He's rather married to the sea Jul 03 23:06:10 A wife will set him straight Jul 03 23:06:22 *Molly smiles a little* Jul 03 23:06:29 Perhaps Jul 03 23:09:18 I will speak to Peter and James once we have been to Insel. Martha want to go to Tawstock in the summer to see the new baby, she has missed out on her latest grandchild and you know how she is with babies Jul 03 23:09:32 *Molly sips her scotch, nodding* Jul 03 23:09:44 Get her to spend some time with Jarvie, that should settle that Jul 03 23:09:59 * David nods Jul 03 23:11:00 Verity and Martha have been making plans to have Jarvie's child be born at Die Dauerhaftigkeit. It has apparently been two many years since the house had a newborn Jul 03 23:11:28 * Morgan nods, sighing Jul 03 23:11:52 * David glances at Morgan a moment before looking back to David Jul 03 23:12:16 We will be leaving quite early tomorrow, are you leaving at the same time? Jul 03 23:12:21 M:* Jul 03 23:13:03 * David nods "I have great faith in Grunhelm, but I would be happier being there to overseer it myself in Adalbrecht's absence" Jul 03 23:13:29 * Morgan smiles slightly Jul 03 23:14:00 He's a very capable man Jul 03 23:14:37 * David nods Jul 03 23:15:04 *There are the sounds of people going upstairs* Jul 03 23:16:03 * Morgan glances at the ceiling Jul 03 23:16:57 They're as loud as the children Jul 03 23:18:41 * David checks the clock on the mantle Jul 03 23:19:08 It is getting late, I am going to turn in. I will see you both in the mo before you leave Jul 03 23:19:14 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:19:16 alright David Jul 03 23:20:54 * David shakes Morgan's hand and hugs Molly before leaving the couple alone. She downs what remains of her scotch before pouring him some more and refilling her glass. She watches him Jul 03 23:21:02 Are you alright, my love? Jul 03 23:21:08 * David is now known as Molly Jul 03 23:21:15 Is there a reason I would not be? Jul 03 23:21:42 The comments about no newborn at Die Dauerhaftigkeit, primarily Jul 03 23:21:51 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:22:32 Mother is disappointed we are not with child Jul 03 23:23:37 * Molly smiles slightly Jul 03 23:23:47 I am sorry to upset her Jul 03 23:23:54 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:24:58 Whilst I am taking the herbs, it is highly likely that we will continue not to be. They are effective, and I take a high dose each day Jul 03 23:25:08 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:25:09 I know Jul 03 23:26:34 * Molly nods Jul 03 23:27:04 We have things to do. Perhaps I should tell her about the herbs, so her hopes are never raised Jul 03 23:28:19 I don't think that would sit well with them Jul 03 23:28:56 No, but the hope that any time she hears from us will be to share that news cannot be easy either Jul 03 23:29:41 No, I suppose not Jul 03 23:31:06 She will be able to channel that grand-materal energy into Jarvie's baby, and I would imagine Mina and Edward will be increasing within a few months Jul 03 23:31:26 that is their intention Jul 03 23:31:31 * Molly nods Jul 03 23:31:48 I see no reason why they will not be successful Jul 03 23:32:49 * Morgan nods, sipping his drink Jul 03 23:33:19 That will keep your parents quite busy and distracted from us for a year or two Jul 03 23:33:29 Aye, probably Jul 03 23:33:40 * Molly smiles gently Jul 03 23:33:51 That will make it easier, won't it? Jul 03 23:34:07 For them, yes Jul 03 23:34:26 I meant for you, my love, knowing your mother is not waiting Jul 03 23:34:32 perhaps Jul 03 23:34:41 * Molly nods Jul 03 23:35:40 I think it is time we settled for bed too... though it is rather a full house tonight! Jul 03 23:35:54 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:35:58 yes, it is Jul 03 23:36:11 * Molly smiles, finishing this glass too Jul 03 23:36:33 We will have to be very quiet... no tickling Jul 03 23:36:39 indeed Jul 03 23:37:27 No tickling for quite some time. We are going to be very accompanied the next week or so, aren't we? Jul 03 23:37:38 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:37:46 yes, we are... its going to be strange Jul 03 23:38:00 It's going to be very impractical! Jul 03 23:38:36 damn inconsiderate of them, really Jul 03 23:38:51 Well, I should imagine at inns and taverns we will have Varick sharing our room! Jul 03 23:39:13 I expect so Jul 03 23:39:47 And once we arrive in Graben you will be not sharing a bed with me Jul 03 23:40:26 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:40:31 sleeping in the snow... Jul 03 23:40:54 Mmhmm. Without me to warm you up. Jul 03 23:41:27 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:42:23 And I will be sharing a room with Mina and Stef, at the very least Jul 03 23:42:32 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:42:34 indeed Jul 03 23:42:47 * Molly smiles Jul 03 23:43:16 And there is no way we can sneak off on the journey, not with HH and Jarvie with us! Jul 03 23:43:46 No, I'm afraid not Jul 03 23:45:07 So like Edward, we will also be waiting for his wedding night! Jul 03 23:45:14 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:45:19 I think so, I'm afraid Jul 03 23:45:36 I am rather unhappy about that, my love Jul 03 23:46:17 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:46:19 so am I Jul 03 23:46:24 * Molly glances at his glass "are you finishing that?" Jul 03 23:46:50 * Morgan nods, doing so Jul 03 23:47:20 We had best quietly make the most of tonight then, hmm? Jul 03 23:48:04 Yes, I rather think so Jul 03 23:48:55 Did you need to check everything is secured before retiring? Jul 03 23:49:04 * Morgan smiles slightly before nodding Jul 03 23:49:06 aye Jul 03 23:49:16 * Molly tilts her head Jul 03 23:49:26 A guilder for them, my love... Jul 03 23:50:04 I was just thinking how much some things change and how some change very little Jul 03 23:50:18 Oh? How so? Jul 03 23:51:08 How I still feel the need to check the house... in truth, I have an urge to check the grounds but I can just about ignore that Jul 03 23:52:00 * Molly smiles Jul 03 23:52:27 I can wait, my love. Do what you need, hmm? Jul 03 23:52:54 * Morgan nods, rubbing his chin Jul 03 23:53:22 very nearly my whole world is in this house... I need to make sure you're all safe Jul 03 23:54:11 * Molly smiles softly Jul 03 23:54:23 That is rather lovely Jul 03 23:55:06 Only missing Heinzharold, Inga, Edward, and Mina? Oh, Florrie and Alice too Jul 03 23:56:54 and mama Jul 03 23:57:04 * Molly nods Jul 03 23:57:42 How much things change... not so long ago there was almost no one you cared about keeping safe Jul 03 23:57:48 * Morgan nods Jul 03 23:57:54 its difficult Jul 03 23:58:04 Why, my love? Jul 03 23:59:03 The fear of losing you all... its almost paralysing at times
