**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Oct 31 09:25:13 2022 Oct 31 09:25:13 * Morgan (~mads@iMac-2.lan) has joined Oct 31 10:49:45 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Oct 31 12:26:03 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Oct 31 12:29:00 * Morgan (~mads@iMac-2.lan) has joined Oct 31 12:31:50 It does Oct 31 12:32:05 * Morgan nods Oct 31 12:32:29 Did you have concerns I would be distressed by it? Oct 31 12:34:34 * Morgan nods Oct 31 12:34:36 Very much so Oct 31 12:34:46 Why did you think I might? Oct 31 12:35:19 Because of quite how vulnerable you were... how utterly exhausted it seemed to make you Oct 31 12:35:50 * MollyK shakes her head Oct 31 12:36:56 A few weeks ago or more, I would perhaps have found that extreme vulnerability quite difficult to deal with, but... things have changed... Oct 31 12:37:09 Oh? Oct 31 12:37:20 We are closer, I think Oct 31 12:37:29 * Morgan nods Oct 31 12:37:33 I think so Oct 31 12:37:42 * MollyK nods Oct 31 12:38:13 As to being exhausted... it's not unpleasantly so Oct 31 12:38:25 * Morgan nods Oct 31 12:38:30 right.... Ok good Oct 31 12:38:48 I rather think I slept harder than I have for years! Oct 31 12:39:24 * Morgan nods Oct 31 12:39:36 You were _completely_ out of it when I got up... you didn't even stir... Oct 31 12:39:45 * MollyK nods Oct 31 12:39:57 I did not feel you move Oct 31 12:40:36 * Morgan nods Oct 31 12:42:07 And you do not feel anything unpleasant about it? Oct 31 12:43:24 I don't.... No I don't think so Oct 31 12:45:22 * MollyK nods Oct 31 12:45:41 It's... certainly unconventional Oct 31 12:46:01 * Morgan snorts quietly Oct 31 12:46:16 What did you tell Inga? Oct 31 12:46:25 About what? Oct 31 12:48:55 Last night... I assumed, given her evening, the being sick and the, uhh... hospitality hand job, you'd have wanted to reciprocate some Oct 31 12:49:28 No, I would n-... *she starts giggling* the what?! Oct 31 12:51:06 They played make believe that she was a friendly maid... Oct 31 12:52:05 * MollyK nods slowly, considering the term "A _hand job_... that is what it is called here? I only knew Branler... *the Montaigne term literally means 'to jerk'* Oct 31 12:55:30 Well, thats what _he_ called it... along with... lets see... a rubby rub... Oct 31 12:55:40 * MollyK starts laughing Oct 31 12:55:43 Oh my god Oct 31 12:57:52 * MollyK tilts her head "I think there would be a way to have a Bubbies Rubby Rub..." Oct 31 13:02:10 I think... HeinzHarold referred to the Friendly Maid thing... as... bed, bring you off, breakfast... hang on, what? Oct 31 13:02:46 Bring you off... interesting... Oct 31 13:03:15 I'm rather more interested in what you just said Oct 31 13:04:00 Oh? *he can just see the smile as she watches the carriage out in front* Oct 31 13:04:25 Just wondering how that would work Oct 31 13:04:38 * MollyK nods Oct 31 13:07:49 I think... *she sends him the image. It's a low lit bedroom, he is sat naked in a chair reclined, backside near the edge, and she's on her knees between his legs. She holds her well-oiled breasts together, and his erection is encased between them. She glides them up and down him as she watches him with a smile* ... like that. Oct 31 13:08:16 oh... oh I see Oct 31 13:08:36 * MollyK shrugs a little Oct 31 13:09:11 Yes, Heinzharold and Inga play make-believe in the bedroom a great deal, they like that Oct 31 13:11:11 I understand they did pretend she was a ships captain, so that she could find the confidence to say what she wanted Oct 31 13:11:17 * MollyK nods Oct 31 13:12:41 They do all manner of things like that now. I told her of my dream of being a curious Vaticine Freiarr's daughter propositioning a mysterious groomsman who is employed by her father Oct 31 13:13:45 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:14:18 * MollyK giggles "That is very well-received apparently" Oct 31 13:14:40 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:14:50 I wouldn't be surprised if that is a common fantasy... Oct 31 13:15:01 For men? Oct 31 13:15:39 No, for women Oct 31 13:16:00 Hmmm... I suppose so, yes Oct 31 13:17:29 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:17:47 That's a power dynamic in itself, is it not? Oct 31 13:17:52 I think so yes Oct 31 13:18:41 She is in a position of power over him. He is compelled to give her what she wishes to maintain his employment Oct 31 13:19:43 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:19:44 Indeed Oct 31 13:20:43 But in return, he has an experienced and knowledge she does not, and in that he could expand or exploit her boundaries as he chooses Oct 31 13:21:02 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:21:32 * MollyK shrugs a little again Oct 31 13:22:01 They enjoy it, and I am happy to donate that to them if it brings them joy Oct 31 13:23:57 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:24:02 Aye Oct 31 13:24:42 I am not sure that level of being in control and exerting that power firs well for me Oct 31 13:24:49 Fits* Oct 31 13:24:57 No? Oct 31 13:25:59 I... I suppose I probably could pretend that, if you would enjoy it, but being demanding like that does not come naturally Oct 31 13:27:01 * Morgan shakes his head Oct 31 13:27:10 It is not something I have any particular desire for Oct 31 13:27:16 * MollyK nods Oct 31 13:27:58 And I think you would be uncomfortable the other way around... Oct 31 13:29:55 Oh? Oct 31 13:30:02 A Lord propositioning a maid reliant on her work in his father's household to provide him an intimate education... it is too close to the real duties and responsibilities of your life... Oct 31 13:30:24 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:30:26 true Oct 31 13:31:39 * MollyK is quiet a moment Oct 31 13:32:39 *everything around them is still peaceful, birdsong, hooves, cartwheels* Oct 31 13:33:54 * Morgan looks round regardless Oct 31 13:34:08 * MollyK shakes her head briefly Oct 31 13:35:08 No, I did not tell Inga anything about last night. She asked why I looked to be sitting a little gingerly, and I said my bottom was sore from riding with you yesterday Oct 31 13:35:53 I see... thats not a bad excuse Oct 31 13:36:29 * MollyK nods Oct 31 13:36:52 Why don't you just use magic to relieve the tenderness? Oct 31 13:37:11 Because it is a pleasant reminder Oct 31 13:37:57 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:38:00 Alright Oct 31 13:38:21 I did not tell her because thought you would definitely prefer this to be private. Oct 31 13:39:36 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:39:38 I would, yes Oct 31 13:39:44 * MollyK nods Oct 31 13:39:58 You had not heard of it in the War? Oct 31 13:40:19 I can't say I had, no Oct 31 13:40:40 It only occurred to me because of something you said in a dream Oct 31 13:41:33 * MollyK nods slowly Oct 31 13:42:19 I had wondered since February if it was something you had done, something you liked, but recently I realised how preposterous that was Oct 31 13:42:31 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:42:32 Quite Oct 31 13:44:13 It had played on your mind since the dream? Oct 31 13:45:07 No, actually... I initially only said it to see quite how far you would go... and then when you agreed, then I was curious... Oct 31 13:46:02 * MollyK nods, blushing Oct 31 13:46:19 And you have seen now that I would go very far indeed? Oct 31 13:47:15 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:47:19 I have Oct 31 13:47:47 You would not have been upset had I been horrified at the suggestion? Oct 31 13:48:19 No, I don't think so Oct 31 13:48:30 And now? Oct 31 13:49:21 I'd be... disappointed if you had chosen to not do it again Oct 31 13:50:00 * MollyK nods "But I also know you would respect that entirely" Oct 31 13:50:08 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:50:10 Yes I would Oct 31 13:51:01 Do you think you would have thought of it in the years ahead, or do you think you would have been able to chalk it up to one night's experience and then forget it? Oct 31 13:51:45 I think, given your reaction to it, I would think it'd be on my mind quite a bit Oct 31 13:52:02 Oh? Whyso, my love? Oct 31 13:52:32 Because it was amazing... Oct 31 13:53:12 * MollyK nods Oct 31 13:53:28 Yes it was... and I have no doubt it would be again... Oct 31 13:54:31 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:54:33 I hope so Oct 31 13:54:39 And it matters to you that I yearn for it, not just yield to it? Oct 31 13:54:44 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:54:45 Yes Oct 31 13:56:00 * MollyK nods, leaning back against him more Oct 31 13:56:31 I am glad. I was concerned you would be very regretful of it in the cold light of day Oct 31 13:57:32 * Morgan nods Oct 31 13:57:39 I had wondered if we both would Oct 31 13:58:09 Because of Elsie? Oct 31 13:59:17 * Morgan shrugs Oct 31 13:59:20 A little... Oct 31 13:59:28 * MollyK nods Oct 31 13:59:41 I was concerned that would be very difficult for you Oct 31 14:00:05 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:00:10 But we chose to do that Oct 31 14:00:30 Yes, absolutely. And you were not angry with me Oct 31 14:01:17 No, absolutely not Oct 31 14:01:22 * MollyK nods Oct 31 14:01:35 It was borne of love and desire, that's all Oct 31 14:02:37 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:02:40 Yes, exactly Oct 31 14:03:36 Do you need me to reassure you that you doing that to me and him doing that to her because she reminded him of me is entirely world's apart? Oct 31 14:04:26 * Morgan shakes his head, looking round Oct 31 14:04:33 No... I know I'm nothing like him Oct 31 14:04:42 Absolutely not Oct 31 14:04:56 *it's all still peaceful* Oct 31 14:05:40 Were you concerned I would wish to wait a long time before trying it again? Oct 31 14:06:09 I wouldn't have been surprised Oct 31 14:06:18 Why, my love? Oct 31 14:06:25 * Morgan shrugs Oct 31 14:06:37 Because it is... its probably quite frowned upon Oct 31 14:06:49 * MollyK nods Oct 31 14:06:56 I've no doubt it is Oct 31 14:07:37 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:08:03 You said about the pillow... I thought about using a chair like we did at Edwards Oct 31 14:08:18 Oh god... mmhmm. Oct 31 14:09:37 That appeals to you? Oct 31 14:09:45 Very very much Oct 31 14:10:01 Despite how... ummm... forceful I was then? Oct 31 14:10:10 * MollyK shudders Oct 31 14:10:20 Mmmmmhmmm Oct 31 14:11:05 That appeals to you more? Oct 31 14:12:03 Not necessarily more, but a great deal Oct 31 14:12:35 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:12:36 Alright Oct 31 14:13:32 What about you, my love? Oct 31 14:14:07 I was just thinking about... depth... Oct 31 14:14:24 * MollyK exhales slowly Oct 31 14:14:32 It would be very very deep Oct 31 14:14:37 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:15:18 That appeals to you? Oct 31 14:15:35 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:15:37 Yes, it does Oct 31 14:15:54 * MollyK nods Oct 31 14:16:00 Alright Oct 31 14:16:14 That troubles you? Oct 31 14:16:30 No, I am trying to calm myself a little Oct 31 14:16:57 Oh? Oct 31 14:17:57 The thought of you imagining me in that position, imagining the extra depth... mmm... arousing. Oct 31 14:18:41 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:18:44 Alright Oct 31 14:19:23 Is that displeasing? Oct 31 14:21:39 No! No not at all Oct 31 14:22:19 * MollyK nods Oct 31 14:22:34 You have not told Heinzharold? Oct 31 14:23:32 No, not at all Oct 31 14:23:53 Are you going to? Oct 31 14:25:05 I don't think so... you wish to tell Inga? I know it is important for you to share things Oct 31 14:25:32 * MollyK shakes her head Oct 31 14:25:50 I do not think she would understand how I could, because of Elsie Oct 31 14:27:08 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:27:11 That makes sense Oct 31 14:27:44 And I do not think I could adequately explain why it is so far detached from that, why it feels so very good Oct 31 14:31:09 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:31:13 Probably best not then Oct 31 14:31:18 * MollyK nods Oct 31 14:31:22 I might explain the Bubbie Rubby Rub to her though *she giggles* Oct 31 14:31:42 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:31:49 I'm sure HeinzHarold would be grateful Oct 31 14:31:53 * MollyK nods Oct 31 14:32:26 I'll ask her afterwards whether it was enjoyable for them, shall I? Oct 31 14:33:47 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:33:48 If you like Oct 31 14:34:15 You would not rather find out for yourself? Oct 31 14:34:22 well... yes... Oct 31 14:34:42 You'd better ask Heinzharold instead then *she giggles* Oct 31 14:35:57 Like that is it? Oct 31 14:36:22 Are you playing with me? Oct 31 14:36:45 Little bit maybe Oct 31 14:37:09 I was only playing with you. Of course I would do that for you if you wish Oct 31 14:37:47 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:39:24 Is that a yes please? Oct 31 14:39:37 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:39:38 Yes it is Oct 31 14:40:41 However will you choose what I am to do to please you tonight, when there is so much available to you, mon petit chou? Oct 31 14:42:04 I would've thought you would want a respite from my attentions, at least for your backside Oct 31 14:42:51 I never want a respite from your attentions, and I would magic away any tenderness before we began Oct 31 14:44:32 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:44:36 I will consider my options then Oct 31 14:45:07 Mmmhmmm... at length? Oct 31 14:45:28 Depends on the angle really Oct 31 14:45:42 I... I do not get it Oct 31 14:46:28 At length... Oct 31 14:46:55 Yes? Oct 31 14:47:25 Well, length... depth... Oct 31 14:47:42 What is long and deep? Oct 31 14:48:07 Nevermind blossom, I was being crude Oct 31 14:48:26 * MollyK giggles Oct 31 14:48:29 I know Oct 31 14:50:19 I see Oct 31 14:52:40 I was toying with you verbally... Oct 31 14:52:55 Uh huh Oct 31 14:53:19 Because I cannot be doing so physically... Oct 31 14:53:57 Maybe tonight... that reminds me... Claudia has offered to let us use the room she had last time... Oct 31 14:54:12 * MollyK nods Oct 31 14:54:21 If that is what you want, my love Oct 31 14:55:14 They are all concerned that we may have difficulty being back there Oct 31 14:56:30 I had not really thought of it. There is so much going on... Oct 31 14:56:53 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:56:55 aye Oct 31 14:57:31 Are you concerned? Oct 31 14:57:51 * Morgan shrugs Oct 31 14:57:57 I'm expecting my nightmares to be worse Oct 31 14:58:28 * MollyK nods Oct 31 14:58:46 We are only staying tonight thankfully Oct 31 14:59:08 * Morgan nods Oct 31 14:59:09 Aye Oct 31 15:01:24 /me takes a long deep breath Oct 31 15:01:36 Last night was not good? Oct 31 15:02:07 Not really, no Oct 31 15:02:54 Would you tell me, now that I think we have laid the other matter to rest? Oct 31 15:03:54 * Morgan nods, looking round before telling her Oct 31 15:05:37 Oh liebling... Oct 31 15:07:10 It was quite brutal Oct 31 15:07:52 * MollyK nods Oct 31 15:08:04 Poor Edward Oct 31 15:09:30 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:09:31 Indeed Oct 31 15:10:35 He married my cousin instead... Oct 31 15:11:10 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:11:12 yes Oct 31 15:13:48 That's strange Oct 31 15:15:06 Do you need to speak with Edward tonight? Oct 31 15:15:50 No... I've already seen how desperately sorry he is Oct 31 15:16:00 * Morgan looks round Oct 31 15:16:09 We are strong now... Oct 31 15:17:20 * MollyK nods Oct 31 15:17:34 I am glad you did not have to endure it that way Oct 31 15:17:51 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:17:55 Me too Oct 31 15:18:13 And Claudia and DeeDee... surprising Oct 31 15:18:29 not... particularly Oct 31 15:18:36 No? Oct 31 15:19:17 They both understand trauma... if Claudia chose to tell him hers, I am sure they would bond over it... Oct 31 15:19:50 Does that leave you in a predicament? Oct 31 15:20:01 I don't think so, why? Oct 31 15:20:21 Should you tell her it was an alternate path? Oct 31 15:21:45 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Oct 31 15:27:20 * MollyK has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Oct 31 15:37:51 * Morgan (~mads@iMac-2.lan) has joined Oct 31 15:38:24 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Oct 31 15:38:42 [15:07:19] MollyK: Should you tell her it was an alternate path? Oct 31 15:39:56 * Morgan shrugs Oct 31 15:39:58 I don't know Oct 31 15:40:44 * MollyK nods Oct 31 15:40:53 It might be too painful Oct 31 15:41:28 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:41:29 indeed Oct 31 15:41:55 Goodness knows it has often been so for us Oct 31 15:42:10 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:42:11 Aye Oct 31 15:43:16 Strange that Seb was there but you had no reason to be concerned Oct 31 15:44:32 You hadn't met yet... and given that I am to expect a further dream in that, I imagine there will be... issues Oct 31 15:45:04 It does rather sound that we had already made ourselves an issue! Oct 31 15:49:51 *there's a squirrel suddenly crosses their path unexpectedly* Oct 31 15:50:23 * Morgan watches the squirrel before looking towards where it came from Oct 31 15:50:32 Mmm... Oct 31 15:50:41 *there's nothing to see* Oct 31 15:51:19 I would have liked you to have dreamt again where I was widowed from John and we made love in the hot house Oct 31 15:51:32 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:51:42 Unfortunately it is not something I have any say in Oct 31 15:52:05 No... I like the dreams where you awake in need of me, it's nice Oct 31 15:52:46 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:53:13 I am still glad I have not dreamt of Seb that way Oct 31 15:53:21 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:53:23 As am I Oct 31 15:53:40 It would feel disloyal Oct 31 15:53:58 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:54:01 Would you tell me? Oct 31 15:54:13 Would you want me to? Oct 31 15:54:45 I don't know... but I don't like the idea of you keeping it from me either Oct 31 15:55:00 * MollyK nods Oct 31 15:55:27 And if I awoke mid climax as I sometimes do, that would be difficult for you Oct 31 15:55:36 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:56:25 I do not know what I would do then Oct 31 15:56:42 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:57:36 I would, no doubt, wish to be intimate with you as I always do, but... Oct 31 15:58:01 But... Oct 31 15:58:26 I'm not sure either of us would find that comfortable? Oct 31 15:59:32 * Morgan nods Oct 31 15:59:36 It would be difficult Oct 31 16:00:30 *when he had dreamt of making love to Dietlinde the day before Prophets Mass he had just gotten out of bed despite being hard* Oct 31 16:00:49 * MollyK sighs "it makes things rather complicated, doesn't it?" Oct 31 16:01:15 I've had it happen once Oct 31 16:01:36 Oh! You did not mention it... Oct 31 16:02:03 No... I just got out of bed and started my day Oct 31 16:02:26 * MollyK nods slowly Oct 31 16:02:42 Alright, my love. Maybe that is what we will just do Oct 31 16:03:04 There are two differences of course Oct 31 16:03:28 Well yes, of course, liebling Oct 31 16:03:52 I have never woken mid orgasm, either... Oct 31 16:05:39 I believe you said almost, once when we were on the Rose? I believe we were making love on the carpet during an opera in Freiburg? Or was it when you were away and it was so close that you needed to finish it? Oct 31 16:06:10 Both... but thats as close as it got Oct 31 16:06:25 * MollyK nods Oct 31 16:06:37 And the other difference? Oct 31 16:07:08 She was my wife and I loved her... those feelings were already ingrained before the dreams started Oct 31 16:07:39 * MollyK nods Oct 31 16:07:46 Yes Oct 31 16:09:14 I... It's just something we have to live with Oct 31 16:09:19 * Morgan nods Oct 31 16:09:22 I suppose so Oct 31 16:09:36 * MollyK nods quietly Oct 31 16:12:57 *after a few minutes or so, she says "Are you planning to see the Nieblungen?" Oct 31 16:14:09 * Morgan nods Oct 31 16:14:14 I have some questions for them Oct 31 16:14:45 * MollyK nods Oct 31 16:14:54 Will you need me? Oct 31 16:15:01 I'll manage my love Oct 31 16:15:20 Me nods Oct 31 16:15:30 Alright, my love Oct 31 16:20:25 ACTION doesn't come back to this topic, and it isn't too long before the Fischler outskirts are in view. The town of Fischler seems much more subdued in January than in August, but they pass familiar places on the way. Stef and Fuchs get out at home, and invite them to join them for evening service at the church at six. ((Agrees or disagrees?))

The town of Fischler seems much more subdued in January than in August, but they pass familiar places on the way. Stef and Fuchs get out at home, and invite them to join them for evening service at the church at six. ((Agrees or disagrees?)) Oct 31 22:49:50 * Morgan agrees, thanking them Oct 31 22:51:24 *They ride back to Faulk’s too close to the others for any private conversation* Oct 31 22:53:09 **The long drive way of the house that was at the centre of great drama in the summer seems to pass quickly. The stables are fully rebuilt. They all alight, grooms waiting to take the horses. Oct 31 22:54:16 * Morgan dismounts, handing the horses reins to a groom Oct 31 22:54:34 * MollyK climbs down too Oct 31 22:55:09 *There's much stretching and exclamations of being glad to be off the road Oct 31 22:55:44 looks relaxed, looking over the building when Faulk comes to her side and says "It was finished sometime ago. It's bigger and better than before". HH is stood beside Morgan, watching him sidelong, as is Claudia. Oct 31 22:56:10 * Morgan looks round Oct 31 22:56:17 Bit of fireproofing by any chance? Oct 31 22:56:55 F: *he laughs* Yes, it has been made with that in mind Oct 31 22:57:10 ACTION smiles at Faulk "It looks good, your Grace. Might I take a look?" Oct 31 22:57:11 *Faulk nods, waving her in, and Molly goes* Oct 31 22:57:11 HH, quietly: Need t' tie you to the fence, just incase y' start getting ideas? Oct 31 22:57:11 * Received a CTCP from MollyK (to #7thsea) Oct 31 22:57:12 * Morgan blinks Oct 31 22:57:36 Sorry, your Grace, I hadn't actually intended to say that out loud Oct 31 22:58:25 *Faulk nods, looking towards the house* Oct 31 22:58:47 HH: $mind elsewhere, was it?$ Oct 31 22:59:24 $might have been$ Don't wait on us, your Grace, I imagine you're keen to get settled back home Oct 31 23:00:02 *Faulk's staff are lined up, and he sees Mia and Katherine, two of the maids he gave money to waiting in the line-up.* F: Indeed I am. Ask the staff for anything you need Oct 31 23:00:51 * Morgan nods Oct 31 23:00:55 Thank you your Grace Oct 31 23:01:22 *Faulk goes. All his staff greet him and bow or curtsey. He overhears the butler tell Faulk that this evening Sabine is due for dinner* Oct 31 23:02:56 * Morgan mutters Oct 31 23:02:58 joy Oct 31 23:03:43 * MollyK is now known as HH Oct 31 23:03:48 Whosat then? Oct 31 23:04:36 she's... challenging Oct 31 23:05:33 * HH shrugs Oct 31 23:05:47 That a problem? Oct 31 23:06:25 *Varick and Inga follow Molly into the stables* Oct 31 23:07:03 She's snooty, but not in a snobbish way... she thinks everyone is beneath her Oct 31 23:07:39 She would hurt you just to see your reaction Oct 31 23:07:48 The fuck? Why? Oct 31 23:08:01 She enjoys it Oct 31 23:08:26 Huh. Each to their own, I guess. Oct 31 23:08:47 * Morgan nods, looking at the stables Oct 31 23:09:06 C, smugly: Sometimes not being gentry or better is so good. Oct 31 23:09:49 * Morgan chews the side of his thumb Oct 31 23:09:58 * HH looks around before saying "Hey Claudia, you dropped this..." when she looks to him he's flipping her off Oct 31 23:11:03 C: Idiot. *HH watches Morgan* HH: Are my lil darlin an' Varick cramping yer style? Oct 31 23:11:34 I was actually thinking of how she's going to react to your lil darlin Oct 31 23:12:04 Lays a finger on 'er and I'll break hers. Oct 31 23:12:47 She won't... if she's true to form, she'll push her, upset her. Oct 31 23:13:23 * HH frowns "I don't like anyone being unkind t' my girl" Oct 31 23:13:33 I know man Oct 31 23:13:48 She do something t' Molly last time? Oct 31 23:14:13 Mostly just prying, needling... Oct 31 23:14:31 I'll warn Inga Oct 31 23:14:50 *Claudia is keeping an eye on Morgan's mannerisms* Oct 31 23:15:22 * Morgan nods slowly Oct 31 23:15:30 Have her talk to Molly, get an idea of what she's like Oct 31 23:15:45 Will do. Oct 31 23:15:59 [Our stall wall has been moved...] Oct 31 23:16:10 [Thats not acceptable] Oct 31 23:16:23 * Morgan nods, checking the time Oct 31 23:16:40 [I'll tell His Grace it needs to go back so you can have me against it next time, hmm?] Oct 31 23:16:51 *it is half after two* Oct 31 23:17:34 [ I think that would be reasonable. Do you need me right now? I'm thinking of going to see the Nieblungen] Oct 31 23:18:05 [Not when the wall has gone anyway! No, it's fine my love] Oct 31 23:18:42 I'm going to see someone Oct 31 23:19:10 * HH nods "Guess that makes me in charge then" Oct 31 23:19:31 C scoffs: No way. He would make me second in command, not you Oct 31 23:20:13 Horseshit. Oct 31 23:20:28 C: Is not! Tell him, Morgan. Oct 31 23:20:56 * Morgan looks over at them before fixing on HeinzHarold Oct 31 23:21:01 Ever seen a Nieblungen? Oct 31 23:21:14 No, course not. Oct 31 23:21:40 Wanna? Oct 31 23:21:45 Yeah! Oct 31 23:22:17 * Morgan looks at Claudia Oct 31 23:22:29 You know the lay of the land, keep em safe Oct 31 23:22:43 *Claudia grins at HH* Oct 31 23:23:10 * HH looks at Morgan "Ohhh I see what you did there! Tha's clever for you" Oct 31 23:24:09 I'll just point out that you've both admitted I'm the leader... come on man Oct 31 23:24:31 * HH follows on Oct 31 23:24:56 Seems like yer a bit on edge man... summat goin' on? Oct 31 23:25:28 Sabine puts me on edge, thats all... I dunno if they'll talk with you with me, but... we'll try Oct 31 23:25:49 If not I'll fuck off. Just wanna see 'em Oct 31 23:26:05 maybe Oct 31 23:26:13 * Morgan heads towards their compound at a decent pace Oct 31 23:26:49 *It's all as it was. A Nieblungen is waiting for them outside the gate Oct 31 23:27:15 * Morgan bows his head a little Oct 31 23:28:00 *It bows. HH is openly staring* Oct 31 23:31:36 I have some questions I'd like you to answer Oct 31 23:32:31 N: You ((singular)) may enter Oct 31 23:32:59 He is my ally Oct 31 23:33:35 N: We know who he is Oct 31 23:34:13 * HH pats Morgan's back "It's fine, man" Oct 31 23:35:53 * Morgan takes a couple of steps back Oct 31 23:36:03 You need me... I need him. Oct 31 23:36:45 $what are you doing?$ Oct 31 23:37:16 * Morgan watches the Nieblungen Oct 31 23:38:04 *The Nibelungen doesn't respond for a few moments* He can come into the compound but not into the Mine. Oct 31 23:38:22 * Morgan nods Oct 31 23:38:23 Thank you Oct 31 23:39:20 *They're soon inside. HH looks around but keeps quiet. Other Nibelungen peek out from doorways Oct 31 23:39:34 * HH is now known as Nieblungen Oct 31 23:40:50 We saw off the threat on our journey to Graben... can you tell us anything more about why that had to happen? Oct 31 23:41:51 We saw the Jormungandr, you were not supposed to die. Oct 31 23:42:30 That didn't really go to plan... Oct 31 23:43:11 We did not see the path where Molly left the shield. We gave you the shield to stay safe from dangers. Oct 31 23:43:20 * Morgan nods Oct 31 23:43:48 And thats why we need as much information as we can get going into situations, to account for the things you do not anticipate Oct 31 23:44:20 Much of the paths is still unseeable Oct 31 23:44:34 It has not improved? Oct 31 23:44:44 A small amount only Oct 31 23:45:00 Some progress then... do you know what is in the Sudlache? Oct 31 23:45:09 Many things. Oct 31 23:45:28 Monsters? Oct 31 23:45:33 Some Oct 31 23:45:50 Ah, plural. Alright then... can you see my nightmares again? Oct 31 23:46:12 Some Oct 31 23:47:00 Also an improvement. Last time we were here, you... adjusted peoples memories... Oct 31 23:47:10 Yes Oct 31 23:47:29 One of those people has dreams of it, what really happened... Oct 31 23:47:48 That should be impossible. Oct 31 23:48:09 You will not try again with that person... I need their assistance Oct 31 23:48:19 Which person? Oct 31 23:48:26 Do I have your word? Oct 31 23:48:56 pause yes Oct 31 23:49:05 My brother Oct 31 23:49:41 * Nieblungen briefly nods Oct 31 23:50:27 If we are to succeed, I need allies, people I can rely on... Oct 31 23:50:49 You will have them. Oct 31 23:51:10 You will not interfere with those I choose to inform? Oct 31 23:53:21 It is a risk that you will confide in people who have bad motives Oct 31 23:54:10 My circle is small... I want to be sure you will not interfere if I tell my closest friends Oct 31 23:56:22 The woman Claudia, Heinzharold twelfth of his name, Sebastian of the Sea may all be told. Oct 31 23:56:35 My brother? Oct 31 23:57:38 * Nieblungen nods "Edward the penitent may be told" Oct 31 23:58:09 * Morgan nods Oct 31 23:58:24 Are you aware of our change of heart regarding the wait for children? Oct 31 23:58:31 We are Oct 31 23:59:06 interesting... Are you planning to interfere to make it happen sooner than nature would intend? Oct 31 23:59:13 No
