The crew are working well, not much more daylight left Jan 10 20:07:26 * Morgan wanders to the prow, leaning against the rail Jan 10 20:09:06 *Claudia joins him* everything alright? Jan 10 20:09:13 * MollyK is now known as Claudia Jan 10 20:09:38 Worried we're fighting again? Jan 10 20:11:41 * Claudia shakes her head Jan 10 20:11:54 Just wondered why you're up here Jan 10 20:14:54 * Morgan rubs his nose Jan 10 20:15:09 just... enjoying the sailing Jan 10 20:16:28 Sure? -are- you fighting again? Jan 10 20:16:55 * Morgan points at his face Jan 10 20:17:08 Do I look like I'm stressed, like something is bothering me? Jan 10 20:18:09 You never look like much Jan 10 20:18:31 Not like I used to, no... I suppose you're right... Jan 10 20:20:35 What's it over this time? Jan 10 20:22:03 We're not fighting. Like I said, just enjoying the sailing Jan 10 20:22:50 * Claudia nods Jan 10 20:23:38 Fair enough. Getting fed up of having children climbing all over you? Jan 10 20:24:14 No, not really... I like children, be damned if I could eat a whole one though Jan 10 20:25:59 * Claudia snorts Jan 10 20:26:07 Not raw Jan 10 20:28:02 * Morgan nods Jan 10 20:28:31 HeinzHarolds finally starting to accept you won't be settling with us... think he's held onto the idea of the three of us living close by since the war Jan 10 20:29:22 * Claudia nods Jan 10 20:30:03 Maybe, one day, when we're all old and gray, but I would be bored shit Jan 10 20:30:08 Less Jan 10 20:30:30 Could make you Sherri... Jan 10 20:30:41 Sheriff... Jan 10 20:33:15 You need me for Capperlucia Jan 10 20:34:18 Shut up talking sense would you... You gonn' be alright working with Jarvie?

Its -almost- disconcerting Jan 10 20:39:12 * Claudia shrugs Jan 10 20:39:32 I could still put her on the floor if I wanted to Jan 10 20:39:48 Thats important, is it? Jan 10 20:41:42 When someone is bigger than me, yes Jan 10 20:42:05 * Morgan nods Jan 10 20:42:10 alright Jan 10 20:42:23 I've always thought she was a bit... odd Jan 10 20:43:16 Has to be, coming from your family Jan 10 20:43:30 Charming Jan 10 20:46:05 Oh come on Jan 10 20:46:49 * Morgan smiles slightly, looking out across the water Jan 10 20:47:56 She's the most normal of the bunch Jan 10 20:48:31 Not even slightly... my father takes -that- title Jan 10 20:49:35 * Claudia shrugs Jan 10 20:49:47 You're the most likeable, I guess Jan 10 20:52:10 Thanks for the glowing praise Jan 10 20:52:20 You're welcome Jan 10 20:54:41 You got command tomorrow? Jan 10 20:55:49 Yeah, in the morning Jan 10 20:56:42 Looking forward to it? Jan 10 20:57:49 * Claudia nods Jan 10 20:58:29 Yes, I am Jan 10 20:58:37 Nervous? Jan 10 20:59:19 No, why would I be? Jan 10 21:00:08 * Morgan shrugs Jan 10 21:00:14 I was... anxious as fuck Jan 10 21:02:04 * Claudia nods Jan 10 21:02:24 Better now? Jan 10 21:02:58 Uhhh... was very anxious my first command on the Rose... she's a -lot- bigger than the Star... Jan 10 21:05:16 * Claudia nods Jan 10 21:05:35 It'll be easier at sea Jan 10 21:05:51 * Morgan nods Jan 10 21:06:05 I might slightly regret my first command being mostly solo... Jan 10 21:07:32 Why? Jan 10 21:08:12 Leaving port was tight, and docking... I know I had Koen but... it was tense Jan 10 21:08:40 * Claudia shrugs Jan 10 21:08:44 Worked out fine Jan 10 21:09:02 * Morgan nods Jan 10 21:09:13 Bringing Stormdancer in as it was getting dark was friggin hard work though Jan 10 21:10:38 You did that well too. Maybe go easier on yourself for once? Jan 10 21:11:53 I did good. We all did. Jan 10 21:12:44 * Claudia smiles Jan 10 21:13:08 Now we all get chance to put some proper water behind us Jan 10 21:13:33 * Morgan nods Jan 10 21:13:38 See how fast she'll really go Jan 10 21:14:36 Fucking fast I suspect Jan 10 21:14:48 Faster than she has any right to go I think Jan 10 21:16:53 * Claudia nods Jan 10 21:17:12 It's going to be interesting Jan 10 21:17:26 * Morgan nods Jan 10 21:18:11 * Morgan takes a deep breath Jan 10 21:18:24 I've seen the future Jan 10 21:19:57 Trouble? Jan 10 21:20:26 * Morgan smiles, shaking his head Jan 10 21:20:33 Not that I've seen... Jan 10 21:21:32 Please tell me it's not me and DeeDee... Jan 10 21:22:57 -my- future... Jan 10 21:23:38 Right? Jan 10 21:24:15 I was best man at DeeDee's wedding to some violent blonde... Jan 10 21:24:57 Fuck off. *she punches him in the arm* Jan 10 21:25:05 * Morgan starts laughing Jan 10 21:25:30 Yeah, about that violent... Jan 10 21:26:20 Hell would freeze over first Jan 10 21:27:13 Lets be honest, its not the most unlikely thing to happen... but no... I saw our first child... Jan 10 21:27:23 And, I think, the second... Jan 10 21:28:03 * Claudia nods Jan 10 21:28:05 Okay Jan 10 21:28:16 And I know when Molly will be pregnant... Jan 10 21:31:23 Okay? Useful? Jan 10 21:32:07 I suppose... knowing how long we have to wait until we get what we want, kinda... I dunno, makes it seem less a pipe dream Jan 10 21:33:14 You thought there might be problems? Jan 10 21:35:05 Had no reason to... just... I dunno, when you want something but have no idea how long you'll have to wait... like Varick and chocolate cake... Jan 10 21:35:54 * Claudia nods Jan 10 21:36:11 When's it going to happen? Jan 10 21:37:43 Be pregnant in autumn Jan 10 21:38:39 * Claudia nods Jan 10 21:38:49 Congratulations Jan 10 21:40:03 thanks Jan 10 21:40:18 * Morgan sniffs Jan 10 21:40:22 Why do you follow me? Jan 10 21:41:37 * Claudia watches the water Jan 10 21:41:50 You're a decent man Jan 10 21:43:52 * Morgan turns slightly, looking at her Jan 10 21:43:57 Thats it? Jan 10 21:45:07 * Claudia shrugs"hard to explain" Jan 10 21:45:50 * Morgan speaks slowly, gently Jan 10 21:45:53 Would you try? Jan 10 21:48:06 I guess I saw a man that was worthy of being trustes Jan 10 21:48:10 Trusted Jan 10 21:49:41 * Morgan nods slowly Jan 10 21:49:51 Doesn't really explain why... Jan 10 21:50:56 You have integrity and principles Jan 10 21:52:05 but... alright... Jan 10 21:54:57 But what? Jan 10 21:55:34 Doesn' matter really Jan 10 21:58:40 Does, or you wouldn't have thought it, so come on Jan 10 22:10:20 Lots of men have integrity and principles that can be trusted. It doesn't explain why -me-... but I get its hard to explain, either because its difficult to put into words or because you're not comfortable talking about it Jan 10 22:11:04 Just felt right Jan 10 22:11:42 * Morgan nods Jan 10 22:11:45 I'll take that Jan 10 22:19:37 * Claudia nods Jan 10 22:19:45 Why did you want me to? Jan 10 22:20:44 Just wanted to understand... why you stuck with me for so long when its quite clear you need to keep moving Jan 10 22:22:04 We were moving. Then when you had Dietlinde and Jana, you and Heinzharold were settled. That's when I decided to start going away training others. I had a home, but I could move too Jan 10 22:22:53 * Morgan nods Jan 10 22:22:59 Always gonn' have a home with us Jan 10 22:23:34 Yeah. Just don't think I'll be there much Jan 10 22:24:18 * Morgan nods Jan 10 22:24:21 We'll miss you Jan 10 22:26:04 * Claudia nods Jan 10 22:26:15 I'll be on the sea somewhere Jan 10 22:26:27 * Morgan nods Jan 10 22:26:44 Where I long to be *he smiles briefly* you gonn' take a mirror? Jan 10 22:28:44 * Claudia nods Jan 10 22:29:45 Yeah, how else can I lord it over you that I'm enjoying the fresh sea breeze whilst every place you go smells of breastmilk and nappy cloths? Jan 10 22:30:41 * Morgan frowns suddenly Jan 10 22:30:57 I need to check what the Montaigne national magic is... Jan 10 22:31:56 I wonder if the mirrors will still work... Jan 10 22:32:38 * Claudia shrugs Jan 10 22:32:49 Find out this time so we know? Jan 10 22:33:44 No, you don't understand... one of the ways we'll know its all about to go to shit, the non-national magics will just stop working... Jan 10 22:34:03 * Claudia nods Jan 10 22:34:14 You got a spare mirror for Capperlucia? Jan 10 22:35:04 Uhhh, I dunno... I don't think so Jan 10 22:36:02 They have one in five people with non-national magic. They'd spot it fast Jan 10 22:36:36 * Morgan nods Jan 10 22:36:45 I was more worried that the mirrors would stop working... Jan 10 22:38:06 * Claudia nods Jan 10 22:38:18 Won't know until it happens Jan 10 22:39:25 I'll ask the Nieblungen once we're back on Eisen soil. Got a bit of time. Jan 10 22:40:35 * Claudia nods Jan 10 22:40:53 It'll be warm when we get home too. Jan 10 22:42:22 * Morgan shrugs Jan 10 22:43:43 Can't say that bothers me really Jan 10 22:44:06 No, just the next week or so before winter is over for us Jan 10 22:44:49 * Morgan smiles slightly Jan 10 22:44:54 Aye... not that the cold bothers me Jan 10 22:46:03 * Claudia nods Jan 10 22:46:12 It's going to be hot there Jan 10 22:46:28 That's going to suck Jan 10 22:47:51 * Claudia nods Jan 10 22:48:25 Half-naked people everywhere Jan 10 22:48:45 HeinzHarolds gonn' have his legs out Jan 10 22:49:16 * Claudia makes a retching noise Jan 10 22:49:53 * Morgan nods Jan 10 22:49:54 quite Jan 10 22:51:23 And you Jan 10 22:52:08 We'll see Jan 10 22:54:01 Lots of bubbies as well no doubt Jan 10 22:54:51 * Morgan glances at her Jan 10 22:54:58 I imagine so... Jan 10 22:55:33 He's going to be a nuisance Jan 10 22:55:45 * Morgan nods Jan 10 22:55:53 More than usual, you mean Jan 10 22:57:49 * Claudia nods Jan 10 22:58:18 And worse, he'll be hanging around to see if I'm lookin Jan 10 22:58:43 Figured you'd be off being important, what you with being a woman n all Jan 10 23:00:56 * Claudia shrugs Jan 10 23:01:37 I'm just a sailor and a fighter there. I'm not unique when all women are trained to fight Jan 10 23:02:47 No, but you're going to be dealing with them in the long term... might be worth getting to know the people you'll be dealing with Jan 10 23:03:45 * Claudia nods Jan 10 23:03:48 I'll try Jan 10 23:04:16 * Morgan nods Jan 10 23:04:35 I'll mention it to Molly and Sigfried, see what we can come up with Jan 10 23:05:10 * Claudia nods Jan 10 23:05:11 Yeah Jan 10 23:06:22 * Morgan nods, looking out at the water Jan 10 23:06:41 Right, I'm gonn' go get some coffee, spend some time with the rest of my family Jan 10 23:07:27 Yeah. I am happy for you, about the baby. Not my thing, but I'm glad Jan 10 23:08:37 * Morgan nods, smiling Jan 10 23:08:51 If not before, I'll see you in the morning... Jan 10 23:09:19 * Claudia nods Jan 10 23:09:23 Have a good watch Jan 10 23:09:44 * Morgan inclines his head before heading below deck Jan 10 23:13:44 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)
