He saw this view last when they left to go to Avalon. They'd only left Edward behind by a few days then, after having a big breakthrough in the churchyard in Starke.

Jan 21 19:47:56 I'm not sure... bit worried it'll remind me too much of the cast Jan 21 19:48:33 * HH nods Jan 21 19:48:50 Just go in when they're both cleaned up? Jan 21 19:49:01 maybe Jan 21 19:49:22 Sure they'll be with each other any'ow Jan 21 19:50:04 True... *he shakes himself* Jan 21 19:50:19 Still struggle with it? Jan 21 19:50:42 With what?

Jan 21 20:00:40 * Morgan shrugs Jan 21 20:01:33 We'll see I suppose... though I imagine father will be despatched to keep me occupied Jan 21 20:03:09 * HH chuckles Jan 21 20:03:16 He'll be worse than you! Jan 21 20:04:18 Hence me being occupied Jan 21 20:04:43 * HH nods Jan 21 20:05:23 Scary shit, man. But our ladies are pretty strong Jan 21 20:06:40 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:06:49 And of course we'll need to keep Varick calm... Jan 21 20:09:12 * HH nods Jan 21 20:09:25 He's gon' be excited, already loves the babe Jan 21 20:09:51 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:11:09 Aye... he and Florrie were talking about having babes nearby Jan 21 20:11:35 * HH nods Jan 21 20:11:51 Dunno who's more broody, you or 'im Jan 21 20:13:49 Me, I reckon. Jan 21 20:15:00 * HH nods Jan 21 20:15:14 Gettin' bad now? Jan 21 20:15:25 Has been for a while really Jan 21 20:15:40 * HH nods Jan 21 20:16:27 E'er since that fate witch said Inga's gon' give me four and be safe, it's gotten into my brain like worms Jan 21 20:18:49 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:20:42 Its like... much as I enjoy travelling, putting things In place, and I -love- sailing... I just... I wanna get back and start having children... Jan 21 20:21:03 * HH nods, patting his arm Jan 21 20:21:37 Just hope once y' doin' that y' won't be wishin' you were sailin' and adventurin' instead Jan 21 20:27:29 Different sort of adventure Jan 21 20:29:10 * HH nods Jan 21 20:29:40 How's Molly feel 'bout that? Jan 21 20:30:24 She's excited to get our family started Jan 21 20:32:48 E'en if it means givin' up all this? *he waves his hand to the horizon ahead where the sun is moving lower as the edge of the cliffs get closer* Jan 21 20:34:15 Reckon so. Jan 21 20:34:22 * Morgan looks at him Jan 21 20:34:26 * HH nods Jan 21 20:34:48 I know from experience the way children will change me... I've no doubt it'll change her too Jan 21 20:35:49 * HH looks at him Jan 21 20:35:54 Like what? Jan 21 20:37:34 Hard to describe... like... things like this... it doesn't matter so much anymore... I became calmer, kinder... which, considering where I started, is really saying something... Jan 21 20:37:58 Yeah, y' got more mellow Jan 21 20:39:17 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:40:05 Suited you, man Jan 21 20:40:27 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:41:00 This time will be a bit different, with the responsibilities but... I hope to be -much- more... calm... than I am now Jan 21 20:41:48 Reck'n it'll bring yer birds home to roost? Jan 21 20:42:34 * Morgan shrugs Jan 21 20:42:37 I dunno man Jan 21 20:43:19 * HH nods Jan 21 20:43:51 Bit like a last jolly before being posted somewhere, ain't it? Jan 21 20:44:35 I suppose you could see it like that. I know Molly won't stop me sailing but... I'm not sure my desire to would be strong enough to want to leave Jan 21 20:44:48 * HH nods Jan 21 20:45:47 Yeah. Gonna make th' best of it while I can, b'fore my lil darlin is increasin' an' nestin'. Like a long honeymoon Jan 21 20:46:27 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:47:05 Yeah. I'm thinkin' that I'll probably spend some time with my father, try to get some more insight from him into ruling Jan 21 20:47:50 * HH nods Jan 21 20:48:24 Build some fences. Get some chooks, plant some gardens. Jan 21 20:49:14 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:49:32 Got my father and David looking into the best places in the grounds to have your cottage Jan 21 20:50:45 * HH nods Jan 21 20:51:09 Be a few months o' building Jan 21 20:51:31 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:51:52 Told em not to get over excited and start work on it. Figured you'd want to lay the first stones yourself Jan 21 20:52:37 * HH nods Jan 21 20:53:03 Yeah... my Granda did that when m' Da built our 'ouse Jan 21 20:53:38 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:53:56 * HH looks at him Jan 21 20:54:10 I'da liked my Da to do it f' me Jan 21 20:54:35 Lay the first stones? Jan 21 20:54:57 * HH nods Jan 21 20:55:05 * Morgan nods Jan 21 20:55:15 If it was in my power, man... Jan 21 20:55:35 Yeah... so I guess you'll have t' do the honours Jan 21 20:56:37 * Morgan looks surprised Jan 21 20:56:38 What?! Jan 21 20:57:17 I ain't got my Da, makes sense tha' my brother stands in, right? Jan 21 20:58:00 * Morgan half blinks a few times before wiping a tear from his cheek Jan 21 20:58:16 You sure? 'S not the same as a HeinzHarold laying the stone... Jan 21 20:58:37 Not yer fault you were born in the wrong family, man Jan 21 20:59:47 * Morgan laughs suddenly Jan 21 21:00:32 Wasn' even one o' my best lines! Jan 21 21:01:22 Told my father that during one of our arguments... Jan 21 21:01:49 Bet he loved tha'! Jan 21 21:02:05 Told me your ma would've paddled my hide Jan 21 21:02:17 * HH laughs Jan 21 21:02:32 Yeah, but you'da got used to it Jan 21 21:03:22 * Morgan nods Jan 21 21:03:24 maybe Jan 21 21:03:35 Didn' do me any harm Jan 21 21:04:17 No, you're absolutely well adjusted and normal Jan 21 21:04:31 * HH nods Jan 21 21:04:45 Great taste in women Jan 21 21:05:04 Can't really argue with that Jan 21 21:06:20 Dubious taste in friends Jan 21 21:10:04 * Morgan nods Jan 21 21:10:10 Can't argue with that either Jan 21 21:10:32 * HH nods Jan 21 21:10:40 You'll do it then, yeah? Jan 21 21:10:49 Of course, yeah Jan 21 21:10:55 It'll be my honour Jan 21 21:11:02 * HH nods, smiling Jan 21 21:11:16 Thanks, man Jan 21 21:11:42 Was talking to Molly about maybe making some furniture... a table... and, if I can get my head around it and you don't object... maybe a rocking chair for our girls? Jan 21 21:12:51 To sit in together? Jan 21 21:13:23 No, man, like, one each... for when they're feeding... Jan 21 21:13:52 * HH grins Jan 21 21:14:09 That's really touchin', man Jan 21 21:15:58 * Morgan shrugs slightly, looking at the horizon Jan 21 21:16:10 Every chance one side will rock faster than the other and it'll spin her in circles... Jan 21 21:17:47 Horseshit. You're meticulous even if it doesn' come easy Jan 21 21:19:14 Built a chair for the kitchen in my cottage... made the back so it had that curve so it wasn't bolt upright... curved it too much and the bloody thing was practically reclined Jan 21 21:20:34 Sounds like a good strategy for a nursin' chair Jan 21 21:20:58 * Morgan shakes his head Jan 21 21:21:02 Too far back Jan 21 21:21:43 * HH shrugs Jan 21 21:22:02 Best get wood in Castile an' make a start then Jan 21 21:22:24 Gonn' be a long while before the cottage is ready. Jan 21 21:22:53 Yeah, but might not be that long b'fore a babe comes along Jan 21 21:23:36 For you, I suppose so... Jan 21 21:24:25 Got all m' fingers crossed. Not f' lack of effort, surprising I can sit properly Jan 21 21:25:15 Draw before last, we'd been intimate before realising we could try to trigger the draw... I had to get Molly to use her magic to remove the tenderness the next morning Jan 21 21:25:59 * HH nods Jan 21 21:26:13 Remember y' sayin' three times in an hour Jan 21 21:26:23 * Morgan nods Jan 21 21:26:33 Ever tried grabbing a fast moving rope? Jan 21 21:26:48 O'viously Jan 21 21:27:08 Felt like I'd done that with my... y'know... Jan 21 21:27:29 * HH laughs hard Jan 21 21:27:46 Oh man, tha's an image I don' need! Jan 21 21:27:55 * Morgan sniffs Jan 21 21:28:08 Plums felt like I'd jumped in a saddle naked from a height Jan 21 21:28:41 * HH holds on to the ropes to not fall Jan 21 21:28:55 Lucky y' didn't pop 'em Jan 21 21:29:03 * Morgan nods Jan 21 21:29:34 I agree. Jan 21 21:30:59 Tha' night with the drink where it was four... bloody 'ell Jan 21 21:31:40 Whats that expression... the mind is willing but the flesh is weak? Jan 21 21:31:46 * HH nods Jan 21 21:31:59 Doesn't apply to the draw, incidentally Jan 21 21:32:43 Yeah, but after four it was like eatin' Prophets Mass dinner three meals a day for a week straight... sometimes a man jus' needs some snuggles Jan 21 21:33:06 So you got your own back for four hours? Jan 21 21:34:13 More your style than mine *he grins* Jan 21 21:35:05 * Morgan nods Jan 21 21:35:19 I tell you I spoke to Sorgi about my thinking I'm a monster? Jan 21 21:35:55 Yeah. He said y' were wrong just like y' usually are about yerseld Jan 21 21:36:04 Yerself *he grins* Jan 21 21:36:34 Cracked me up... I disagree but respect your right to be wrong... Jan 21 21:37:47 * HH nods Jan 21 21:37:57 Me an' Claudia don't respect it Jan 21 21:38:31 I noticed Jan 21 21:38:55 We prefer to beat some sense inta yer thick 'ead Jan 21 21:40:25 Think its just an excuse for her to be violent to be honest Jan 21 21:40:45 * HH nods Jan 21 21:40:48 Prolly Jan 21 21:42:05 So... goats, chickens and wood Jan 21 21:42:23 * HH nods Jan 21 21:42:26 Drink Jan 21 21:43:16 Thats a given Jan 21 21:44:05 * HH nods Jan 21 21:44:26 Soon as we turn south outta this river it's new territory f' me Jan 21 21:45:05 * Morgan nods Jan 21 21:45:12 How you feeling about that? Jan 21 21:45:51 Be nice t' be experiencing summation new with my lil darlin Jan 21 21:47:53 * Morgan nods Jan 21 21:48:11 'Bout you, man?

Jan 21 21:53:10 The sea, you plank Jan 21 21:54:46 * Morgan nods, turning to look toward the sun Jan 21 21:55:24 *it's getting lower, the light thick and slow* Jan 21 21:55:30 No goin' back Jan 21 21:56:18 * Morgan shrugs Jan 21 21:56:26 Its just the sea Jan 21 21:57:23 Yeah, but here we could whip 'round, go 'come up the river. Once we're in the sea, we gonna press on til it's done Jan 21 21:58:12 You wanna get off? Jan 21 21:58:36 *he chuckles* that's what she said Jan 21 22:00:56 * Morgan rolls his eyes Jan 21 22:01:46 Nah, just makin' a point that we're goin' where no Eisen men 'ave ever gone b'fore Jan 21 22:02:54 * Morgan nods Jan 21 22:03:06 Making history Jan 21 22:04:34 Gettin' a tan... Jan 21 22:05:04 * Morgan shrugs Jan 21 22:05:07 Scars don't tan Jan 21 22:05:22 Yer gonna look like a tiger Jan 21 22:06:34 It'll look like I've kept a coat on Jan 21 22:07:55 You an' Molly, hot country with yer own house an' waterfall... no chance yer keeping yer coat on! Jan 21 22:08:15 No, but it'll -look- like that Jan 21 22:08:51 * HH nods Jan 21 22:09:05 Not havin' 'em Mollied then? Jan 21 22:09:05 Hang on... house? Jan 21 22:09:45 Yeah, 's like a ship but it don't float well Jan 21 22:10:21 Why would we have a house there with a waterfall? Jan 21 22:10:42 B'cause she's an Ambassor, man Jan 21 22:11:24 Huh... figured we'd stay on the ship Jan 21 22:11:51 * HH shrugs Jan 21 22:12:19 Might wanna take that up with yer wife an' the crown prince Jan 21 22:12:54 * Morgan shrugs Jan 21 22:12:59 Its only a couple of weeks Jan 21 22:13:13 And no... they're staying Jan 21 22:14:16 Who is stayin'? Jan 21 22:15:15 The scars Jan 21 22:15:26 * HH nods Jan 21 22:15:56 Think yer doin' the right thing Jan 21 22:16:05 * Morgan nods Jan 21 22:16:19 Its not just about me... its about what it says to Varick, to our children Jan 21 22:16:40 * HH nods Jan 21 22:16:53 Yeah, that's 'ow I see it Jan 21 22:20:02 * Morgan nods Jan 21 22:20:11 I put some thought into it after we spoke about it Jan 21 22:20:22 I'm pretty wise Jan 21 22:23:55 Definitely have you moments Jan 21 22:25:03 See, that's yer issue. Wisdom's been chasing you f' years, but you've always been that bit faster! *he grins* Jan 21 22:28:04 Only when it comes to me, man Jan 21 22:29:15 Yeah, don't really know yerself that well Jan 21 22:30:16 Reckon? Jan 21 22:30:45 Y' don't see what th' rest of us do Jan 21 22:31:20 I'd disagree but... I'd probably be lying Jan 21 22:31:32 * HH nods Jan 21 22:31:35 Yeah Jan 21 22:34:07 * HH listens as Sorgi makes a shout for him to come back to come back to work Jan 21 22:34:12 Gotta go, man Jan 21 22:34:27 * Morgan nods Jan 21 22:34:30 Aye, go on Jan 21 22:36:50 * HH climbs back down. The sails are reset ready for the changing wind and the turn that will take the sunset from the prow to starboard Jan 21 22:38:53 *he feels the ropes below him take more weight, vibration through his lower body like a spider in it's web would feel at the approaching prey Jan 21 22:39:46 * Morgan looks down Jan 21 22:40:29 *he spots red hair first, as his wife slowly and fastidiously climbs up the rigging* Jan 21 22:40:34 * HH is now known as Molly Jan 21 22:41:18 You sure you want to be up this high? Jan 21 22:41:43 * Molly looks a little nervous but gives him a cheery smile Jan 21 22:41:46 Mmhmm Jan 21 22:42:44 I can come down... Jan 21 22:42:59 * Molly shakes her head, exhaling slowly Jan 21 22:43:02 No, no Jan 21 22:43:47 * Morgan nods, watching her closely, looking ready to dive after her if she slips Jan 21 22:44:51 * Molly bites her lip with deep concentration as she ascends to his height and then very carefully turns to sit beside him Jan 21 22:47:13 Didn't expect to see you all the way up here Jan 21 22:47:46 * Molly nods, holding the ropes tightly Jan 21 22:48:06 I know, but I knew the view would be spectacular Jan 21 22:48:55 * Morgan rummages in a pocket before leaning over and looping a small rope around her wrist, then to one of the ropes running down the rigging Jan 21 22:49:15 * Molly watches him, blushing Jan 21 22:49:26 I know it's just for safety, but... Jan 21 22:49:34 But? Jan 21 22:49:55 You, tying things around my wrists brings very pleasant memories Jan 21 22:50:37 * Morgan laughs quietly Jan 21 22:50:54 We're in open waters... Jan 21 22:51:05 Yes? Jan 21 22:51:22 On our way to making history Jan 21 22:51:28 * Molly tilts her head Jan 21 22:51:55 Indeed... what country are we in...? Jan 21 22:52:49 We aren't Jan 21 22:53:20 Hmm... well, I rather think that is another place for the list, don't you? Jan 21 22:53:33 Castille? Jan 21 22:53:49 The ocean, where there is no country Jan 21 22:54:26 * Morgan nods Jan 21 22:54:37 I suppose so... we'll certainly have time given how long we'll be at sea Jan 21 22:55:51 * Molly nods Jan 21 22:56:03 Yes, we will Jan 21 22:56:34 * Molly smiles at the rope on her wrist before looking around Jan 21 22:56:41 It truly is stunning Jan 21 22:57:06 * Morgan nods Jan 21 22:57:09 Yes, it is Jan 21 22:58:11 * Molly rests her cheek to his shoulder Jan 21 22:58:20 I see why you like it here Jan 21 22:59:04 * Morgan nods Jan 21 23:00:09 I've always felt at home up here Jan 21 23:00:54 And I feel at home with you, so we fit here rather well Jan 21 23:02:09 * Morgan nods Jan 21 23:02:17 Aside from you, lets say, nervous assent Jan 21 23:02:39 I've never managed more than seven feet before Jan 21 23:03:46 No? Jan 21 23:04:29 There's never been anything tempting enough to bring me up so high before Jan 21 23:05:54 Its surprisingly common for sailors to be afraid of being up this high Jan 21 23:06:20 Really? Why? Jan 21 23:09:32 * Morgan shrugs Jan 21 23:09:55 Just is. Most of us know someone who has fallen from this height... some people are just scared fo heights Jan 21 23:10:07 * Molly nods Jan 21 23:10:33 I do not trust the clumsiness I have Jan 21 23:11:24 * Morgan nods Jan 21 23:11:27 It is a concern Jan 21 23:11:34 * Molly nods Jan 21 23:12:00 I know you would always keep me safe. I do not need to be afraid when I am with you Jan 21 23:12:51 * Morgan nods Jan 21 23:12:53 Do my best Jan 21 23:14:29 * Molly nods. She stays there at his side as they pass through the final few nautical miles as the sun sets beautifully on her side of the rigging, the pinky light making her hair and profile glow Jan 21 23:15:23 We'd best get down before it gets much darker Jan 21 23:16:26 Hmm must we? This is so lovely Jan 21 23:16:55 You don't want to be trying to pick your way down in the dark Jan 21 23:17:37 Maybe you could carry me on your back, mon petit chou Jan 21 23:19:45 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Jan 21 23:21:45 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client)
