**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Feb 26 00:00:25 2023 Feb 26 00:00:25 I'm supposed to tiptoe around you for fear of jeopardising trade negotiations Feb 26 00:02:47 That would be foolish. The issues are separate. I will not hamper negotiations because of our discussions on this matter, just as I will be give unequal favour for my mind being returned. Does that seem fair to you? Feb 26 00:03:02 Will not give* Feb 26 00:06:41 Interesting. Alright... I believe because of numerous factors, Amir will end up feeling ostracised, pushed out. I believe he will feel excluded because he is not -your- child *he points at Xsarlac*, that he will feel the odd one out when compared to his five -wanted- siblings. Feb 26 00:07:48 I think that those things are possible, thought I intend to work hard to prevent them Feb 26 00:08:38 You'll be busy reintegrating into running your country... Feb 26 00:10:36 Reestablishing my rule and getting up to date with what has occurred in my absence will indeed by a priority in the few weeks and months, yes. I am the Queen. It isn't something I can delegate Feb 26 00:11:51 * Morgan nods Feb 26 00:11:59 You hold Zareens memories? Feb 26 00:13:03 They are quite hazy, and most of the smaller things have been lost Feb 26 00:14:09 What she wanted most for Amir... is that he be loved. Feb 26 00:15:36 I do love him Feb 26 00:16:22 As she did? With the greatest of respect, I'm not sure Xsarlac will ever be able to. Feb 26 00:19:12 X: That is a possibility. I am finding it difficult that his father took advantage of my wife when she was incapable of responding normally. I was also ready to stop growing our family when ours youngest was born ten years ago Feb 26 00:20:44 * Morgan nods Feb 26 00:21:18 Now... I tell the truth if I have any damn choice in the matter... but I'm not always honest... you understand the difference... Feb 26 00:22:24 Yes. It is the different between telling everything, and telling something but never falsely Feb 26 00:23:58 So let me be honest... Molly and I, we love Amir. We don't just care for him, we -love- him. There is no chance of his ever feeling unwanted compared to siblings, and there is no difficulty in his fathering for me. We want very much to take him in. Feb 26 00:26:53 I appreciate your honesty. Amir is my child. That is something sacred in our culture. I love him. But I will consider this situation Feb 26 00:27:32 Amir was -Zareens- son. Feb 26 00:29:03 He was grown in my body and born from it Feb 26 00:29:42 * Morgan shrugs Feb 26 00:30:13 Even so. You are a different person. Feb 26 00:30:57 I will take that into consideration Feb 26 00:32:33 * Morgan watches her for a moment, his face completely blank before nodding slightly Feb 26 00:32:34 Very well Feb 26 00:33:19 I will have answer for you by this time tomorrow morning Feb 26 00:34:05 * Morgan nods slightly Feb 26 00:34:31 Later... I'll arrange for the beds to be lashed together. I assume you would normally share a bed to sleep Feb 26 00:35:21 Thank you, we would appreciate that Feb 26 00:35:39 * Morgan nods, leaving the room and closing the door behind him Feb 26 00:36:14 *he hears nothing from them* Feb 26 00:36:35 * Morgan slowly makes his way back to his cabin Feb 26 00:41:48 * Betuana is now known as Molly Feb 26 00:43:13 * Molly is carrying Amir on her hip, feigning not being able to find Varick "where is he, lammchen? Is under the.... cushions?!" Her sudden movement and word makes the baby laugh Feb 26 00:44:43 * Morgan watches her for a moment Feb 26 00:49:17 * Molly lifts the baby up "I know, is he on top of the bookshelf? No? Are you sure, sweet boy? Just dust, hmm?" He squeals excitedly about being up high* Feb 26 00:49:41 * Morgan looks round Feb 26 00:50:13 *Inga is likely hiding with Varick somewhere, but he can't see them Feb 26 00:51:36 * Morgan very quietly heads back out, going up on deck Feb 26 00:51:54 * Molly is now known as HH Feb 26 00:52:04 * HH is at the prow with a spyglass Feb 26 00:52:41 * Morgan moves nearer him, looking out in the same direction Feb 26 00:53:07 Nottalot t' see, man Feb 26 00:53:43 Wouldn't have thought so. What you looking for? Feb 26 00:54:04 Anything Feb 26 00:54:29 Why? Feb 26 00:55:02 Tha's m' job right now Feb 26 00:55:21 * Morgan nods Feb 26 00:55:21 I see Feb 26 00:55:54 Y' need me? Feb 26 00:56:29 Only always. I'm angry with you. Feb 26 00:56:56 Okay cool, I'll let cap'n know an' we can go row Feb 26 00:57:48 We're not going to row. I want you to understand why I'm angry. Then what I -really- want is to get past it Feb 26 00:58:13 * HH nods, putting the spyglass on his shoulder Feb 26 00:58:18 Go on Feb 26 00:58:41 You wanted me to violate my principles. It wouldn't matter if it weren't you. Feb 26 00:59:26 I wanted to get this shit locked down before we get a mutiny or men throwin' themselves overboard Feb 26 01:00:10 In a twisted world, imagine that required you sleeping with someone other than your wife... Feb 26 01:00:50 * HH looks grim Feb 26 01:00:53 Yeah Feb 26 01:01:34 And all I've got to say about it is 'sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do'. How angry you going to be with me? Feb 26 01:02:01 I'd be pretty angry with you Feb 26 01:02:36 I'd be asking you to betray a principle thats a core part of you, knowing how important that is to you... Feb 26 01:03:13 * HH nods Feb 26 01:04:15 * Morgan nods Feb 26 01:04:36 Ok... you understand why I'm angry. Can we move past it now? Feb 26 01:04:47 * HH nods Feb 26 01:04:49 Yep Feb 26 01:04:53 * Morgan nods Feb 26 01:05:27 I wasn't trying to punish you. I shut myself off so that we wouldn't fight. Its not ideal, but its a step in the right direction from how I was Feb 26 01:05:44 * HH nods, opening his arms Feb 26 01:06:30 * Morgan hugs him hard Feb 26 01:06:50 * HH hugs back, pressing his hands in Feb 26 01:07:31 Right... I'll let you get back to work, don't want to miss spotting some more sea Feb 26 01:07:53 Saw a fish half an hour ago Feb 26 01:09:12 * Morgan nods Feb 26 01:09:23 Be in shark territory soon Feb 26 01:09:55 Oh yeah, Thursday for you, ain't it? Feb 26 01:10:23 Hmmm? Feb 26 01:11:06 Shark week. Euphemism for her course Feb 26 01:12:08 Oh... yeah. Herbs allowing of course Feb 26 01:13:41 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Feb 26 01:14:13 * HH has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Feb 26 02:22:52 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Feb 26 02:24:47 * MollyK has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Feb 26 03:41:14 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Feb 26 03:43:19 * MollyK has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Feb 26 04:41:02 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Feb 26 04:42:55 * MollyK has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Feb 26 17:47:55 * Morgan (~mads@iMac-2.lan) has joined Feb 26 17:54:51 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Feb 26 17:55:14 * MollyK is now known as HH Feb 26 17:55:32 Inga was on track this time fr'm th' last Feb 26 17:56:19 * Morgan nods Feb 26 18:09:31 I'll see y' at lunch Feb 26 18:10:30 * Morgan nods Feb 26 18:10:35 We'll be good? Feb 26 18:11:12 Always are Feb 26 18:11:36 * Morgan nods, squeezing HeinzHarolds arm before going back below Feb 26 18:18:55 * HH is now known as Molly Feb 26 18:20:09 * Morgan comes back in, immediately getting himself a cup of coffee Feb 26 18:20:40 * Molly has Amir snoozing in her arms as she, Inga, and Varick are sat around the desk working from the small catechism. Today seems to be about not worshiping false idols Feb 26 18:22:27 * Morgan sits down, closing his eyes for a couple of minutes Feb 26 18:23:34 [do you need me?] Feb 26 18:24:29 [Just... talking to god] Feb 26 18:25:36 * Molly doesn't interrupt him further, still working with Varick Feb 26 18:26:18 * Morgan eventually opens his eyes Feb 26 18:27:05 [Do you understand why I am angry?] Feb 26 18:27:05 * Molly has moved Amir so he's sleeping with his head over her shoulder, her back to Morgan Feb 26 18:27:33 [because I asked you to lie] Feb 26 18:29:23 [Yes. You wanted me to violate my principles.] Feb 26 18:29:53 [yes. I see that it was unacceptable] Feb 26 18:30:20 [ok. Lets move on from that] Feb 26 18:30:51 [God yes I'd like that!] Feb 26 18:31:13 [alright then] Feb 26 18:31:17 [shall I ask Inga to watch the boys and we can talk properly somewhere?] Feb 26 18:32:34 [You think we need to?] Feb 26 18:33:06 [i thought you might want to talk about seeing Betuana?] Feb 26 18:35:42 [Nothing really to say] Feb 26 18:37:22 *he can see how he shoulders drop a little sadly, gently resting her cheek to the baby's head* Feb 26 18:38:17 [She is thinking it over] Feb 26 18:41:14 [really?] Feb 26 18:42:17 [Yes. I'm not particularly hopeful Feb 26 18:42:45 [Zareen would never have countenanced nor considered it] Feb 26 18:43:41 [No. She wouldn't] Feb 26 18:45:32 [that's something, isn't it?] *she sounds so hopeful* Feb 26 18:47:04 [please, blossom, try to not get your hopes up] Feb 26 18:47:23 [I will try...] Feb 26 18:48:06 [How are we going to handle returning so quickly?] Feb 26 18:48:33 [uhhh... I don't know] Feb 26 18:54:39 [I'm not sure I want to spend four weeks milling about] Feb 26 18:55:56 [no. I want to go home] Feb 26 18:57:39 [Why? I thought you thought of the Rose as home] Feb 26 18:58:27 [when we've finished in Capperlucia and going to Tawstock, Catterick, and Insel. I don't want to kick our heels anywhere] Feb 26 18:59:04 [again... why?] Feb 26 19:00:39 [I don't see the point in wasting time. Sascha is due at the end of May, but anything from mid-April on is possible with twins] Feb 26 19:01:09 [right, ok] Feb 26 19:02:18 [that troubles you?] Feb 26 19:02:47 [just trying to figure out how we'll explain turning up a month early Feb 26 19:04:31 [bad maps? Good currents? You're just that good?] Feb 26 19:05:53 [Fastest ship on Theah...] Feb 26 19:06:55 [indeed] Feb 26 19:07:51 * Morgan sighs, sipping his coffee Feb 26 19:08:24 [are we still to see Maelwys?] Feb 26 19:10:41 [I was thinking of that... what if we asked Alice to collect him with the Ketch from Carleon? Do you think they'd like a holiday at Morgan's Rock?] Feb 26 19:11:52 [I'm not sure... he breathes that tavern] Feb 26 19:12:25 [something to consider?] Feb 26 19:14:11 [Yes I suppose so. We'll have to get her to ask soon so they can prepare, if we're going to be moving this bloody fast Feb 26 19:14:13 ] Feb 26 19:14:45 * Molly gets up, bringing Amir to him Feb 26 19:15:03 I'll go to write a note, if you'll take this little man Feb 26 19:16:25 * Morgan nods, putting his coffee aside and taking the sleeping child Feb 26 19:17:46 *Amir is fast asleep, looks so peaceful. Molly goes* Feb 26 19:19:13 * Morgan fidgets, getting into a semi reclined position Feb 26 19:20:02 * Molly comes back a few minutes later, Inga and Varick continuing to work. She sits on the floor by him Feb 26 19:21:17 I've done that. Your Mother would like to talk to you, Edward had the same idea about the mirrors and Shadowfayre, so she wants to talk to you and maybe show you as she'll be showing Edward, Mina, and Christopher Feb 26 19:23:16 Edward will be in Sudlachenburg for the Shadowfayre? Feb 26 19:23:46 No, he will watch it tonight through the link with your Mother's mirror Feb 26 19:25:14 Right... when does she want to speak to me? Feb 26 19:26:22 Two o'clock, unless you leave her a note to say you'll be there at seven for the start of it Feb 26 19:27:08 No... two will be fine Feb 26 19:29:09 * Molly nods thoughtfully Feb 26 19:29:44 Was that the first time you were public about your marriage, at the Shadowfayre? Feb 26 19:30:24 * Morgan nods Feb 26 19:30:26 Yes, it was Feb 26 19:32:58 It has many memories then Feb 26 19:33:16 A good few, yes Feb 26 19:33:33 And you do not wish to see it? Feb 26 19:34:37 I just thought I'd have longer to prepare myself Feb 26 19:36:14 I would like to not spoil the surprise, and see it in person next year, when I am with child. Feb 26 19:36:56 But if doing that brings back too many hard memories? Feb 26 19:38:26 * Molly watches him "You already know I would not make you go if that were the case, my love" Feb 26 19:38:53 I know I know... but... what if using the mirrors is a way to ease that possibility when we are actually there? Feb 26 19:39:19 That's something to consider Feb 26 19:40:38 * Morgan nods Feb 26 19:40:41 And fairly quickly Feb 26 19:41:32 * Molly nods Feb 26 19:42:00 You could try it with the tobacco. It doesn't seem to make you... *she looks for the word* Feb 26 19:44:15 I assume its for the same reason I find it hard to get drunk Feb 26 19:44:42 * Molly nods "your ox-like constitution" Feb 26 19:45:17 * Morgan nods Feb 26 19:45:23 Quite Feb 26 19:45:38 Or the balm? Feb 26 19:46:41 Thats not a bad idea Feb 26 19:46:52 * Molly smiles Feb 26 19:47:35 Will you speak to her early though, and explain it? Feb 26 19:48:29 I'll speak to her at two Feb 26 19:49:09 Yes, my love Feb 26 19:49:38 V: We're done, Papa, it's time for family prayers Feb 26 19:49:56 * Morgan nods alright Feb 26 19:52:05 Will you lead us again? Feb 26 19:52:20 * Morgan nods Feb 26 19:52:22 If you like Feb 26 19:52:35 I do. That's how it should be Feb 26 19:55:41 * Morgan nods, getting off the couch with the sleeping child Feb 26 19:56:13 Should I take him? Feb 26 19:57:36 * Morgan shakes his head, getting into position Feb 26 19:59:20 *they gather round, going through this familiar rhythm of family prayers, Inga joining with them as HH is busy at work. Then it's time for a solo prayer, the other three quiet. Amir stirs slightly in Morgan's arms, but doesn't wake Feb 26 20:00:17 * Morgan gently rubs the baby's temple as he prays Feb 26 20:01:57 *it's all done before lunch time. Varick hugs Morgan* You're good at that, Papa Feb 26 20:02:08 What's that, being quiet? Feb 26 20:04:28 V: no! Saying the prayers Feb 26 20:04:58 Had some practice Feb 26 20:05:42 V: when do I get baptised? Feb 26 20:06:16 I'm arranging to have it done once we are back home, so mother and father can attend. Is that alright? Feb 26 20:07:37 *Varick nods* at Hafenlohr? Feb 26 20:08:18 Yes. Thats going to be our home so I think that would be appropriate... Feb 26 20:09:01 V: Okay. I'm hungry now Feb 26 20:09:20 * Morgan nods Feb 26 20:09:34 Me too Feb 26 20:09:39 *Amir starts to stir, rooting at Morgan's chest* Feb 26 20:10:33 * Morgan looks at Molly Feb 26 20:10:39 I suppose its time to take him back Feb 26 20:12:02 * Molly watches a moment "yes, I suppose so" Feb 26 20:12:46 We could try the goats milk again... Feb 26 20:13:21 V: Mama, you have bubbies, why can't you feed him? Feb 26 20:13:37 [thank you HeinzHarold] Feb 26 20:13:48 * Molly tries hard not to smile Feb 26 20:14:08 Because they don't make milk unless you've had a baby Feb 26 20:14:34 V: In Capperlucia the men feed the babies with their bubbies Feb 26 20:15:10 There are herbs they take to make that happen but it takes a while Feb 26 20:15:43 V: Oh. If you'd taken the herbs, you could feed Amir, Papa Feb 26 20:15:56 * Molly does smile a little at that Feb 26 20:15:57 Aye, I could have. Feb 26 20:16:19 *Amir starts to grizzle* Feb 26 20:16:46 * Morgan rocks him, talking quietly Feb 26 20:16:51 Alright little man, its alright Feb 26 20:18:04 Do you want me to take him to her? Feb 26 20:18:39 No, its alright, I'll take him Feb 26 20:18:50 * Molly nods Feb 26 20:19:01 * Morgan gets up slowly Feb 26 20:19:20 Shall we get lunch for us and Inga and Heinzharold then, Mauschen? Feb 26 20:19:35 * Morgan nods Feb 26 20:19:37 Good idea Feb 26 20:20:08 *they go on to the galley, leaving Morgan by the rooms* Feb 26 20:20:26 * Morgan heads for Betuana's room Feb 26 20:22:25 * Molly is now known as Betuana Feb 26 20:22:34 * Betuana calls to come in Feb 26 20:22:55 * Morgan opens the door, carrying Amir in Feb 26 20:23:22 * Betuana smiles "I thought he might be hungry by now. Thank you" Feb 26 20:24:33 * Morgan nods Feb 26 20:24:36 * Betuana comes to take him. If Amir notices much difference between Zareen and Betuana it's overriden by the urgency to get fed Feb 26 20:24:56 I thought of using the goats milk, I didn't know if you'd be less... indisposed than earlier Feb 26 20:41:14 We have finished having sex, thank you Feb 26 20:43:57 * Morgan nods, handing Amir over Feb 26 20:44:15 I'll have some lunch sent down to you? Feb 26 20:44:47 * Betuana smiles "thank you" she starts undoing her dress Feb 26 20:45:35 * Morgan inclines his head, glancing at the boy before moving out of the room, closing the door Feb 26 20:45:48 [could you have some lunch sent to Betuana and Xsarlac please Feb 26 20:46:01 [of course] Feb 26 20:47:08 * Morgan slowly makes his way back to his cabin Feb 26 20:48:47 *Inga is in there alone* Feb 26 20:48:52 * Betuana is now known as Inga Feb 26 20:49:13 * Inga is tidying away the books Feb 26 20:49:16 Just you? Feb 26 20:49:49 So far... I was closer Feb 26 20:50:11 How are you? Feb 26 20:51:20 * Morgan shrugs Feb 26 20:51:23 Alright I suppose Feb 26 20:51:42 * Inga nods Feb 26 20:51:50 It's been so busy this morning Feb 26 20:52:04 * Morgan nods, sighing Feb 26 20:52:08 Yes, it has. Feb 26 20:52:20 I'm looking forward to quiet hour Feb 26 20:53:18 If I weren't so worn out, I'd snigger Feb 26 20:54:29 * Inga smiles "I think laughing is important when things are stressful" Feb 26 20:54:56 * Morgan nods Feb 26 20:55:26 I'd like things to be easier Feb 26 20:56:19 Me too. I think it's time for that Feb 26 20:56:25 * Morgan nods Feb 26 20:56:30 I agree Feb 26 20:56:37 I've spoken to HeinzHarold Feb 26 20:56:56 Oh good, he'll be more cheerful too Feb 26 20:57:15 * Morgan shrugs Feb 26 20:57:17 I hope so Feb 26 20:57:37 * Inga speaks quietly, smiling "I think it's time shy Lord Heinzharold gets an offer from a Friendly Maid, you see?" Feb 26 20:58:24 * Inga watches him deadpan "That means getting a handjob." Feb 26 20:58:37 * Morgan blushes Feb 26 20:58:41 You're a little minx, you know that? Feb 26 20:58:57 I think it's Molly's influence mostly Feb 26 20:59:59 How so? Feb 26 21:00:25 Being a tease, I didn't really have a clue about that Feb 26 21:02:24 * Morgan nods Feb 26 21:02:30 You've changed quite a bit Feb 26 21:02:40 * Inga nods Feb 26 21:02:57 Heinzharold's rubbed off on me a lot. Just like with you Feb 26 21:03:26 * Morgan opens his mouth three times before shaking his head Feb 26 21:04:07 Oh! I didn't mean that rudely this time! I mean, he has, like that, and a lot, but his personality has done it Feb 26 21:04:27 * Morgan closes his eyes, pinching the bridge of his nose Feb 26 21:05:14 Its very difficult to maintain this permanently calm, self controlled demeanour when you say things like that... its like there's a thirteen year old HeinzHarold in my head jumping up and down wanting to talk Feb 26 21:05:37 I thought you wanted to be more open and at ease though? Feb 26 21:05:54 * Morgan nods Feb 26 21:06:58 Easy to say, difficult to do. If you'd known the man I was, you'd realise how... -drastically- I've already changed Feb 26 21:08:06 I know Molly said you were always very self-restrained when you lived in the cottage Feb 26 21:08:30 * Morgan nods Feb 26 21:08:44 Yes, I was. Feb 26 21:09:31 Do you think you changed to fit Molly, or just went back to being like you used to be? Feb 26 21:10:41 Somewhere between the two. I used to be... relaxed, friendly... charming even, but shy. Feb 26 21:11:37 All the stables and against the door and outside in the grass and in the tavern and in the alley and in the brothel all comes from her then? *she manages to rattle them off without taking a breath* Feb 26 21:12:03 * Morgan blinks a couple of times Feb 26 21:14:56 It used to be I would've refused it. I'd not have even considered doing anything in any of those places. I'm still being drawn from my shell... Feb 26 21:15:03 * Morgan glances at her sideways Feb 26 21:15:14 The brothel was my doing though Feb 26 21:15:24 * Inga smiles Feb 26 21:15:52 That makes much more sense than staggering cross-legged all the way back to the ship! Feb 26 21:16:50 * Morgan nods Feb 26 21:17:21 I will admit I pushed things farther than planned in the brothel before we went to our room... though I imagine you know that Feb 26 21:17:46 * Inga nods "I do. That's hotl Feb 26 21:17:51 Hot* Feb 26 21:18:22 * Morgan blushes Feb 26 21:19:27 That must be really different from what you used to be like first time around? Feb 26 21:20:12 * Morgan nods Feb 26 21:20:26 completely. I am utterly different Feb 26 21:20:57 Is it difficult to do things the old you would have hated? Feb 26 21:21:44 Yes, it is... like... I feel I -shouldn't- like some things because I -didn't- before. Feb 26 21:22:55 * Inga leans against his desk as if it's everyone's home in here Feb 26 21:23:02 Do you feel guilty? Feb 26 21:24:38 Sometimes, yes. Feb 26 21:26:00 Is that because you didn't do so many things like this with Dietlinde and wish you had? Feb 26 21:26:09 * Morgan shakes his head Feb 26 21:27:45 No... thats not who we were... realistically, you weren't terribly far off thinking me conventional... Feb 26 21:28:58 But you were happy? There weren't things you wanted that were off the table? *she glances at him* I know a lot is on the table now! Feb 26 21:29:11 * Morgan laughs for a moment Feb 26 21:30:13 We were very happy... we weren't experimental or wild... but we were very loving. Feb 26 21:30:51 * Inga smiles "that's nice then. It'd be sad if you were very different from each other" Feb 26 21:31:12 * Morgan nods Feb 26 21:31:18 Aye, it would Feb 26 21:31:51 Heinzharold says we might go to that brothel again on the way back Feb 26 21:32:07 Oh? Feb 26 21:33:41 We had fun Feb 26 21:33:54 * Morgan nods Feb 26 21:34:10 I think he's considering hiring a room... the freedom to be noisy... Feb 26 21:34:32 That'd save me having bite marks on my hands! Feb 26 21:34:58 * Morgan sucks on his cheek a moment Feb 26 21:35:01 Ok... -that- is hot Feb 26 21:35:10 * Inga giggles Feb 26 21:35:36 Should I casually let slip about it to Molly so she knows something you'd like? Feb 26 21:37:29 *there's been a few times where he's had to cover Molly's mouth with his own hand for the volume, though it was only a few days ago she suggested using a stocking as a gag* Feb 26 21:39:23 Uhhh... *he blushes* no, I think we're alright... Feb 26 21:40:41 * Inga nods Feb 26 21:40:53 What was it like upstairs? Feb 26 21:41:14 * Morgan shrugs Feb 26 21:41:19 Tidy, clean enough Feb 26 21:41:31 No, what was it like swiving there? Feb 26 21:41:52 * Morgan tilts his head Feb 26 21:41:58 free. Feb 26 21:42:19 Like downstairs, but with more orgasms? Feb 26 21:42:28 * Morgan nods Feb 26 21:42:37 Aye... fair chance most of the crew heard her... Feb 26 21:42:51 * Inga giggles Feb 26 21:43:04 Did that put you off or turn you on? Feb 26 21:45:59 It hadn't really occurred to me until we came downstairs and they started clapping... Feb 26 21:46:27 * Inga laughs Feb 26 21:46:36 Sounds like you did a good job then Feb 26 21:46:52 * Morgan winks at her Feb 26 21:46:59 I'm nothing if not determined Feb 26 21:47:38 Have you always been like that? Heinzharold finds more enjoyment in doing things to me than getting things for himself Feb 26 21:48:36 Uhhh... I've always very much enjoyed doing so, yes... maybe not so much as I do now Feb 26 21:49:08 * Inga looks intrigued Feb 26 21:49:10 Why? Feb 26 21:49:51 * Morgan shrugs Feb 26 21:50:44 Maybe its part of getting closer to who I was before the fire, or farther away from what I was in Tawstock... its almost... -intoxicating- Feb 26 21:51:20 The sex? Feb 26 21:54:36 * Inga has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Feb 26 21:58:32 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Feb 26 21:58:44 [21:35:58] Inga: The sex? Feb 26 22:01:01 No... making her orgasm. Knowing that her body is reacting that strongly to what -I- have done. You ever had a piece of fruit and are repeatedly like 'just one more' and you end up not being able to stop yourself having four, five, six? Because you have one more and the desire for another one is even stronger? Feb 26 22:01:19 * MollyK nods, smiling Feb 26 22:01:25 * MollyK is now known as Inga Feb 26 22:01:29 I do Feb 26 22:01:41 Its like that Feb 26 22:03:15 That's really nice that you enjoy doing it. Some men really don't Feb 26 22:04:18 Some are just really bad at it... which reminds me... that dream you told me about, rather influenced mine. Feb 26 22:04:35 The one about Potts? Feb 26 22:04:53 * Morgan nods Feb 26 22:05:22 * Inga looks excited by this "okay, you have to tell me -everything-!" Feb 26 22:06:12 * Morgan blushes Feb 26 22:07:06 * Inga giggles Feb 26 22:07:15 Oh god it's really dirty then! Feb 26 22:07:57 Its not that... its... its a step further, isn't it... Feb 26 22:08:06 What is? Feb 26 22:08:49 As open as I have become with you... its always still been vague Feb 26 22:09:08 *he hears bootsteps in the hall* Feb 26 22:09:30 Yes, I see what you mean. I'm used to talking to Molly, or Heinzharold Feb 26 22:09:39 * Morgan nods Feb 26 22:09:48 Perhaps later... we are about to have company Feb 26 22:10:13 *the man in question opens the door* Honey, I'm home! Feb 26 22:10:44 * Inga 's face completely lights up at this Feb 26 22:11:13 * Morgan smiles, watching her Feb 26 22:12:52 *HH strolls over to her, letting his hair fall in his face* hey baby, what's a pretty lassie like you doin' in a place like this an' with a guy like 'im? Feb 26 22:14:37 * Inga flushes in a way that even talking about swiving didn't manage. She watches him intently a few moments before slowly brushing his hair back from his face, much as Edward in the dream had advised Morgan to do* Feb 26 22:15:29 * Morgan smiles slightly, looking away Feb 26 22:15:29 *HH smirks* Y' might wanna cover yer eyes, man... Feb 26 22:16:27 *it's impossible to miss the sound of lips meeting for a few moments* Feb 26 22:17:04 * Morgan takes out a small piece of paper and pencil, scribbling momentarily before putting it away again Feb 26 22:17:30 HH: Y' can look now. We don't swive on other people's desks. Feb 26 22:17:36 Heinzharold! Feb 26 22:17:43 *HH chuckles* Feb 26 22:17:57 That was -one time- man Feb 26 22:18:24 * Inga quietly says "the rest are on this desk" Feb 26 22:18:38 I can neither confirm nor deny that Feb 26 22:18:55 HH raises an eyebrow: We eat at this desk! Feb 26 22:19:17 If you're having to lick food from the desk, you've got bigger problems than what we do on it Feb 26 22:19:37 HH grins: Could be paint, man Feb 26 22:20:01 * Morgan snorts, laughing Feb 26 22:20:22 Why would anyone lick paint off a desk?! Feb 26 22:20:49 HH: b'cause the floor's a bit low down Feb 26 22:21:24 * Inga looks at Morgan "what is he on about?!" Feb 26 22:21:53 * Morgan purses his lips, blowing out air Feb 26 22:22:04 I'm not sure HeinzHarold would appreciate me telling you that... Feb 26 22:22:45 *HH grins* no man, go for it, gonna be hilarious! Feb 26 22:24:21 * Morgan rolls his shoulders Feb 26 22:25:27 * Inga leans agains the desk too, arm around his wife Feb 26 22:25:33 HH* Feb 26 22:27:04 Right, so... alright... its this dream, right... not long after Molly fell in the pool and I saw her undressed, see... couldn't get her off my mind so, I thought I'd take a leaf out of HeinzHarolds book and... take matters in hand, see... Feb 26 22:29:02 * Inga nods, glancing at HH "that means doing the solo unloading, right?" Feb 26 22:29:20 *HH sniggers* yeah, sweetheart Feb 26 22:30:54 So, first, somehow, I've forgotten to lock the door and she barges in... I manage to send her out, mortified, but the feeling hasn't gone... so... I lock the door and... do the deed... just as I'm reaching the point of no return, she knocks, offering to help... right.... Feb 26 22:31:17 That's like being a friendly maid! Feb 26 22:31:45 * Morgan nods, glancing at HeinzHarold Feb 26 22:31:59 *HH is chuckling* Feb 26 22:32:43 Too late by this point, see and... the inevitable happens... but... it doesn't stop. Its like... a flood, just keeps going and going, onto the bed, the floor... under the door into the hallway... Feb 26 22:33:01 * Inga starts laughing "oh no!" Feb 26 22:35:17 Molly's still outside the door, gets it on her shoes... she gets down to have a closer look and gets it on her knees, her hands... Feb 26 22:35:58 * Inga is laughing harder, HH joining in Feb 26 22:37:23 Whole time she's talking, its on my shoes, I've got some on my skirts, its on my hands... then she says... Morgan, it doesn't taste like paint... Feb 26 22:37:53 * Inga creases up, turning into HH to laugh against his shoulder Feb 26 22:38:29 HH: did y' even paint back then?! Feb 26 22:38:31 * Morgan rubs his forehead Feb 26 22:38:49 No... I don't paint. Feb 26 22:39:53 Why would it taste like paint?! It doesn't have the same consistency! It's more like a watery bread sauce Feb 26 22:40:10 * Morgan closes his eyes for a moment Feb 26 22:40:42 Its come flooding out under my door, paint was probably the most sensible option... why she tasted it... Feb 26 22:41:07 HH: Oh fuck, like a watery chicken porridge! *he starts retching* Feb 26 22:41:18 * Morgan retches involuntarily Feb 26 22:41:23 Why lick it off the floor and not your fingers?! Feb 26 22:41:40 I think... it was on her hands and she licked it off that... I think. Feb 26 22:42:02 *HH regains composure* Feb 26 22:42:43 *the door fractionally opens* why would she know what paint tasted like? Feb 26 22:43:02 $incoming$ Feb 26 22:44:04 *Molly comes in with a tray. She's obviously caught the last little bit* have you never been using a paintbrush and accidentally put the end to your lips? Feb 26 22:44:19 * Morgan shakes his head Feb 26 22:44:30 *HH sniggers* $that a euphemism?$ Feb 26 22:44:44 I've never done it Feb 26 22:44:48 $Nope$ Feb 26 22:45:40 *Molly shrugs, setting the tray of food on one corner of the desk before using a cloth to wipe the surface down* Feb 26 22:46:28 * Inga glances at HH with a smirk. He winks suggestively at her Feb 26 22:46:54 M: Everyone ready to eat? Feb 26 22:47:13 * Inga suddenly erupts in giggles, setting HH off Feb 26 22:48:28 *Molly watches them a moment before glancing at Morgan* I guess they're very hungry? Feb 26 22:49:23 Something like that I would imagine Feb 26 22:49:53 M: please, sit. Liebling, do you wish to give me a hand? Feb 26 22:50:26 * Inga looks like she's having a huge struggle to stay straightfaced Feb 26 22:50:51 * Morgan gets up, moving to help her Feb 26 22:51:05 M: there's two more trays in the galley Feb 26 22:51:34 * Inga is now known as Molly Feb 26 22:51:42 Right... we'll go fetch them Feb 26 22:52:06 * Molly gently shuts the door behind them when they're in the empty hall Feb 26 22:52:18 I think perhaps I am missing something? Feb 26 22:54:08 Yes, you are love. HeinzHarold said something about things we might do on the desk... and how they eat off that desk, and I said if he's licking food from it, he's got bigger problems than what we might get up to on it Feb 26 22:54:28 * Molly blushes a little Feb 26 22:54:37 Alright... Feb 26 22:55:25 And he said... could be paint, man... Feb 26 22:56:01 He already knows about that dream? Feb 26 22:56:39 * Morgan nods Feb 26 22:57:35 I didn't tell Inga, I thought you'd feel uncomfortable about it Feb 26 22:58:45 I probably would have at the time... I'm a little uneasy now but... I thought it a good opportunity to make progress... Feb 26 22:59:32 * Molly nods "I don't think you need to be uneasy. And it -is- amusing" Feb 26 22:59:54 * Morgan nods Feb 26 22:59:56 aye Feb 26 23:01:18 * Molly smiles, kissing his cheek, speaking quietly by his ear "it takes much nicer than paint" she turns with a teasing smile, walking down the hall Feb 26 23:01:28 Tastes* Feb 26 23:02:29 I would hope so Feb 26 23:03:06 * Molly nods, smiling thoughtfully Feb 26 23:03:09 Mmhmm Feb 26 23:03:59 She wanted to know about last nights dream but... I haven't told you yet Feb 26 23:04:40 Oh yes, I am very much looking forward to that! *she shivers a little in fond remembrance* Feb 26 23:05:05 * Morgan nods Feb 26 23:06:42 Will you tell me in quiet hour? Feb 26 23:06:55 * Morgan nods Feb 26 23:06:57 Of course Feb 26 23:07:44 * Molly nods, smiling warmly. She glances around a moment Feb 26 23:11:06 * Molly ensures they're alone before she sends him a thought. She's knelt on all fours on shiny clean floorboards, and he's stood above her, hand around his erection. There's a white puddle of his release on the floor between them, and she gives him a little look of mischief before bending right down to lap it up Feb 26 23:12:54 * Morgan blushes, looking shocked Feb 26 23:13:28 * Molly smiles with that much mischief, going into the galley Feb 26 23:13:49 * Morgan stands still for a moment before following her Feb 26 23:14:57 * Molly picks up a tray. Varick is stood on a stool washing up plates "Look Papa, I'm a galley boy now!" Feb 26 23:16:31 * Morgan nods Feb 26 23:17:28 Are you wearing more of that water than there is to wash with? Feb 26 23:17:41 * Molly picks up a tray "I'll take this one down, my love" Feb 26 23:17:52 Alright blossom. We'll be along in a moment Feb 26 23:18:02 *Varick shakes his head* I've got an apron Feb 26 23:18:07 * Molly is now known as Varick Feb 26 23:18:21 *Molly goes on ahead* Feb 26 23:21:03 * Morgan stands beside Varick, rolling up his sleeves Feb 26 23:21:08 Right, lets get this done so we can eat Feb 26 23:21:28 Cook: It's alright, my Lord, I can do it Feb 26 23:21:43 * Varick gets on with his work Feb 26 23:21:47 * Morgan shakes his head Feb 26 23:22:05 No, its a job he took on, it's one we'll finish Feb 26 23:22:20 *Cook inclines his head* Feb 26 23:22:35 * Varick does a good job, working hard Feb 26 23:23:03 * Morgan helps him, drying his hands once they're done Feb 26 23:23:24 * Varick dries his too "Is Amir still with us?" Feb 26 23:24:17 No, he went for a feed Feb 26 23:25:25 Oh, okay Feb 26 23:26:49 * Varick sits nicely at the desk when they get there. Morgan's tray has the hot drinks, Molly has dished up lunch. HH waits til everything's ready before gesturing Feb 26 23:27:21 $little bird tells me you were talking about doing something in the brothel you weren't supposed to$ Feb 26 23:28:32 $Oh really?$ Feb 26 23:29:27 $wouldnt tell me what though. But given that she was all blushing when she mentioned it, I'm guessing it's something she wants. Tell me so I can put her out of her misery?$ Feb 26 23:29:56 * Morgan sips his drink Feb 26 23:30:25 $There was... playing beneath the skirts before we went upstairs. And for the record, I didn't tell her$ Feb 26 23:31:34 $okay, thanks man$ Feb 26 23:31:50 * Morgan watches him for a moment before nodding slightly Feb 26 23:32:38 * Varick tells them about him helping in the galley. Molly glances at Morgan a moment before smiling innocently Feb 26 23:33:26 * Morgan eats quietly, smiling slightly Feb 26 23:35:26 *the conversation is light and easy, but as soon as Varick is in for his nap, HH stands up, taking Inga's hand Feb 26 23:35:39 HH: We'll see y' later! Feb 26 23:36:16 * Morgan nods Feb 26 23:37:33 *Inga smiles at them, getting almost pulled from the room, door shutting behind them* Feb 26 23:39:27 * Varick has quit (Quit: Igloo IRC: https://iglooirc.com) Feb 26 23:40:44 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)
