**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Mar 27 00:00:34 2023 Mar 27 00:00:34 I: Hadn't he just said if he was emotionally able to take a mistress he might want you to be his mistress though? Mar 27 00:02:20 You really have heard all of it haven't you? Mar 27 00:02:42 * Molly blushes, nodding "Yes she has... But there's miles between that and him actually taking the initiative and kissing me!" Mar 27 00:03:44 HH: Never understood why they always expect us t' take th' initiative! Mar 27 00:04:12 * Morgan shrugs Mar 27 00:04:17 Never tried to figure it out Mar 27 00:04:44 HH: Really weird, man. Mar 27 00:05:17 I: I didn't kiss you first because you were too busy pointing out all the different plants we walked past! Mar 27 00:06:14 HH: Yeah, well... you weren't fawnin' over me like most women. Wasn' feelin' too sure of meself! Mar 27 00:06:38 * Molly smiles at Morgan, seeming to know this as well as Inga knows hers Mar 27 00:07:10 * Morgan smiles, flicking the book back open discreetly, writing a little more before closing it again Mar 27 00:07:56 *HH looks at Morgan* After about three hours, she says t' me "I don't suppose you've seen any mistletoe anywhere?" Mar 27 00:08:55 *Inga giggles* And he said "No, sorry, not in June." Mar 27 00:09:31 * Morgan laughs Mar 27 00:09:39 Oh man, you poor innocent thing Mar 27 00:10:27 HH: Three hours, man, hot girl, my gorgeous face, an' she's not made a move. That never 'appens! Mar 27 00:11:56 You must've been so confused Mar 27 00:12:38 HH nods: walked about another thirty seconds before it suddenly clicked Mar 27 00:13:59 And to think, they sent you in to gather information... shocking. Mar 27 00:14:32 HH: I know, man. Blood wasn't in my head much Mar 27 00:14:59 * Molly and Inga giggle* Mar 27 00:17:10 *Inga smiles fondly* He grabbed my hand, pulled me to him, and said "next time, you can just tell me y' want it." Then he kissed me. Mar 27 00:18:10 HH: Wanted 'er to be sure there could be a next time. Mar 27 00:18:19 * Morgan nods Mar 27 00:18:26 * Molly smiles "it's sweet, isn't it?" Mar 27 00:18:42 Very. Mar 27 00:18:56 * Molly looks at him Mar 27 00:19:08 I had no idea we would have a next time... Mar 27 00:19:19 No... I know Mar 27 00:19:38 HH: sounds like you knew, man Mar 27 00:21:04 * Molly touches her lower lip subconsciously, just as she had been the following day before he called her out on the tell and she admitted she'd been remembering the previous night's kiss Mar 27 00:21:28 * Morgan shrugs Mar 27 00:21:30 Not really Mar 27 00:21:54 I: it sounds very complicated Mar 27 00:22:28 * Molly smiles "that does rather sum up most things to do with us really!" Mar 27 00:22:46 * Morgan nods Mar 27 00:22:53 Thats very true Mar 27 00:23:05 I: do you wish it was easier? Mar 27 00:23:19 * Morgan shrugs Mar 27 00:23:24 Sometimes, some of it. Mar 27 00:23:58 * Molly nods "it's complicated wishing it wasn't complicated too!" Mar 27 00:24:10 *HH chuckles* Mar 27 00:25:11 HH: like layers and layers o' complicated, strip 'em away and yer left with...? Mar 27 00:25:47 Wild, passionate lust. *she says this completely deadpan* Mar 27 00:26:21 * Morgan nods, sipping his drink Mar 27 00:26:26 *HH laughs as does Inga* Mar 27 00:26:48 I: I thought you'd say true love, or souls that fit together! Mar 27 00:27:13 * Molly looks to Morgan "deep, intense lust?" Mar 27 00:28:48 * Morgan looks thoughtful Mar 27 00:28:54 Yeah... Mar 27 00:30:07 [the romantic stuff too, of course... but I have an image to maintain] Mar 27 00:30:40 [naturally] Mar 27 00:31:00 **There's a crying from the bedroom. Molly takes a slow deep breath** Mar 27 00:31:27 HH: Someone's given up on being a good girl. Mar 27 00:31:49 * Morgan nods Mar 27 00:32:01 She gave that up a little while ago.... Mar 27 00:32:27 * Molly blushes a little, standing up "if you'll excuse me..." Mar 27 00:33:18 Alright love Mar 27 00:33:32 HH: *he sips his drink* gotta do summat about these bad girls, man Mar 27 00:33:49 [you can feel the letdown tomorrow?] Mar 27 00:33:51 like... enjoy it? Mar 27 00:33:56 [Alright my love] Mar 27 00:34:08 * Molly goes in Mar 27 00:35:13 HH: *He looks at Inga a minute* Like tell 'em they're even hotter when they're naughty Mar 27 00:35:42 *Inga goes bright red* I think we should let you and Molly settle for the night Mar 27 00:36:27 * Morgan smiles slightly Mar 27 00:36:30 Alright love Mar 27 00:37:15 *HH downs the last of his drink* That's my marchin' orders given! Better get on th' battlefield before my general gives me a tellin' off Mar 27 00:37:35 * Morgan nods Mar 27 00:37:39 Aye, best had Mar 27 00:38:18 HH: She won't be happy til I'm on th' ground beginnin' for God Mar 27 00:38:35 *Inga slaps his arm* Heinzharold! Mar 27 00:39:14 * Morgan sniggers, opening the door Mar 27 00:39:22 *Inga smiles at Morgan* I'll make him do all the work Mar 27 00:39:34 Good, don't let him off easy Mar 27 00:40:05 HH: She never lets me off easy, man... likes to torture me! Mar 27 00:40:19 *Inga starts pushing HH out of the door* Mar 27 00:40:22 * Morgan laughs Mar 27 00:40:26 I'll see you in the morning Mar 27 00:40:45 HH: I'll hobble up f' my watch Mar 27 00:41:02 I: You'll be sleeping on deck if you don't stop! Mar 27 00:42:25 *HH chuckles* Night man, hope yers is more biddable. It's what happens when you hire 'em on cheaply hourly rates! Mar 27 00:43:37 Oh, you're getting a slap. Go on, go spend some time making it up to her Mar 27 00:43:56 *Inga smiles, blushing* He'd probably like that! Good night, Morgan Mar 27 00:44:27 Goodnight love Mar 27 00:45:04 *They are laughing together as she continues to push him down the hall* Mar 27 00:45:33 * Morgan closes the door Mar 27 00:55:21 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Mar 27 01:28:13 * Molly has quit (Ping Timeout) Mar 27 02:00:04 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Mar 27 02:10:01 * MollyK has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Mar 27 03:40:50 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Mar 27 03:42:42 * MollyK has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) Mar 27 14:40:28 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Mar 27 14:41:40 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Mar 27 14:44:11 * MollyK is sat on the bed nursing the baby Mar 27 14:44:28 They've gone off to bed Mar 27 14:48:00 * MollyK speaks quietly Mar 27 14:48:09 But not to sleep, I would wager! Mar 27 14:48:25 * Morgan nods Mar 27 14:48:29 I'd not imagine so, no Mar 27 14:50:58 * MollyK smiles Mar 27 14:51:13 They're pursuing their goal of making a child Mar 27 14:52:58 * Morgan nods Mar 27 14:53:04 Aye. Mar 27 14:53:55 * MollyK strokes Amir's hair Mar 27 14:54:01 They are rather adorable Mar 27 14:54:11 Children? Mar 27 14:54:17 * MollyK nods Mar 27 14:54:47 Although... I've heard that story of their first kiss many times, and I still find it very lovely Mar 27 14:55:07 * Morgan nods Mar 27 14:55:10 It is very sweet Mar 27 14:55:55 Ours was sweet too... maybe sweet isn't quite the right word. I don't think it was simple enough to be sweet? Mar 27 14:56:59 * Morgan shrugs I Mar 27 14:57:01 I suppose not Mar 27 14:57:12 Thrilling... charged... Mar 27 14:57:26 Charged is good Mar 27 14:57:36 * MollyK nods Mar 27 14:57:59 Erotic too, but I didn't understand that at the time Mar 27 14:58:35 * Morgan nods Mar 27 14:58:43 Far too innocent then Mar 27 14:58:50 * MollyK nods Mar 27 14:59:23 I had do idea what that feeling of heat coursing through me and making me shiver was Mar 27 14:59:27 No* Mar 27 14:59:59 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:01:09 * MollyK smiles Mar 27 15:01:58 But I was innocent enough to not know that open mouthed kisses involved tongues, so that is unsurprising really? Mar 27 15:02:13 No, not really Mar 27 15:04:32 * MollyK smiles Mar 27 15:05:04 God, I'd have been ruined for any other man trying to kiss me after that! Mar 27 15:06:45 You think so? Mar 27 15:07:22 * MollyK nods Mar 27 15:07:33 Absolutely. No man could have lived up to that Mar 27 15:08:18 * Morgan nods slightly Mar 27 15:10:03 * MollyK smiles Mar 27 15:10:50 You'd have missed the innocence of me if you'd done it with someone else after that? *she gently switches Amir to the other side* Mar 27 15:11:31 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:11:42 I expect so... though I can't imagine having wanted to do it with anyone else Mar 27 15:12:54 No? Why so? Mar 27 15:14:58 Because... I felt vulnerable, and I don't think I could have done that with anyone else Mar 27 15:15:36 Would you have felt so vulnerable with anyone else, unless it has meant so much? Mar 27 15:16:23 I think its like with Eiblinn... it wouldn't have been so,,, important. Mar 27 15:17:00 * MollyK smiles Mar 27 15:17:24 I really didn't realise at the time Mar 27 15:17:38 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:19:07 I was too busy being amazed that you wanted to kiss me at all Mar 27 15:20:49 Amazed? Mar 27 15:21:27 * MollyK nods Mar 27 15:22:27 You were so mature and worldly and sure of yourself, and I was innocent and had never kissed anyone and awkward and crushing on you so badly Mar 27 15:23:36 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:23:43 I suppose I hadn't considered that Mar 27 15:24:56 No? You didn't see me that way? Mar 27 15:25:57 I was more occupied by not pushing either of us too far Mar 27 15:27:17 * MollyK smiles, biting her lip Mar 27 15:27:34 I dread to think how far I'd have gone if you'd led me... Mar 27 15:30:26 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:30:34 I've seen that... Mar 27 15:31:28 When I became with child? Mar 27 15:32:20 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:32:43 aye Mar 27 15:33:09 It doesn't reflect well on me that I'd have yielded like that... *she smiles a little ruefully* Mar 27 15:35:33 You were naive and swept up by it all Mar 27 15:36:12 * MollyK nods "I think we have since realised that if aroused my common sense goes out of the window..." Mar 27 15:39:24 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:39:27 That is a fair statement Mar 27 15:39:37 * MollyK nods Mar 27 15:40:31 I don't know where I would have stopped if it had seemed you wanted more Mar 27 15:40:47 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:41:11 Good job I didn't have access to my savings back then... I might have had enough money to get drunk Mar 27 15:41:58 And then? Mar 27 15:43:28 Well, we know how that turns out Mar 27 15:43:36 * MollyK nods Mar 27 15:44:11 You left so quickly that night, going from kissing me to suddenly saying goodnight and going to bed... Mar 27 15:45:05 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:45:13 I was suddenly out of my depth Mar 27 15:46:26 I thought I'd done something wrong, that I'd overstepped, taken advantage of the situation... Mar 27 15:47:19 No love. It was all my own issues Mar 27 15:48:02 Did you feel relieved to be back in your own room? *she sounds curious rather than upset or troubled* Mar 27 15:49:30 A bit, yes... Mar 27 15:49:39 * MollyK nods Mar 27 15:49:46 I think that is understandable Mar 27 15:52:33 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:52:37 Perhaps Mar 27 15:52:52 * MollyK smiles "It took me almost three hours to get to sleep!" Mar 27 15:56:25 * Morgan nods Mar 27 15:56:32 I didn't sleep... predictably Mar 27 15:56:54 *she nods* My thoughts were all in turmoil. Were you disappointed, was I awful at it, had Evie done it better, would you want to go home early, would you tell me I'd overstepped or should be more virtuous? Mar 27 15:59:25 * Morgan nods, looking at Amir Mar 27 15:59:41 I understand you feeling that... I did feel similar Mar 27 15:59:52 * MollyK smirks a little Mar 27 16:00:07 I'd never kissed Evie, so you needn't have worried about that! Mar 27 16:00:27 You know what I meant Mar 27 16:00:30 *he's barely sucking now* Mar 27 16:01:54 I do. What got me to sleep was deciding that no matter what happened on the morrow, that beautiful memory would be mine to treasure forever, and so I let myself replay it in my mind in glorious detail over and over until I drifted off Mar 27 16:02:44 * Morgan nods Mar 27 16:03:29 You'd think it would have prevented me from actually misstepping a few days later, but apparently not! Mar 27 16:04:00 Misstepping? Mar 27 16:04:04 * MollyK gently eases her nipple from the baby's mouth, waiting to see if he stays asleep Mar 27 16:05:21 Mmhmm. When I'd had the nightmare and we'd talked. I'd lost my nerve when moving to kiss you, so you kissed me... I ran my hand up your back, and you quickly disengaged Mar 27 16:08:17 * Morgan nods Mar 27 16:10:39 Well... my back... Mar 27 16:10:58 * MollyK smiles a little Mar 27 16:11:36 I thought I'd scared you Mar 27 16:11:55 Maybe a little... or I'd scared myself Mar 27 16:12:34 How had you scared yourself? *she slowly stands, breast still out just incase* Mar 27 16:13:20 just... a bit more... exposed than I was ready for... I'd let myself feel more than I expected to Mar 27 16:13:42 Emotionally, romantically, or physically? Mar 27 16:14:00 Emotionally, romantically... primarily... Mar 27 16:14:27 * MollyK nods, gently laying Amir down Mar 27 16:14:38 Was it easily dismissed from your mind? Mar 27 16:14:57 No. Not at all Mar 27 16:15:20 * MollyK strokes Amir's hair Mar 27 16:15:39 I'd revealed something more than I'd intended? Mar 27 16:16:19 Perhaps... Mar 27 16:16:50 * MollyK smiles, tucking the baby in Mar 27 16:18:05 I'd never managed to dismiss from my mind that feel of the firmness and heat of your back through your shirt Mar 27 16:18:33 Thats how scar tissue feels I suppose Mar 27 16:19:28 * MollyK shakes her head "I didn't even notice that. I didn't know of your scars until the night I undressed you at Die Dauerhaftigkeit" Mar 27 16:20:55 * MollyK moves away from the crib, trying to reposition her dress Mar 27 16:21:56 I should've warned you Mar 27 16:26:26 * MollyK shakes her head "it wasn't necessary, I only wish I'd known how they were a source of upset for you, and I might have been more restrained..." Mar 27 16:27:37 * Morgan shakes his head Mar 27 16:27:44 Don't worry about that Mar 27 16:30:35 *what she had done was remove his shirt, gasped, run her hands all over his back reverently and proclaimed him exquisite, before saying she thought him more exquisite because of them and how she was honoured to be sharing the marks of his life with him, before kissing and licking all over his back, not giving them any less attention than if his Mar 27 16:30:36 back had been without them, accepting and desirous still* Mar 27 16:32:22 * MollyK smiles "I was very enthused that night..." Mar 27 16:32:57 * Morgan nods Mar 27 16:32:59 Yes, you were Mar 27 16:35:58 * MollyK smiles "It was wonderful. Are you ready for sleep?" Mar 27 16:40:16 * Morgan nods Mar 27 16:40:21 Aye I think so Mar 27 16:41:19 * MollyK nods, undressing and preparing for bed Mar 27 16:42:17 * Morgan finishes his drink, getting undressed Mar 27 16:43:11 * MollyK gets settled in in the darkness, relaxing Mar 27 16:44:15 I didn't expect it would be tiring like this Mar 27 16:46:00 No... Mar 27 16:46:28 * MollyK waits until he's in before cuddling up to him Mar 27 16:46:56 I don't regret it Mar 27 16:47:04 good. Mar 27 16:47:38 * MollyK nods, gently kissing his chest where she's got her head rested Mar 27 16:48:22 I'm glad we got past our disagreement earlier so quickly Mar 27 16:48:30 * MollyK nods Mar 27 16:48:46 We are learning how to handle it better Mar 27 16:52:39 * Morgan nods Mar 27 16:52:40 Slowly Mar 27 16:56:57 The lows are low... Mar 27 16:57:08 * Morgan nods Mar 27 16:57:10 exactly Mar 27 16:57:37 We can only try to manage them and revel in the highs Mar 27 16:57:57 * Morgan nods Mar 27 16:57:57 Aye Mar 27 16:58:18 Would you like me to sing now? Mar 27 16:58:42 You think it will not disturb him? Mar 27 16:59:02 Not if it's quiet, and it seems to help you Mar 27 17:00:51 * Morgan nods Mar 27 17:00:54 Alright love Mar 27 17:01:29 * MollyK starts singing Peaches And Cream before quietly giggling Mar 27 17:02:41 * Morgan laughs quietly Mar 27 17:02:57 I'm sorry, something sensible... *she sings Kosk Yn Ta and she's very rapidly asleep* Mar 27 17:03:17 * Morgan sighs, settling himself Mar 27 17:05:05 **he dreams he's fishing at the lake at Hafenlohr, each fish more weird and wonderful than the next. The weather is nice, the sun is warm on his bare back… on his bare thighs… on his bare bottom… and so very warm on his manhood and balls… and then he's stirred to awakeness by the heat in those places, her hand cupping him, her sucking mouth around Mar 27 17:05:05 his hardness as she is under the covers between his legs** Mar 27 17:06:14 * Morgan makes a quiet noise of surprise Mar 27 17:06:33 [shhh... I need you to not wake the baby...] Mar 27 17:08:16 * Morgan nods, laying his head back Mar 27 17:08:35 * MollyK continues to lick and suck at him with an enthusiasm that is going to make that more difficult. Against his leg he can feel her arm move in a manner consistent with chasing her own pleasure Mar 27 17:10:13 [god thats good] Mar 27 17:13:16 [mmmhmm, oh yes it is] *she sinks her mouth deeper, grinding him against her tonsils. He can feel how she writhes and fidgets, but in the dark can only just make out the shape of the covers that she's below, assumably lying prone against her own hand* Mar 27 17:17:12 * Morgan breathes slowly, clenching his jaw Mar 27 17:20:48 * MollyK starts to writhe more, pushing deeper roughly Mar 27 17:21:08 * Morgan gasps, pulling a pillow over his face Mar 27 17:21:58 *he pops into her throat suddenly from her pressure* Mar 27 17:24:52 * Morgan moans into the pillow Mar 27 17:27:50 * MollyK lowers and raises her head rapidly, taking him right out and then back in with a slick relentless heat. He can feel through his legs how she thrusts and grinds against her own hand Mar 27 17:29:12 [oh shit, thats good] Mar 27 17:30:14 [yes! Fuck! This will be enough? You don't... need to... go next door?] Mar 27 17:31:25 [This is going to work just fine... very soon] Mar 27 17:33:06 * MollyK suddenly tenses all over, sinking really deep as she climaxes, her throat making tight fast spasms around him Mar 27 17:34:15 * Morgan moans into the pillow, his own orgasm hitting at that moment Mar 27 17:39:58 * MollyK draws back to catch a quick breath before engulfing him again, swiftly enough to still be peaking Mar 27 17:42:37 * Morgan spills his seed into her throat, moaning into the pillow Mar 27 17:44:08 [oh god I love this!] *the gap between her peaks seems to be almost none before her throat becomes very tight around him once more* Mar 27 17:45:52 * Morgan can be heard letting out a long slow breath Mar 27 17:47:01 * MollyK slows before bringing him back just into her mouth, gently licking and sucking him and she makes her body flare with pleasure a final time Mar 27 17:47:29 * Morgan uncovers his face, blowing out his breath Mar 27 17:47:33 [that was intense] Mar 27 17:48:05 *it takes her a few moments to answer* [yes it was] Mar 27 17:50:04 [are you alright?] Mar 27 17:50:09 * MollyK gently dries him of the saliva it's generated, the towel already feeling warm and a bit wet Mar 27 17:50:20 [fine, my love] Mar 27 17:50:42 [what brought that about?] Mar 27 17:51:27 [just a dream] *she finishes off, moving to lie beside him and dropping the towel on the floor* Mar 27 17:51:51 [I see] Mar 27 17:52:38 * MollyK snuggles into him [I'll tell you all about it tomorrow?] Mar 27 17:52:48 [alright love] Mar 27 17:53:11 * MollyK nods, back to sleep in seconds Mar 27 17:53:38 * Morgan tries to go back to sleep Mar 27 17:55:02 *it takes a little while. Though she'd said that once they knew he wouldn't get stuck she could be at liberty to waking him this way as she'd done on his birthday, it was significantly more intense and urgent than anticipated* Mar 27 17:56:54 *he manages to get to sleep, dreaming nothing until the dawn watch chimes* Mar 27 17:57:10 * Morgan climbs out of bed, dressing quickly Mar 27 17:57:38 *the room is still dark, but he can hear Molly and Amir both sleeping* Mar 27 17:58:15 * Morgan heads out, going straight to the galley for coffee before walking up on deck Mar 27 17:58:23 * MollyK is now known as Claudia Mar 27 17:59:06 * Claudia is in command up there. It's only six fifteeen, still dark Mar 27 17:59:14 Morning Mar 27 17:59:20 hey Mar 27 17:59:30 How are you? Mar 27 17:59:52 * Morgan shrugs Mar 27 17:59:56 I'm alright. You? Mar 27 18:00:37 Fairly good. Looking forward to a few days of rest next week, surprisingly Mar 27 18:00:54 * Morgan nods Mar 27 18:01:06 Its been a hard couple of weeks thanks to her wandering about Mar 27 18:01:27 * Claudia nods Mar 27 18:01:40 I expect more of the same on the way home too Mar 27 18:01:46 * Morgan nods, sighing Mar 27 18:01:50 Yeah, I expect so Mar 27 18:02:26 Are you looking forward to the break, or will it be different because she's working and you're not Mar 27 18:02:57 Thats going to be so weird. I -might- be looking forward to those climbing walls... Mar 27 18:03:19 Good that you won't be hanging around pining for her Mar 27 18:03:59 Might do a bit of that too Mar 27 18:04:11 Heinzharold is going to be awful Mar 27 18:05:09 Yeah, probably Mar 27 18:05:42 Not sure who will be crying for bubbies Moore, him or Amir Mar 27 18:05:50 more* Mar 27 18:06:14 Tough to say really... probably him Mar 27 18:06:40 Will Amir stay with you, or does he need to go with Molly? Mar 27 18:07:07 If she expresses the milk he can stay with me... its something we need to decide on soon Mar 27 18:07:22 * Claudia nods Mar 27 18:07:37 How are you coping with it now? Mar 27 18:08:27 Fairly well I think. It keeps dredging up memories of Jana which is... difficult. But normal, apparently Mar 27 18:08:44 * Claudia nods Mar 27 18:09:24 Yeah. Heinzharold making a nuisance of himself yet? Mar 27 18:10:11 For what? Mar 27 18:10:32 Filching milk for lacing everyone's coffee Mar 27 18:12:22 Varick asked if he could taste it... offered some to HeinzHarold and he got really flustered and awkward Mar 27 18:14:28 * Claudia sniggers Mar 27 18:14:34 Sorry I missed it Mar 27 18:14:38 * Morgan nods Mar 27 18:14:44 It was really odd to see it though Mar 27 18:15:06 Heinzharold at a loss is spectacular Mar 27 18:17:22 * Morgan nods Mar 27 18:17:23 absolutely Mar 27 18:18:52 I reckon... last night ro two, she won't move on her own... Mar 27 18:19:38 Too close to land? Mar 27 18:20:32 I think so... otherwise she'd have done it while we were sailing round Avalon... or up the river... Mar 27 18:20:39 * Claudia nods Mar 27 18:20:52 We'll see on Saturday then Mar 27 18:20:53 And she waited until after the storm, so... maybe its not safe... Mar 27 18:21:09 Smart girl Mar 27 18:21:36 * Morgan nods, smiling Mar 27 18:21:44 Yeah. Mar 27 18:21:57 It's probably time to find out more about the behaviour expected in Capperlucia too Mar 27 18:22:17 Ah, well, I'm just going to pretend I like people Mar 27 18:22:25 * Claudia laughs Mar 27 18:22:51 I'll be busy pretending I'm not distracted by the bubbies Mar 27 18:23:28 For whose benefit? Mar 27 18:23:42 Incase it's a stoning offence Mar 27 18:24:41 Oh... no... relations between men and women are fairly strictly controlled because of the chance of creating a child, but... women with other women, no eyelids are even batted... Mar 27 18:24:56 Interesting... Mar 27 18:25:03 * Morgan nods Mar 27 18:25:22 * Claudia smirks "men with men too?" Mar 27 18:25:37 Yes, actually... Mar 27 18:25:51 Heinzharold is going to be very shocked Mar 27 18:26:12 * Morgan nods Mar 27 18:26:18 Oh yeah, definitely Mar 27 18:26:31 * Claudia sniggers Mar 27 18:26:42 He might have a sexual awakening Mar 27 18:28:04 I dunno... I think he's well and truly obsessed with Inga's Mar 27 18:29:10 Not my type, but they suit well Mar 27 18:29:54 * Morgan nods Mar 27 18:29:59 They do indeed Mar 27 18:30:14 * Morgan glances sideways at her Mar 27 18:30:25 I hear that DeeDee is getting regular letters from a woman... Mar 27 18:31:08 * Claudia doesn't respond for a fraction of a second longer than her nonchalant tone implies it should have taken Mar 27 18:31:11 Oh right? Mar 27 18:32:10 So I'm told anyway Mar 27 18:33:22 * Claudia nods. There's a pause before she says Mar 27 18:33:28 Friend? Lover? Mar 27 18:34:11 Don't know to be honest... its that Petra... Mar 27 18:34:36 Lover then. Mar 27 18:35:35 * Morgan shrugs Mar 27 18:35:37 maybe Mar 27 18:35:48 He's slept with her before Mar 27 18:35:56 She's a working girl Mar 27 18:36:23 I think she's mostly retired and overseeing younger women now Mar 27 18:36:41 * Morgan nods Mar 27 18:36:54 Aye, thats the impression I got Mar 27 18:38:16 * Claudia shrugs Mar 27 18:38:24 He's not my problem. Mar 27 18:38:45 I know that Mar 27 18:38:55 Then why did you tell me? Mar 27 18:39:06 * Claudia looks a little prickly Mar 27 18:39:53 Because you like him and I didn't want you finding out at the baptism. Mar 27 18:40:12 * Claudia shrugs "I'm over him." Mar 27 18:40:26 * Morgan looks at her for a moment Mar 27 18:40:28 huh Mar 27 18:40:34 What? Mar 27 18:40:55 Figured I'd be more upset at being lied to by you. I'll be back for handover Mar 27 18:41:05 * Morgan walks away back below deck Mar 27 18:41:54 *it's about two minutes later that a sailor comes skidding along the floor and nearly crashing in for him* Mar 27 18:42:04 Into* Mar 27 18:43:15 * Morgan grabs him, pulling him upright Mar 27 18:43:21 Steady sailor... Mar 27 18:43:24 *the sailor breathes hard, handing a note over* Mar 27 18:43:36 * Morgan takes it, looking at it Mar 27 18:43:51 *it says "I'm not lying to you. I believed it." Mar 27 18:44:12 Sent you down here that fast for this, huh Mar 27 18:44:37 S: Urgent, apparently. No one she could swap off with, my Lord Mar 27 18:45:36 No, I'm her relief in a bit. Alright, thank you. Mar 27 18:45:51 S: any reply? Mar 27 18:46:15 Just tell her understood. Mar 27 18:46:34 *The sailor nods, going above again* Mar 27 18:47:16 * Morgan goes back to his study, sitting on the couch, looking out the window Mar 27 18:48:16 *it gets light. It's just after dawn when he hears [my love, would you wake a sleeping baby to nurse, or just express?] Mar 27 18:49:32 [I'd say express, he can have it as soon as he wakes Mar 27 18:49:43 [thank you] Mar 27 18:50:28 [I could be wrong though] Mar 27 18:51:14 [it's fine, I'm just very full and he wouldn't normally wake a while yet] Mar 27 18:53:02 [I see. Generally... you don't wake a sleeping baby] Mar 27 18:53:20 [thank you, my love, that's helpful] Mar 27 18:54:35 *he can hear her quietly moving around in the bedroom* Mar 27 18:55:38 * Morgan sips his coffee Mar 27 18:55:49 [I;m in the study if you want company] Mar 27 18:56:13 * Claudia is now known as Molly Mar 27 18:56:26 [you wish me to join you?] Mar 27 18:56:38 [only if you wish to] Mar 27 18:57:40 * Molly comes in quietly, wearing the shirt he wore yesterday and carrying the bowl, a towel and the bottle to keep it in Mar 27 18:57:50 I thought you'd be on deck Mar 27 18:58:06 * Morgan shrugs Mar 27 18:58:19 I would've been. I was. Mar 27 18:59:04 Is something wrong? *she lays everything out, side on to him on the desk* Mar 27 19:00:05 I told Claudia about DeeDee possibly having a lover... she, eventually, claimed she's over him. Mar 27 19:00:44 * Molly undoes the shirt to the waist before slipping her hand in Mar 27 19:00:48 And is she? Mar 27 19:01:05 The pauses when she asked questions say otherwise to me. Mar 27 19:01:31 * Molly nods, bending over the desk Mar 27 19:01:41 She is in denial then? Mar 27 19:04:04 I think so Mar 27 19:04:12 * Molly moves the shirt off her breast. She does indeed look overfull. Mar 27 19:04:27 Have you fallen out over it? Mar 27 19:05:13 I don't appreciate my friends lying to me Mar 27 19:06:16 * Molly nods, concentrating on what she is doing, manipulating her breast just as she'd learnt from him in her dream, it dripping slowly Mar 27 19:06:54 I lied to Evie about my feelings for you a few times Mar 27 19:07:23 Thats different Mar 27 19:08:34 Why? *she exhales slowly, making a soft mmm, shuddering, which makes the milk let down* Mar 27 19:11:32 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Mar 27 20:08:05 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Mar 27 20:58:46 * Morgan (~mads@iMac-2.lan) has joined Mar 27 21:04:50 * MollyK (~igloo@CrystabllesiPad.lan) has joined Mar 27 21:05:01 [18:51:49] Molly: Why? *she exhales slowly, making a soft mmm, shuddering, which makes the milk let down* Mar 27 21:08:30 because... you've never trusted her enough to put your life in her hands, or vice versa Mar 27 21:10:20 I suppose so *she's focusing on trying to get the multiple streams into the bowl* Mar 27 21:12:03 * Morgan nods, sipping his coffee Mar 27 21:12:25 You trusted Siobahn with your life, were you entirely honest with her about your feelings for me? Mar 27 21:13:18 Also different... I trusted her with the life I didn't care about Mar 27 21:13:36 You did not trust her with mine? Mar 27 21:16:29 Do you recall a time I put her in charge of your safety? Mar 27 21:17:01 Sort of, yes Mar 27 21:18:51 Sort of? Mar 27 21:21:12 When I went to Carleon with her and Evie after you-... oh for goodness sake!... -asked me to be your mistress *she changes position a little* Mar 27 21:23:08 * Morgan frowns Mar 27 21:23:25 Right... Mar 27 21:23:34 What, my love? Mar 27 21:24:29 I don't... I didn't realise I had Mar 27 21:25:30 Not overtly perhaps Mar 27 21:26:02 * Morgan nods Mar 27 21:26:59 You hadn't intended it that way? Mar 27 21:27:53 I suppose... I did trust her enough... Mar 27 21:28:11 And you were not completely honest? Mar 27 21:28:48 * Morgan frowns Mar 27 21:28:51 You've made your point Mar 27 21:29:09 I am actually curious rather than accusing, my love Mar 27 21:29:59 * Morgan nods, sipping his coffee Mar 27 21:30:59 I owe Claudia an apology Mar 27 21:31:57 I leave that to you, my love. Might I ask what you did not say to Siobahn though? Mar 27 21:32:35 She knows very little about my past Mar 27 21:32:49 * MollyK nods Mar 27 21:33:17 It was more than you were not honest about the past than about your feelings for me at the time? Mar 27 21:33:40 * Morgan nods Mar 27 21:33:45 I suppose so Mar 27 21:33:54 * MollyK nods Mar 27 21:34:39 You told her you could not stop relentlessly fantasising about having me naked in your bed, hmm? *she giggles, still expressing* Mar 27 21:35:00 Thats not exactly what I said Mar 27 21:35:10 No, I'm not surprised! Mar 27 21:36:25 * Morgan nods, checking the time Mar 27 21:37:00 It does seem trusting me to her care didn't entirely go to plan! My innocent mind did not survive the trip! *he has forty minutes yet* Mar 27 21:38:12 No... I had noticed Mar 27 21:38:24 * MollyK blushes, giggling Mar 27 21:38:32 I thought you might have Mar 27 21:39:30 * Morgan nods, sipping his coffee Mar 27 21:40:46 *there's a brief tap on the door before it's opened. She quickly pulls the shirt over her breast* Mar 27 21:42:54 *HH comes in, glancing at Morgan before his eyes fall on Molly, taking in the shirt with the rolled up sleeves unbuttoned to just below her navel. He smiles, nodding* yeah, man, rolled sleeves... it's hot on women too. Mar 27 21:43:32 * Morgan nods Mar 27 21:43:34 Yeah Mar 27 21:43:48 * MollyK blushes hard, glancing at Morgan a moment. She looks bashful rather than offended Mar 27 21:44:50 HH: Looks like I gotta get Inga in one o' my shirts... gotta be one o' th' sexiest outfits I've seen on a woman. Mar 27 21:45:06 * Morgan sips his coffee Mar 27 21:45:08 Dress shirt Mar 27 21:45:22 * MollyK shakes her head "You should see some of my lingerie!" Mar 27 21:46:15 HH lets his hair fall in his face a moment, looking at her: I should, should I? *he grins at Morgan* dress shirt? Mar 27 21:46:39 * Morgan nods Mar 27 21:46:45 Yeah, dress shirt Mar 27 21:47:04 HH: like our uniform shirts? Mar 27 21:47:11 * Morgan nods Mar 27 21:47:13 yep Mar 27 21:47:37 *HH nods, looking at her* Yeah, reck'n that'd look good Mar 27 21:48:11 * Morgan nods, sipping his coffee Mar 27 21:48:17 * MollyK blushes again "Stop flirting with me or I will squirt you with breast milk!" Mar 27 21:49:09 * Morgan chuckles Mar 27 21:49:19 I'd stop man, those things are loaded... Mar 27 21:49:29 *HH laughs* I've had some rejections in my time, but ne'er that one! Mar 27 21:49:50 * MollyK smiles at Morgan "only my right side now!" Mar 27 21:53:11 * Morgan nods, finishing his coffee Mar 27 21:53:19 *HH spots the bowl on the table* Ahh I'm interrupting yer milking... I assume it's yers an' not his, any'ow Mar 27 21:54:01 * MollyK gains a look of mischief "I never have that in a bowl, just right from the source." Mar 27 21:54:33 *HH looks like he hasn't got a quick come back, mouth opening and closing* Mar 27 21:54:35 * Morgan blushes Mar 27 21:55:22 * MollyK smiles brightly "enjoy your watch, gentlemen..." Mar 27 21:56:20 HH: Uhhh Yeah... bye... *he looks a bit bemused* Mar 27 21:56:44 * Morgan moves to the door, pushing HeinzHarold through in front of him Mar 27 21:56:51 * MollyK is now known as HH Mar 27 21:56:58 * HH goes as directed Mar 27 21:59:17 Go get some breakfast man Mar 27 21:59:49 * HH nods, going Mar 27 21:59:59 * Morgan heads up on deck Mar 27 22:00:14 * HH is now known as Claudia Mar 27 22:01:04 * Claudia is where she was before Mar 27 22:01:49 * Morgan squares his shoulders, walking straight up to her Mar 27 22:02:11 * Claudia watches him, not on edge but not giving much away Mar 27 22:02:57 * Morgan stops in front of her, his face sincere Mar 27 22:03:27 I'm sorry. I was wrong to accuse you of lying to me. I'm out of sorts, but thats no excuse. Mar 27 22:06:23 * Claudia surprisingly spontaneously hugs him Mar 27 22:06:45 * Morgan hugs her firmly Mar 27 22:07:35 You free to talk when your watch is done? Mar 27 22:08:07 Aye, I'll look in on them and let them know, but yeah Mar 27 22:08:22 * Claudia lets go Mar 27 22:08:59 If there's something on your mind you need to square away before command, go do it. I can wait here a bit longer Mar 27 22:09:53 No, I'm alright. Mar 27 22:10:06 * Claudia shrugs Mar 27 22:10:23 It's a long time to be stood around brooding, that's all Mar 27 22:10:57 I'm not brooding. Besides, this... this is good for my mind Mar 27 22:11:07 * Claudia nods Mar 27 22:12:10 Alright *she checks her pocket watch* nothing to report, night was the same as usual, set off fine, good weather, full compliment for the watch. Should be an easy one Mar 27 22:14:07 * Morgan nods Mar 27 22:14:14 In that case... I relieve you. Mar 27 22:14:31 * Claudia nods Mar 27 22:14:39 Alright. See you later Mar 27 22:15:36 * Morgan nods, walking the deck and checking in with each of the crew, giving commands as needed Mar 27 22:16:21 * Claudia is now known as HH Mar 27 22:16:43 * HH reports for duty with two minutes and a bacon sandwich to spare Mar 27 22:19:02 * Morgan sets him working with the lines for the sails, making sure they're set properly Mar 27 22:22:29 * HH , like the rest of the crew, get on with their work Mar 27 22:24:28 * Morgan hums to himself, before calling up for a report from the man in the nest Mar 27 22:31:41 *he reports that everything is fine* Mar 27 22:32:51 * Morgan nods, moving to put his hand on the mainmast for a moment before heading back towards the wheelman Mar 27 22:36:22 *the watch continues peacefully, but it's definitely getting warmer each day. The crew seem happy though. He isn't interrupted at all, just able to enjoy a very easy day Captaining* Mar 27 22:37:38 * Morgan is clearly enjoying himself Mar 27 22:38:23 * HH joins him as soon as he's handed over to Kinter who has the afternoon watch Mar 27 22:38:45 Gotta be one of the easiest ones I've ever done Mar 27 22:40:01 * Morgan nods Mar 27 22:40:07 Smooth sailing... Mar 27 22:41:50 * HH nods, grinning "yep. Pretty lassies down below waitin'" Mar 27 22:42:54 * Morgan nods Mar 27 22:42:58 I'll be cutting out Mar 27 22:43:53 * HH grins "If I'd seen Inga lookin' like that I would be too" Mar 27 22:44:16 * Morgan nods, heading for his study Mar 27 22:44:44 * HH watches him "Alright, what's going on? Nightmares back?" Mar 27 22:45:40 No... why? Mar 27 22:45:55 Y' seem preoccupied Mar 27 22:50:47 I upset Claudia. I need to make it right. Mar 27 22:51:06 * HH nods Mar 27 22:51:14 Alright, man Mar 27 22:52:15 *they arrive at the study fine, Molly, Inga, and the children there* Mar 27 22:52:54 * Morgan goes to Molly, kissing her crown before doing the same with the children Mar 27 22:53:15 V: Vati, I drank the milk! Mar 27 22:53:55 Again? Mar 27 22:54:06 *Varick nods* Mar 27 22:54:54 *Amir is on Molly's hip* Mar 27 22:55:31 How come? Mar 27 22:56:20 *Molly smiles* Because your youngest son does not believe in taking milk from a cup if my bubbies are in view! Mar 27 22:57:26 Ah, I see... waste not want not then... Mar 27 22:57:49 V: it is better than goat's milk Mar 27 22:58:30 *Inga looks at Morgan* Betuana says Molly is what they call a Super Milker in Capperlucia Mar 27 22:58:45 Uhhh.. a what? Mar 27 22:58:53 *Molly blushes* It sounds like something my Father would call one of his cows! Mar 27 22:59:51 I: It means she makes a lot of milk very easily and responds quickly when the baby nurses more Mar 27 23:00:37 $reckon she's not counting extra-curricular activities?$ Mar 27 23:00:55 $probably$ Mar 27 23:01:01 I see... that makes sense Mar 27 23:01:50 M: I thought it might be from the magic, but the volume is definitely increasing and I haven't used any since that first time Mar 27 23:02:38 * Morgan nods Mar 27 23:02:43 Sounds like she's right then Mar 27 23:03:01 [I'm going to go talk to Claudia. Set things right] Mar 27 23:03:19 M: I was wondering about using the magic to reduce it a little Mar 27 23:03:34 [oh, so soon? Alright, my love] Mar 27 23:04:43 Why? Mar 27 23:04:58 M: I don't need so much Mar 27 23:05:00 [I said I would. I'll not be too long] Mar 27 23:05:26 right... we'll talk about it in a bit? I've got to talk to someone Mar 27 23:05:32 V: I'll drink it, Mama! Inga will help too! Mar 27 23:06:10 M: *she nods at Morgan* yes, I'd do and do things if I was you! Mar 27 23:06:59 I: I could have it in coffee if that stops it feeling wasteful, Molly? Mar 27 23:07:02 * Morgan nods Mar 27 23:07:05 I won't be long Mar 27 23:07:28 $escape, man. Before my wife gets any weirder$ Mar 27 23:08:51 $Best get used to that, if they're to be raising baerns alongside eachother...$ Mar 27 23:09:03 * Morgan moves to the door, slipping out before going looking for Claudia Mar 27 23:09:11 * HH is now known as Claudia Mar 27 23:09:21 * Claudia is found in the dinning room Mar 27 23:09:39 hey Mar 27 23:10:04 Hey. Do you want to go to my cabin? Mar 27 23:10:47 Only if you feel we need to Mar 27 23:11:29 * Claudia nods, taking their lunch and coffee. The cabin is more clean and tidy than he's used to her space being Mar 27 23:13:11 * Claudia sits on the bed. There's a second bed opposite, or a single chair Mar 27 23:13:33 What did you want to say? Mar 27 23:13:45 * Morgan sits opposite her Mar 27 23:14:27 I said what I wanted to. I was wrong to accuse you of lying, and I'm owning that Mar 27 23:14:35 * Claudia nods Mar 27 23:14:59 I didn't purposefully lie, I did think I was over it, but... shit. Mar 27 23:16:25 But you're not? Mar 27 23:16:43 No *she sighs* turns out I'm not Mar 27 23:17:29 * Morgan nods Mar 27 23:17:47 I'd say he was a good match for you if he wasn't a man... and worse... an army brat Mar 27 23:20:14 Oh yeah, if he'd been a woman... Mar 27 23:21:19 Still army though Mar 27 23:22:27 * Claudia nods Mar 27 23:23:44 That's not ideal. Sorgi's Vaticine, that should be a deal breaker Mar 27 23:24:42 Turns out my prejudice for those who weren't worthy of sailing is stronger than that toward the vaticine Mar 27 23:24:51 * Claudia laughs Mar 27 23:25:50 I still don't want a relationship with DeeDee though Mar 27 23:27:56 * Morgan nods Mar 27 23:28:11 I didn't want to upset you... I just wanted you to be forewarned Mar 27 23:29:33 * Claudia nods Mar 27 23:30:17 He's free to see who he wants. I hope he'll be happy. There's just a little misplaced jealousy, you know? Mar 27 23:30:54 * Morgan nods Mar 27 23:31:27 Yeah, I know. Imagine how this'd be if you'd not started working through the attraction to him... Mar 27 23:32:22 * Claudia nods Mar 27 23:32:32 Yep. Down to you that I did Mar 27 23:32:46 * Morgan shrugs Mar 27 23:32:59 I just... pushed you in a direction to start Mar 27 23:33:06 * Claudia shrugs Mar 27 23:34:04 It's not like jealousy like with Hannalore and Federest. It's more like I know he can't and shouldn't be with me anyway, but it still kinda niggles. Mar 27 23:34:26 Why can't he? Mar 27 23:35:49 Because I don't want a relationship, I'm not sticking around anywhere to have a relationship, and frankly, I don't like the way I think about him Mar 27 23:36:13 Its alright, y'know... Mar 27 23:36:24 What? Mar 27 23:36:35 The way you think about him Mar 27 23:37:02 after what happened with Heike in Paan? Seriously? Mar 27 23:37:09 *she drinks some coffee* Mar 27 23:37:19 * Morgan nods Mar 27 23:39:12 Of course it is. He's stirred something in you you thought, and -wanted- to be dead... given everything thats happened, how the fuck were you supposed to handle that? Mar 27 23:40:05 It's fucking bizarre. It's not like he's significantly more attractive than other men we know Mar 27 23:40:36 * Morgan shrugs Mar 27 23:41:06 I can't say its the sort of thing I notice Mar 27 23:41:51 I don't get what it is about him. It's fucking annoying that I have no control Mar 27 23:43:34 * Morgan shrugs Mar 27 23:44:23 * Claudia eats some bread "you had that with Molly?" Mar 27 23:44:57 * Morgan sips his coffee, looking thoughtful Mar 27 23:45:29 To an extent... I felt guilty as hell, like I was betraying Dietlinde for having -any- sort of feelings for her Mar 27 23:46:09 Like you just couldn't stop the feelings no matter how much you tried? Mar 27 23:47:49 I was about to say its different but it isn't really, is it? Neither of them have made any sort of demand on us romantically, but both have been there with care and support without judgement Mar 27 23:48:00 * Claudia nods Mar 27 23:49:14 If I asked him to, I reckon he'd walk over hot coals. Maybe even if it just looked like I needed him to. And it annoys me. Just stop being so perfect and be flawed so I can remember why I hate men, you know? Mar 27 23:49:52 * Morgan nods Mar 27 23:50:00 But he won't. He can't. Mar 27 23:50:23 He might mis-step at some point Mar 27 23:50:52 I'm rather doubting it... he might make a mistake but... I think we've seen the truth of his character, don't you? Mar 27 23:51:13 Maybe I only need him to make a small mistake Mar 27 23:52:26 Do you feel like that'd be enough? Mar 27 23:52:33 * Claudia shrugs Mar 27 23:53:05 I don't know. Which is scary Mar 27 23:53:33 * Morgan nods Mar 27 23:53:46 Yeah, I would imagine so Mar 27 23:54:13 You think I'm making myself a problem by trying to feel nothing? Mar 27 23:55:45 Yes. From experience, I can tell you all that will bring you is misery. You'll feel it anyway, and then you'll be angry at yourself for it as well, not to mention the energy you've spent trying to not feel it. Mar 27 23:56:23 Are you sure there is absolutely no way to stop it? You tried as hard as you could? Mar 27 23:58:05 * Morgan nods Mar 27 23:58:10 I did. Mar 27 23:58:20 Why not leave?
