**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Apr 29 00:00:35 2023 Apr 29 00:00:35 In some ways Apr 29 00:01:17 * Morgan nods, looking round as he walks Apr 29 00:03:24 In some ways not Apr 29 00:04:00 Why? Apr 29 00:06:15 Oh, I could have stood to have made love all over our little Capperlucian homestead all day Apr 29 00:06:53 * Morgan sighs Apr 29 00:06:56 You are disappointed Apr 29 00:08:27 No, my love, that was wonderful. I rather love it when you manhandle me so Apr 29 00:08:55 * Morgan nods Apr 29 00:10:38 Are -you- disappointed? Apr 29 00:11:09 * Morgan shrugs Apr 29 00:11:12 A little Apr 29 00:13:04 Why, my love? Apr 29 00:13:22 It is not how I wanted to spend this morning Apr 29 00:14:14 The arguing, or educating a bird about human mating calls? Apr 29 00:14:34 The arguing, obviously Apr 29 00:15:11 * MollyK nods Apr 29 00:15:15 Me either Apr 29 00:15:42 Although, I also did not wish to teach a talking bird to curse Apr 29 00:15:53 No... Apr 29 00:17:47 How did you plan to spend your morning? Apr 29 00:18:21 Doesn't matter now Apr 29 00:19:36 It does to me, my love Apr 29 00:21:10 I looked forward to spending a few hours making love, behind the waterfall, in the hammock. But that wasn't to be. Apr 29 00:22:41 Perhaps we can prevail upon our friends to make that a reality before we go Apr 29 00:23:22 * Morgan shrugs Apr 29 00:23:25 You'll be busy Apr 29 00:24:49 I will make the time. If we are never coming back, I don't want to leave without those memories Apr 29 00:25:06 * Morgan shrugs Apr 29 00:25:07 We'll see Apr 29 00:27:09 That is a comment on my time, not your desires? Apr 29 00:28:00 Mostly. I'm still feeling... sore. Apr 29 00:29:21 * MollyK looks sad Apr 29 00:29:37 It is not so easy as "leave it at the house?" Apr 29 00:30:09 Not when you're talking about part of it thats upset me, no Apr 29 00:32:04 * MollyK nods Apr 29 00:32:17 I will stop then Apr 29 00:32:32 * Morgan nods Apr 29 00:34:49 Instead I am going to think about the logistics of having sex with a hammock involved Apr 29 00:35:08 * Morgan nods Apr 29 00:35:09 Alright Apr 29 00:36:20 * MollyK spends much of the walk smiling, and they reach Lamore easily Apr 29 00:37:18 * Morgan looks up at the wall Apr 29 00:39:07 No... its not any less daunting Apr 29 00:45:29 * MollyK smiles Apr 29 00:45:34 That is huge! Apr 29 00:46:12 * Morgan nods, looking carefully at it Apr 29 00:46:25 *it looks no different* Apr 29 00:47:40 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Apr 29 00:49:25 * MollyK has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 29 10:43:11 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Apr 29 10:44:09 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 29 10:45:45 *the people immediately come to want to talk to them, congratulating his climb, greeting the ambassador. There's no sign of the man whose son makes cribs, or KaeLani Apr 29 10:46:39 * Morgan thanks them, introducing them to Molly Apr 29 10:49:57 Man: will you be climbing, Ambassador? Apr 29 10:50:01 * MollyK smiles Apr 29 10:50:40 Only if it was to save the lives of my loved ones. I do not enjoy it, nor am I good at it! Apr 29 10:51:26 *this makes the men laugh, but it's not that sort of laughing that usually comes when men find a woman attractive* Apr 29 10:52:03 * Morgan smiles slightly, still watching the wall Apr 29 10:53:05 Man: are you going to try again? Apr 29 10:55:56 I was thinking I might... I know I won't manage it, but I'll try all the same Apr 29 10:58:00 *he looks impressed. The talk starts to spread that Morgan will try again, and so people start to gather around to watch Apr 29 10:58:52 [ah shit, should've have said that] Apr 29 10:59:37 * Morgan moves closer to the wall, carefully planning a route, taking note of handholds, not relying on his previous route or success before going to tie in to the safety rope Apr 29 11:00:28 * MollyK stands with the crowd, watching him Apr 29 11:01:21 * Morgan speaks quietly as he moves close to the wall Apr 29 11:02:04 Alright then... I respect the challenge you hold even more than I did... so lets see how far we can go today, alright? Apr 29 11:02:12 * Morgan starts climbing carefully Apr 29 11:03:09 *the wall is different, not so much at the bottom, but past half way there's no relying on how it was before* Apr 29 11:03:37 * Morgan smiles, stopping to plan his route once more Apr 29 11:04:03 Yeah, you're a new challenge, I get that... I'm not taking you for granted... Apr 29 11:04:08 *people cheer for his and encourage him, Molly included* Apr 29 11:05:28 * Morgan continues climbing, slowly, carefully Apr 29 11:06:28 *he gets higher and higher. It's hard, mentally and physically* Apr 29 11:07:28 * Morgan stops at the next opportunity, assessing his route before spending a few moments calming himself, relaxing Apr 29 11:09:04 *the shouting for him continues* Apr 29 11:09:23 * Morgan smiles, starting to move again Apr 29 11:09:43 So let me tell you... whenever you throw me off, I'm enjoying this... Apr 29 11:10:50 *he starts to feel an odd sense of being watched, not from below, but almost like the rock itself* Apr 29 11:12:14 * Morgan continues to climb, taking nothing for granted Apr 29 11:12:37 Y'know, I climb for the challenge, sure, but mostly for the love of climbing... Apr 29 11:13:29 *there's still that feeling Apr 29 11:14:42 * Morgan pauses, assessing his route once more before continuing Apr 29 11:15:58 *this time, he manages to get to the top on the first try. Below, there is massive applause and cheering* Apr 29 11:16:22 * Morgan sits down on the top, dangling his legs over, patting the rock gently Apr 29 11:16:55 Thats the thing isn't it my friend? They reach the top and think you're conquered... they don't realise you still deserve respect Apr 29 11:18:42 * Morgan sits there for a few minutes, looking down the wall before getting up, untying himself and making his way back down the easier route Apr 29 11:19:12 [Do me a favour love... have a feel of that wall and tell me if its... if it has any sign of life] Apr 29 11:19:46 *he feels the prickle of magic* Apr 29 11:20:09 [interesting... yes, it does] Apr 29 11:20:17 [thats what I thought] Apr 29 11:20:56 * MollyK is waiting for him when he gets back, immediately putting her arms around his neck and kissing him Apr 29 11:21:04 * Morgan blushes Apr 29 11:25:11 Well done, my love Apr 29 11:25:37 Thank you blossom... will you excuse me a moment, I... I want to go thank the wall Apr 29 11:28:22 * MollyK nods, letting him go Apr 29 11:29:10 * Morgan makes his way to the wall, putting both hands flat to it before pressing his forehead against it, speaking very quietly Apr 29 11:29:28 Thank you. I enjoyed spending time with you. Apr 29 11:32:54 *he feels an odd sense of peace* Apr 29 11:34:40 * MollyK has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 29 11:35:17 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 29 11:35:42 Well done, my love Apr 29 11:35:42 Thank you blossom... will you excuse me a moment, I... I want to go thank the wall Apr 29 11:35:42 * MollyK nods, letting him go Apr 29 11:35:42 * Morgan makes his way to the wall, putting both hands flat to it before pressing his forehead against it, speaking very quietly Apr 29 11:35:42 Thank you. I enjoyed spending time with you. Apr 29 11:35:45 *he feels an odd sense of peace* Apr 29 11:36:33 * Morgan pushes off from the wall, smiling as he goes back to Molly Apr 29 11:39:16 *all the men here congratulate him as he passes. Molly looks proud Apr 29 11:41:25 * Morgan smiles, putting an arm around her Apr 29 11:41:31 well... Apr 29 11:42:37 * MollyK puts her arm around his back Apr 29 11:42:43 You did it. Twice Apr 29 11:45:09 * Morgan nods Apr 29 11:45:12 It let me Apr 29 11:47:11 * MollyK smiles Apr 29 11:47:36 Even when you have succeeded, it is hard for you to accept your own skill Apr 29 11:48:11 [That wall... it changed. Its aware. If it didn't want me to, I wouldn't have managed it] Apr 29 11:50:35 [or maybe you are so good it couldn't stop you] Apr 29 11:51:06 [It threw me off plenty last time] Apr 29 11:52:59 [alright, my love] Apr 29 11:53:29 * MollyK looks proud again when everyone comes to praise her husband's success Apr 29 11:53:37 * Morgan looks quite humbled Apr 29 11:56:13 *this goes on even during the time they're eating lunch, the atmosphere lively and excited. People all want to talk to them. By the time they've finished eating and it's almost one, someone thinks to ask Apr 29 11:56:23 Man: how did you do it? Apr 29 11:57:14 * Morgan smiles slightly Apr 29 11:57:15 Carefully Apr 29 11:58:34 Man: noone s ever done it twice Apr 29 11:58:47 * Morgan nods, looking up at the wall Apr 29 11:59:39 I think... the temptation is to think because its been done once, you just have to do it again... that wall commands respect the first time, but it -demands- it the second. Apr 29 12:01:41 Man: *he looks up at it too* I don't think anyone will manage it aga8 Apr 29 12:01:47 Again* Apr 29 12:02:37 No? Apr 29 12:03:31 Man: noone's done it before Apr 29 12:04:36 * Morgan shrugs Apr 29 12:04:45 Noones done anything before until the first time its done Apr 29 12:07:53 Man: will you climb it again? Apr 29 12:09:26 I don't know. There's a few other things I want to do while we're here... I think climbing it twice is more than most could ask for Apr 29 12:13:24 *The man nods* definitely Apr 29 12:14:11 * Morgan watches the wall for a moment before nodding, going back to his drink Apr 29 12:15:15 [you're considering it...] Apr 29 12:16:12 [No... not really. I might attempt it again, but only for the challenge. I don't -need- to conquer it again] Apr 29 12:17:13 [no?] Apr 29 12:17:51 * MollyK shuffles in her seat a little Apr 29 12:18:11 [no. I understand it now] Apr 29 12:18:32 Uinise was going to commemorate my reaching the top in the museum... Apr 29 12:22:20 * MollyK smiles, distracted Apr 29 12:22:25 That will be nice Apr 29 12:23:13 [what's wrong?] Apr 29 12:23:42 Its a shame KaeLani isn't here... she'd have liked that I think Apr 29 12:26:33 [I think it's time I go back to the house to express really] Apr 29 12:26:45 Yes, that is a shame Apr 29 12:26:54 [alright love] Apr 29 12:28:51 * MollyK says goodbye to all and sundry before they make their way back down the hill Apr 29 12:29:09 It's much easier when he is with me and I can just nurse him Apr 29 12:29:23 * Morgan nods Apr 29 12:29:28 I imagine it is Apr 29 12:32:00 What will we do now you have become legendary in Capperlucia? Apr 29 12:32:51 I doubt that very much Apr 29 12:34:42 You'll be in the museum, the only one to climb it twice Apr 29 12:35:22 For now Apr 29 12:36:53 You will always be the first Apr 29 12:38:39 * Morgan nods Apr 29 12:39:47 * MollyK smiles Apr 29 12:39:47 That I will Apr 29 12:40:17 It's interesting that it is somewhat alive Apr 29 12:40:26 * Morgan nods Apr 29 12:40:41 The two who climbed it before me said that it wasn't the same the second time... they weren't wrong... Apr 29 12:43:16 How so? Apr 29 12:43:58 It wasn't the same... the route was different, like I was climbing it for the first time, more and more so as I got higher Apr 29 12:46:37 That is strange Apr 29 12:48:13 * Morgan nods Apr 29 12:48:22 As I got closer to the top, I felt like I was being watched Apr 29 12:50:48 Well, you were Apr 29 12:51:07 No, not by any of you... Apr 29 12:53:40 By what, my love? Apr 29 12:54:22 The wall Apr 29 12:55:34 * MollyK nods Apr 29 12:55:39 Alright Apr 29 12:56:03 * Morgan looks round as they walk Apr 29 13:01:12 **it's all very green and peaceful* Apr 29 13:01:40 I don't think they will be back before five. We could nap? Apr 29 13:03:16 If you want... I was thinking I might swim Apr 29 13:05:01 * MollyK has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 29 13:15:31 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 29 13:16:19 * MollyK nods Apr 29 13:16:30 Alright, my love Apr 29 13:18:06 * MollyK opts to express, then put on more cream before napping in the hammock with the brim of her hat pulled low whilst he swims. It's peaceful, their beach and house quiet Apr 29 13:19:17 * Morgan gets out, sighing before building a little pile of sticks, moving away and concentrating hard, trying to see quite how big an effect he can have Apr 29 13:22:00 *the fire comes immediately, about eight feet in diameter and as tall Apr 29 13:22:58 * Morgan whistles slightly Apr 29 13:23:03 Well, that was... impressive Apr 29 13:26:52 * MollyK has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 29 13:27:25 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 29 13:27:51 *it doesn't wake Molly* Apr 29 13:28:33 * Morgan spends some time practicing with a combination of sword and magic Apr 29 13:31:02 *he can sense that he is getting stronger through the practice* Apr 29 13:31:57 * Morgan picks up his effort, training as hard as he would when he was in the navy Apr 29 13:34:31 *it's about thirty minutes later when he feels like he's being watched Apr 29 13:35:22 * Morgan casts about with his magic, looking for new heat sources Apr 29 13:37:24 *there's nothing new, just his wife standing watching his training with a smile* Apr 29 13:37:41 What? Apr 29 13:37:50 Oh don't stop on my account, I was getting much enjoyment from watching you Apr 29 13:39:23 * Morgan nods slightly, throwing himself into the training once more Apr 29 13:41:33 * MollyK sits herself on the sand at a safe distance Apr 29 13:44:10 * Morgan ends his training by trying to make as big an explosion as possible Apr 29 13:45:22 *it is massive, and very loud* Apr 29 13:45:57 * Morgan watches the cloud, clearly surprised Apr 29 13:46:25 * MollyK laughs Apr 29 13:46:45 That was a rather spectacular eruption, my love! Apr 29 13:51:48 Yeah... Apr 29 13:53:03 You are stronger Apr 29 13:53:08 * Morgan nods Apr 29 13:53:10 Seems so Apr 29 13:53:42 That is good Apr 29 13:54:06 * Morgan nods Apr 29 13:54:07 Aye Apr 29 13:55:53 * MollyK sighs, looking out to see Apr 29 13:56:05 One day... one day it will be needed Apr 29 13:56:11 * Morgan nods Apr 29 13:56:15 Aye. Somehow. Apr 29 13:58:55 * MollyK nods Apr 29 13:59:01 But not today Apr 29 13:59:09 No... not today Apr 29 14:02:15 * MollyK stands, brushing off her hands and skirt Apr 29 14:02:34 Would you like to cuddle a while? Apr 29 14:04:39 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:04:40 Can do Apr 29 14:04:54 Hammock or bed? Apr 29 14:04:59 * Morgan smiles Apr 29 14:05:00 Hammock Apr 29 14:05:19 * MollyK takes his hand, leading them there Apr 29 14:05:48 You could mount one in the captain's quarters Apr 29 14:06:03 Aye, maybe Apr 29 14:06:09 * Morgan gets in, getting comfortable Apr 29 14:07:58 * MollyK gets in, nestling against his chest Apr 29 14:09:05 Strange to think our time here is already half way through Apr 29 14:09:15 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:09:19 aye Apr 29 14:11:47 And soon we'll be off again, to Jura, then Morgan's Rock Apr 29 14:12:51 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:12:54 Then... home. Apr 29 14:14:26 Well, then Catterick and Insel, -then- home Apr 29 14:14:37 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:16:48 And by then, we will be well into the spring..l Apr 29 14:17:22 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:17:26 Yes, it will Apr 29 14:18:37 And then, only one season separates us Apr 29 14:19:15 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:19:27 We'll have lots to do in the meantime anyway Apr 29 14:21:12 * MollyK nods Apr 29 14:21:20 So much. As always Apr 29 14:21:59 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:22:03 Such is our duty Apr 29 14:25:12 * MollyK nods Apr 29 14:25:36 Mmhmm... it's nice with you like this Apr 29 14:26:57 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:26:58 Yes it is Apr 29 14:30:56 * MollyK stays there quietly in the sunshine, fingers gently stroking his chest. They like together like this a while, and they don't talk about the row that had happened that morning, or her only having this afternoon. The waves continue on the beautiful beach they'd long imagined coming to, hammock gently swaying. Apr 29 14:31:10 One day, we'll tell our grandchildren of this place Apr 29 14:31:39 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:31:41 I hope so Apr 29 14:34:16 We will. Let's have faith in that. Ten children, so twenty or more grandchildren, hmm? Apr 29 14:35:26 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:35:32 Something like, yes Apr 29 14:37:44 * MollyK smiles Apr 29 14:38:29 Mmhmm... imagine the gatherings on the lawn at Die Dauerhaftigkeit. Our children, and theirs... maybe even -theirs-. So much joy and love. Apr 29 14:40:06 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:41:07 * MollyK smiles happily Apr 29 14:41:23 A great Koertig dynasty to span the ages Apr 29 14:41:41 That'd be something Apr 29 14:43:43 * MollyK nods Apr 29 14:45:05 And they would say "where are Oma and Opa?"... And their parents would shrug, giving each other knowing smiles. Someone would say "they've gone for a nap. Old people need their Quiet Hour too"... Apr 29 14:45:37 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:47:16 * MollyK puts her fingers between his Apr 29 14:47:29 But we wouldn't be napping, oh no Apr 29 14:47:40 No? Apr 29 14:49:18 No... we'd be doing something else entirely Apr 29 14:49:38 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:49:40 Sounds feasible Apr 29 14:50:17 We would be much older. I would have lots of marks from carrying your children Apr 29 14:50:34 mmhmm Apr 29 14:52:36 That won't put you off? Although, I might be able to heal them Apr 29 14:53:18 No, it won't Apr 29 14:55:47 That's good... I look forward to those peaceful days ahead Apr 29 14:56:15 * Morgan nods Apr 29 14:58:22 * MollyK lies beside him then, holding his hand and listening to the waves, their little secluded paradise warm and quiet otherwise Apr 29 14:58:43 *several minutes later she says "I love you, liebes herz" Apr 29 14:59:42 And I you Apr 29 15:01:35 About this morning... Apr 29 15:01:55 * Morgan sighs Apr 29 15:01:57 Yes? Apr 29 15:02:08 When I asked if it was a command, you kissed me... Apr 29 15:02:35 Yes... Apr 29 15:03:54 That was unexpected Apr 29 15:05:05 * Morgan nods Apr 29 15:07:01 Would you tell me what it was for, what it meant? Apr 29 15:09:56 Even when I'm desperately hurt and very angry with you, I still love you. Leave it at that, because I don't want to argue again. Apr 29 15:11:56 * MollyK nods Apr 29 15:12:04 Alright, my love Apr 29 15:25:06 * MollyK has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 29 15:25:29 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Apr 29 16:29:32 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Apr 29 16:50:47 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 29 16:51:56 *he hears a whistle around four, Heinzharold's whistle to convey he is present* Apr 29 16:52:49 They're back Apr 29 16:53:20 * MollyK kisses him softly "I've enjoyed being with you" Apr 29 16:53:40 * Morgan nods Apr 29 16:53:42 Its been nice Apr 29 16:54:54 * MollyK whispers "I still intend to make you spend here before we go home" Apr 29 16:55:45 * Morgan nods Apr 29 16:55:47 Alright Apr 29 16:57:25 * MollyK smirks, clearly preparing to spring up Apr 29 16:57:57 It'd be the first time someone other than you has made you do so! *she gives him a look of mischief* Apr 29 16:58:22 * Morgan shrugs Apr 29 16:58:29 You're half right Apr 29 16:58:48 * MollyK doesn't get up, now looking intrigued Apr 29 16:58:51 Oh? Apr 29 17:00:35 The phrase keeping my hands to myself isn't quite accurate Apr 29 17:00:55 * MollyK looks more intrigued Apr 29 17:01:00 Tell me more... Apr 29 17:01:36 Not much to tell Apr 29 17:01:48 * MollyK watches him Apr 29 17:02:11 I still want to know Apr 29 17:02:51 well... aside from certain dreams... you'd be the first... Apr 29 17:03:51 Oh, when you dreamt of me teaching you to control your dreams? Apr 29 17:05:23 * Morgan nods Apr 29 17:06:41 But you must have done so in the navy too Apr 29 17:08:14 Not that I recall.

He sees how Molly gets near enough for Emil to hear her voice before the crying starts Apr 29 17:19:33 * Morgan chuckles Apr 29 17:22:12 * HH puts Varick down, sending him indoors before stretching and looking at Morgan "yer kid's gettin' heavy" Apr 29 17:23:26 He's getting big Apr 29 17:25:09 * HH nods Apr 29 17:25:21 Both been good as gold.

Apr 29 19:27:58 It's the goddess of Capperlucia Apr 29 19:28:55 I see... its very pretty. Thank you Varick Apr 29 19:33:29 * Varick nods Apr 29 19:35:24 She is called Tina Atu'a Fafine. The lady at the stall said she makes fields good, and if you bury her at a house, the house will be fertile. Apr 29 19:36:12 * Morgan nods Apr 29 19:36:15 *Molly glances at Morgan's expression* Apr 29 19:36:19 We'll take that help, won't we...

Apr 29 19:59:43 * Varick settles down, whispering as his brother is sleeping Apr 29 19:59:46 No Apr 29 20:00:05 Then we haven't done anything that would upset him... Apr 29 20:00:27 That's good, I don't want to go to hell Apr 29 20:00:38 * Morgan nods Apr 29 20:00:47 I don't think you need to worry about it Apr 29 20:01:05 * Varick nods, closing his eyes Apr 29 20:01:49 That's good. I want to go to be in heaven with Mae and Jana one day Apr 29 20:02:12 * Morgan nods Apr 29 20:02:16 Not for a long time though Apr 29 20:02:48 Not until I'm reaaaaaaally old. Older than Grandpa Apr 29 20:02:57 * Morgan nods Apr 29 20:03:00 Quite right Apr 29 20:03:24 Good night Vati Apr 29 20:03:45 Good night my son Apr 29 20:04:24 * Varick is soon asleep, the others preparing dinner Apr 29 20:05:45 * Morgan goes back to join them Apr 29 20:06:19 I: *she looks at Morgan* we absolutely did not have sex on your desk!

Apr 29 20:08:20 * Morgan looks at her earnestly Apr 29 20:08:29 * Inga looks worried Apr 29 20:08:51 No, it wasn't supposed to be a lie, just a joke, Apr 29 20:09:07 * Morgan grins Apr 29 20:09:09 I know love Apr 29 20:09:46 HH: $don't make my wife pee her pants, yeah?$ Apr 29 20:10:03 $just keeping in practice$ Apr 29 20:10:03 Are you sure?

Apr 29 20:19:27 * Inga is now known as Molly Apr 29 20:19:44 That doesn't sound like the Capperlucians to me? Apr 29 20:20:21 Sounds like the Eisens... Apr 29 20:20:30 * Molly nods Apr 29 20:20:41 I: it's very different, isn't it? Apr 29 20:20:47 * Morgan nods Apr 29 20:21:04 We'll see, if word reaches anyone in charge that is Apr 29 20:21:16 It will Apr 29 20:22:32 Reckon?

Its just a pastime Apr 29 20:33:47 * Molly has quit (Read error: Apr 29 20:35:17 Oh I know it will, because I cannot wait to boast about my husband's skill Apr 29 20:35:27 * Morgan blushes Apr 29 20:36:06 *HH sniggers, and Molly chucks a bit of bread at him* Shut up, Heinzharold, not like that Apr 29 20:36:37 *Inga laughs* I think it's nice she'll tell them what you did Apr 29 20:37:11 * Morgan nods, absently tracing the ridges of skin on one of his arms Apr 29 20:37:24 Almost surprised you didn't hear the crowd cheering Apr 29 20:38:26 I: I haven't seen the wall, is it high? Apr 29 20:38:42 * Morgan nods Apr 29 20:38:43 Very Apr 29 20:41:22 its... ridiculously high Apr 29 20:43:53 I: but you climbed it all the way to the top Apr 29 20:47:19 Twice now. Apr 29 20:49:56 I: that's really impressive Apr 29 20:51:49 Apparently, yes Apr 29 20:53:17 *Inga smiles* I think it is. It must take a lot of strength Apr 29 20:54:50 Well... I suppose so... I am deceptively strong... but its hard work, mentally, too Apr 29 20:57:13 He is strong enough to carry me around, and that is no mean feat! Apr 29 21:00:15 That Castillian captain got an idea of my being stronger than I look Apr 29 21:01:53 HH: reck'n he's dumb enough to mess with you again? Apr 29 21:03:04 Yes. Undoubtedly. Uisine is the smartest person with Castillian heritage I've ever met Apr 29 21:05:01 She has Castillean heritage? Apr 29 21:05:41 * Morgan nods Apr 29 21:05:47 Her grandfather I think Apr 29 21:09:39 * MollyK looks intrigued Apr 29 21:10:08 I suppose the foreign people who have visited are likely to be from there, it is closest Apr 29 21:10:54 * Morgan nods Apr 29 21:11:07 There and a couple of other places. We're the first from Eisen Apr 29 21:13:09 HH: now they're seen th' sexiness of our homeland, they'll never want any other foreigners Apr 29 21:15:38 * Morgan shrugs Apr 29 21:22:30 *they have dinner, at the table where he'd had her this morning. After that, HH and Inga decide to go for a walk on the beach, and they are not back by the time Molly says she will feed Emil and retire* Apr 29 21:23:32 * Morgan nods, following her up Apr 29 21:24:43 * MollyK is in the boys room a few minutes before coming to undress for bed Apr 29 21:24:52 He was barely interested Apr 29 21:31:49 Been well fed today then... Apr 29 21:35:44 * MollyK nods Apr 29 21:36:13 He must have been *she yawns, preparing for bed Apr 29 21:36:50 * Morgan nods, undressing Apr 29 21:39:51 * MollyK gets in, waiting for him Apr 29 21:40:07 * Morgan climbs into bed Apr 29 21:40:46 * MollyK cuddles up Apr 29 21:40:57 I'm glad you're here tonight Apr 29 21:41:35 * Morgan nods Apr 29 21:41:36 Me too Apr 29 21:45:10 * MollyK kisses him gently Apr 29 21:45:30 It was nice on the kitchen table Apr 29 21:45:38 * Morgan nods Apr 29 21:45:40 Yes it was Apr 29 21:47:27 * MollyK sighs happily Apr 29 21:47:47 I like it when you hold my hair like that Apr 29 21:50:22 Oh? Apr 29 21:50:44 * MollyK nods Apr 29 21:50:58 There's something very primal about it for me Apr 29 21:51:31 * Morgan nods Apr 29 21:53:46 What about for you? Apr 29 21:54:10 * Morgan nods Apr 29 21:54:17 I enjoyed it Apr 29 21:55:38 * MollyK nods Apr 29 21:56:17 The bird did not throw you off overmuch Apr 29 21:56:31 No... It didn't Apr 29 21:58:02 Fortunately! *she yawns again* Apr 29 21:58:23 * Morgan nods Apr 29 21:58:40 I really hope that bird doesn't wander about shouting fuck at people instead of food... Apr 29 21:59:19 * MollyK nods Apr 29 21:59:30 It wouldn't be ideal Apr 29 22:00:03 No, not really Apr 29 22:00:33 * MollyK nods Apr 29 22:00:45 Are you ready to sleep, or...? Apr 29 22:01:12 Sleep, love. I was spent. Apr 29 22:01:40 * MollyK nods Apr 29 22:01:56 Good, I'm glad it was so nice for you Apr 29 22:02:55 * Morgan nods, settling Apr 29 22:04:48 Goodnight, liebling Apr 29 22:04:59 G'night love Apr 29 22:06:20 **he starts to dream. It isn't blue toned or yellow toned, yet he knows he is just dreaming. It's dusk and he is walking along the sand. He's holding a woman's hand, but it is as if he is a child of Varick's age, the woman tall above him. Her hand is a deep brown, and almost seems to sparkle . The evening is warm but not hot. He's a comfortable Apr 29 22:06:23 temperature in just the cream breeches and barefoot where the sand has stored the day's heat. There's a gentle swish and ebb of waves** Apr 29 22:07:33 * Morgan looks round before looking up at the woman Apr 29 22:07:50 * MollyK is now known as Woman Apr 29 22:08:03 * Woman looks down at him, smiling Apr 29 22:08:18 Where are we going? Apr 29 22:08:35 Nowhere, we're just walking Apr 29 22:08:59 * Morgan nods Apr 29 22:09:08 And, uhhh.... Who are you? Apr 29 22:09:53 I have had so many names, but now I am Tina Atu'a Fafine Apr 29 22:10:11 I see... I see... Apr 29 22:10:37 * Woman smiles Apr 29 22:10:50 Do you? Apr 29 22:11:09 A little Apr 29 22:12:23 What is it you see? Apr 29 22:13:34 That I'm dreaming... Apr 29 22:14:44 * Woman stops, crouching down to smile at him. Her face is pretty, but more than that it is filled with a loving, maternal expression Apr 29 22:14:58 Shall I pinch you, and we'll see if you wake up? Apr 29 22:16:08 Doesn't seem the sort of thing you'd do... besides... if I'm not dreaming, I'm here for a reason, and waking me up wouldn't fulfil that purpose... Apr 29 22:17:30 * Woman nods, kneeling in the sand Apr 29 22:17:44 What did you think of my wall? Apr 29 22:18:37 It was a challenge. Apr 29 22:20:31 That is what we do for our children, challenge them to learn and grow Apr 29 22:21:29 But... aren't I a child of Theus, rather than you? Apr 29 22:23:29 * Woman smiles "Oh little one, you are his if your heart is his. I am not trying to steal you away" Apr 29 22:24:01 Then... I don't see. Apr 29 22:25:45 * Woman gently kisses his crown Apr 29 22:26:54 You have a bright mind, it will fill with questions that you will think you want answers for, but once you have them, you cannot unhave them Apr 29 22:27:38 * Morgan nods, looking at the sand Apr 29 22:27:59 Those answers will just sit with the others I have Apr 29 22:29:52 There are many people in the world that believe in more Gods than just Theus. Apr 29 22:30:12 * Morgan nods Apr 29 22:30:58 The vesten have a whole host of them... and of course those who follow the old ways which, I suspect, is closer to those who follow you Apr 29 22:32:01 Their beliefs have held a fascination for you Apr 29 22:33:37 * Morgan nods Apr 29 22:33:45 I... like to understand people Apr 29 22:33:59 * Woman nods Apr 29 22:34:04 Why haven't you let anyone else climb the wall twice? Apr 29 22:35:52 I haven't stopped them from climbing it, but having spent days and even weeks trying to scale it the first time, they are frustrated by the new challenge and do not keep trying after their first try Apr 29 22:36:29 But... my second time reaching the top, that was the first try Apr 29 22:36:38 You climb well Apr 29 22:37:00 Anyone who reached the top climbs well. Apr 29 22:37:09 * Woman smiles Apr 29 22:37:33 You did not try to climb the same wall. They did Apr 29 22:38:00 It was actually different then... Apr 29 22:38:07 * Woman nods Apr 29 22:40:17 Ghrainach changes. It is the oldest thing on the islands, except for me Apr 29 22:42:59 * Morgan nods Apr 29 22:44:01 I'm not sure what it is I'm supposed to be asking you Apr 29 22:44:39 You do not need to ask me anything. I wanted to meet you Apr 29 22:44:47 Why? Apr 29 22:45:47 You have a great determination and a spirit of rebellion Apr 29 22:46:06 * Morgan chuckles, raking his fingers through the sand Apr 29 22:46:12 I can't argue with that Apr 29 22:46:20 * Woman nods Apr 29 22:46:37 I am similar Apr 29 22:46:47 Oh? Apr 29 22:47:25 I am here, far away from all the rest of Theah Apr 29 22:47:46 * Morgan nods Apr 29 22:47:50 Why is that? Apr 29 22:47:57 Its not just rebelliousness Apr 29 22:48:35 You have a strong sense of what is right and wrong, and of how people should treat each other Apr 29 22:49:01 I do... Apr 29 22:49:17 As do I, which is why I am here Apr 29 22:50:29 * Morgan nods, looking out at the waves Apr 29 22:50:42 There's very little here I dislike Apr 29 22:50:51 * Woman nods Apr 29 22:51:05 The heat, I know Apr 29 22:51:20 Taken an interest in me, have you? Apr 29 22:51:28 * Woman nods Apr 29 22:51:41 So... you know what it is we have to do Apr 29 22:53:23 I can see the marks in you of influencing, but I avoid my kin and their... actions Apr 29 22:54:17 We have to go through all of this because of the manoeuvrings of gods? Apr 29 22:54:51 * Woman strokes his cheek "Are you certain you wish an answer, little one?" Apr 29 22:55:10 * Morgan takes a deep breath before nodding Apr 29 22:56:21 I do not know what they are doing, or why, but I know that you have been influenced, I assume by the Nibelungen? Apr 29 22:56:35 * Morgan nods Apr 29 22:57:54 * Woman nods Apr 29 22:58:39 Then yes, it is very likely that the Gods and Goddesses are involved Apr 29 22:59:27 Do... do the Nieblungen know they're just instruments and not the architects of all this? Apr 29 23:00:37 That is tough to know. I have not been in Eisen for more than a millenium and a half Apr 29 23:03:18 All the gods and goddesses... they are real? Apr 29 23:05:09 That is a very good question... we take on many aspects of what the people who follow us believe us to be. Sometimes we have more than one name, and more than one visage Apr 29 23:07:18 So... just as an example... -you- could be the same deity the followers of the old ways worship in Eisen... Apr 29 23:07:29 * Woman smiles Apr 29 23:09:56 Indeed. If you are familiar with the old gods of Eisen, you would know me by the name Fulla, the goddess of plentitude... but when you are very old, and quite minor, you are soon confused with more well-known goddesses, and are not so needed then Apr 29 23:10:50 * Morgan nods slightly Apr 29 23:11:32 This altering... is this part of some game among your kin? Apr 29 23:13:39 * Woman shakes her head "I hope not, but... there are some deep differences of opinion between my kin and I, and I could not be certain that their fickleness would not extend this far. Perhaps you can tell me what is afoot?" Apr 29 23:13:56 * Morgan smiles slightly Apr 29 23:14:03 Are you sure -you- want to know? Apr 29 23:14:32 * Woman laughs delightedly "you are so preciously witty" Apr 29 23:15:18 I'll take that as a compliment. But you have not answered my question. In my experience, we absent ourselves so we don't -have- to know what our kin are doing Apr 29 23:15:46 You are not wrong, but now I am curious Apr 29 23:17:06 The long and short of it... there is a fight coming, my children are to be part of it, but I don't know what... if we win, Eisen, and I assume everywhere else, will be safe. If we lose... everyone dies. Apr 29 23:17:39 * Woman nods seriously Apr 29 23:17:45 I see Apr 29 23:18:27 * Morgan nods Apr 29 23:20:13 There is a sort of... truce... for a time... the -thing- we will face, if the Nieblungen can be believed, is a jormungandr Apr 29 23:20:50 * Woman nods Apr 29 23:21:07 I see Apr 29 23:21:22 I'm glad one of us does Apr 29 23:21:35 * Woman smiles Apr 29 23:22:38 And when is the truce supposedly to end? Apr 29 23:23:14 I'm told... the earliest would be about fifteen years... but they don't know exactly... just as they don't know how many children we will have Apr 29 23:23:55 The children are to fight beside you? Apr 29 23:24:16 I don't know. Apr 29 23:24:24 * Woman nods Apr 29 23:26:20 As with most people, your children will come when it is the right time. But it is troubling to me that there might be children caught up in whatever this is Apr 29 23:27:22 If my children are to help rebuild if we win... I can accept that. But the thought of taking them into a fight... Apr 29 23:27:28 * Morgan looks down at the sand in his hands Apr 29 23:27:49 I've already lost a child... I'll tear this world and all its gods apart before I let another be taken from me Apr 29 23:28:28 * Woman smoothes his hair gently "it is a pain like no other" Apr 29 23:28:48 * Morgan nods Apr 29 23:31:30 Well then, I think perhaps it is going to be time for a visit Apr 29 23:31:56 I would not ask that of you Apr 29 23:33:04 * Woman smiles "You are not asking, but I want to know what sort of antics they are going on with if it involves influencing their people so much" Apr 29 23:34:05 Maybe drop by and let me know? I -hate- being led about by the nose while the opposition set traps and keep trying to kill me Apr 29 23:34:26 * Woman nods Apr 29 23:35:31 It may not be quick, but I will find you when I know more of who is involved in this Apr 29 23:35:49 * Morgan nods Apr 29 23:36:05 How will I know this isn't just some heat induced dream? Apr 29 23:36:33 What would satisfy you of that? Apr 29 23:37:22 * Morgan shrugs Apr 29 23:38:33 How about... this cut on my arm already being a scar? Not healed clean, but not... well, like this... *he frowns briefly* Its... the first scar I've wanted to mark something I've achieved, not one I've had to come to terms with Apr 29 23:39:34 I could do that, but Theus might not like it. He was always quite possessive of his followers Apr 29 23:39:47 * Morgan sighs Apr 29 23:40:07 How about a handful of sand? I certainly didn't go to bed with one Apr 29 23:40:18 * Woman nods Apr 29 23:40:51 Then that is what you shall have Apr 29 23:42:00 * Morgan nods, frowning Apr 29 23:42:22 * Woman strokes his brown tenderly Apr 29 23:42:32 Why do you frown, little one? Apr 29 23:44:01 Its difficult. All of the scars I have because Theus allowed such cruelty... but he'd object to having help with one I want. Its... hypocritical. If he wants to keep us, perhaps he should not be so absent from us. I felt... -abandoned-. Apr 29 23:44:18 * Woman nods Apr 29 23:45:38 I do not agree with the way my kin created so much and tended so little whilst also waiting for sacrifices, tributes, and worship. That is why Capperlucia is as it is. Apr 29 23:46:50 * Morgan nods Apr 29 23:47:00 And yet they expect me... us... to save it for them Apr 29 23:47:23 * Woman nods Apr 29 23:48:09 It makes no sense. Power should never be divested from responsibility, only tyranny lies there Apr 29 23:48:32 * Morgan nods vigorously Apr 29 23:48:39 Exactly. Apr 29 23:50:10 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Apr 29 23:52:18 * Woman has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 29 23:56:25 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined
