Claudia and Uinise have one too Jun 12 13:02:16 * Morgan takes them, handing one to Molly Jun 12 13:02:48 We'll take the ketch to Tawstock in the morning, cap'n Jun 12 13:06:02 * Sorgi nods "yes, m'lord. Good night" Jun 12 13:06:28 * Morgan inclines his head, leading them down off the ship Jun 12 13:07:49 * Sorgi is now known as Claudia Jun 12 13:08:12 * Claudia keeps Uinise nearby as they go over the shingle beach Jun 12 13:08:27 Up the cliff path or through the tunnel? Jun 12 13:08:56 Lets go through the tunnel... less risk in the dark Jun 12 13:10:40 * Claudia nods, heading to the shed where the ketch lives. They all go through the tunnels. Emil suddenly perks up when they get near the machine Jun 12 13:10:49 E: Bah! Bah! Bah! Jun 12 13:10:59 * Claudia is now known as Molly Jun 12 13:11:15 * Molly glances at Morgan, smiling "useful, isn't he?" Jun 12 13:11:51 * Morgan nods Jun 12 13:11:53 very Jun 12 13:14:06 * Molly looks to where it is. It has been fenced off with metal bars and a big lock, but it still glows as before Jun 12 13:14:21 U: what is that? Jun 12 13:15:04 It keeps monsters off the island Jun 12 13:16:10 *Uinise nods as if this is perfectly normal* Jun 12 13:17:04 * Molly smiles, shrugging at Morgan [she definitely has no Eisen in her] Jun 12 13:17:37 [no, definitely not] Jun 12 13:18:25 E: *he tries to reach for it, and cries when they pass* Jun 12 13:19:05 * Morgan makes his lantern brighter Jun 12 13:21:02 *Emil stares at it, grinning* Bah Jun 12 13:21:44 Thats better, hmm? Jun 12 13:22:09 * Molly smiles Jun 12 13:22:17 I think someone is tired Jun 12 13:23:06 * Morgan nods Jun 12 13:23:29 He'll fall asleep in that wrap soon. Hopefully after Florrie has seen him Jun 12 13:25:26 * Molly nods, following the tunnels right up Jun 12 13:25:48 C: Do you want Uinise and I to go to the main house? Do you have a key? Jun 12 13:26:19 * Morgan nods, producing a key from his coat and handing it to her Jun 12 13:26:35 C: we'll get fires going Jun 12 13:27:16 Alright, thanks Jun 12 13:29:19 *Claudia and Uinise make for the house whilst the rest of them go over the big lawn towards the farmhouse with smoke from the chimney and lit windows* Jun 12 13:29:43 * Morgan knocks quietly on the door Jun 12 13:42:17 * Molly is now known as James Jun 12 13:42:31 * James opens the door, looking very pleased to see them Jun 12 13:42:40 Hello! Come in! Jun 12 13:43:05 * Morgan smiles, moving aside to let Molly and Varick in Jun 12 13:45:05 M: Hallo James, how are you? *her accent is definitely Eisen even when she matches him with Avalonian* Jun 12 13:46:19 * James offers to take everyone's coats, assuring her all is well. Then he looks to Morgan "Umm... I was raised in a nunnery but I don't think babies come that quickly" Jun 12 13:47:39 * Morgan nods Jun 12 13:47:47 Long story, James Jun 12 13:47:50 *Molly gets Emil out of the wrap, handing him over to Morgan* Jun 12 13:48:01 V: Can I find Florrie now? Jun 12 13:48:20 * Morgan puts Emil on his hip, looking at James Jun 12 13:48:23 Is she still awake? Jun 12 13:50:38 * James smiles at the baby "she was before I went to close the hen house" Jun 12 13:50:50 *Emil hides shyly against Morgan* Jun 12 13:50:56 * Morgan looks to Varick, nodding Jun 12 13:50:57 Go on then Jun 12 13:52:23 *Varick goes on into the kitchen* Jun 12 13:52:56 * James gets a hug from Molly Jun 12 13:53:30 * Morgan watches them Jun 12 13:54:48 * James looks happy "Elsie will be in the kitchen too" he offers his hand to Morgan Jun 12 13:55:11 * Morgan smiles, putting his arm around James' shoulder Jun 12 13:55:23 Its good to see you Jun 12 13:55:48 And you, my Lord Jun 12 13:56:08 *Molly heads through* Jun 12 13:56:26 A lots happened... how have you been? Jun 12 13:57:15 * James smiles "Happy. Really happy." Jun 12 13:57:33 * Morgan nods Jun 12 13:57:35 I can tell Jun 12 13:57:52 * James nods "you won't believe how big he is now" Jun 12 13:58:43 Your son... Jun 12 13:59:18 * James nods Jun 12 13:59:28 He's four months now Jun 12 13:59:41 * Morgan nods Jun 12 13:59:47 We've been away a while Jun 12 14:00:45 He was about a week or two old when you left Jun 12 14:01:12 *he can hear the excited welcome of the women in the kitchen* Jun 12 14:01:35 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:01:44 Yes, his birth rather sticks in my mind Jun 12 14:01:47 * Morgan smiles slightly Jun 12 14:03:42 * James nods "I thank the Lord every day for them surviving it" Jun 12 14:04:17 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:05:23 * James heads to the kitchen where there is lots of hugging. Alice has her back to Morgan with her hair down, so much like Dietlinde's, and Florrie on her hip Jun 12 14:05:56 * Morgan quietly takes a deep breath Jun 12 14:06:59 I hope you're saving some of those hugs for us... Jun 12 14:07:20 * James is now known as Alice Jun 12 14:08:49 * Alice turns, putting Florrie down so she can come to hug Morgan. She has definitely filled out since settling there, and has the sort of curves now that Dietlinde did, hard to see in the mirror. She hugs him to the side so as not to squish Emil Jun 12 14:09:27 * Morgan squeezes her Jun 12 14:09:42 Sorry its so late... we'd hoped to be here a little sooner Jun 12 14:10:20 It's fine, Dinner is nearly ready. *she looks at the baby* he's very handsome Jun 12 14:10:43 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:10:49 This is Emil... Jun 12 14:11:14 F: Show baby, Ballhead! Jun 12 14:12:36 *Florrie comes over. She moves less like a baby and more like a young child now that she is almost two and eight months * Jun 12 14:12:48 * Morgan turns, shifting Emil and crouching so she can see him Jun 12 14:12:54 Hello sweetheart Jun 12 14:13:42 *she kisses Emil's forehead* dark skin, dark hair. Babies like flowers. Jun 12 14:13:48 * Alice is now known as Florrie Jun 12 14:13:56 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:13:57 *Molly watches them* Jun 12 14:14:03 I reckon they do, yes Jun 12 14:14:27 No! Babies like flowers. Mix flowers. New colours Jun 12 14:15:05 * Florrie is starting to look even more like Edward around the eyes, the colour just like her father and grandfathers Jun 12 14:15:23 Oh, I see, yes... Jun 12 14:15:50 You're starting to look like your daddy and grandad... except prettier Jun 12 14:17:42 * Florrie hugs him, arms round his neck Jun 12 14:17:47 Missed Ballhead Jun 12 14:17:54 * Morgan squeezes her Jun 12 14:18:00 I've missed you too sweetheart Jun 12 14:18:29 *Emil grabs her hair* Jun 12 14:18:33 Ouch! Jun 12 14:19:01 * Morgan gently untangles his hand Jun 12 14:19:07 Gently, Emil... gently... Jun 12 14:21:00 *Emil starts to grizzle* Jun 12 14:21:13 * Morgan bounces him gently Jun 12 14:21:17 * Florrie pats his head "shhhh... shhh..." Jun 12 14:22:13 I reckon he's tired... he'd normally be asleep by now Jun 12 14:22:46 * Florrie looks at the baby "big baby" Jun 12 14:23:21 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:23:30 Think he'll be walking before too much longer Jun 12 14:23:52 *Alice pours tea for everyone. Elsie comes in carrying Thomas. Her hair is even shorter, but it really suits her* Jun 12 14:24:24 * Florrie nods Jun 12 14:24:30 Walk forest Jun 12 14:25:58 You've been walking in the forest? Jun 12 14:27:25 * Florrie nods Jun 12 14:27:38 Trees. Flowers. Grow big Jun 12 14:27:51 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:27:55 You must enjoy that Jun 12 14:28:04 * Florrie nods Jun 12 14:28:52 *Elsie hugs Molly before giving her Thomas to hold so she can pick up Varick and hug him* Jun 12 14:29:37 * Morgan runs his thumb over Florries cheek Jun 12 14:29:44 You looking forward to seeing your daddy in my house? Jun 12 14:32:42 * Florrie nods, smiling a smile that's a little too familiar even after three years "hug daddy" Jun 12 14:33:19 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:33:30 Yes... that'll be lovely Jun 12 14:33:55 Go ship waves Jun 12 14:34:06 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:34:15 She's fast... really -really- fast Jun 12 14:37:14 * Florrie nods. Elsie comes to Morgan Jun 12 14:37:24 How are you, Morgan? Jun 12 14:37:31 * Florrie is now known as Elsie Jun 12 14:37:34 * Morgan stands up, hugging her Jun 12 14:37:43 * Elsie hugs him unreservedly Jun 12 14:37:52 Its good to see you... how are you? Jun 12 14:39:26 * Elsie nods Jun 12 14:39:45 Occassionally tired, but very happy Jun 12 14:40:36 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:40:42 Good Jun 12 14:42:04 * Elsie looks at Emil "you must be tired too?" Jun 12 14:42:35 I've been in commond of the Rose for the last month... I'm -always- tired Jun 12 14:43:41 * Elsie nods, tickling Emil under the chin "whose baby is this?" Jun 12 14:44:19 Ours, now... Jun 12 14:45:42 * Elsie looks surprised Jun 12 14:45:52 Congratulations! What an adventure Jun 12 14:46:25 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:47:07 Sigfrieds wife, we found her... she had amnesia and had had this little man... once her memory came back and we were on our way to Capperlucia, it was decided that the best place for him was with us Jun 12 14:48:02 That's sad, didn't she want to keep him? Jun 12 14:49:14 Yes... but when she regained her memory, she changed... she was a different person, deep down, and... it would've been difficult. It was obvious that we'd bonded with him, and he with us Jun 12 14:50:46 * Elsie nods, smiling Jun 12 14:50:55 He's in good hands with you and Molly Jun 12 14:51:09 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:53:07 *Alice asks for Elsie's help. Florrie has gone to show Varick her doll, so Morgan is left holding Emil and Molly is cradling Thomas, looking at his hands as he snoozes* Jun 12 14:53:11 * Elsie is now known as Molly Jun 12 14:53:25 * Morgan watches her Jun 12 14:53:28 Fingernails, right? Jun 12 14:53:40 * Molly nods "mmhmm" Jun 12 14:54:16 * Morgan nods Jun 12 14:55:57 [this was more difficult than I expected] Jun 12 14:56:12 [what do you need, my love?] Jun 12 14:56:22 [I don't know. I'm alright] Jun 12 14:58:59 * Molly nods, bringing the baby to him. He's definitely smaller than Emil, his little nightdress an Eisen-style one that he recalls Molly making when they all lived together in Tawstock Jun 12 14:59:19 * Morgan looks at him Jun 12 14:59:25 He's a handsome little lad Jun 12 15:01:17 * Molly nods, gazing at him "he looks so peaceful, and he's so light..." Jun 12 15:01:48 * Morgan nods Jun 12 15:01:59 Hard to imagine they grow to be like HeinzHarold Jun 12 15:02:13 * Molly smiles Jun 12 15:02:23 He will be so broody... Jun 12 15:02:57 * Morgan nods Jun 12 15:03:05 Oh yes... this one particularly is special to him Jun 12 15:04:26 * Molly nods "he was the second person to hold him" Jun 12 15:05:04 * Morgan nods Jun 12 15:05:06 I know Jun 12 15:07:13 * Molly nods, sighing gently. "Would you like to swap?" Jun 12 15:07:39 I'm alright with my son Jun 12 15:12:01 * Molly nods, smiling. The dinner is soon ready, and so they gather around the table, the five adults having to juggle four children on their laps. The food is simple, but very good after many days of fish, and lots of tea is drunk. Florrie is the first to look tired, though Thomas has mostly slept anyway Jun 12 15:12:07 * Molly is now known as Florrie Jun 12 15:12:12 Ballhead bed? Jun 12 15:12:36 What's that sweetheart? You want to go to bed? Jun 12 15:12:46 Ballhead do bed Jun 12 15:14:49 * Morgan looks to Alice Jun 12 15:14:51 Is that alright? Jun 12 15:15:08 *she nods* of course Jun 12 15:18:06 * Florrie has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Jun 12 15:26:11 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Jun 12 15:26:38 * Morgan nods Jun 12 15:26:40 * MollyK looks slightly uneasy about it Jun 12 15:27:04 * Morgan holds out his hand to Florrie Jun 12 15:27:12 Come on then, say goodnight to everyone Jun 12 15:28:16 *Florrie does so, holding his hand* Jun 12 15:30:50 * Morgan takes her up to bed Jun 12 15:32:24 *she points to one of the two bedrooms. In it the hammock he made her is beside the main bed* Jun 12 15:32:29 * MollyK is now known as Florrie Jun 12 15:32:53 Which one? Jun 12 15:33:08 Hammock my bed Jun 12 15:33:44 Alright then, lets get you changed for bed Jun 12 15:36:05 * Florrie finds a night gown Jun 12 15:37:10 This Jun 12 15:37:52 * Morgan nods, taking it and holding it ready to get her into it Jun 12 15:38:23 * Florrie tries to get the old one off Jun 12 15:38:36 Do you need some help? Jun 12 15:40:18 * Florrie nods Jun 12 15:40:23 Help Ballhead Jun 12 15:40:47 * Morgan nods, helping her get out of her clothes Jun 12 15:41:54 * Florrie doesn't have any nappy cloth Jun 12 15:42:01 No nappy? Jun 12 15:42:17 Big girl now Jun 12 15:42:40 * Morgan nods Jun 12 15:42:45 Yes, you are Jun 12 15:42:55 * Morgan helps her into the nightgown Jun 12 15:43:24 * Florrie nods Jun 12 15:43:30 Brush hair Jun 12 15:43:48 * Morgan nods, looking round for a brush before doing so Jun 12 15:44:35 *her hair seems to be getting some curl to it* Jun 12 15:44:54 * Morgan sighs Jun 12 15:44:59 Going to have curly hair, huh Jun 12 15:46:39 Hair good? Jun 12 15:47:16 * Morgan nods Jun 12 15:47:18 Its lovely Jun 12 15:48:24 *Jana's hair in each dream he's seen has always been straight* Jun 12 15:48:30 * Florrie yawns Jun 12 15:48:35 See morning? Jun 12 15:49:07 Probably. Got to go see Molly's family tomorrow but then we'll be back Jun 12 15:50:32 * Florrie nods, trying to get into the hammock Jun 12 15:50:50 * Morgan smiles, helping her into it and getting her settled Jun 12 15:51:42 * Florrie gets under her blankets Jun 12 15:51:48 Love you Ballhead Jun 12 15:52:01 * Morgan smiles, stroking her forehead Jun 12 15:52:05 I love you too sweetheart Jun 12 15:53:24 * Florrie closes her eyes Jun 12 15:53:43 * Morgan watches her, leaving the room quietly once she's asleep Jun 12 15:54:10 *downstairs Molly has the boys ready to go* Jun 12 15:54:15 * Florrie is now known as Molly Jun 12 15:55:38 Come on then, lets get these boys to bed Jun 12 15:59:26 *everyone says goodnight, and Varick wants to be carried on Morgan's back, so the walk to the main house takes a while. They can't easily talk because of Varick, and the first hour there is taken up by getting the children to bed. Thankfully Alice has arranged an old crib in Varick's room, so they can be in together. Molly goes downstairs to make Jun 12 15:59:26 coffee whilst Morgan finishes up bedtime, and soon he can faintly here her down in the music room playing the piano Jun 12 16:00:01 * Morgan follows the sound Jun 12 16:03:10 * Molly is sat in the warm music room, playing and looking relaxed. The room smells of wood polish and coffee, a jug and cups on a table. She watches him a moment Jun 12 16:04:42 * Morgan goes to pour himself a cup of coffee Jun 12 16:05:12 * Molly presses the pedal to reduce the volume Jun 12 16:05:17 Are you alright? Jun 12 16:06:14 * Morgan nods, sipping the coffee Jun 12 16:06:17 Yes... I am Jun 12 16:07:41 Are you sure, my love? I couldn't think of a way to mean you didn't have to do her bedtime Jun 12 16:08:14 I can't avoid things like that. It wouldn't be fair to her Jun 12 16:09:31 * Molly nods sadly Jun 12 16:09:38 She's very attached to you Jun 12 16:09:49 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:09:55 She is, yes Jun 12 16:10:56 * Molly nods Jun 12 16:11:05 Do you wish to sit with me? Jun 12 16:12:14 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Jun 12 16:26:50 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Jun 12 16:27:07 * Morgan nods, going to sit beside her Jun 12 16:27:45 * Molly leans her cheek to his arm Jun 12 16:27:51 Alice looks well Jun 12 16:28:03 She looks like Dietlinde from behind... Jun 12 16:30:30 * Morgan sighs Jun 12 16:30:36 It was quite jarring Jun 12 16:30:42 * Molly nods a little Jun 12 16:30:54 It must be very difficult Jun 12 16:31:30 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:31:35 Somewhat, aye Jun 12 16:32:34 * Molly nods again Jun 12 16:33:41 Perhaps you'll get used to it again Jun 12 16:34:09 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:34:25 I'm not going to retreat into solitude Jun 12 16:35:30 * Molly nods "I am glad of it" Jun 12 16:36:01 * Morgan nods, sighing Jun 12 16:38:31 * Molly plays a different piece, something more difficult than before Jun 12 16:38:45 Maybe I can suggest how pretty it looks up Jun 12 16:39:18 * Morgan shakes his head Jun 12 16:39:24 Its fine Jun 12 16:41:35 * Molly shrugs a little Jun 12 16:41:48 Elsie looks very well too Jun 12 16:41:57 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:42:00 Her hair really suits her Jun 12 16:43:58 * Molly nods Jun 12 16:44:19 She asked me when I'd cut mine Jun 12 16:44:38 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:44:41 What did you tell her? Jun 12 16:46:09 That it was something the Sheik who had Emil and his birth mother wanted in exchange for them, so it was cut to trade. Jun 12 16:46:22 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:46:40 She doesn't need to know about all the trouble Jun 12 16:47:48 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:47:51 aye Jun 12 16:49:55 We will not be short of company. Tomorrow evening I am going to talk to Elsie about fixing the remainder of the scarring. It would be nice for her to be able to fully put the past to bed and have a normal life Jun 12 16:50:19 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:50:25 I wonder how she'll feel about that Jun 12 16:51:38 Elated, I would imagine. I doubt she would want the lingering restrictions what she suffered Jun 12 16:51:56 No... but it would be quite life changing... Jun 12 16:52:11 In a good way, though? Jun 12 16:52:20 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:52:39 I just... I recall the reaction Wonks had to the saddle and this would be just as profound Jun 12 16:52:55 * Molly nods Jun 12 16:53:03 It would, yes Jun 12 16:54:31 * Morgan nods Jun 12 16:54:37 His reaction was quite... visceral Jun 12 16:55:43 * Molly nods Jun 12 16:55:55 Edward says he rides every day without fail Jun 12 16:56:32 * Morgan smiles Jun 12 16:56:35 I'm glad Jun 12 16:58:48 * Molly nods Jun 12 16:59:08 DeeDee too. They ride the Palominos Jun 12 16:59:58 * Morgan nods Jun 12 17:00:04 I set them to keep them exercised Jun 12 17:00:39 * Molly nods Jun 12 17:01:03 Will you be going to fetch Xantha and Aurora yourself? Jun 12 17:01:29 maybe. I haven't planned that far ahead Jun 12 17:03:21 If seeing Alice and Florrie is tough for you, someone needs to go to prepare Sascha and Otto. Jun 12 17:03:32 * Morgan nods Jun 12 17:03:42 -that- I had already planned Jun 12 17:05:32 * Molly nods Jun 12 17:06:14 Have you invited them to the boys' baptism? Jun 12 17:06:44 I haven't done anything for it... I assumed mother would Jun 12 17:08:29 She was sending invitations, but I had not told her whether to invite them or not. Jun 12 17:09:05 * Morgan nods Jun 12 17:09:12 Right... best leave a note for her then Jun 12 17:09:32 Do you want them to attend? Jun 12 17:10:53 * Morgan nods Jun 12 17:11:12 I do... I think it'll send a message about the sort of Graf I am going to be, too Jun 12 17:11:26 Does it? Jun 12 17:12:04 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Jun 12 17:15:17 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Jun 12 22:16:05 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Jun 12 22:16:56 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Jun 12 22:17:16 Have you invited them to the boys' baptism? Jun 12 22:17:17 I haven't done anything for it... I assumed mother would Jun 12 22:17:17 She was sending invitations, but I had not told her whether to invite them or not. Jun 12 22:17:17 * Morgan nods Jun 12 22:17:17 Right... best leave a note for her then Jun 12 22:17:19 Do you want them to attend? Jun 12 22:17:23 * Morgan nods Jun 12 22:17:25 I do... I think it'll send a message about the sort of Graf I am going to be, too Jun 12 22:17:27 Does it? Jun 12 22:17:37 I know we have prior connection but... inviting commoners to the baptism... Jun 12 22:18:18 I see... yes... Jun 12 22:20:02 * MollyK takes a deep breath Jun 12 22:20:23 Right... I think you'll need to go to Sudlachenburg almost right away Jun 12 22:21:04 * Morgan sighs Jun 12 22:21:13 Give them time to get used to the idea? Jun 12 22:21:35 * MollyK nods Jun 12 22:21:46 Indeed Jun 12 22:22:55 * Morgan nods Jun 12 22:24:20 Are you going to check the perimeter and so on, my love Jun 12 22:25:29 * Morgan looks thoughtful Jun 12 22:25:35 I suppose so Jun 12 22:27:27 * MollyK glances at him Jun 12 22:27:38 Your mind is elsewhere... Jun 12 22:28:14 I was considering not walking round but... I suspect I'd struggle to settle Jun 12 22:28:28 * MollyK nods, standing up Jun 12 22:28:38 I will see you in bed, my love Jun 12 22:28:44 Is something wrong? Jun 12 22:28:55 No, I am just tired Jun 12 22:29:45 * Morgan watches her for a moment before nodding Jun 12 22:29:46 Alright Jun 12 22:30:47 * MollyK smiles slightly before kissing him full on the mouth enthusiastically before pulling away Jun 12 22:30:58 Everything is well Jun 12 22:31:09 * Morgan nods Jun 12 22:31:13 Ok. I'll be back soon Jun 12 22:33:44 * MollyK nods, going out of the music room. He does a full walk of the out first. He has the job of putting out the fires, and checking everything is secure. He can hear Claudia and Uinise quietly talking in a room upstairs when he gets up there, and the sleeping breathing of the boys when he checks their room. The fire in his room has been banked, Jun 12 22:33:44 only the soft orange glow illuminating her fast asleep already Jun 12 22:34:57 * Morgan quietly gets undressed, climbing gently into the bed Jun 12 22:35:20 * MollyK doesn't wake, but makes a little happy sigh even in her sleep Jun 12 22:36:19 * Morgan curls up behind her, trying to settle to sleep Jun 12 22:37:48 **he starts to dream. They've lived in Hafenlohr for five years, and he's been Graf Gottkirchen for a few of them. These duties take him from home more often than he wants, both him and Heinzharold, now with two children. He and Molly have five now, who should all be in bed when he gets back from a two week trip. He cleans up in the little water Jun 12 22:37:48 closet in the main hall, hoping to find her at dinner. Jun 12 22:39:05 * Morgan wanders down to the dining room Jun 12 22:40:38 *that is where he finds her, dinner on the table, four smart male servants stood at attention. She looks beautiful, wearing a mid-blue satin dress he's always liked, off the shoulder so there's lots of her skin. She sits in his seat at the head the table, and watches him with a smile as she ideally strokes her neck* Jun 12 22:40:50 Well, lookie what we have here... Jun 12 22:41:36 The conquering hero returns home... Jun 12 22:42:01 Indeed he does... *she comes to him, wrapping her arms around his neck. She whispers in his ear "I have something to tell you…". But he doesn't need to be told, because this close he can smell it on her skin clear as day, even more effective after his fortnight of abstinence. She's pregnant again.* Jun 12 22:42:37 Again? Jun 12 22:43:56 * MollyK nods, whispering by his idea "oh yes... I think it was in that lavender flower bed... or maybe in the boat on the lake" Jun 12 22:44:34 * Morgan nods, kissing her cheek Jun 12 22:44:37 Thats wonderful Jun 12 22:44:59 * MollyK gently kisses his neck Jun 12 22:45:13 I've been wanting to tell you for so long Jun 12 22:47:01 How far? Jun 12 22:48:35 I missed my course three days after you left so... at most six weeks... early still Jun 12 22:48:53 * Morgan nods Jun 12 22:49:21 Thats wonderful Jun 12 22:49:55 * MollyK nods, nipping his neck Jun 12 22:50:02 Can you tell? Jun 12 22:50:32 * Morgan nods Jun 12 22:50:35 Yes, I can Jun 12 22:51:05 * MollyK nods, sucking gently on his neck "mmhmm" Jun 12 22:52:05 Blossom, we are not alone Jun 12 22:52:44 Liebes herz... I've waited for a fortnight, anticipating this. I don't mind! Jun 12 22:53:20 I do, and I suspect so do they Jun 12 22:53:54 Then you'll need to find a solution, rapidly, because I want you very much Jun 12 22:56:20 * Morgan looks at the men Jun 12 22:56:21 You can go Jun 12 22:56:34 * MollyK runs a hand down his back and grips his bottom Jun 12 22:57:07 *The men all bow a little before filing out slowly* Jun 12 22:57:22 * Morgan moves, locking the door behind them Jun 12 22:57:41 * MollyK smiles, watching him Jun 12 22:57:50 So, my love... are you hungry? Jun 12 22:58:04 After a fashion... Jun 12 23:00:26 * MollyK nods, sitting on the edge of the table, which pushes plates and knock an empty glass on its side Jun 12 23:01:19 Good... I made sure everything was kept warm and ready to eat Jun 12 23:01:28 Oh really... Jun 12 23:01:42 * MollyK smiles "mmhmm" Jun 12 23:02:52 * Morgan moves to stand in front of her Jun 12 23:02:56 Good, because I'm famished Jun 12 23:04:55 I am very, -very- glad to hear that, my dear Duke Jun 12 23:05:45 * Morgan smiles, leaning forward, kissing her hard Jun 12 23:07:06 * MollyK moans loudly against his mouth. If those servants are near the door, they've probably heard Jun 12 23:09:37 I've missed you Jun 12 23:10:00 Oh god I've missed you too Jun 12 23:11:17 * Morgan smiles Jun 12 23:11:17 * Morgan smiles Jun 12 23:11:19 I need you Jun 12 23:11:28 * MollyK nods, grinning Jun 12 23:11:34 I was counting on it! Jun 12 23:12:53 * Morgan smiles, running his hands up her legs Jun 12 23:13:39 * MollyK grabs a handful of his shirt, and pulls him back to kiss him roughly Jun 12 23:14:55 * Morgan runs his hands across her thighs, pushing them apart Jun 12 23:16:31 * MollyK slips her hand between them before bringing her wet fingers up and gently inserting them between their joined lips Jun 12 23:16:47 * Morgan moans, sucking at her fingers Jun 12 23:18:01 *he can even taste a little difference between when she's increasing and not. He can feel her lick from the other side, then her tongue darts between them and meets his* Jun 12 23:19:16 * Morgan moans again, fidgeting to get his placket undone Jun 12 23:20:18 * MollyK removes her fingers, helping him with his buttons. She murmurs "fuck I want you..." Jun 12 23:21:54 * Morgan grins, getting the fabric out of the way Jun 12 23:23:26 * MollyK grips him "I missed your hardness... the device from Capperlucia does not fill me half so well..." Jun 12 23:23:38 No? Jun 12 23:24:11 * MollyK strokes him Jun 12 23:24:22 It's not thick and hot like your cock... Jun 12 23:24:40 * Morgan nods Jun 12 23:24:46 Lets remedy that issue then Jun 12 23:26:05 * MollyK nods, guiding him towards her before again wetting her fingers and then removing them Jun 12 23:27:48 * Morgan starts to push into her Jun 12 23:28:41 * MollyK 's eyes roll back and she groans "oh yes!" Jun 12 23:29:49 * Morgan groans as he slowly pushes deeper until he is as deep as he can go Jun 12 23:32:05 * MollyK wraps her legs around him, watching his eyes, and brings her fingers to his mouth. She quietly says "here... I know you can taste it..." Jun 12 23:32:56 * Morgan nods, taking her fingers in his mouth and sucking Jun 12 23:33:46 * MollyK watches it with widening pupils, and whimpers "yes. I like that" Jun 12 23:34:07 Oh? Jun 12 23:34:30 I like that it arouses you Jun 12 23:35:44 * Morgan nods Jun 12 23:35:46 Very much Jun 12 23:37:01 Me too... all I've been able to think of is about how often you'll want to fuck me again Jun 12 23:37:24 One track mind, you've got Jun 12 23:38:15 * MollyK nods, thrusting her hips against him "it has taken you six years and two pregnancies to work that out?" Jun 12 23:38:59 * Morgan withdraws a little, thrusting back in Jun 12 23:39:06 Been a little preoccupied with actually doing it Jun 12 23:39:36 * MollyK moans loudly Jun 12 23:40:04 Have you been... preoccupied while... you've been... away? Jun 12 23:40:51 * Morgan nods Jun 12 23:40:56 Yes Jun 12 23:41:46 But you didn't...? Jun 12 23:41:57 * Morgan shakes his head Jun 12 23:41:59 no Jun 12 23:42:29 Only in my imagination then *she uses her heels on his ass to pull him into her* Jun 12 23:43:44 * Morgan nods, burying himself once more Jun 12 23:44:17 Yes! Just fuck me, we can talk later! Jun 12 23:44:33 *this causes a little chuckling outside* Jun 12 23:45:43 * Morgan frowns, glancing over his shoulder Jun 12 23:47:17 *the door is locked still Jun 12 23:47:30 * Morgan speaks quietly Jun 12 23:47:34 They're listening... Jun 12 23:47:46 Oh well, maybe they'll learn something! Jun 12 23:48:06 * Morgan sighs slightly, starting to thrust Jun 12 23:48:42 * MollyK smiles Jun 12 23:48:56 My love, do you need to go upstairs... or outside? Jun 12 23:49:14 No, I need you... now Jun 12 23:49:22 * MollyK nods Jun 12 23:49:27 Have me then Jun 12 23:49:38 * Morgan nods, fucking her a bit harder Jun 12 23:50:39 * MollyK is indeed loud enough to be heard, but the staff stay quiet until someone drops a tray with a metallic "boing" sound Jun 12 23:52:20 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)
