**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jul 17 10:33:19 2023 Jul 17 10:33:19 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Jul 17 10:35:00 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Jul 17 10:37:29 This is more suitable for you Jul 17 10:39:21 * MollyK sits on the bed Jul 17 10:39:27 Why? Jul 17 10:40:32 My cabin would be too cramped, and you have a proper bed... and a chair and table... Jul 17 10:41:12 * MollyK 's lips quirk with amusement "for all my girly fripperies, hmm?" Jul 17 10:41:40 * Morgan nods, deadpan Jul 17 10:41:41 Obviously Jul 17 10:41:57 * MollyK giggles, watching him Jul 17 10:42:36 Will you sit somewhere? Jul 17 10:43:29 * Morgan nods, sitting in the chair Jul 17 10:47:20 * MollyK kicks her shoes off and flops on the bed, getting comfortable, her hair all fanned out. She lies on her side, watching him Jul 17 10:50:50 It'll take us about a week to get to the big port, won't it? Jul 17 10:51:06 * Morgan nods Jul 17 10:51:11 If the crews any good, yes Jul 17 10:52:20 * MollyK nods Jul 17 10:52:36 How long then til Sudlackingberg? Jul 17 10:52:49 Sudlachenburg Jul 17 10:53:09 * MollyK nods "yes, there." Jul 17 10:53:21 Its important... it sits on the shore of the Sudlache... Jul 17 10:53:33 That does make sense Jul 17 10:54:19 *it's a week over land, or about 4 using the ferry and then over land* Jul 17 10:54:54 * Morgan nods Jul 17 10:55:05 Depending which way we go, four days to a week Jul 17 10:57:06 Which way do you prefer? How soon do you wish to be freed of babysitting me? Jul 17 10:59:28 Generally speaking I'm not one for dithering... it does not do to avoid that which makes us uncomfortable Jul 17 11:00:28 * MollyK smiles, watching him Jul 17 11:00:39 And me? Do I make you uncomfortable? Jul 17 11:02:00 * Morgan watches her for a moment Jul 17 11:02:04 What was the fight about? Jul 17 11:04:16 * MollyK smiles "Oh, that was an even more blatant deflection than usual! One man made promises of marriage to the other's sister, took her to bed and made love to her, now won't marry her" Jul 17 11:05:32 You should not have intervened Jul 17 11:07:25 * MollyK sticks her tongue out at him again "yes Sir" Jul 17 11:13:00 You put yourself in danger, for a man who probably deserved to be skewered Jul 17 11:16:56 They shouldn't have been arguing Jul 17 11:20:24 * Morgan shrugs Jul 17 11:20:28 That's down to them to deal with Jul 17 11:20:43 Does it matter now? Jul 17 11:22:10 I suppose not. Jul 17 11:22:26 * Morgan takes a flask from his coat, offering it to her Jul 17 11:22:52 * MollyK nods, sitting up Jul 17 11:22:59 What is it? Jul 17 11:23:44 Its called Blokners... this one is brewed in Sudlachenburg Jul 17 11:24:29 * MollyK takes it, drinking some. Her nose wrinkles after she's swallowed Jul 17 11:24:37 Well, that's... different Jul 17 11:24:57 * Morgan nods Jul 17 11:26:00 * MollyK smiles Jul 17 11:26:31 We can send for something else, we won't get very tipsy on one flask... Jul 17 11:26:56 * Morgan sighs Jul 17 11:27:28 Feel free but... you should be aware that the amount it'd take to get me even tipsy would be expensive Jul 17 11:31:02 * MollyK shrugs Jul 17 11:31:16 That is my uncle's problem Jul 17 11:32:18 It won't be such a good deal for him if he's bankrupted by the journey Jul 17 11:33:59 * MollyK nods, smiling "then they will really struggle to palm me off!" Jul 17 11:34:49 There is that Jul 17 11:37:00 I see no problem then. Is there something else you'd prefer to do than sit down here with me and get tipsy? Jul 17 11:37:46 Not especially. I don't think the captain would appreciate me hanging from the rigging... Jul 17 11:39:24 * MollyK nods, getting up and going to the door, still just stocking-footed Jul 17 11:39:32 I'll be back then Jul 17 11:39:47 * Morgan gets up Jul 17 11:39:50 I'll come with you Jul 17 11:42:26 I won't run away, I promise *she smiles* Jul 17 11:42:58 * Morgan sighs Jul 17 11:42:58 Alright Jul 17 11:45:13 You thought I might? Jul 17 11:45:34 No, but... I wasn't comfortable with the way they were looking at you Jul 17 11:45:42 Why? Jul 17 11:46:41 It looked... predatory... Jul 17 11:49:55 You feel protective...? *she watches him closely* Jul 17 11:50:11 * Morgan sighs, nodding Jul 17 12:18:08 But not possessive. Jul 17 12:18:53 It is not my place to be possessive Jul 17 12:19:55 I'm being sold to your family, so... Jul 17 12:20:21 Thats not the same Jul 17 12:20:35 Why not? Jul 17 12:21:39 I do not and will not own you... that is slavery, and not happening Jul 17 12:22:19 * MollyK nods slowly "no... that's not how it should be" Jul 17 12:22:41 indeed Jul 17 12:23:29 * MollyK nods, watching him "I'll... I'll get the drink" Jul 17 12:24:41 * Morgan nods Jul 17 12:24:44 alright Jul 17 12:26:36 * MollyK goes, but even out of the room that attraction that pulls at him doesn't go, and the smell of her perfume, and the sight of her bed doesn't help, nor the memory of his impulsive kiss Jul 17 12:29:11 * Morgan frowns, berating himself as he waits Jul 17 12:30:35 *when she comes back in, bottle in hand, it hits him like a tidal wave. She smiles, shutting the door Jul 17 12:30:46 I have it Jul 17 12:31:03 * Morgan nods, watching her Jul 17 12:34:27 I had to knee a man in the groin Jul 17 12:35:05 He tried his luck? Jul 17 12:37:18 He was stood in my way and flirting, when he wouldn't move I kneed him Jul 17 12:37:28 * Morgan nods Jul 17 12:37:40 I'll explain to the captain if it happens again he'll find himself losing crew Jul 17 12:41:16 * MollyK smiles "mmm alright, that's really very attractive. I don't have any glasses" Jul 17 12:42:16 * Morgan blinks a couple of times Jul 17 12:42:22 Alright Jul 17 12:44:25 It's a problem for you to share the bottle? Jul 17 12:45:15 * Morgan shakes his head Jul 17 12:45:21 No, I suppose not Jul 17 12:48:10 * MollyK nods, sitting cross-legged on the bed, opening the bottle Jul 17 12:48:18 Are you joining me? Jul 17 12:49:25 I don't think it'd be appropriate... I'll sit here Jul 17 12:51:09 * MollyK shrugs Jul 17 12:51:27 Suit yourself, but you'll have to fetch the bottle each time! Jul 17 12:51:43 I'll manage Jul 17 12:54:19 * MollyK takes a big mouthful, holding it before swallowing and inhaling deeply through her mouth Jul 17 12:54:26 Ohhh that's goood. Jul 17 12:54:44 What sort is it? Jul 17 12:56:18 * MollyK checks the label "Kilgarret Innismore whiskey, aged four years" Jul 17 12:56:30 Oh... yes, that will be good Jul 17 12:56:43 * MollyK smiles, offering it over Jul 17 12:57:31 * Morgan takes it, drinking a large mouthful, closing his eyes Jul 17 12:59:21 *it is amazing* Jul 17 12:59:56 That is... wonderful Jul 17 13:02:13 * MollyK nods Jul 17 13:02:52 They got a good price on it in Stirling apparently, it's not so popular as the Marches Whiskey Jul 17 13:03:20 I suppose if its what is local, it becomes the norm Jul 17 13:06:06 * MollyK nods Jul 17 13:06:22 I'm glad you like it Jul 17 13:07:09 * Morgan nods, savouring another mouthful before handing the bottle back Jul 17 13:09:11 * MollyK drinks some more. The ship starts to move out Jul 17 13:09:54 Do you think we'll ever come back to Avalon, or is this a proper farewell? Jul 17 13:10:08 * Morgan shrugs Jul 17 13:10:30 I never imagined I'd leave... I just don't know what will happen anymore Jul 17 13:14:12 * MollyK nods, bringing him the bottle and laying a gentle hand on his shoulder "I'm sorry I brought all this trouble to you" Jul 17 13:14:44 * Morgan nods, taking another mouthful Jul 17 13:16:18 * MollyK sighs Jul 17 13:17:03 I swear I'm like a bad penny, I always seem to bring trouble to people Jul 17 13:17:23 How so? Jul 17 13:18:44 When I was little, my sister drowned because of me Jul 17 13:19:36 Oh? Jul 17 13:19:45 I'm sorry to hear that Jul 17 13:22:08 * MollyK nods Jul 17 13:22:36 It was a while ago... I was little, but... yes, I'm a problem, really Jul 17 13:22:53 Its natural for us to blame ourselves for things like that Jul 17 13:24:27 * MollyK nods Jul 17 13:25:14 It wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for me being how I am. Jul 17 13:25:39 You know that for certain? Or just believe so? Jul 17 13:28:10 I was fighting with her about my doll. It ended up in the water. We both tried to get it, and I didn't call for help when she was struggling, I was convinced I could save her myself Jul 17 13:31:23 You were young? Jul 17 13:32:27 * MollyK nods, removing her hand and holding it for the bottle Jul 17 13:32:34 I was four, she was six Jul 17 13:32:43 * Morgan takes another mouthful before handing it over Jul 17 13:32:54 You cannot hold yourself responsible as a four year old Jul 17 13:33:08 Yes, I can and I do. Jul 17 13:33:20 You shouldn't Jul 17 13:33:28 * MollyK shrugs Jul 17 13:33:33 It is what it is Jul 17 13:34:30 * Morgan sighs, nodding Jul 17 13:35:54 * MollyK takes a big mouthful of the whiskey Jul 17 13:37:20 I'm sorry, this is morbid, and not what you'd expect of me Jul 17 13:38:05 * Morgan shrugs Jul 17 13:38:12 I don't expect anything from you Jul 17 13:40:10 * MollyK nods, drinking again Jul 17 13:40:29 Not that I do not get involved in bar fights again? Jul 17 13:41:07 I would ask that of you, but I do not -expect- it of you Jul 17 13:42:08 And my friendship? *she watches down at him from her standing position* Jul 17 13:43:18 I would like that Jul 17 13:47:12 * MollyK smiles "yes. Even if I have to become your sister-in-law, let's be friends..." Jul 17 13:47:36 That won't happen. You are betrothed to the Veisgraf. That is not him. Jul 17 13:48:30 And you will undo that. Then they will no doubt consider him as he is Jul 17 13:49:03 I told you I would save you from him. Jul 17 13:49:20 But at what cost? Jul 17 13:49:44 I don't know yet Jul 17 13:50:39 * MollyK nods, watching him a long moment Jul 17 13:53:03 What? Jul 17 13:55:01 * MollyK chews her lower lip a moment Jul 17 13:55:12 I should sit back down... Jul 17 13:55:32 Alright... Jul 17 13:56:30 I am concerned that some point, I am going to end up kissing you in a way we cannot brush off as just the stress of the day Jul 17 13:56:50 * Morgan nods Jul 17 13:56:54 I see Jul 17 13:59:11 * MollyK nods Jul 17 13:59:21 That would not be being a good friend... Jul 17 13:59:57 I suppose not... Jul 17 14:00:31 * MollyK nods, watching him still "I wouldn't want to displease you" Jul 17 14:00:40 No? Jul 17 14:01:06 No... I want you to think I am a nice person, a -kind- person Jul 17 14:01:23 * Morgan nods Jul 17 14:01:29 You seem to be Jul 17 14:01:38 * MollyK nods Jul 17 14:01:59 I'm glad you think so. I know I'm a little too... Jul 17 14:03:11 Forthright, outspoken? Jul 17 14:04:50 * MollyK nods Jul 17 14:05:01 Spirited... headstrong... Jul 17 14:05:16 I'm waiting to hear which of those is a bad thing Jul 17 14:05:39 Most would say all. I do not take instructions well, I am too rebellious Jul 17 14:06:35 The same was said about me Jul 17 14:07:21 You do not seem too rebellious. You did not want to share the bed with me because it wasn't proper Jul 17 14:08:36 I married a common woman. Can't get much more rebellious than that Jul 17 14:10:17 * MollyK nods a little "do you regret it?" Jul 17 14:10:51 I regret the pain she and my daughter will have suffered... I regret that I caused their deaths. Jul 17 14:11:32 This I understand. Yet did you not tell me that we can feel responsible unfairly Jul 17 14:11:48 You were four. I was not. Jul 17 14:12:41 That doesn't mean it was your fault Jul 17 14:13:03 Nevertheless Jul 17 14:13:40 A deal then. I will try to be kinder to myself about it if you will do likewise Jul 17 14:14:06 Pherpas Jul 17 14:14:17 perhaps* Jul 17 14:15:51 * MollyK nods. She gently kisses his cheek, it's very chaste, but it still increases his attraction nonetheless "I will take that as a yes" Jul 17 14:16:24 As you wish Jul 17 14:17:16 * MollyK nods, inhaling deeply a moment before pulling back and drinking more Jul 17 14:17:26 I do Jul 17 14:19:22 * Morgan nods Jul 17 14:19:47 * MollyK hands him the bottle Jul 17 14:20:32 * Morgan takes it, drinking some Jul 17 14:20:48 I'm going to lie down now Jul 17 14:21:47 * Morgan nods Jul 17 14:21:54 I'll leave you be then Jul 17 14:22:19 I don't mind, do what you wish Jul 17 14:22:33 Its best I go. I'll see you later Jul 17 14:22:52 * MollyK frowns a little Jul 17 14:22:55 Alright Jul 17 14:23:24 You wish to rest, I will let you Jul 17 14:23:45 You seem cross with me... *she watches him* Jul 17 14:24:44 Why do you think that? I'm just being considerate, which is not something I'm particularly known for Jul 17 14:26:27 I don't know. Perhaps you are angry that you kissed me earlier Jul 17 14:27:05 Not with you Jul 17 14:28:44 With yourself? Jul 17 14:29:49 * Morgan nods Jul 17 14:29:55 yes Jul 17 14:30:00 Why? Jul 17 14:30:38 * Morgan shakes his head, obviously uncomfortable Jul 17 14:31:07 Please, we're friends. It was awful? Jul 17 14:31:46 No, it wasn't. Not at all. Jul 17 14:35:06 * MollyK looks relieved Jul 17 14:35:37 Good, because I haven't kissed many people, and I was a bit too surprised to give a good accounting of myself! Jul 17 14:36:01 * Morgan nods Jul 17 14:36:12 Yes, sorry... Jul 17 14:37:50 * MollyK shakes her head, smiling Jul 17 14:38:27 I'm not, but you really do need to give a girl fair warning if you want her to kiss you well! Jul 17 14:39:29 If I'd realised it myself, I might have Jul 17 14:40:09 * MollyK giggles "took you by surprise, hmm?" Jul 17 14:40:33 A little, yes Jul 17 14:41:18 * MollyK smiles "why did you?" Jul 17 14:41:57 Because... I suddenly wanted to Jul 17 14:43:05 * MollyK smiles shyly Jul 17 14:43:17 I'm glad, truly Jul 17 14:44:29 * Morgan nods, standing up Jul 17 14:44:43 I'm going to get some air while you rest. Jul 17 14:46:47 * MollyK looks up at him before drawing a deep breath "yes, alright... I'll see you later then" Jul 17 14:47:59 * Morgan nods, moving to the door Jul 17 14:49:48 * MollyK stands still hands at her sides, wriggling her toes "umm thanks for taking care of me..." Jul 17 14:50:36 * Morgan nods Jul 17 14:50:39 I'm glad you're ok Jul 17 14:52:24 * MollyK nods "thanks" Jul 17 14:52:40 * Morgan nods slightly, going through the door Jul 17 14:53:44 * MollyK doesn't interrupt, but he does hear her flop on the bed with a quiet but dramatic groan Jul 17 14:53:59 * Morgan sighs, moving up on deck Jul 17 14:54:56 *it's active up here as they navigate the estuary. The familiarity of an Eisen ship at work should be enough to fully distract him, but it doesn't* Jul 17 14:56:13 * Morgan moves to the rail, watching the water passing Jul 17 14:58:46 *it's soothing, but he finds his thoughts wandering to the swish of her hair, how she'd touched her lip after he'd kissed her, the whiskey she'd now taste of...* Jul 17 14:59:29 * Morgan frowns, berating himself once more Jul 17 15:02:06 *he doesn't seem to be making any headway. It's more than an hour before they are out into the bay and past the island that is out there, minute by minute the little hidden life he'd made for himself retreating into his past, and Sudlachenburg looming into his future. Even this doesn't stop the relentlessness of the attraction* Jul 17 15:03:22 * Morgan goes below, intent on trying to sleep Jul 17 15:05:49 *the whiskey in his system helps this, and the swaying of his hammock, but his thoughts on the verge of sleep stray to how it would be to kiss her with fair warning, and how soft she'd be in his arms* Jul 17 15:08:54 * MollyK has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Jul 17 15:23:37 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Jul 17 15:25:08 * Morgan grumbles, kicking at the wall to get the hammock swaying again Jul 17 15:26:24 *he manages to topple himself out of it, waking in reality with a jolt. She instinctively holds him tighter even as it just wakes her* hey, it s'allllright... Jul 17 15:26:45 * Morgan grumbles Jul 17 15:27:41 * MollyK gently strokes his chest from where she's laid behind him, her body warm against his back "I'm here..." Jul 17 15:28:02 * Morgan sighs heavily, trying to gauge the time Jul 17 15:28:53 *it's about two hours before dawn* Jul 17 15:28:58 What's wrong? Jul 17 15:29:06 Just dreams Jul 17 15:29:29 Do you need some magic? Jul 17 15:29:44 No, I'm ok. I think I'll get up Jul 17 15:30:00 Alright, my love Jul 17 15:30:21 * MollyK squeezes him a moment before kissing his shoulder and letting go Jul 17 15:31:57 * Morgan climbs out of bed, getting dressed and heading to the galley Jul 17 15:33:17 *he finds HH in here, already making coffee* Jul 17 15:33:23 * MollyK is now known as HH Jul 17 15:34:07 hey Jul 17 15:34:48 Hey, y' want some? Jul 17 15:34:53 * Morgan nods Jul 17 15:34:54 Please Jul 17 15:35:26 * HH pours some Jul 17 15:35:39 Yer up early Jul 17 15:35:54 So are you Jul 17 15:40:04 Yeah... Jul 17 15:40:27 What's up man? Jul 17 15:41:04 Turns out if m' wife decides she wants t' be intimate in the night, I can't get back t' sleep after Jul 17 15:41:25 Unfortunate Jul 17 15:41:42 Be careful what you wish for, eh? *he chuckles* Jul 17 15:42:43 * Morgan nods Jul 17 15:42:44 Yeah Jul 17 15:44:00 * HH nods Jul 17 15:44:24 How 'bout you? Been pressed into husbandly duties too? Jul 17 15:44:43 * Morgan shakes his head Jul 17 15:44:45 dreams Jul 17 15:45:47 * HH hands him the coffee, lounging against the counter Jul 17 15:45:58 What was it? Jul 17 15:48:59 I was tutoring Molly on how to bridge the gap from her upbringing to going to court in Eisen... got wind that her uncle had, for political gain, promised her to Edward, or rather, the Veisgraf. Jul 17 15:50:59 * HH nods Jul 17 15:51:07 Yep, heard it that far Jul 17 15:53:11 Next morning, getting ready to sail, she goes to get some whiskey from a tavern... doesn't come back, so we all go looking for her. As I get to the tavern, she's in between two men fighting, one goes to bottle the other and she jumps in the way Jul 17 15:54:04 Fucks sake. Right? Jul 17 15:55:00 stabbed... bleeding to death... we get a medic but... I've seen wounds like that man. No way she's surviving. Jul 17 15:56:22 * HH nods grimly "shit" Jul 17 15:57:15 except... somehow, she does... not a mark on her suddenly... and she's all fucking sparkly, in a tavern in Avalon.... Jul 17 15:58:28 Uh oh! That's not good Jul 17 15:59:08 Quite, so I rushed her to the ship. We got moving but that bloody draw... I can't think straight... Jul 17 15:59:42 * HH nods Jul 17 15:59:54 Like scramblin' eggs, ain't it Jul 17 16:00:15 * Morgan nods Jul 17 16:00:17 yeah Jul 17 16:00:38 Angry enough with myself for what feels like a betrayal of Dietlinde, now -that- Jul 17 16:00:45 So whatcha do about it? Jul 17 16:01:24 Kissed her, left her in her room to rest then spent the rest of the morning berating myself Jul 17 16:05:17 Yer gonna have a rough twenty four hours unless yer done with th' thread? Jul 17 16:06:23 It isn't done. Jul 17 16:07:35 Damn. Need a hug? Jul 17 16:08:10 * Morgan sighs, shrugging Jul 17 16:08:12 I'm ok man Jul 17 16:08:43 I wouldn' be if I'd seen my lil darlin stabbed Jul 17 16:12:41 Yeah but... it wasn't like we were together... I cared for her, but not... y'know Jul 17 16:14:11 * HH nods Jul 17 16:14:18 Y' didn' love her Jul 17 16:15:25 no Jul 17 16:15:36 But then the draw on top of it... Jul 17 16:16:50 * HH nods Jul 17 16:17:03 Y' did well just to kiss 'er and leave, man Jul 17 16:17:17 * Morgan nods Jul 17 16:18:01 I was just drifting off for a nap to get away from it when the thought of her hit me again, then I managed to fall out the hammock, and woke up... Jul 17 16:18:56 Landed right on yer breedin' organs?
