Aug 09 00:03:27 * HH looks to Morgan "she confessin' somethin'?" Aug 09 00:03:37 Sounds a bit like it Aug 09 00:04:11 C: *she shrugs* it was once, early in my service. Aug 09 00:04:47 * HH looks at Morgan "I've done four, but not six" Aug 09 00:04:59 I've done four Aug 09 00:05:33 *they both look shocked* HH: what?! When?! Aug 09 00:06:05 I'm sorry, are we not talking in total? Aug 09 00:06:22 *This makes them laugh* Aug 09 00:08:15 Reckon they've left for town? Aug 09 00:09:40 * HH checks his pocket watch "ah shit, it's almost quiet hour" Aug 09 00:09:55 * Morgan tries to get a bearing on Molly Aug 09 00:12:50 *he can feel her direction back at the house, and tell that she's a little on edge, but he's too far to read her thoughts* Aug 09 00:13:03 * Morgan picks up his pace Aug 09 00:14:13 We joggin' back? Aug 09 00:14:28 yeah... Molly's on edge about something Aug 09 00:14:43 Prob'ly about where you are! Aug 09 00:14:49 Most likely Aug 09 00:15:30 Mebbie just emotional with 'er sailing th' scarlet sea next week Aug 09 00:16:19 Maybe Aug 09 00:16:45 C: why can't you just call it her course like a normal person?! Aug 09 00:16:59 normal... person... Aug 09 00:17:16 Y' sayin' I'm neither? Aug 09 00:17:37 You're definitely not the former Aug 09 00:18:21 Se'enteen years o' being yer best friend will do that to a person Aug 09 00:18:46 Thats a fair point Aug 09 00:19:53 It's only been th' last year that it's been really weird Aug 09 00:20:53 * Morgan nods Aug 09 00:21:04 Three years before that were pretty bloody weird for me... now all this... Aug 09 00:21:41 * HH nods Aug 09 00:22:11 We saw some weird forest beast lady, an' we're just talkin' about bubbies like it's a normal day Aug 09 00:22:47 Going to have to get you a book... my first supernatural creatures book... something like that Aug 09 00:24:36 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Aug 09 01:07:34 * HH has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Aug 09 12:08:04 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.150) has joined Aug 09 12:44:44 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Aug 09 12:45:10 * MollyK is now known as HH Aug 09 12:45:23 Yeah, can tick 'em off as we go along Aug 09 12:45:54 * Morgan nods, looking round as they move Aug 09 12:48:21 C: what's going on here? Aug 09 12:48:41 Hmm? Aug 09 12:50:32 C: why is someone sacrificing animals? Aug 09 12:50:50 Communing with their goddess... Aug 09 12:55:13 C: why here? Aug 09 12:55:36 * Morgan shrugs Aug 09 12:55:45 The spring maybe... and lets be honest, its very private Aug 09 12:59:36 * HH smirks Aug 09 12:59:52 Yer good at finding private outdoor places, so I trust yer judgement Aug 09 13:00:05 * Morgan blushes hard Aug 09 13:03:24 C: what are you planning to do? Aug 09 13:03:37 Bring 'is wife out here... Aug 09 13:04:17 No, bit too much of a walk Aug 09 13:05:28 Two hours walkin', two minutes o' fun Aug 09 13:05:52 C: I'm so glad I'm not a man. Aug 09 13:06:28 If its two minutes of fun you're either doing something wrong or you deserve pity Aug 09 13:07:22 * HH chuckles "sometimes y' gotta squeeze it in where you can" Aug 09 13:07:42 Always the way in my case Aug 09 13:07:49 * Morgan stops, looking shocked Aug 09 13:07:57 I'm sorry... I've no idea where that came from Aug 09 13:08:29 * HH looks at him "that hole, middle of her belly? It's not for yer manhood, even if it is a snug fit" Aug 09 13:09:34 * Morgan shrugs a little, getting moving again Aug 09 13:10:52 C: were you boasting about the size of your manhood?! Aug 09 13:11:31 ummm... I don't know, was I? Aug 09 13:13:55 Reckon y' were Aug 09 13:14:12 Doesn't sound like the sort of thing I'd do Aug 09 13:16:48 Nope, but nor does swiving in public, an' yet... Aug 09 13:17:30 No idea what you're talking about Aug 09 13:19:16 * HH just rolls his eyes Aug 09 13:19:33 How y' Gon' deal with the pagan nonsense then? Aug 09 13:19:50 * Morgan shrugs Aug 09 13:20:22 Can't pray at an altar that don't exist Aug 09 13:24:16 C: yes you can. Ask Uinise. Aug 09 13:24:50 * HH quietly says to Morgan "sounds like someone wants to pray at Uinise's altar" Aug 09 13:25:39 You only just figured that out? Aug 09 13:27:48 No, jus' being witty Aug 09 13:28:20 oh... Aug 09 13:30:33 C: destroy the spring? Aug 09 13:30:52 Its an option Aug 09 13:37:02 Mebbie better just to tell 'em to pack it the fuck in? Aug 09 13:37:29 Not sure I see the point. Not like any of them listen to me Aug 09 13:37:43 Pagans? Aug 09 13:39:29 Any of these idiots. Aug 09 13:41:51 C: there's going to be trouble if they're caught Aug 09 13:42:48 * Morgan nods Aug 09 13:43:18 That being said... noones visited there except this group since I was here last Aug 09 13:43:54 C: how long ago was that? Aug 09 13:44:32 I was Varicks age Aug 09 13:44:39 Maybe a little older Aug 09 13:45:33 Hundreds o' years ago then Aug 09 13:46:53 Ma as well be Aug 09 13:47:50 Know anythin' about them? Gotta be fairly local t' know o' the place an' that it's empty? Aug 09 13:48:44 Must be frankly. I'd be tempted to go snooping but... its not like they'll pay any damn attention to anything I say, so balls to it, I'll deal with it in my own time Aug 09 13:49:03 * HH nods Aug 09 13:49:22 Gotta make th' best o' it while we're here, right? Aug 09 13:50:34 * Morgan nod Aug 09 13:50:35 Yeah Aug 09 13:51:05 Florrie was lookin' pretty happy Aug 09 13:51:48 * Morgan nods Aug 09 13:51:57 Yep. Happily off with Christopher talking all things plants Aug 09 13:52:12 Good to see Aug 09 13:58:21 * Morgan nods Aug 09 13:58:23 Yes it is Aug 09 13:59:41 Nice f' the kids to have each other t' spend time with Aug 09 13:59:59 * Morgan nods Aug 09 14:01:39 Should've seen them bickering over which bed they wanted Aug 09 14:02:13 Yeah? Aug 09 14:02:52 Soon as I laid on one they both wanted that... til I explained that Edward had had the other one when we were children... Aug 09 14:03:47 * HH chuckles Aug 09 14:03:55 Then they wanted th' other? Aug 09 14:04:05 No, Florrie did. Aug 09 14:05:32 * HH nods "you glad y' brought her?" Aug 09 14:06:59 How could I not be, seeing her face when we got in the hothouse... Aug 09 14:08:12 * HH nods "that was cute" Aug 09 14:08:26 * Morgan nods Aug 09 14:09:05 Ideal place f' her Aug 09 14:09:51 * Morgan nods Aug 09 14:09:54 I knew she'd like it Aug 09 14:10:40 * HH nods Aug 09 14:10:51 E'eryone seems t' be having a good time Aug 09 14:12:05 * Morgan nods, frowning Aug 09 14:12:43 'Cept you? Aug 09 14:13:08 I -was- Aug 09 14:13:39 Mebbie spend some time with yer wife, take yer mind off it? Aug 09 14:14:09 If we have time Aug 09 14:15:32 If we speed up I Reck'n we could get twenty minutes o' quiet time Aug 09 14:15:41 * Morgan sighs Aug 09 14:15:42 Come on then Aug 09 14:16:19 *HH makes it into a race, and he and Claudia are pretty close by the time they get back* Aug 09 14:17:23 * Morgan trails a little way behind them Aug 09 14:18:30 *they're in a full blown tussle reaching for the front door handle by the time he catches up. It's unusual to see Claudia indulging her childish side* Aug 09 14:19:35 * Morgan stands back, watching them Aug 09 14:22:04 *She puts him in a headlock, and he drops low to twist out of it, almost knocking her over* Aug 09 14:23:38 * Morgan moves round to the side, stepping round them to get to the door Aug 09 14:24:15 Oh hell no! Aug 09 14:24:56 C: *she grabs Morgan round the waist, holding him back* Aug 09 14:25:50 * Morgan reaches, grabbing hold of her belt and hoisting her off the ground Aug 09 14:27:36 *Claudia laughs automatically before suddenly saying "stop!" Aug 09 14:27:54 * Morgan lowers her to the ground gently Aug 09 14:28:18 *Claudia breathes out slowly* I'm good... I'm good Aug 09 14:28:33 * Morgan nods, backing up a couple of steps Aug 09 14:28:45 Sorry. Didn't think Aug 09 14:28:57 C: *she shakes her head, opening her arms* it's okay Aug 09 14:29:07 * Morgan looks at her arms Aug 09 14:29:14 You sure? If its too soon... Aug 09 14:29:25 C: I'm alright Aug 09 14:29:41 * Morgan nods, stepping in and hugging her hard Aug 09 14:29:57 *She hugs him hard back* Aug 09 14:30:21 * Morgan lets her go, squeezing her hand briefly Aug 09 14:31:32 C: don't worry about it, okay? We're good Aug 09 14:34:42 I know. Just a resurfacing feeling, not any sort of doubt I'd do anything to you. Except maybe kick your ass Aug 09 14:35:06 *she scoffs* dream on Aug 09 14:36:33 Sometimes I have to be content that -I- know the truth, even if you non believers can't accept it Aug 09 14:37:22 HH: That's called delusion. Aug 09 14:37:40 Fairly sure its also called religion Aug 09 14:38:28 * HH laughs Aug 09 14:39:01 Yeah. Come on, twenty minutes to worship at our own pers'nal altars... Aug 09 14:39:30 Would've been there by now... Aug 09 14:41:53 * HH nods, opening the door. He wastes no more time in the hall, taking the stairs two at a time Aug 09 14:42:34 * Morgan sighs, trying to get a location for Molly Aug 09 14:44:27 *she's up in their room* Aug 09 14:44:51 C: I guess I'm gonna get coffee. See you in a bit? Aug 09 14:45:51 Go find Uinise. Aug 09 14:53:37 C: she's probably taking a nap Aug 09 14:54:01 She won't mind. Aug 09 14:56:21 *Claudia nods, heading upstairs* Aug 09 14:56:59 * Morgan squares his shoulders, heading up to his room Aug 09 14:59:35 * HH is now known as Molly Aug 09 15:00:01 * Molly is sat on the bed with a book, tea on the bedside table Aug 09 15:00:59 * Morgan closes the door quietly Aug 09 15:03:09 * Molly smiles Aug 09 15:03:29 *in Avalonian* Good afternoon, your Grace... Aug 09 15:03:58 Still sounds weird Aug 09 15:08:15 * Molly nods Aug 09 15:08:28 Are you staying? Aug 09 15:09:06 I assume we're going to town later? Aug 09 15:13:12 * Molly smiles Aug 09 15:13:24 Yes, we are. You do want to come? Aug 09 15:13:41 * Morgan nods Aug 09 15:13:55 Aye. How did Florrie get on after I left? Aug 09 15:16:20 Fine, my love. Your uncle has many thriving plants. We can back to take Bir out there, and she enjoyed the heat and high perches Aug 09 15:16:39 * Morgan nods Aug 09 15:16:44 I did wonder if that might be the case Aug 09 15:18:36 Everything was fine here. How are you? Aug 09 15:22:34 I'm... unhappy. Aug 09 15:47:05 About Florrie? Aug 09 15:48:08 No... I'm a little sad about that... Claudia found animal sacrifices and carvings of runes in the woods. When we got there there was a dryad... Aug 09 15:52:38 Oh dear... Aug 09 15:53:36 This place feels... sullied. Aug 09 15:55:37 * Molly looks sad "oh my love..." Aug 09 15:56:45 * Morgan shrugs Aug 09 15:56:57 Its on our land. I don't want that here. Aug 09 16:03:10 * Molly nods slowly Aug 09 16:03:22 The sacrifices, or the dryad? Aug 09 16:03:50 Any of it Aug 09 16:06:40 * Molly nods Aug 09 16:06:47 What were the symbols? Aug 09 16:07:17 * Morgan thinks, trying to show her the ones he remembers Aug 09 16:10:03 Ohh... okay. Aug 09 16:10:52 You recognise them? Aug 09 16:12:17 Mmhmm Aug 09 16:12:52 * Morgan sighs Aug 09 16:13:00 Am I going to have to drag it out of you? Aug 09 16:15:23 * Molly sighs Aug 09 16:18:36 That sounds rather more fun in an intimate way... No. They are symbols of the old ways of Avalon. They are used for the spring equinox, the time of balance between light and dark with light prevailing. They honour the divine feminine in her maiden form and the divine masculine as her swain, and fertility and so on. They celebrate the coming growth Aug 09 16:18:36 and abundance of the year Aug 09 16:20:58 * Morgan sighs Aug 09 16:21:03 pagans Aug 09 16:24:18 * Molly nods, picking up her tea Aug 09 16:24:22 Yes, indeed. Aug 09 16:27:29 right Aug 09 16:28:27 * Molly watches him Aug 09 16:28:48 It's not anything intending to harm people Aug 09 16:29:23 Better than witches I suppose Aug 09 16:33:02 Most "witches" are just women who are not conventionally attractive who know about herbs... Aug 09 16:33:31 Not in my experience Aug 09 16:35:05 * Molly shrugs Aug 09 16:35:18 You dreamt that people assumed that of me... Aug 09 16:35:55 I did Aug 09 16:43:00 We could subtly put out feelers in the town?

Aug 09 20:28:37 There's no need for us to all go Aug 09 20:28:57 No, just you and I Aug 09 20:29:05 There's no need Aug 09 20:30:04 It is more sensible for me to be with you to heal. Aug 09 20:30:31 If they are only there to worship their goddess, there is no danger Aug 09 20:31:25 You do not want me to go... Aug 09 20:32:08 No, I don't Aug 09 20:32:27 Why? Aug 09 20:33:40 There is no need. I'm quite capable of keeping myself safe, and the children will need you to keep them safe and settled Aug 09 20:34:07 * MollyK sighs Aug 09 20:34:13 Alright Aug 09 20:34:52 I'm not planning to create waves Aug 09 20:35:47 Yes Aug 09 20:36:19 * Morgan frowns Aug 09 20:38:00 I am doing as you wish, but I do not have to like it Aug 09 20:39:40 What reason do you have for wishing to go? Aug 09 20:41:27 It is safer if there is trouble because I can knock people out. I can heal anyone who needs it. And I know about the old ways of Avalon Aug 09 20:41:52 Why would there be trouble? You say they are peaceful people wishing to honour their goddess... Aug 09 20:42:23 In general, yes Aug 09 20:44:47 * Morgan sighs Aug 09 20:44:48 fine Aug 09 20:47:19 The decision is yours. I will make no fuss. Aug 09 20:47:47 You think that, but you are wrong. You can come. Aug 09 20:48:36 * MollyK frowns a little Aug 09 20:48:41 What do you mean? Aug 09 20:49:01 Doesn't matter. Aug 09 20:50:43 * MollyK watches him "you are sure? I do not want there to be trouble or hidden things between us" Aug 09 20:52:03 You wish to go. Go. Aug 09 20:52:38 * MollyK looks unsure Aug 09 20:53:05 But your preference is for me to stay Aug 09 20:54:10 You would not be happy about it, we would be at odds. Since I'm already unhappy, it makes more sense for me to be unhappy about your going since thats the state of mind I have already. Aug 09 20:54:33 * MollyK looks sad Aug 09 20:54:47 I just want to keep you safer Aug 09 20:55:04 Very well Aug 09 21:00:47 * MollyK nods Aug 09 21:00:54 How far is it? Aug 09 21:01:26 A few miles Aug 09 21:01:53 * MollyK nods Aug 09 21:02:01 Alright Aug 09 21:03:53 * Morgan rolls his neck Aug 09 21:03:59 Will Claudia be coming?

Aug 09 21:11:56 I thought she would be Aug 09 21:12:18 I -was- going to go alone Aug 09 21:12:54 Do that then. I do not want to row with you. I am not going. Aug 09 21:13:05 Oh for Petes sake Aug 09 21:14:06 * MollyK nods, sipping her tea Aug 09 21:14:30 You will leave after dinner? I assume it is because tonight is the full moon? Aug 09 21:17:16 * Morgan shrugs Aug 09 21:17:19 I'm going for a walk Aug 09 21:17:45 * MollyK nods Aug 09 21:18:05 Would you have us delay the walk to town, or will you meet us there? Aug 09 21:18:39 Whatever... no doubt whatever I choose will be wrong Aug 09 21:21:44 Alright Aug 09 21:22:48 * Morgan leaves the room, grumbling Aug 09 21:24:40 *he hears Uinise laughing from her room* Aug 09 21:24:55 * Morgan huffs, trying to remember the way up to the roof Aug 09 21:29:46 *he can, but he bumps into his uncle on the way* Aug 09 21:29:56 * MollyK is now known as Christopher Aug 09 21:30:06 Good afternoon, dear boy! Aug 09 21:30:11 Uncle Aug 09 21:30:27 We missed you at luncheon Aug 09 21:30:34 sorry Aug 09 21:32:12 Enjoying an excursion with your friends? Aug 09 21:32:37 Something like that, yes. Been a long time since I was in the woods Aug 09 21:33:06 Which way did you go? Aug 09 21:33:30 Off down toward the spring Aug 09 21:34:08 I haven't been there since you and Edward were young Aug 09 21:34:31 * Morgan nods Aug 09 21:35:59 We could go tomorrow, Florrie would like the plants Aug 09 21:36:45 No, its a bit far for her... besides, there's plenty of plants here for her to see Aug 09 21:36:56 * Christopher smiles Aug 09 21:37:09 She's a very engaging child Aug 09 21:37:29 * Morgan nods Aug 09 21:37:36 She's taken to you really well Aug 09 21:37:52 * Christopher smiles Aug 09 21:38:13 We bonded over our mutual need to pass water in the hot house I think Aug 09 21:38:38 It takes a bit more than that. She doesn't open up to people that quickly, at all Aug 09 21:40:07 * Christopher nods Aug 09 21:40:12 I am honoured Aug 09 21:40:28 * Morgan nods Aug 09 21:40:34 Its a rare thing for her Aug 09 21:40:55 * Christopher nods Aug 09 21:41:03 It is good to have you all here Aug 09 21:42:25 It feels a little like going back in time Aug 09 21:42:52 * Christopher smiles "back to your childhood" Aug 09 21:43:02 * Morgan nods Aug 09 21:43:11 Yes. Aug 09 21:45:42 Verity used to say the same thing seeing you play here Aug 09 21:46:31 I'm looking forward to being closer to her... Aug 09 21:47:18 * Christopher nods Aug 09 21:47:44 It was difficult when she moved away, and I always looked forward to her visits Aug 09 21:48:05 The mirror helps? Aug 09 21:48:54 Very much. I will speak to her again tomorrow Aug 09 21:49:17 * Morgan nods Aug 09 21:49:35 Good... what do you know of the old ways? Aug 09 21:50:41 That it is a worship of other powers they believe in that are not Theus. Nature, and so on Aug 09 21:51:24 * Morgan nods Aug 09 21:51:32 You take any issue with those that practice it? Aug 09 21:52:00 The church and the crown strictly forbid it Aug 09 21:52:18 I know... but that isn't what I asked Aug 09 21:54:17 At a personal level, it is not my business to point a finger at sinners. Let he is who is without sin... Aug 09 21:54:47 You're not fussed as long as they're not harming anyone... Aug 09 21:55:23 And they do not cause an area to come to the attention of the crown and church Aug 09 21:55:46 * Morgan nods Aug 09 21:55:49 Thats what I thought Aug 09 21:56:28 What about you, Morgan? Aug 09 21:57:23 My relationship with Theus has been... strained, and at times, estranged. A mans faith is noones business but his own, providing no others come to harm because of it Aug 09 21:57:34 * Christopher nods Aug 09 21:57:39 I agree with you Aug 09 22:00:23 If there were those practicing the old ways within your boundaries? Aug 09 22:02:30 I would be concerned for Catterick, but their adherence to the faith or not is between them and Theus Aug 09 22:02:58 You would banish them? Or just wish them to be discrete? Aug 09 22:05:49 It would be my duty to hand them over to the authorities, if I had evidence Aug 09 22:06:39 * Morgan nods Aug 09 22:06:42 That'd be unfortunate Aug 09 22:08:20 * Christopher nods Aug 09 22:08:35 I would prefer that doesn't happen Aug 09 22:08:52 * Morgan nods Aug 09 22:08:56 I understand Aug 09 22:10:23 * Christopher nods Aug 09 22:10:45 Are you ready to walk to town? Aug 09 22:11:17 I suppose I am Aug 09 22:15:06 * Christopher smiles Aug 09 22:15:28 Good, let's all meet in the hall in fifteeen minutes? Aug 09 22:15:58 * Morgan nods Aug 09 22:16:02 I suppose I'll get the others Aug 09 22:17:12 Thank you Aug 09 22:17:33 * Morgan nods, going back to his room Aug 09 22:24:16 * Christopher is now known as Molly Aug 09 22:24:22 * Molly isn't there Aug 09 22:24:35 [where are you?] Aug 09 22:26:24 [feeding Emil in the nursery] Aug 09 22:26:56 My uncle wishes us all to be ready in fifteen minutes Aug 09 22:28:22 [My uncle wishes us all to be ready in fifteen minutes] Aug 09 22:31:08 [we are almost done] Aug 09 22:31:18 [I'll go let the others know] Aug 09 22:33:20 [thank you] Aug 09 22:33:31 * Morgan leaves, going to alert the others Aug 09 22:34:38 *Heinzharold and Inga are just coming out, he's groping her bottom whilst she giggles* Aug 09 22:35:41 Hey. My uncle wants to be going in fifteen minutes Aug 09 22:36:08 HH: Yeah, we're good to go Aug 09 22:37:06 * Morgan nods Aug 09 22:37:16 Can you let James and Elsie know... I'll tell Uinise Aug 09 22:37:52 *He nods* Sure man, everythin' okay? Aug 09 22:40:44 * Morgan shrugs Aug 09 22:40:45 Fine Aug 09 22:41:57 *HH nods slowly* okay. See you downstairs? Aug 09 22:42:22 * Morgan nods Aug 09 22:42:23 In the hall Aug 09 22:42:31 *he nods* Aug 09 22:42:41 * Molly is now known as Uinise Aug 09 22:43:27 * Morgan heads to Uinise's room, knocking Aug 09 22:43:47 * Uinise opens the door Aug 09 22:45:16 My uncle wishes to depart for town in fifteen minutes Aug 09 22:47:19 * Uinise nods, smiling "Clowdia is taking my tray back to the kitchen" Aug 09 22:48:22 * Morgan nods Aug 09 22:48:28 We'll meet you in the hall when its time Aug 09 22:49:26 * Uinise nods Aug 09 22:51:44 * Morgan nods, heading back to the nursery Aug 09 22:51:56 * Uinise is now known as Molly Aug 09 22:52:08 * Molly is just doing up her dress Aug 09 22:52:25 V: I'm ready, Vati! *he comes running over* Aug 09 22:52:35 E: Vah-eee! Aug 09 22:52:48 * Morgan strokes Varicks hair Aug 09 22:52:50 Good lad Aug 09 22:53:04 Alice... I forgot to tell Alice Aug 09 22:53:36 I'll go *She puts Emil on her hip* Aug 09 22:54:04 If you wish Aug 09 22:55:14 * Molly does so Aug 09 22:55:26 V: I think Mama is sad Aug 09 22:55:32 * Molly is now known as Varick Aug 09 22:55:51 Is she Aug 09 22:58:58 * Varick nods Aug 09 22:59:10 She's not smiling like normal Aug 09 22:59:28 I see Aug 09 23:00:21 Should we do the head scratches again? Aug 09 23:00:59 Maybe. Mama and I are disagreeing about something Aug 09 23:01:09 Why? Aug 09 23:01:27 Sometimes grown ups just do Aug 09 23:02:41 Lady Eldreich used to disagree with her men a lot, and she used to argue with my first Vati Aug 09 23:03:48 well... she wasn't very nice Aug 09 23:07:17 I don't like when people argue Aug 09 23:07:36 * Morgan nods, kneeling down to hug him Aug 09 23:07:39 Its alright Aug 09 23:08:17 * Varick hugs him hard Aug 09 23:09:40 Do you still love each other? Aug 09 23:09:46 Of course we do Aug 09 23:10:11 Okay Vati Aug 09 23:11:00 We'll be alright son Aug 09 23:11:17 * Varick nods Aug 09 23:11:34 Is there really a sweet shop in the town?

Aug 09 23:15:06 * Morgan nods Aug 09 23:15:13 [we'll meet you in the hall] Aug 09 23:16:38 [yes, liebes herz] Aug 09 23:17:28 * Morgan leads Varick down to the hall to wait Aug 09 23:19:57 *they're all soon gathered together, the two smallest children in wrapping cloths, Varick and Florrie excites to go. They all head out into the sunshine, Christopher telling them about the small town and its history as they go* Aug 09 23:20:25 * Morgan wanders along, looking round Aug 09 23:26:41 *things are peaceful and pretty, nothing has changed in a decade.
