**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Nov 27 00:00:27 2023 Nov 27 00:00:27 * Morgan nods, looking over at the children Nov 27 00:01:13 Painful as its been, first seeing her, the flashbacks its caused... I'd endure it again to have you both in my life Nov 27 00:01:34 * Alice nods Nov 27 00:02:13 Maybe the universe had created such a beautiful girl it decided it needed a second Nov 27 00:02:46 * Morgan nods Nov 27 00:02:55 Thats a lovely thought Nov 27 00:03:21 I told my parents about her abilities... Nov 27 00:03:33 * Alice nods seriously Nov 27 00:03:44 do they still want to meet her? Nov 27 00:04:56 My mothers Avalonian, she's more or less immune to the Eisen outrage when it comes to magic... my father... well, we come from possibly the most superstitious part of Eisen, so he didn't take it well at first. He'll find it a little difficult, I expect Nov 27 00:05:31 * Alice nods Nov 27 00:05:43 Florrie’s safe though? Nov 27 00:06:46 Do you believe I would allow her to be in a situation where she was not? Besides... he has bigger concerns Nov 27 00:08:48 because of how she looks? Nov 27 00:09:34 No, that'll be hard for them but... no... I rather threw myself on the fire to redirect his ire... Nov 27 00:10:36 what did you do? Nov 27 00:11:20 I gave him something else to concentrate on... that being -my- abilities Nov 27 00:12:27 * Alice nods Nov 27 00:12:43 I don’t imagine he liked that? Nov 27 00:13:07 No... I thought I was getting disowned for a while Nov 27 00:15:55 * Alice looks at him Nov 27 00:16:05 you did that, for Florrie? Nov 27 00:16:57 We had decided it would be... wise for them to know, but he rather forced my hand... I wasn't having him feeling like that toward her, so I gave him a bigger problem to concentrate on Nov 27 00:17:51 * Alice nods Nov 27 00:18:24 I’m grateful. Florrie hasn’t really had anyone else to look out for her Nov 27 00:18:55 She's got a whole family who will now. Nov 27 00:19:53 * Alice nods, smiling Nov 27 00:20:52 I do wonder, if he’d really been free, maybe if I’d gotten his name, what might have been different Nov 27 00:21:23 * Morgan nods Nov 27 00:21:53 I'm certain there was a path that would've wound up with the two of you married Nov 27 00:22:24 would we have been happy? Nov 27 00:22:54 * Morgan shrugs Nov 27 00:23:06 Maybe... Nov 27 00:24:37 * Alice nods, watching Florrie Nov 27 00:25:48 I see your happy family, and Elsie’s, and Inga and Heinzharold and I see what maybe I could have. Florrie can’t grow up on a ship Nov 27 00:26:33 You're not on a ship anymore love... Nov 27 00:28:49 No, but if it wasn’t for Florrie I’d still be sailing Nov 27 00:29:22 * Morgan nods Nov 27 00:29:29 You're settled and happy on the island though... Nov 27 00:31:26 I am. I’m just at a crossroads with all this with Edward Nov 27 00:31:43 How do you mean? Nov 27 00:33:45 I don’t know what it’ll be like. the uncertainty is unsettling Nov 27 00:53:21 * Alice has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Nov 27 01:34:46 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Nov 27 12:27:59 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Nov 27 13:15:41 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Nov 27 13:15:56 You're not on a ship anymore love... Nov 27 13:15:56 No, but if it wasn’t for Florrie I’d still be sailing Nov 27 13:15:56 * Morgan nods Nov 27 13:15:56 You're settled and happy on the island though... Nov 27 13:15:56 I am. I’m just at a crossroads with all this with Edward Nov 27 13:15:58 How do you mean? Nov 27 13:16:00 I don’t know what it’ll be like. the uncertainty is unsettling Nov 27 13:16:40 * Morgan nods Nov 27 13:16:43 I can appreciate that Nov 27 13:17:53 * Molly is now known as Alice Nov 27 13:18:02 * Alice nods Nov 27 13:18:37 There’s his wife too, and how she will be with Florrie and I Nov 27 13:19:07 * Morgan nods Nov 27 13:19:57 I am worried about that... Nov 27 13:22:23 * Alice nods Nov 27 13:23:14 I grew up with noblewomen, I know how they can be Nov 27 13:23:48 * Morgan nods Nov 27 13:24:12 The issue is... she's hurting... and she's scared Nov 27 13:26:43 * Alice nods Nov 27 13:26:59 if I’d known he was committed I’d never have done it Nov 27 13:27:45 Its a bit more complicated than that... but we are where we are, and we have to deal with the situation Nov 27 13:30:16 * Alice nods Nov 27 13:30:43 I just don’t like things being so out of my control Nov 27 13:31:38 No... nor do I Nov 27 13:33:48 * Alice nods Nov 27 13:34:02 I worry he’ll want to keep her Nov 27 13:34:39 I couldn't blame him for wanting that... but he knows it isn't on the cards Nov 27 13:36:31 is it that easy though? I know he already loves her Nov 27 13:37:13 Do you recall... I promised you I would not let them take her from you? Nov 27 13:38:27 * Alice nods Nov 27 13:38:31 I know Nov 27 13:39:38 I stand by that Nov 27 13:39:45 * Alice nods Nov 27 13:39:58 I’ll be glad when he’s here Nov 27 13:41:14 * Morgan nods Nov 27 13:41:33 Would you consider leaving the island? Nov 27 13:48:01 No, I don’t think so Nov 27 13:49:03 * Morgan nods a little, looking over at the children Nov 27 13:50:45 But that’s up to you, isn’t it? Nov 27 13:51:23 How so? Nov 27 13:52:41 if you decide to sell it, or want to replace me there, that’s up to you Nov 27 14:06:06 Oh, I wouldn't worry about either of those options. Nov 27 14:06:50 * Alice nods Nov 27 14:07:03 I don’t want my life dictated by him Nov 27 14:07:22 No, thats not going to happen Nov 27 14:11:10 * Alice nods Nov 27 14:11:34 *Florrie and Varick are playing chase* Nov 27 14:11:59 it won’t be long before Emil is joining them Nov 27 14:12:17 No... albeit much slower Nov 27 14:13:00 * Alice nods Nov 27 14:13:15 This is a nice house for children Nov 27 14:14:08 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:14:22 It really is... tons of space, even more than I thought it had Nov 27 14:19:31 the lake and stream will mean you have to teach them to swim early Nov 27 14:20:23 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:20:41 We're going to do some work around making the stream safer but... I have every intention of having the children swimming as early as I can Nov 27 14:23:21 * Alice nods Nov 27 14:24:31 *Florrie trips over and starts to cry. Varick hugs her, smoothing her hair and kissing her forehead* Nov 27 14:24:50 damn... that boy is going to be an amazing big brother Nov 27 14:28:12 He’s very compassionate and gentle Nov 27 14:28:17 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:28:22 *Florrie seems to be settling well* Nov 27 14:28:31 I think part of that stems from how he was treated... Nov 27 14:28:53 Molly said he’d had a traumatic upbringing Nov 27 14:29:03 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:29:19 Extremely... my cousin would, on her kinder days, lock him in a small cupboard in his room Nov 27 14:33:29 * Alice shakes her head Nov 27 14:33:43 that’s no way for a child to live Nov 27 14:34:19 No, it really isn't Nov 27 14:36:05 He’s done well Nov 27 14:36:39 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:36:52 He needed love and support, thats all... a safe place... Nov 27 14:39:38 * Alice nods, watching the children return to playing Nov 27 14:39:52 You and Molly are great parents Nov 27 14:40:01 * Morgan smiles bashfully Nov 27 14:40:04 You think so? Nov 27 14:43:17 * Alice nods Nov 27 14:43:58 Varick’s kind and responsible, Emil is all smiles Nov 27 14:44:23 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:44:36 Until Molly comes into the room and he screams like he's been starved Nov 27 14:45:48 * Alice smiles Nov 27 14:46:03 I think they do it to get a head start on the milk flow Nov 27 14:46:26 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:46:31 That makes a certain amount of sense Nov 27 14:48:22 * Alice nods Nov 27 14:48:36 It’s good she could take him too Nov 27 14:48:48 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:48:56 Couldn't really have him left here Nov 27 14:50:26 * Alice shakes her head Nov 27 14:50:43 you get one each which is nice Nov 27 14:51:01 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:51:10 He's at something of a loose end... not used to being without her Nov 27 14:53:37 * Alice nods Nov 27 14:53:42 they’re very close Nov 27 14:53:52 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:56:14 They are... they spent a lot of time together when I was traipsing all over Avalon Nov 27 14:56:43 * Alice nods Nov 27 14:57:26 Their absence is shorter than that Nov 27 14:57:47 * Morgan nods Nov 27 14:58:03 How do you want to handle Florrie meeting Edward? Nov 27 15:00:32 I think it needs to be in short spells the first few days Nov 27 15:03:03 * Morgan nods Nov 27 15:03:50 I'm going to want to talk to him before he sees her at all Nov 27 15:04:29 maybe we should wait until the following day, so she’s not tired? Nov 27 15:04:57 I suspect he'll find that difficult... but it depends what time he arrives really Nov 27 15:05:08 * Alice nods Nov 27 15:05:24 he will need to do what’s best for her Nov 27 15:05:54 He will Nov 27 15:06:54 you probably have a lot to catch up on Nov 27 15:07:40 A few things, yes. I have a plan to make things a little easier for her Nov 27 15:07:47 how? Nov 27 15:08:15 * Morgan glances over to make sure Florrie isn't looking before producing a small pouch from his coat, shaking it and putting it back Nov 27 15:08:17 seeds Nov 27 15:08:27 * Alice smiles Nov 27 15:08:34 she loves seeds Nov 27 15:09:02 * Morgan nods Nov 27 15:09:24 Given how quickly she came around to my uncle once plants were involved... I figure its the perfect ice breaker Nov 27 15:09:52 it’s a good idea. are they from Capperlucia? Nov 27 15:10:26 Oh, I've been collecting these from all over the place since you agreed to let them meet... mostly flowers though Nov 27 15:14:14 * Alice nods Nov 27 15:14:24 You love Florrie, don’t you? Nov 27 15:15:09 Of course I do Nov 27 15:16:31 * Alice nods Nov 27 15:16:38 it’s good for know Nov 27 15:16:57 it’s good to know* Nov 27 15:17:00 Why? Nov 27 15:17:27 I got so used to it just be8ng me and her, it’s good to know someone else cares for her Nov 27 15:17:45 * Morgan smiles a little Nov 27 15:17:50 We all do Nov 27 15:20:43 * Alice smiles Nov 27 15:21:19 Are you excited about the baptisms? Nov 27 15:21:43 * Morgan looks at her seriously Nov 27 15:21:49 You do know I love you too, right? Nov 27 15:24:34 * Alice nods Nov 27 15:25:01 yes, I love all of you. My family and I aren’t close, but I have good friends Nov 27 15:25:10 * Morgan nods Nov 27 15:25:18 Far as I'm concerned you -are- family... Molly feels the same Nov 27 15:26:57 * Alice nods Nov 27 15:27:19 your brother’s former mistress Nov 27 15:27:27 * Morgan snorts Nov 27 15:27:31 That has nothing to do with it Nov 27 15:30:09 * Alice smiles Nov 27 15:30:25 I’d never have been his mistress, or anyone’s Nov 27 15:30:47 * Morgan nods Nov 27 15:32:24 I am looking forward to the baptisms... not really looking forward to having to be so... showy... Nov 27 15:33:43 * Alice nods Nov 27 15:33:48 it’s a big performance Nov 27 15:33:55 * Morgan nods Nov 27 15:34:00 but... it is necessary Nov 27 15:36:41 * Alice nods Nov 27 15:36:57 it always was when I grew up. I hated it Nov 27 15:38:00 * Morgan nods Nov 27 15:39:00 I just wanted to sail and be happy. Nov 27 15:39:05 * Alice smiles Nov 27 15:39:29 My godfather was a ship owner, I inherited the Blessing from him Nov 27 15:39:48 * Morgan nods Nov 27 15:40:01 That must've pleased your parents no end Nov 27 15:44:27 My mother died when I was very young, but that was when I got disowned Nov 27 15:44:56 * Morgan nods slowly Nov 27 15:45:12 Its... disgusting. Nov 27 15:47:08 * Alice shrugs Nov 27 15:47:16 it’s been difficult but I’m free Nov 27 15:47:31 * Morgan nods Nov 27 15:47:40 You do not feel tied down by me? Nov 27 15:50:05 no, I could leave if I wanted to Nov 27 15:50:20 * Morgan nods Nov 27 15:50:21 good Nov 27 15:53:03 Idont want to feel tied down by Edward Nov 27 15:53:19 I'm not sure how you could be... Nov 27 15:55:56 He might want to see her a lot Nov 27 15:56:14 He might, yes... which I could understand and I think you could too... Nov 27 16:00:13 * Alice nods Nov 27 16:00:21 I could, but I don’t want it Nov 27 16:00:29 No? Nov 27 16:03:11 I like to make my own choices Nov 27 16:04:20 But if he was to see her regularly you would not be? Nov 27 16:05:46 maybe not. it’s tough to know Nov 27 16:06:23 I think perhaps you've spent so long calling all the shots, out at sea, you're seeing concessions to others as surrendering your control Nov 27 16:07:22 * Alice nods Nov 27 16:07:30 perhaps Nov 27 16:08:16 * Morgan nods, watching her for a moment before looking toward the children again Nov 27 16:10:09 *they’re playing well, but they’re soon ready for lunch. Once they’re eaten, they go to Morgan’s suite Nov 27 16:10:13 * Alice is now known as Florrie Nov 27 16:10:19 I nap Varick bed. Nov 27 16:10:28 That depends on your mama Nov 27 16:11:21 * Florrie has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Nov 27 16:15:02 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Nov 27 16:15:13 * Molly is now known as Alice Nov 27 16:15:19 I think perhaps you've spent so long calling all the shots, out at sea, you're seeing concessions to others as surrendering your control Nov 27 16:15:19 * Alice nods Nov 27 16:15:19 perhaps Nov 27 16:15:19 * Morgan nods, watching her for a moment before looking toward the children again Nov 27 16:15:19 *they’re playing well, but they’re soon ready for lunch. Once they’re eaten, they go to Morgan’s suite Nov 27 16:15:22 * Alice is now known as Florrie Nov 27 16:15:26 I nap Varick bed. Nov 27 16:15:28 That depends on your mama Nov 27 16:18:01 No! I varick bed! Nov 27 16:18:06 * Alice is now known as Florrie Nov 27 16:18:27 Florrie, you have to do what your mama says Nov 27 16:18:42 No! what Florrie say! Nov 27 16:19:18 Sometimes Varick doesn't want to do what his mama says... but he does, because thats the right thing to do Nov 27 16:21:53 * Florrie pouts Nov 27 16:22:07 A: will it be a problem for you? Nov 27 16:22:36 No, not at all Nov 27 16:25:24 *Alice lets her, so Florrie takes off her shoes with Varicks help and gets into the bed. it’s so big there’s plenty of space* Nov 27 16:26:20 * Morgan watches them for a moment, stroking Varicks forehead before doing the same to Florrie Nov 27 16:26:24 Alright then, off to sleep... Nov 27 16:28:50 *they both fall asleep easily* Nov 27 16:29:06 * Morgan quietly moves back to his room, unpacking the mirror to check it Nov 27 16:30:17 *On top of it is a sealed letter that says “open at your own risk, my love, I think that's fair enough warning! I love you, always. MKxx* Nov 27 16:30:43 * Morgan frowns, opening the letter Nov 27 16:31:31 **within two folded blank pieces of thick parchment is a piece of pink cotton. The scent of it captures him immediately and powerfully. Where normally she leaves him things that smell like they have been in the front of her dress, this one is so perfectly scented with the pregnant smell of her it must have been very intimately against, or perhaps even within, her at some point* Nov 27 16:32:15 * Morgan groans quietly, folding it back into the paper Nov 27 16:33:09 *he manages to tuck it away, though he’ll likely need to reseal it to retain the scent* Nov 27 16:33:17 * Morgan does so Nov 27 16:34:00 *also in the drawer is the paper she wrote his name mid-climax upon, as well as the new mirror * Nov 27 16:34:19 * Morgan smiles, pulling the mirror out Nov 27 16:35:54 *It says “we are well, my love, Emil is happily being passed around. We stopped early for some lunch, and hope to reach Baden by three. I hope you are well. My love, MK xx” Nov 27 16:37:12 * Morgan gets some paper, writing a reply 'You, my duchess, are a terrible minx. All is well here, Florrie in with Varick for nap time. I'll check the mirror again tonight. All my love." Nov 27 16:38:38 *Nothing changes. He’s got almost an hour before the children are due to wake* Nov 27 16:38:59 * Morgan packs the things away before ringing the bell Nov 27 16:41:21 *A servant brings him coffee with two cups* Nov 27 16:41:48 * Morgan thanks them, asking if Frau Arendt is available Nov 27 16:45:54 *the maid says she’s having lunch but she could be fetched if needed* Nov 27 16:47:12 No no, I'll meet up with her later, I want to ask her opinion on some things Nov 27 16:48:33 **the maid goes back to work* Nov 27 16:48:52 * Morgan sighs, pouring himself some coffee, drinking it slowly as he watches out of the window Nov 27 16:49:19 *about ten minutes later there’s a knock on the door* Nov 27 16:49:47 Come in Nov 27 16:50:37 * Florrie is now known as HH Nov 27 16:50:45 hey Nov 27 16:50:57 Hey man. Coffee? Nov 27 16:51:02 yeah Nov 27 16:51:28 * Morgan nods, refilling his cup and pouring one for HeinzHarold Nov 27 16:51:39 * HH takes a seat Nov 27 16:51:50 not sure what to do with meself Nov 27 16:52:01 * Morgan nods Nov 27 16:52:06 Varick was the same earlier Nov 27 16:52:27 * HH nods Nov 27 16:52:34 not used to quiet hour alone Nov 27 16:52:43 Me nods Nov 27 16:52:46 Been a while Nov 27 16:53:56 yep Nov 27 16:54:29 * HH blows on the coffee “Quiet hour with a wife is excellent, without it’s rubbish” Nov 27 16:54:52 * Morgan nods Nov 27 16:55:21 If I had the books for the Grafdom I'd be looking them over but the overseer is away... Nov 27 16:56:17 * HH nods Nov 27 16:56:34 heard someone say Karlsruhe is back tomorrow though Nov 27 16:56:55 Thats ill timed if Edward arrives Nov 27 16:58:24 * HH nods Nov 27 16:58:27 yep Nov 27 16:58:44 * Morgan shrugs Nov 27 16:58:47 It is what it is Nov 27 17:00:39 * HH nods Nov 27 17:00:47 heard anything? Nov 27 17:01:12 Stopped early for lunch, hoping to reach Baden by three Nov 27 17:02:29 * HH nods Nov 27 17:02:42 they’re alright? Nov 27 17:02:55 * Morgan nods Nov 27 17:02:56 Indeed Nov 27 17:04:14 how’d it go with the draw? Nov 27 17:04:32 Doesn't seem to have been there... Nov 27 17:05:48 * HH nods Nov 27 17:05:54 That’s great, right? Nov 27 17:06:24 * Morgan nods Nov 27 17:06:36 Reckon so, aye. Nov 27 17:07:14 Just gotta keep her pregnant forever Nov 27 17:07:26 * Morgan nods Nov 27 17:07:33 I believe that is mostly the plan... Nov 27 17:08:08 driving you bonkers yet, or too early? Nov 27 17:08:21 No, its definitely having the effect... Nov 27 17:08:47 get a bit of relief with her being away though? Nov 27 17:09:04 No, not really... she's left me something that smells of her... Nov 27 17:09:42 * HH chuckles Nov 27 17:09:51 pretty common for her ain’t it? Nov 27 17:19:43 Oh yeah, absolutely Nov 27 17:22:01 she got Inga to do it this time, it’s nice Nov 27 17:22:25 * Morgan nods Nov 27 17:22:31 Makes it both easier and more difficult don't it Nov 27 17:22:52 just easier so far Nov 27 17:24:45 * Morgan nods Nov 27 17:24:52 Might change later man Nov 27 17:25:11 * HH nods Nov 27 17:25:22 Gotta be worse for you this t8me? Nov 27 17:26:30 Oh yeah, much Nov 27 17:27:20 least Claudia isn’t here to tell us off for moping Nov 27 17:27:51 I don't think were moping that much yet Nov 27 17:29:20 nope, but by tomorrow morning I bet we will Nov 27 17:29:34 * Morgan nods Nov 27 17:29:39 Quite possibly... Nov 27 17:30:56 thinkin I’ll keep building Nov 27 17:31:34 Thought you might... Gonn' ask Alice to watch Varick while I talk to Edward, but if she cant I might need you to... Nov 27 17:31:45 * HH nods Nov 27 17:31:55 Yeah, that’s no problem Nov 27 17:32:20 * Morgan nods Nov 27 17:33:07 Thanks man Nov 27 17:34:37 * HH nods “Don’t think I’ll be letting her go off without me again” Nov 27 17:34:53 No? Nov 27 17:36:20 nah, man, I wanna watch over her now, ya know?

Nov 27 22:42:20 * Morgan nods Nov 27 22:42:20 I know Nov 27 22:42:20 guess you get it too now Nov 27 22:42:20 Always did but... its more now... Nov 27 22:42:23 * HH nods Nov 27 22:42:25 still shocked? Nov 27 22:42:27 * Morgan nods Nov 27 22:42:29 utterly Nov 27 22:44:00 Seems less real with her gone? Nov 27 22:44:07 * Morgan nods Nov 27 22:44:11 Yeah, it does a bit Nov 27 22:44:39 how you doing with yer nightmares lately? Nov 27 22:45:07 Not really been having any... dreams, but not even paths mostly Nov 27 22:46:33 weird Nov 27 22:47:25 * Morgan nods Nov 27 22:47:27 I know, right Nov 27 22:48:03 * HH drinks a mouthful Nov 27 22:48:14 kinda more unsettling than when you get them Nov 27 22:50:44 * Morgan nods Nov 27 22:50:56 Sort of makes you think 'wait a minute...' Nov 27 22:52:52 is it like on the way to Capperlucia where it was all smutty? Nov 27 22:53:15 * Morgan blushes Nov 27 22:53:18 Or just... weird Nov 27 22:53:48 better than nightmares and paths then Nov 27 22:54:10 Yeah, mostly Nov 27 22:56:01 reckon her leaving will end that? Nov 27 22:56:16 * Morgan shrugs Nov 27 22:56:28 It was still mostly that way in Sudlachenburg Nov 27 22:56:49 downright suspicious is what that is Nov 27 22:57:10 * Morgan nods Nov 27 22:57:26 Mind you... it means I've been smelling that she's pregnant for a while and just not... twigged Nov 27 22:57:41 * HH chuckles Nov 27 22:58:20 Inga did ask if I thought all these times you’ve dreamt where she’s been increasing have been connected Nov 27 23:00:40 Turns out it was Nov 27 23:01:46 fucking months, man... All those dreams where you’d accidentally knocked her up when I liked her, and when you went to Carleon that first time... Nov 27 23:02:04 Ah, no... I don't reckon -those- are connected Nov 27 23:02:37 Inga reckons they all started around the time she got pregnant Nov 27 23:04:15 She might be right but those are proper paths Nov 27 23:05:41 * HH nods Nov 27 23:06:04 Sometimes she’s just pregnant and you get it on? Nov 27 23:06:25 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:06:34 well... sort of Nov 27 23:07:34 whatcha mean? Nov 27 23:08:17 One of them she had -been- pregnant but lost it in the time between seeing her Nov 27 23:09:37 probably doesn’ mean anything Nov 27 23:09:50 No, I'm fairly comfortable that it doesn't Nov 27 23:10:01 * HH nods Nov 27 23:10:11 scares me shitless Nov 27 23:10:18 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:10:20 Me too, frankly Nov 27 23:11:04 Guess it’s just part of it though, always gonn be something to worry about Nov 27 23:11:22 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:11:33 That fate witch seemed very certain of it Nov 27 23:12:51 that we’d have four, yeah, and that Inga would be okay Nov 27 23:12:57 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:13:40 * HH sips his coffee Nov 27 23:13:49 Inga’s really pleased for you guys Nov 27 23:14:43 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:14:48 It was quite obvious Nov 27 23:16:07 not gonn be too far apart in age, only three months Nov 27 23:17:34 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:17:48 Its weird... I kinda feel bad Nov 27 23:17:57 why? Nov 27 23:18:36 Sort of feels like we're stealing your thunder here... Nov 27 23:18:42 * HH chuckles Nov 27 23:19:49 nope, we talked bout that. Means Molly gets a lot more medical experience delivering babies, and Inga gets three months of helping care for a newborn so she’s good to go as soon as ours arrives Nov 27 23:20:35 I suppose... Nov 27 23:23:31 you’re probably getting the quickenin real soon, be three months before we’re announcin. Gonn be us stealing the limelight Nov 27 23:24:39 Your Ma was giving me the third degree, asking about giving her grandbabbies... Nov 27 23:26:24 * HH groans Nov 27 23:26:40 She asks me it every day I see her! Nov 27 23:28:09 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:28:25 She'll be thrilled Nov 27 23:28:36 * HH nods Nov 27 23:29:04 Oh yeah, she has been with Rebekah and Hannah’s kids Nov 27 23:29:36 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:29:47 I wonder if it'll be moreso with yours Nov 27 23:30:24 Mebbie, always been her favourite Nov 27 23:32:01 You're her boy Nov 27 23:32:44 * HH nods Nov 27 23:33:00 An I’m gorgeous, I’m gonn make gorgeous babes Nov 27 23:33:36 A distinct possibility Nov 27 23:34:23 An you’ve seen my wife... Nov 27 23:35:13 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:36:16 * HH sips his coffee Nov 27 23:37:36 you picked a spot for yer garden yet? Nov 27 23:37:51 Been a bit busy really Nov 27 23:40:09 figured it’d be very high priority, knowing yer proclivities Nov 27 23:40:54 Needed to get the visit to Sudlachenburg done... my fathers going to be bloody livid when he finds out she's pregnant Nov 27 23:43:16 why? Getting that Koertig heir he’s been obsessed with since he saw you were a boy! Nov 27 23:46:00 Telling him about the magic and having kept it from him has damaged the trust he had in me... and its only a few days ago I looked him in the eye and told him she isn't pregnant... now I get to tell him she's four odd months gone... he's going to assume I lied to him Nov 27 23:47:24 Maybe he’d believe you were just a plank? Nov 27 23:48:12 Eventually maybe. Nov 27 23:48:32 would he believe yer kid has hiding magic? Nov 27 23:49:16 He has no reason not to, really... Nov 27 23:49:24 * HH nods Nov 27 23:50:02 bringing back some old pain over telling him about Jana? Nov 27 23:50:40 * Morgan nods Nov 27 23:50:57 Yeah... thats a safe assertion Nov 27 23:51:44 probably gonna have a lot of that this time round, man. Comparing now to then Nov 27 23:52:18 * Morgan sighs Nov 27 23:52:22 Probably yeah Nov 27 23:53:07 * HH nods Nov 27 23:53:15 they fucked up, they know that Nov 27 23:53:48 * Morgan sighs Nov 27 23:54:14 He said the magic was... wanted to know how long this has poisoned his bloodline Nov 27 23:54:34 * HH rubs his forehead Nov 27 23:54:39 fucks sake. Nov 27 23:54:50 He's scared Nov 27 23:55:36 yeah, it is scary as shit at first, but it’s not a poison, man Nov 27 23:58:24 * Morgan sips his coffee Nov 27 23:58:45 It upsets me that he was like that... but I don't blame him. Nov 27 23:59:11 part of you still feels like that?
