Apr 01 00:01:20 * Morgan glances around Apr 01 00:01:24 I want to hear my son Apr 01 00:02:43 * Molly nods, getting into the bedroom and locking the door behind them Apr 01 00:02:57 I’d best undress quickly then, hmm? Apr 01 00:03:03 * Morgan smiles Apr 01 00:03:05 Yes please Apr 01 00:04:04 * Molly does so, soon naked and curved. She strokes her belly Apr 01 00:04:06 Better? Apr 01 00:04:19 * Morgan nods Apr 01 00:04:23 Yes... absolutely yes Apr 01 00:06:00 * Molly nods, lying down on the bed Apr 01 00:06:11 this is where you want me? Apr 01 00:06:49 * Morgan nods, undressing and getting onto the bed Apr 01 00:06:54 yes Apr 01 00:08:52 * Molly runs her fingers down the line on her bump “are you ready?” Apr 01 00:09:15 * Morgan nods, laying his head against her belly Apr 01 00:10:30 *he can very, very faintly hear something Apr 01 00:10:50 * Morgan goes still, listening Apr 01 00:12:26 *it’s still extremely quiet, and he has to really strain, but he can very faintly hear that fast rhythm Apr 01 00:12:35 * Morgan laughs suddenly Apr 01 00:14:26 what’s wrong, my love? Apr 01 00:14:39 Oh, love... nothing. Apr 01 00:14:56 * Morgan concentrates, listening hard before sending the sound to her Apr 01 00:15:12 Oh! that’s our son! Apr 01 00:15:20 Yes it is Apr 01 00:17:01 * Molly smiles, looking down at him “Our little stag” Apr 01 00:17:25 * Morgan nods, tapping at her belly Apr 01 00:17:49 *nothing changes* Apr 01 00:18:23 * Morgan concentrates, trying to sense him before doing it again Apr 01 00:20:23 *He doesn’t moves* Apr 01 00:20:36 Would you... just... check him... Apr 01 00:20:54 * Molly nods. His neck prickles Apr 01 00:21:07 He’s fine, my love, he’s sleeping Apr 01 00:21:15 * Morgan nods, exhaling Apr 01 00:21:24 Its hard work growing Apr 01 00:22:59 * Molly strokes his hair Apr 01 00:23:05 He’s fine, my love Apr 01 00:23:24 * Morgan nods Apr 01 00:23:25 Good Apr 01 00:25:14 * Molly nods, just relaxing Apr 01 00:25:54 * Morgan is quiet for a couple of minutes Apr 01 00:26:04 Edward wants you and mother to be present when father meets Florrie Apr 01 00:26:22 mmhmm that’s fine Apr 01 00:26:36 * Morgan nods Apr 01 00:27:02 I've told Edward he is to have DeeDee accompany them home, and I want them to use a different route Apr 01 00:29:07 * Molly nods, rubbing the skin at the side of his head with her thumb “It’d be safer?” Apr 01 00:29:45 * Morgan nods Apr 01 00:31:29 That’s smart, my love Apr 01 00:31:41 * Morgan nods Apr 01 00:31:50 I didn't exactly tell him why Apr 01 00:32:53 No? Apr 01 00:33:32 DeeDee asked me not to Apr 01 00:34:59 * Molly nods Apr 01 00:35:46 I think he’s still very attracted to Claudia Apr 01 00:36:53 * Morgan nods Apr 01 00:36:56 Quite protective too Apr 01 00:37:47 * Molly nods Apr 01 00:38:00 He was when we faced the Ashkoven too Apr 01 00:38:12 * Morgan nods Apr 01 00:38:13 Indeed Apr 01 00:38:33 How is she feeling about seeing him again? Apr 01 00:39:03 Not good. She wants me to ask the Nieblungen to remove the attraction for her Apr 01 00:39:51 Can they do so? Apr 01 00:40:00 I believe so Apr 01 00:40:31 * Molly nods Apr 01 00:40:43 what do you think about it? Apr 01 00:40:59 well... its not like they'll ever get together Apr 01 00:41:30 * Molly nods Apr 01 00:41:43 Not if she is dead set against it Apr 01 00:41:50 Which she is Apr 01 00:42:05 * Molly nods Apr 01 00:42:42 But then... so were we at first? Apr 01 00:43:01 True but I think that is different Apr 01 00:43:56 why, my love? Apr 01 00:44:15 I was healing from loss... not the trauma she faced Apr 01 00:44:26 * Molly nods Apr 01 00:44:46 I’ll support you in whatever way you need Apr 01 00:44:55 * Morgan nods Apr 01 00:44:56 I know love Apr 01 00:45:41 * Molly stays quiet, still stroking his hair Apr 01 00:47:25 * Morgan closes his eyes, listening Apr 01 00:48:49 *the quiet sound continues restfully Apr 01 00:49:41 * Morgan yawns Apr 01 00:49:46 I suppose its time to sleep Apr 01 00:50:39 alright liebling, we can do that Apr 01 00:50:58 * Morgan nods, kissing her belly briefly Apr 01 00:54:02 *She smells very good, and aroused, but as she’s sitting up she says “I’m going to get ready for bed” Apr 01 00:54:26 But... no, come here Apr 01 00:56:28 * Molly watches him Apr 01 00:56:41 I should remove my make up, my love Apr 01 00:56:50 In a minute Apr 01 00:57:32 * Molly nods Apr 01 00:58:54 * Morgan pulls her back down to the bed, kissing his way down her belly Apr 01 01:01:06 * Molly smiles “I umm... If you’d wanted longer with him, that’s fine... Apr 01 01:01:41 * Morgan makes a quiet nuh uh noise, kissing lower Apr 01 01:02:16 * Molly squirms a little Apr 01 01:02:39 My love... I know you have much on your mind... Apr 01 01:02:54 Right now, I have tasting you on my mind Apr 01 01:03:10 * Molly murmurs “oh fuck...” Apr 01 01:04:17 * Morgan plants his mouth upon her, licking in one, firm slow motion Apr 01 01:05:53 * Molly arches from the bed, making a soft moan of relief “oh god” Apr 01 01:06:20 * Morgan goes to work on her, running his tongue up and around her clit repeatedly Apr 01 01:07:11 * Molly rolls her hips “liebes herz... you are... too good...” Apr 01 01:08:16 * Morgan smiles against her, sucking her into his mouth Apr 01 01:09:03 * Molly gasps at this “I’ve yearned for you all day” Apr 01 01:09:12 * Morgan moans against her Apr 01 01:11:42 * Molly moans at it, lifting her hips to his mouth “I fantasised about you all through dinner, even when I was talking” Apr 01 01:12:09 * Morgan nods, bringing a hand to her, pressing two fingers into her core Apr 01 01:14:58 *This makes her stomach tense, but now with her bump bigger it only highlights her increasing. She moans more intensely, parting her legs wider to make it easier for him Apr 01 01:15:37 * Morgan moans against her, making a come hither motion while redoubling his efforts with his mouth Apr 01 01:16:49 * Molly grinds against him Apr 01 01:17:04 That feels... like... bliss. Apr 01 01:17:19 * Morgan makes a mmhmm noise, continuing his ministrations Apr 01 01:19:16 * Molly quickly gets very close, thrusting against his fingers, sounds of pleasure getting more intense and frequent Apr 01 01:19:26 * Morgan moans again, not stopping Apr 01 01:21:06 That’s... so... close! Apr 01 01:21:28 * Morgan nods a little, licking harder Apr 01 01:25:11 * Molly grabs the braids as she peaks hard “fuck! oh fuck yes!” Apr 01 01:25:35 * Morgan moans against her, sucking her clit back into his mouth and swirling his tongue around it Apr 01 01:27:15 * Molly turns her face into the pillow as she overcome again, muffling the intensity of the noise she makes as her body tenses again Apr 01 01:27:41 * Morgan waits until the peak has passed before slowing then stopping Apr 01 01:28:26 * Molly moans softly “oh wow, that was good!” Apr 01 01:28:39 I'm glad you approve Apr 01 01:29:46 * Molly nods, smiling Apr 01 01:29:51 I do, always Apr 01 01:30:01 * Morgan nods, shifting to lay beside her Apr 01 01:30:51 * Molly smiles, then licks his lower lip with an “mmm” Apr 01 01:31:49 * Morgan smiles Apr 01 01:31:56 You were saying about your makeup... Apr 01 01:32:22 mmmhmm... but are you sure you can spare me now? Apr 01 01:33:02 I got what I wanted Apr 01 01:33:23 Oh? *she smiles* what was that? Apr 01 01:33:42 To taste you Apr 01 01:34:52 * Molly blushes, smiling, and then she kisses him deeply several moments before she murmurs “now so can I” Apr 01 01:35:23 * Morgan smiles, stroking her face for a moment Apr 01 01:35:28 Go on, go get cleaned up Apr 01 01:37:51 * Molly nods, getting out of the bed. The moonlight from the window almost silhouettes her and the modest bump. It’s similar in composition to his sketch of the morning Dietlinde was in labour, despite the difference in time, size of bump, or woman, yet has that same feminine beauty to it that had wowed him the first time Apr 01 01:38:28 * Morgan smiles to himself, watching her Apr 01 01:39:23 * Molly isn’t there long before she’s moved into the bathroom and out of sight Apr 01 01:57:18 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 01 02:42:10 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Apr 01 12:20:23 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Apr 01 12:21:10 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 01 12:22:19 mmmhmm... but are you sure you can spare me now? Apr 01 12:22:19 I got what I wanted Apr 01 12:22:19 Oh? *she smiles* what was that? Apr 01 12:22:19 To taste you Apr 01 12:22:19 * Molly blushes, smiling, and then she kisses him deeply several moments before she murmurs “now so can I” Apr 01 12:22:22 * Morgan smiles, stroking her face for a moment Apr 01 12:22:24 Go on, go get cleaned up Apr 01 12:22:26 * Molly nods, getting out of the bed. The moonlight from the window almost silhouettes her and the modest bump. It’s similar in composition to his sketch of the morning Dietlinde was in labour, despite the difference in time, size of bump, or woman, yet has that same feminine beauty to it that had wowed him the first time Apr 01 12:22:29 * Morgan smiles to himself, watching her Apr 01 12:22:31 * Molly isn’t there long before she’s moved into the bathroom and out of sight Apr 01 12:22:33 * Morgan stretches, getting comfortable Apr 01 12:23:53 * Molly is back a few minutes later, getting into bed and moving close to him Apr 01 12:24:59 * Morgan pulls her to him Apr 01 12:25:03 Thats better Apr 01 12:25:58 * Molly nods, wrapping her arms around him Apr 01 12:26:03 this is all you need? Apr 01 12:26:22 * Morgan nods, sighing contentedly Apr 01 12:26:53 me gently nuzzles him “It has been a very busy night” Apr 01 12:27:20 * Morgan nods Apr 01 12:27:34 That isn't going to change any time soon I think. Did you speak to Diana? Apr 01 12:28:28 Yes, I asked her to be gentler with the staff Apr 01 12:28:41 How did she react? Apr 01 12:32:09 She was contrite Apr 01 12:32:24 * Morgan nods Apr 01 12:34:29 what about the men? are things better between Edward and his friends? Apr 01 12:34:50 significantly. Not quite right yet, but getting there Apr 01 12:36:02 * Molly nods Apr 01 12:36:07 that’s good Apr 01 12:36:37 * Morgan nods Apr 01 12:36:41 Yes, it is Apr 01 12:36:53 *she yawns a little* Hildegarde and I are only six weeks apart in our increasing Apr 01 12:38:06 * Morgan nods Apr 01 12:38:22 It is still somewhat surprising Apr 01 12:38:41 Which bit? Apr 01 12:38:50 We're having a baby Apr 01 12:38:57 * Molly nods Apr 01 12:39:26 Perhaps some of that is that the stress means you aren’t so distracted by the constant thoughts of it? Apr 01 12:39:35 possibly Apr 01 12:39:43 * Morgan smiles a little Apr 01 12:40:12 Edward said if he hears certain noises coming from mother and fathers room, he'll be coming to us... I said that just means he'll hear them twice Apr 01 12:41:22 * Molly blushes, giggling Apr 01 12:41:35 He wouldn’t be the first of our kin to hear me, I suppose Apr 01 12:41:44 no... he wouldn't Apr 01 12:42:04 You were already anticipating though? Apr 01 12:42:29 I wasn't sure Apr 01 12:44:22 For your own sake? You know how amenable I am Apr 01 12:45:03 * Morgan nods Apr 01 12:45:21 I know but... its busy... Apr 01 12:46:41 * Molly nods Apr 01 12:47:29 And stressful, with your Father, and Edward’s conflicts, and not knowing what Heidi might get up to, and Diana being bossy Apr 01 12:48:27 * Morgan nods Apr 01 12:48:36 Bit of guidance, I think she'll be alright Apr 01 12:50:08 * Molly giggles “That’s what he said?” Apr 01 12:50:22 * Morgan chuckles Apr 01 12:50:24 Behave Apr 01 12:51:13 or what, my love? *she snuggles up more though, rather than being particularly defiant* Apr 01 12:52:13 * Morgan yawns Apr 01 12:52:18 Or... I'll have to think of something Apr 01 12:54:03 * Molly nods “Maybe you can dream of something suitably sexy?” Apr 01 12:54:25 One would hope so Apr 01 12:56:05 * Molly nods, kissing his chest “Good night then, my dear and very cute Duke. Apr 01 12:57:10 * Morgan sighs Apr 01 12:57:14 You'll keep Apr 01 12:57:54 Mmhmm, you’ll never be rid of me Apr 01 12:58:09 * Morgan nods, closing his eyes Apr 01 12:58:10 Good Apr 01 13:02:14 *He falls asleep very quickly, and starts to dream a thread started recently, where he has just graduated from the Academy and had met Mina at court, with Adalbrecht and Hans deciding to make a match for him. What had initially been different from reality was that he had a very close friend in the Academy, after four years there equally as close as Heinzharold. He is Grendlik Niedersachsen, an acknowledged by-blow. (MTF) Apr 01 13:05:12 *The bundling had been conducted immediately, and having seen her in just a shift wrapped in his Koertig cloak with her hair down, the prospect of marriage in the winter when they will be only 17 and 15 doesn’t seem as bad. They’d talked about where she’d live (still in Graben), how many children they’d like (as many as Theus gave them), and how he’d spend his leave when he got it (either Sudlachenburg or Graben depending on the proximity) MTF Apr 01 13:10:07 Molly> It had been a nice night, and she’d been so pretty lying close but seperate. Naturally he’d been a complete gentleman, and in the morning it had been made official. Later in the day, his and Grendlik’s posting had arrived, and the day after, having taken the step of kissing her cheek, Apr 01 13:10:27 Morgan had left his betrothed beside and ridden with his friend down to Zweibrucke to get onboard a ship bound for the sea off Montaigne. The long months had passed as he learned more about sailing, and when his first leave saw him in Sudlachenburg in November, he had arrived with news of his first promotion, and Grendlik in tow. MTF Apr 01 13:15:14 Molly> *Disappointingly Heinzharold had been away, and was unlikely to be back for the wedding. So when Morgan had stood at the altar in the chapel at Die Dauerhaftigkeit, it had been Grendlik, not HH with him. Edward was on Prophets Mass break, and seemed to be sulking about something, even when Morgan and Mina’s plate had said they would have seven children. MTF Apr 01 13:15:39 Once the evening ceremony was concluded, he and Mina had been sent up to the Veisgraf’s wing, having barely spent time together since their bundling in the summer MTF Apr 01 13:16:31 *Adalbrecht had come with them to be the Appointed Person, and stops Morgan briefly after Mina has gone into the room* Apr 01 13:16:37 * Molly is now known as Adalbrecht Apr 01 13:16:55 I need to speak to you a moment Apr 01 13:17:01 My lord? Apr 01 13:17:29 * Adalbrecht looks a little uncomfortable “Do you know what you are to do now?” Apr 01 13:17:50 * Morgan blushes Apr 01 13:17:54 ummm... sort of... Apr 01 13:18:13 * Adalbrecht looks around, checking their alone Apr 01 13:18:32 Do you know what part of you goes where? Apr 01 13:18:48 I've, ummm... overheard some of the sailors... Apr 01 13:18:56 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 01 13:20:32 Your ummm... manhood... it should go within her, between her legs... *he looks like he’s trying hard not to show his embarrassment, and to be a confident Father and not let Morgan down* Apr 01 13:21:37 Doesn't seem very... practical... Apr 01 13:21:47 Why not? Apr 01 13:22:21 How would a baby be created behind her knee, for example... Apr 01 13:25:33 No it’s not behind her knee, it’s.... *he looks to see if Morgan is winding him up* Apr 01 13:25:54 * Morgan looks embarrassed but earnest Apr 01 13:27:19 * Adalbrecht parts his index and middle fingers “Imagine these are her legs” He touches the index finger from his other hand between them “It is here” Apr 01 13:27:37 * Morgan frowns Apr 01 13:27:39 Right... Apr 01 13:28:03 That is where you need to go. Be very gentle to her. Apr 01 13:28:24 * Morgan nods Apr 01 13:28:32 Yes my lord Apr 01 13:29:42 * Adalbrecht nods “Alright, good... And you know how you will know it is over?” Apr 01 13:29:55 * Morgan shakes his head Apr 01 13:30:34 *there’s giggling from behind the door in the other bedroom. Adalbrecht looks cross* Apr 01 13:31:47 Edward Jeremias Koertig, you come out here, young man. Apr 01 13:32:45 * Morgan looks toward the door Apr 01 13:33:01 *Edward does come out, a smirking thirteen year old. Adalbrecht catches him by the ear, making Edward wince* Apr 01 13:33:13 Wait here Morgan, I will be back in a minute. Apr 01 13:33:21 Yes my lord Apr 01 13:33:55 * Adalbrecht takes Edward away, lecturing him about eavesdropping on adult conversations Apr 01 13:34:16 * Morgan smiles a little, waiting patiently Apr 01 13:34:32 * Adalbrecht is now known as Yensid Apr 01 13:35:01 * Yensid appears from the gloom in the hall, a seedy looking retainer, also likely eavesdropping Apr 01 13:35:38 * Morgan moves a little closer to the wall Apr 01 13:36:18 I thinkya need more help than he can give, he’s not the most worldly Apr 01 13:36:39 What do you mean? Apr 01 13:36:57 I wouldn’t go to him for advice about sex Apr 01 13:37:14 * Morgan blushes Apr 01 13:37:26 He's married, though Apr 01 13:38:41 An apprentice farrier can shod your horse, doesn’t mean the shoes will last well or the horse will be most comfortable Apr 01 13:39:01 * Morgan frowns a little Apr 01 13:39:20 That makes a certain amount of sense Apr 01 13:40:03 * Yensid nods, pulling out some tatty paper and a pencil. He spits on the back of his hand before rubbing the pencil tip in it Apr 01 13:40:16 You want to do a good job, or a passable job? Apr 01 13:40:44 I -always- want to do a good job Apr 01 13:41:07 * Yensid nods, starting to draw. He’s not much of an artist Apr 01 13:41:33 these bits are her legs as if she’s on her back and you’re looking up between them, right Apr 01 13:41:45 * Morgan blushes furiously Apr 01 13:43:33 * Yensid draws a shape almost like an oval with points at the top and bottom, then wavy lines on each side on the interior of the shape Apr 01 13:43:55 These bits can be different sizes and shapes, all good and normal. Apr 01 13:44:22 okay... Apr 01 13:44:46 * Yensid draws a small circle near the top Apr 01 13:45:41 This bits like a button for pleasure, sensitive like the tip of your dick. Be gentle with it, but don’t forget it unless she asks you to leave it alone Apr 01 13:46:10 * Morgan manages to blush even harder Apr 01 13:47:53 * Yensid ignores his blushing, drawing a narrow oval further down “This is where your dick goes. It’s probably going to be tight as hell, go slow, make sure she’s pleasured first. There’ll be blood after, but only the first time.” Apr 01 13:48:32 right... will it hurt? Apr 01 13:49:10 Her yes, you maybe a little if you’re big and she’s small Apr 01 13:49:51 I see Apr 01 13:52:27 Make sure you kiss her mouth, neck, breasts, and down here before you even think about it, and she’ll have a much better time when it’s time for that. Then take your time to go slowly. Give a good accounting of yourself the first time, and she’ll be keen for more Apr 01 13:53:11 I...okay Apr 01 13:53:24 Got any questions? Now’s the time for them Apr 01 13:54:15 ummm... two...just kiss them? Apr 01 13:54:36 breasts? Apr 01 13:54:49 And... *he points at the paper* Apr 01 13:55:32 Start with that, if she likes it, lick, suck, whatever she enjoys Apr 01 13:55:45 How will I know? Apr 01 13:56:25 Moves towards it rather than pulls away, nods, pulls you closer, makes noises that sound like enjoyment Apr 01 13:56:57 * Morgan nods Apr 01 13:56:58 okay Apr 01 13:57:11 Next question? Apr 01 13:57:21 How will I know when its... finished... Apr 01 13:57:55 Make her orgasm before you swive her, then when you’ve cum you’re done Apr 01 13:58:17 Uhhhh... what? Apr 01 13:59:17 you’ve never bashed your bishop? Apr 01 13:59:38 Why would I hit a clergyman? Apr 01 13:59:45 * Yensid chuckles Apr 01 14:00:23 You’ve never stroked your dick until it feels great and you get a release of fluid? Apr 01 14:00:44 What? No! Apr 01 14:00:52 * Yensid sighs Apr 01 14:01:27 Right. That’ll happen when you have sex. Then you’ll lose your erection and want a rest Apr 01 14:02:23 right... okay... Apr 01 14:02:38 You want to get her knocked up? Apr 01 14:03:00 Thats the point isn't it Apr 01 14:03:38 * Yensid smiles “In the morning, you’ll think different about it. No need to pull out then” Apr 01 14:03:50 * Morgan nods Apr 01 14:03:51 okay Apr 01 14:04:13 * Yensid nods, looking at the paper “You got it now?” Apr 01 14:04:54 * Morgan nods slowly Apr 01 14:04:56 I think so Apr 01 14:05:21 * Yensid nods “Good luck” he puts the paper back in his pocket Apr 01 14:05:44 * Morgan nods Apr 01 14:05:48 I'm supposed to wait for my father Apr 01 14:06:11 * Yensid nods “best had. Night.” Apr 01 14:06:46 * Morgan nods Apr 01 14:11:38 * Yensid slinks off, and Morgan is alone Apr 01 14:12:17 * Morgan waits quietly Apr 01 14:13:36 * Yensid is now known as Adalbrecht Apr 01 14:13:45 * Adalbrecht returns with a dagger Apr 01 14:14:12 he won’t be up here being nosey again Apr 01 14:14:23 * Morgan looks at the dagger then back to his father Apr 01 14:14:25 Bit extreme... Apr 01 14:14:33 * Adalbrecht chuckles Apr 01 14:14:44 No, this is for removing the dress Apr 01 14:16:21 Oh, the Graben thing Apr 01 14:18:20 Yes, Morgan Apr 01 14:19:03 * Morgan nods Apr 01 14:19:34 Are you ready? Apr 01 14:19:45 * Morgan nods Apr 01 14:19:46 Yes my lord Apr 01 14:20:12 * Adalbrecht gestures for Morgan to go into the main bedroom where his bride is waiting Apr 01 14:21:43 * Morgan nods, knocking quietly before going into the room Apr 01 14:21:59 *Mina is waiting, she looks nervous Apr 01 14:24:11 * Morgan smiles at her, moving closer Apr 01 14:26:55 *Mina smiles too, and Adalbrecht hands him the knife* Alright Morgan, get it done and I will tell the party that it’s complete Apr 01 14:27:30 * Morgan nods, testing the knifes edge before looking to Mina Apr 01 14:27:33 I won't hurt you Apr 01 14:27:44 *Mina nods, smiling* I trust you Apr 01 14:28:17 * Morgan nods, moving closer and very carefully cutting the front of her dress Apr 01 14:29:07 *mina is careful to hold it closed at the bust and then the apex of her things, but not before Morgan up close gets a brief view of the dark blonde curly hair there Apr 01 14:30:59 * Morgan looks to his father Apr 01 14:32:40 * Adalbrecht nods, blushing a little “Good night then” Apr 01 14:33:32 M: Good night, my Lord. Please let my Father know I am well Apr 01 14:33:51 * Adalbrecht nods, inclining his head to them both Apr 01 14:34:57 Goodnight father Apr 01 14:35:57 * Adalbrecht leaves them alone Apr 01 14:36:01 * Adalbrecht is now known as Mina Apr 01 14:36:39 * Mina still holds the dress, but looks to Morgan Apr 01 14:37:06 No one should disturb us until the morning unless we ring for them Apr 01 14:37:23 * Morgan nods Apr 01 14:37:26 You are nervous Apr 01 14:37:32 * Mina nods Apr 01 14:37:36 Aren’t you? Apr 01 14:37:42 * Morgan smiles Apr 01 14:37:46 Trying very hard not to show it Apr 01 14:37:52 * Mina nods Apr 01 14:38:08 I’ve got a scar I have to show you. It’s ugly. Apr 01 14:38:28 Alright... Apr 01 14:40:02 * Mina moves the dress so the right side covers both breasts, but her left flank is revealed. The scarring is deep and red, it looks like animal bites Apr 01 14:40:20 * Morgan takes a step closer Apr 01 14:40:25 What on Theah? Apr 01 14:40:38 * Mina says nothing Apr 01 14:41:02 * Morgan crouches, looking up at her Apr 01 14:41:05 May I? Apr 01 14:41:11 * Mina nods Apr 01 14:41:37 * Morgan gently puts his fingers to it, tracing it briefly before kissing his fingers and placing them back on the scar Apr 01 14:41:54 * Mina looks surprised Apr 01 14:42:27 It doesn’t disgust you? Apr 01 14:42:47 It is a part of you... how could it ever disgust me? Apr 01 14:43:01 * Mina nods Apr 01 14:43:19 I need to tell you how I got it, but you will hate it Apr 01 14:43:33 Alright... Apr 01 14:43:40 I was bitten Apr 01 14:43:52 * Morgan nods Apr 01 14:43:56 I sort of gathered that Apr 01 14:44:37 it was by a werewolf. Apr 01 14:44:57 * Morgan stands up Apr 01 14:45:07 okay Apr 01 14:45:23 okay?! Apr 01 14:45:45 You were expecting... disbelief? Horror? Apr 01 14:45:53 * Mina nods Apr 01 14:47:09 Isn't there some rule that if you're bitten by one, you become one? Apr 01 14:47:34 No, you have to be born that way Apr 01 14:48:10 Thats a specific bit of knowledge Apr 01 14:48:16 * Mina nods Apr 01 14:48:21 My cousin... Apr 01 14:50:35 That is awful... I'm sorry Apr 01 14:52:28 It was a few years ago, but scarring leaves me self-conscious, and no one has seen it since it healed, not even my maids Apr 01 14:52:53 * Morgan nods Apr 01 14:52:59 It has taken great courage to show me Apr 01 14:54:52 It’s the tradition to have the dress cut off, there’s no option to hide it Apr 01 14:55:11 Even so... you could've said an accident or... anything really Apr 01 14:58:37 I do not want a marriage where there are lies Apr 01 14:58:52 * Morgan nods Apr 01 14:59:03 Then... I will share a secret with you too Apr 01 14:59:39 * Mina nods Apr 01 14:59:47 yes, I’d like that Apr 01 15:00:20 When I was a bit younger... I saw the Schattenmann Apr 01 15:00:41 * Mina looks almost relieved by this Apr 01 15:00:49 Was it terrifying? Apr 01 15:01:38 * Morgan nods Apr 01 15:01:40 Completely Apr 01 15:03:24 * Mina nods “One doesn’t expect the supernatural to be parts of their life” Apr 01 15:03:58 * Morgan smiles a little Apr 01 15:04:21 Ironic, given the tremendous number of myths and superstitions we have Apr 01 15:06:31 * Mina nods “One of my ancestors saw a drachen, another Schneeskald” Apr 01 15:07:05 * Morgan nods Apr 01 15:07:21 Little flying things? Apr 01 15:08:57 * Mina nods “They used to be a problem in Graben, but they do not like raw iron from the mountains, and someone added lumps of it in the ground in a ring around my home Apr 01 15:09:51 I'm sorry, a supernatural fence? Apr 01 15:09:59 * Mina nods Apr 01 15:10:14 You can’t see it now, but it’s there Apr 01 15:10:39 * Morgan nods Apr 01 15:10:57 Yet everyone pretends like none of this is real... while taking actions to ward it off Apr 01 15:11:51 * Mina nods Apr 01 15:12:34 Maybe superstitions are there to carry on necessary protections from things that we needed protecting from in the past Apr 01 15:13:56 * Morgan nods Apr 01 15:14:01 Bit of a scary thought, that Apr 01 15:15:24 * Mina nods, watching him Apr 01 15:15:31 it’s a little cold Apr 01 15:15:56 Perhaps we should get under the blankets... Apr 01 15:16:54 * Mina nods. She continues to watch him as she takes off the cut dress. The scar is the only thing about her that doesn’t look perfect Apr 01 15:18:01 * Morgan blushes, speaking quietly Apr 01 15:18:05 I think you're perfect Apr 01 15:19:03 * Mina smiles “Thank you” Apr 01 15:20:00 * Morgan nods a little, pulling back the blankets for her before looking to realise that he needs to undress Apr 01 15:20:24 * Mina gets into the bed Apr 01 15:21:52 I, uhh... best undress... Apr 01 15:22:30 * Mina nods Apr 01 15:22:52 I’d like that Apr 01 15:23:11 * Morgan blushes again, taking his jacket and shirt off Apr 01 15:24:14 * Mina watches him, smiling Apr 01 15:24:51 I’ve been wondering what it would be like to see you undressed Apr 01 15:24:57 * Morgan moves on to boots Apr 01 15:24:59 Oh? Apr 01 15:25:27 I’ve never seen a man undressed except in sculpture or paintings Apr 01 15:25:57 * Morgan smiles Apr 01 15:26:00 Me either Apr 01 15:26:58 * Morgan takes a breath, removing his trousers Apr 01 15:27:30 * Mina watches this. Her brows raise Apr 01 15:27:49 Is... is something wrong? Apr 01 15:28:15 No, I just wondered when Michaelangelo made his David so small... Apr 01 15:28:26 why* Apr 01 15:28:59 * Morgan looks confused for a moment before blushing Apr 01 15:29:10 Oh! I... I haven't seen that Apr 01 15:29:39 * Mina smiles “I’ve seen paintings of it” Apr 01 15:30:04 * Morgan lifts the blankets, climbing in beside her gingerly Apr 01 15:30:17 perhaps... one day we can go to see it... Apr 01 15:32:39 It’s in Numa Apr 01 15:32:57 * Morgan smiles a little Apr 01 15:33:00 That cant be helped Apr 01 15:33:19 * Mina smiles, turning on her side to look at him Apr 01 15:33:24 Now what do we do? Apr 01 15:33:41 well... I was thinking I would very much like to kiss you... Apr 01 15:36:58 * Mina nods, gently kissing him first Apr 01 15:38:09 * Morgan gently puts. A hand to her face Apr 01 15:40:22 * Mina moves closer to him, and he can feel her breasts against his chest. There’s the crackle of the fire for company, as well as a cold winter wind outside, a smattering of hail against the window. Where the curtains aren’t quite closed there’s a little glowing of blue from the Sudlache Apr 01 15:41:31 * Morgan moves a little, stroking his arm gently down her arm, keeping his lips pressed to hers Apr 01 15:44:59 * Mina does likewise on his back, seeming to follow his lead without any question or doubt, as if he is the Captain and she is crew. He feels a hint of deja vu but can’t place it Apr 01 15:45:43 * Morgan places his hand to her back Apr 01 15:45:54 I... I would like to explore you... may I? Apr 01 15:46:40 * Mina nods “Yes, you are my husband now” Apr 01 15:47:12 * Morgan nods, shifting a little to kiss gently along her jaw and down onto her neck Apr 01 15:48:06 * Mina seems to enjoy this. As Yensid said, he can quickly discern what she most likes by the quiet sounds she makes Apr 01 15:48:50 * Morgan does this for a couple of minutes before moving onto her clavicle, his hand gently grazing her breast Apr 01 15:50:12 * Mina turns so that her breast is to his hand, and she strokes his upper back. For all his distaste at Yensid, he can’t help but feel gratitude now Apr 01 15:51:48 * Morgan gently runs his thumb over her nipple as his mouth works down the centreline from her clavicle Apr 01 15:53:18 * Mina ‘s moan of enjoyment at that seems to take her by surprise Apr 01 15:53:39 * Morgan keeps his lips against her skin as he speaks quietly Apr 01 15:53:42 Are you alright? Apr 01 15:53:51 I’m sorry, I don’t know what came over me Apr 01 15:54:05 It was enjoyable? Apr 01 15:54:25 it was very nice Apr 01 15:54:41 Then you've nothing to apologise for... I very much enjoyed your reaction Apr 01 15:56:13 * Mina nods, still stroking the skin on his back. For a moment he feels a little apprehension when she touches the area, but like the deja vu he still can’t make sense of why, and it soon passes Apr 01 15:56:58 * Morgan frowns briefly before rubbing his thumb over her nipple ones move, his mouth moving to the upper mound of her breast Apr 01 16:01:06 * Mina again seems to follow his lead by not withholding the sounds. She seems to be deriving a great deal of pleasure from his actions Apr 01 16:01:45 * Morgan smiles a little, moving once more and placing his lips gently around her nipple Apr 01 16:02:33 * Mina pulls him closer, as Yensid predicted, and the sounds become more frequent Apr 01 16:03:13 * Morgan tentatively places his tongue against it, running it across the nub of her nipple Apr 01 16:04:23 * Mina fidgets a little, again not moving away from it “that feels good” Apr 01 16:04:37 More? Apr 01 16:05:09 Yes, I’d like that, thank you Apr 01 16:05:28 * Morgan nods a little, doing it again then running his tongue around her nipple before sucking it gently Apr 01 16:06:09 * Mina makes a deeper, louder noise of pleasure. The whole wing should be deserted though, so it’s not a problem Apr 01 16:06:39 * Morgan keeps doing it, a little more firmly, then softer again Apr 01 16:07:32 *it takes very little time of this before she tenses against him with a very intense moan* Apr 01 16:08:41 * Morgan takes this as a good sign and carries on until she relaxes a little Apr 01 16:08:44 Are you alright? Apr 01 16:08:54 * Mina nods, smiling Apr 01 16:09:11 I am, but I’ve never encountered pleasure like it Apr 01 16:09:23 * Morgan smiles Apr 01 16:09:31 I'm very pleased to hear that Apr 01 16:10:24 * Mina nods. She asks for, and suggests, nothing. She waits to follow his lead Apr 01 16:10:48 * Morgan goes back to what he was doing but on the side of her chest Apr 01 16:13:27 * Mina seems to enjoy this even more, and peaks again. Now that he knows what response he’s trying to get, it all makes more sense Apr 01 16:14:09 * Morgan moves on, trailing gently kisses down to her naval while keeping one thumb rubbing across her nipple Apr 01 16:15:49 *He suddenly wakes up as if disturbed by something. He’s behind Molly, a hand on one breast* Apr 01 16:16:06 * Morgan frowns, checking the time Apr 01 16:16:18 *it’s only half after one* Apr 01 16:16:29 * Morgan listens intently Apr 01 16:17:18 *he cant’ hear anything but Molly stirs. He notices that she feels quite full Apr 01 16:17:45 * Morgan gently lets go Apr 01 16:18:32 *He hears very quiet footsteps in the hall, which seems to wake Molly too* Apr 01 16:18:37 * Mina is now known as Molly Apr 01 16:19:05 * Molly shifts a little, leaning up on one elbow Apr 01 16:19:16 * Morgan sits up, listening Apr 01 16:19:59 *from outside, a baby cries. Molly draws a sharp breath, and then exhales slowly Apr 01 16:20:25 Matthias has been waking at night Apr 01 16:20:38 uh huh... yes... Apr 01 16:20:58 * Morgan smiles a little Apr 01 16:21:00 Need a bowl? Apr 01 16:21:52 * Molly blows out a breath “I’ll get up and deal with it, before we have to change the bedding” Apr 01 16:22:11 * Morgan nods Apr 01 16:22:14 Probably wise Apr 01 16:23:22 * Molly smiles, gently kissing his cheek “I’ll be back soon, with a purer imagination!” Apr 01 16:23:40 * Morgan chuckles Apr 01 16:23:43 Alright my love Apr 01 16:23:58 * Molly goes into the bathroom Apr 01 16:24:24 * Morgan stretches out, frowning Apr 01 16:24:39 *the crying continues* Apr 01 16:25:10 * Morgan climbs out of bed, pulling his trousers and a shirt on Apr 01 16:26:05 *The sound is getting quieter, but from moving away from the door. He hears Molly make a soft “mmm” sound Apr 01 16:26:20 [I'm just going to check on Grendlik Apr 01 16:26:51 [yes, alright liebling. I have milk if he wants it] Apr 01 16:27:05 * Morgan pads out of the room into the hallway Apr 01 16:27:14 * Molly is now known as Grendlik Apr 01 16:27:41 * Grendlik is heading down the hall barefoot, in a shirt and breeches Apr 01 16:27:57 He's grumbling, huh? Apr 01 16:29:53 * Grendlik nods “sorry to wake you, I’ll take him downstairs” Apr 01 16:30:06 Its fine... do you have milk? Apr 01 16:30:30 He’s already had some *the baby continues to grizzle* Apr 01 16:31:16 Do you want me to take him for a bit so you can get some sleep? Apr 01 16:32:55 * Grendlik shakes his head Apr 01 16:33:16 No, it’s part of being a Father Apr 01 16:34:28 So is taking the help when you need it Apr 01 16:35:48 * Grendlik smiles, rocking the baby Apr 01 16:36:08 Adalbrecht despairs of what he calls my over-protectiveness Apr 01 16:36:28 He has some very particular ideas Apr 01 16:36:57 Fatherhood is a calling to me, not just a pastime Apr 01 16:37:08 * Morgan nods, smiling Apr 01 16:37:15 Anyone with eyes can see that Apr 01 16:37:25 * Grendlik smiles Apr 01 16:37:35 Thank you Apr 01 16:38:14 How is Edward finding it? Apr 01 16:38:33 Complicated, but god does he love that little girl Apr 01 16:38:40 * Grendlik nods Apr 01 16:38:58 I look forward to meeting both her and your second son Apr 01 16:39:12 * Morgan nods Apr 01 16:39:30 You'll meet Emil tomorrow... he's such a relaxed little boy, but he absolutely plays Molly Apr 01 16:39:38 why? Apr 01 16:40:04 He's perfectly content with me, until she comes into the room then he cries like he's been absolutely distraught the whole time Apr 01 16:40:20 * Grendlik smiles Apr 01 16:40:40 He sounds well-attached Apr 01 16:41:19 * Morgan nods Apr 01 16:41:22 He is, very much so Apr 01 16:42:15 * Grendlik nods Apr 01 16:43:05 Has Adalbrecht met them yet? Apr 01 16:44:51 No, not yet... Florrie will be difficult for him Apr 01 16:45:53 * Grendlik nods, the baby starting to settle a little Apr 01 16:46:01 There’s a lot of history there Apr 01 16:46:07 * Morgan nods Apr 01 16:46:15 It'll be tough Apr 01 16:46:48 But then he’s very attached to Mattias now despite giving me a rough time for a few weeks Apr 01 16:47:42 He was annoyed he was not involved in the arrangements... there was a lot of shouting Apr 01 16:48:58 He was already annoyed that I had dishonoured his niece and disrespected him as head of the family. Personally offended at the fact I was intimate with a woman I wasn’t wed to as well, I think Apr 01 16:49:34 * Morgan nods Apr 01 16:49:38 Spot on Apr 01 16:50:03 Has Edward tried making an apology to him? Apr 01 16:50:38 They're a bit... odd in their relationship Apr 01 16:52:39 * Grendlik nods Apr 01 16:53:07 They say the father-son relationship is often fraught with competing egos Apr 01 16:53:29 * Morgan nods Apr 01 16:53:38 That sounds fairly accurate, actually Apr 01 16:54:11 I don’t have experience to draw upon Apr 01 16:54:35 * Morgan nod Apr 01 16:54:41 You're clearly wise Apr 01 16:55:25 Thank you Apr 01 16:55:40 *the baby seems to have quieted* Apr 01 16:56:06 * Morgan smiles, looking at the baby Apr 01 16:56:18 Of course, now it'll be forty minutes before you can put him down Apr 01 16:57:50 * Grendlik nods, smiling Apr 01 16:58:09 It will indeed Apr 01 16:59:15 * Morgan nods Apr 01 16:59:19 Alright my friend Apr 01 17:00:35 * Grendlik nods “Good night, Morgan” Apr 01 17:00:58 * Morgan inclines his head, going back to his room Apr 01 17:01:06 * Grendlik is now known as Molly Apr 01 17:01:16 * Molly is still not back in bed Apr 01 17:01:42 [are you alright?] Apr 01 17:02:38 [yes... just trying to get enough off. Having the small babies around is making it worse I think] Apr 01 17:03:21 [it definitely seems so] Apr 01 17:03:52 [you can go back to sleep if you wish, my love] Apr 01 17:04:22 [alright my love. Theus knows I'll be awake early] Apr 01 17:04:40 [yes you will] Apr 01 17:05:01 * Morgan gets into bed, trying to get comfortable again Apr 01 17:08:55 *he manages to get back to sleep. He can’t have been asleep long before her, because he finds himself in the yellow tones of her dream. He’s in a bedroom, the light showing it’s early morning. She’s there, and so is Seb. He’s just in breeches, her just in a shift. They’re as old as in these threads usually. He catches her arm, pulling her to him. Neither of them look happy. He kisses her roughly Apr 01 17:09:23 * Morgan scowls Apr 01 17:10:50 * Molly seems to tolerate it a moment before making an “uh!” noise. “Oww, too rough, Seb!” Apr 01 17:11:56 *He only kisses her harder, holding her possessively. She pushes away from his chest before slapping him hard* Apr 01 17:12:46 * Morgan mutters under his breath Apr 01 17:13:27 Seb rubs his jaw: I forget, it’s only acceptable to be that rough for your other husband. Apr 01 17:15:04 * Molly frowns deeply, moving away “I’ve told you a million times! I don’t choose to dream of him! You, however, chose to flirt with and fawn over that awful woman in front of everyone last night!” Apr 01 17:18:02 S: And I share my bed with a wife who is only with me because the man she wants to be with is dead. Why shouldn’t I flirt a little when my wife dreams of swiving someone else most nights?! *He grabs a shirt* Apr 01 17:18:35 * Morgan scowls harder, looking around Apr 01 17:19:10 *There’s paintings of the children on the walls, including Madchen Apr 01 17:19:52 * Morgan sighs, muttering before looking back to Molly and Seb Apr 01 17:20:17 I never asked to dream of him! I don’t control any of what happens! I don’t even want to do most of the things in the dreams! Apr 01 17:21:04 *he looks angry, moving to her again* No, I realise some things you would have done for him that you’d never do for me... Apr 01 17:22:35 * Molly stands her ground “That version of me is not who I really am, Seb. I’m not like that” Apr 01 17:26:01 *He looks at her “You are not like that, with me. I don’t get to have you in an Eisenfursts stable, or at the road side against a tree...” He grabs her, pulling her to him with a hand on her backside “Or here.” Apr 01 17:27:12 * Molly watches him back “Let. Me. Go, Sebastian. Now.” Apr 01 17:27:56 * Morgan frowns, feeling utterly useless Apr 01 17:29:06 *Seb scowls* Maybe I’ll show you how it feels... see how amenable Hannalore is to more than a little flirtation... Apr 01 17:31:02 * Molly ‘s eyes narrow “Alright. Do that. But I don’t lay with men who fuck other women, and our marriage will be over.” Apr 01 17:31:17 *From outside he hears Madchen say “Vati?” Apr 01 17:31:48 * Morgan turns suddenly Apr 01 17:33:39 *Seb seems perplexed by it, not apologising or yelling, but seemingly more possessive. A hand grabbing her braid, he kneads roughly at her bottom as he kisses her again* Apr 01 17:33:50 Madchen: Vati you in there? Apr 01 17:34:51 * Morgan moves toward the door, trying to pick up anything on the way Apr 01 17:36:15 S: You are mine, not his, do you understand? I will make sure you do. I don’t want to lose you. Apr 01 17:37:11 Madchen: Mae not get in! Apr 01 17:37:41 * Morgan looks at Sea and Molly briefly to see if they've even heard Madchen Apr 01 17:38:57 *They definitely haven’t. Seb is busy kissing and groping her roughly, she still seems to be tolerating it rather than wanting it* Apr 01 17:39:19 * Morgan scowls, looking at the door before shuddering and trying to push his way through it Apr 01 17:39:40 *He finds himself in the hall easily. Madchen is smiling Apr 01 17:39:44 * Molly is now known as Madchen Apr 01 17:39:50 Hi Vati Apr 01 17:39:59 * Morgan kneels down Apr 01 17:40:08 Little lady... I've missed you Apr 01 17:40:44 *she hugs him. As always, she smells of snow and fir trees* Missed Pa. Find Stag? Apr 01 17:40:50 * Morgan nods Apr 01 17:40:57 Yes, I did... it was quite the surprise Apr 01 17:41:04 * Madchen smiles Apr 01 17:41:10 Surprise Autumn Apr 01 17:41:39 * Morgan nods Apr 01 17:41:48 Oh yes, very much. Apr 01 17:41:57 Happy? Apr 01 17:42:28 So so much Apr 01 17:43:06 * Madchen smiles Apr 01 17:43:30 Have baby, be happy Apr 01 17:43:43 * Morgan nods Apr 01 17:43:53 We are very happy... mama's dream isn't very happy... Apr 01 17:44:11 Ma sad. Apr 01 17:44:22 * Morgan nods Apr 01 17:44:24 Can we help her? Apr 01 17:44:59 Wake up? See Jana? Apr 01 17:45:37 If we wake up, I don't gt to see you... will she feel better if we see Jana? Apr 01 17:46:02 No. Be sad. Ma Seb sad now Apr 01 17:46:39 Thats sad... I don't want her to be sad Apr 01 17:47:13 * Madchen nods Apr 01 17:47:42 Poor Ma and Seb Apr 01 17:48:00 * Morgan nods, sighing Apr 01 17:48:10 There's no dream she's happy in? Apr 01 17:49:59 Sometimes. Argue about Vati. Apr 01 17:50:25 * Morgan nods slowly Apr 01 17:50:40 *He sees movement from the corner of his eye* Apr 01 17:50:45 * Morgan looks Apr 01 17:51:13 *Hannalore is fully dressed, but moving quietly towards the bedroom door* Apr 01 17:51:27 Oh, no no no Apr 01 17:52:04 * Madchen looks “Uh oh.” Apr 01 17:52:17 Can we do anything about it? Apr 01 17:52:40 * Madchen shakes her head “wake up?” Apr 01 17:52:50 * Morgan frowns Apr 01 17:52:59 So to see you, mama has to be sad? Apr 01 17:53:12 *Hannalore gets to the bedroom door* Apr 01 17:53:28 Happy before. Now Ma Seb fall out Apr 01 17:54:26 * Morgan frowns Apr 01 17:55:58 *Hannalore listens at the door a moment before going to the other side of the hall and purposely knocking over a vase so it smashes* Apr 01 17:56:11 * Morgan scowls at her Apr 01 17:56:16 Oh you wicked little witch Apr 01 17:57:46 *She naturally doesn’t notice him. The door opens a few moments later. Seb steps out, closing it behind him. He’s still shirtless, so there’s no missing the straining breeches. Apr 01 17:58:27 * Madchen is busy watching up at everyone’s faces Apr 01 17:58:47 Alright, little lady, lets go see Jana, see if its any happier Apr 01 17:59:27 Sseb: *he whispers* What are you doing?! I said we’d talk about last night later! Apr 01 18:00:01 * Madchen takes Morgan’s hand, leading him away Apr 01 18:00:27 * Morgan looks back as he's led away Apr 01 18:01:45 *Hannalore strokes his chest, watching him with a smile “I was awake early, we could take a private walk...” Apr 01 18:02:27 *Seb looks decidedly torn* Apr 01 18:02:49 It wouldn't have worked out well for them would it? Apr 01 18:03:03 Sometimes. Not this time. Apr 01 18:04:37 *He faintly hears Seb say* Last night was a mistake that we will not speak of again. Apr 01 18:04:56 Hannalore cant be trusted, can she? Apr 01 18:05:24 Sometimes. Makes people happy and sad. Apr 01 18:05:39 * Morgan nods Apr 01 18:05:43 Ive noticed that Apr 01 18:05:55 Ma not like her Apr 01 18:06:02 No... she never has Apr 01 18:07:00 Ma dream Hann takes Seb or Vati. Ma head forget, but Ma heart remembers Apr 01 18:08:31 * Morgan nods Apr 01 18:08:53 Why do you smell of pine trees? Apr 01 18:09:03 Play in trees Apr 01 18:09:28 * Morgan nods Apr 01 18:09:32 I've missed you very much Apr 01 18:09:48 * Madchen nods Apr 01 18:09:53 Missed Vati Apr 01 18:10:04 *they get to Jana’s room* Apr 01 18:10:55 * Morgan takes a deep breath Apr 01 18:11:53 Go in? Apr 01 18:12:31 yes... yes okay Apr 01 18:13:42 * Madchen takes him in. Jana is sat nursing Sonnenshien, now a toddler. Tomas has a letter, and he’s pacing Apr 01 18:14:01 T: I have to tell them, Schatzi. Apr 01 18:14:16 * Morgan watches them Apr 01 18:14:21 That doesn't sound good Apr 01 18:14:38 *Jana nods* I know, but I worry they’re in such a bad place right now Apr 01 18:15:42 T: *he nods* I think they’re falling apart, but this is bigger than them. Bigger than the rest of us too. Apr 01 18:16:49 J: Can I read it? *He nods, concentrating. The paper moves from his hand across the room to hers* Apr 01 18:17:21 * Morgan looks down at Madchen Apr 01 18:17:25 Now I'm a little jealous Apr 01 18:17:39 *Madchen smiles* Do magic? Apr 01 18:17:57 I'd have liked to be able to do what he just did. Apr 01 18:18:07 Maybe one day Apr 01 18:18:42 * Morgan smiles Apr 01 18:18:49 That'd be -awesome- Apr 01 18:18:58 J: This is the only one so far though Apr 01 18:19:49 T: Other reports will follow. That was the prediction. The non-national magics will fail. Apr 01 18:20:06 * Morgan sighs Apr 01 18:20:09 Its starting Apr 01 18:20:21 Start here. Apr 01 18:20:44 Sooner than I thought Apr 01 18:20:48 *Jana nods* I thought everyone would be older Apr 01 18:21:22 Sometimes now, sometimes longer. Apr 01 18:21:50 * Morgan nods Apr 01 18:22:32 *With Jana born in 66, and mid twenties now, that would be 1690 ish, 19 years from his waking time* Apr 01 18:23:07 * Morgan rubs Madchens hand Apr 01 18:24:21 T: We hoped. But it’s only the first sign. I need to go to Posen and speak to the Eisenfurstin. Apr 01 18:24:35 How... did they arrange to get the reports? Apr 01 18:25:16 Want her see you? Apr 01 18:25:26 I think that might be useful Apr 01 18:25:44 *Jana does look in his direct then, and smiles* Apr 01 18:25:54 J: My Vati is here Apr 01 18:26:23 T: For the love of all that is holy, do not let my Father know he has been here again Apr 01 18:27:28 $He's not wrong. It won't help. Nor does having that woman here$ Apr 01 18:28:08 J: $hannalore?$ Apr 01 18:28:13 $Yes$ Apr 01 18:28:39 T: Should I take Father with me, Schatzi? what do you think? Apr 01 18:28:50 J: $I don’t like her.$ Apr 01 18:29:11 $No, nor do I$ Apr 01 18:29:43 J: Yes, take him. Don’t take that Hannalore woman. I’ll get rid of her. Apr 01 18:30:06 * Morgan smiles a little Apr 01 18:30:16 $I need to know how and why you get the reports$ Apr 01 18:30:46 *He nods, kissing her a moment. She says to him “Tomas! My Vati can see you!” Apr 01 18:31:14 $Cant quite slap him though...$ Apr 01 18:31:26 *Tomas looks around the room, but sees nothing* Sorry, Lord Koertig. Apr 01 18:31:59 *Jana giggles, handing her husband the letter and sending him out* Apr 01 18:32:20 * Madchen stands quietly beside Morgan Apr 01 18:32:23 * Madchen is now known as Jana Apr 01 18:33:11 * Jana watches him go. He’s never had the chance to speak to her without other adults around Apr 01 18:33:35 $How are you?$ Apr 01 18:33:56 * Jana speaks quietly rather than gesturing Apr 01 18:34:26 Worried about Tomas’ parents, and the coming trouble Apr 01 18:34:46 $Thats understandable little one$ Apr 01 18:35:45 I haven’t seen you since Persephone’s christening Apr 01 18:36:28 $I don't have any say in when I can see you$ Apr 01 18:36:53 Where are you when you aren’t here? Are you in heaven? Apr 01 18:37:15 * Morgan scratches his chin Apr 01 18:37:57 $Tough to say... I sort of... see how things could have been if not this way...$ Apr 01 18:38:29 * Jana nods Apr 01 18:38:50 The girl is your child with my mother-in-law, you said before Apr 01 18:39:05 * Morgan nods Apr 01 18:39:10 $Confusing isn't it$ Apr 01 18:39:53 * Jana nods Apr 01 18:40:26 I don’t tell them that. They are always tense when you’re mentioned now Apr 01 18:41:55 $Probably for the best$ Apr 01 18:42:41 The reports come from a secret society Apr 01 18:43:21 $The Order? What do they know?$ Apr 01 18:43:53 That trouble is coming and the first sign will be people losing magic Apr 01 18:44:12 $Just trouble?$ Apr 01 18:44:47 They know the world might be in danger, but not how or why Apr 01 18:45:03 $And they accepted that?$ Apr 01 18:45:34 It came through Eisenfurstin Posen from the Nieblungen Apr 01 18:46:04 $The Nieblungen willingly contacted them?$ Apr 01 18:46:35 She’s more involved with them than anyone knew. They guided her towards starting the Order Apr 01 18:46:53 $sneaky$ Apr 01 18:47:00 * Jana nods Apr 01 18:48:01 Duke Anhalt was involved too at the beginning, and he’s Molly and Sebastian’s Godfather Apr 01 18:48:36 * Morgan nods, squeezing Madchens hand Apr 01 18:48:49 *Madchen squeezes back* Apr 01 18:49:00 $but he's not involved anymore... has he passed?$ Apr 01 18:49:26 About two years ago now Apr 01 18:50:00 * Morgan nods Apr 01 18:50:03 $I see$ Apr 01 18:50:43 Do you want to see her? Apr 01 18:51:01 $What man wouldn't want to see his granddaughter?$ Apr 01 18:51:54 * Jana smiles, shifting over so there’s space beside her on the bed, and sits her up a little Apr 01 18:52:23 * Morgan picks Madchen up before moving to look Apr 01 18:53:00 *The baby is a combination of him, Dietlinde, Molly, and Seb, still blonde* Apr 01 18:53:40 *She looks right at Morgan, already established that she can see him like Jana can* Apr 01 18:54:53 $She's a pretty little lady$ Apr 01 18:55:01 * Jana nods Apr 01 18:55:14 She’s like Muti Apr 01 18:55:59 * Morgan nods Apr 01 18:56:04 $How is your mother?$ Apr 01 18:59:33 She’s fine and happy, Papa is building a forge at their cottage now Apr 01 18:59:57 * Morgan nods Apr 01 19:00:02 $I'm surprised it took this long$ Apr 01 19:01:00 He felt like he shouldn’t until Oma Emmilene had passed Apr 01 19:01:17 * Morgan nods sadly Apr 01 19:01:22 $I see$ Apr 01 19:01:46 She’s with her husband now Apr 01 19:02:06 * Morgan nods Apr 01 19:02:10 $He was a wonderful man$ Apr 01 19:02:50 *Madchen squeezes his hand* Ma waking up Apr 01 19:03:05 $Its time for me to go little one$ Apr 01 19:03:16 I love you, Vati Apr 01 19:03:30 $And I you, little one, endlessly$ Apr 01 19:03:47 * Jana smiles “me too” Apr 01 19:04:08 * Morgan looks to Madchen Apr 01 19:04:18 Alright, lets have a minute just us shall we? Apr 01 19:06:15 *Madchen takes him outside onto a lawn* Apr 01 19:06:44 I hope I see you again soon little lady Apr 01 19:07:04 M: See Mae Ma dreams Apr 01 19:08:06 * Morgan nods, kissing her cheek Apr 01 19:08:09 I love you very much Apr 01 19:08:47 *Madchen kisses him back* Love Vati. See soon Apr 01 19:09:34 Yes little lady Apr 01 19:09:43 * Morgan takes a long look at her before trying to take up Apr 01 19:10:45 *he manages it. Molly fidgets a little Apr 01 19:10:50 * Jana is now known as Molly Apr 01 19:11:06 * Morgan puts his hand on her Apr 01 19:11:10 Its alright love, I'm here Apr 01 19:11:29 * Molly turns to him, cuddling up tight Apr 01 19:12:02 Its okay... its just a dream Apr 01 19:13:50 * Molly nods, but still holds tightly Apr 01 19:14:51 Deep breaths my love... Apr 01 19:15:31 * Molly does so before saying Apr 01 19:15:37 I’m sorry Apr 01 19:15:49 Whatever for? Apr 01 19:16:05 Seb... he was kissing me and touching me... Apr 01 19:16:25 Sshh shhh, we've been over that Apr 01 19:16:36 I’ve not had it before Apr 01 19:16:51 Its okay Apr 01 19:17:21 * Molly nods Apr 01 19:17:40 Okay. I wasn’t really enjoying it Apr 01 19:18:20 * Morgan nods, kissing her forehead Apr 01 19:20:09 * Molly gently kisses his neck “It’s still early I think” Apr 01 19:20:56 * Morgan checks the time Apr 01 19:24:20 *it’s only an hour since last time* Apr 01 19:24:52 * Morgan sighs Apr 01 19:24:59 alright... we have to get more sleep Apr 01 19:26:30 * Molly nods “Yes, my love” Apr 01 19:29:35 *He dreams of what he was first dreaming. He’d followed all of Yensid’s instructions, discovering a lot of joy could come from pleasing her, and then eventually had made love to her. It had been barely painful at all for her, and the experience of his own pleasure had been wonderful. They’d made love every night for a week, but then it had been time for him to go back to War. MTF Apr 01 19:31:37 Months passed, then seasons. She’s written that she wasn’t pregnant, and he’d written to say that she wasn’t to worry about it, or the fighting she knew he was involved. Some weeks only the thought of seeing her or his mother again kept him going. It was frequently bloody, miserable, and muddy. MTF Apr 01 19:33:14 He and Grendlik had killed their first men side by side, and both had had promotions again by the following Autumn, Morgan a lieutenant. They got assigned to a new unit, led by a merchant named Kauffmann, who Morgan immediately hated, and vice versa. MTF Apr 01 19:35:04 *His 18th birthday was celebrated in a brothel where he’d been dragged, but no one pushed him to do more than sit by the fire. Grendlik had stayed downstairs with him. He hands him another drink, then glances briefly at a woman sat in a man’s lap with bare breasts* Apr 01 19:35:10 * Molly is now known as Grendlik Apr 01 19:36:01 Did you hear from her today? *His last letter had been a week ago, and dated three weeks before, hard for mail to find anyone* Apr 01 19:36:38 No... got my last letter last week Apr 01 19:36:51 * Grendlik nods, drinking some blokners Apr 01 19:37:02 Are you missing her? Apr 01 19:37:21 * Morgan nods Apr 01 19:37:23 Of course Apr 01 19:37:46 Do you think we’ll get leave for Prophet’s Mass? Apr 01 19:37:57 * Morgan shrugs Apr 01 19:38:04 That'd be nice... tough to say Apr 01 19:38:25 Maybe you’ll be there for your wedding anniversary Apr 01 19:38:42 * Morgan nods Apr 01 19:38:44 I hope so Apr 01 19:39:45 *one of the men in their unit comes over* Sure we can’t tempt you? Eighteen today, it’d be on us Apr 01 19:40:00 No, thank you... I'm married Apr 01 19:41:01 Man: You’re young to be married! Apr 01 19:41:15 * Morgan shrugs Apr 01 19:41:21 My father and uncle arranged it Apr 01 19:41:42 *Man nods* What about you, Grendlik? Apr 01 19:42:08 * Grendlik shakes his head “no, I’m waiting until marriage” Apr 01 19:42:45 Man: Might not survive the War, I don’t see the point in waiting Apr 01 19:43:28 I’m a by-blow, I don’t want illegitimate children Apr 01 19:44:14 Thats probably wise Apr 01 19:44:55 *The man shrugs* Alright then *he puts money down* get yourselves drinks instead Apr 01 19:45:11 * Morgan nods, thanking him Apr 01 19:45:19 *the man goes Apr 01 19:45:38 I get a good allowance, but I never want to offend them... Apr 01 19:45:52 * Morgan nods Apr 01 19:46:01 Agreed. Apr 01 19:47:03 * Grendlik drinks some, then spots Kaufmann “Uh oh, here he comes” Apr 01 19:47:20 * Morgan sighs, not looking Apr 01 19:47:51 *He comes over* Koertig, Niedersachsen. Apr 01 19:47:56 Sir. Apr 01 19:48:05 Sir Apr 01 19:48:46 K: You wanted leave over Prophet’s Mass for a special date around that time? Apr 01 19:48:59 Yes sir Apr 01 19:49:40 *Kaufmann smiles* There’s no leave. We are going to be working right through until the end of January. Apr 01 19:50:00 All of us, sir? Apr 01 19:50:40 K: No, Steiger and Barrow are going home for three weeks. Apr 01 19:51:23 I see. If you'll excuse me, sir, I'll send word so my father knows not to expect us for Prophets Mass or my anniversary Apr 01 19:52:03 K: You will have to pay for your own messenger, the navy doesn’t have resources for trivial letters between nobles. Apr 01 19:52:45 Yes sir, I would not expect the navy to pay for my expenses... thats a nice coat, by the way... Apr 01 19:56:00 *Kaufmann watches him suspiciously* Yes it is Apr 01 19:59:49 I'm looking forward to the rest of us getting one Apr 01 20:01:17 Kaufmann sneers: The men who cannot afford them will get them first. You two can write to your Fathers for money to buy them. At your own cost. Apr 01 20:01:59 * Morgan watches him Apr 01 20:02:27 * Morgan nods Apr 01 20:02:50 I'll be sure to write to the admiral to commend their decision in that that you've just relayed to us Apr 01 20:03:09 *Kaufmann huffs off* Apr 01 20:03:16 * Grendlik smirks Apr 01 20:03:33 It’s a good job you’ve already been promoted Apr 01 20:03:59 Promotion or not, someones got to knock that little bag of crap off his perch Apr 01 20:05:36 * Grendlik laughs. A dark haired woman with very green eyes comes to join them. Her dress leaves little to the imagination, and she’s very beautiful. When she says “Good evening, my Lords” its with a strong Vodacce accent Apr 01 20:05:52 * Morgan inclines his head Apr 01 20:05:55 Miss... Apr 01 20:06:37 *she helps herself to a seat* I will tell your futures for a silver coin... Apr 01 20:06:56 * Morgan looks uncomfortable Apr 01 20:07:47 * Grendlik shrugs, handing her a coin. She insists on seeing his palm, which he lets her do Apr 01 20:08:25 woman: I see a conflict with a superior officer *he glances at Morgan, smiling slightly* Apr 01 20:08:35 * Morgan rolls his eyes Apr 01 20:09:12 woman: You would like him to no longer be your superior officer? Apr 01 20:09:38 * Grendlik nods “Definitely” Apr 01 20:10:08 *She nods again “By Spring, you will have a different one” Apr 01 20:10:43 Don't think we're -that- lucky Apr 01 20:11:32 *She smiles at Morgan* You will see. Your friend will also get married, but not for a few years Apr 01 20:12:49 * Grendlik shrugs “Most men do eventually” Apr 01 20:12:54 * Morgan nods Apr 01 20:12:56 indeed Apr 01 20:16:44 woman, to Grendlik: You will have two children, a boy and a girl Apr 01 20:17:54 That'll be nice... Apr 01 20:18:07 * Grendlik nods “Alright? I don’t mind children I guess” Apr 01 20:18:47 Woman: You will have your wife’s father’s title and be a Freiarr Apr 01 20:19:09 If you want to -really- impress us, you'll tell us where Apr 01 20:19:56 *she studies his hand* Innsbruck? Apr 01 20:20:07 * Morgan laughs Apr 01 20:20:16 * Grendlik chuckles “Not a chance!” Apr 01 20:20:54 Woman: You will. Apr 01 20:21:18 * Morgan is still chuckling to himself Apr 01 20:21:38 You best tell your Uncle he’s not marrying Alarice to Eldreich then! Apr 01 20:22:06 There's always Jarvie... Apr 01 20:22:16 She’s ten! Apr 01 20:22:27 She said a few years Apr 01 20:22:47 *the woman nods* That works Apr 01 20:23:01 * Morgan snorts, rolling his eyes Apr 01 20:23:44 * Grendlik chuckles “I had best start making a good impression on your Father and Uncle” Apr 01 20:24:01 That'll have to wait, we're not going home til January Apr 01 20:24:22 *the holds out her hand for Morgan’s* Apr 01 20:24:47 * Morgan sighs, holding out his hand Apr 01 20:25:08 *she looks at it for almost a minute* Apr 01 20:25:21 * Grendlik shrugs, drinking another mouthful Apr 01 20:25:36 * Morgan shrugs a little, picking up his drink with his other hand Apr 01 20:26:05 Woman: You will be with your wife on your anniversary. Apr 01 20:26:30 * Morgan scoffs Apr 01 20:26:34 Just been told otherwise Apr 01 20:27:04 Woman: You will. And you will be a captain by the summer Apr 01 20:27:46 Rather straying into the absurd there... I've only just been promoted to lieutenant... there's still lieutenant commander and commander in between... Apr 01 20:28:11 Woman: You will see. Apr 01 20:28:24 How many children is he going to have? Apr 01 20:28:35 Woman: With his wife? Apr 01 20:28:50 As opposed to... Apr 01 20:28:51 * Grendlik looks at Morgan Apr 01 20:29:06 W: You will have seven legitimate children... Apr 01 20:29:34 You're implying I would dally with a woman other than my wife? Apr 01 20:30:02 W: You will have a very long love affair with another woman Apr 01 20:30:10 * Grendlik looks surprised Apr 01 20:30:28 * Morgan looks deeply offended Apr 01 20:30:53 W: *she nods* You will have eight more children Apr 01 20:31:08 Thats preposterous Apr 01 20:31:34 * Grendlik nods “Even more ridiculous than me marrying Jarvie” Apr 01 20:31:45 * Morgan nods Apr 01 20:31:48 Exactly Apr 01 20:31:50 W: I only say what I see in your fates... Apr 01 20:32:20 Well, you are wrong Apr 01 20:32:28 W: You will see. Apr 01 20:32:46 * Morgan scowls at her, pulling his hand back Apr 01 20:33:18 *The woman shrugs, taking the coin and going to a different table* Apr 01 20:33:31 * Grendlik puts his hand on Morgan’s shoulder Apr 01 20:33:39 What a complete load of bollocks Apr 01 20:34:24 She probably fished around from the men to find a place that we’ve talked about. I don’t believe a word of it. Two children with Jarvie, and us being cousins by marriage? Nonsense. Apr 01 20:34:38 * Morgan nods Apr 01 20:34:48 Yeah, I expect you're right Apr 01 20:37:25 * Grendlik nods, drinking some more. But when the orders come through in December that they are heading for a battlefield thirty miles south east of Graben at the foot of the mountains, he can’t help recalling her prediction. They’re closer by the twentieth when Kaufmann pulls them aside in the camp “KOERTIG, NIEDERSACHSEN!” Apr 01 20:37:32 * Grendlik is now known as Kaufmann Apr 01 20:37:46 sir Apr 01 20:38:30 *he murmurs* I was hoping to cut my toenails instead *then he says Sir!, heading to the man* Apr 01 20:39:13 * Morgan nods a little, following Grendlik Apr 01 20:39:23 * Kaufmann looks smug Apr 01 20:41:07 You are given one day of leave, You are to return from Graben the day after tomorrow with provisions for the unit, which of course we will not need to pay for, given it is your Father-in-law’s town. Apr 01 20:41:37 * Morgan tilts his head Apr 01 20:41:41 No sir Apr 01 20:42:51 Yes you will, or other men will be sent and you will miss out. I will of course send them with a note that makes it clear you were given the choice and refused to spend your anniversary with your wife despite being lonely enough to spend your birthday in a brotherly. Apr 01 20:42:55 brothel. Apr 01 20:43:10 * Morgan clenches his fists Apr 01 20:44:20 Perhaps you would like to accompany us to make sure it goes as you plan -sir-... Apr 01 20:45:12 No, I have a unit to look after. If you need someone to wipe your backside for you because you have no servants, I expect you to ask Niedersachsen. Apr 01 20:45:28 Oh, sir, I was actually thinking of their safety Apr 01 20:46:04 * Kaufmann looks at him “You have a smart mouth, Koertig. it’ll get you into a lot of trouble.” Apr 01 20:46:30 * Morgan looks him up and down Apr 01 20:46:42 Wouldn't like to say... -sir- Apr 01 20:47:20 Take the cart and get out of my sight. Be sure it comes back full of food for the men. Apr 01 20:47:43 Yessir, I'll make sure the invoice is properly addressed... one F, yes? Apr 01 20:48:21 Niedersachsen can use your invoice instead of leaves to wipe your backside. Go. Apr 01 20:48:59 No. I'm not having my father in law pay out because you simply don't like me. Apr 01 20:49:16 I told you to go. Apr 01 20:49:39 * Morgan stares at him Apr 01 20:49:48 Be careful out there -sir-... Apr 01 20:50:09 *Kaufmann strides off. Grendlik watches him go* Apr 01 20:50:14 * Kaufmann is now known as Grendlik Apr 01 20:50:44 She was right about the anniversary, maybe she’ll be right about him not being our captain from spring Apr 01 20:51:02 He carries on like that he won't be our captain past tomorrow night Apr 01 20:51:09 * Grendlik laughs Apr 01 20:51:35 Do you want to set off tonight? we could make it by midnight Apr 01 20:51:40 * Morgan nods Apr 01 20:51:42 Lets get going Apr 01 20:53:57 *This is what they do. It’s dark when they set off, and hard to navigate, but Grendlik has a knack for it. It’s creepy, so the two eighteen year olds sing as they go along, some sea shanties, but when it gets most creepy they sings hymns. By quarter before midnight they take the winding path up to the big house in Graben Apr 01 20:54:22 Its not home... but right now its close enough Apr 01 20:54:29 will she definitely be here? Apr 01 20:54:34 * Morgan shrugs Apr 01 20:54:50 I don't know... there's every chance they've all gathered in Sudlachenburg since I won't be there Apr 01 20:55:15 * Grendlik looks genuine when he says “I truly hope that isn’t the case” Apr 01 20:55:30 * Morgan nods, sighing Apr 01 20:55:32 Me too Apr 01 20:56:36 *When he gets there, the only butler on duty assures them that Mina and Joseff are both here but have retired. He asks Morgan if they’ll need two rooms, or just one for Grendlik Apr 01 20:56:55 * Morgan sighs Apr 01 20:57:05 Best have two... I doubt she'll appreciate being woken at this hour Apr 01 20:57:36 She hasn’t seen you for a year, Morgan, go and see her... Apr 01 20:58:15 * Morgan nods, grasping his shoulder for a moment before asking for directions Apr 01 20:58:45 *he gets them, but Grendlik calls* Maybe have a wash though, you stink Apr 01 20:59:10 *The but Apr 01 20:59:30 * Morgan nods, going to get washed up Apr 01 21:00:20 *he manages this, changing into his cleaner spare uniform, and finds Mina’s room* Apr 01 21:00:55 * Morgan knocks quietly Apr 01 21:01:02 * Grendlik is now known as Mina Apr 01 21:01:05 Enter Apr 01 21:01:13 * Morgan goes into the room, closing the door behind him Apr 01 21:01:17 I'm sorry to disturb you Apr 01 21:01:24 * Mina looks delighted Apr 01 21:01:34 What are you doing here?! Apr 01 21:01:42 Sneaking into a pretty girls room... Apr 01 21:01:54 * Mina smiles Apr 01 21:02:06 But she wasn’t there so you’re coming in here? Apr 01 21:02:46 You know you are the most beautiful woman in the world to me, yes? Apr 01 21:02:50 * Morgan moves to her Apr 01 21:03:49 * Mina has her hair in a long sleeping braid and a simple cotton nightdress with embroidered peach flowers on it Apr 01 21:04:02 I do, and you the most handsome man to me Apr 01 21:04:17 * Morgan sits on the edge of the bed Apr 01 21:04:29 I have missed you Apr 01 21:04:48 * Mina sits up “I’ve missed you too. How long do you have?” Apr 01 21:04:54 * Morgan sighs Apr 01 21:04:57 Just a day Apr 01 21:05:11 two nights and a day? Apr 01 21:05:37 Tonight, tomorrow, tomorrow night. I need to head back the day after Apr 01 21:05:57 * Mina nods, moving closer Apr 01 21:06:07 We can work with that... Apr 01 21:06:18 * Morgan nods, smiling Apr 01 21:06:22 Yes, we can. Apr 01 21:07:05 * Mina kisses him, much more confidently than on their wedding day Apr 01 21:07:18 * Morgan makes a noise of enjoyment, returning her kiss Apr 01 21:07:46 * Mina wastes no time in starting to undo his jacket Apr 01 21:08:00 * Morgan sheds it quickly Apr 01 21:08:13 Boots. *she kisses him again* Apr 01 21:08:28 * Morgan smiles a little, kicking his boots off Apr 01 21:08:45 * Mina pulls off his shirt between kisses Apr 01 21:09:03 I'm starting to think you're overdressed... Apr 01 21:09:50 * Mina kneels up on the bed, crossing her arms to pull the night dress off over her head, revealing the scar Apr 01 21:10:28 * Morgan immediately runs his hands down her sides Apr 01 21:11:55 * Mina kisses him harder, her bared skin to his, her nipples already firm from the cold December air that even the fire in the grate doesn’t quite get rid of Apr 01 21:12:23 * Morgan lets go of her to shed his trousers before climbing into the bed with her, his lips barely leaving hers Apr 01 21:13:29 * Mina shifts, straddling him. Between kisses she says “I’ve asked... my maids... for tips...” Apr 01 21:13:40 Oh really? Apr 01 21:14:35 * Mina kisses his neck before reaching between them to touch his manhood Apr 01 21:14:56 * Morgan jumps a little, moaning quietly Apr 01 21:16:51 * Mina smiles, holding him in a warm grip. The clock in Mina’s room chimes midnight, but it is actually the dawn watch, and he wakes. Molly’s body is wrapped around him, and her hand is wrapped around his erection Apr 01 21:17:20 * Morgan lays still, trying to work out if she's awake Apr 01 21:17:31 * Mina is now known as Molly Apr 01 21:17:41 * Molly seems to be lightly sleeping Apr 01 21:18:15 * Morgan lays there for a few minutes before trying to gently disengage himself from her Apr 01 21:18:40 * Molly makes a noise of disappointment “no... don’t go...” Apr 01 21:18:53 Its morning my love Apr 01 21:19:16 Can’t morning wait a while? Apr 01 21:19:41 * Morgan chuckles Apr 01 21:19:46 I'm not quite sure thats how it works Apr 01 21:20:09 * Molly kisses his shoulder blades Apr 01 21:20:43 Too early for dawn *she gently fondles him too* Apr 01 21:20:53 * Morgan moans quietly Apr 01 21:23:37 * Molly swirls her tongue over his back, even the scars, and takes him in a firmer grip “Will you stay a little?” Apr 01 21:23:48 * Morgan nods Apr 01 21:23:49 Alright Apr 01 21:25:23 * Molly strokes him slowly, still kissing his back. He can smell the warmth and pregnancy scent from her, and her bump fits neatly in his lower back Apr 01 21:25:42 * Morgan moans Apr 01 21:27:40 * Molly speaks against his skin “I love you.... I want you.” Apr 01 21:28:06 And I you my love Apr 01 21:29:36 How would you like me? what would please you? Apr 01 21:30:40 Would you perhaps be on top? Apr 01 21:31:50 * Molly smiles, he can feel it on his back. She shifts, then eagerly pushes him so he’s flat on the bed Apr 01 21:32:07 * Morgan lays flat, watching her Apr 01 21:33:59 * Molly smiles, straddling his hips and moving back and forth along him so that he’s surrounded by the sweet heat and wetness of her Apr 01 21:34:32 Oh god thats good Apr 01 21:35:52 * Molly nods, grinding at the top of the movement so the most sensitive bit of his skin is rubbed by the firmness of her clit. She shudders, moaning quietly Apr 01 21:36:46 * Morgan reaches down, gripping her hips Apr 01 21:37:39 * Molly leans down so she can kiss him. This brings the firm curve of her belly to his stomach Apr 01 21:37:58 * Morgan moans against her Apr 01 21:38:48 * Molly rolls her hips as she licks his lower lip, and captures his tip between her soft folds Apr 01 21:39:53 * Morgan moans into her mouth Apr 01 21:40:55 * Molly changes this gradual, sensual approach, suddenly moving back and firmly taking his full length into her Apr 01 21:43:02 * Morgan makes a guttural groan, throwing his head back Apr 01 21:43:33 You... like... that? Apr 01 21:43:47 Oh god yes Apr 01 21:44:13 * Molly sits up more, and grinds deeply Apr 01 21:44:45 * Morgan watches her, his hands on her hips Apr 01 21:45:59 * Molly moves his hands onto her belly, smiling in the low light as she rises the sinks firmly Apr 01 21:46:24 * Morgan smiles, letting her ride him Apr 01 21:47:52 * Molly reaches a hand down, and he can feel against his pubic bone and against the base on his cock as she rubs her clit, continuing at the sort of pace she knows he likes Apr 01 21:48:37 * Morgan groans, clearly enjoying it Apr 01 21:49:13 That feels so good. I’ve missed having you within me Apr 01 21:52:37 * Morgan nods Apr 01 21:52:42 I feel the same Apr 01 21:53:38 * Molly nods, watching him as she briefly swaps her hands so she can suck her fingers Apr 01 21:54:23 * Morgan groans again, bucking against her a little Apr 01 21:55:51 * Molly swaps hands again, still riding him quite roughly. As her body tenses and relaxes he’s more about to feel how her bump remains Apr 01 21:56:13 * Morgan starts breathing slowly Apr 01 21:56:17 not... long... Apr 01 21:57:00 * Molly nods, rubbing herself faster and stroking her slick fingers along his lip Apr 01 21:57:22 * Morgan immediately sucks it into his mouth Apr 01 21:57:33 I love the way you stretch and fill me.... Apr 01 21:57:51 * Morgan grunts again Apr 01 21:59:21 *she tastes even better as her pregnancy goes along, and it’s nice to have the reassurance that he can touch her increasing belly as they have sex. She moan softly and repeatedly, getting close* Apr 01 21:59:54 * Morgan starts taking deep breaths, rocking his hips as hers descend Apr 01 22:00:17 Fuck, yes, there! Apr 01 22:00:44 * Morgan grunts Apr 01 22:00:51 I'm... going... to... cum... Apr 01 22:01:58 * Molly ‘s brows come together, set off by this, and everything tightens around him as she climaxes Apr 01 22:05:22 * Morgan lets out a long, guttural moan as his seed spills into her Apr 01 22:06:59 * Molly throws her head back, peaking again with another intense moan, grinding deeply around him Apr 01 22:07:07 Fuck! Apr 01 22:08:02 * Molly tenderly strokes his cheek even as she rubs her body to a final ecstacy Apr 01 22:08:29 * Morgan collapses back against the mattress Apr 01 22:08:31 Fucking hell Apr 01 22:10:51 * Molly gently rolls her hips, intent on leaving him completely drained before she leans forward to kiss his lips softly Apr 01 22:11:13 * Morgan kisses her gently Apr 01 22:13:50 * Molly moves to lie beside him, stroking his face gently “Sometimes I don’t realise quite how desperately I need you” Apr 01 22:14:00 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:14:01 Me too Apr 01 22:15:14 Especially when things are busy. It’s like when you do not realise how thirsty you are until water hits your tongue, then you are so desperate you could happily drown in it Apr 01 22:15:41 * Morgan nods, holding her to him Apr 01 22:16:08 * Molly strokes his hair back “that was bliss” Apr 01 22:16:31 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:16:35 Definitely was Apr 01 22:17:08 * Molly kisses him again “How was your night?” Apr 01 22:17:28 * Morgan Sighs Apr 01 22:17:30 The usual Apr 01 22:17:37 nightmares? Apr 01 22:17:58 Paths Apr 01 22:18:26 Are you still dreaming of the baby I had in the barn? Apr 01 22:18:40 Not last night, no. Apr 01 22:18:49 * Molly nods Apr 01 22:18:53 what was it? Apr 01 22:19:05 One of them was yours... Apr 01 22:20:13 * Molly sighs “I don’t recall much of it, but Seb was angry with me, and rough. Not like you and I are together, but angrily rough, which was not nice” Apr 01 22:20:42 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:20:43 aye Apr 01 22:20:54 I felt... useless, not being able to stop it Apr 01 22:21:13 * Molly nods Apr 01 22:21:19 What did you see? Apr 01 22:21:38 You were arguing... Apr 01 22:21:46 * Molly nods Apr 01 22:22:14 He was angry you are not with him like you dream of being with me... Apr 01 22:22:30 * Molly nods sadly Apr 01 22:23:03 Yes, he was. I thought I’d need to do those things to make him be kinder to me again Apr 01 22:23:13 * Morgan frowns Apr 01 22:23:20 You don't feel like that with me do you? Apr 01 22:25:41 * Molly shakes her head Apr 01 22:26:32 Absolutely not. Everything we have done is because I have wanted to. And you are kind to me always, whether we have sex or not Apr 01 22:27:13 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:27:14 good Apr 01 22:27:58 I hope you feel the same? I know I have asked and suggested things far beyond what you had ever done or imagined... Apr 01 22:28:20 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:28:25 I very much enjoy what we do Apr 01 22:29:09 * Molly smiles “Good. When we have time, we can use the chair again to see how many fingers you can get within me...” Apr 01 22:29:37 * Morgan blushes but nods Apr 01 22:29:39 I would like that Apr 01 22:29:45 * Molly nods Apr 01 22:29:53 With the mirrors too? Apr 01 22:30:12 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:30:15 I think so Apr 01 22:31:00 find a time and the desire, my love, and my body is completely yours to enjoy and explore Apr 01 22:31:08 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:31:14 I shall keep that firmly in mind Apr 01 22:31:55 mmmhmm nice and firmly whilst you’re going about your day please, I enjoy the thought of you fantasising about me Apr 01 22:32:04 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:32:09 I will do my best Apr 01 22:32:13 * Molly nods Apr 01 22:33:31 once things are more settled with your father I’m sure your ardour will become what you anticipated, and you can be concerned about pestering me rather than not enthused enough Apr 01 22:33:58 * Morgan looks a little hurt by that Apr 01 22:34:31 I know how you worry about disappointing me, my love. You are not kind to yourself Apr 01 22:35:09 perhaps Apr 01 22:35:48 what are you thinking,liebling? Apr 01 22:36:20 That I am not attentive enough for you Apr 01 22:37:59 You are burdened, and I know that puts sex from your mind. It is just how things are with everything going on. My being pregnant cannot off-set that, we can only hope for easier times Apr 01 22:38:20 I think it does to a degree Apr 01 22:38:34 does it? Apr 01 22:38:46 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:40:01 * Molly smiles “It makes it more likely to pop into your thoughts?” Apr 01 22:40:07 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:40:09 Much more likely Apr 01 22:41:11 * Molly smiles Apr 01 22:41:34 Will it get worse once I do not have to conceal my body anymore? Apr 01 22:41:45 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:41:48 Oh most likely Apr 01 22:42:45 * Molly smiles Apr 01 22:43:47 I look forward to it. I do find it is making me worse too. It’s like parts of me are more aware... Apr 01 22:44:03 Oh? Apr 01 22:45:38 * Molly bites her lip “Everything between my thighs seems warmer and more swollen most of the time” Apr 01 22:46:06 * Morgan nods, smiling Apr 01 22:47:59 It is making my life a little more difficult, I must confess Apr 01 22:48:15 Whyso? Apr 01 22:49:30 I’m rather too busy to Umm... take matters in hand Apr 01 22:50:09 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:50:11 You are rathe Apr 01 22:51:01 But if I wasn’t, you wouldn’t mind? Apr 01 22:51:32 No love Apr 01 22:51:52 Would you wish to know? Apr 01 22:51:58 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:52:01 Yes please Apr 01 22:52:04 Ideally before you do it Apr 01 22:52:12 why then? Apr 01 22:52:25 May as well both get some enjoyment from it Apr 01 22:52:41 would you, even if you were busy? Apr 01 22:53:21 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:53:30 Unless I was in some sort of distress, I imagine so Apr 01 22:53:43 Are you likely to be? Apr 01 22:53:58 * Morgan shrugs Apr 01 22:53:59 Who knows? Apr 01 22:54:12 * Molly nods Apr 01 22:54:50 I will bear in mind that I should tell you before I do so... almost like having your permission Apr 01 22:54:57 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:54:58 Indeed Apr 01 22:55:06 you like that? Apr 01 22:55:20 * Morgan nods Apr 01 22:55:22 I do, yes Apr 01 22:55:37 * Molly nods, smiling Apr 01 22:55:43 Alright then Apr 01 22:56:32 * Molly kisses his cheek “It isn’t even five I think... I am going to go back to sleep, my love” Apr 01 22:56:48 * Morgan nods, kissing her before getting out of bed Apr 01 23:19:03 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 01 23:57:09 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)
