Apr 09 20:30:04 Yes... to pick your political brains Apr 09 20:30:06 *Edward nods, drinking the last of his cup of coffee* If I could be excused, I’d like to see my daughter Apr 09 20:30:12 Of course, of course. Thank you, brother Apr 09 20:31:12 * Molly is now known as Adalbrecht Apr 09 20:32:30 *Edward goes* Apr 09 20:33:45 * Morgan looks at the door for a moment after it closes Apr 09 20:34:24 I think he and his wife are doing well Apr 09 20:34:33 * Morgan nods Apr 09 20:35:02 Much better. It'll be better still once she is with child Apr 09 20:36:01 * Adalbrecht smiles Apr 09 20:36:46 I hope Graben has its own heir in the cradle before long Apr 09 20:37:14 I'm sure it will Apr 09 20:37:51 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 20:38:12 Poor Maubourg with no heirs, and I have two Apr 09 20:38:48 * Morgan nods a little Apr 09 20:39:13 As it is, the best he can hope for now is some reconciliation with his daughter Apr 09 20:40:18 Is this her husband’s parish? Apr 09 20:41:00 * Morgan nods Apr 09 20:41:07 Reverend Loewe, yes Apr 09 20:41:16 have you seen her? Apr 09 20:41:36 A couple of times, yes Apr 09 20:42:28 is she suffering the lack of noble comforts? Apr 09 20:42:42 She looks -happy-. Content. Apr 09 20:45:11 I would never have expected that Apr 09 20:45:47 * Morgan nods Apr 09 20:46:02 I have offered my aid in building bridges between them... Apr 09 20:48:06 * Adalbrecht nods, watching him speculatively Apr 09 20:48:15 What do you make of it? Apr 09 20:49:24 * Morgan shrugs Apr 09 20:49:42 The similarities are obvious... Apr 09 20:50:46 yes. she made a slightly different choice Apr 09 20:51:02 Yes, she did Apr 09 20:53:04 do you envy her that? Apr 09 20:53:52 * Morgan sips his coffee Apr 09 20:54:06 I dont know. The outcome for her has been similar regardless Apr 09 20:55:08 how so? Apr 09 20:55:29 The scandal as hit them anyway... she is estranged from her father anyway... Apr 09 20:55:53 but they are safe Apr 09 20:56:55 * Morgan looks hurt but nods Apr 09 20:58:00 * Adalbrecht drinks some coffee Apr 09 20:58:08 I assume Maubourg will attend? Apr 09 20:58:23 Yes Apr 09 21:00:24 And she will also? Apr 09 21:00:33 She is the organist at the church Apr 09 21:01:37 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 21:01:51 Are you going to wear breeches? Apr 09 21:02:08 * Morgan smiles a little Apr 09 21:02:11 Yes, I am Apr 09 21:02:17 * Adalbrecht smiles Apr 09 21:02:20 good Apr 09 21:02:42 Easier to ponce about in Apr 09 21:03:39 I am sure you will look appropriately smart. have you seen the boys’ outfits yet? Apr 09 21:04:10 No... I've only seen the sashes Apr 09 21:07:08 Your Mother was going to take them for the children to try on Apr 09 21:07:26 * Morgan nods Apr 09 21:07:29 I'm sure they're wonderful Apr 09 21:09:27 there is only one catch Apr 09 21:09:56 What's that? Apr 09 21:10:18 She has based the design on the outfit you had put in the vault... Apr 09 21:10:47 I see... Apr 09 21:14:03 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 21:14:23 I have not explained to her the true purpose of it Apr 09 21:15:06 How do you mean? Apr 09 21:17:47 It was intended for your second child Apr 09 21:18:21 * Morgan nods Apr 09 21:18:29 I have not told Edward about that Apr 09 21:22:17 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 21:22:35 I will not make the mistake of accidentally telling him as I did Molly Apr 09 21:23:13 * Morgan nods Apr 09 21:23:21 He wants to visit the graves Apr 09 21:25:35 * Adalbrecht looks surprised Apr 09 21:25:52 Will you allow that? Apr 09 21:26:57 I think it would be, in the long run, helpful for him Apr 09 21:27:42 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 21:27:53 If you need my assistance with that, you will have it Apr 09 21:27:58 * Morgan nods Apr 09 21:28:10 Thank you father... I expect it to be very tough Apr 09 21:31:07 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 21:31:20 For now we must focus on the baptisms Apr 09 21:31:51 * Morgan nods Apr 09 21:32:17 I think... the design will help give the boys another connection to their siblings, even though they aren't here Apr 09 21:33:36 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 21:33:48 You will not tell your Mother, I assume Apr 09 21:33:58 No... I don't think so Apr 09 21:36:39 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 21:36:45 I think that is for the best Apr 09 21:36:55 I would only cause her distress Apr 09 21:37:27 Indeed Apr 09 21:39:56 * Morgan sips his coffee Apr 09 21:40:02 What do you have planned for this afternoon? Apr 09 21:41:25 I was going to spend time with outdoors Apr 09 21:42:00 * Morgan looks at him for a moment Apr 09 21:42:02 Why? Apr 09 21:44:43 I enjoy it Apr 09 21:45:08 * Morgan nods Apr 09 21:45:15 Would you like that tour of the house first? Apr 09 21:46:41 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 21:46:55 If you have nothing else to do Apr 09 21:47:36 If we get moving we can get it done before the Rosenkrantz's arrive Apr 09 21:53:11 * Adalbrecht nods, finish8ng his coffee Apr 09 21:55:08 * Morgan does likewise Apr 09 21:55:11 It won't take us long Apr 09 21:56:22 * Adalbrecht goes with him to do this. Ballard is found in the music room, watching staff moving things around and sweeping the floor again Apr 09 21:56:58 * Morgan calls the dog to his side, fussing him Apr 09 21:58:43 *Ballard leans against Morgan’s leg* Apr 09 21:58:58 He lives in the house permanently? Apr 09 21:59:36 * Morgan nods Apr 09 21:59:46 As does Captain Ulysses... and Bir... Apr 09 22:04:14 Your home is like a menagerie Apr 09 22:04:30 No... its like a home Apr 09 22:06:40 * Adalbrecht watches the work Apr 09 22:06:48 What are they doing? Apr 09 22:07:21 * Morgan watches them for a full minute before nodding slightly Apr 09 22:07:26 Moving things and sweeping Apr 09 22:09:15 For what? Apr 09 22:09:52 * Morgan smiles Apr 09 22:10:01 Surprise, if what I've heard is accurate Apr 09 22:10:56 * Adalbrecht smiles “For the children?” Apr 09 22:11:58 For Molly Apr 09 22:14:31 * Adalbrecht smiles “I am sure she will be pleased with your efforts “ Apr 09 22:15:16 I just hope the information I've had is trustworthy Apr 09 22:16:51 When do you expect it? Apr 09 22:17:04 About the time his Grace arrives Apr 09 22:17:18 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 22:17:23 Very good Apr 09 22:17:37 We'll see, I suppose Apr 09 22:17:47 * Morgan nods to the staff, moving on with the tour Apr 09 22:17:54 *Ballard comes to Adalbrecht, sniffing his hand. Adalbrecht pats him absently* Apr 09 22:19:42 You ever consider getting a dog? Apr 09 22:20:12 I do not need one Apr 09 22:20:46 I don't -need- a cat with an eyepatch with a penchant for urinating on a particular captains sails... Apr 09 22:23:13 * Adalbrecht looks perplexed Apr 09 22:24:40 What confuses you? Apr 09 22:26:11 Whose sails? Apr 09 22:26:48 The captain of the ship he came from... he is not a pleasant man Apr 09 22:33:27 Can cats have vendettas? Apr 09 22:34:08 Apparently so... when we were docked before we left for Capperlucia, he wandered onto the mans ship and peed on his freshly cleaned sails Apr 09 22:38:22 * Adalbrecht laughs Apr 09 22:38:59 was that well received Apr 09 22:39:54 The captain came to pick a fight... First he tried to board the Rose... then when I informed him it was ill advised, he spat on the deck, so I assisted him back to the dock and to his own ship Apr 09 22:41:42 * Adalbrecht ‘s brows raise Apr 09 22:41:52 he -spat- on your deck? Apr 09 22:42:27 * Morgan nods Apr 09 22:44:39 I would have assisted him into an early grave. Apr 09 22:45:27 * Morgan smiles Apr 09 22:45:36 Who'd have thought it, me being more restrained than you Apr 09 22:47:08 * Adalbrecht chuckles “Indeed. It is a rare occurrence.” Apr 09 22:48:36 * Morgan nods Apr 09 22:48:47 I assisted him to the dock with my right food Apr 09 22:48:49 foot* Apr 09 22:49:34 * Adalbrecht nods, smiling Apr 09 22:49:40 good Apr 09 22:52:44 I helped him to his ship but, somehow, he missed it and ended up in the water Apr 09 22:53:41 A great pity! Apr 09 22:54:03 I thought so Apr 09 22:56:25 I don’t suppose he drowned? Apr 09 22:58:24 Couldn't tell you, I called man overboard to his crew and wandered back to minding my own business Apr 09 22:58:44 You might be lucky then Apr 09 22:58:56 * Morgan shrugs Apr 09 22:59:00 I'm not concerned about him Apr 09 22:59:18 where was it? Apr 09 22:59:29 Jura Apr 09 22:59:51 In Castile? I can’t see you’d have any good reason to want to go there again Apr 09 23:03:10 Depends on his Grace really Apr 09 23:04:21 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 23:04:31 Are you putting your cousin forward? Apr 09 23:05:19 Been nudging him that direction for a while... though in my case I just recommended he ask the explorers guild for their view of her Apr 09 23:05:52 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 23:06:16 There are many who would vouch for her, but would you take some advice? Apr 09 23:06:29 Don't I always? Apr 09 23:10:04 I think showing how Jarvinia and Uinise get on would be wise. Let him see that Jarvinia is a good fit With Capperlucians. Ideally he will see that she fits with Claudia too. Apr 09 23:10:21 * Morgan nods Apr 09 23:10:36 Uinise commented that Jarvie seems so normal... she'd fit in fine over there Apr 09 23:10:43 * Adalbrecht nods Apr 09 23:11:00 Their backwards relationship would be typical there? Apr 09 23:11:22 The women run everything... even their army Apr 09 23:31:46 * Adalbrecht has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
