**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Apr 11 17:31:32 2024 Apr 11 17:31:32 * Now talking on #7thsea Apr 11 20:10:05 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Apr 11 20:21:49 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 11 20:22:15 *Mina isn’t blushing, but she is smiling slightly* I doubt Morgan’s teenage self would have been quite so horrified by that idea Apr 11 20:22:16 * Molly and Inga giggle Apr 11 20:22:16 My teenage self wouldn't have had the faintest idea what you meant Apr 11 20:22:16 * Molly nods “You were a very good boy, mon petit chou...” Apr 11 20:22:19 * Morgan rolls his eyes, rolling up his sleeves Apr 11 20:22:21 * Molly doesn’t tease him further, just watching it Apr 11 20:22:23 *Mina doesn’t stare, politely looking back to her stitching* Apr 11 20:22:25 * Morgan flexes his fingers Apr 11 20:22:27 If it would help, Mina... I don't mind you looking. Apr 11 20:22:29 Mina: It’s fine, I appreciate the offer Apr 11 20:22:31 * Morgan watches her for a moment Apr 11 20:22:33 *Mina continues the sewing* Apr 11 20:22:35 My forearms, they don't really bother me... particularly since I got a new scar in Capperlucia Apr 11 20:22:37 Mina: What caused it? Apr 11 20:22:39 * Molly stands too Apr 11 20:22:41 I slipped while I was climbing the big wall Apr 11 20:22:43 Mina: That must have hurt Apr 11 20:22:45 Did rather, yes. Was two thirds of the way up, so I carried on Apr 11 20:22:49 Mina nods: Edward said you’d best it twice Apr 11 20:22:51 * Morgan nods, smiling Apr 11 20:22:52 First person ever Apr 11 20:22:53 *Mina smiles* It’s very impressive Apr 11 20:22:55 * Morgan nods, tracing the line of the scar with his thumb Apr 11 20:24:49 * Molly smiles “Are you coming, my love?” Apr 11 20:25:05 Just the way I'm stood... Apr 11 20:25:20 * Morgan rolls his shoulders, moving toward Molly Apr 11 20:26:16 *this makes Mina blush but Inga just giggles Apr 11 20:27:03 Come on then love Apr 11 20:29:02 * Molly goes with him through the boys room, the dressing room, and then to theirs Apr 11 20:30:51 how are you, my love? Apr 11 20:31:05 * Morgan shrugs Apr 11 20:31:08 I think I'm alright Apr 11 20:32:03 * Molly embraces him Apr 11 20:32:15 Are you nervous about Seb coming? Apr 11 20:33:05 * Morgan shrugs Apr 11 20:33:12 Not... especially... Apr 11 20:33:24 something else? Apr 11 20:33:43 * Morgan shrugs Apr 11 20:33:57 I don't know, there's just a lot going on Apr 11 20:36:34 Would you like some magic, my love? Apr 11 20:36:58 No, I'm okay. I think your father is quite anxious Apr 11 20:37:06 * Molly nods Apr 11 20:37:28 He is mostly concerned that they will try to persuade him to be the Freiarr Apr 11 20:38:02 * Morgan nods Apr 11 20:38:37 He will not accept that Apr 11 20:40:16 No. He loves Sudlachenburg, and Mama will not want to be away from our children Apr 11 20:40:42 * Morgan nods Apr 11 20:40:43 I agree Apr 11 20:42:14 whether we wish her to be or not, I think! Apr 11 20:43:05 * Morgan smiles Apr 11 20:43:10 Her heart is in the right place Apr 11 20:43:27 * Molly nods Apr 11 20:43:49 It is. She loves our boys, and she’s very pleased I am increasing... Apr 11 20:44:07 but... Apr 11 20:48:04 * Molly sighs Apr 11 20:48:14 I am still find8ng it a little irksome Apr 11 20:48:43 Have you spoken to her about it? Apr 11 20:49:31 no, there’s time for that in Sudlachenburg if the feelings persist Apr 11 20:49:43 She was planning to talk to you about it all Apr 11 20:49:54 * Molly nods Apr 11 20:50:22 i have too much else to think of tonight and tomorrow Apr 11 20:50:33 * Morgan nods Apr 11 20:50:35 Alright love Apr 11 20:53:08 * Molly gently kisses him Apr 11 20:53:19 Are you looking forward to tomorrow? Apr 11 20:53:29 Apart from the breeches, yes Apr 11 20:54:47 * Molly smiles Apr 11 20:55:06 I don’t mind you in breeches. I get to admire your calves Apr 11 20:56:29 * Morgan nods a little Apr 11 20:57:05 * Molly smiles Apr 11 20:57:11 You did not realise? Apr 11 20:57:21 * Morgan shakes his head Apr 11 20:57:24 No, not really Apr 11 20:58:02 I am often admiring you when you aren’t looking Apr 11 20:58:36 * Morgan looks a little surprised Apr 11 21:01:47 * Molly giggles Apr 11 21:01:55 How do you not know this?! Apr 11 21:02:58 * Morgan shrugs Apr 11 21:04:56 Well, I am Apr 11 21:05:04 * Morgan nods Apr 11 21:08:19 * Molly lets go Apr 11 21:08:33 I should get tidied up Apr 11 21:08:52 Don't think its needed, but okay Apr 11 21:13:25 That was why we came in here... unless there is something else you need? Apr 11 21:13:54 * Morgan smiles a little Apr 11 21:13:57 I'm alright for now Apr 11 21:14:48 I suppose you wouldn’t wish to need it to be five times a day when His Grace will be here Apr 11 21:15:54 It would be quite impractical Apr 11 21:16:43 I wouldn’t complain though. how is your Father? Apr 11 21:17:02 Alright I think. I left him cuddling Emil Apr 11 21:17:59 * Molly smiles Apr 11 21:18:07 that must be gratifying Apr 11 21:18:13 * Morgan nods Apr 11 21:18:16 aye Apr 11 21:21:21 I’m glad at least he has come around to our second adoption Apr 11 21:21:59 * Morgan nods Apr 11 21:22:02 aye Apr 11 21:23:34 how does he feel about having met Florrie? Apr 11 21:23:59 He is satisfied it went well... I think it went a damn sight better than that Apr 11 21:24:52 * Molly nods “I agree” Apr 11 21:25:14 She looked a little wary when we went back in the nursery before I came here, mind Apr 11 21:27:33 There is a lot happening at the moment, I think Apr 11 21:27:39 * Morgan nods Apr 11 21:27:40 Quite Apr 11 21:28:14 * Molly watches him intently Apr 11 21:28:27 And how are -you- feeling about it now? Apr 11 21:28:40 * Morgan sighs Apr 11 21:28:42 Its still difficult Apr 11 21:29:22 * Molly nods Apr 11 21:29:41 It was bound to be, my love. You cannot help but see the disparities Apr 11 21:29:50 * Morgan nods, frowning Apr 11 21:31:23 Talk to me, my love... Apr 11 21:32:14 We were talking about Teresa Loewe, and father said the. Biggest difference between her choice and mine was that they are safe... Apr 11 21:34:50 * Molly looks upset by this Apr 11 21:34:57 Why would he say that?! Apr 11 21:35:26 * Morgan shrugs Apr 11 21:35:30 I was quite hurt by it Apr 11 21:36:20 * Molly nods Apr 11 21:36:39 It’s so tactless... Oh my love... Apr 11 21:37:31 * Morgan shrugs a little Apr 11 21:37:41 Maybe he was just lashing out because he felt all at sea Apr 11 21:39:40 Maybe it didn’t come out as he intended? Apr 11 21:39:47 Possibly Apr 11 21:41:17 * Molly sighs “I’m sorry, liebling” Apr 11 21:41:24 You didn't say it Apr 11 21:41:42 I know, but still Apr 11 21:42:34 * Morgan nods, fiddling with the folds on his sleeves Apr 11 21:43:07 * Molly looks at them “Do they need letting out?” Apr 11 21:43:19 Hmm? Apr 11 21:44:11 Your cuffs Apr 11 21:44:58 No, they're okay Apr 11 21:45:33 It’s unusual for you to fiddle like that Apr 11 21:46:05 Its unusual for me to not know how I feel about it. Apr 11 21:47:18 About which part, my darling? Apr 11 21:47:47 What he said.. what her means... Apr 11 21:50:00 * Molly nods Apr 11 21:50:11 has it been troubling you? Apr 11 21:50:40 * Morgan nods Apr 11 21:50:45 A bit, yes Apr 11 21:53:46 * Molly nods Apr 11 21:53:59 Do you wish to listen to the baby? Might it help? Apr 11 21:54:10 * Morgan nods Apr 11 21:54:12 Yes please Apr 11 21:56:55 * Molly nods, sitting in the chair and reclining back. She lifts all her clothing so her bump is accessible, parting her knees so he can get close Apr 11 21:57:34 * Morgan sits between her legs, laying his head on her belly and listening Apr 11 21:58:25 *he can hear, very faintly, that little rhythm he seeks* Apr 11 21:59:15 * Morgan closes his eyes, just listening Apr 11 22:00:16 * Molly doesn’t interrupt him. She smells good, it’s going to take him effort to ignore it Apr 11 22:00:59 * Morgan concentrates on the sound, trying to relax Apr 11 22:03:14 *it does help him feel calmer* Apr 11 22:03:46 * Morgan sighs, opening his eyes Apr 11 22:03:51 Thats better Apr 11 22:04:26 * Molly smiles, stroking his hair Apr 11 22:04:28 good Apr 11 22:05:27 * Morgan kisses her belly briefly before getting up Apr 11 22:06:24 * Molly looks up at him Apr 11 22:06:35 You know that is not the difference, don’t you Apr 11 22:06:54 Is it not? Apr 11 22:07:53 No. She could leave, because the Grafdom was never going to be her responsibility, not truly. She didn’t have the same sense of duty. Apr 11 22:09:05 I suppose so Apr 11 22:10:50 Also, her husband already had a place for her, and could support her. There’s no shame in being a Reverend’s Wife for a woman Apr 11 22:11:43 Even if its the wrong faith? Apr 11 22:14:45 I mean for the normal folk, my love. She’s hardly a working girl Apr 11 22:14:55 * Morgan nods Apr 11 22:14:57 I suppose so Apr 11 22:17:08 * Molly watches him “She had different circumstances, my love. You can not punish yourself for not making that same choice.” Apr 11 22:17:59 * Morgan nods a little Apr 11 22:20:57 You will be kind to the man I love, please. He was a man who could not fathom the things that would happen, and he didn’t deserve such suffering. Apr 11 22:21:30 I'll try Apr 11 22:23:09 * Molly takes his hands, kissing his palms Apr 11 22:23:55 * Morgan sighs Apr 11 22:23:59 I'll be alright love Apr 11 22:24:40 I know you will, but that doesn’t mean I do not wish to ease your pain Apr 11 22:24:58 * Morgan nods Apr 11 22:24:59 I know Apr 11 22:28:07 * Molly stands up, squaring her shoulders Apr 11 22:28:27 Alright then, I will go and check myself over Apr 11 22:28:34 * Morgan nods Apr 11 22:28:36 Alright my love Apr 11 22:29:26 * Molly lets go, going into the bathroom Apr 11 22:30:21 * Morgan sits down to wait, tracing the lines of the scarring on his wrists Apr 11 22:31:39 *She’s in there a good few minutes before she comes out, looking more made up and further perfumed Apr 11 22:31:59 * Morgan smiles Apr 11 22:32:44 I hope this goes well Apr 11 22:33:55 * Molly nods Apr 11 22:34:02 I hope so too Apr 11 22:34:45 Theres an awful lot of waiting for things at the moment... Apr 11 22:36:19 * Molly nods Apr 11 22:36:45 The Rosenkrantzs, His Grace, getting the boys settled in the camp Apr 11 22:36:51 * Morgan nods Apr 11 22:37:06 Won't be surprised if Sebastien wants to camp out, since HeinzHarold will be out there Apr 11 22:37:30 * Molly nods Apr 11 22:37:55 You may do so too if you wish, my love, don’t let me hold you back Apr 11 22:38:32 * Morgan shrugs Apr 11 22:39:51 I think it’s better for me to be here in the house, especially with His Grace staying Apr 11 22:40:21 * Morgan nods Apr 11 22:40:26 Aye, I think that a good idea Apr 11 22:41:33 * Molly smiles Apr 11 22:42:10 One day, maybe this summer, you and I can camp out in our special garden Apr 11 22:42:47 * Morgan smiles Apr 11 22:42:49 That'd be nice Apr 11 22:43:38 * Molly nods, smiling Apr 11 22:44:14 we’ll have our hammock..l’ll have my Capperlucian clothes and a massive belly Apr 11 22:45:10 * Morgan nods Apr 11 22:45:16 Sounds wonderful Apr 11 22:45:23 * Molly nods Apr 11 22:46:00 That’s what we can think of when things get rocky, my love. Think of the summer in our home, without all these complications Apr 11 22:46:49 * Morgan nods Apr 11 22:46:52 I'll try Apr 11 22:50:15 * Molly nods. She sends him the image of them in a hammock, naked aside from a sheet covering them hip-down. They’re laughing, and there are little lights in the trees like tiny lanterns. Her belly moves against his flank Apr 11 22:51:11 * Morgan smiles Apr 11 22:51:24 That I can work with Apr 11 22:51:52 * Molly nods Apr 11 22:52:11 We’ll be so very, blissfully, disgustingly happy Apr 11 22:53:44 * Morgan nods Apr 11 22:53:53 Aye, we will Apr 11 22:54:40 * Molly nods “And we’ll be so spent we hope for rain” Apr 11 22:55:09 * Morgan nods Apr 11 22:55:10 yep Apr 11 23:21:09 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 11 23:57:18 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)
