**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Jun 19 17:53:19 2024 Jun 19 17:53:19 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Jun 19 17:56:05 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Jun 19 17:56:35 * Molly pours him some, and makes space beside her. DeeDee is stood talking with Edward and James, HH, Ma, Ruth, Inga and Elsie are chatting too, Walder Theresa and Jacques have gone* Jun 19 17:56:35 [I must be doing a very good job then] Jun 19 17:56:35 * Morgan sits down, sipping his drink Jun 19 17:56:35 [indeed] Jun 19 17:56:35 Mina: What will you be doing tomorrow, Morgan? It seems Molly has a busy day planned for herself Jun 19 17:56:37 I'm not actually sure... Jun 19 17:56:39 I thought I would go to the market, visit the family whose children were so poorly in December, look over the books with Heinrich, and then cook dinner Jun 19 17:56:43 You want to cook dinner... Jun 19 17:56:45 * Molly smiles Jun 19 17:56:47 It has been a long time since I’ve been able to do so Jun 19 17:56:49 You know our staff would stand aside if you wished to cook... Jun 19 17:56:51 Of course, but here I know the kitchen already from when we have stayed before Jun 19 17:56:53 * Morgan nods Jun 19 17:56:57 I've cooked in Hafenlohr... Jun 19 17:56:59 * Molly nods, smiling Jun 19 17:57:01 You are a good cook... *she smiles, sending him the image of her sat in his lap in their first cottage kissing, the first time they’d gone so far, the day she first made this for him* How about blackberry crumble? Jun 19 17:57:02 * Morgan nods, smiling Jun 19 17:57:04 That'd be lovely Jun 19 17:57:06 * Molly nods Jun 19 17:57:08 Very well, my love Jun 19 17:57:49 *Ma comes over* Jun 19 17:57:53 * Molly is now known as Ma Jun 19 17:58:04 I’m very happy for you, Morgan Jun 19 17:59:57 * Morgan smiles, moving so she can sit Jun 19 18:00:06 Thank you... Jun 19 18:00:45 when do you expect? Jun 19 18:01:20 Sometime mid september Jun 19 18:02:02 * Ma nods “That’s good, you’ll already be in Sudlachenburg then” Jun 19 18:04:13 * Morgan nods Jun 19 18:04:16 Aye, we will Jun 19 18:05:18 Molly: I think they will come nice and early in the month. That is my preference Jun 19 18:05:33 *Mina watches Morgan gently* Jun 19 18:08:23 * Morgan nods a little Jun 19 18:08:27 We can hope Jun 19 18:12:02 I went two weeks over with Heinzharold. He was such a huge baby Jun 19 18:15:19 Cant say that surprises me Jun 19 18:15:43 Molly: I don’t mind going that far over Jun 19 18:16:29 * Ma smiles “you will if you do. I was so huge I could barely get out of bed” Jun 19 18:17:18 * Morgan smiles Jun 19 18:17:33 I'll look after her if she does Jun 19 18:21:34 [I’ll be holding you to. that...] Jun 19 18:21:55 * Ma nods, smiling “Are you wanting a boy?” Jun 19 18:22:13 [do I not always look after you?] Jun 19 18:22:39 It'd sort any worries about the succession... and, I think, it'd be a bit easier... Jun 19 18:23:06 [ yes, but I was being suggestive] Jun 19 18:23:16 [so was I] Jun 19 18:23:59 * Ma nods “Edward’s daughter looks like Jana. Possible you’d have another that does” Jun 19 18:24:55 Possible, yes... not likely, though Jun 19 18:25:09 [you take care of me very well, but when I am so very pregnant I imagine you’ll struggle to concentrate on anything else!] Jun 19 18:25:43 *Mina is all polite and courtly demeanour* Jun 19 18:31:26 do you have any names in mind for the babe? Jun 19 18:32:11 I was thinking Betty for a girl and Stormageddon for a boy Jun 19 18:32:28 * Ma smiles “very nice” Jun 19 18:32:43 *Molly giggles* Jun 19 18:32:47 * Morgan chuckles Jun 19 18:32:55 Got a few ideas Jun 19 18:33:39 I want Heinzharold to use a name from the Holy Book if they have a girl, like his sisters Jun 19 18:35:18 * Morgan nods Jun 19 18:35:27 Have to wait and see what comes along Jun 19 18:35:45 it’s taking them a while Jun 19 18:36:38 Its never as quick as people want though Jun 19 18:37:02 *Mina stands, excusing herself* Jun 19 18:37:44 it was for Da and me. if it wasn’t for the Navy we’d had had twenty no doubt Jun 19 18:38:08 * Morgan nods, looking over to HeinzHarold Jun 19 18:38:19 $get my brother to go check on his wife would you?$ Jun 19 18:38:57 *HH speaks to Edward. Mina is headed their way* Jun 19 18:39:23 The world can only handle so much wonderful though Jun 19 18:39:36 * Ma smiles Jun 19 18:39:57 it’d have been nice to have more boys to carry on his name Jun 19 18:40:28 I don't really think you need to worry about that overmuch Jun 19 18:40:59 As long as they give me some grandsons it’ll keep going Jun 19 18:41:51 * Morgan smiles Jun 19 18:41:55 I have faith that will come to pass Jun 19 18:45:24 * Ma nods Jun 19 18:49:02 They’ll have beautiful babes Jun 19 18:49:27 * Morgan smiles Jun 19 18:49:29 obviously Jun 19 18:51:40 * Ma smiles “Ruth and I are going to bed. Goodnight” Jun 19 18:52:04 * Morgan smiles, kissing her cheek Jun 19 18:52:07 Night Ma Jun 19 18:53:51 * Ma looks happy as she goes to Ruth and they finish saying goodnight to everyone. HH, Inga, Elsie, James, Mina, Edward, and DeeDee are still present for him to chat with if he wishes Jun 19 18:54:24 * Morgan watches the others for a moment before getting up and going to DeeDee Jun 19 18:55:48 * Ma is now known as DeeDee Jun 19 18:57:09 * Morgan nudges him gently Jun 19 18:57:13 Can I talk to you? Jun 19 18:59:18 Of course, my Lord Jun 19 18:59:43 * Morgan moves into the hallway Jun 19 19:02:32 * DeeDee follows him Jun 19 19:03:36 * Morgan looks at him Jun 19 19:03:41 I feel I owe you an apology Jun 19 19:04:16 why, my Lord? Jun 19 19:05:07 Rather sprung our announcement on you... Jun 19 19:07:33 * DeeDee smiles a little “You must be very excited” Jun 19 19:08:14 * Morgan nods Jun 19 19:08:16 Excessively Jun 19 19:09:00 * DeeDee nods “it’s happy news” Jun 19 19:09:12 * Morgan nods Jun 19 19:09:17 But it must be difficult for you Jun 19 19:12:15 At the moment it isn’t Jun 19 19:12:33 Oh? Why? Jun 19 19:14:31 * DeeDee takes out his pipe Jun 19 19:14:55 My memory of that day has lost its clarity Jun 19 19:15:06 interesting... how are you sleeping? Jun 19 19:15:35 On both nights since I have slept very well Jun 19 19:15:50 * Morgan nods Jun 19 19:15:51 Good Jun 19 19:17:10 * DeeDee nods Jun 19 19:17:40 I know what happened, but it’s very hazy for me, even when I’ve tried Jun 19 19:17:53 How do you feel about that? Jun 19 19:20:23 Relieved. I am able to appreciate the tragedy without being consumed by it Jun 19 19:20:44 * Morgan nods, sipping his blokners Jun 19 19:20:48 I'm pleased to hear that Jun 19 19:23:11 * DeeDee nods Jun 19 19:23:20 How long it will last, I couldn’t say Jun 19 19:23:33 It -should- be permanent Jun 19 19:23:57 I will hope for that to be the case, my Lord Jun 19 19:26:26 * Morgan nods Jun 19 19:26:36 As will I, though I suspect it unnecessary Jun 19 19:27:04 * DeeDee nods Jun 19 19:27:21 How is Claudia, my Lord? I get the feeling she is avoiding me Jun 19 19:28:09 Between you and I,she is. She's... uncomfortable. But she'll be pleased you're doing better Jun 19 19:28:56 * DeeDee frowns Jun 19 19:29:05 I hope I have not given her offence Jun 19 19:29:20 No, you haven't, not at all Jun 19 19:30:46 * DeeDee nods Jun 19 19:31:24 Something regrettable happened whilst she was helping me, though I did my best to prevent her feeling it Jun 19 19:32:00 I noticed you trying to shove your hips backward into the ground, yes... Jun 19 19:33:13 * DeeDee nods, looking a little ashamed of himself “I usually have much better self control” Jun 19 19:33:26 * Morgan glances around Jun 19 19:33:40 Difficult when a beautiful woman you've had a thing for for years is kissing you... its understandable Jun 19 19:34:34 * DeeDee nods “It is, but I know she doesn’t feel the same” Jun 19 19:36:05 * Morgan nods slightly, sipping his drink Jun 19 19:37:03 Should I apologise? Jun 19 19:37:22 No... no, I think it best just to let it lie Jun 19 19:40:50 * DeeDee nods Jun 19 19:41:11 Thank you, would you like some of this? *he lifts the pipe* Jun 19 19:41:27 * Morgan smiles, shaking his head Jun 19 19:41:30 No, thank you Jun 19 19:43:37 * DeeDee nods Jun 19 19:43:55 I’ll bid you good night then Jun 19 19:44:58 * Morgan nods, patting his arm before going back to the others Jun 19 19:48:14 *Elsie seems to be waiting for him* Jun 19 19:48:19 * DeeDee is now known as Elsie Jun 19 19:49:27 * Morgan looks at her Jun 19 19:49:30 You alright love? Jun 19 19:51:00 * Elsie nods, smiling Jun 19 19:51:21 I’m really happy for you! I didn’t realise you were hoping for another baby Jun 19 19:52:41 Thomas and Florrie can take most of the credit for it Jun 19 19:53:00 why? Jun 19 19:54:47 I avoided children, particularly really young ones... once I discovered Florrie, I couldn't do that... Alice says she's never taken to anyone the way se took to me, and I couldn't hurt her by pushing her away... then, once we were back... she and little Thomas just reminded me how much I -loved- being a father Jun 19 19:56:40 * Elsie smiles Jun 19 19:57:03 That’s really nice. I’m glad so much good came from what that man did to me Jun 19 19:57:35 * Morgan closes his eyes briefly before nodding Jun 19 19:58:04 I'm glad we found you... I'm glad you decided to give trusting me a try Jun 19 19:59:49 I’m glad you cared enough to save us Jun 19 20:02:10 God, I'm glad we -could- Jun 19 20:03:31 * Elsie nods Jun 19 20:03:42 Nothing short of a miracle Jun 19 20:04:13 * Morgan smiles Jun 19 20:05:09 Were you pleased when you found out? Jun 19 20:06:05 I was annoyed we hadn't realised sooner Jun 19 20:10:16 how long have you known? Jun 19 20:10:39 Uhhh... just over a week now Jun 19 20:10:49 * Elsie laughs Jun 19 20:11:03 How did you miss it? She has a little belly already Jun 19 20:12:04 She was taking herbs to prevent pregnancy, and they messed with her courses... she's still had minor courses, so we assumed it was the herbs still messing with her body... and she thought perhaps she was just putting on weight Jun 19 20:13:07 It’ll make it much quicker to wait for the birth now though Jun 19 20:13:26 We've missed a fair amount of time though Jun 19 20:15:39 Is that bad? The first bit isn’t very exciting Jun 19 20:15:57 * Morgan clears his throat, blushing a little Jun 19 20:16:01 Well, yeah, you're right Jun 19 20:16:59 [are you alright?] Jun 19 20:17:07 [yes love, why?] Jun 19 20:17:31 Once he moved, then I felt I could bond with him. Before that I just felt sick and tired Jun 19 20:17:46 [you looked a little uncomfortable is all] Jun 19 20:18:14 [Elsie just asked if it was bad that we missed the first few months, thats all] Jun 19 20:18:20 * Morgan nods Jun 19 20:18:49 We've just reached one of my favourite stages... I can just about hear the heartbeat Jun 19 20:18:56 [you are sad about it?] Jun 19 20:19:14 [well... sort of] Jun 19 20:19:19 * Elsie smiles “That’s lovely. James did that often with Thomas” Jun 19 20:19:43 [mostly because you couldn’t smell it on me?] Jun 19 20:21:16 * Morgan nods Jun 19 20:21:36 I like being able to tap on her belly and feel the baby chasing it... that won't be too long now... Jun 19 20:21:59 * Elsie nods Jun 19 20:22:23 What do you like most? Jun 19 20:22:55 Probably the heart beat... I could listen to it all day Jun 19 20:25:34 * Elsie nods Jun 19 20:25:48 I very happy for you both, you really deserve it Jun 19 20:26:14 Thank you love. Are you nervous about the wedding? Jun 19 20:27:15 * Elsie shakes her head Jun 19 20:27:56 No, I want to see Molly again tomorrow just to be absolutely sure it’s right and safe to proceed, but mostly I’m just looking forward to it Jun 19 20:29:27 * Morgan nods Jun 19 20:30:00 I know I can't be Thomas' godfather but... you do know I would make sure he's safe if anything happened, right? Jun 19 20:30:43 * Elsie nods Jun 19 20:30:56 If it wasn’t for the religion, I’d have asked you Jun 19 20:31:18 * Morgan nods, smiling a little Jun 19 20:31:29 Has Karlsruhe come around to it? Jun 19 20:31:56 * Elsie nods Jun 19 20:32:19 He seems to have. He likes holding Thomas, I think it reminds him of his own children Jun 19 20:33:13 * Morgan nods Jun 19 20:35:35 Sometimes there’s a space in a family that can be filled by someone who has lost theirs, and Karlsruhe and I have that in common. Jun 19 20:36:21 * Morgan nods Jun 19 20:36:28 You have family again now Jun 19 20:36:50 * Elsie nods Jun 19 20:37:22 I have James and my in-laws, and all of you. I’m never going to be alone again *she smiles* Jun 19 20:38:11 No, you won't be. And Thomas will have other children around too Jun 19 20:39:08 * Elsie nods Jun 19 20:39:42 He’s only six months younger than Emil, and will only be ten months older than your baby Jun 19 20:40:20 * Morgan nods Jun 19 20:42:08 *James comes over, offering his only hand to shake Morgan’s* Jun 19 20:42:32 * Morgan shakes it Jun 19 20:44:05 J: Congratulations, Morgan Jun 19 20:44:17 * Morgan smiles Jun 19 20:44:20 Thank you James Jun 19 20:46:24 J: It’s the best job in the world Jun 19 20:46:35 [My love, I am retiring] Jun 19 20:46:43 [alright love] Jun 19 20:46:51 * Morgan nods Jun 19 20:46:53 That it is Jun 19 20:50:13 *Molly comes to say goodnight to them, her hand gently caressing his lower back as she talks to them* Jun 19 20:54:45 * Morgan looks an arm around her waist, stroking her flank Jun 19 20:55:40 *they say goodnight, Molly blushing a little. He can see how she breathes fast* [That tickles a little...] Jun 19 20:55:55 [oh... sorry] Jun 19 20:58:23 [no, it’s nice but... you know how tickling can affect me] Jun 19 20:58:41 [indeed I do] Jun 19 20:59:30 [are you coming to bed with me?] Jun 19 20:59:47 [In a moment. I want to check on Mina] Jun 19 21:00:01 Love, Elsie was hoping she could speak to you tomorrow... Jun 19 21:02:21 *Molly smiles* Of course, Elsie. I will be in and out all day, there are many things I wish to get done here, but I will make 5e time for you Jun 19 21:04:11 * Morgan gently tickles her flank Jun 19 21:06:15 *Molly makes a sudden sharp inhale through her nose as Elsie thanks her. She watches Morgan a brief moment before she rubs her bump* “I should get this one to bed...” Jun 19 21:06:26 * Morgan nods Jun 19 21:06:30 I'll be along soon love Jun 19 21:08:24 *Molly smiles, nodding before she moves away* Jun 19 21:09:36 *Mina is sat talking to Edward by the fire. Their closeness is no more than is decent, but he can see from the angles they sit at and the little gestures that they make that they would prefer less distance* Jun 19 21:10:26 * Morgan excuses himself from James and Elsie, moving toward Edward and Mina Jun 19 21:11:25 *Edward smiles* Brother, all is well? Jun 19 21:11:28 * Elsie is now known as Mina Jun 19 21:12:19 * Morgan nods Jun 19 21:12:58 I'll be retiring in a moment... I was wondering if my sister might be so kind as to give me a hug Jun 19 21:13:32 * Mina stands up “I will” Jun 19 21:14:00 E: She was telling me that she introduced you to a new word recently... Jun 19 21:14:07 Oh really? Jun 19 21:14:35 * Mina hugs him, and she whispers “Cockstand” in his ear Jun 19 21:14:52 * Morgan smiles, hugging her gently, speaking exceptionally quietly Jun 19 21:15:20 I know its difficult right now. I'm so proud of you. This hug doesn't do justice to how fiercely we love you Jun 19 21:16:02 * Mina whispers back “My time is coming, I know. Soon I will also be rounded by a Koertig heir” Jun 19 21:16:29 * Morgan nods a little, kissing her cheek briefly before letting go and looking at Edward Jun 19 21:16:49 Oh... yes, she did... she demonstrated its appropriate use quite firmly Jun 19 21:17:31 E: I doubt you intended that to come out quite as it did, brother! Jun 19 21:17:43 Edward! Jun 19 21:18:00 *Edward is smirking* Jun 19 21:18:36 * Morgan shrugs a little Jun 19 21:18:46 I'm not responsible for how your mind interpreted that Jun 19 21:19:57 Edward nods: We will see you in the morning Jun 19 21:21:24 * Morgan nods Jun 19 21:21:40 Noones going to think less of you if you sit together or even hold hands... Jun 19 21:23:11 * Mina smiles Jun 19 21:23:29 Sometimes the formalities are a present precursor Jun 19 21:23:43 * Morgan nods Jun 19 21:23:59 As long as it is not that you do not feel comfortable here. I'll see you both in the morning Jun 19 21:24:36 *they say goodnight Jun 19 21:25:03 * Morgan inclines his head before moving for the door Jun 19 21:25:51 *He doesn’t get interrupted Jun 19 21:26:23 * Morgan heads up to his bedroom Jun 19 21:27:41 * Mina is now known as Molly Jun 19 21:28:00 * Molly looks like she’s barely arrived, only her shoes off Jun 19 21:28:07 is Mina well? Jun 19 21:28:34 * Morgan nods Jun 19 21:28:49 She is... its just difficult for her, wanting so much to be with child already Jun 19 21:28:55 * Molly nods Jun 19 21:28:59 soon... Jun 19 21:29:12 * Molly starts to undress Jun 19 21:31:01 * Morgan pauses to watch her Jun 19 21:31:23 * Molly smiles, going slower and watching him as she does so Jun 19 21:31:36 Was there more you wished to say? Jun 19 21:31:59 Hmmm? Jun 19 21:33:11 You were talking about Mina Jun 19 21:34:07 Oh... yes... she'll be alright Jun 19 21:34:20 * Molly drops the bodice and then overskirt to the floor, revealing her chemise with the marked petticoat over it Jun 19 21:34:39 I am sure she will. Which day are they to leave? Jun 19 21:34:42 * Morgan smiles, watching her Jun 19 21:34:51 ummm... I don't recall... Monday I think Jun 19 21:36:08 * Molly nods, untying the petticoat and letting it fall Jun 19 21:36:32 Except, that is Matthias baptism... is your mind elsewhere, my love? Jun 19 21:36:42 Oh...well, not then then Jun 19 21:38:08 No... *she gathers the chemise, and pulls it up and off* Jun 19 21:38:47 * Morgan licks his lips, watching her Jun 19 21:39:35 * Molly moves out of the tangle of clothes, completely naked Jun 19 21:39:52 How have you found the evening, my love? Jun 19 21:40:58 * Morgan nods Jun 19 21:41:12 Its been pleasant Jun 19 21:42:03 you did start it very relaxed... Jun 19 21:42:13 I did, yes Jun 19 21:43:18 * Molly smiles, unpinning her hair Jun 19 21:43:28 are you still so relaxed? Jun 19 21:44:00 sadly... no Jun 19 21:45:06 sadly? *She smiles* oh dear, why is that, my love? Jun 19 21:45:54 * Morgan shrugs a little Jun 19 21:45:56 Doesn't matter love Jun 19 21:46:13 * Molly frowns a little Jun 19 21:46:34 wait... we are not talking about the same thing, I think Jun 19 21:46:42 no... I'm afraid not Jun 19 21:47:15 * Molly nods, picking up arobe Jun 19 21:47:28 do you wish to discuss what troubles you? Jun 19 21:48:31 No... no I don't think so Jun 19 21:48:55 * Molly nods, wrapping up in the navy satin Jun 19 21:49:02 alright, my love Jun 19 21:49:31 * Morgan smiles a little, getting undressed Jun 19 21:50:31 * Molly spends a few minutes removing her make up and preparing for bed before removing the robe and getting in Jun 19 21:51:09 * Morgan gets in, quickly moving to press his body to hers Jun 19 21:52:13 * Molly noticeably relaxes. She says it with such pleasure and wonder when she whispers “you need me again?” Jun 19 21:52:27 * Morgan nods Jun 19 21:52:29 I do Jun 19 21:53:11 I did wear perfume to spare you... *she smiles, kissing his throat* Jun 19 21:54:39 I'm afraid you were always onto a loser with that plan Jun 19 21:54:45 oh Jun 19 21:54:48 ? Jun 19 21:55:08 * Morgan nods Jun 19 21:55:19 * Molly moves to the side of his neck with gentle warm kisses Jun 19 21:55:29 why is that? Jun 19 21:57:20 * Morgan moans a little Jun 19 21:59:23 * Molly takes his hand, putting it on her belly Jun 19 21:59:28 is it this? Jun 19 21:59:35 Might be Jun 19 22:00:16 mmhmm... I do not mind. has it been tormenting you? *she sucks gently* Jun 19 22:00:33 * Morgan nods Jun 19 22:00:35 It has Jun 19 22:01:42 * Molly licks his skin “good... I like that. it only seems fair when I yearn for you so much too” Jun 19 22:02:50 * Morgan nods Jun 19 22:02:54 I suppose it is Jun 19 22:03:12 what would most please you?
