**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Jun 26 01:30:27 2024 Jun 26 01:30:27 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Jun 26 01:31:25 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Jun 26 19:10:22 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Jun 26 19:11:56 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Jun 26 19:13:34 * Molly walks back to the path once her dress is done up Jun 26 19:13:42 will we go to the church now? Jun 26 19:13:54 * Morgan nods Jun 26 19:13:57 Yes, please Jun 26 19:14:13 * Molly nods, walking beside him Jun 26 19:14:32 I suspect you won’t really settle until it’s done Jun 26 19:14:48 No? Jun 26 19:17:37 you do seem very preoccupied Jun 26 19:18:08 * Morgan shrugs Jun 26 19:18:10 I suppose so Jun 26 19:18:41 You do not think so? Jun 26 19:19:14 I don't know really... Jun 26 19:20:21 * Molly nods Jun 26 19:20:44 Maybe you need to ride or train a little? Jun 26 19:21:08 Already trained this morning with Claudia Jun 26 19:22:44 * Molly nods “It seems to really be lingering for you in a way few of your nightmares now do” Jun 26 19:23:23 * Morgan nods Jun 26 19:23:30 aye... it is Jun 26 19:24:22 would you tell me why? Jun 26 19:24:45 I don't know... maybe its Dau... Jun 26 19:27:16 He hasn’t come up in our lives the last few months, perhaps it’s all the bad memories? Jun 26 19:27:56 * Morgan nods Jun 26 19:27:58 Aye, maybe Jun 26 19:29:20 what were you thinking is bothering you about him specifically? Jun 26 19:29:54 I don't know... maybe its witnessing his casual cruelty again... I've seen it enough in various dreams... Jun 26 19:31:56 * Molly nods slowly Jun 26 19:32:32 You feel he escaped too lightly, that -you- let him off the hook somehow? Jun 26 19:32:39 yes. Jun 26 19:33:00 * Molly nods, taking his hand and holding it firmly Jun 26 19:33:04 You did not. Jun 26 19:33:17 * Morgan shrugs Jun 26 19:33:28 He did not suffer so much as he deserved... in -any- instance Jun 26 19:36:09 What would it have brought you, aside from guilt at not upholding the moral standards you endeavour to live by? Jun 26 19:36:52 * Morgan frowns, sighing Jun 26 19:37:35 what, my love? Jun 26 19:38:08 Its not -fair- Jun 26 19:39:04 No, I know Jun 26 19:41:41 * Morgan rolls his shoulders Jun 26 19:43:04 Catherine dictated that he must be returned for the execution, and your duty to Varick and I to be as well and at peace with yourself as you could constrained your actions Jun 26 19:44:29 * Morgan nods Jun 26 19:44:31 I suppose so Jun 26 19:46:28 You could have treated him cruelly as he treated others, but would you have been in the right place to bond with Florrie and give Edward his daughter? Would we have taken in Emil? Would I even be -pregnant-? I doubt it, on all those counts. Jun 26 19:48:03 * Morgan frowns, nodding a little Jun 26 19:49:25 it wasn’t worth the cost. Elsie is happy, and James has found a woman he adores. If -she- can be at peace with her rapist not suffering, I think you might need to try to also? Jun 26 19:49:52 I tried... but I keep being -forced- to see it, experience it. Jun 26 19:50:50 The nightmares are always difficult... would discussing it with Elsie help? Jun 26 19:51:15 No... I will not make her relive that Jun 26 19:53:24 * Molly shakes her head “You needn’t worry, my love. Elsie is -well-. I’ve never known anyone who is so resilient Jun 26 19:54:10 * Morgan shrugs Jun 26 19:56:08 * Molly sighs “I wish I knew how to reach you when these feelings drag you under” Jun 26 20:00:24 * Morgan nods Jun 26 20:00:26 Me too Jun 26 20:06:43 * Molly squeezes gently Jun 26 20:07:38 we aren’t far from the church Jun 26 20:07:51 * Morgan nods Jun 26 20:08:52 I need to speak with Hildegarde when we see her again Jun 26 20:09:34 Oh? Jun 26 20:10:51 in the Capperlucian book there is a table for measuring the top part of the womb and how many weeks pregnant a woman is, roughly. I have had Uinise explain the conversion to inches, but I could do with someone to measure Jun 26 20:11:12 * Morgan nods Jun 26 20:11:13 I see Jun 26 20:11:44 it would be useful for checking the growth of a baby Jun 26 20:12:47 * Morgan nods Jun 26 20:12:52 I can see that'd be the case Jun 26 20:13:01 * Molly nods Jun 26 20:13:18 if you’d like to, you can take my measurement later? Jun 26 20:13:28 * Morgan nods Jun 26 20:13:29 Alright love Jun 26 20:14:00 Or I’ll ask Inga, if you’d prefer not to today Jun 26 20:14:43 No, its fine Jun 26 20:15:23 * Molly nods. They arrive at the pretty Objectionist church Jun 26 20:16:31 * Molly opens the door for him Jun 26 20:16:36 Thank you love Jun 26 20:16:56 * Molly nods, following him in Jun 26 20:17:38 * Morgan glances upward before going to find a candle Jun 26 20:18:09 * Molly sits in the back pew. there’s a little candle wall Jun 26 20:21:13 * Molly doesn’t interrupt him Jun 26 20:22:10 * Morgan goes to the candle wall, lighting the candle before bowing his head for a moment Jun 26 20:22:51 *its quite peaceful Jun 26 20:26:15 * Morgan looks at the candle for a. Moment before going back to Molly Jun 26 20:28:20 * Molly has her eyes closed, hands together Jun 26 20:29:20 * Morgan sits down gently, waiting quietly Jun 26 20:33:49 * Molly opens her eyes, smiling gently Jun 26 20:34:01 Did you light one for Dietlinde and Jana also? Jun 26 20:35:09 * Morgan scowls Jun 26 20:35:14 No... I didn't... Jun 26 20:35:54 we have time Jun 26 20:37:16 * Morgan nods, frowning as he goes to collect a pair of candles Jun 26 20:37:55 * Molly waits patiently, a hand on her bump Jun 26 20:39:01 * Morgan lights them before bowing his head again Jun 26 20:41:44 * Molly gives him all the time he needs Jun 26 20:42:59 * Morgan comes back to her Jun 26 20:43:16 * Molly rubs her bump gently Jun 26 20:43:20 he’s moving Jun 26 20:43:56 * Morgan smiles a little Jun 26 20:44:21 How long before I can feel it? Jun 26 20:48:35 another three or four weeks Jun 26 20:49:33 * Morgan nods Jun 26 20:49:38 Alright Jun 26 20:50:28 it seems like forever? Jun 26 20:50:35 * Morgan nods Jun 26 20:50:37 Yes, it does Jun 26 20:52:21 it’d be a shame to wish the time away though *she gently puts his hand on the right side of her bump* Jun 26 20:54:53 aye Jun 26 20:55:43 * Molly watches him “are you ready, my love? I do not have much left to do before we can go back to the house” Jun 26 20:56:04 * Morgan nods Jun 26 20:56:08 Aye, I'm ready Jun 26 20:57:43 * Molly gets up, and resettles her dress so that her belly is concealed again Jun 26 20:58:32 do you have much you’d still wish to do in town? Jun 26 20:58:43 ummm... no, I don't think so Jun 26 20:59:00 * Molly nods. they go back towards the square Jun 26 20:59:06 Do you feel any better? Jun 26 20:59:39 A bit, yes Jun 26 20:59:49 * Molly smiles Jun 26 21:00:19 Good Jun 26 21:01:02 * Molly stays by his side until they get to the market where she leaves to go to Hildegarde. His party are all still here except DeeDee Jun 26 21:04:15 * Morgan wanders toward them Jun 26 21:05:51 *Edward is holding Florrie’s hand as she looks at the flowers.

Emil is with Alice Jun 26 21:07:02 * Morgan heads toward Alice Jun 26 21:07:46 * Molly is now known as Alice Jun 26 21:08:00 * Alice smiles “How were that family?” Jun 26 21:08:25 * Morgan smiles Jun 26 21:08:42 Very well... thriving, it seems. They're coming by later to have a look at Bir Jun 26 21:09:47 * Alice nods, smiling Jun 26 21:09:54 That must be a big relief Jun 26 21:11:09 * Morgan nods Jun 26 21:11:15 Aye, it is Jun 26 21:12:58 You must be really proud of Molly Jun 26 21:13:21 * Morgan nods Jun 26 21:13:26 Usually am to be honest... Jun 26 21:13:52 It’s special though, isn’t it? Jun 26 21:15:00 Why's that? Jun 26 21:15:37 Saving a baby’s life? I’d be so proud Jun 26 21:16:32 * Morgan smiles, looking around Jun 26 21:16:46 And Elsie, and Thomas, and me on more than one occasion... Jun 26 21:17:23 * Alice nods, smiling Jun 26 21:18:13 *Emil plants his face between Alice’s breasts* Jun 26 21:19:02 * Morgan chuckles Jun 26 21:19:09 Are you hungry young man?

Emil, however, sobs like the world is ending, and immediately she’s sympathetic and holding out her hands for him Jun 26 21:25:53 * Morgan smiles, handing him over Jun 26 21:25:59 What an actor Jun 26 21:26:52 * Molly rocks him Jun 26 21:27:00 H: Rickon was like that Jun 26 21:28:20 * Morgan nods Jun 26 21:28:27 Apparently both I and my brother were too Jun 26 21:29:49 *Emil seems to settle just being close to her chest* Jun 26 21:30:15 I think I’ll take him back now, my love. it’s not long until lunch Jun 26 21:30:48 * Morgan nods Jun 26 21:30:50 Alright love Jun 26 21:32:53 * Molly says goodbye to Hildegarde before going over to Inga and Mina. Hildegarde watches her before looking to Morgan Jun 26 21:33:18 Do you have some happy news to share? Jun 26 21:33:26 What makes you think so? Jun 26 21:35:24 * Molly is now known as Hildegarde Jun 26 21:35:34 I’m not sure Jun 26 21:36:20 Just a hunch? Jun 26 21:36:36 * Hildegarde nods Jun 26 21:37:31 I wonder why... Jun 26 21:38:25 The way she moves, maybe. Maybe I’m wrong Jun 26 21:38:42 No... Jun 26 21:39:44 * Hildegarde smiles Jun 26 21:39:47 really?! Jun 26 21:40:06 We're trying to keep it quiet until I can tell Sascha and Otto... Jun 26 21:41:03 * Hildegarde nods Jun 26 21:41:19 I won’t say anything, but I am -so- pleased for you Jun 26 21:41:30 * Morgan smiles Jun 26 21:41:42 Thank you. Jun 26 21:43:34 when are you due?

With Molly, right now Jun 26 21:49:56 * Morgan nods Jun 26 21:50:06 We found out about... a week and a half ago Jun 26 21:52:14 * Hildegarde smiles “some people do have concealed pregnancies. I’ve known a couple who didn’t know until they were in labour” Jun 26 21:52:23 * Morgan nods Jun 26 21:52:51 We thought the usual signs were just the result of what we were doing at the time, and the effects of the herbs she had taken Jun 26 21:53:47 * Hildegarde nods “it must have been a huge surprise “ Jun 26 21:54:31 * Morgan nods Jun 26 21:54:32 Massive Jun 26 21:56:31 Has she felt the baby? It was about this point with Rickon, but two weeks earlier this time. Jun 26 21:57:27 * Morgan nods Jun 26 21:57:40 Day before yesterday Jun 26 21:58:53 * Hildegarde nods smiling Jun 26 21:59:14 It”s lovely when it first happens. They say it gets earlier with every pregnancy Jun 26 21:59:57 Huh...
