Jul 29 19:32:36 Jul 28 23:33:01 * Edward looks at him “With all the love in the world, my brother, I do not want to get into this. I ask that you give me time to deal with my own response. Jul 29 19:32:36 Jul 28 23:34:05 * Morgan does respond, just moves his horse away and slows down Jul 29 19:32:36 Jul 28 23:35:13 * Edward continues to ride on as he was Jul 29 19:32:38 Jul 28 23:35:34 * Morgan waits until he's at the back of the procession Jul 29 19:32:40 Jul 28 23:35:46 *he soon is* Jul 29 19:32:42 Jul 28 23:36:11 * Morgan rides quietly, looking around Jul 29 19:32:44 Jul 28 23:38:07 *it’s peaceful, but the procession takes the route past the turnings to the clearing where Martha and David now live instead of him, Dietlinde and Jana * Jul 29 19:32:47 Jul 28 23:38:45 * Morgan just plods along quietly Jul 29 19:32:49 Jul 28 23:40:26 *their little party gets back on the grounds and to the family chapel. Edward is helping the women and children out* Jul 29 19:32:54 Jul 28 23:40:45 * Morgan hands off his horse to a groom before standing out of the way Jul 29 19:32:56 Jul 28 23:42:51 *Grendlik comes over carrying his son* Thank you for agreeing to be godfather. After everything the three of you did to help see Matthias into the world it seemed fitting Jul 29 19:32:59 Jul 28 23:43:15 * Morgan shakes his head Jul 29 19:33:01 Jul 28 23:43:19 its our honour Jul 29 19:33:03 Jul 28 23:44:29 *Grendlik smiles at the sleeping baby* There is nothing more precious than a child Jul 29 19:33:05 Jul 28 23:44:46 no... there isn't Jul 29 19:33:07 Jul 28 23:46:49 *Grendlik looks to where Jarvie is chatting with Uinise and Claudia, and he smiles* She’s been looking forward to this day for a long time Jul 29 19:33:10 Jul 28 23:47:01 escaping from my father? Jul 29 19:33:12 Jul 28 23:47:50 * Edward is now known as Grendlik Jul 29 19:33:14 Jul 28 23:47:59 Yes, my Lord Jul 29 19:33:16 Jul 28 23:48:28 * Morgan nods Jul 29 19:33:18 Jul 28 23:48:32 I'm not surprised Jul 29 19:33:20 Jul 28 23:49:10 She’s happy now that he has been weaned to the wet nurse and she has her body back Jul 29 19:33:25 Jul 28 23:49:59 * Morgan nods Jul 29 19:33:27 Jul 28 23:50:13 What are your plans while she is off sailing the fastest ship afloat? Jul 29 19:33:29 Jul 28 23:52:23 Overseeing cargo from the docks and managing my investments at the orphanage. I may buy another ship Jul 29 19:33:32 Jul 28 23:52:36 oh really? Jul 29 19:33:34 Jul 28 23:54:12 I am considering it. I am not in a rush, Fatherhood is my priority Jul 29 19:33:36 Jul 28 23:54:26 * Morgan nods Jul 29 19:33:38 Jul 28 23:54:50 You will relish that Jul 29 19:34:48 * Molly is now known as Grendlik Jul 29 19:35:05 I will Jul 29 19:36:35 * Morgan nods, watching the others Jul 29 19:39:19 *the family all gather into the chapel when just over ten months ago Morgan married the woman whose bump is now proudly carried in her fitted dress. Emil is with Verity and Christopher, Varick and Jacques with Heinzharold and Inga. Jarvie and Grendlik stand at the front with their son, their wet nurse quiet Jul 29 19:39:38 quietly sat in the pews too Jul 29 19:40:27 * Morgan quietly finds his place Jul 29 19:44:35 *Molly and Edward are stood beside him. She smiles fondly at him as the baptism gets underway, it’s the same priest that married he and Molly* Jul 29 19:45:43 * Morgan takes her hand, standing quietly Jul 29 19:47:37 *As part of his duties as Godfather, Morgan has to promise to guide, support, and watch over Matthias* Jul 29 19:47:49 * Morgan nods, promising to Jul 29 19:51:01 *Molly has to take Matthias from Morgan, which she does with a smile. It means she has to get close, and he catches a hint of that scent of her. She seems focused on the infant in his arms [soon...] Jul 29 19:51:32 [just a few months] Jul 29 19:53:04 * Grendlik holds the baby, making the same promises, and then Edward does it. He looks quite proud, and promises those things Jul 29 19:53:11 *Molly Jul 29 19:54:23 * Morgan watches them quietly Jul 29 19:57:36 *The priest follows the process, and the family clap. Then it is time for Jarvie to be given the Churching blessing, and she kneels in front of the priest to get it, and then takes communion first, as is the normal for the woman being Churched regardless of her standing. Grendlik helps her up, smiling Jul 29 19:58:11 [and now they are traditionally free to resume love-making...] Jul 29 19:58:35 [like that will have made any difference...] Jul 29 19:59:36 [just as it won’t to us, hmm?] Jul 29 20:00:22 [I couldn't possibly comment] Jul 29 20:01:12 *they clap for Jarvie, and then they are invited to make personal prayers* Jul 29 20:02:44 * Morgan quietly does so Jul 29 20:04:21 *the others do likewise, then line up for Communion. Being his Grafdom, Adalbrecht and Verity go first, so he has to queue behind them. Verity quietly says “That was lovely, wasn’t it, dear boy?” Jul 29 20:04:40 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:04:42 It was mother Jul 29 20:08:47 V: I think your Father would have liked to be a Godfather, but we are not getting any younger... Jul 29 20:09:04 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:09:10 Is he not godfather to Jarvie? Jul 29 20:11:09 V: No, he isn’t. Hans and Mathilde wanted him to be, but he was deployed at the time Jul 29 20:11:25 oh... that is sad Jul 29 20:12:02 *She nods* He was very upset. He was Alarice’s though, rest her soul. Jul 29 20:12:36 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:13:52 *Verity takes her turn, then it’s Morgan’s turn* Jul 29 20:17:05 * Morgan does as he's supposed to Jul 29 20:18:32 *Molly follows, passing close by. She also kneels, sipping the wine before opening her mouth for the priest to put the wafer in it* Jul 29 20:18:50 * Morgan glances at her before purposefully looking away Jul 29 20:20:34 *This means he catches Inga’s eye, and she smiles at him* Jul 29 20:21:05 * Morgan smiles a little Jul 29 20:22:15 *The rest of them get done, Grendlik thanks the priest, and they all head outside* Jul 29 20:22:48 Ad: We have refreshments in the garden Jul 29 20:22:58 Probably some in the house too... Jul 29 20:23:36 Ve: There are, but we thought you’d prefer to all sit outside Jul 29 20:23:47 * Grendlik is now known as Molly Jul 29 20:24:28 * Molly takes Emil back from Heinzharold, and the baby looks even more happy at seeing her face Jul 29 20:24:42 * Morgan nods, looking around Jul 29 20:26:06 *Adalbrecht leads the way, and the others follow, except for the boys who run on ahead* Jul 29 20:26:18 * Molly smiles, Emil on her hip Jul 29 20:26:28 I am collecting Godchildren, it seems! Jul 29 20:27:04 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:27:07 It seems so Jul 29 20:28:48 * Molly smiles, glancing at Jarvie and Grendlik Jul 29 20:28:58 I think it turned out very well Jul 29 20:29:18 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:29:23 Yes, I think so Jul 29 20:31:32 *very quietly* Strange to think though... If Alarice hadn’t stolen her black and white hellebore, she would have ended it and none of us would ever have known... Jul 29 20:32:10 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:32:20 How different it could have all been Jul 29 20:32:25 * Molly nods Jul 29 20:32:52 You and I would have continued as we were... and it was quite the turning point for you and Edward... Jul 29 20:33:02 * Morgan nods slightly Jul 29 20:33:04 aye Jul 29 20:35:16 Stef and Kristoff would not be having a baby... Jul 29 20:35:26 No... I suppose not Jul 29 20:37:50 They weren’t behaving in a manner that results in a child Jul 29 20:38:18 No, they weren't Jul 29 20:39:42 Then they were, thanks to you Jul 29 20:39:52 * Morgan nods a little Jul 29 20:41:23 * Molly smiles Jul 29 20:41:30 I wonder what she’ll have Jul 29 20:48:30 Probably a baby Jul 29 20:49:12 * Molly giggles Jul 29 20:49:17 I meant the sex Jul 29 20:50:20 I would imagine they still have some of that, yes Jul 29 20:50:44 * Molly laughs Jul 29 20:50:57 but much less, with a newborn? Jul 29 20:51:08 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:51:09 Quite so Jul 29 20:51:25 I -do not- look forward to that! Jul 29 20:51:33 No... me either Jul 29 20:51:49 * Molly smiles Jul 29 20:51:58 you’re happy at we are? Jul 29 20:52:09 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:52:10 Indeed Jul 29 20:52:35 good. I hope your worries have been allayed Jul 29 20:52:50 Worries? Jul 29 20:53:08 about being a nuisance Jul 29 20:53:45 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:53:47 aye Jul 29 20:54:17 * Molly smiles Jul 29 20:54:22 wonderful Jul 29 20:54:43 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:55:29 * Molly looks around before smiling Jul 29 20:55:50 you are fine for now? no summerhouse? Jul 29 20:56:05 For the moment, yes Jul 29 20:56:58 how was your night? Jul 29 20:57:40 * Morgan sighs Jul 29 20:57:41 Not good Jul 29 20:58:14 oh! I’m sorry, I wouldn’t have woken you that way had I known Jul 29 20:58:35 * Morgan shakes his head Jul 29 20:58:51 It was enjoyable Jul 29 20:59:01 * Molly smiles, nodding Jul 29 20:59:23 your pendant seems to protect you from getting stuck Jul 29 20:59:34 * Morgan nods Jul 29 20:59:39 It does, yes Jul 29 20:59:51 I do not miss those dreams Jul 29 20:59:59 though... I only got stuck in dreams of Dietlinde... Jul 29 21:00:21 * Molly nods Jul 29 21:00:49 And now you do not seem to dream of her very much Jul 29 21:01:15 No... not a great deal Jul 29 21:01:30 is that a relief? Jul 29 21:02:30 I cant say the one I'm having recently is -that- much easier Jul 29 21:02:41 which one? Jul 29 21:02:57 Where I had married Mina... Jul 29 21:03:36 have you met Dietlinde or I? Jul 29 21:03:52 No... Jul 29 21:04:36 that would be trouble, I think Jul 29 21:04:48 Oh probably Jul 29 21:05:48 are you still at War? what happened to Dau? Jul 29 21:06:01 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:07:02 He'd been shipped off to the admiralty while we tried to make things better in the village... then we moved on... one morning I get a note saying Mina is with child... I was given some leave to see her but then it all kicked off and I wasn't able to... Jul 29 21:07:20 Oh that’s unfortunate Jul 29 21:07:30 * Morgan nods a little Jul 29 21:07:46 Moreso when I got the note saying she had fallen from a horse and lost the child... Jul 29 21:08:10 * Molly takes his hand Jul 29 21:08:16 I am so sorry Jul 29 21:08:39 * Morgan nods, looking around Jul 29 21:09:04 *theyve fallen behind* Jul 29 21:11:35 I will never be riding whilst pregnant, will I? Jul 29 21:11:44 No. I'm sorry, but no. Jul 29 21:12:12 * Molly nods sadly Jul 29 21:13:06 I understand, but I do miss it Jul 29 21:13:10 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:13:12 I know Jul 29 21:13:41 will you warn Edward? Jul 29 21:13:58 Imagine so Jul 29 21:14:21 it’ll be hard to explain though? Jul 29 21:14:35 * Morgan shrugs Jul 29 21:14:47 I don't intend to explain it Jul 29 21:15:49 * Molly nods Jul 29 21:16:08 what happened next, was Mina hurt? Jul 29 21:16:35 She was going to be alright... Jul 29 21:17:50 * Molly nods Jul 29 21:18:06 that would be a relief Jul 29 21:18:15 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:18:40 Fuchs and I were summoned to the admiralty again to report... they decided another six months and they'd look at my rank again Jul 29 21:19:14 * Molly smiles Jul 29 21:19:23 would that take you to Captain? Jul 29 21:19:44 Assuming they choose to promote me, yes Jul 29 21:20:31 If they have any sense, they will *she tilts her head* would have done Jul 29 21:20:53 * Morgan shrugs Jul 29 21:20:58 Met Stef and Axel... Jul 29 21:21:56 Oh! *she looks curious* that must have been interesting Jul 29 21:22:04 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:23:50 Fuchs and Stef's feelings for eachother go back before she married Axel... Jul 29 21:24:09 * Molly nods Jul 29 21:25:28 Yes, they do. She met them both at the same time and fell in love with both of them. Then she had to decide when Axel proposed first, and decided Axel needed her more than Kristoff would, being the sort of quieter, more stoical man he is Jul 29 21:25:46 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:27:22 It was clear though? Jul 29 21:27:34 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:27:38 completely Jul 29 21:28:22 * Molly nods Jul 29 21:28:31 Was she happy with Axel too? Jul 29 21:30:34 Me nods Jul 29 21:30:37 She was, aye Jul 29 21:30:52 * Molly smiles Jul 29 21:30:59 She says he was like Heinzharold Jul 29 21:31:24 I can see that... she has said before thought I remind her of him... Jul 29 21:31:46 * Molly nods Jul 29 21:32:01 I must write to her Jul 29 21:32:08 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:32:16 Yes... send my love would you? Jul 29 21:32:39 of course. she’ll be looking forward to seeing us again Jul 29 21:32:58 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:33:04 Quite possibly Jul 29 21:33:30 we’ll all have new notes to trade... Jul 29 21:33:48 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has left Jul 29 21:35:15 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Jul 29 21:35:25 * Molly smiles Jul 29 21:35:25 She says he was like Heinzharold Jul 29 21:35:25 I can see that... she has said before thought I remind her of him... Jul 29 21:35:25 * Molly nods Jul 29 21:35:25 I must write to her Jul 29 21:35:27 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:35:29 Yes... send my love would you? Jul 29 21:35:31 of course. she’ll be looking forward to seeing us again Jul 29 21:35:33 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:35:35 Quite possibly Jul 29 21:35:37 we’ll all have new notes to trade... Jul 29 21:35:41 Notes? Jul 29 21:35:47 * Molly giggles Jul 29 21:35:52 like the pillow... Jul 29 21:36:04 oh... I see Jul 29 21:36:15 * Molly nods Jul 29 21:36:45 Sadly my best ones involve magic Jul 29 21:37:21 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:38:59 * Molly glances at him “perhaps I’ll just have to listen to see what new things I can bring to our bed” Jul 29 21:39:48 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:39:57 Can hardly tell them about the things we've been up to since... Jul 29 21:40:31 * Molly giggles Jul 29 21:40:42 I’m not sure any of them would understand Jul 29 21:41:16 No, probably not Jul 29 21:42:04 * Molly smiles Jul 29 21:42:09 I don’t mind that Jul 29 21:42:14 No? Jul 29 21:43:04 there’s something about sex now that I am pregnant that hits a particular spot that I can’t explain Jul 29 21:43:42 * Morgan raises an eyebrow Jul 29 21:43:44 interesting... Jul 29 21:44:15 is it? Jul 29 21:44:31 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:44:43 whyso, my love? Jul 29 21:45:22 It just is... Jul 29 21:47:06 * Molly nods thoughtfully Jul 29 21:49:58 It is interesting because it goes beyond just welcoming your increased approaches? Jul 29 21:50:43 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:50:44 Aye Jul 29 21:51:39 * Molly smiles Jul 29 21:51:46 That pleases you? Jul 29 21:52:52 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:52:55 It does, yes Jul 29 21:53:50 * Molly nods, smiling Jul 29 21:54:06 I am glad Jul 29 21:54:29 * Morgan nods Jul 29 21:56:26 * Molly squeezes his hand, smiling happily. Emil babbles to them Jul 29 21:57:44 * Morgan watches the boy for a few moments before nodding Jul 29 22:00:18 *they see the others all gathered around a table out on the grass, his family and best friends surrounded by the lovely blooms of the home he grew up in. They all look happy. She watches him* Jul 29 22:00:50 Yes? Jul 29 22:03:34 It is beautiful to see them all together here? Especially after you were gone so long? Jul 29 22:04:20 * Morgan nods Jul 29 22:04:22 Yes, it is Jul 29 22:06:11 * Molly nods Jul 29 22:06:26 I am glad you got to be here with them again, my love Jul 29 22:07:00 * Morgan nods Jul 29 22:07:01 As am I Jul 29 22:07:44 * Molly nods Jul 29 22:07:55 You clearly had luck on your side Jul 29 22:08:20 * Morgan nods Jul 29 22:08:22 I suppose so Jul 29 22:09:42 And your sword-skill, of course Jul 29 22:10:12 That has helped, yes Jul 29 22:11:24 * Molly nods Jul 29 22:11:30 And destiny Jul 29 22:11:38 * Morgan nods Jul 29 22:11:42 And you Jul 29 22:14:04 * Molly blushes, smiling Jul 29 22:14:23 You have always had me on your side, liebes herz Jul 29 22:14:32 * Morgan nods Jul 29 22:14:34 I know love Jul 29 22:15:12 * Molly smirks, and as they get closer she quietly says “And as soon as you need, you can have me on your back...” Jul 29 22:16:04 * Morgan nods, blushing Jul 29 22:17:21 * Molly smiles, taking her seat Jul 29 22:17:41 HH: $got you good, did she?$ Jul 29 22:19:07 $Just a bit, yeah$ Jul 29 22:20:43 HH $she’s a bad girl$ Jul 29 22:21:37 $Sometimes very bad indeed$ Jul 29 22:22:14 HH: $got the teethmarks to prove it$ Jul 29 22:22:44 * Morgan nods a little Jul 29 22:25:28 *he gets given food and coffee.
