Feb 15 19:59:18 father... Feb 15 20:00:32 Is Molly not to join us? Feb 15 20:01:19 She's taking breakfast with Mina and Inga... bit of a chance to gossip I suspect... Feb 15 20:02:28 * Adalbrecht nods Feb 15 20:02:39 As young women seem to be prone to Feb 15 20:02:47 * Morgan nods, glancing around before speaking quietly Feb 15 20:02:50 What loss? Feb 15 20:05:34 what are you talking about? Feb 15 20:05:54 I have exceptionally good hearing...

Feb 15 20:21:25 I'm not sure Feb 15 20:23:31 * Adalbrecht nods Feb 15 20:23:49 Politically I think he should go to Fischler Feb 15 20:24:28 Putting it off twice would be a mistake I think Feb 15 20:27:02 * Adalbrecht nods Feb 15 20:27:28 You know Faulk well, will he take that personally? Feb 15 20:28:43 I don't know him that well... I think perhaps -I- could get away with it... Edward, I'm not so sure Feb 15 20:30:14 * Adalbrecht nods Feb 15 20:30:51 I wondered if I should volunteer to go to Freiburg with them in his stead Feb 15 20:31:16 Thats... not the worst idea...

They both look relaxed* Feb 15 20:51:14 * Morgan moves back toward the dining room Feb 15 20:53:51 *they all get settled in for breakfast, Emil in Morgan’s lap.

Feb 15 21:10:23 Its not so far if it becomes an issue... she can express some if needs be too Feb 15 21:11:21 * Adalbrecht blushes at this.
