The children sound to still be asleep May 21 21:14:26 Morning May 21 21:14:39 * Molly is now known as Edward May 21 21:14:54 * Edward smiles at him “Good morning, brother” May 21 21:15:01 Alice: Tea, Morgan?

May 21 21:17:47 Absolutely fine May 21 21:18:01 * Edward smiles “that’s a relief” May 21 21:19:04 * Morgan nods May 21 21:20:32 * Edward smiles ruefully “Mimi will be here shortly to see Molly and Inga” May 21 21:21:29 Oh? May 21 21:22:29 * Edward sips his tea May 21 21:23:02 We are sorting my room in preparation for taking things to Graben. Mimi found some old letters of mine May 21 21:23:27 Ah, gossip will ensue May 21 21:23:59 Most were dull... one was a draft I never sent... May 21 21:24:27 Oh? May 21 21:24:40 * Edward grimaces May 21 21:24:50 To Petra. When I was fifteen. May 21 21:25:02 *Alice smiles, handing Morgan the tea* May 21 21:26:06 Thank you love... ah, that will have been... gushing in its praise no doubt May 21 21:27:37 It is cringe worthy. *he smiles faintly* she was delighted. May 21 21:29:50 * Morgan chuckles May 21 21:29:54 I'll bet she was May 21 21:30:52 * Edward smiles “I am happy to tolerate the teasing because she is not upset about it” May 21 21:31:35 * Morgan nods, sipping his tea, wincing a little May 21 21:32:29 *Alice looks concerned* Have I made it wrong? May 21 21:33:44 No love... because of my, lets say, assignment during the war, I got very used to drinking at best tepid drinks... hot ones still surprise me all this time later May 21 21:34:45 *Alice smiles* okay. How are you this morning? May 21 21:35:08 * Morgan draws a deep breath, letting it out slowly May 21 21:35:13 I've been better. Had a rough night May 21 21:38:24 * Edward watches him “Do you need someone to talk to?” May 21 21:40:20 * Morgan smiles a little May 21 21:40:27 I really don't want to have to think about it May 21 21:42:13 * Edward nods “Very well” May 21 21:43:25 * Morgan concentrates on cooling the tea a little before sipping it May 21 21:43:56 *it’s now just as he wants it. He can hear Emil babbling in the other room* May 21 21:45:02 Somebody's awake May 21 21:47:08 * Edward nods. He then hears Varick say “No, we have to wait for a grown up” May 21 21:48:54 * Morgan smiles, putting his tea down and heading for the boys room May 21 21:50:59 *Varick is still in his nightshirt, as is Emil. Jacques was already headed towards the parlour it seems May 21 21:52:02 Morning... what's occurring? May 21 21:55:05 V: Emil was trying to get out of his crib May 21 21:55:18 *Emil grins, lifting his arms* Vati Uh! May 21 21:55:32 * Morgan nods, going to pick him up May 21 21:55:47 I take it you were stopping him while Jacques went to get someone? May 21 21:57:20 *Varick nods* I could probably lift him, but Mama says no May 21 22:00:32 * Morgan nods, mussing his hair May 21 22:00:36 You both did really well May 21 22:01:36 *Emil cuddles Morgan* May 21 22:02:44 Well little man, shall we get you changed? May 21 22:04:31 *Emil lets him, babbling away* May 21 22:05:41 * Morgan nods, talking to him as he changes him May 21 22:06:44 E: Mama May 21 22:07:20 * Morgan nods May 21 22:07:21 I know May 21 22:07:58 Right boys, get dressed and I'll take Emil to his mama May 21 22:09:10 *the bigger boys do so. He hears Florrie from next door go into the main room with an excited “Vati!” May 21 22:09:47 * Morgan takes a deep breath before carrying Emil into the main room May 21 22:12:26 *Florrie is already on Edward’s lap, looking very cute in her nightdress. She’s telling him about a dream of huge flowers, and he’d nodding like it’s completely riveting May 21 22:13:28 * Morgan carries Emil through, heading for the bedroom May 21 22:13:38 [A certain young gentleman has requested to see you May 21 22:13:41 ] May 21 22:14:50 [of course] May 21 22:17:10 * Edward is now known as Molly May 21 22:17:28 * Molly is dressed, but her hair is down May 21 22:19:25 *Emil starts sobbing* May 21 22:19:52 Alright kid, don't overdo it May 21 22:20:35 * Molly looks sympathetic, coming to take him “Oh Lammchen...” May 21 22:22:18 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) May 21 23:02:13 * Molly has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
