Jun 04 19:24:12 No thank you Jun 04 19:24:12 * Morgan starts getting dressed Jun 04 19:24:12 * Molly still makes sure to concentrate on emptying the bath rather than watching this Jun 04 19:24:13 * Morgan finishes up Jun 04 19:24:15 Alright, I'm done Jun 04 19:24:17 * Molly nods, coming back to him “shall we go to the Veisgraf Wing, or do you wish to join the others?” Jun 04 19:24:19 I think join the others... though I wish to collect the letter Jun 04 19:24:21 What did she say, my love? *they head that way* Jun 04 19:24:23 * Morgan takes a deep breath Jun 04 19:24:25 That Thomas has laughed for the first time... that they miss us, asking if James is coming to Freiburg to start work Jun 04 19:24:29 * Molly smiles “That’s wonderful! they must be so pleased!” Jun 04 19:24:31 * Morgan nods Jun 04 19:24:33 I imagine so Jun 04 19:26:06 And you are pleased? Jun 04 19:26:58 * Morgan nods Jun 04 19:27:01 I am... Jun 04 19:27:33 * Molly glances at him Jun 04 19:27:38 ...but...” Jun 04 19:27:39 ? Jun 04 19:27:52 Its just a bit... much... Jun 04 19:29:15 why, liebling? Jun 04 19:30:58 Everything's a bit raw and overwhelming Jun 04 19:33:05 * Molly nods Jun 04 19:33:28 I think my letter is from Seb Jun 04 19:34:11 * Morgan frowns Jun 04 19:34:14 Right... Jun 04 19:35:27 It has a seal that has fish and a ship Jun 04 19:37:44 Sounds about right then Jun 04 19:39:24 * Molly nods. They get to the parlour where both letters are Jun 04 19:40:05 * Morgan picks his up, reading it again before tucking it into his pocket Jun 04 19:42:05 * Molly sits to open hers. She smiles “Well... he’s doing well, he’s back out to sea” Jun 04 19:44:25 Oh? Jun 04 19:44:49 * Molly nods Jun 04 19:45:14 Trading in Vesten, it seems. He doesn’t mention Hannalore. Jun 04 19:45:57 Ah... yes... they are no longer an ongoing concern... Jun 04 19:46:19 * Molly nods, smiling “good” Jun 04 19:46:28 * Morgan frowns Jun 04 19:46:29 Good? Jun 04 19:47:40 yes. He deserves someone with a less complicated past, I do not truly believe she and Federest are finished forever Jun 04 19:51:58 I suppose so Jun 04 19:52:33 * Molly watches him Jun 04 19:52:57 I am sure there’s someone much more suited to him out there Jun 04 19:57:50 You're probably right Jun 04 19:59:31 * Molly nods, reading further quietly Jun 04 20:05:23 What else? Jun 04 20:07:12 He wonders if Ruth would consider coming to be a companion for Ilena when we attend the wedding... Jun 04 20:09:29 He'd be best asking HeinzHarold... Jun 04 20:10:19 He wants my opinion, as a woman and a Duchess, whether I think Ruth would like that, and whether I think she’s of an appropriate station Jun 04 20:10:49 Mmm... Jun 04 20:12:46 what’s wrong, my love? Jun 04 20:12:57 * Morgan shrugs a little Jun 04 20:13:57 * Molly holds out her hand to him Jun 04 20:14:04 * Morgan takes it Jun 04 20:14:52 * Molly kisses his knuckles Jun 04 20:15:14 you don’t need to feel possessive or jealous. -You- are my man. Jun 04 20:16:16 * Morgan sighs, shrugging Jun 04 20:16:20 I know... but I can't help it Jun 04 20:16:36 You know I love you, yes? Jun 04 20:17:34 * Morgan nods Jun 04 20:17:35 I do Jun 04 20:18:21 And you know I -chose- you, yes? Jun 04 20:18:30 * Morgan nods, frowning Jun 04 20:19:11 And you know I’ll continue to love and choose you, every day. Yes? Jun 04 20:19:56 * Morgan nods Jun 04 20:20:41 Then you do not need to worry. I am utterly yours. Jun 04 20:21:04 The same was true of me, yet you worried about Hannalore... Jun 04 20:21:19 So you'll forgive me if I continue to worry about the man you will be with should I die Jun 04 20:23:04 * Molly looks away Jun 04 20:23:07 Alright Jun 04 20:23:57 I don't wish to hurt you but what you ask is... hypocritical Jun 04 20:25:12 * Molly nods, sighing Jun 04 20:25:15 I see that Jun 04 20:25:34 * Morgan nods Jun 04 20:26:46 I just wanted to reassure you Jun 04 20:29:04 * Morgan nods Jun 04 20:29:17 I know, I'm sorry... I'm still finding everything a bit much Jun 04 20:29:29 * Molly nods Jun 04 20:29:38 I would do anything to help you Jun 04 20:30:04 I know Jun 04 20:31:56 Maybe tonight you’ll have a better night, and things will be better tomorrow Jun 04 20:32:10 I find that unlikely Jun 04 20:34:40 We need some luck Jun 04 20:35:03 * Morgan nods Jun 04 20:35:04 aye Jun 04 20:36:44 * Molly folds the letter before putting it in her pocket Jun 04 20:36:51 Shall we?

It’s lovely that she calls you Father” Jun 04 20:46:10 * Morgan nods Jun 04 20:46:25 It wouldn't have hit me so hard if it hadn't been today Jun 04 20:48:28 * Molly nods Jun 04 20:48:44 It was always going to be difficult for you to let her ring go Jun 04 20:49:14 * Morgan nods Jun 04 20:49:17 Yes it was Jun 04 20:51:08 You still have yours though Jun 04 20:51:46 * Morgan nods Jun 04 20:52:04 Aye, I know... but it... I don't know, it was even more... -real- Jun 04 20:52:15 * Molly nods Jun 04 20:52:18 Sit with me? Jun 04 20:54:49 I thought you wished to go to the others Jun 04 20:55:16 it seemed like you wished to talk about today Jun 04 20:56:24 I don't think I can yet Jun 04 20:57:06 * Molly nods Jun 04 20:57:31 Alright, my love, we can go.

Jun 04 20:59:19 * Molly nods Jun 04 20:59:37 it’s like sudden movements, over and over Jun 04 20:59:52 * Morgan nods Jun 04 20:59:55 Sounds reasonable Jun 04 21:12:49 Do you wish to listen? Jun 04 21:13:30 * Morgan nods Jun 04 21:13:32 For a minute Jun 04 21:13:57 * Molly stands still so he can kneel to listen Jun 04 21:14:13 * Morgan kneels down, pressing his ear to her tummy Jun 04 21:14:45 *he can hear the heartbeat and the little hiccups* Jun 04 21:15:33 * Morgan nods Jun 04 21:15:37 Definitely hiccups Jun 04 21:16:16 That’s nice, isn’t it? I hope it will not be long before you can feel him Jun 04 21:17:05 * Morgan nods Jun 04 21:17:08 I hope so Jun 04 21:17:35 * Molly strokes his hair Jun 04 21:19:07 me too. it could be any time. would you have me tell you if I feel him from the outside first?
