**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Jul 23 19:26:00 2025 Jul 23 19:26:00 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.101) has joined Jul 23 19:28:34 * Molly smiles, glancing at him “Did you feel it?” But he didn’t Jul 23 19:28:34 * Morgan shakes his head a little Jul 23 19:28:34 * Molly sighs quietly Jul 23 19:28:34 Soon... Jul 23 19:28:34 * Morgan nods Jul 23 19:28:35 I hope so Jul 23 19:28:37 * Molly nods, speaking quietly “Me too... I think it’d be good for us” Jul 23 19:28:39 * Morgan sighs Jul 23 19:28:41 Maybe Jul 23 19:28:43 * Molly frowns slightly, but then sips her tea Jul 23 19:28:45 HH; $hate to break it to you, but people are going to notice you pair looking like that...$ Jul 23 19:28:49 $I'll just stop being messed up and struggling then$ Jul 23 19:28:51 HH: $just giving you a heads up so your Ma isn’t upset, man. trying to do you a favour here.$ Jul 23 19:28:53 $Sorry$ Jul 23 19:28:55 *Hh just nods slightly* Jul 23 19:30:58 * Morgan taps again Jul 23 19:31:32 *nothing happens again. A servant comes to tell them everything is ready on the lawn * Jul 23 19:32:23 * Morgan gets up, turning to help Molly up Jul 23 19:34:20 * Molly accepts the help without protest. Adalbrecht picks up Emil, and Edward carries Florrie. They all return to the sunshine where the staff have arranged benches, chairs and tables. Martha, David, Yensid, Ruth, And Ma are outside Jul 23 19:37:19 Where are you wanting to be? Jul 23 19:39:28 * Molly squares her shoulders slightly Jul 23 19:39:41 On the bench in the middle, I suppose Jul 23 19:40:35 * Morgan nods, squeezing her hand Jul 23 19:42:35 *Martha and David go to Adalbrecht, fussing over Emil. Edward sets Florrie down, and watches the proceedings whilst the others sit Jul 23 19:44:34 * Morgan leads her to the bench Jul 23 19:46:50 * Molly sits, giving him a smile. Varick, Jacques, And Florrie start playing. Emil squawks like he wants to join them, but the four grandparents are fussing over him Jul 23 19:48:10 * Morgan watches them for a moment Jul 23 19:50:59 *Emil is still fussing. Edward puts himself in their line of sight before he says “Father, it sounds like my nephew wants to play with the others” Jul 23 19:52:57 * Morgan smiles a little, watching their reaction Jul 23 19:54:05 *Adalbrecht doesn’t look best impressed, but does set Emil down* Jul 23 19:54:35 David: I am sure he’ll have a cuddle with everyone later Jul 23 19:54:53 *Emil toddles over to Varick* Jul 23 19:55:37 * Morgan watches them, humming quietly Jul 23 19:56:28 *the children are playing happily. Ma smiles, looking to Morgan “It’s lovely have so many babbies around” Jul 23 19:56:44 * Morgan nods a little Jul 23 19:56:47 Aye, it is Jul 23 19:57:33 *a servant gets them all drinks. Molly stays sat close to Morgan* Jul 23 19:57:51 Ma: Not long til the next one either Jul 23 19:58:18 No, it really isn't Jul 23 20:00:32 *Ma smiles* It’ll be a handsome wee thing, or a pretty one Jul 23 20:02:33 undoubtedly Jul 23 20:02:54 Ma: And hopefully Heinzharold will follow suit soon... Jul 23 20:03:59 *His best friend just shrugs* HH: We’re gonna enjoy settling in at ‘ome for a bit first Jul 23 20:04:23 *Inga smiles at this, blushing a little* Jul 23 20:05:35 * Morgan frowns a little Jul 23 20:05:48 Will it be the first time we've had no-one staying in the main house? Jul 23 20:07:56 HH: You’ll still have Uinise and Claudia... Jul 23 20:08:15 *Ruth smiles* I can stay if you need someone! Jul 23 20:08:35 As I recall you're visiting soon anyway... Jul 23 20:09:35 *Ruth nods eagerly* Jul 23 20:10:06 * Molly sips her tea “That reminds me... Heinzharold, might I have a word?” Jul 23 20:10:32 * Morgan raises an eyebrow Jul 23 20:10:45 *HH nods, getting up and bowing floridly* It would be my utmost honour, my queen... Jul 23 20:12:25 *Claudia rolls her eyes. Molly gets up, taking his arm and going with him. Inga moves to sit by Morgan whilst the others chat about HH always being like that. She whispers* I: Are you alright? Jul 23 20:13:26 * Morgan shrugs a little Jul 23 20:16:09 *inga nods sadly* Jul 23 20:16:20 I'm trying but... nothing seems good enough Jul 23 20:18:08 * Molly is now known as Inga Jul 23 20:18:11 For who? Jul 23 20:19:28 Anyone... Jul 23 20:21:01 It’s hard when you’re pushing uphill Jul 23 20:21:25 * Morgan nods Jul 23 20:21:26 Yes it is Jul 23 20:22:31 Can Molly do anything...? Jul 23 20:24:07 When I was trying to feel Hirschen kick, she said feeling him would be good for us, like, to fix us... god forbid I have a rough couple of days and need the support of others without their judgement Jul 23 20:25:01 Oh Morgan, I’m sorry Jul 23 20:26:06 * Morgan nods a little Jul 23 20:27:44 I doubt she meant to hurt you Jul 23 20:28:28 Probably not Jul 23 20:30:45 It’s already nearly midday, if you can just get through the next hour with the family I can let you have Heinzharold in Quiet Hour to train? Assuming you and Molly won’t... Jul 23 20:32:29 * Morgan shrugs Jul 23 20:35:30 *the others are chatting and laughing* Jul 23 20:35:45 * Inga whispers Jul 23 20:35:54 what about if you used the tobacco? Jul 23 20:36:52 * Morgan shrugs Jul 23 20:36:53 maybe Jul 23 20:38:06 It’d probably take the edge off Jul 23 20:38:29 * Inga smiles “or the balm! do you have that?” Jul 23 20:38:36 I always have that Jul 23 20:39:04 You could let everyone smell it, as a cover? Jul 23 20:39:25 Too risky... Jul 23 20:42:30 why? Jul 23 20:43:12 How would I explain it to everyone -why- it smells different to each of them? Jul 23 20:45:22 Because it was a Nieblungen gift, and those things are odd? *it’s only Uinise, Christopher, Ma, and Ruth who haven’t already experienced the special balm* Jul 23 20:46:04 Don't really want it getting about that I was given something by them... Jul 23 20:47:44 * Inga shrugs “You could go in an find a parasol for me?” Jul 23 20:48:41 I could do... Jul 23 20:49:47 * Inga nods, saying louder “Morgan, would you mind looking for a parasol for me, please?” Jul 23 20:50:26 * Morgan nods, getting up and heading toward the house Jul 23 20:52:17 *he gets indoors without incident* Jul 23 20:52:53 * Morgan goes to get a parasol, rubbing the balm under his nose as he does so Jul 23 20:55:22 *It smells like whatever is now most effective at calming him down. He finds a parasol in a rack in the hall* Jul 23 20:56:05 * Morgan pockets the balm, wandering back outside Jul 23 20:57:34 *He bumps into Molly on the threshold, looking concerned* Jul 23 20:57:37 * Inga is now known as Molly Jul 23 20:57:48 I saw you come indoors, are you alright? Jul 23 20:59:03 * Morgan nods Jul 23 20:59:17 Inga suggested I use the balm, and gave me an excuse to be out of sight to use it Jul 23 20:59:39 * Molly nods Jul 23 20:59:46 is it working? Jul 23 20:59:51 * Morgan shrugs Jul 23 20:59:54 So far a little Jul 23 21:00:25 * Molly nods Jul 23 21:00:34 What does it smell of now? Jul 23 21:00:48 A mix of things Jul 23 21:01:05 * Molly nods slowly Jul 23 21:01:12 It’s the same as before? Jul 23 21:01:18 Not quite Jul 23 21:01:54 * Molly nods “Perhaps another time you’d tell me?” Jul 23 21:03:05 * Morgan nods Jul 23 21:03:06 probably Jul 23 21:04:07 * Molly nods, watching him Jul 23 21:04:34 I could try with magic, but it often isn’t enough for this sort of pain Jul 23 21:05:30 No, it isn't Jul 23 21:07:06 * Molly nods sadly Jul 23 21:07:16 I wish I could do more Jul 23 21:09:24 * Morgan nods Jul 23 21:09:25 I know Jul 23 21:09:53 * Molly nods Jul 23 21:10:13 Is there anything I -can- do? Anything at all? Jul 23 21:11:29 Stop acting like there's something wrong with us... I'm having a rough few days, thats all Jul 23 21:11:47 * Molly looks surprised by this Jul 23 21:12:21 Oh! Yes, I do know that Jul 23 21:12:53 Thats not how it seems... not from the things you've said... Jul 23 21:14:23 I am sorry, I am on edge. I am not sure how to help you, when I used to be what cheered you Jul 23 21:14:55 * Morgan shrugs Jul 23 21:15:15 Sometimes someone cant be cheered, and to be pushed is... unkind Jul 23 21:15:40 * Molly nods, bowing her head “I’m sorry” Jul 23 21:15:58 * Morgan nods a little Jul 23 21:16:24 We need to go back to the others Jul 23 21:16:35 * Molly nods Jul 23 21:16:50 We do, it will only worry them Jul 23 21:18:19 * Morgan nods Jul 23 21:18:43 * Molly takes his hand “But will you give me your forgiveness first?” Jul 23 21:19:22 I don't see its needed Jul 23 21:20:19 Perhaps not needed, but I would feel more settled to know that we are not at odds and that nothing has changed Jul 23 21:20:26 * Morgan nods Jul 23 21:20:28 Alright love Jul 23 21:20:49 * Molly kisses his knuckles “Thank you. I love you” Jul 23 21:21:47 And I you Jul 23 21:23:38 * Molly smiles, looking more relaxed Jul 23 21:23:45 Thank you Jul 23 21:24:21 Come on, lets get back Jul 23 21:25:07 * Molly squeezes gently, letting him lead her Jul 23 21:25:37 * Morgan walks her back outside Jul 23 21:27:16 * Molly squares her shoulders again, heading towards the others with a smile Jul 23 21:28:30 * Morgan swings the parasol idly as he walks Jul 23 21:29:33 * Molly glances at him doing it, and he sees her smile become less for show and more genuine Jul 23 21:31:35 What did you want HeinzHarold for? Jul 23 21:32:58 I hadn’t told him what Seb asked of me Jul 23 21:33:18 What did he say? Jul 23 21:35:19 That he thinks that will be okay, though she needs to be kept an eye on around men Jul 23 21:35:25 * Morgan nods Jul 23 21:35:27 definitely Jul 23 21:37:06 * Molly nods Jul 23 21:37:14 I think we can handle that Jul 23 21:38:03 * Morgan nods Jul 23 21:38:04 I imagine so Jul 23 21:39:20 * Molly nods, still smiling. Their relaxed demeanour and held hands seems to make their friends and family happy as they’re watched with smiles Jul 23 21:45:04 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client)
