**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Aug 2 20:20:14 2025 Aug 02 20:20:14 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.101) has joined Aug 02 20:21:54 what changed? Aug 02 20:21:55 For a good while I've had an over abundance of faith... my issue is Theus feels like an absent parent Aug 02 20:21:55 * Edward nods Aug 02 20:21:55 I can appreciate why it would feel that way Aug 02 20:21:55 * Morgan nods Aug 02 20:21:57 However, I am His creation. -I- am accountable to -Him-. -He- is not accountable to -me- Aug 02 20:21:59 * Morgan smiles a little Aug 02 20:22:03 I hold all with power over others to account Aug 02 20:22:05 I understand that. I don’t agree with it in this case, but I appreciate we have different outlooks. Aug 02 20:22:07 * Morgan nods Aug 02 20:22:09 As I child I did not question Father’s decisions about the Grafdom, this is no different Aug 02 20:22:11 * Morgan shrugs Aug 02 20:22:13 This is one of the areas we are different Aug 02 20:22:15 * Edward nods “Indeed. Do I need to keep Father busy so you can deal with your wife?” Aug 02 20:22:17 No, I need to talk to Claudia first Aug 02 20:24:26 *edward nods* very well, brother Aug 02 20:24:39 * Morgan nods, putting the glass down and getting gup Aug 02 20:26:22 Ad: Are you going to bed already? Aug 02 20:27:08 No, I'm going to find Claudia Aug 02 20:28:57 Ad: goodnight then Aug 02 20:29:55 * Morgan nods, heading out to find Claudia Aug 02 20:30:56 *she must still be with the women* Aug 02 20:31:24 * Morgan frowns, heading that way Aug 02 20:34:13 *there’s piano music* Aug 02 20:35:13 * Morgan knocks Aug 02 20:35:57 *verity calls for him to come in* Aug 02 20:36:54 * Morgan opens the door, hovering in the doorway Aug 02 20:38:29 I'm going for a walk, I wondered if Claudia wanted to join me Aug 02 20:39:45 *the others look to him, then Claudia come over* Aug 02 20:39:54 Ve: enjoy your walk, dear boy Aug 02 20:40:10 * Morgan nods, backing out of the room and making for an exterior door Aug 02 20:40:36 * Molly is now known as Claudia Aug 02 20:40:57 Okay, what the fuck is going on? Aug 02 20:42:05 Martha made some fucking comment about Molly's size and now Molly is wearing loose dresses because thats what noblewomen should do... Aug 02 20:42:33 * Claudia opens the door for him Aug 02 20:42:42 Okay Aug 02 20:44:08 I wasn't happy about it but of course -that- doesn't matter, so I said thats fine, I'll be changing my behaviour to match noblemen but apparently -that- isn't fair... so I went to tell Martha if she so much as looks at Molly sideways, I'd throw her in the lake Aug 02 20:46:38 * Claudia nods Aug 02 20:46:43 Female bullshit then Aug 02 20:46:48 * Morgan nods Aug 02 20:47:25 Yeah. I'm not having that fucking woman in my house ever again if she crosses that line once more. Aug 02 20:50:14 * Claudia nods Aug 02 20:50:51 Tactlessness and Resentment are clashing right now Aug 02 20:51:04 * Morgan nods Aug 02 20:51:15 Not that any of them will actually deal with any of it Aug 02 20:53:13 * Claudia nods Aug 02 20:53:23 Women suck Aug 02 20:53:55 * Morgan sighs heavily Aug 02 20:55:00 I'm fed up of it Aug 02 20:56:19 * Claudia nods “Yeah” Aug 02 20:57:35 * Morgan stretches his shoulders, making them pop Aug 02 20:59:16 I suppose I could get involved, if you need Aug 02 20:59:54 * Morgan shrugs Aug 02 21:00:00 Think its time they act like grown ups Aug 02 21:02:35 * Claudia nods Aug 02 21:02:46 alright Aug 02 21:06:12 * Morgan looks around Aug 02 21:07:19 *theres no one else out here* Aug 02 21:08:54 So yeah, thats whats going on Aug 02 21:09:37 * Claudia nods Aug 02 21:09:58 so what are you going to do about it tonight? You wanna stay at my place? Aug 02 21:11:32 No, I'm going to try to fix it with Molly... if she wants to be awkward about it, there's plenty of rooms I can sleep in Aug 02 21:15:27 * Claudia nods Aug 02 21:16:13 I don’t envy you. They’re mental at the best of times, add in feeling self-conscious and pregnant... Good luck Aug 02 21:16:45 She can either choose to work with me or not, but I won't be putting any energy into it if she chooses not to Aug 02 21:19:01 * Claudia shrugs “Gotta do what’s best for you” Aug 02 21:20:27 * Morgan nods Aug 02 21:20:28 Yeah Aug 02 21:21:28 If you want words having, I will, but I can’t say I understand their horseshit much better than you or Heinzharold would Aug 02 21:22:26 No, I'll deal with it for now Aug 02 21:22:45 * Claudia nods Aug 02 21:23:06 She’s seemed quiet Aug 02 21:24:13 * Morgan nods Aug 02 21:24:16 No doubt Aug 02 21:27:00 * Claudia continues walking “are you two okay otherwise?” Aug 02 21:27:29 We were, yeah Aug 02 21:30:57 * Claudia nods Aug 02 21:31:22 So glad Uinise is not that complicated Aug 02 21:31:42 * Morgan nods Aug 02 21:31:45 I would imagine so Aug 02 21:33:45 She doesn’t read so much into everything. And if she has a problem, she just says it Aug 02 21:34:30 * Morgan nods Aug 02 21:34:33 I had noticed Aug 02 21:37:14 * Claudia nods Aug 02 21:37:37 it’s kinda peaceful Aug 02 21:38:03 I would imagine it is Aug 02 21:39:30 * Claudia walks around with him, also being peaceful. Ballard finds them after a while, watching the lake suspiciously Aug 02 21:40:13 * Morgan stops to fuss him before moving on Aug 02 21:40:18 I want to swim Aug 02 21:42:15 Probably not even the most dangerous thing you’d have ever done Aug 02 21:43:20 No, probably not actually Aug 02 21:45:27 * Claudia nods Aug 02 21:45:51 But if your mother finds out... Aug 02 21:46:22 Not worth it Aug 02 21:46:49 * Claudia nods Aug 02 21:47:10 won’t fix your wife problem though Aug 02 21:50:04 Not, it won't Aug 02 21:52:25 I don’t know how to fix that, sorry Aug 02 21:54:12 * Morgan shrugs Aug 02 21:54:22 It'll either be fixed or it wont Aug 02 21:56:36 * Claudia watches him sidelong a moment “Surprisingly apathetic for you” Aug 02 21:57:20 * Morgan shrugs Aug 02 21:57:53 My wants don't matter, makes me feel like -I- don't... so why should I bother? Aug 02 22:00:07 * Claudia nods Aug 02 22:00:18 It’s about way more than just the dress then Aug 02 22:00:30 * Morgan shrugs Aug 02 22:00:32 Not really Aug 02 22:01:03 You need Tough Love Claudia? Aug 02 22:02:11 * Morgan sighs Aug 02 22:02:13 Go on then Aug 02 22:04:12 It’s a fucking dress. She’s -pregnant- and someone’s made her feel like she looks fat. Why didn’t you just reassure her that she looks great and you’re proud of her, but you prefer showing her off? Aug 02 22:05:35 Fine. Understood. Aug 02 22:06:10 I don’t get it. Are you mostly mad that you feel like she’s choosing Martha over you. Aug 02 22:08:41 One little comment from Martha and she changes her behaviour... I explain I don't agree with Martha and what changes? What difference does my opinion or my desires make, Claudia? I'll tell you. Absolutely fuck all. Why should I keep putting myself through being dismissed and ignored for nothing? Aug 02 22:09:43 Did you actually tell her what you wanted her to do? Did you say “I want you to go out on your other dress?l Aug 02 22:09:51 put* Aug 02 22:10:59 No, I used her example but thats not on apparently. Aug 02 22:11:29 did you reassure her, or went straight to being angry? Aug 02 22:11:40 * Morgan grinds his teeth Aug 02 22:12:20 I got angry... and I'm fucking still angry. I'm going indoors. Aug 02 22:12:29 * Morgan turns, walking toward the building Aug 02 22:13:02 Alright then. Training in the morning? Aug 02 22:13:49 No. I'm taking the morning to myself Aug 02 22:14:00 Alright Aug 02 22:15:08 I'm sorry, I need to be alone Aug 02 22:15:32 Don’t need to apologise to me. See you tomorrow Aug 02 22:15:46 * Morgan nods, heading inside the house before going to find an empty bedroom Aug 02 22:16:30 *his own childhood room, the one he always had before the Veisgraf Wing, is empty* Aug 02 22:17:21 * Morgan heads to it, shoving the door closed before pulling off his coat, sword belt and shirt, moving to sit on the floor cross legged before concentrating on bringing the temperature down significantly Aug 02 22:17:41 *the room becomes cold quickly Aug 02 22:18:41 * Morgan drives the temperature lower before trying to meditate Aug 02 22:19:10 *it’s definitely cold immediately around him, almost as cold as Graben Aug 02 22:19:46 * Morgan breathes slowly, closing his eyes Aug 02 23:09:03 * Claudia has quit (Read error: EOF from client)
