**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Aug 26 18:32:40 2025 Aug 26 18:32:40 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.101) has joined Aug 26 18:35:06 * Varick makes a disgusted face “He smells so bad!” Aug 26 18:35:06 *Jacques keeps quiet but grimaces* Aug 26 18:35:06 * Morgan smiles a little Aug 26 18:35:06 They do that Aug 26 18:35:07 But it’s so bad! Aug 26 18:35:09 Tends to be Aug 26 18:35:11 can’t you smell it, Vati?! Aug 26 18:35:13 * Morgan shrugs a little Aug 26 18:35:15 I'm not a stranger to the smells a baby can make Aug 26 18:35:19 M: perhaps we’ll open the windows... Aug 26 18:35:21 Good idea Aug 26 18:35:23 *they do this, and the others seem less bothered by the smell he can’t smell Aug 26 18:35:25 * Morgan looks out of the window Aug 26 18:35:27 *they’re soon pulling up at their destination* Aug 26 18:36:46 *the coachman opens the door and then coughs Aug 26 18:37:33 * Morgan chuckles, climbing out Aug 26 18:42:04 * Molly hands the baby out to him and the bigger children get out Aug 26 18:43:10 Well little lamb, you've outdone yourself, haven't you Aug 26 18:53:13 *Emil grizzles* Aug 26 18:54:03 I know, lets get you cleaned up Aug 26 18:54:48 * Molly gets out, looking up at the house Aug 26 18:54:54 Alright then... Aug 26 18:56:23 Ready? Aug 26 18:56:45 * Molly nods Aug 26 18:57:27 I am Aug 26 18:58:25 * Morgan nods, checking for Bir Aug 26 18:58:51 *Bir waits Aug 26 18:59:44 Come on then... Aug 26 19:00:47 *Bir hops out, looking around * Aug 26 19:01:17 * Morgan goes to knock on the door Aug 26 19:04:35 *Otto comes to answer. He looks tired, and he has a cloth over his shoulder just like Sascha had taught Dietlinde to do to protect her dresses from spit up* Aug 26 19:04:59 Sleeping in turns? Aug 26 19:05:40 * Molly is now known as Otto Aug 26 19:05:49 * Otto lets them in Aug 26 19:05:59 we mostly do Aug 26 19:06:54 I meant the twins Aug 26 19:08:45 * Otto laughs, leading them into the main room. Sascha has a sleeping baby under each arm. The house looks a bit untidy, he spots Jacques looking around Aug 26 19:10:14 Is there somewhere I can change Emil? Then we'll introduce you to Bir and see if you need any help Aug 26 19:11:12 *Sascha suggests the nursery, Dietlinde’s old bedroom* Aug 26 19:11:38 * Morgan nods, taking Emil up to change him Aug 26 19:14:14 *the nursery is a little untidy too, but it feels more lived in now Aug 26 19:15:09 * Morgan gets him changed, tidying as he goes Aug 26 19:16:59 *with his sense of smell turned off, it’s not too bad. The room doesn’t feel like Dietlinde’s old bedroom now Aug 26 19:17:23 * Morgan sights, tidying a bit more before going back down Aug 26 19:20:26 *When he gets downstairs, Molly seems to be looking at the boy baby. Varick is stood with Jacques by the painting of Dietlinde and Jana* Aug 26 19:20:55 V: And she is Emil’s sister too, and Hirschen’s sister, and then sister to all my other babies... Aug 26 19:24:23 * Morgan strokes his hair Aug 26 19:24:51 *Emil grins* Aug 26 19:25:02 Coffee, Morgan? Aug 26 19:25:16 Please, Otto Aug 26 19:27:46 *he goes to make some. Emil says ‘Mama bees’ Aug 26 19:28:02 M: In a minute, Lammchen... Aug 26 19:28:44 Has anyone introduced Bir to Sascha yet? Aug 26 19:29:15 Varick: And Dietlinde will be another Mama for me one day in heaven, and Emil’s Mama, and Hirschen’s Mama, and all my babies ‘ Mama... Aug 26 19:29:57 *it all goes very quiet* Aug 26 19:30:52 Thats... an interesting way of looking at it Aug 26 19:31:43 *Varick looks to Morgan* People can have lots of Mamas and Vatis, and in heaven she’ll be a new Mama for me to meet Aug 26 19:32:02 When you put it like that, it makes a lot of sense actually Aug 26 19:35:32 *Varick comes over to him* Will she love Me and Emil and Hirschen and our babies? Aug 26 19:36:09 Of course she will Aug 26 19:36:30 *Molly gently puts the baby on the table to examine him. Morgan’s neck prickles, and with it his sense of smell suddenly returns* Aug 26 19:36:50 *Varick smiles* Will we live in one big house in heaven? Aug 26 19:37:43 * Otto calls the boys to the kitchen for milk and biscuits Aug 26 19:37:55 Oh I've got no idea... go on, go for some milk and I'll show Bir to Sascha Aug 26 19:38:23 *Varick and Jacques both go. Emil tries to get down* Aug 26 19:38:36 * Morgan lets him down Aug 26 19:38:57 *Emil toddles after the other boys saying “meee” Aug 26 19:39:20 *Molly is busy concentrating on the baby* Aug 26 19:39:44 * Morgan watches him to make sure he joins the other boys safely Aug 26 19:39:47 Sascha: He’s a sweet boy Aug 26 19:40:48 *Emil gets to the kitchen fine* Aug 26 19:41:03 * Morgan smiles Aug 26 19:41:05 Which one? Aug 26 19:41:12 S: Varick Aug 26 19:42:30 * Morgan nods Aug 26 19:42:43 He really is... he's helped me so much Aug 26 19:43:51 S: It’s nice that he feels a sense of closeness to Dietlinde and Jana Aug 26 19:44:23 *Molly gently wraps the little one back up* Aug 26 19:44:40 * Morgan nods Aug 26 19:46:32 M: he’s fine and healthy *she passes Fritzi to his mother* Aug 26 19:47:37 *Sascha smiles “thank you” she hands over Lina Aug 26 19:50:21 *Molly takes the dark haired baby to the table. Her moving past the open window means he can suddenly smell the scent he’s been shielded from Aug 26 19:50:54 [why did you bring my sense of smell back?] Aug 26 19:51:06 * Morgan watches her for a moment Aug 26 19:52:47 [oh, did it drop when I was using my magic? *she’s busy with this baby, but her body language looks a little tense* Aug 26 19:53:17 [yes...] Aug 26 19:54:28 [right... give me a moment and then I’ll fix it] *his neck prickles* Aug 26 19:57:12 * Morgan looks down at the little boy Aug 26 19:58:47 *He looks mostly asleep. He does faintly resembled Dietlinde in the mouth and chin* Aug 26 19:59:00 S: How are your family, Morgan? Aug 26 19:59:29 *His neck prickles again, and once more he can smell nothing* Aug 26 19:59:49 They're well.. not looking forward to us all going separate ways again though Aug 26 20:02:00 * Otto is now known as Sascha Aug 26 20:02:14 It must have been more than a month now? Aug 26 20:02:57 * Morgan nods Aug 26 20:03:15 Aye, it is... Aug 26 20:05:43 * Sascha nods Aug 26 20:06:01 Will they come here again for your birth? Aug 26 20:06:20 *The baby starts to cry* Aug 26 20:06:35 Ah mine was a long time ago, so they'd be a bit late for that Aug 26 20:07:38 * Sascha laughs. Molly brings the baby to her Aug 26 20:07:48 M: Here we go, also fine Aug 26 20:09:03 Thats what we like to hear Aug 26 20:10:37 * Sascha smiles “Thank you, it’s good to know” Lina roots at her breast Aug 26 20:10:56 *Molly nods* I’ll fetch Bir in Aug 26 20:11:57 Thank you love Aug 26 20:13:39 *Molly goes outside* Aug 26 20:13:57 * Sascha undoes her dress Aug 26 20:14:06 I'll give you some privacy Aug 26 20:15:35 * Sascha nods Aug 26 20:15:38 Alright Aug 26 20:16:59 * Morgan smiles, going through to the kitchen Aug 26 20:18:16 *Jacques and Varick are helping to clean up* Aug 26 20:18:56 *Emil is sat on the floor playing with an empty wooden cup and a pine cone* Aug 26 20:19:42 What you got there little man? Aug 26 20:20:58 *Emil holds them up* Aug 26 20:21:59 * Morgan crouches down Aug 26 20:22:04 Well aren't they lovely Aug 26 20:24:09 *Emil tries to put the pine cone in his mouth* Aug 26 20:24:20 That won't be very nice... Aug 26 20:24:27 V: Do you think Mama wants a biscuit? Aug 26 20:24:53 *Emil makes a grimace when he tastes it* Aug 26 20:25:23 Possibly... this little man definitely does Aug 26 20:26:51 V: I’ll give the last one to him Aug 26 20:27:16 Thats kind of you Aug 26 20:29:47 *Varick comes to give it to Emil. The toddler has munched through the whole thing before Morgan realises he hasn’t heard Molly return Aug 26 20:30:17 [are you alright?] Aug 26 20:31:47 [yes, I’ll be right in] Aug 26 20:32:27 [whats wrong?] Aug 26 20:33:56 [I’m feeling wearied, that’s all] *he hears her open the door and encourage Bir in Aug 26 20:34:09 [why?] Aug 26 20:36:06 [it’s tiring being pregnant] Aug 26 20:37:32 [alright love] Aug 26 20:38:45 *Bir Wolf-whistles* Aug 26 20:39:00 *he can hear Sascha laugh* Aug 26 20:40:40 *Varick gets up, running into the other room* Aug 26 20:40:47 * Morgan smiles, looking up Aug 26 20:43:17 *Otto moves on through. Emil stands, carrying the pine cone* E: Mama Aug 26 20:45:05 Aye, lets find mama Aug 26 20:45:08 *Emil looks questioningly to Morgan* Mama bees Aug 26 20:45:21 In a little while Aug 26 20:45:44 *Varick is chatting away, getting Bir to perform tricks* Aug 26 20:49:07 *Otto and Sascha enjoy watching this. Emil toddles over to Bir the sits on the floor* Aug 26 20:50:30 * Morgan smiles a little, watching them Aug 26 20:51:24 *Emil covers his eyes. Bir bounces, saying “Pee-ya...” Aug 26 20:51:44 * Sascha looks confused, looking at Morgan Aug 26 20:51:53 what does that mean? Aug 26 20:52:48 I think its meant to be peek... Aug 26 20:52:54 peeka Aug 26 20:54:13 *Emil takes his hand off his face, and Bir says “Boo!” before laughing like HH * Aug 26 20:55:13 Sound like anyone we know?

Aug 26 21:06:03 * Morgan winces Aug 26 21:06:05 *Otto glances at Morgan, smiling slightly* Aug 26 21:06:34 *Varick looks suitably chastised* Sorry Mama, I just wanted to tell the story Aug 26 21:07:24 *Molly looks more upset than Varick, and comes to hug him, awkward with Emil on her hip and Hirschen in her belly* Aug 26 21:09:17 * Morgan watches them quietly Aug 26 21:11:32 *Otto comes over, offering to take Emil from her so she can do it* Aug 26 21:32:33 * Sascha has quit (Read error: EOF from client)
