**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Aug 28 18:05:26 2025 Aug 28 18:05:26 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.101) has joined Aug 28 18:06:27 * Morgan nods, looking to Molly Aug 28 18:06:27 Come on, lets get you settled Aug 28 18:06:27 * Molly nods, going with him to their room Aug 28 18:06:27 *the room is neat, it probably smells nice but he can’t tell. She takes off her boots Aug 28 18:06:27 Something seems wrong with us Aug 28 18:06:29 does it? Aug 28 18:06:31 Do you not think so? You are decidedly ill-humoured with me Aug 28 18:06:33 * Molly sits on the bed “how honest would you have me be? There is already much troubling and upsetting you, and I’m wary of adding to your burdens” Aug 28 18:06:37 I would have you be honest... I do not appreciate you hiding things from me, pretending everything is alright Aug 28 18:06:38 * Molly nods Aug 28 18:06:40 Varick’s comments, sweet as they were, hurt me irrationally Aug 28 18:06:42 Why? Aug 28 18:07:25 * Molly sighs, looking guilty Aug 28 18:07:34 It made me feel so possessive... Aug 28 18:08:56 Of him? Aug 28 18:09:30 Less so. Of Hirschen... of the others we will make... Aug 28 18:10:02 * Morgan nods a little Aug 28 18:10:03 I see Aug 28 18:11:03 * Molly nods, looking upset “I do not want to feel like that. I am -better- than that” Aug 28 18:11:33 I think... its probably normal Aug 28 18:13:44 Is it? Aug 28 18:19:11 * Morgan nods Aug 28 18:19:32 Aside from the fact they will be -your- children, your emotions are somewhat heightened Aug 28 18:20:06 They will also be yours, and she was your wife... Aug 28 18:21:11 I didn't say it had to make -sense- Aug 28 18:22:00 * Molly sighs Aug 28 18:22:05 I’m sorry Aug 28 18:23:33 Its alright Aug 28 18:24:49 * Molly wraps her arms around herself Aug 28 18:25:19 Maybe I should use the shard to replenish so I can join you all Aug 28 18:25:46 * Morgan sits and puts his arms around her Aug 28 18:27:12 * Molly immediately moves into his arms without resistance or downplaying it, crying on his shoulder Aug 28 18:27:28 Come on, its alright Aug 28 18:29:28 * Molly continues to hold tightly to him, murmuring apologies between the sobs Aug 28 18:29:38 Its alright love Aug 28 18:30:10 I feel... so guilty... Aug 28 18:30:27 I know love Aug 28 18:31:10 * Molly continues to cry Aug 28 18:31:31 * Morgan rocks her gently Aug 28 18:33:32 * Molly starts to settle a little Aug 28 18:33:53 * Morgan continues rocking her Aug 28 18:34:50 * Molly shifts a little, gently kissing his neck Aug 28 18:36:04 Its alright love Aug 28 18:37:39 * Molly nods slightly, then does it again Aug 28 18:38:00 * Morgan sighs a little Aug 28 18:38:04 Love, come on... Aug 28 18:38:58 what? Aug 28 18:40:06 I know how you get when you're upset... Aug 28 18:40:21 * Molly moves away Aug 28 18:40:23 Sorry Aug 28 18:40:45 Its alright just... not now Aug 28 18:41:55 *there’s a knock on their door* Aug 28 18:42:21 * Morgan sighs, kissing her temple before going to answer the door Aug 28 18:43:27 *Mina is there and looking concerned* Varick said Molly wasn’t coming because she was tired Aug 28 18:43:47 * Morgan nods Aug 28 18:43:52 A bit wearied, yes... Aug 28 18:44:43 M: I thought I should come and see if she needed anything Aug 28 18:44:55 * Morgan nods, letting her in Aug 28 18:45:47 *Mina comes in, smiling gently* Are you finding it hard due to being enciente? Aug 28 18:46:04 sometimes Aug 28 18:46:36 * Molly nods a little, but Mina looks at Morgan “It’s intermittently tiring?” Aug 28 18:47:15 I suppose so Aug 28 18:48:05 Mina nods: I can sit with Molly if you needed to be with the family, I know time feels short today Aug 28 18:48:49 * Morgan looks at Molly Aug 28 18:49:27 * Molly nods “That will be fine, if you want to go” Aug 28 18:49:39 * Morgan looks torn Aug 28 18:49:51 Perhaps some female company will help... Aug 28 18:53:15 *Mina nods* I’m sure Edward would like to spend time with you Aug 28 18:53:47 [is that alright?] Aug 28 18:55:58 [yes] Aug 28 18:56:35 * Morgan nods Aug 28 18:56:37 Alright then Aug 28 18:57:56 Mina: could you please have some coffee sent to us? Aug 28 19:00:39 * Morgan nods Aug 28 19:00:40 Of course Aug 28 19:03:08 *Mina thanks him* Aug 28 19:03:40 * Morgan nods, leaving the room Aug 28 19:04:33 *he finds no maids in his kitchen * Aug 28 19:04:54 * Morgan rolls his eyes, heading down toward the main kitchen Aug 28 19:07:39 *there’s a few servants there, it’s very relaxed Aug 28 19:08:03 * Morgan taps on the doorframe Aug 28 19:08:45 * Molly is now known as Nanette Aug 28 19:09:05 * Nanette curtsies, as do the others Aug 28 19:09:41 Would one of you take coffee and two cups up to my rooms please? Molly and Mina are spending some time together Aug 28 19:11:06 Yes, your Excellency Aug 28 19:11:26 * Morgan thanks her, going looking for Edward Aug 28 19:12:56 * Nanette is now known as Edward Aug 28 19:13:24 * Edward is on the lawn helping Florrie throw the quoits Aug 28 19:13:43 * Morgan heads towards them, looking around Aug 28 19:14:58 *everyone except Molly, Mina, and Claudia are here Aug 28 19:18:41 * Morgan makes his way over Aug 28 19:19:57 * Edward smiles at Florrie “good job” Aug 28 19:22:07 Having fun? Aug 28 19:23:31 * Edward nods “We are. Get your rings back, Princess” Florrie goes, and he looks to Morgan, checking his expression Aug 28 19:23:47 * Morgan looks preoccupied Aug 28 19:25:36 * Edward looks to Alice “I’ll be back soon. Brother, a walk?” Aug 28 19:26:10 No, I won't take your time from them Aug 28 19:28:07 * Edward moves away from the others “Come with me, I am going to walk” Aug 28 19:28:42 * Morgan nods a little, walking Aug 28 19:31:53 * Edward watches him Aug 28 19:32:07 what’s on your mind? Aug 28 19:32:54 Molly's upset because she was feeling possessive because of something Varick said... each time she's used her magic, the effect she'd put on me disappears, and she doesn't mean it to... Aug 28 19:33:47 Are those things connected? Aug 28 19:35:18 I don't know... I was considering going looking for one of those little grey types Aug 28 19:36:44 * Edward nods Aug 28 19:36:57 What was the magic? Aug 28 19:37:21 She muted my sense of smell Aug 28 19:39:26 * Edward looks confused “why?” Aug 28 19:41:02 I've explained it to you before... Aug 28 19:41:23 *it seems to dawn on Edward* Ah, I see... Aug 28 19:42:36 * Morgan nods Aug 28 19:43:27 And she was trying to do something else at the same time? Aug 28 19:43:55 Literally just checking over the baby Aug 28 19:44:39 * Edward nods Aug 28 19:45:04 How do we find them? Aug 28 19:45:14 You'd find it unsettling... Aug 28 19:48:11 Less than you’d expect. Aug 28 19:49:15 * Morgan nods, concentrating on the Nieblungen Aug 28 19:49:20 Don't say I didn't warn you Aug 28 19:49:27 * Edward nods Aug 28 19:49:37 what is she upset about? Aug 28 19:51:40 Varick was explaining to Jacques how Jana is his sister, and that means Dietlinde is his mama in heaven... Aug 28 19:51:58 * Edward nods slowly Aug 28 19:52:03 go on... Aug 28 19:53:44 Molly felt possessive about it and is upset... add to that she told Varick off for nearly swearing, but she was a little over the top Aug 28 19:54:40 * Edward nods Aug 28 19:54:51 Is Mimi with her? Aug 28 19:54:56 * Morgan nods Aug 28 19:54:58 aye Aug 28 19:56:20 Good, good... Aug 28 19:57:04 How did she react to your falling asleep with Florrie? Aug 28 19:58:06 she doesn’t know Aug 28 19:58:30 What does she think you did for quiet hour? Aug 28 19:59:22 talked with Alice about the Acknowledgment Aug 28 19:59:35 *he hears Ballard barking* Aug 28 19:59:52 * Morgan looks around Aug 28 20:01:22 *he sees him by a tree * Aug 28 20:01:47 * Morgan turns to head that way, calling him to heel Aug 28 20:02:37 *the dog comes running to his side* Aug 28 20:04:58 Good boy... Aug 28 20:05:00 * Morgan heads for the tree Aug 28 20:05:52 *there’s a Nibelungen waiting* Aug 28 20:06:21 * Morgan glances at Edward briefly Aug 28 20:07:47 * Edward looks polite and formal Aug 28 20:08:18 * Morgan looks at the Nieblungen Aug 28 20:08:21 I need your help Aug 28 20:09:42 * Edward is now known as Nieblungen Aug 28 20:11:53 Yes? Aug 28 20:13:31 When Molly was checking over Sascha's daughter, and then when she checked herself, the magic she had used on me wore off... why? Aug 28 20:14:21 * Nieblungen pauses a moment Aug 28 20:14:50 She needs to rest and recharge Aug 28 20:15:13 But she had barely used her magic... why is she wearied so? Aug 28 20:16:28 She is with child Aug 28 20:17:20 Simple as that? Aug 28 20:20:26 Yes. She did not sleep well, she has been busy, she has used her magic several times, and she is with child Aug 28 20:20:36 * Morgan nods Aug 28 20:20:42 *Edward glances at Morgan, but says nothing* Aug 28 20:20:43 Rest or can she use the shard? Aug 28 20:21:10 Rest, shard, or coitus Aug 28 20:21:20 *Edward coughs briefly* Aug 28 20:21:56 * Morgan nods Aug 28 20:22:10 Understood.... Brother, is there anything you wish to ask? Most don't get this opportunity Aug 28 20:22:55 *Edward nods* Should I ask Alice and Florrie to move to Graben? Aug 28 20:23:28 Sometimes you will, sometimes you will not Aug 28 20:25:56 *Edward nods* Will they move to Graben with me? Aug 28 20:26:04 Sometimes. Aug 28 20:27:21 *Edward nods slowly* Is there any danger at present to Graben from the werewolves in the mountains? Aug 28 20:27:24 No. Aug 28 20:27:36 *He nods* Thank you Aug 28 20:28:33 * Morgan inclines his head Aug 28 20:28:36 Thank you for your help Aug 28 20:29:01 * Nieblungen steps behind the tree Aug 28 20:30:31 * Nieblungen is now known as Edward Aug 28 20:30:44 * Edward looks around Aug 28 20:30:52 do we move on? Aug 28 20:30:58 * Morgan nods Aug 28 20:31:00 We do Aug 28 20:33:35 * Edward nods, walking again Aug 28 20:33:41 Are you satisfied? Aug 28 20:34:43 * Morgan nods Aug 28 20:34:57 Aye, I suppose I am... you find their answers.. unsatisfying? Aug 28 20:35:29 * Edward nods Aug 28 20:35:32 I do Aug 28 20:36:13 I should've warned you about that Aug 28 20:36:45 * Edward smiles Aug 28 20:37:06 I was tempted to ask if Mimi is pregnant Aug 28 20:38:29 But if he had said no... Aug 28 20:40:11 * Edward shrugs Aug 28 20:40:24 Then we would try again next month Aug 28 20:40:55 * Morgan nods Aug 28 20:40:57 True Aug 28 20:42:10 * Edward smiles Aug 28 20:42:41 I would like her to be, of course, but I am not going to give up Aug 28 20:43:00 * Morgan nods Aug 28 20:43:01 Of course Aug 28 20:44:12 * Edward nods Aug 28 20:44:45 given the only other alternative is the Vaticine Method... Aug 28 20:46:21 And you don't exactly have good form for that Aug 28 20:46:40 * Edward chuckles Aug 28 20:47:11 I’ll have you know I am -excellent- at doing so in a timely and tidy manner. Aug 28 20:48:04 Uh huh... have a look behind that tree would you, see if he's still there Aug 28 20:49:31 *he does go to look* Aug 28 20:50:20 * Morgan smiles a little, throwing a stick for Ballard Aug 28 20:50:41 * Edward comes back Aug 28 20:50:47 Completely gone Aug 28 20:51:55 * Morgan nods Aug 28 20:52:00 They just disappear Aug 28 20:52:14 * Edward nods, watching the dog fetch the stick Aug 28 20:52:39 Molly did not sleep well? Aug 28 20:52:47 No, she had a nightmare Aug 28 20:54:13 Might that have been the salient point about her lethargy? Aug 28 20:54:37 Apparently so Aug 28 20:56:05 * Edward nods Aug 28 20:56:21 was it one of those paths? Aug 28 20:56:31 No, just a nightmare Aug 28 20:58:11 * Edward nods Aug 28 20:58:56 *Ballard drops the stick in front of Edward, so he throws it* Rest, shard, or... Aug 28 20:59:22 * Morgan nods Aug 28 20:59:24 mmhmm Aug 28 21:01:53 * Edward chuckles Aug 28 21:02:12 They don’t look like they should know about that Aug 28 21:02:34 * Morgan shrugs Aug 28 21:02:43 Their compounds, there's women there... I think Aug 28 21:05:08 Human women?: Aug 28 21:05:12 ?! Aug 28 21:05:55 No, Nieblungen woman Aug 28 21:07:56 * Edward nods Aug 28 21:08:13 That’s better Aug 28 21:08:28 * Morgan nods Aug 28 21:09:02 Its like talking to young children... Aug 28 21:09:14 * Edward nods Aug 28 21:09:17 yes Aug 28 21:11:50 * Morgan nods Aug 28 21:12:28 *He throws the stick again* Have you told her what they said, or are you going to do it in person? Aug 28 21:14:07 I'll tell her shortly... I think time to talk to Mina might help Aug 28 21:15:13 * Edward nods Aug 28 21:15:30 It will do her good to talk about those feelings with someone other than you Aug 28 21:17:12 * Morgan nods Aug 28 21:17:16 I think so, yes Aug 28 21:19:02 Don’t be offended, brother, it’s just that she will be freer to talk with her Aug 28 21:19:51 * Morgan nods Aug 28 21:19:53 I know Aug 28 21:22:01 * Edward nods “Difficult to handle, I imagine “ Aug 28 21:22:24 Not so much as you might imagine Aug 28 21:23:13 enlighten me, because that is a surprise Aug 28 21:47:01 * Edward has quit (Read error: EOF from client)
