**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Aug 29 20:40:36 2025 Aug 29 20:40:36 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.101) has joined Aug 29 20:42:16 *He throws the stick again* Have you told her what they said, or are you going to do it in person? Aug 29 20:42:16 I'll tell her shortly... I think time to talk to Mina might help Aug 29 20:42:16 * Edward nods Aug 29 20:42:16 It will do her good to talk about those feelings with someone other than you Aug 29 20:42:16 * Morgan nods Aug 29 20:42:21 I think so, yes Aug 29 20:42:23 Don’t be offended, brother, it’s just that she will be freer to talk with her Aug 29 20:42:25 * Morgan nods Aug 29 20:42:27 I know Aug 29 20:42:29 * Edward nods “Difficult to handle, I imagine “ Aug 29 20:42:31 Not so much as you might imagine Aug 29 20:42:33 enlighten me, because that is a surprise Aug 29 20:43:02 Sometimes women need the company of women to really get their heads around it... and she needs to be able to express it without fear that it might be hurting me Aug 29 20:43:30 * Molly is now known as Edward Aug 29 20:43:34 * Edward nods Aug 29 20:44:05 I agree, though I do not find it difficult to serve as a sounding board for the ladies Aug 29 20:44:19 You know why that is Aug 29 20:45:56 * Edward rolls his eyes Aug 29 20:46:09 lt is not because I am a girl Aug 29 20:46:23 It is though Aug 29 20:47:14 No, it is because I understand women, for the most part Aug 29 20:48:29 God knows how Aug 29 20:49:36 * Edward chuckles Aug 29 20:49:56 I’ll tell you the ultimate secret to women, shall I? Aug 29 20:53:13 Go on then Aug 29 20:53:32 They’re crazy. Aug 29 20:53:47 Well I knew that Aug 29 20:54:38 * Edward smiles Aug 29 20:56:24 I was joking brother. They are just changeable. If you stop expecting them to behave predictably and rationally like a man, you’ll have an easier time with them Aug 29 20:56:59 * Morgan shrugs Aug 29 20:57:05 I don't really expect anyone to behave rationally Aug 29 20:57:28 * Edward chuckles Aug 29 20:57:37 alright then Aug 29 21:00:26 * Edward throws the stick again “are you coming back to Father?” Aug 29 21:01:28 * Morgan nods Aug 29 21:01:30 I think so Aug 29 21:04:49 * Edward nods slowly Aug 29 21:05:00 You’re worried you’re doing the wrong thing? Aug 29 21:05:29 * Morgan smiles a little Aug 29 21:05:34 Almost constantly in one way or another Aug 29 21:07:00 * Edward laughs Aug 29 21:07:07 and right now? Aug 29 21:09:15 * Morgan nods Aug 29 21:09:16 Aye Aug 29 21:10:35 you’re thinking you’re abandoning her when she needs you? Aug 29 21:10:56 * Morgan nods Aug 29 21:11:05 And if I go to her, I'm ignoring father on his birthday... Aug 29 21:12:31 * Edward nods Aug 29 21:12:57 And missing out on time with Florrie? Aug 29 21:14:43 * Morgan nods Aug 29 21:14:44 aye Aug 29 21:16:06 it’s difficult being in demand Aug 29 21:16:31 * Morgan nods Aug 29 21:16:35 Yes, it can be Aug 29 21:18:01 * Edward nods “I could go to Molly if you need” Aug 29 21:18:44 So -you- miss out time with father and Florrie? No... Aug 29 21:21:01 * Edward nods Aug 29 21:21:22 She is also missing out. Perhaps the shard would be better than rest Aug 29 21:21:40 perhaps Aug 29 21:23:26 * Edward nods, smirking as they walk, but saying nothing Aug 29 21:24:22 I'd best go let her know I suppose Aug 29 21:26:04 You just want to see the look on her face that the Nieblungen recommended Coitus Aug 29 21:28:12 Oh she knows that already Aug 29 21:28:23 [I have spoken with the Nieblungen] Aug 29 21:29:46 [Have you?] Aug 29 21:29:54 * Edward chuckles Aug 29 21:30:07 Do they say it often? Aug 29 21:30:37 [its something we are aware replenishes her] Aug 29 21:30:48 its something we are aware replenishes her Aug 29 21:31:11 [They said its because you are pregnant... rest or using the shard will work] Aug 29 21:31:16 * Edward smiles faintly Aug 29 21:31:30 In my experience, it usually does the opposite with women Aug 29 21:32:09 Not with that one... Aug 29 21:34:18 * Edward chuckles Aug 29 21:34:45 ‘That one’? Not flattering, brother Aug 29 21:34:56 * Morgan shrugs Aug 29 21:35:03 Not as bad as what Emmilene calls Claudia... Aug 29 21:35:21 Oh? Aug 29 21:36:12 She's 'that Claudia' Aug 29 21:37:32 * Edward chuckles Aug 29 21:37:44 Does she know that? Aug 29 21:38:09 [what would you prefer I do?] Aug 29 21:39:05 Aye, she does... she doesn't know the Nieblungen call her 'the woman Claudia' though Aug 29 21:39:14 [either will work love] Aug 29 21:40:27 * Edward sniggers Aug 29 21:40:34 [alright] Aug 29 21:42:08 [if you use the shard you could join everyone] Aug 29 21:43:41 [yes, my love] Aug 29 21:44:02 *he and Edward get nearer the others* I wonder how Zench is faring Aug 29 21:45:34 I dread to think Aug 29 21:46:38 Occasionally Mimi still does that thing they do with making the noise when I am off-guard Aug 29 21:47:13 * Morgan nods Aug 29 21:47:22 We really must find a way to get her back... Aug 29 21:47:34 Heidi? Aug 29 21:48:59 * Morgan nods Aug 29 21:50:21 * Edward nods Aug 29 21:50:38 I suppose you could make a similar noise back to her Aug 29 21:51:19 Doubt that'd do any good... besides, she thinks I'm weird Aug 29 21:51:29 * Edward nods Aug 29 21:51:41 I’ve always said she’s a good judge of character Aug 29 21:52:31 I didn't say she was wrong Aug 29 21:55:01 * Edward nods Aug 29 21:55:16 I don’t think Zench has ever been celibate so long Aug 29 21:55:38 Gonn' be like pouring a pint of milk into a thimble Aug 29 21:56:39 * Edward grimaces Aug 29 21:56:52 Thank you for that mental image(!) Aug 29 21:57:11 * Morgan sniggers Aug 29 21:58:10 * Edward chuckles Aug 29 21:58:50 I think that was the same for most of us on our wedding day Aug 29 21:59:16 * Morgan nods Aug 29 21:59:18 I expect so Aug 29 22:00:02 * Edward nods, smiling to himself “At least he isn’t marrying a virgin” Aug 29 22:00:36 There is that I suppose Aug 29 22:01:34 And they know each other well. It will be more like a homecoming Aug 29 22:02:04 * Morgan nods Aug 29 22:02:06 I suppose it will Aug 29 22:02:22 He won’t have the nerves we did Aug 29 22:03:25 You reckon? Aug 29 22:04:52 She won’t be in pain... Aug 29 22:05:36 No, I suppose not... Aug 29 22:08:08 not unintentionally, at any rate Aug 29 22:08:34 * Morgan chuckles Aug 29 22:08:36 Yeah, quite Aug 29 22:10:24 He also won’t have to deal with any of the... *he waves his hand towards his crotch* Aug 29 22:10:47 * Morgan looks confused Aug 29 22:10:52 What the hell are you talking about? Aug 29 22:12:38 The blood *he grimaces* Aug 29 22:13:25 * Morgan nods Aug 29 22:13:30 Molly could probably arrange that though Aug 29 22:14:57 Why would anyone -want- that?! Aug 29 22:16:08 Elsie... after all she went through, got to live the full experience of marriage, including that part... as it should've been for her Aug 29 22:17:35 * Edward nods Aug 29 22:17:48 Because she’d previously been a working girl... Aug 29 22:18:06 * Morgan sighs Aug 29 22:18:17 Because of what Dau did to her... Aug 29 22:18:53 * Edward nods Aug 29 22:19:17 You have always been. little vague on what happened to her Aug 29 22:19:39 * Morgan nods Aug 29 22:20:22 She doesn't need to see pity in anyones eyes... suffice to say, when we caught up with him, I had already made Claudia and HeinzHarold promise to keep me from exacting revenge... Aug 29 22:22:07 * Edward nods “You are extremely protective of her” Aug 29 22:26:38 * Morgan nods Aug 29 22:27:07 Initially I just wanted to put it as right as I could... when she was attacked, she had red hair... he called her Molly... Aug 29 22:28:42 * Edward hasn’t heard this before, missing all of Morgan’s distress in Tawstock when he’d cried for the first time in so long on telling that to HH Aug 29 22:32:59 He called her -your wife’s name-?: Aug 29 22:34:11 He was after Molly from the moment he laid eyes on her... Aug 29 22:34:32 Do we know why? Aug 29 22:35:31 She's not exactly unattractive... Aug 29 22:36:13 But this borders on obsessional... Aug 29 22:37:43 He made a play for her, she was escorted to her room, he went and took his frustrations out on a girl who looked a bit like her Aug 29 22:38:27 That is disgusting Aug 29 22:38:45 * Morgan nods Aug 29 22:38:47 Yes, it is Aug 29 22:39:31 Molly came very close to harm Aug 29 22:40:10 * Morgan nods Aug 29 22:40:25 I've seen a path where the man who escorted her was distracted elsewhere... Aug 29 22:40:47 And she was hurt? Aug 29 22:41:53 It broke her mind Aug 29 22:42:52 * Edward nods grimly Aug 29 22:43:01 That must have been difficult for you Aug 29 22:43:44 * Morgan nods Aug 29 22:43:46 Yes Aug 29 22:45:36 I imagine that made you very protective Aug 29 22:46:18 * Morgan nods Aug 29 22:46:49 Her wedding day... I noticed something in her eyes... the same look that Emil has, that Jana did... Aug 29 22:48:44 * Edward nods Aug 29 22:48:55 There looks to be a bond there Aug 29 22:50:27 * Morgan nods Aug 29 22:50:30 There is, definitely Aug 29 22:51:16 * Edward nods Aug 29 22:51:25 Does that make Molly jealous? Aug 29 22:52:26 God no... no, Elsie sees me as a father Aug 29 22:53:43 * Edward nods, smiling “I have heard a story about Molly asking if you would give her away to her previous fiance, if you saw yourself as a father figure to her” Aug 29 22:54:30 Definitely didn't Aug 29 22:55:11 * Edward chuckles “By then that would have been completely incompatible with your feelings towards her?l Aug 29 22:55:49 Indeed Aug 29 22:58:21 * Edward chuckles “I’d love to have seen the look on your face” Aug 29 22:58:39 I was much better at giving nothing away Aug 29 23:20:18 * Edward has quit (Read error: EOF from client)
