They tour the house, upstairs where the nursery faces the north, and an extra bedroom west. Then HH opens the door to the east facing one, grinning Dec 10 18:35:18 This be Milady’s bedchamber... Dec 10 18:35:49 *Inga blushes, going to take HH’s hand. Molly smiles at Morgan* Dec 10 18:36:57 Should be warm with that extra insulation....

Dec 10 19:02:17 * Morgan moves, pulling her into a hug Dec 10 19:02:29 * Morgan whispers "thank you" Dec 10 19:05:07 * Inga hugs him “When we talked about it and whether you'd want it, and whether Molly would accept you having it, I just couldn't bear the idea of Sascha maybe accidentally untying it, or throwing it away.” Dec 10 19:05:33 * Morgan nods, kissing the side of her head before letting go Dec 10 19:06:14 * Inga smiles a little “I’m glad you like it” Dec 10 19:06:37 * Morgan nods, carefully rolling it and putting it inside his jacket Dec 10 19:06:48 Heinzharold and I went there first thing the morning we left so he could check it was the right one Dec 10 19:07:04 I wasn't sure Sascha would want to part with it Dec 10 19:07:36 She didn’t know what it was Dec 10 19:08:25 * Morgan nods a little Dec 10 19:09:14 Heinzharold is going to start one for Thirteen Dec 10 19:09:33 I think thats a good idea Dec 10 19:10:35 * Inga smiles Dec 10 19:11:06 That was all Dec 10 19:11:21 * Morgan nods Dec 10 19:11:26 Thank you love.

Dec 10 19:54:30 I'll help if you want me to Dec 10 19:57:44 *HH nods. They work together, it doesn’t take long.

Inga says “Are we still alright to come for dinner?” Dec 10 20:03:15 * Morgan nods Dec 10 20:03:20 Of course Dec 10 20:04:37 *Molly smiles, leaving the room* Dec 10 20:04:56 HH: See you at seven, man Dec 10 20:05:01 We'll see ourselves out Dec 10 20:05:37 *HH nods* Thanks Dec 10 20:06:19 * Inga looks very happy.
