**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jan 19 07:24:51 2026 Jan 19 07:24:51 * Morgan (~madisonst@192.168.1.129) has joined Jan 19 07:25:44 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Jan 19 18:08:38 * Morgan (~madisonst@192.168.1.129) has joined Jan 19 19:13:41 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.101) has joined Jan 19 19:14:54 *He starts to dream in the thread where he'd tutored her, then they'd developed feelings and these had manifested in him pleasuring her on the boat that sank. Once they'd settled a little in Die Dauerhaftigkeit they'd met Edward who was a few months widowed, and his traumatised little girl Maria. Edward had suggested he marry Molly instead as the girl liked her so much. MTF Jan 19 19:15:20 Weeks have passed, many delays of her family wanting to be present, and the banns being re-read, the priest being ill. He has started to settle in himself, and he and Edward are in an easier place, united a little by their pain and losses. MTF Jan 19 19:15:50 Another week is due to pass before they're married, and on this very rainy day Morgan has just come from three hours with Adalbrecht, learning about becoming Graf. He's looking for Molly. Jan 19 19:15:55 ((done)) Jan 19 19:16:32 * Morgan searches for her Jan 19 19:16:55 *he reaches the door of the room she’s been given* Jan 19 19:19:07 * Morgan listens before knocking Jan 19 19:19:30 *he hears a giggle before she says “Come in, Morgan” Jan 19 19:21:07 * Morgan goes in Jan 19 19:22:52 * Molly is reclined on a chaise, an open book resting on the back of it. The hemline of her dress is above her knees. She smiles “It sounds very wet out there...” Jan 19 19:24:37 * Morgan nods Jan 19 19:24:39 Does a bit Jan 19 19:25:30 * Molly nods “There’s not much to do on a day like this...” She keeps her gaze on him as she gently sucks the tips of her fingers* Jan 19 19:26:34 Oh I don't know... my father had plenty for me to do Jan 19 19:26:55 was it quite captivating? Jan 19 19:27:44 It was interesting Jan 19 19:29:50 * Molly nods, making no effort to lower her dress “Your day can only get less interesting from there?” Jan 19 19:30:49 * Morgan shrugs Jan 19 19:30:52 What ar you reading? Jan 19 19:31:22 * Molly smiles “A vodacce romance” Jan 19 19:31:58 On purpose? Jan 19 19:32:56 * Molly nods “It turns out, if you have a title, you can just write to a bookshop and tell them what you want, and they’ll send it to you! You don’t even have to send money!” Jan 19 19:34:38 Uhhh.. you will have to pay for it Jan 19 19:35:08 Oh... but they haven’t asked me to? Jan 19 19:35:23 They'll invoice you... or maybe me... Jan 19 19:37:24 Oh... My family haven’t given me any money... Jan 19 19:40:08 There's a surprise... they've been unfailingly unhelpful Jan 19 19:41:44 * Molly nods “I know. You’d think they’d be glad to be rid of me and be as quick about it as possible “ Jan 19 19:43:33 They need to stop dragging their feet about it Jan 19 19:46:13 * Molly nods Jan 19 19:46:36 The date is set now, and I think we should go ahead whether they’re here or not Jan 19 19:47:21 I agree Jan 19 19:50:50 * Molly smiles “What are you planning to do on this wet afternoon?” Jan 19 19:51:57 I don't really have any plans right now Jan 19 19:53:23 * Molly nods, smiling “Would you like to spend it with me?” Jan 19 19:53:34 * Morgan nods Jan 19 19:53:35 aye Jan 19 19:55:05 I’m taking up all the chaise... I’m not sure where to put you... Jan 19 19:57:35 * Morgan watches her, smiling a little Jan 19 19:59:57 * Molly smiles mischievously “I suppose you could sit on the floor... or maybe you have a better idea?” Jan 19 20:00:28 * Morgan shrugs Jan 19 20:00:32 I can sit on the floor Jan 19 20:02:31 * Molly nods, watching him do so Jan 19 20:04:47 ((facing her, facing away?)) Jan 19 20:05:29 * Morgan sits down, facing her Jan 19 20:07:14 * Molly shifts, kissing his forehead Jan 19 20:07:26 I don’t get to see much of you alone Jan 19 20:08:10 No... part of my role I suppose Jan 19 20:10:25 * Molly nods, stroking his cheek. It was a while ago that he’d been quite intimate with her, but the scent of her arousal is familiar “You’re in high demand” Jan 19 20:10:37 * Morgan nods Jan 19 20:10:39 Apparently so Jan 19 20:12:02 Are you pleased we came here? Jan 19 20:13:47 Its... worked out fairly well so far Jan 19 20:15:34 * Molly nods “It’s a shame your friends won’t be here for the wedding, I really wanted to meet them” Jan 19 20:16:58 * Morgan nods sadly Jan 19 20:17:06 aye Jan 19 20:17:56 They’ll be here eventually. Besides, I might like to have you to myself a little while when we’re-finally- married Jan 19 20:19:24 * Morgan nods Jan 19 20:20:19 * Molly looks at him “You do feel the same?” Jan 19 20:21:19 * Morgan nod Jan 19 20:21:20 I do Jan 19 20:22:24 * Molly smiles “I wish we’d had longer that day the boat sank” Jan 19 20:23:15 * Morgan nods Jan 19 20:24:11 Do you think about it? You don’t mention it Jan 19 20:25:21 I'm just really busy... and the wedding isn't too far now Jan 19 20:26:00 But at night, when you’re not busy... Jan 19 20:29:11 I try not to think about it too much... it makes the temptation much worse Jan 19 20:30:43 * Molly looks surprised “Ohhh...” Jan 19 20:34:10 That has surprised you Jan 19 20:34:41 * Molly nods Jan 19 20:35:32 It has. You’ve barely mentioned that day, so I thought... I’m not sure what I thought Jan 19 20:35:40 * Morgan shakes his head Jan 19 20:36:16 As I say, I try not to think too much about it Jan 19 20:37:40 * Molly smiles “That’s a pity” Jan 19 20:40:19 * Morgan smiles a little Jan 19 20:40:24 perhaps Jan 19 20:40:45 * Molly fidgets to whisper in his ear “I Can’t tempt you then?” Jan 19 20:43:06 Best not Jan 19 20:44:18 You wouldn’t really lose your self control, would you? Jan 19 20:45:04 * Morgan shrugs Jan 19 20:45:08 I'd rather not find out Jan 19 20:46:06 * Molly sighs softly “back to putting what you taught me about into practice then” Jan 19 20:46:45 * Morgan nods Jan 19 20:46:47 I'm sorry Jan 19 20:47:58 * Molly nods “So am I. I suppose I thought once we were here it’d be like on the boat was” Jan 19 20:48:10 * Morgan smiles a little Jan 19 20:48:18 I want it to be right... Jan 19 20:49:20 Even though we already did it? Jan 19 20:50:21 Think of it as a demonstration of my regard for you Jan 19 20:50:36 * Molly looks perplexed Jan 19 20:51:01 Surely it looks more like the opposite? Jan 19 20:51:44 But it isn't. Jan 19 20:53:13 * Molly nods “It is killing me to wait so long!” Jan 19 20:56:35 It'll be worth it, hopefully Jan 19 20:56:57 * Molly smiles “You already proved to me that it will” Jan 19 20:57:21 * Morgan smiles a little Jan 19 20:57:23 I hope so Jan 19 20:59:41 * Molly gently kisses just below his ear before pulling away “I suppose we should talk about something else, before you end up as frustrated as me?” Jan 19 21:00:54 You think I am not already... you are wrong... but yes, we should. Jan 19 21:02:10 * Molly smiles with mischief “You’re not so frustrated as to get caught doing something about it on a rainy afternoon, so we’re not at the same level!” She sticks her tongue out at him Jan 19 21:03:15 Oh, you got caught... Jan 19 21:03:31 Mmmhmm Jan 19 21:06:15 Oh, by me... Jan 19 21:06:23 Yes! Jan 19 21:07:32 Ah, sorry... I shall leave you to it... Jan 19 21:07:46 You hadn’t realised?! Jan 19 21:08:37 * Morgan shakes his head Jan 19 21:08:39 Not really, no Jan 19 21:08:51 * Molly giggles “So innocent!” Jan 19 21:09:30 * Morgan shrugs Jan 19 21:09:33 So it would appear Jan 19 21:10:16 * Molly smiles innocently “You wouldn’t need to leave... As innocent as you are, how would you even know what I was doing?” Jan 19 21:11:13 You might have a point there... Jan 19 21:11:40 I would, but you’re wanting to wait *she giggles* Jan 19 21:13:34 * Morgan blushes Jan 19 21:15:13 * Molly kisses his cheek this time before leaning back, eyes closed. She smiles to herself Jan 19 21:18:32 What would you like to discuss? Jan 19 21:21:15 I don't know really... Jan 19 21:21:34 * Molly smiles, eyes still closed “you’re distracted now?” Jan 19 21:22:27 I'm always distracted Jan 19 21:22:35 By me? Jan 19 21:24:50 * Morgan nods Jan 19 21:25:13 Do I distract you from your sadness? Jan 19 21:26:42 * Morgan nods Jan 19 21:26:45 Yes, you do Jan 19 21:27:03 * Molly smiles Jan 19 21:27:24 Good. You can’t give in to the melancholy Jan 19 21:27:33 It has been difficult Jan 19 21:27:43 * Molly nods, watching him Jan 19 21:28:44 I’m here now. You’ll still be sad sometimes, but you’ll be happy too, when we are married and when we have babies Jan 19 21:30:41 * Morgan looks solemn Jan 19 21:30:43 Aye Jan 19 21:30:55 What?
