[20:19] * Molly waits at the small writing desk whilst he fetches a large sketchbook and all manner of mediums from Tao, charcoal, pencil, ink, pastels and paints, which the host was keen to foist upon him. Fully laden he arrives back at the room to find she's poured them each a glass of blokners though it isn't even noon

[20:35] (Molly) [20:19] * Molly waits at the small writing desk whilst he fetches a large sketchbook and all manner of mediums from Tao, charcoal, pencil, ink, pastels and paints, which the host was keen to foist upon him. Fully laden he arrives back at the room to find she's poured them each a glass of blokners though it isn't even noon
[20:36] (Molly) What do you have there, liebes herz?
[20:37] ** New query from Morgan (Available on submenu 'Windows')
[20:37] (@Morgan) I think the best description would be... 'things'
[20:39] * Molly moves the glasses to make space on the table. Her thin dressing gown slips from one shoulder. Her hair has mostly dried from her dip in the stream
[20:40] (Molly) Intriguing... You have paints
[20:41] (@Morgan) indeed I do
[20:42] * Molly looks through this little collection before opening the pad and selecting a pencil. She offers him a glass
[20:43] (Molly) Blokners, liebling?
[20:43] * @Morgan shrugs
[20:43] (@Morgan) I suppose
[20:43] * Molly looks up at him, bent over to draw the ship. She looks a little concerned
[20:44] (Molly) Is something wrong?
[20:44] (@Morgan) drinking at this hour... not normally something I'd do
[20:44] (@Morgan) mind you, it is a special occasion
[20:44] * Molly giggles
[20:45] (Molly) Yes, I'd guess being on honeymoon is also not normally something you'd do
[20:45] * @Morgan picks up the glass
[20:45] (@Morgan) no, I mean your birthday
[20:46] * Molly looks surprised
[20:46] (Molly) It is?!
[20:46] * @Morgan nods
[20:46] (@Morgan) so I'm told
[20:46] * Molly grins
[20:47] (Molly) Goodness! That makes me twenty, I suppose
[20:47] * @Morgan nods
[20:47] (@Morgan) I'd say so
[20:47] * Molly laughs
[20:48] (Molly) Well, I suppose that makes it time to grow up
[20:48] (@Morgan) Have you not met HeinzHarold?!
[20:50] (Molly) Very true! But I have a husband, and a child *she smiles fondly*, I suppose I didn't ought to be wandering around naked in a stranger's garden *she is clearly teasing*
[20:50] * @Morgan shrugs
[20:51] * Molly is still smiling as she draws ((how close is he stood?))
[20:52] (Molly) I am very fortunate to have so much in my life
[20:52] * @Morgan watches her
[20:53] (@Morgan) aye, we've both been rather lucky to get so much
[20:54] * Molly 's distances are all wrong, and she's drastically overestimated the width of the corridor, making it proportionally 10 feet rather than 5
[20:54] * Molly watches him, a hint of solemnity in her smile
[20:55] (Molly) We have indeed
[20:57] * @Morgan nods at the paper
[20:57] (@Morgan) your dimensions are a little off...
[20:58] * Molly blushes
[20:58] (Molly) They are?
[20:59] * @Morgan nods
[20:59] (@Morgan) little bit
[20:59] * Molly slides the drawing and pencil to him
[20:59] (Molly) Would you mind fixing it?
[21:00] * @Morgan picks up the pencil, closing his eyes for a moment before setting to work adjusting the drawing
[21:00] (Molly) Ahh I see. Yes, that won't work then *she sighs*
[21:01] * Molly comes to stand beside him to see it from the best perspective
[21:03] (Molly) Any ideas, liebling? *she picks up the blokners, sipping it without the look of distaste he sees on most non-sudlachenburgers faces*
[21:03] * @Morgan sighs, looking over the drawing
[21:09] (@Morgan) what about...
[21:09] * @Morgan draws in a couple of walls
[21:11] * Molly 's eyes light up
[21:11] (Molly) Liebes herz you are a genius!
[21:12] (Molly) Of course, we'll have to switch rooms, but that is no trouble
[21:12] * @Morgan nods
[21:13] * Molly moves the drawing a little, and sits on the desk. She watches him closely
[21:14] (Molly) How _did_ you end up so handsome, so honourable and so smart?
[21:14] (@Morgan) handsome and honourable is the Eisen part, smart is Avalonian...
[21:14] * @Morgan looks completely serious
[21:14] * Molly smiles warmly
[21:15] (Molly) Which would imply I am simply smart *she raises a playful eyebrow, sipping her drink*
[21:19] (@Morgan) thats not even silghtly what I said...
[21:23] * Molly watches him a moment, and he picks up that she's feeling unsure how he'll react based on his reaction to the suite, but braves it anyway
[21:24] (Molly) Unless, of course, I have a little Eisen in me... *her expression shows that this is meant as inappropriately as possible*
[21:25] * @Morgan laughs
[21:25] (@Morgan) you, my lass, are a bad girl
[21:26] * Molly laughs, and her eyes linger on his
[21:26] (Molly) Perhaps... Perhaps that needs fixing
[21:27] * @Morgan looks intrigued
[21:29] * Molly actually blushes, expecting an entirely different reaction. He sees her pulse flicker faster. 
[21:30] (Molly) Unless you like me so?
[21:30] (@Morgan) it certainly has its charms
[21:31] * Molly smiles
[21:32] (Molly) Besides, we both know it's far more than _a little_ Eisen *she giggles, emptying a sizeable amount of the blokners in one swallow*
[21:33] * @Morgan blushes
[21:35] (Molly) Handsome, honourable, smart, and more than a little Eisen... Plus good at sketching. What more could a girl ask for?
[21:36] * @Morgan thinks
[21:36] (@Morgan) someone who is funny, can cook, can fire an arrow and expect it to be somewhere near its target...
[21:37] * Molly laughs, hopping off the desk
[21:38] (Molly) You are funny...perhaps not in a conventional way, but you charm and amuse me a great deal
[21:38] * Molly downs the remainder of her drink
[21:39] (@Morgan) I amuse a great many people, until they realise I'm serious
[21:40] (Molly) You do have a knack for making your threats seem humourous initially. 
[21:42] (Molly) Your cooking is perfectly fine... *she looks thoughtful* As for the archery....
[21:44] * Molly thinks hard before shrugging
[21:47] (Molly) We women aren't hugely interested in bows and arrows. Watching you fight with a sword displays your strength and agility better, as well as the way your muscles move. We don't watch duels to see who will win. *she winks*
[21:53] * @Morgan nods slowly
[21:53] (@Morgan) I'm not completely surprised
[21:53] * Molly laughs softly
[21:54] (Molly) I haven't just added another reason to the list for why I am a bad girl? *she smiles*
[21:54] (@Morgan) possibly, aye
[21:54] * @Morgan nods, sipping the blokners
[21:55] (Molly) Oh dear, I do hope you have enough paper to record all my misdeeds!
[21:56] (@Morgan) I have a good memory
[21:57] * Molly watches him, looking intrigued as well as if unsure he meant it as she perceived it
[21:57] (Molly) That will serve you well
[21:57] (@Morgan) it has its benefits
[21:58] * Molly picks up the sketchpad, removing the picture of the Rose which she lays beside the blokners. 
[21:59] (Molly) *she looks briefly puzzled before replying* Good... What do you prefer to sketch with?
[22:00] (@Morgan) sketch what?
[22:01] * Molly looks to him. Her expression is a mix of confidence and a hint of shyness
[22:01] (Molly) Me
[22:01] * @Morgan looks at her for a moment before looking at the table
[22:02] (@Morgan) pencil and charcoal I think
[22:02] (Molly) If you do not wish to, I will not be offended
[22:02] * Molly pours a small measure of blokners into her glass
[22:02] * @Morgan looks confused
[22:02] (@Morgan) what gives you that idea?
[22:03] * Molly watches him, biting her lower lip
[22:04] (Molly) The way you paused... Your discomfort at the suite and its purpose
[22:04] (@Morgan) The pause was to consider which'd suit best
[22:05] (Molly) Oh! *she blushes* I'm sorry
[22:06] * @Morgan shrugs
[22:06] * Molly picks up the pencil and charcoal, tucking the pad under her arm so she can carry her glass. She goes quiet as she heads to the door
[22:06] (@Morgan) as for the suite... well, I'm just awkward at those sort of things
[22:08] * Molly watches him, slowly heading to the door
[22:08] (Molly) Possibly due to your father's... Attitudes?
[22:09] (@Morgan) possibly... or because I'm just a bit backwards
[22:09] * Molly laughs
[22:09] (Molly) You aren't backwards! Perhaps _I_ am a little too _forewards_
[22:11] (@Morgan) No... even I can see I'm overly awkward about it
[22:12] (Molly) *they head out into the sunshine, and she leads him to a shaded place beside a large tree
[22:13] (Molly) It is your gentlemanly reserve I think *she no longer seems to be teasing him, her tone gentle*
[22:13] * @Morgan shrugs
[22:13] (@Morgan) maybe
[22:13] * Molly sits at the base of the tree, reclining against it
[22:14] (Molly) Is it recent, this awkwardness, as you put it?
[22:15] (@Morgan) relatively, aye
[22:15] * @Morgan sits down, reaching for the paper
[22:16] * Molly nods a little, thoughtful. She looks to him with a warm smile
[22:16] (Molly) You probably won't like what I am going to ask next then
[22:16] * @Morgan raises an eyebrow, wary
[22:17] * Molly giggles
[22:17] (Molly) Quite how naked would you wish me to be for your sketch?
[22:17] (@Morgan) how naked would you like to be?
[22:18] * Molly bites her lower lip, feeling a mixture of desire and amusement
[22:19] (Molly) I believe I asked you first, my Lord
[22:19] * @Morgan shrugs slightly
[22:20] (@Morgan) I would not like you to feel... uncomfortable
[22:20] * Molly smiles
[22:21] (Molly) I never feel uncomfortable when you see me undressed. In fact I did not feel uncomfortable when I nearly drowned and I undressed in front of you
[22:23] (@Morgan) in that case, nude
[22:24] * Molly nods, removing her gown. She appears utterly relaxed and at ease, and doesn't speak for several minutes, though smiles reassuringly whenever they make eye contact
[22:26] * @Morgan sketches industriously, often stopping to rub at the paper with his thumb
[22:26] * Molly watches him with interest
[22:27] (Molly) Do you find it easy in these situations to separate the art from the nakedness?
[22:28] * @Morgan looks at her
[22:28] (@Morgan) No...
[22:28] * Molly smiles, blushing hard
[22:29] (Molly) I am unsure whether I should be giving you commiserations or congratulating myself
[22:29] * @Morgan chuckles, rubbing at the paper
[22:31] (Molly) Is it more challenging to sketch women nude rather than clothed? Not because of the eroticism, but because of the lines, the shapes, the lack of detail from clothing?
[22:32] * Molly looks utterly fascinated
[22:32] * @Morgan looks to the sky, thoughtful
[22:32] (@Morgan) I cant say I've really considered it... its just...
[22:32] * @Morgan pauses, looking for a word
[22:33] * Molly smiles gently, encouragingly but without demand
[22:34] (@Morgan) I just put what I see, or remember, onto paper... the different styles I use is just... interpretation I suppose
[22:35] * Molly nods
[22:35] (Molly) I'd love to be able to do it
[22:36] (@Morgan) it can be very cathartic
[22:37] (Molly) I suppose that applies to all of your sketches, not just nudes?
[22:37] * @Morgan nods
[22:37] (@Morgan) mostly
[22:37] * Molly smiles
[22:38] (Molly) Does it make it harder that I keep talking?
[22:39] * @Morgan shakes his head
[22:39] (@Morgan) No... though if you move around too much it will
[22:39] * Molly nods
[22:39] * @Morgan licks his thumb before dragging it in an arc over the paper
[22:39] * Molly watches
[22:40] (Molly) What does that do?
[22:40] (@Morgan) smudges the charcoal and pencil
[22:41] * Molly smiles
[22:41] (Molly) What is the hardest part of me to draw?
[22:42] (@Morgan) your ears...
[22:42] * @Morgan frowns
[22:42] (@Morgan) I'm not good at ears
[22:42] * Molly laughs
[22:43] (Molly) I think of all parts in a nude sketch, ears command the least attention!
[22:43] (@Morgan) that doesn't mean any less effort should be made for them
[22:45] (Molly) You are a perfectionist in your art also... Why did you stop drawing?
[22:45] * @Morgan looks at her
[22:46] (@Morgan) who says I did?
[22:46] * Molly shrugs a little
[22:47] (Molly) I suppose I thought so as I'd never seen you do it, or anything you'd drawn
[22:47] (@Morgan) I didn't have anything nice to draw for a long time... I've got the book I sketched in somewhere...
[22:47] * Molly nods
[22:48] (Molly) I'd be fascinated to see it... *she looks thoughtful* is this the first time you've sketched me?
[22:49] * @Morgan blushes
[22:50] * Molly smiles, biting her lower lip, eyes sparkling with mischief
[22:50] (Molly) But it is the first time you've sketched me nude?
[22:51] * @Morgan speaks slowly
[22:51] (@Morgan) yes...
[22:51] * Molly watches him closely
[22:51] (Molly) ...but...?
[22:53] (@Morgan) well... just
[22:53] * Molly looks a little confused, but very relaxed, intrigued
[22:54] (Molly) I rather think I'd like to know what you mean
[22:55] * @Morgan looks at the paper carefully for a moment
[22:56] (@Morgan) you've got a shift on, but thats about it
[22:57] * Molly 's pupils dilate enough to make his sketch slightly inaccurate
[22:57] (Molly) Interesting...  Would it discomfort you to tell me when and why you drew it?
[22:58] * @Morgan sighs slightly
[22:58] (@Morgan) it was after you fell into the pool... I couldn't get the image out of my head, so I tried by putting it on paper
[22:59] * Molly looks a little surprised, smiling. She fidgets a little
[23:00] (Molly) Did it work?
[23:00] * @Morgan shakes his head
[23:01] * Molly watches him, a little flushed, certainly pleased
[23:01] (Molly) What happened to it?
[23:02] (@Morgan) I've still got it somewhere
[23:02] * Molly giggles
[23:02] (Molly) The sketch, or the image in your head?
[23:03] * @Morgan glances at her
[23:03] (@Morgan) yes
[23:03] * Molly smiles broadly
[23:04] (Molly) Did you bring it when you visited Eisen? The sketch, I mean?
[23:04] * @Morgan nods
[23:06] * Molly sucks on her lower lip a moment, deep in thought. It's at least a minute before she speaks again ((unless he'd say anything))
[23:08] (Molly) I'm not going to ask why, because I think asking such a question would require another entry upon my "bad girl" list
[23:08] * Molly grins playfully
[23:08] * @Morgan nods slowly
[23:08] (@Morgan) you might be right
[23:09] * @Morgan holds the paper at arms length for a moment
[23:09] (@Morgan) I think that'll about do it
[23:09] * Molly looks very briefly unsure of herself before then smiling
[23:10] (Molly) Can I move now?
[23:10] (@Morgan) realistically, you could've moved some time ago
[23:11] * Molly laughs
[23:11] (Molly) You should count yourself lucky I was unaware of such!
[23:11] * @Morgan sniggers
[23:12] * Molly tilts her head
[23:12] (Molly) That amuses you, liebes herz? *she grins*
[23:13] (@Morgan) if it offends you, then only mildly
[23:13] * Molly laughs
[23:14] (Molly) And if it doesn't?
[23:14] (@Morgan) if thats teh case, it amuses me quite a bit
[23:14] (Molly) Then you may be as amused as you please
[23:15] * Molly smiles
[23:16] * @Morgan smiles
[23:17] (Molly) Fortunately I respect artistic pursuits enough that I did not wish to interrupt you... But I can honestly say that at a particular moment, it was a _very_ hard won fight
[23:17] * @Morgan chuckles
[23:17] (@Morgan) get an itch did you?

[23:19] * Molly laughs softly
[23:20] (Molly) I was somewhat distracted by a desire to throw away the paper and put your hands to a much better use
[23:22] * @Morgan nods
[23:22] (@Morgan) but then you'd not get to see it
[23:22] * Molly nods
[23:23] (Molly) In that case, I would like my reward please
[23:23] * Molly smiles
[23:26] * Molly stands, coming to sit beside him, not bothering with her gown, and waits for him to show her
[23:27] * @Morgan turns the paper towards her
[23:28] * Molly looks shocked
[23:29] (Molly) Wow! Liebes herz... It's beautiful!
[23:31] * @Morgan looks it over
[23:31] (@Morgan) looks fairly accurate to me
[23:32] * Molly smiles softly, taking his hand
[23:32] (Molly) You make me beautiful
[23:32] * @Morgan snorts
[23:32] (@Morgan) rubbish, I just draw what I see
[23:33] * Molly smiles
[23:33] (Molly) Thank you, liebling. I love it. Was it easier than you expected?
[23:34] * @Morgan shrugs
[20:29] * Molly lays on her side in the cool grass, head propped on one hand whilst the other brings the glass of near-black blokners to her lips
[20:35] (Molly) Perhaps in a location where you are more at ease it would have been more difficult to remain focused on your art?
[20:38] (@Morgan) quite possibly, aye
[20:39] * Molly smiles gently
[20:39] (Molly) It is much better than the nude painting of Alarice
[20:39] (@Morgan) obviously
[20:40] * Molly giggles
[20:40] (Molly) You could make quite a bit of money from such work I think...
[20:41] (@Morgan) maybe...
[20:41] (@Morgan) maybe I could peddle my work to bored nobility
[20:43] * Molly smiles thoughtfully
[20:44] (Molly) Much as Innesbruck would benefit from the funds, the thought of you drawing other women like this brings out some rather possesive and somewhat Eisen thoughts *she laughs*
[20:45] (@Morgan) maybe I'll draw horses
[20:46] * Molly smiles, nodding
[20:46] (Molly) Perhaps that'd be wise. I am curious about something though...
[20:47] (@Morgan) that being?
[20:48] (Molly) You once said you were still a virgin at the end of the war despite HeinzHarold's best efforts... Were you never tempted to at least sketch the girls he suggested?
[20:48] * Molly looks interested, not at all jealous 
[20:49] (@Morgan) Its not commonly known that I do it...
[20:50] * Molly sips her drink, watching him. She smirks slightly
[[20:50] (Molly) Sketch, or draw women naked?
[20:51] * @Morgan smiles
[20:51] (@Morgan) the former
[20:52] (Molly) HeinzHarold does not know?
[20:53] * @Morgan shrugs
[20:53] (@Morgan) he's seen me sketch, but he's never really been interested in the results...
[20:53] * @Morgan smirks slightly
[20:53] (@Morgan) it doesn't wear a skirt, he's not terribly interested
[20:54] * Molly laughs
[20:55] (Molly) What a quandary that would be! I am clearly not wearing a skirt in that picture, yet I normally do
[20:56] * @Morgan chuckles
[20:56] (@Morgan) I think its what you find under the skirt that commands his attention...
[20:56] * @Morgan looks slightly puzzled
[20:56] (@Morgan) I wonder what he'd make of the men of the highland marches...
[20:56] * Molly giggles
[20:57] (Molly) That would be... Enlightening for him
[20:57] * Molly smiles with fake innocence
[20:58] (Molly) What could possibly be so fascinating under a woman's skirt, I wonder...
[21:00] * Molly takes another drink
[21:00] (@Morgan) I couldn't begin to speculate
[21:00] (421) she :Unknown command
[21:01] * Molly giggles
[21:02] (Molly) You could, but you won't. *she smiles* we must find somewhere safe for such sketches on the Rose, away from prying eyes
[21:02] * @Morgan nods
[21:03] (Molly) If you can locate the first one, I would dearly love to see it
[21:04] ** New query from Morgan (Available on submenu 'Windows')
[21:05] (@Morgan) I'll fish it out for you
[21:05] * Molly smiles, her tone playful, but he can tell she's carefully watching his reaction
[21:06] (Molly) I wonder how Jaeger would have reacted
[21:06] (@Morgan) outrage and threats, probably... which would've lasted until he was actually near me
[21:07] * Molly nods
[21:08] (Molly) I suspect he'd have been more angry with me for my lack of modesty than with you
[21:09] (@Morgan) only because I'm more dangerous than he is
[21:10] * Molly smiles
[21:10] (Molly) You are more of most things than he was...
[21:13] (@Morgan) Eiblinn was more of most things compared to him
[21:14] (Molly) *she laughs softly* Did it trouble you, back then, that he would get to see beneath that shift on a daily basis?
[21:15] (@Morgan) it troubled me that he was not good enough for you
[21:15] * Molly blushes, looking a little ashamed
[21:17] (Molly) I do not think I was worth as much as you believe. I made grave errors in my dealings with him, errors that if I hadn't made, he may not have died
[21:17] * @Morgan scribbles absently
[21:18] (@Morgan) No, his death was caused by his rather overkeen tendancy to flaunt he could create balls of flame
[21:18] * Molly nods slowly, shaking the negativity. She smiles at him
[21:19] (Molly) Which now seem somewhat unimpressive
[21:19] (@Morgan) something that bothers me...
[21:20] * Molly watches him, concerned
[21:20] (Molly) Yes, liebling?
[21:20] (@Morgan) If that flame is consistent with the wall of flame...
[21:20] (@Morgan) no, let me come at it from another angle...
[21:21] * @Morgan scribbles frantically for a moment before slowing again
[21:21] * Molly tilts her head, intrigued at his sketching
[21:21] (@Morgan) I can create flames that cant be extinguished by wind, snuffing it out... or dousing it in water...
[21:21] * Molly nods
[21:21] (Molly) Correct
[21:22] * @Morgan stops briefly, looking at her
[21:22] (@Morgan) how much.. _stronger_ is the person that could make that wall of flame...
[21:22] * Molly watches him carefully
[21:23] (Molly) I can see why that could be a concern...
[21:23] * @Morgan nods, moving the pencil once more
[21:23] * Molly sips her blokners
[21:24] (Molly) Would you welcome an additional perspective?
[21:24] * @Morgan nods
[21:25] (Molly) How _long_ has that person had the power you have just developed? Or how many of them with your level of power worked together to create it?
[21:25] * @Morgan nods slowly
[21:26] * Molly smiles wryly
[21:26] (Molly) I'm certain both options will allow you to rest easier (!)
[21:27] (@Morgan) oh, absolutely
[21:29] * Molly smiles gently
[21:29] (Molly) What are you drawing?
[21:31] * @Morgan turns it round to show her, a large black and silver wolf stalking amongst trees
[21:31] * Molly leans forward, getting a better look
[21:32] (Molly) Beautiful, liebes herz. Have you seen it somewhere?
[21:32] * @Morgan shakes his head
[21:32] (@Morgan) No...
[21:33] (Molly) Your choice intrigues me... But in all fairness, everything about you intrigues me
[21:34] * Molly goes quiet, looking thoughtful
[21:35] (Molly) I wonder how I would have felt about the wet shift sketch, had I made the discovery at the time
[21:36] * Molly mulls it over
[21:37] * Molly watches him a moment, trying to read his expression, before speaking
[[21:41] * @Morgan looks mildly concerned
[21:41] (@Morgan) livid, I would've thought
[21:41] * Molly shakes her head
[21:41] (Molly) Definitely not livid
[21:42] (Molly) Frustrated... Confused...
[21:43] * Molly continues to try to read his reactions
[21:44] * @Morgan looks somewhat guilty
[21:44] (Molly) Neither of those words suffice without explanation
[21:45] * Molly sips the blokners, not at all ill at ease
[21:46] (Molly) Frustrated because I couldn't have done anything to alleviate the image being unfortunately stuck in your mind
[21:49] * Molly watches him a moment before continuing
[21:50] * @Morgan nods slightly
[21:51] (Molly) Confused because there is no way I could have understood then the intensity of my reaction to the thought of you picturing me so afterwards
[21:52] * Molly smiles, slightly flushed
[21:53] (@Morgan) I think I understand
[21:55] * Molly raises a playful eyebrow
[21:56] (Molly) Are you sure? If you feel you need it explaining further... *she giggles*
[21:56] * @Morgan shakes his head slightly
[21:56] (@Morgan) I'll manage
[21:57] * Molly laughs
[21:59] (Molly) As you please, liebes herz. As long as you know I wouldn't have been, nor am now, at all displeased by it. I find it... *she searches for a word* compelling.
[22:00] * @Morgan nods
[22:01] * Molly watches him
[22:01] (Molly) You seem troubled, liebes herz. 
[22:04] (@Morgan) No, blossom... I was worried you;d be annoyed by it...
[22:04] * @Morgan takes a swallow of the blokners
[22:08] (Molly) God no! *she smiles, slightly nervous of the forthrightness of her next statement. She speaks a little quieter* I'm both flattered and rather... *she bites the left hand side of her lower lip a moment* aroused by it. *she blushes noticeably, though her smile remains*
[22:08] * @Morgan blushes
[22:10] (Molly) And now it is my turn to worry that _you_ are annoyed *she smiles wryly*
[22:11] * @Morgan shakes his head
[22:11] (@Morgan) not at all blossom
[22:11] ** New query from Morgan (Available on submenu 'Windows')
[22:11] * Molly looks relieved
[22:11] (Molly) Good. Had you planned to tell me?
[22:11] * @Morgan shrugs
[22:11] (@Morgan) No...
[22:12] * Molly smiles, finishing her blokners
[22:13] (Molly) Are naked women the most enjoyable things to draw? *she giggles*
[22:14] (@Morgan) would you believe women are quite a bit like ships to draw?
[22:14] * Molly laughs
[22:15] (Molly) Liebes herz! That is rather unflattering!
[22:15] * @Morgan raises an eyebrow
[22:15] (@Morgan) perhaps you need some perspective other than your own to understand it
[22:16] * Molly looks a little troubled 
[22:16] (Molly) I apologise, I was trying to be light hearted
[22:17] (@Morgan) you misunderstand me...
[22:18] * Molly smiles
[22:18] (Molly) That happens quite often
[22:19] * @Morgan nods
[22:19] (@Morgan) I do seem to talk in riddles
[22:19] (Molly) _I_ do seem to read too much in to things, especially when vulnerable
[22:22] * @Morgan nods
[22:22] (@Morgan) you do rather
[22:23] * Molly watches him
[22:23] (Molly) Read too much into things, or seem vulnerable?
[22:25] (@Morgan) read too much into things... worry that you've upset me...
[22:25] * Molly nods, thoughtfully
[22:26] (Molly) It comes from so many moons of trying to protect you from my feelings and from inadvertent reminders of the past
[22:27] * @Morgan nods
[22:27] (@Morgan) I know
[22:29] (Molly) I hope that with time I can let go of that. I do not like feeling so... cautious
[22:29] * @Morgan nods
[22:29] (@Morgan) nor I
[22:30] (Molly) You have no need to be cautious with me
[22:30] * Molly smiles gently
[22:30] (@Morgan) likewise blossom
[22:31] * Molly nods slowly
[22:32] (Molly) I'll do my best. Your discomfort here has somewhat thrown me off my stride, I must confess
[22:36] * Molly casts him a sidelong glance
[22:38] (Molly) I _had_ planned to elaborate further on a particular courtesan trick, but I'm sure it can wait til we return to privacy and familiarity of Innesbruck *she giggles*
[22:38] (@Morgan) Well, iif you'd care to show me, it'd be inconsiderate of me not to pay attention
[22:39] * Molly smiles a moment
[22:41] (Molly) I should hate to make you uncomfortable... And it is only four nights until we are there *she fails to supress a grin*
[22:42] * @Morgan looks to consider it
[22:42] * Molly giggles
[22:42] (Molly) Although... It _is_ a special occasion
[22:43] (@Morgan) indeed it is
[22:44] * Molly smiles
[22:45] (Molly) Your attention would make a wonderful gift...
[22:49] * Molly tries to read his expression as she stands. She's slightly less graceful thanks to the two glasses of blokners, but not hugely unsteady
[22:50] * @Morgan stands up beside her
[22:51] * Molly takes his hand, leading him to the tree she was sat against
[22:53] (Molly) I want you to sit down with your hands behind your back... *her eyes are filled with mischief and a certain amount if bravado that she doesn't entirely feel*
[22:53] * @Morgan looks confused but does so
[22:54] * Molly looks pleased by his compliance, bending down beside him
[22:57] (Molly) Good... And that is where I wish them to stay, unless I say otherwise *she smiles playfully. He can sense a mix of arousal, curiosity and nervous energy from her*
[22:57] * @Morgan nods
[22:57] (@Morgan) understood
[23:00] * Molly smiles, straddling his lap. She makes a show of wriggling to get comfortable, pressing down against him. The breeze is gentle, the midday sun is warm where it penetrates the foliage of the tree they're beneath
[23:00] (Molly) Fortuitous... I'd been wondering how I'd manage this fully dressed...
[23:02] * @Morgan chuckles
[23:05] * Molly brings her hands to her hair, shaking the long crimson curls over her shoulders. She brings her index finger to her mouth, wetting the tip with her tongue before using it to trace her lower lip. Up close, it's easy to see the dilation of her pupils, rapid flicker of pulse and flushing of skin that give away quite how aroused she already is. Her thighs tighten against his as she grinds in a wide circle against him
[23:09] * @Morgan stays where he is, obviously not uncomfortable
[23:10] * Molly trails the fingers of both hands down her neck, eyes closing as she sighs softly. She continues the slow rotation of her hips
[23:12] (Molly) Now I think perhaps you'll recall a night at home where I did this, and was a little overcome with shyness and discomfort before I could demonstrate the full technique...
[23:14] (@Morgan) I take it that wont be an issue on this occasion?
[23:14] * Molly brings her hands to her breasts, slowly tracing their curves with her fingers whilst boldly meeting his gaze
[23:15] (Molly) No, I have been thinking about this for a few weeks now, and I feel I'm ready. I just hope you are also
[23:16] (@Morgan) I guess we'll find out, hmm?
[23:19] * Molly squeezes her breasts gently at first, but rapidly it becomes firmer, as he did when he made love to her more roughly in Seeufer. She rocks her hips back and forth gently, deriving just as much pleasure from the friction as she's giving
[23:19] (Molly) I trust you will tell me if that is not the case
[23:19] * @Morgan nods
[23:19] (@Morgan) I understand
[23:23] * Molly nods, exhaling in a soft moan as she pinches her nipples. She watches his eyes, his pulse and the reaction of the hardness that she writhes against. Though he still feels a hint of uncertainty from her, it is quite clear that she is enjoying herself
[23:36] (Molly) Usually there wouldn't be any kissing, but... *she leans forward, kissing him gently and teasingly, his restricted arms preventing him from making her come closer even if he wished her to*
[23:37] * @Morgan complies with her
[23:41] * Molly shivers, moaning softly against his lips, thrilled by having control over so powerful a man, thoughts which are easily read by his mind. She moves back, increasing the pressure pleasantly on his erection. She watches her own hand as it runs down her stomach, past her navel to the soft curve of her lower belly, at which point it disappears from his sight. Her glance moves to his face, watching to see what he's watching and whether his expression reveals his feelings
[23:43] * @Morgan is intently watching where her hand disappeared
[23:43] * Molly whispers softly, meeting his eyes
[23:45] (Molly) I think I'm about to do something that will go on my "bad girl" record for a very long time! *she smiles mischievously*
[23:45] * @Morgan speaks quietly
[23:46] (@Morgan) I look forward to finding out what it is
[23:48] (Molly) *he feels rather than sees her hand move lower, feeling the back of it lightly graze him. She moans deeply as her fingers reach the apex of her thighs and steal between the soft slick folds. She closes her eyes, breathing slowly
[23:50] * @Morgan shudders briefly, staring at the gap between them
[23:53] * Molly watches him, biting her lower lip. Her left hand caresses her breast whilst her right index finger gently circles the knot of nerves at the centre of her pleasure. She grinds solidly to him, causing a great deal of friction. Her murmurs are full of passion, back arching.
[23:56] * @Morgan moans, looking her over, taking in every inch of her
[23:56] * Molly leans in, kissing him deeply, tongue thrusting into his mouth. This close there is less pressure on his lap, but crushed between them he can feel every movement of her hand against his belly, illuminating for him the stimulation he cannot see
[00:08] * @Morgan moans, involuntarily moving his hips towards her hand
[00:08] * Molly moans into his mouth, fidgeting enough that as well as the movement of her hand he can sense, her soft derriere rubs over his length frustratingly
