I'll wait for you further down the road (@Morgan) * Morgan nods (@Morgan) very well (@Morgan) E: **he inclines his head before speeding his horse off** (@Morgan) **He feels a flash of unease** [Is everything alright, liebling?] (@Morgan) [absolutely fine. He needs to clear his head a bit] (Molly) Edward) [Alright, liebling] **The singing starts, and continues even once Edward rejoins them half an hour later, looking a bit less tense. It only stops when they get to the small, rest-stop town of Paan and head off to their rooms to get cleaned up. The tavern they have chosen has few people staying, so they are easily able to get enough rooms this time. * Molly watches Varick happily go with Edward, and is a little quiet as they follow the two servants who carry the Fyodor chest to a room. The servants unlock it with a key, and put the chest inside. With the key placed in the key hole, they leave. Molly stands still, watching Morgan* * @Morgan looks at her quizzically * Molly squares her shoulders slightly, and moves towards him, clearly intent on using her body to push him back against the door ((your call if he lets her!)) * @Morgan does so * Molly places one hand on his stomach, holding him a moment. Her eyes are full of desire as she quietly orders "You stay right there a minute…" * @Morgan nods * Molly briefly checks his body language and expression * @Morgan watches her seriously * Molly sinks to her knees, bringing one hand on each button at the side of his trouser placket. She watches his expression again a moment * @Morgan waits calmly * Molly undoes the buttons, pulling it down and lifting his shirt. She briefly licks her lower lip in anticipation, looking up at him ((how aroused is he?)) (@Morgan) ((quite)) * Molly smiles, then brings her mouth to him, surrounding his head with the soft heat * @Morgan sighs deeply * Molly works on gently providing suction and movement, focused intently on what she's doing, keeping it teasingly shallow * @Morgan watches her movements * Molly glances up at him, obviously enjoying herself, before taking him a bit deeper * @Morgan closes his eyes, enjoying her ministrations (Molly) ** With his eyes closed, he hears the two footsteps that precede the knock on the door right behind his head** * Molly carefully removes her mouth to prevent any noises that might give the game away. She looks up at him with great disappointment * @Morgan frowns, tucking himself in and buttoning himself back up * Molly sighs, getting up and going to sit on the bed (Molly) Edward: It's only me, I was coming to collect some clothes for Varick * @Morgan glances at Molly before opening the door * Molly opens the trunk, finding some clothes for Varick (Molly) **Edward looks relaxed, checking Morgans expression* I thought it made sense to do it now rather than later * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) Indeed it does * Molly brings the clothes. She hands them to Edward (Molly) I will come shortly to get him fed and settled for bed, I just need to redress. Thank you for having him. (Molly) E: *he inclines his head* It is no problem (Molly) *He looks to Morgan* Anything else? * @Morgan shakes his head (Molly) **he bows briefly before heading off * Molly rolls her eyes, then goes back to the chest, taking out a dress, shift, and the fancy organza slip she wore to bed. She also gets stockings and garters (@Morgan) You seemed tense earlier blossom (Molly) Did I? *she sits on the bed to undo her boots* * @Morgan nods (Molly) When? (@Morgan) When the chest was being carried in (Molly) Oh! No, I was trying to gather the nerve to be that bold with you * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I had worried something was wrong * Molly shakes her head (Molly) No, just me beings shy * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) and then you overcame it * Molly gets both boots off before the mirror catches her eye, and she wanders barefoot to it to check over the modified skirt/trousers (Molly) Until Edward spoilt it *she giggles* * @Morgan nods * Molly checks out the sides and the back. When not riding, it looks like a regular skirt. She nods to herself (Molly) I think I am going to send the details of this to Stef, see if she can make me a couple and send them on to me in Freiburg * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) thats a good idea * Molly glances at him in the reflection as she checks the front (Molly) I would like to help her business and I know she is open-minded enough not to make an issue about the access. * @Morgan nods (Molly) Would you mind undoing my corset? (@Morgan) Hardly * @Morgan comes to her * Molly giggles (Molly) You're a very useful travelling companion, mon petit chou (@Morgan) You know Edward heard you call me that... * Molly laughs (Molly) Oh dear * Molly watches in the mirror as he undoes the corset, gaze on his hands (Molly) What did he say? (@Morgan) Nothing much, just some amused sniggering (Molly) Would you like me to stop saying it? (@Morgan) No, not really * Molly smiles (Molly) Probably for the best as I would find it quite hard * @Morgan nods * Molly waits til the corset is off, then removes her shirt (Molly) Was that before I got in the coach earlier? * @Morgan nods * Molly starts to look distracted by her thoughts. She starts to undo the drawstring of her trousers * Molly smiles to herself a moment, then looks at him (Molly) We'd best get cleaned up, before I really wander off into my daydreams * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I suppose so * Molly smiles a little, walking over to the water jug and bowl on the dresser (Molly) You can think of something you'd prefer to do? (@Morgan) Not particularly * Molly frowns slightly, pouring water into the jug * @Morgan blinks (Molly) Is something the matter? You seem a little withdrawn (@Morgan) No... I mean I cant think of anything I'd rather be doing than watch you get distracted by your thoughts... * Molly smiles (Molly) I have been very distracted by them multiple times today * Molly starts to wash her upper body, trouser skirt loose and lower on her hips but still on * @Morgan smiles (@Morgan) I'm pleased by that (Molly) Oh? Why is that? * @Morgan shrugs (@Morgan) I like that you think of me * Molly looks over her shoulder with a smile (Molly) Only every other second or so * @Morgan blushes * Molly slides her modified creation down to the floor, still facing away from him and rinses out the wash cloth (Molly) I was very distracted whilst waiting to fall asleep in the coach *she giggles* (@Morgan) oh? (Molly) I... just a silly little fantasy about the day I nearly drowned *she washes the rest of her body* * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) Ah yes... I may have picked up on that * Molly 's hand pauses (Molly) Oh! Sorry liebes herz (@Morgan) I'm not complaining (Molly) How much of it did you pick up? * Molly rinses the cloth before turning to watch him, naked and blushing (@Morgan) Uhhh... If I wanted to see or touch you naked, now is the time * Molly blushes hard (Molly) I... I see. * Molly picks up the shift from the bed, shrugging slightly (Molly) Well, I have an odd imagination... * @Morgan smiles (@Morgan) detailed, rather * Molly nods slowly (Molly) Yes, it really can be. It got very detailed after that * Molly pulls on the shift, taking a deep breath and then giggles (Molly) I am sure the look of shock and horror on your face had I actually _said_ that would have been very clear! (@Morgan) Shock, certainly * Molly raises her eyebrows (Molly) But not horror? * @Morgan shake his head * Molly sits down to put on a stocking (Molly) I would have thought you would have been deeply displeased (@Morgan) It would not have been appropriate * Molly nods, smiling (Molly) Not even slightly appropriate... *she blushes, biting her lip, thoughtful and amused* * @Morgan nods * Molly tries to concentrate on putting the other stocking on (Molly) A well-behaved Veisgrafin would probably say that is the full extent of her illicit fantasies about that day (@Morgan) But you are not a well behaved Veisgrafin (Molly) It certainly looks that way, doesn't it? *she grins* * Molly puts her garters on * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) it does rather (Molly) However, I think we will save me telling you that in great detail for at some point in the next decade or so * Molly smiles, picking up her trousers and giving them a good shake out (@Morgan) I wait with baited breath (Molly) You will do yourself a mischief doing that for ten years * @Morgan shrugs * Molly hangs the trousers on a hanger, fiddling with the central part of them. She frowns slightly (Molly) I might make another pair in Atemlos (@Morgan) why the frown? * Molly blushes (Molly) I was wondering how long it will take them to be dry (@Morgan) oh? * Molly bites her lip (Molly) One of the downsides to the amount of being distracted by my thoughts (@Morgan) oh... I see (Molly) That is often what you say when uncomfortable... * Molly picks up her corset, loosening off the ribbons to make it easy to put on (@Morgan) More unsure what I should say * Molly nods slowly (Molly) I can understand that * Molly gets her corset on and the busks fastened (Molly) Are you as happy to do up my corset as remove it? (@Morgan) If you wish me too blossom * Molly nods. She waits til it's done, and then puts on the dress Stef made her (Molly) I see our mercenary leader has left us? * @Morgan nods (Molly) He is coming back? (@Morgan) In the morning * Molly looks a little puzzled (@Morgan) Its really very sad * Molly starts putting her boots on (Molly) Why? (@Morgan) He goes to sleep on his wife grave * Molly looks deeply saddened (Molly) Oh! Poor man (Molly) Childbirth? (@Morgan) You don't want to know blossom * Molly frowns (Molly) Is it too close to home? (@Morgan) Its horrid enough that it upset Edward, and has made me think ways to help with vengeance * Molly nods a little (Molly) Can I help with ideas for vengeance? I am good at ideas (@Morgan) Difficult. The land was annexed and the new Freiarrs actions and those of his men were abhorrent. * Molly nods slowly, distracted (Molly) That does sound tough. We must be in Hainzl rather than Fischler now? * @Morgan nods (Molly) We would have sway in Fischler... Can he not raise an army and liberate his land? (@Morgan) I don't know * Molly nods (Molly) I suppose it would depend on who his tenants have alligance to now? * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) Not an option, I believe the tenants were all killed * Molly frowns deeply (Molly) That is not good (@Morgan) And that isn't the worst of it I'm afraid (Molly) Surely the Grafs and Eisenfurst have a duty to prevent these things? (@Morgan) You'd think so (Molly) Liebes herz, I am a woman. If troops are killing everyone in a town, it will always be much worse than just that. There are some things that we always know. * Molly looks solemn * @Morgan nods * Molly sighs (Molly) Something should be done about it... but it does not seem like gaining the land back is going to help * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I've been twisting my head around trying to figure something I can do * Molly nods (Molly) You could ask him? * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I shall do tomorrow * Molly looks thoughtful (Molly) Was Edward upset about all of it, or specifically about his wife? (@Morgan) I'd be surprised if he wasn't affected by all of it anyway * Molly gets her boots on and done up (Molly) You have to be heartless to not be. Is such violence common in annexation? (@Morgan) Perhaps not to that degree, but yes * Molly nods, going to pin up her hair again (Molly) It's horrible. * @Morgan nods * Molly glances at him once the pins are in, trying to lighten the mood (Molly) So, do I look like a well-behaved Veisgrafin? (Molly) ((Her dress is a bit too common Eisen for that)) (@Morgan) In the same way I look like a Veisgraf (Molly) We should blend in nicely then. *she widens her eyes with fake innocence* But I do look well-behaved? * @Morgan shrugs (@Morgan) to some (Molly) But you know better, hmm? * Molly smiles (@Morgan) I do (Molly) I am fairly confident I can be well-behaved... Until bed time * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) we'll see, won't we blossom * Molly nods. She looks around the room (Molly) Well, I suppose I'd best go and do the things that need doing * @Morgan nods (Molly) Will you be coming to see Varick before he goes to sleep, or shall I meet you downstairs? (@Morgan) No, I'll come with you (Molly) You aren't getting changed? * @Morgan shrugs * Molly smiles slightly (Molly) I am not sure I would have bothered if it had not been necessity (@Morgan) If someone wishes to challenge my decision... * Molly smiles (Molly) You would not do it if I commanded it of you? (@Morgan) Would I change for you? Yes. Because you command it? No. * Molly nods slowly (Molly) I will bear in mind that I cannot command you to do what I wish then * Molly smiles, shrugging with a playful nonchalance (Molly) I shall have to just beg you instead, as I know you're partial to that (@Morgan) oh? (Molly) It's made you make some noises I am rather partial to in the past * @Morgan blushes * Molly smiles, kissing his reddened cheek (Molly) We need to go before my need to hear them again becomes very, very pressing * @Morgan nods * Molly grins, watching his expression (Molly) Rather than just pressing, as it is now and has been all day (@Morgan) Will you be able to bear the wait? (Molly) Without doing something brazen to you beneath the table in the tavern? * Molly giggles * Molly takes his hand, pulling him towards the door * @Morgan laughs (Molly) I can't promise I won't be imagining it relentlessly though (@Morgan) Me either, actually * Molly makes a little noise of frustration (Molly) Are you intending to make my suffering worse? (@Morgan) Not at all... just planning to enjoy thinking about you doing brazen things to me, myself * Molly squeezes his hand (Molly) I don't think you're a well-behaved Veisgraf... (@Morgan) I dont recall ever claiming to be (Molly) Very true, mon petit chou. Lucky that I adore you when you're badly behaved also * Molly takes the key from the lock and opens the door with her free hand * Molly pulls him out into the hall, speaking quietly (Molly) There isn't an inch of my body or heart that doesn't adore you, liebling (@Morgan) We'll explore that statement later * Molly smiles, though looks a bit distracted (Molly) I will hold you to that. * @Morgan nods * Molly leads him to Edwards room, and it's not til they get there that her distraction stops ** You are now disconnected ------------------------------ Logging started for Blitzed:#7thseaic on Sunday, 1 November 2020 17:41:17 Greenwich Mean Time ------------------------------ ** You have joined #7thseaic ** cantillon.be.eu.blitzed.org sets mode(s) +nt ** ChanServ sets mode(s) -o Molly ** Morgan has joined #7thseaic ** ChanServ sets mode(s) +o Morgan ** You're now known as Varick * Varick is fed and prepared for bed when he asks Morgan to put him into the little palette bed (Varick) Why do grown ups go to taverns? (@Morgan) Because they think its somewhere they can relax (Varick) Is it fun in taverns? (Varick) **Molly and Edward are talking quietly on the other side of the room* (@Morgan) Not fun exactly... its a place where grown ups go to drink and talk and relax, rather than have fun (Varick) Do children go to taverns? (@Morgan) No... a lot of the grown ups aren't well enough behaved for that * Varick giggles (Varick) How old were you when you went to a tavern? (@Morgan) When I was old enough (Varick) Will you take me to a tavern when I am old enough? (@Morgan) If you want me to. * Varick nods (Varick) Are you going to the tavern when you leave us to be alone? (@Morgan) No, I'll not be going there (Varick) Will you be here in the morning or are you going to the ship now? (@Morgan) I'll be here in the morning (Varick) Will you be with me at my bed time tomorrow? (@Morgan) I'm not sure yet... probably (Varick) Will you be with me at my bedtime on Thursday? (@Morgan) I'll probably head off thursday daytime (Varick) You won't be there at my bedtime on Friday. Will you be there at my bedtime on Saturday (they're hoping to have set sail by then)? (@Morgan) We'll all be on the ship then * Varick nods, looking relieved (Varick) Okay. That won't be too long (@Morgan) No, not too long at all (@Morgan) You dont need to worry Varick * Varick shrugs (Varick) Sometimes people don't come back (@Morgan) Not me * Varick nods, yawning (Varick) Okay * Varick hugs him tight * @Morgan returns the hug * Varick lies down, settling to sleep (Varick) Goodnight, be good in the tavern (@Morgan) I will be * Varick goes to sleep, and Adalbrecht amusedly tells both Morgan and Edward to be good in the tavern too. He tells Molly he knows she will be. She somehow manages to conceal her expression behind a sweet smile until they are out in hall where she glances at Morgan with a raised eyebrow * Varick just watches his expression a moment ** You're now known as Molly (@Morgan) He is such an innocent * Molly nods (Molly) What was Varick saying? (Molly) *Edward leads the way towards the Inns dining space* (@Morgan) asking when I'll be going... he's obviously anxious he won't see me again * Molly nods slowly (Molly) He has lost a lot of people from his life * @Morgan nods * Molly smiles gently (Molly) Don't worry liebling, he will be fine (@Morgan) I know... father is worried about you both, though * Molly nods a little (Molly) I have already told him his concern is noted (@Morgan) He was hoping he could help your swimming lessons in the lake in Atemlos * Molly frowns a little (Molly) I do not approve of your Father's methods. It's dangerous and stupid, and children can drown far too quickly *she frowns further, then shrugs a little* (@Morgan) He's agreed not to do that... * Molly nods, speaking quietly (Molly) If he tried to do that to me, I suspect something most regrettable would happen * @Morgan nods (Molly) Do you want him to teach me? (@Morgan) it'd be useful, and probably wise to be more proficient for being onboard * Molly nods (Molly) I think it is wise to learn, I just enjoyed having you teach me * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I know (Molly) I will do what you bid of me, liebling *she smiles* (@Morgan) I think it'd be wise... though Edward did raise an interesting point (Molly) Oh? **she watches the back of the brother in question who has gone on a bit faster than them* (@Morgan) If Father has such problems when you wear figure hugging trousers, hows he going to deal with you in a wet top... * Molly giggles (Molly) Especially if it goes as see-through as the cream vest and shorts I made when you taught me! * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) indeed (Molly) I will have to find something loose and dark * Molly glances at him sidelong (Molly) *whispers* I cannot imagine you liking the idea of your father or any other man seeing sheer wet fabric plastered to my breasts or bottom *she makes her expression as sweet and placid as if she hadnt even said those words* (@Morgan) No, not particularly * Molly giggles (Molly) I will think on it * @Morgan nods (Molly) **They find the rest of their party in the dinning space. Dinner passes pleasantly, and the food is passable. Then the mercenaries, Koertigs, Claudia, Sorgi and James head to a busy tavern next door, the evening air pleasant still, though the dusk a little earlier. Inside, the musicians start, and although the words are in Eisen, the music and atmosphere is much the same as in Maelwys' Tavern so many miles away. (Molly) **They get sorted with tables and drinks, taking up quite a bit of space, but people seem welcoming and relaxed. Molly looks eager to go and dance, it's a mix of country dancing, the Polka, and those closer waltzes. Edward is sat at a table with them, drinking a pint of basic ale, and for the first time since her near death experience, Molly has a glass of brandy in her hand. * Molly smiles at him, sitting close ((is he drinking blokners, standard ale, or something else)) (@Morgan) ((Blokners)) (Molly) How are you faring, liebes herz? (@Morgan) Fine blossom (Molly) I am glad to hear it (@Morgan) and you? * Molly sips the brandy, sighing as it burns (Molly) I am good. I am glad to be off the road for a few hours * @Morgan nods * Molly watches as a few of the mercenaries go to proposition the girls in the tavern to dance. They're far more gentlemanly about it than would be expected of mercenaries (Molly) Edward suggested that if we leave early tomorrow we could be in Atemlos by mid-afternoon * @Morgan nods (Molly) ((Attention?)) (@Morgan) that makes sense (@Morgan) ((Mercenary types)) (Molly) **they quickly get partners and join in. They all look mostly relaxed and it's obvious they are fairly frequent visitors here* * Molly watches the dancing, smiling. On Morgan's other side, he sees Edward watching her * @Morgan watches him from the corner of his eye (Molly) *Edward glances at him, speaking quietly* Do you want me to take her to dance? * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I think that'd be a good idea (Molly) Have you considered showing your feelings by dancing with her? (Molly) E:** * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) soon (Molly) E: *he inclines his head before coming around and offering Molly his arm. She checks in with Morgan's expression before deciding * @Morgan nods, smiling slightly * Molly happily accepts, and lets Edward lead her out. Claudia moves to sit by Morgan ** You're now known as Claudia (Claudia) How are you? (Claudia) ((Attention?)) (@Morgan) ((Edward and Molly)) (@Morgan) I'm alright (Claudia) Glad to be out of Fischler? * @Morgan shrugs (Claudia) **A slowish country dance starts. Edward and Molly seem to quickly get into a conversation that involves quite a bit of his laughing and her giggling, She looks quite at ease, explaining something* (@Morgan) I liked it there... some of the staff I rather liked (Claudia) Shame about the constant threat (Claudia) ((Is he basically going to keep a watch on them?)) (@Morgan) ((no he'll start watching others, but will repeatedly look at them)) (@Morgan) Funny how much chaos one person can cause (Claudia) **Every One seems to be having a nice time. Molly says something with an amused smile, brows raised. Edward laughs, surprised, looking back to her. (Claudia) How are you feeling about her death? (@Morgan) Tough one... if she hadn't tried to murder Molly... it may have all stayed buried, but... I feel somewhat guilty about it * Claudia watches between Morgan and where hes watching (Claudia) Why? (@Morgan) Because I brought the evidence (Claudia) *Edward asks her something with amusement. She smiles, replying, then leans in slightly as if confiding something and smirks (Claudia) She did the crime. It's not on you * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I suppose so (@Morgan) It still feels very much I like I killed her myself * Claudia shrugs a little (Claudia) Most would have (Claudia) **Edward snorts before laughing loudly. He smiles at her, responding. (@Morgan) Aye. If it wasn't so damn complicated, she'd have been dead much sooner (Claudia) If we'd been in Innesbruck... (Claudia) *Molly blushes, shaking her head, looking distracted, and answers him with a vague smile. * @Morgan frowns slightly * Claudia spots it (Claudia) Problem? (@Morgan) No, I suppose not * Claudia watches them dance (Claudia) They're getting on better than at Heinzharold's wedding! * @Morgan nods (Claudia) **Edward says something looking relaxed, and Molly blushes hard, biting her lip, smiling (@Morgan) The problem is, I'm sure that was fairly innocent but... I sort of want to punch him now (Claudia) I want to punch him most of the time (@Morgan) You want to punch most people most of the time * Claudia grins (Claudia) I do. Not you though. (@Morgan) I'm far too likeable (Claudia) **The song changes, and the dance changes to a waltz. Molly puts her hand on Edwards right shoulder as is right for the dance. He winces slightly* (Claudia) You're tolerable. (@Morgan) I'll take that * Claudia drinks some of her blokners, alternating between watching Morgan and watching Sorgi gradually approach Molly and Edward (@Morgan) What do you think he's up to... (Claudia) **Molly appears to apologise, moving her hand slightly, then closes her eyes a moment* (Claudia) Edward? Flirting with your wife. (@Morgan) I meant Sorgi... * Claudia doesn't get chance to answer, ad Sorgi taps Edward on the other shoulder to cut in, which Edward allows. It's then Sorgi Molly is held close by whilst waltzing. Claudia watches them, no longer watching Morgan (@Morgan) Molly's looking forward to your teaching her * Claudia nods, still watching (Claudia) I am hopeful she will take to it (@Morgan) I expect so * Claudia nods, watching Sorgi twirl her future pupil around (Claudia) Tomorrow, in Atemlos (@Morgan) Are you having an issue, Claudia? (Claudia) No, I have no problem teaching her * Claudia still doesn't look away (@Morgan) Thats not what I meant (Claudia) What did you mean? (@Morgan) You're staring... (Claudia) I'm watching (@Morgan) No, its definitely staring (Claudia) Okay, and? (@Morgan) I'm just wondering why * Claudia sips the blokners (Claudia) Seeing how she moves now, before training (@Morgan) Are you lying to me, or yourself? * Claudia glances at him, frowning (Claudia) About? (@Morgan) You were sparing them glances until Sorgi took over from Edward... now you're staring at them (Claudia) And you think... what, exactly? * @Morgan shrugs (@Morgan) I think Sorgi means more to you than you admit (Claudia) It was just sex, it doesn't mean anything. * @Morgan shrugs (@Morgan) if you say so (Claudia) I do. * Claudia watches Morgan (@Morgan) You two are quite close (Claudia) We are friends. Just like me and you, me and Heinzharold. (@Morgan) I dont recall you and I or you and HeinzHarold having sex... (@Morgan) fairly sure I'd remember being there... * Claudia cringes (Claudia) That's an unpleasant thought! (@Morgan) Thank you * Claudia shrugs (Claudia) You're welcome (@Morgan) In all honesty, you seem jealous his attention is elsewhere * Claudia laughs (Claudia) That's ridiculous. I was watching your wife in this dance that's closer to the fighting style * @Morgan shrugs, taking a mouthful of blokners (Claudia) **The waltz finishes, and James cuts in next, the music speeding to a dizzying polka of the variety Morgan dislikes. Sorgi goes to the bar (Claudia) I trust you won't make an issue of what happened between he and I? (@Morgan) Never for you. You know me better than that (Claudia) Good. It was a moment of madness that we don't intend to repeat * @Morgan shrugs (@Morgan) Dont. Do. Just be happy. * Claudia laughs (Claudia) Are you happy? You have one of those faces that generally says otherwise * @Morgan laughs (@Morgan) My face doesn't say much, really (Claudia) That's the point. Other people's faces say a lot. (@Morgan) I know... usually dread when they realise who I am, and that I'm not some merchant (Claudia) **Edward saunters over with another drink, and sits beside Morgan (Claudia) E: Why do you dress like that anyway? I was going to ask early but you were distracted *he smirks a little* (Claudia) Earlier* (@Morgan) A few reasons... people are less guarded around a merchant or anyone not of noble birth... and its comfortable (@Morgan) What did you say to cause my wife to blush so hard?\ * Claudia speaks quietly to Morgan "excuse me a minute' ** You're now known as Edward * Edward looks thoughtful (Edward) Which time? (@Morgan) primarily the second time, but both if you can remember * Edward glances at Morgan's expression ((expression and tone would be useful)) (@Morgan) ((not aggressive, bit uneasy)) (Edward) The first time she was telling me about the poor choice of her swimming attire, how you had been a gentleman about it, and I had said I used to suspect you had father's prudishness. She blushed whilst denying it * Edward smiles, sipping his ale, keeping an eye on his brothers face * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) Not anymore anyway... (Edward) Its not a bad thing. Would you want to be like Father and get all flustered and unnecessary over a woman in trousers? (@Morgan) I dont think so (Edward) No, it'd be a nuisance (Edward) The second blush was because I told her "My brother is absolutely smitten with you, and he can't take his eyes off you right now" (@Morgan) I'm not sure how you'd know, Claudia was telling me my face doesn't express anything (Edward) That you're smitten? * @Morgan nods (Edward) You were the one so distracted by the prospect of a night alone with her that you lost track of our conversation. And you let her call you arguably the silliest nickname of all time *he smiles* * @Morgan shrugs (@Morgan) I suppose so (Edward) If it isn't true, don't tell her. You saw her face light up. A little exaggeration in that regard does no harm. (@Morgan) Of course its true * Edward drinks his ale (Edward) Oh I knoe * @Morgan thumps his brothers arm * Edward laughs (Edward) You're welcome, by the way (@Morgan) What for this time? (Edward) That. Telling her you were watching her, and the truth about you being smitten * @Morgan nods (Edward) The musicians will be doing a couple more dances, then there will be some singing (Edward) **Claudia and Sorgi are talking quietly in a corner * @Morgan watches them for a moment (@Morgan) Then I'd best take my opportunity (Edward) **they are neither over friendly or at odds. The music changes, another close waltz (@Morgan) if you'll excuse me * Edward nods ** You're now known as Molly * @Morgan stands, striding over to Molly and James (@Morgan) James, may I cut in? * Molly looks very surprised, blushing, and James steps aside (Molly) I... I wasn't expecting to see you here, my love * @Morgan pulls her close to dance (@Morgan) I'm afraid jealousy rather got the better of me * Molly 's brows come together, pupils dilating. So close he can feel her stomach muscles tense (Molly) Oh really? How awful for you, liebes herz! *her eyes light up with mischief* * @Morgan shrugs (@Morgan) it has its advantages (Molly) Such as? (@Morgan) I get to hold you close (Molly) You _always_ get to hold me close, my love, whenever and however you wish * Molly smiles fondly at him * @Morgan nods * Molly looks mock thoughtful in his arms, pressing herself closer to him (Molly) Though I do rather like the thought that you have come over here to reclaim that which is yours... * @Morgan nods (Molly) What made you feel jealous and possessive? * Molly looks happy, enjoying being in his arms (@Morgan) I saw Edward making you blush... * Molly blushes again (Molly) That had nothing to do with Edward, and everything to do with my thoughts of you (@Morgan) I know (Molly) Do you? * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) well, I know what he said anyway (Molly) Oh? And What did he say? (@Morgan) That I'm not as prudish as father, and that I am smitten with you * Molly bites her lip (Molly) *whispers* With the first, I blushed because I was recalling the rough way you restrained my wrists and took me against the tree... *she watches his expression closely* * @Morgan blushes * Molly tries to decipher whether she has overstepped the mark by whether he looks positively or negatively embarassed (@Morgan) I'm not entirely sure what got into me (Molly) Whatever it was, I dearly hope it happens again! (@Morgan) I suspect so * Molly watches him (Molly) You feel ill at ease about it? * @Morgan shakes his head * Molly smiles, looking relieved (Molly) As for him saying you are smitten... *she blushes, biting her lip* I will always be thrilled by that (Molly) **The song changes, but it's another close waltz, making no difference to their dancing* (Molly) You do know you have no need to be jealous, don't you? * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I know (Molly) If only jealousy were so logical! * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) its quite unreasonable (Molly) You were not jealous that I was dancing with Sorgi? (@Morgan) No, strangely (Molly) Sorgi and I have more of a father-daughter relationship... * @Morgan nods (Molly) A bit like Evie thought you and I had when she suggested you give me away at my wedding to Curtis *she smirks* (@Morgan) what can I say, my face gives away very little * Molly giggles (Molly) Actually, I recall you blushing hard when I asked you if you saw me that way and wanted that role! (@Morgan) I suppose _someone_ has to be able to read me * Molly smiles (Molly) Barely... in most ways *she briefly presses her lower body to his before lifting an eyebrow suggestively* (Molly) ((Attention?)) (@Morgan) ((her)) * Molly smiles warmly (Molly) I hope to get better at reading you (@Morgan) It'll come with time * Molly nods. The dance finishes, everyone applauds. She looks up at him (Molly) Thank you for dancing with me, liebes herz (@Morgan) Thank you for dancing with _me_ * Molly smiles softly (Molly) You have nothing to thank me for, it is always my pleasure to be in your arms * Molly takes his hand, weaving through the people to get back to the table. By the time she is sat close on his right and has finished her first glass of brandy, the singing has begun. It's loud but relaxed, easy. Edward puts another brandy on the table in front of her before checking how much blokners Morgan has left * @Morgan nods, finishing his glass (Molly) **The musicians and the drinkers start singing What Shall We Do With The Drunken Sailor, a song well-known to Morgan. By the time Edward is back with Morgan's blokners and sat beside him on the other side, Molly has her thigh pressed to his beneath the table, holding his hand and stroking his palm slowly with her thumb. She sings along, slightly distracted (@Morgan) I still maintain the Avalonian do better sailing songs * Molly smiles (Molly) We Avalonians do many things better... * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I suppose so (Molly) **The verse "Put him into bed with the Captain's Daughter" starts. Molly starts frowning ((PM)) (Molly) Poor girl! Send her an attractive, broad shoulder, sober sailor who will be of some use to her! *she grins* * @Morgan frowns brfiefly * Molly watches him (Molly) I apologise, that was a little crass of me (@Morgan) No blossom, it wasn't that at all (Molly) No? (@Morgan) It doesn't really refer to the captains daughter * Molly looks confused (Molly) What does it mean? (@Morgan) its slang for the cat o'nine tails... being drunk would call for a flogging... as would other actions * Molly bites her lip a moment, then her expression becomes neutral (Molly) That makes more sense than rewarding him with a night in the bed of his superior's daughter! * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) hitting a superior carries the same punishment... trying to shoot one is slightly more lashes * Molly nods slowly. Her thumb has stopped moving (Molly) We were on the bone bridge in Freiburg... You said you had been punished for it... * @Morgan nods slowly, taking a large swig of blokners * Molly interlaces her fingers with his (Molly) That's what all those thin close together scars are from? * @Morgan nods * Molly squeezes his hand (Molly) I'm so sorry, liebling (@Morgan) It was my own doing * Molly frowns (Molly) No, that was his doing for putting all your lives at risk. * @Morgan shrugs * Molly watches his face (Molly) You likely saved lives doing that. (@Morgan) I know... Kauffman didn't see it like that (Molly) He sounds like a complete a-... idiot. * @Morgan nods (Molly) Do you think you'll ever see him again? * @Morgan shrugs * Molly looks thoughtful before shaking it off (Molly) Does your Father know about it? ((Pretty sure he knows about the incident, your call if he knew about the punishment)) (@Morgan) He knows what I did... thats all I told him. Whether or not he found out another way, I couldn't say (Molly) That must have been dreadful *she watches him sadly* (Molly) **The next verse that catches her attention is "Let him kiss the Gunner's Daughter" which would be being bound over a cannon whilst being flogged** (Molly) **Molly sips the second glass of brandy** Also not actually a daughter? (@Morgan) Tied over a cannon while flogged * Molly nods slowly again (Molly) I see * Molly 's expression becomes neutral as she sips the whiskey again. Edward nudges Morgan briefly * @Morgan glances at him (Molly) E: *He looks concerned* Everything okay? * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I reacted to the verse about the captains daughter and had to explain it (Molly) E: That there'd be hell to pay when he was caught there the next morning having swived her? (@Morgan) How do you not know this? Do they teach you nothing in the army? Its a term for a cat o'nine tails. (Molly) E: *he shrugs* Alright? And no, we didn't have them in the army (@Morgan) Twelve lashes for being drunk (@Morgan) and then I started scowling because... * @Morgan swallows some more blokners (Molly) E: *he is now frowning, giving Morgan his full attention* because? (@Morgan) You know what happened with Kauffman? * Molly gently squeezes his hand, moving closer to him. He can feel strong waves of protectiveness in her emotions (Molly) E: The rifle chap? * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) striking a superior is the same punishment... and given what I did, he pushed for as much as he could get when he couldn't get me court marshalled (Molly) E *he nods grimly {protectiveness, vengeful}* Hardly proportionate. * @Morgan shrugs (@Morgan) regardless, thats what we were discussing (Molly) E: *he nods, drinking his ale* I got bucked and gagged once. That's what we did in the army. * @Morgan closes his eyes a moment (@Morgan) You got who and what? * Molly tries very hard not to giggle (Molly) E: The punished sits in the dirt, bent forward, hands tied to his or her legs, knees bent. A large stick goes over the arms and under the knees, creating an unnatural and uncomfortable position, and another stick was secured in the mouth like a bit. (@Morgan) sounds relaxing (Molly) E: *He smiles* No. *he glances at Molly assessingly a moment before looking at Morgan* I will check with you before saying any more, I would not want you to think I was being too indiscrete * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) carry on (Molly) E: Potts and I got it for lying to a superior officer, drunkenness and fornication * @Morgan laughs * Molly glances at Morgan, blushing but also amused (Molly) E: *he frowns* Not with each other! * @Morgan laughs harder * Molly starts giggling then, burying her face against Morgan's upper arm (Molly) E: We had a brilliant idea, whilst deep in our cups, that we could pass a couple of girls we met in a... brothel as our new brides, and they could follow the drum with us (@Morgan) I assume your superior was already familiar with said girls... (Molly) E: No, but we were both underage for marriage, had no certificates, and Potts "wife" was already obviously with child, but we just thought she was quite a sturdy lass * Molly continues giggling "Oh dear!" (Molly) E: Then we were told we could either spend an hour bucked and gagged, or be forced to tell our parents what we had done (@Morgan) Ah, another thing he doesn't know then... (Molly) E: He knows about the punishment, just not exactly what we did. That's one of many reasons he dislikes Potts. * @Morgan nods (Molly) **more rounds of the song have continued, but now the verse moves on to "Shave his balls with a rusty razor" ((Attention?)) (@Morgan) ((Molly)) * Molly looks puzzled and thoughtful (Molly) E: *he starts chuckling* * Molly speaks quietly (Molly) This isn't something sailors actually did, surely? (@Morgan) Not on any ship I was on * Molly nods slowly (Molly) It sounds very dangerous and also ineffective (Molly) **he picks up her thoughts of a dark room with heavy velvet drapes, exotic perfume, lots of giggling laughter, and sweet sparkling wine. He has previously placed this memories of her time on The Coral* (Molly) E: Molly, do you want another brandy? **he gets no answer as she's clearly distracted. He glances at Morgan, smiling* That's about as distracted as you looked earlier * @Morgan speaks quietly (@Morgan) my concern is the last she said about was rusty razors and shaving balls... (Molly) *he snorts before laughing, catching Molly's attention. She blinks a moment* I'm sorry, I was miles away (Molly) E: More brandy? *she looks at what's in the glass* M: Okay, one more *Edward stands up, leaving them* (@Morgan) Where were you? * Molly looks somewhat distracted still (Molly) The Coral (@Morgan) oh? (Molly) **The singing continues in the tavern. Claudia, Sorgi and Edward are all at the bar. Molly nods slowly (Molly) I think perhaps we should stick a pin in my plan for this evening. You have things on your mind, and we need to leave early tomorrow. We will have plenty of time on The Rose for it (@Morgan) You are concerned I am too unhappy to participate * Molly blushes, looking a little discomfitted rather than playful (Molly) I worry it would be unwelcome * @Morgan shrugs (@Morgan) I'm fine blossom * Molly nods slowly again (Molly) I'm just concerned for you, that's all * @Morgan sips his blokners (Molly) *Edward returns with the brandy, glancing at them a moment before quietly placing it down whilst talking to Claudia* * Molly downs the remainder of the second brandy before picking up the new glass. She looks distracted again (@Morgan) Whats wrong blossom? (Molly) Hmm? No, nothing is wrong, just putting my thoughts in order *she smiles, resting her cheek to his upper arm* (@Morgan) You seem distracted (Molly) Edward to Claudia: That would work. It will be harder to do that on the ship anyhow * Molly takes a deep breath, then sips the brandy (Molly) I am fine, liebling. Would you like to hear something interesting? * @Morgan nods, watching her * Molly fidgets, tucking her leg under her so she can get close enough to whisper in his ear, her hand shielding it from onlookers (Molly) I would be able to fix Edward's shoulder * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I did wonder * Molly gently runs the tip of her tongue over his earlobe a moment (Molly) And I did promise you last year I would heal him if you ever asked... I just did not know how valuable that offer was then * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I recall * Molly gently nips his earlobe before moving away with a quiet giggle (Molly) Something to think about (@Morgan) I don't see he would ever allow it (Molly) No, possibly not. And it would mean a level of honesty that could be risky * Molly looks thoughtful (@Morgan) Could knock him out... (@Morgan) I know Claudia would enjoy that opportunity * Molly smiles (Molly) That might work. I need to contrive a way that would explain that pleasant tingly sensation it brings (@Morgan) You think you could conceal what you're really doing? (Molly) I... I don't know. Maybe. It's worth thinking about * @Morgan frowns briefly (@Morgan) Do you think you could make it a bit better but not completely? * Molly frowns a little too (Molly) When I did that to... *she tips her head towards Sorgi* it was a little uncomfortable. It seems that doing it partially is not as easy * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I was thinking that'd be easier to pass off (Molly) Realistically, I need some time and privacy to play around and investigate it * Molly frowns (Molly) And I cannot do that for a few days really, it's unwise for me to carelessly lose blood * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) No I will not have you putting yourself at risk * Molly sighs (Molly) I will have to investigate it at some point. I also need to know if I can heal any harm I do * @Morgan nods * Molly shakes it off. She presses her thigh to his beneath the table, smiling (Molly) A discussion for another day I think * @Morgan nods, sipping his drink * Molly sips her brandy. She listens to the singing a moment, and her fingers come to her lower lip. The song is not significant, but he notices the mercenaries are now talking together rather than joining in * @Morgan watches them (Molly) E: *he looks at Morgan and then the mercenaries. The mercenaries seem fairly relaxed but are clearly discussing something back and forth* * @Morgan glances at Edward before going back to watching the mercenaries * Molly fidgets a little beside him, resting her cheek to his arm again, and rests the back of her hand on his thigh under the table (Molly) E, quietly: I reckon they will be on the move to the brothel across the square shortly * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) my suspicious nature got the better of me (Molly) **The mercenaries do seem like people intending to leave rather than settle* (Molly) E: You are going to let them? (@Morgan) What business is it of mine (Molly) **The juggler speaks to James who is stood fairly near them* (Molly) E: They are supposed to be working * Molly glances at Morgan briefly, watching to see what has his attention (Molly) *Edward doesn't look disapproving, he seems quite at ease as he sips his ale* (@Morgan) You're probably right, but I think they'd benefit from some downtime, particularly with the solemn reason for the absence of their commander. (Molly) *Edward nods, grimly* I would let them. *he smiles* But I'm definitely not prudish like Father. (Molly) **Sorgi gets drawn into the conversation with the mercenaries* (@Morgan) Best not mention it to him (Molly) *Edward nods. He glances at Morgan, then Molly, then smiles before looking back at the others* No, best not (Molly) ((Attention?)) (@Morgan) ((Juggler, though that last movement would have drawn a glance to Edward)) (Molly) **Juggler looks quite relaxed, watching Sorgi briefly ask something to Claudia. Edward is now just watching the mercenaries* (Molly) **Claudia frowns ever so slightly before shrugging and nodding. Edward looks back to Morgan* (Molly) E: I can read women well. I can't read Mina unless we're alone. I can't read Molly when she does that neutral look, but I find Claudia as hard to read as many men. * @Morgan nods, watching her (Molly) **Claudia picks up her cloak, as do most of the others. Sorgi comes to Morgan* M'Lord, by your leave we're going to go across the square * Molly gets drawn out of her distraction by Sorgi's approach, turning her hand palm down onto Morgan's thigh as she starts paying attention. She doesn't say anything. On his other side, Edward quietly drinks his ale (@Morgan) As you wish. No trouble over there, or I'll be leaving you behind. (Molly) S: *he inclines his head* Of course, M'Lord. Claudia is coming with us, unless you need her here? * @Morgan stands up (@Morgan) I need a moment with her * Molly looks confused a moment before sipping her brandy. Edward stands to let him out (Molly) **Sorgi motions to the others, heading towards the door. There's laughter and good natured jostling between them. Claudia brings up the rear* * @Morgan takes Claudia to one side (Molly) **Edward slides along, talking to Molly quietly* ** You're now known as Claudia (Claudia) I can stay if you need me (@Morgan) You can stay if you'd prefer and blame it on me... I saw the frown, you're unhappy about something. (Claudia) No, I'll go. I've been in brothels before. *she smiles* Even with you. * @Morgan frowns at her * Claudia just stares at him (@Morgan) That covers you going, but not what you're clearly not pleased about (Claudia) Not something I want to discuss (@Morgan) You're very frustrating. Try not to hurt anyone. (Claudia) I won't hurt anyone. I promise. (@Morgan) Dont _get_ hurt either. I need you. (Claudia) As if anyone there could hurt me. * Claudia grins * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) Very well * Claudia nods (Claudia) Enjoy your evening * @Morgan nods, going back to the table (Claudia) **Edward and Molly are still quietly talking. She's blushing again, smiling a little. He has the option of making Edward move so he can sit in the middle, or sitting on the other side of her * @Morgan goes to her other side ** You're now known as Molly * Molly smiles at seeing him, waiting til he's settled before moving as close to him as she can get away with (Molly) You did not want us all to go across the square to the other tavern, liebling? (Molly) E: *he smiles a little, raising his glass to his mouth, surreptitiously watching Morgan's handling of this* (@Morgan) Its not a tavern blossom * Molly looks confused (Molly) A gambling hall? *she looks a little excited at the prospect* * @Morgan shakes his head (Molly) E: *he snorts a little* * Molly frowns, watching Morgan (Molly) Alright... (@Morgan) It'd smell like the Coral * Molly blushes, giggling (Molly) Oh! As posh as that in a place like this?! (Molly) E: *he is now watching Morgan with a frown* (@Morgan) No, but along those lines (Molly) A pity, the Coral smelled lovely (@Morgan) Wait a moment, blossom, Edward wants to chastise me for you knowing about such places... (Molly) E: *he looks at Morgan* I wouldn't say chastise... * Molly quietly puts her hand back on his thigh, smiling innocently at both men (@Morgan) disapprove of in a prudish manner? (Molly) E: *he frowns again* How does she know about those places when you had never been in one til Wednesday? * Molly looks at Morgan with surprise (Molly) You hadn't? * @Morgan shakes his head (@Morgan) Our time working brought us into contact with men who had courtesans... one of whom had her own ship and was... free with information. * Molly giggles, blushing (Molly) E: *he looks a little surprised, then nods slowly* That explains a few things... * Molly glances at Morgan, biting her lip (@Morgan) oh? What things? (Molly) E: Contents of a letter from my betrothed, and how she knew certain things... * @Morgan laughs * Molly buries her face against Morgan's arm, giggling * @Morgan nods (Molly) E: Father would go absolutely berserk * Molly squeezes Morgan's thigh, and glances at him * @Morgan nods (Molly) Given some of my previous bluntness with him, I am not sure he would be that surprised (Molly) E: *he laughs* (Molly) E: This life of yours in Avalon sounds most irregular. Have you known each other long? * Molly looks thoughtful, though a little nervous (Molly) About two and a half years (Molly) E: *he glances at Morgan, then smiles at Molly* What was your first impression of my brother? (@Morgan) I think you'll find most peoples first impression of me is similar... "Oh god, its him" * Molly closes her eyes briefly. Morgan senses he could read her thoughts if he tries (Molly) E: *he laughs* That must be useful * @Morgan tries to pick up what she's thinking * Molly is thinking of the day she arrived at the Torrington estate in deep distress and rather broken from her time living in barns and going without food. She had been patched up by a sympathetic maid, and dressed in a suitable dress, then presented to Morgan as a new maid. She was nervous, trembling, completely out of place in the new house. He looked serious and distracted, sat at a table in the dining hall with a tankard, looking her over a moment, her eyes downcast til they came up to meet his. (Molly) Over a moment, her eyes downcast til they came up to meet his shyly, nervously. * Molly speaks quietly, opening her eyes (Molly) I thought he was the most beautiful man I had ever met, and scary and fascinating. (Molly) E: *he looks surprised, watching Morgan's reaction* * @Morgan bows his head slightly, looking humbled * Molly glances up at him, watching him intently a moment (Molly) ((Attention?)) (@Morgan) ((Edward)) (Molly) E: *he smiles, looking at them both, appearing to be patiently waiting* * @Morgan looks at his brother, sipping his drink (Molly) E: *he turns his attention back to Molly* What was your second impression? * Molly laughs, blushing, looking at Morgan again (Molly) I uhhh... I thought he was incredibly bossy and determined not to let us have any fun in the house (Molly) E: *he snorts then laughs, watching Morgan again* * @Morgan nods slowly (@Morgan) accurate * Molly smiles at him (Molly) Sorry, liebes herz [But as I said at His Grace's, I can stand for you to be very, very bossy in some regards] (@Morgan) No need to be sorry, its quite true (Molly) E: Not love at first sight then? *he addresses Molly* * Molly shakes her head a little {discomfort} "No, that was much later" (Molly) E: *he nods, obviously not picking up the microexpression* You did not get on well? (@Morgan) I was not easy to work with * Molly smiles a little, but there's some neutralness to it (Molly) I think he thought me most annoying, disobedient and flighty for a while (Molly) E: *he laughs at this* Spirited, perhaps? * Molly looks thoughtful, watching Morgan with a little shrug (Molly) I... I don't know really. *she sips her brandy. Beneath the table, she squeezes his thigh again* * @Morgan places a hand on top of hers (@Morgan) Edward, a change of subject if you will (Molly) E: *he nods* Will you be working with Witts for trade? (@Morgan) I suspect so, aye. * Molly gives Morgan a grateful smile. She moves her hand slightly higher up his thigh beneath the table, though her expression doesnt give her away (Molly) E: Picante is nice this time of year. I know a man there who makes fancy chocolates * @Morgan nods * Molly glances sidelong at Morgan (Molly) Does he make sweet chocolate cake? **she then looks innocently to Edward, but the mischief in her expression is still clear to Morgan* (Molly) E: *he nods* I will give you the direction for his shop in case you go there (@Morgan) Wont _that_ be lovely * Molly looks at Morgan, the mischievous look stronger (Molly) I would like to take plenty of sweet chocolate cake for the two week sail to Freiburg (@Morgan) That'll guarantee you and Varick have cake at least (Molly) It would... it would be most sad for you to have to go without pudding though... (Molly) E: You don't like it? *he looks at Morgan* * @Morgan shakes his head (@Morgan) I dont like sweet chocolate (Molly) I suppose I could find something else for you... *she squeezes his thigh again* (Molly) E: *he laughs, watching Morh (Molly) Morgan* * @Morgan sips his drink (@Morgan) I'm sure you could (Molly) Porridge, perhaps... * Molly sips her brandy. Edward snorts* (@Morgan) I could have them make you chicken porridge for breakfast, you know... (Molly) You could. But you could not force me to eat it (Molly) **The door opens, and James Schulz comes back in* (Molly) *Edward watches the young man, who looks troubled, a bit embarrassed, but not like he is bringing news. Edward frowns slightly* * Molly glances at James, then watches Morgan * @Morgan looks at Edward (@Morgan) see if the barman has any whiskey, two glasses if they do. If not, blokners * Molly is watching James closely, nodding slowly. Then he looks to Morgan (Molly) Edward* (Molly) Unless you object, I'll take him to the bar. (@Morgan) If you think you're more suited to aiding him, by all means (Molly) **Edward nods "Absolutely" (Molly) **Edward takes his own ale, and intercepts James, going to the bar. * Molly frowns, watching Morgan (Molly) What am I missing, liebling? (@Morgan) I don't think James understood where they were going... he looks a little shocked * Molly nods a little (Molly) He did grow up in a Nunnery... * @Morgan nods * Molly frowns (Molly) Very remiss of Sorgi to have taken him * @Morgan nods (Molly) I am surprised Claudia went (@Morgan) I suspect she'll follow Sorgi anywhere... * Molly looks confused (Molly) Why? (@Morgan) There's something there... not that she'll admit it yet, if she even realises it * Molly frowns (Molly) I haven't seen that, I thought they were just friends (@Morgan) So she says. * Molly nods slowly (Molly) I suppose all we can do is wait and see * Molly smiles at him (Molly) Unless you're planning to Captain Tsaylur her (@Morgan) I'm not sure I could... and even if I could, she'd do her damnedest to beat me for it (Molly) Best let them resolve it themselves then (@Morgan) Lets hope they don't have sex again before they do * Molly glances at him (Molly) Sorry, did you just say...? * @Morgan assumes a look of innocence * Molly squeezes his thigh firmly (Molly) Liebes herz! * Molly grins (Molly) Don't be such a horrendous tease! * @Morgan shrugs, smiling slightly * Molly glances around, checking they're unobserved, before watching him with mischief (Molly) I wouldn't recommend being a tease right now, Mon petit chou (@Morgan) oh really? * Molly slides her hand higher up his thigh, nearly to the top. She watches him closely, particularly his pupils (Molly) Really. If I were you, I would be repeating what I had said (@Morgan) but you are not me... therefore... * @Morgan sips his drink * Molly moves her hand higher, her index finger settling over the crease between his thigh and his groin. She bites her lip (Molly) That's a bold move of you, liebes herz (@Morgan) I'm not sure its me thats being bold... * Molly smiles playfully (Molly) You still won't tell me? (@Morgan) I'm fairly sure you heard me well enough (Molly) The problem is, Mon petit chou, if I heard you well enough, I have no excuse... * Molly raises an eyebrow with mischief (Molly) ** Edward and James are talking seriously at the bar, James drinking whiskey (@Morgan) You need an excuse? * Molly nods a little, looking thoughtful (Molly) I think I do (@Morgan) Well, if you didn't hear me, I'm not going to repeat myself * Molly smiles (Molly) Well that is unfortunate, isn't it? *she blushes, but runs her hand sideways, gliding gently over his crotch. She watches his reaction closely* * @Morgan shivers slightly * Molly applies careful pressure with her palm, smiling (Molly) Do you wish you had just repeated yourself now, mon petit chou? * @Morgan looks to think about it (@Morgan) No... not relaly * Molly curls her fingers around him as much as the fabric allows, assessing how much of a reaction the teasing has had (Molly) At some point, you will relent, I am sure... * @Morgan is growing hard (@Morgan) unlike some in my family, I am less a prude * Molly smiles, squeezing him rhythmically (Molly) Unfortunately for you, nor am I, especially after brandy (@Morgan) I had noticed * Molly starts to look very distracted, biting her lip, though she continues touching him * @Morgan fidgets (@Morgan) problem blossom? (Molly) I... ummm... No... just my imagination running away with me (@Morgan) oh? * Molly loosens her grip a little, running long, flat palmed strokes over his manhood. She moves in closer to be able to whisper to him (Molly) All the things I wish I could do to you with my hands, with my mouth * @Morgan nods * Molly watches his expression, continuing the caressing of him beneath the table (Molly) Is this making it difficult for you to talk, Mon petit chou? (@Morgan) A little, aye (Molly) Oh dear. For the sake of easy discourse, perhaps I should remove my hand *she continues just as she was* (@Morgan) If discourse is what you wish, aye (Molly) In preference to trying to arouse and torment you? No, I think not * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) thats what I was hoping * Molly watches him, sucking her lower lip (Molly) I am glad to hear that *her stroking becomes a little firmer, lengthening to include lighter touches over his balls as well* * @Morgan moves his hip to meet her hand, simultaneously sipping his drink * Molly fidgets a little beside him, recrossing her legs (Molly) How is it you manage to look so nonchalant? (@Morgan) If I don't, we get caught and you stop... * Molly slides her hand further towards his hip before pulling it back, her index finger sneaking through the gap at the side of the placket, managing to touch skin for the briefest moment before she withdraws her finger with a grin (Molly) And that would be a shame for you? (@Morgan) indeed (Molly) I cannot say I would be as nonchalant were your fingers stroking against me like this *she trails her fingers across him tip to root with slow, firm pressure *she watches his eyes* * @Morgan nods slightly, pupils wide * Molly looks thoughtful, smiling, speaking quietly (Molly) I suspect I would be a moaning... writhing... begging... mess * @Morgan fidgets, nodding * Molly wraps her hand around him again, squeezing and releasing rhythmically around his head (Molly) *whispers* Although it would be far too obvious what was occurring once you had had to push my skirts to my hips to get your fingers inside me * Molly looks quite pleased with herself and her teasing * @Morgan bucks slightly before regaining control of himself * Molly bites her lip hard, her grasp tightening, breathing speeding (Molly) *whispers* There is something intensely arousing about watching you struggle... (@Morgan) I suspect thats because you like that you can get this close to bringing down my concentration * Molly looks thoughtful, her grasping and releasing motion moving further down his shaft (Molly) Maybe... maybe I just like the moments where your admirable self-control is less effective... * @Morgan nods, glancing at Edward (Molly) **Edward has his hand on James shoulder, it's almost big brotherly. Both have their backs to the couple. * Molly takes the opportunity whilst he is distracted to put two fingers inside his placket and stroke up the side of his erection. Her expression is a polite, neutral smile, though her pupils are massive * @Morgan swells noticably * Molly licks her lower lip before biting it, then picks up her brandy in her left hand. She manages to wriggle her fingers further in, bringing them higher, the back of first knuckle of her index and middle finger lightly stroking his head * @Morgan shivers, sipping his drink (@Morgan) you get much more brazen and we're going to get caught * Molly glances at him over the rim of her glass (Molly) This is no less hidden than what I was doing before *she keeps the gentle rubbing within his trousers up* (@Morgan) I am aware of that but my reactions are somewhat more... pronounced * Molly drinks about half the glass (Molly) It's almost like gambling... how far can you push your luck... * @Morgan nods slightly * Molly applies a little more pressure, smiling. She glances around the tavern, noting Edward and James before looking back to Morgan (Molly) Besides, compared to how brazen I have a desire to be, I am behaving rather well (@Morgan) Thats rather shocking (Molly) That I wish to be more brazen, or that I am behaving well? (@Morgan) Mostly that you consider this to be being well behaved * Molly smiles (Molly) Everything is relative. If I wasn't being well behaved, I would already have undone one of your buttons and... *she just grins* * Molly runs her knuckles down from his tip to his base (@Morgan) climbed atop me? * Molly inhales sharply, making a quiet whimper that is thankfully concealed from the crowd by the drunken singing. She fidgets beside him (Molly) I... I wasn't thinking quite that brazen, as much as that would feel heavenly right now * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) what were you thinking? * Molly moves her knuckles back up, concentrating the stimulation on the sensitive point at the base of his head. She watches his expression (Molly) Undoing your trousers enough that I can wrap my hand around you and stroke you within my fist *she blushes, smiling* (@Morgan) That would still be rather brazen (Molly) It would... It would be risky... *she smiles, raising an eyebrow* * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) indeed * Molly watches him (Molly) In that instance, getting caught would be very hard to deny... * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) it would * Molly brings her fingers out, firmly stroking over him outside the fabric, gripping him and sliding her curved fingers downwards (Molly) A shame really... * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I agree * Molly watches him closely again, once more biting her lip (Molly) But then, what are the chances of being caught somewhere as busy and noisy as this... (@Morgan) given our luck? * Molly nods (Molly) But then I like to play for high stakes... *she continues firmly rubbing him, her hand roaming over him possessively (@Morgan) I may have noticed that (Molly) So it would not surprise you if my fingers went like this... *she moves her fingers up and towards his left towards the button, keeping her expression relaxed and nonchalant * @Morgan takes a deep breath * Molly glances at him, biting her lip again. She taps her nail against the button, raising an eyebrow * @Morgan takes a sip of his drink, glancing around (Molly) You're going to need a whole new Reasons I Am A Bad Girl list for this journey, aren't you? (Molly) **The tavern is louder as people get more drunk and silly. Edward has moved on to whiskey, but whatever he's explaining to James has them engaged * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) clearly * Molly 's fingers go just inside the top corner of the placket right where they need to be to undo the button. She watches him a moment, not moving, just letting the anticipation build * @Morgan sits still (Molly) *she whispers* do you want me to stop? (@Morgan) honestly? No * Molly pops the button instantly (Molly) I was hoping you would say that. (@Morgan) oh? * Molly casually picks up her brandy in her left hand, and wraps her fingers around his hardness (Molly) Because that is so... much... better... * @Morgan sighs deeply * Molly fidgets as she sips the drink, and envelopes him in her hand firmly. She glances at him with an innocentish smile (Molly) Don't you think? (@Morgan) very much so * Molly runs her fist up to his tip, and then back down, firm but slow. She watches the room casually (Molly) I am keeping a lookout (@Morgan) so I see * Molly strokes him again, a little faster. She glances at him to see how much his expression and body language might be revealing * @Morgan looks to have settled comfortably, if not relaxed * Molly frowns slightly (Molly) Is this... am I not pleasing you? (@Morgan) I... am trying... to not give it away * Molly nods, looking relieved (Molly) I was little concerned... (@Morgan) I'm trying to not get caught * Molly speeds up a little more, concentrating the stimulation on his shaft (Molly) The problem is, it's difficult not to make it as challenging for you as possible. * Molly glances around the noisy tavern again, watching the people not watching them (@Morgan) I'm torn between wanting to know how and not wanting to risk getting caught * Molly moves her hand up, briefly stroking just the engorged head of his manhood before moving away (Molly) That's usually effective * @Morgan bucks slightly * Molly smiles a little {lust, arousal} (Molly) So I'd best not keep doing that, hmm? * @Morgan exhales (@Morgan) I suppose not * Molly sips the brandy nonchalantly as she scans the room whilst doing it again (Molly) This is the thing I need to stop doing? * @Morgan nods slightly (@Morgan) apparently * Molly does a couple of long strokes before returning to that stimulation again (Molly) It would be awful if I just could not help myself, wouldn't it? * @Morgan grunts quietly, thrusting his hips gently (@Morgan) awful * Molly glances at him, swallowing hard, breathing shallow. She now changes to longer strokes of his shaft that almost reach his head but frustratingly don't (Molly) Are you regretting being such an awful tease yet, Mon petit chou? *she giggles * (@Morgan) I'm beginning to... but no * Molly smiles, sipping the brandy, watching Edward and James, and placing a few tight stokes on the prominent ridge around his head * @Morgan takes a sharp breath before bringing his glass to his mouth * Molly watches him a moment. Though her expression stays pleasantly neutral, he sees increased arousal In her micro-expression (MollyK) [20:47] * Molly watches him a moment. Though her expression stays pleasantly neutral, he sees increased arousal In her micro-expression * @Morgan exhales slowly (MollyK) Are you enjoying your evening? **her strokes go back to avoiding his head (@Morgan) Immensely. * MollyK grins (MollyK) I am glad, it's a nice tavern... Though it is somewhat warm... * MollyK continues gliding her fist up and down his shaft only, watching around * @Morgan nods slightly ** Molly has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) (MollyK) I also suspect someone may have spilled a drink on my seat *she smirks a little* * @Morgan looks slightly confused * MollyK giggles. She very loosely brings her grasp to his head as if about to provide that intensity before returning to his shaft, watching his expression * @Morgan holds his breath momentarily (MollyK) I appear to be sat somewhere quite damp * MollyK does the same thing again, briefly watching Edward * @Morgan exhales forcefully * Moll bites her lip, After a few moments again on his shaft, she glides up, and this time does apply the pressure as she slides her hand over his head. She watches him as she does it * @Morgan breathes deeply, slowly ** MollyK has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) * Moll watches him, brows together, wide pupils, flushed cheeks. She inhales deeply through her nose, exhaling slowly through her mouth (Moll) Liebes herz? (@Morgan) ye... yes? (Moll) If you want any chance of us getting so far as the privacy of our own room, rather than just up against the side of the tavern, I think you need to finish your drink. * @Morgan sighs slightly before finishing his drink * Moll frowns a little (Moll) I'm sorry, have I disappointed you somehow? (@Morgan) Only in so much as I was enjoying that... and now I need to calm down a little * Moll 's ministrations become a little slower the she removes her hand (Moll) I could continue... (@Morgan) But then we'd never reach our room... (Moll) No we wouldn't... * Moll smiles a little (@Morgan) which, much as I would love to continue... I would prefer to at the very least spend myself within you * Moll makes a noise of arousal that's only just quiet enough to get away with, eyes on his (Moll) Yes, that's rather a pressing requirement for me... *she looks like she might say more but instead finishes her brandy* * Moll glances over at Edward and James, fidgeting a little and fiddling with her lip. It is clear that touching him was the focus keeping her own reactions in check * @Morgan nods, tucking himself away * Moll looks back at him, breathing slowly, sucking her lower lip, voice quiet (Moll) I suspect though, my imagination with play out my continuing to stroke and tease you like that until the inevitable occurs and you somehow have to keep yourself under control whilst spending yourself within my hand and your trousers *she blushes harder whilst whispering this, fidgeting noticeably in her seat* * @Morgan nods (@Morgan) I rather think thats what mine will fixate on for now, also (Moll) If you are sure you would not prefer that... * @Morgan shakes his head (@Morgan) No. I want you. * Moll nods vigorously (Moll) And I you * Moll glances around the room. She frowns briefly (Moll) Edward has just finished his drink, as has James (@Morgan) problem? (Moll) We would have had the decision made for us I suspect **Edward pays, and the two men start moving towards the table * Moll becomes neutral, glancing to Morgan (Moll) Are you ready or do you need a diversion? * @Morgan fidgets slightly buttoning himself again (@Morgan) I'm good * Moll nods, taking a deep breath (Moll) E: *he looks to Morgan* I need to get back and relieve Father, are you coming back to the Inn or staying for another drink? (@Morgan) I think we're about ready to retire... (Moll) **James looks calmer and happier now* * Moll nods, standing up {tipsyness, arousal} * @Morgan stands, offering his arm (Moll) E: *he nods, leading the way. James follows along. Molly glances at Morgan, giggling, and interlinks her arm through his* (Moll) **The air outside is very cool, and there's not much light aside from a few lamps at the Inn and Tavern, though much more light over at the brothel. Molly takes a look at the side of the tavern as they pass, then glances at him, trying not to giggle* (Moll) **They get in to the Inn quickly, and James says a polite good night, leaving the three of them (Moll) E: *he looks at them as they're walking* I was right, I was absolutely better suited. (@Morgan) I may have surprised you (Moll) E: *he laughs* I am very sure you don't have the required experience * Moll glances at Morgan then smiles sweetly at Edward (Moll) I am very glad you were able to go and be with James, Edward * @Morgan nods (Moll) E: *he inclines his head, utterly missing the point* did want to come and check on Varick? (Moll) **Morgan feels a sudden sense of frustration * @Morgan glances at Molly (@Morgan) No, I trust you to keep him safe. You'll let us know if theres any issue * Moll is trying very hard to keep her neutral expression (Moll) E: *he nods* Of course. I'll leave you here at your room then. *he bows* Good night * @Morgan inclines his head, opening the door * Moll politely bids Edward good night before going in, placing the candle she had been carrying on a table far from either the bed or the door * @Morgan follows her in * Moll speaks softly (Moll) Best lock it * @Morgan does so * Moll starts undoing her dress, watching him (Moll) Do I have time to get undressed? *she smiles playfully* * @Morgan looks to be weighing this up * Moll stops what she's doing, watching him intently (Moll) If the answer is no, that's is also fine (@Morgan) I _think_ I can control myself long enough * Moll smiles, nodding slowly (Moll) Alright * Moll leaves her dress a minute, eyes on his as she puts her foot on their chest to slowly undo her boots, far slower than it needs to be (Moll) If you're sure you can control yourself... (@Morgan) Sure? Not at all * Moll does the other boot, then slides her skirt almost to her hip to slowly slide down the garter and roll down her stocking, still watching his expression with mischief (@Morgan) You're being cruel... * Moll frowns deeply (Moll) I am sorry, I was trying to play (@Morgan) I'm merely telling you my restraint is... being tested * Moll divests of the other stocking rapidly (Moll) Perhaps that was my aim... the point in which your need for me outweighed that dracheisen self control (@Morgan) I wasn't complaining... * Moll nods in realisation, and undoes the green overdress slowly, keeping a watch on him, and shedding it to the floor * @Morgan breathes in slowly * Moll then slowly takes off the underdress, dropping it likewise, leaving corset and shift * @Morgan moves, suddenly upon her, biting her neck and placing a hand between her legs * Moll moans loudly, tilting her head away and her hips towards. She is absolutely soaked * @Morgan bites her harder, shoving his fingers inside her * Moll pops that same button on his placket, thrusting towards his fingers, her body burning brightly with desire. She makes a deep sound of relief, pleasure already rapidly building * @Morgan thrusts his fingers into her, rotating his hips to free himself (Moll) On the bed, please. *she groans, rhythmically tightening and relaxing around his digits* * @Morgan 's ministrations get rougher (@Morgan) You'll take it where I decide * Moll climaxes instantly at this, her body becoming tense, gripping his fingers in violent shudders. The noise she makes is intense, and loud enough to have been heard over the singing if they had still been in the tavern. She clings to his shirt like an anchor in a storm * @Morgan continues his movements * Moll manages to do nothing other than continue to orgasm over and over from his movements, entirely focused on the pleasure and also managing to stay upright, which is a struggle in itself as her knees go weak. She opens her eyes, a deep submission in her expression, both adoration and ecstasy * @Morgan withdraws his fingers, shoving her down onto the bed before lifting one leg to his shoulder and climbing atop her * Moll gets some functioning thought back, undoing the drawstring on her neckline enough to ease it down and expose her breasts, nipples hard and prominent. She watches him, looking desperate and eager * @Morgan grabs one of her breasts, pinching the nipple as he drives himself into her * Moll arches up, the dual sensation sweeping her to oblivion again. She clenches firmly around his erection * @Morgan grunts, pounding his hardness into her relentlessly (Molly) [22:42] * Moll watches him with intensity, then brings her right hand between them, rubbing fast tight circles on her clit, moaning loudly in rhythm with his thrusting (Molly) [22:42] * Moll watches him with intensity, then brings her right hand between them, rubbing fast tight circles on her clit, moaning loudly in rhythm with his thrusting ** Moll has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) ** Moll has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) * @Morgan 's breathing gets shallower as his pace picks up * @Morgan 's breathing gets shallower as his pace picks up * Molly peaks again, writhing beneath him.
