** You have joined #7thsea
(Sorgi) ((Your turn?))
(Morgan) why is she doing that?
* Sorgi shrugs
(Sorgi) Makes her feel better
(Morgan) Given what he's done and the sort of person he is, is that wise?
* Sorgi looks at Morgan
(Sorgi) Do you think I would let her hurt herself like that, m'lord?
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) sorry
(Sorgi) I understand,  you love her, you're protective of those you love, m'lord, but... I'm not going to put her at risk if I think she can't handle it.
(Morgan) I know... but if she's half as good at faking it as I can be...
(Sorgi) She wants to do it, m'lord. Make her stop if you must, but be aware that knowing you trust that she can do the right thing by you is important
* Morgan nods
* Sorgi nods
(Sorgi) Once we're out of the dock, this is a nice smooth stretch to sail. The weather also looks stable. Why don't you take command for the day, m'lord?
(Morgan) I'd like that
* Sorgi nods "take half an hour then, and we'll be ready"
* Sorgi gives the command to the crew to put out to sea, and activity begins all over the vessel
* Morgan wanders down to the brig
** You're now known as Claudia
* Claudia is sat in a chair, heels up on the wall, effectively barring Morgan's way
(Morgan) Comfy?
(Claudia) Yep. Nice and quiet too
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) good
(Claudia) Told him he can only speak to me when I speak to him. Shame we can't do it to everyone on Theah
(Morgan) oh thats brilliant
* Claudia grins
(Claudia) Heinzharold next?
(Morgan) thats surprisingly tempting
* Claudia grins
(Claudia) We could make him forget the word bubbies, forever.
(Morgan) but _we_ would remember it
* Claudia nods
(Claudia) Suddenly pops in your head when you see them too.
(Morgan) wonderful
(Claudia) Yep. What are you doing down here?
(Morgan) Came to see you, actually... wanted to check you're alright
* Claudia nods
(Claudia) I'm good
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) want some coffee sent down?
(Claudia) Please. How did you sleep?
(Morgan) badly... was weird... tell you about it when we don't have an audience
* Claudia nods
(Claudia) I'll come get the coffee with you
(Morgan) Sure? Need someone to replace you?
(Claudia) He's not going anywhere
* Morgan nods, wandering back towards the galley
* Claudia goes along
(Claudia) Weird like "could happen"?
(Morgan) No no... not unless I go back in time... No, _he_ turned up to blackmail me... had one of those seeds used on him and at my fathers breakfast table admitted what he'd done to Elsie because he couldn't get Molly... while I took him outside to butcher him, he let slip that he'd set a fire in the house, and I could hear them, Molly, mother and father screaming... 
(Morgan) then Molly appears beside me, says its a dream and I need to wake up... then I feel like I've been _shoved_ and I wake up
* Claudia shakes her head
(Claudia) Wow, Morgan. That's pretty bad
* Morgan nods
(Claudia) That last bit... reckon she hopped into your dream?
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) I do
(Claudia) Had that before? **he did, in Zweibrucke, where he was back on the Oreste and was flogging and berating himself. When he saw Molly she had been fully aware of it**
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) just once
* Claudia nods
(Claudia) Did you get to butcher him?
(Morgan) No, I woke up...
(Claudia) Pity
* Claudia gets the coffee sorted
(Morgan) Probably just as well... 
(Claudia) You'd spread his entrails across the Sudlache for that
(Morgan) Yes, I would... though I seem to recall wanting to peel him like a potato and cooking him
* Claudia nods
(Claudia) Deserves it
* Morgan nods
(Claudia) Less than a week and he will be dead.
(Morgan) Assuming proceedings don't take longer than expected
(Claudia) That likely?
(Morgan) I'll be encouraging them along...
* Claudia nods
(Claudia) Get it done, move on.
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) Right, I've got to go take command... 
* Claudia nods
(Claudia) I'll be up and around at some point
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) alright
* Claudia takes her cup
(Claudia) I hope he likes coffee
* Morgan shrugs
(Morgan) No idea
(Morgan) wait... no....
(Morgan) I don't care
(Claudia) I'm going to drink it nice and slow, and he cant even ask me for any
* Morgan nods
* Claudia goes back to the brig
* Morgan heads back up on deck
(Claudia) **The weather is surprisingly good given what they've endured. The sky is blue with only a few clouds. The cold doesnt spoil it. The sea is very smooth, there's a good breeze favouring them. All in all, it is the perfect day to be a Captain, and this close to Foxcroft it's satisfying to live out his childhood dream on a stretch of water he so often dreamt it on.
(Claudia) **Sorgi and Claudia have flitted about, just being a reassuring back up, but they've give no opinions on his decisions, only answering the few minor questions he has had. The crew respond just as well to him as to Sorgi, and everything goes smoothly. They pass the Blessing early on, and he has the man in the nest check for it as long as he can until it is out of sight.
(Claudia) **At just before four o'clock, when first dog's watch is nearing, Sorgi comes to him**
(Claudia) Go on, m'lord, you've done an excellent days sail, go and eat, get some downtime. I have her from here.
** You're now known as Sorgi
(Morgan) aye captain
* Sorgi smiles, getting on with it
* Morgan heads off to get some coffee
(Sorgi) **he finds some easily
* Sorgi is on the floor nailing bits of wood together. The window seat is starting to resemble an actual seat
** You're now known as HH
* HH is on the floor nailing bits of wood together. The window seat is starting to resemble an actual seat
(Morgan) is that level?
(HH) Where y' been all day? Thought you were 'elping with this
* HH puts a coin on it, and it stays still
(Morgan) sorry... Sorgi asked if I'd like take command for the day
(HH) Enjoy it?
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) oh yes
* HH nods
(HH) I'm glad for ya, man
* Morgan puts his coffee down
(Morgan) Right, what you want me doing?
* HH hands him some nails, directing him
(HH) How y' doing?
(Morgan) Alright
(HH) Stayin' away from him?
* HH pinches Morgan's coffee whilst he watches him work
(Morgan) I have
(HH) No interrogatin'?
* Morgan shakes his head
(HH) Prob'ly best
(Morgan) I imagine so
(HH) Nothin' he can says gonna make it better
(Morgan) No, nothing at all
(HH) Sleep okay?
* Morgan frowns
(Morgan) no
(HH) Dietlinde again?
(Morgan) No... him
(HH) Set fire to 'im?
(Morgan) was gearing up to it... he'd set  fire to the house, with my mother, father and Molly inside
* HH winces
(HH) Fucking 'ell
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) I'd dragged him outside to deal with him... suddenly Molly appears, tells me they're not being hurt and I need to wake up, then it feels like I'm shoved sideways and I wake up
(HH) Pretty weird
* HH drinks another mouthful of Morgan's coffee
(HH) Reck'n that was yer wife dropping in?
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) undoubtedly
(HH) Not f' long enough *he smirks*
(Morgan) eh?
* HH wriggles his eyebrows suggestively
(Morgan) Dont be absurd
(HH) What,  y' can't do it in a dream? Seems like a wasted talent then!
* HH grins
(Morgan) didn't have much choice in waking up
* HH nods
(HH) Better'an a nightmare
(Morgan) very true. Scared the hell out of the cat
(HH) **he laughs** You get yer package from yer uncle?
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) haven't opened it, mind... unsurprisingly I was tired
(HH) I was shattered last night. Quick chat with my lil darlin', then fast asleep
* HH grins "Not even a euphemism!"
* Morgan laughs
(Morgan) won't be long now
* HH nods
(HH) Cant come too soon
* Morgan nods
(HH) Gonna show me what's in yer package then? I'll get on with tha' tomorrow
* Morgan fetches it, putting it on the desk
* HH comes to look
(HH) **The three bits of mirror are wrapped in cloth with painted and decorated surfaces as agreed.
* HH looks at them "Need some water?"
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) aye
* HH goes into the bedroom, and there's  sloshing. He returns with the wash bowl and a cream flannel held by the very corner, grinning
(HH) Here y' go
* Morgan shrugs, using it to clean off the mirrors
* HH laughs, using the towel from the back of his waistband to pat them dry
(HH) That woulda had you blushing like beetroot a few weeks ago
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) aye, I've no doubt
(HH) **On the surface of the single mirror it looks like paper. It says " I will check at 8 in the morning and 8 in the evening. I will see your note like this if you leave it against the mirror. Love, Papa**
(HH) Okay, that is pretty impressive!
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) very
(HH) Where'dya say these are from? *he picks up the other two
(Morgan) Innesbruck
* HH nods, handing Morgan one and taking the other to the bedroom door
* HH sticks the mirror inside the room with his arm extended
(HH) So you can see in there while yer out here?
* Morgan looks at the mirror
(HH) **that is how it's working. The mirror he is holding shows what the other mirror should reflect
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) aye
* HH goes in with it, then flips Morgan off in the reflection with a grin
(Morgan) All I see is an ass
(HH) Just a normal mirror at yer end then!
* HH comes back in
* Morgan puts it on the table face down
(HH) Could use 'em to keep an eye on the brig
(Morgan) Wouldn't want him seeing out though
* HH nods
(HH) Gonna be back for the other one at eight?
(Morgan) I think so
(HH) Other side of it is with Forrester?
(Morgan) of that one, yes
(HH) How often does Molly talk to 'im with the other mirror?
(Morgan) ((twice a week?))
(HH) ((Wednesdays and Sundays usually, it's now Monday))
(Morgan) twice a week, wednesday and sunday
(HH) Be able to find out how she was yes'day
* Morgan nods
(HH) That's summat to look forward to
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) aye, it is
(HH) **They stop near Denholme, though they don't dock for the night, just weighing anchor when it gets too dark to go on. Eight is rapidly approaching, so he has to eat quick to be ready for David
** You're now known as Forrester
* Forrester slides the paper off at one minute before eight, smiling when he sees Morgan
(Forrester) Good evening, Morgan
(Morgan) David, how are you?
(Forrester) Well, and you?
(Morgan) I've certainly been worse
(Forrester) How is it going? Have you found him yet?
(Morgan) He's in the brig, we're heading back... we've anchored not far out of Denholme
* Forrester smiles
(Forrester) That's good news. Would you like me to tell Moll on Wednesday?
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) please... how is she?
(Forrester) She misses you dreadfully, but she's fine. She keeps herself very busy
(Morgan) She's written me a months worth of letters, which has helped
* Forrester nods
(Forrester) How are you? She will ask me when I say we've talked
(Morgan) I'm alright... a few nightmares, a few rough nights... but we're managing
* Forrester nods
(Forrester) Everyone in Sudlachenburg is well. Adalbrecht has adjusted somewhat to the situation with Jarvinia so he is less angry with Edward. Your mothers are well
(Morgan) I'm glad to hear that
(Forrester) Did Yensid find you?
* Morgan nods
* Forrester nods
(Forrester) Good. This is very useful, isnt it?
(Morgan) very, yes... hard to explain though
(Forrester) It's been getting more difficult to explain such frequent visits to Innesbruck, this will make that easier
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) a pity Eiseners are so backwards about this sort of thing...
* Forrester nods
(Forrester) I agree. I'm expected back downstairs. Leave a note like I did and I can reply. Anything else you want me to say to Moll on Wednesday?
(Morgan) That we're fine, we love them all and we'll be home soon
* Forrester nods
(Forrester) I will do that
(Morgan) Thank you David
(Forrester) Stay safe, Morgan
(Morgan) and you
* Forrester puts a blank piece of paper on the mirror and he's gone.
* Morgan does the same
(Forrester) **Claudia appears after dinner, and they play cards a while until it is bedtime. HH hangs back when she's gone** Spoke to 'im?
** You're now known as HH
* Morgan nods
(Morgan) he's going to give them all our love...
* HH smiles
(HH) Good. Not long now
(Morgan) No, not long at all
(HH) I'll leave y' to yer reading. Night man
(Morgan) night HeinzHarold
* HH goes off humming the Peaches and Cream song
** You're now known as Ulysses
* Ulysses is on the stool as usual
* Morgan does his nightmare prep, fetching the negligee and book before climbing into the bed
(Ulysses) **He has fri eve, sat eve, sun eve, mon eve and mon morning still unread**
* Morgan reads monday morning 
(Ulysses) Monday 26th, morning. Good morning my love! One more washing day without you things, but I pray that next week you and your shirts and various other items that need washing will be here. However, it will also be your birthday, so I may have the staff wash _most_ of it. I hope wherever you are you are now contemplating my joy upon seeing your most beloved face once more. My love, Mxx
* Morgan flicks back to friday evening
(Ulysses) Friday 24th evening. So, as to what I wanted to say… I wanted to tell you that now was the moment if you wished to see or touch me undressed. In reality this would have been very silly! However, in the fantasy I will play out in our bed as I touch myself, it will be well received.
(Ulysses) I hear the stunned silence it draws from you, but resolve not to excuse or explain myself. I wait, my invitation open. The chair creaks as you stand, your very faint bootsteps as you approach. My skin is cold, your fingertips down the centre of my back are warm. I shiver, not from the cold but from the excitement.
(Ulysses) Your hands caress my back, my shoulders, my arms. It feels incredible. I feel you becoming bolder, not just tracing but holding, squeezing, your hands moving faster. You run your hand down my hip and over my bottom, and I moan with enjoyment.
(Ulysses) You squeeze me there before standing close behind me and kiss my neck. Your hand skates my stomach as it twitches with what you know (but I am innocent to) is desire. I can feel you are hard against me, and that is so exciting. My nakedness pleases you, my body pleases you.
(Ulysses) You move slowly until you are sucking on my neck, a hand on my breast. I feel how you grow even harder. The other hand moves lower, towards the apex of my thighs. You pause. Your voice is rough with desire "Even here?" I nod. I have no idea why you would wish to touch me there, but I am curious. I trust you. I know you know what you are doing.
(Ulysses) Your finger gently curves towards the soft crevice of my core, and parts me a little. I am so tingly and warm here, but I do not understand why. You groan. It is a noise that makes my whole body turn weak and wanting.
(Ulysses) I don't know what I need, but you do. Within the slick heat, you find the swollen bead that will bring my pleasure,  and stroke it with the lightest strokes. I don't know how anything can feel so very good. I gasp loudly.
(Ulysses) You check I am alright. I tell you I've never felt anything like this before. You offer to stop, and I ask if it is okay that it feels so amazing. You tell me how it is normal, that I am safe and it will only get better.
(Ulysses) You continue to pleasure me, and I can think of nothing but how good it is and how you are moving gently against me with your hardness. The hand on my breast is getting firmer, almost possessive.
(Ulysses) We both make sounds of pleasure, building, blossoming. It feels like something is coming, intensifying. You provide gentle reassurance, it is okay, it is supposed to be like this, it is going to get intensely pleasurable very soon.
(Ulysses) You can hear it in my breathing and whimpers, feel it in how I am grinding back against you as you thrust against me, your own pleasure growing from the stimulation.
(Ulysses) With a deep breath, I peak from your rubbing,  more pleasure than I feel I can bear, my whole body lit up with it. I moan your name. I feel the thrusting movement against my bottom change as I orgasm once more, and then you grind to me, body turning tense.
(Ulysses) You groan "oh fuck" into my ear before you then shudder deeply, your release shooting forth in strong pulses into the fabric of your trousers, very hot and thick. I climax again. I can feel this new wet heat between us, even through the material. Together we breathe heavily, our satiated bodies close.
(Ulysses) That is what I will think of tonight, your fingers pleasuring me and you spending yourself into your clothing from the pressure of my derriere and the excitement of having your hands on me and making me orgasm. Goodnight, my love xxx
* Morgan closes the book, putting aside before pulling the negligee close and looking at the cat
(Morgan) come on
* Ulysses goes and gets into the bed with a questioning miaow
(Morgan) come on, time to sleep
* Ulysses settles and does si
(Ulysses) So*
* Morgan settles to do the same
** You are now disconnected
