I know not why I behaved as I did. When I became a child, I knew myself and this place, and all the memories of my life, but as the days wore on, I remembered me less and less, and wanted naught by my mother, who is long dead and buried

Floods and ports have that way about them. Getting into your mind. Warping what you think.

Delayed, WOO

[itweresport]

I like it not, Iago.

[inhumandog]

You are not supposed to like them.

Are you okay? It's hard when the floods here take away your identity, even when it's only for a few days.

Delayed YAY

[itweresport]

I think I am unharmed.

When a child is faced with something large and foreboding, the mother is often the first, and often only, thought- protection, familiarity, regardless of her state of being.

I'm sorry you found none of that comfort, even a surrogate.

[itweresport]

I have long been without a mother - as well you know.

[a_bit_put_upon]

I do. There were plenty of maternal figures about, however, who would have been happy to help you, had you found trust in them to do so.

Miss Parker became as my friend, Ruth. I could not turn to her.

It wasn't your fault, miss, we were all swept up by an event we had no control over.

Though my younger self was distressed by your... reaction, had I been older I would have tried to help you, I am sorry that I wasn't in a condition to do so.

Delayed LOL

You have often been kind to me, Mr. Fraser.

[bob_fraser_snr]

Thank you for understanding, Abigail.

It's magic of all kinds 'round here - sooner you get used to it, the better.

Especially the part where they muck around with our dignity, they seem to like that part.

DELAYED WOOO

[itweresport]

Aye, that they do.
