Molly comes into Milliways quietly, holding a bundle in a soft yellow blanket in her arms. She stops at the bar to get a tray with tea and a plate of fruits and cheeses, then levitates it to a nearby booth, where she settles down for a quiet hour with her infant son.

If you know her, you may want to come and welcome William to Miliways.

"Bebbee?" says a little person, running up.

[mollyprewett]

"Jack! Look at you! You've gotten so big!"

Molly smiles as she lowers the baby carefully down so that Jack can see him.

"This is William."

[vs_nuggan]

"'lo." Jack says, reaching a little hand towards William.

"Wiyum."

[mollyprewett]

Molly grins widely.

"That's right! Very good! He's too little to play yet."

William's tiny hands flail a little, and he regards Jack with as alert an expression as a baby can have at this age.

Wayne frowns from his seat at the bar as he looks over at the woman with her child. Buffers are insane, sure, but who would bring a baby into a bar inside a bathroom inside a law firm? Especially a woman who he doesn't remember seeing working there before.

Actually, come to think of it, he doesn't remember seeing any of these people working in the firm. And, with the way some of them look, he'd have remembered.

"Excuse me," he finally says to her. "Do you really think this is the best environment for an infant?"

[mollyprewett]

Molly looks at him in surprise.

"Why? Is there something dangerous going on right now?"

Sometimes the bar can get strange, but it seems quiet at the moment.

[malloyisrich]

"I certainly hope not. But... it's a bar. You don't bring children into bars."

[mollyprewett]

"It's a restaurant, hotel and bar. Such things are perfectly acceptable where I live, and I actually have rooms upstairs, in addition to my home in London."

She smiles, keeping her tone friendly. He must be new around here.

"I'm sure it's fine. Have you been coming here long?"

Ginny looks over and her heart stops. She knew. she was sure she had been told about the baby but still.. She knew that this Molly wasn't her Mum. But still would the baby be her brother anyway?

[mollyprewett]

[[ooc: heading to bed, but slowtime is great!]]

That is a question that Molly doesn't have an answer to. Cain would probably say that genetically speaking, that Ginny would be William's half-sister.

Blissfully unaware of Ginny's internal existential crisis, Molly sips her tea and makes silly faces at the baby.

[[OOC: For sure]]

Ginny not sure what to do just walks over to Molly then takes a deep breath

"Oh Hey Molly"

There is a smile no hint of her internal fight.

[mollyprewett]

"Ginny! How have you been? It's been so long since I've been in here!"

She unwraps William a little, so Ginny can see him.

"This is William."

No, they aren't planning on calling him Bill.

[missginnytonic]

Ginny sits down looking at Molly as she listens. knowing the Home Molly talks about isn't they're own.

"Wow that does sounds like an adventure. I'm glad it worked out for you. and it seems every thing is just peachy now"

[mollyprewett]

"Well, there are a few things to be worked out, but for now, I'm very happy."

She senses an unease in Ginny, and wishes there was something she could do about it, but there really isn't. In another life, Ginny might have been her daughter, but this isn't another life, for her.

"How are things going back in your world?"

[missginnytonic]

Ginny Leans back in her seat and licks her lips as she thinks slowly.

"Not too much. Just been cleaning out the house. getting ready for summer or something I'm not sure. And a Birthday party for Harry"

yeah she don't know what to say. with out saying to much so she goes safe maybe she looks wistful about Harry.

[mollyprewett]

She is relieved at a subject change, if Ginny is going to be uncomfortable with William.

"Harry is the boy you like, isn't it? How old is he going to be?"
