erich smiles when ada puts her head on his chest."guten morgen,miss von wannemaker." erich says and kisses the top of her head."your hair smells great." erich curses quietly,as that is one of the creepiest things you can say to someone.

erich kisses her again. "wedding? you work quick,miss ada!" erich laughs and hugs her tight.



karoliena is in the kitchen,making crepes. she flings the first one out the porthole. the seagulls seem to appreciate the fact the first crepe is always the bad one.

"oh.."erich laughs." yuppers,our little nina and castor are growing up." he pretends to wipe a tear from his eye.then he sighs contentedly.

karoliena looks up from her pan and jumps a little.not expecting nichole of all people. "well,if it isnt our little jailbird!" karoliena smiles and pours her a glass of oj."i dont see any prison tattoos,so i guess you made it out ok?"

erich kisses the top of her head again. "one day,i will learn german,and know if you've been insulting me this entire time." he laughs "21,eh? i'm sure that wont be a problem,someone like you? shit,you should have them lining up to marry you."

"dont let erich know that.he's seen too many "girls in prison" films and swears that is the reality.i find it best to not destroy his delusions." karoliena puts another crepe on an already large pile of crepes. karoliena smiles."yup! nina and i took virginia shopping for her dress.it's beautiful! dont ask how much we spent on the silly thing.lets just say,we could've bought a used hyundai for slightly more....do you need a dress? i'm sure we could fit in another trip out."

erich hugs her tightly. "23 isnt old! why,you're just entering your prime. you wont be a crazy cat lady,i promise. i know i love you. i dont love just anyone you know. i cant stand mike eisner." erich says with a laugh.

karoliena lights up. "yes! virginia is the greatest.she alone makes me jealous that nina is marrying castor! not that i dont have a little crush on the man,but you knoow what i'm saying."she shrugs. "im sure normal clothes are fine.castor and nina let virginina choose most everything.we'll be dining on corndogs and fish tikka masala. fancy dresses probably are a bad idea.mine is black,so it's going to show up EVERYTHING." karoliena laughs.

"weddings make me cry,almost as much as the story "charlotte's web" that spider loved wilbur so much." erich looks down and nods to her." yes."he says shrugging. " i dont mind admitting when i love someone.i know it seems odd given my lifestyle,but yes.i do."

karoliena sits down after turning the stove off." i can see castor in her...what was marie like? i cant picture castor with anyone other than nina.he seems so smitten with her." karoliena laughs. "yeah,i'll stick out like a sore thumb.but virginia loved it.i think she thinks i look like morticia addams." karoliena laughs.

ooc:you better get your ass in gear,missy! i think it should be fine. their articles are pretty well respected.which is good,because as porn mags go...meh. larry flynt has the right idea.

erich smiles at her widely. "you are very welcome.thank you for not thinking i'm a freak for telling you." erich holds her head and starts to sniffle." and when three of charlotte's daughters decide to stay? " erich sighs. "such a wonderful story."

karoliena nods "so marie was the anti nina? how could she just leave virginia like that? i thought part of the whole estrogen thing was motherliness? i feel it towards virginia,and she isnt even mine. honestly,i never saw nina as the mother type,but now? it's amazing to watch her with virginia." karoliena laughs."with enough make up,i can stave off miss houston for quite a few more years!" karoliena hesitates before speaking next."um...erica has decided on going to the wedding..with..her." karoliena looks around," i didnt want it to be a surprise to see them both there."

erich laughs heartily. "ok,i dont want to talk about charlotte's web anymore.the amazing sex is far less likely to make me cry...though it's almost that amazing." he squeezes her tightly.


karoliena looks out the porthole and back to nichole." im sorry for bringing it up.but it has been quite the elephant in the room around here. the other night castor upset erica,then nina and castor argued about."karoliena shakes her head and laughs."crazy shit. no,i know erica wont start anything.nina is her best friend,and erica wouldnt want to ruin her day.she'll probably have natalya on a short leash...maybe literally,knowing those two."

erich clears his throat and smiles up at her."is making me cry what you're aiming for?" he laughs and rubs her legs.


"hate is a strong word.i think it's more bitter indifference on erica's part." karoliena smiles "oh erich and i are fine. thick as thieves and all that.since erica has been out of the picture,we are much closer. how's things with sam the man?" karoliena asks excitedly. " i love you two together."

erich holds the small of her back and kisses ada."your lips are so soft,they are like little velvet twizzlers.i'd like to give you that compliment,but alas.i'm too manly...charlottes web being the exception."erich laughs.

"im so glad to see you.i was very concerned you werent going to make it in time. i know that would've just destroyed castor." karoliena laughs and holds nichole's hands. "great! sam is a sweetheart,i'm glad someone has given him a chance." karoliena giggles. "from what i hear,virginia took to nina right away.she didnt even mind when nina started referring to her as "her daughter".in fact,virginia is sleeping with nina right now." she laughs. "its funny how castor is old fashioned enough to not want to see nina before the wedding."
