Summary
Maelle lifts her hand slowly, trailing it up smooth leather and black fabric. Her fingers find twisted skin, running over the many bumps and contortions, until her palm comes to a stop on the white-haired woman's cheek.
Alicia is staring at her - wide-eyed, more confused than anything. She thought Maelle would understand.
or: At The Reacher, Maelle refuses to gommage Alicia.

Summary
Something travels to Aline's ears then, a very faint cry carried to her on the wind. The Paintress frowns, maternal instinct flaring as she is drawn at once out of her painful musings.
She knows that cry. That child - a small but quiet baby. Loud only in the mornings when her bottled up emotions could be contained no longer, after a night spent suffering in silence, either too nervous or considerate to weep, and push her exhausted parents to awaken.
In Lumière, Aline meets baby Maelle.
