Of course, the grin faded a little as she shook her head, the sadness beyond her apparent years appearing in her eyes. It just didn't fail to startle him how old those eyes could suddenly look, as though the soul behind them had seen so very much. Beauty in age. It was one of the few things the suckheads got right, but she did it so very much better than they did.

"All right. But you need help remembering, you come to me. I'll do what I can to hook you up with the right people. Until then, you stay Maeve. I kinda like Maeve." He smirked a little again, hoping to draw a smile out of her.
