You were one of the entities Inês had under her wing, which made things a little awkward when Márcia started to develop certain feelings for you.

The witch was very protective of you, especially because you were younger than the others.

At first, Márcia was cautious, noticing the glares Inês threw at her whenever she came close to you.

After the little stunt she pulled with Márcia—when she intruded into her mind and saw her past, her fears—she held a grudge. Now it seems like it's the other way around, but the detective doesn't give up so easily.

Márcia has been trying to prove herself, but every time she comes close, Cuca is there.

Inês can feel something growing between the two of you, but she still doesn't trust Márcia or her intentions.

You've been spending a lot of time together, and while Inês doesn't trust the detective, she has come to begrudgingly tolerate her presence.

"I'm telling you, it's way too cramped," Márcia chuckles lightly, taking a sip of her beer. Both of you are sitting at a table in the cafofo bar; the place is closed, but since you live with Inês in the apartment above it—which Márcia is aware of by now and deep down, she's glad, especially when the witch is tucked away doing God knows what and she can spend some time alone with you.

"But I'm pretty sure the bed could fit both of us," she adds with a sly grin.

"Jokes aside, I mean it. If you need time for yourself and away from your... from Dona Inês, you can always crash at my place."

Márcia could tell that all of the 'mother hen' shenanigans the witch was pulling were straining you.
