#WordWeavers 2026.01.21 — If in the middle of the book your MC discovered a foundling, what would they do with it?
Bolt works for the mob. A primary motivator for how she deals with the civilians trying to enter her life is not letting them get hurt by her employers. Discovering a child needing care, but whom has no parents she can find, would send her into a tail spin (figuratively only, since she's a day angel that can fly). Becoming attached would be catastrophic for her and the kid. There are few things she would go to the constabulary to deal with, but she'd risk the coppers for the sake of a child. No way is she keeping it; no way would she walk away, leaving it on the pavement either.
