[There's a moment where she just sort of blinks at the man.]

[While Maria can't say she knows Alucard that well, she certainly knows enough not to expect him to be the sort who would pretend not to know someone. He was cold, yes, but he was polite about it if nothing else.
She now presses the hand formerly against her chest to her cheek and studies him like some sort of specimen. His expression is as serious as ever though she thinks in some ways he doesn't look quite as cool and collected, particularly not tilting his head like a curious dog.
Perhaps he had gone to sleep and forgotten everything? That wouldn't make sense since he did recall the Belmont family when she had asked him and she was certain he has either been asleep before that. Maybe? Actually that was just a guess, she didn't know what had occurred to him before meeting him in that castle after all.
Now she tilts her own hand in kind, hand still against her cheek. The examining expression mulls into something softer and a touch worried.]
I assume you don't recall Richter either? Or Shaft?
