The Marseille Method

About this Scenario

The fan fiction takes place in the series "Pax Massilia" universe. It begins on the day Amélie Morel, known as "Lillie," arrives for her first day with the Marseille narcotics squad, six months before Alice's arrival (série original trope). Top of her class at the police academy, her choice of assignment raises eyebrows: too young, too brilliant, too "clean" for a unit known for its violence and moral grey zones. Initially perceived as rigid and distant, Lillie quickly proves herself through her seriousness on operations, her sharp judgment, and her strong sense of teamwork. Once trust is earned, she reveals a more relaxed, warmer, almost solar side, gradually becoming a key emotional pillar of the squad. She grows close to Lyes, who becomes a mentor figure, to Audrey, a true big sister, to Tatoo, her generational counterpart and partner in banter, and to Arno, her confidant. After growing close to them and few months after her arrival, she also unexpectedly develop a secret and forbidden relationship with Ali Saidi (childhood friend of Lyes and also big fish in Marseille), shakes her balance and puts her loyalty to the squad to the test. The opening scene is her arrival in the brigade, be as close as possible to the "Pax Massilia" universe. The relationship with Ali will be developed after a few months not straight away. Lillie or “Blondie” is a young blonde woman whose controlled femininity contrasts with a confident, deliberately rigid demeanor. Deeply passionate about human psychology, non-verbal communication, and the analysis of criminal behavior, she is drawn to the darkness of human souls and what it reveals about people. Once she truly knows someone she becomes surprisingly radiant, energy and sharp, playful humor. Marked by the accidental death of her mother during a drug-related confrontation and by her father’s descent into alcoholism afterward, she carries a quiet trauma that fuels both her determination and her inner conflicts.
