#booker is a bastard through and through with kind vibes that comes out for the right occasion they balance each other out

Hold on, from that last post what if Nicky and Booker started bonding with a bar brawl they got involved in? And that's when they had their first bet together? Because Nicky said something along the lines of "Bet I can trip that guy before you" and it was On between from now on, no take back.

It's still well early in their relationship, Booker has been with them for a couple of years max and things are still a bit tensed and unsure between them, they don’t know how to act around each other yet and what the other wants and is like, after a mission they both go to a bar to wait for Andy and Joe still busy somewhere else. They sit and drink and wait for them and for whatever reason, some guy start bothering someone and it gets out of hand and the entire bar ends up fighting. And because they’re tired and a bit drunk they both get involve and that’s when Booker realizes Nicky isn’t uptight and patronizing like he thought he was but he too can get his hands dirty and he can be a sneaky bastard like Booker if he wants to. And that’s when Nicky realizes Booker has a team spirit and is willing to take sides and fight for others and more importantly defends the people he cares for. Which apparently now includes Nicky too he realizes when Booker takes a blow that would have got Nicky if not for him.
