Thinking of a Joe-is-the-new-immortal au where Andy and Nicky - who’ve known each other for like 800 years at this point, and it was just the pair of them after Quynh and before Booker-and-Nile - have a no personal boundaries regarding space or nudity or history with each other because they’ve literally known each other for nearly a thousand years and loved each other so long (thinking of the fond hug in Marrakesh)(Platonic with a capital P) that the realms of normality have been lost over time regarding the other
AND ITS DRIVING JOE INSANE
Like I image this Joe, modern Joe, to be a hopeless romantic, emphasis on the hopeless, used to pining rather than loving because the modern world is so fast and busy and people rarely have the time to slow down, so he sees Nicky and Andy asleep on the sofa drooling on each other like a pair of cats and resigns himself to pining, like , oh of course this hot kind man is taken, better pine from afar, and he’s happy to do so like an idiot instead filling sketchbook after sketchbook with portraits and idle romantic doodles
And Nile and Booker are no help because they’ve got so used to the Nicky and Andy shenanigans that to them it’s just Tuesday. Andy walks out the bathroom completely nude to ask Nicky if her tattoo has faded yet? Normal Wednesday behaviour. Nicky wakes up Andy from a cat nap - waking a bear would be safer - with a spoon to her mouth asking if the soup tastes like the one they had in Alexandria ‘28*, yet? Must be Thursday. Andy prods at Nicky’s mole when he’s frowning to get him to smile like it’s a press-release button? Friday. (Wouldn’t your sister-like-figure do the same?) Nicky content to being used as a blanket because Andy remembers Russia ‘14 and she’s not regrowing her toes again. A specific Saturday in 1814 that Booker, new to immortality at the time, tries not to remember either.
*1228, Nicky still can’t perfect the recipe after all this time and it’s driving him nuts
Andy’s twigged what’s going on because she knows Nicky like the back of her own hand, but she’s also not going to change anything because this is the dynamic - Nicky’s been her brother her family her constant her rock after Quynh for so long now, just like she’s been to him,that Joe needs to get used to that, she’s not ready to lose someone else, she also doesn’t want Nicky’s heart to get broken because she’s been around for that with mortals over the years and it’s always messy.
And Nicky is so in love at the point, with this passionate artist who sees all this beauty in the world, but Joe keeps writing off what he’s doing with all the strength - stupidity- of a millennial raised around toxic masculinity and no-homo, and done his best to reject them but he’s now faced with a 900 year old man, cut him some slack, throwing up roadblocks to his own romantic happiness because he’s not expecting anything at all, like Nicky was raised in a different time, men acted differently towards each other then, they were more affectionate, I’m sure it doesn’t mean what it sounds like ~ I love you - wait what?

You’re a very pathetic man, Booker.  You and Nicky always had each other, right? All we had was our grief.  Well, now you have even more

Below him is Earth, floating in an ocean of stars. The sun is just rising, lending it a kind of halo, which is a view he thinks he’s never gotten tired of. His favourite, though, is his view of the planet at night, when it’s lit by a web of man-made stars, stretching across countries and along coastlines, its cities glowing like tiny suns. Aside from the films and books he’s seen and read, sent to him every week or so, and the transmissions, it’s his only real indication that he isn’t the only person in the universe. Doesn’t alleviate the loneliness entirely, but it makes him feel just a little less isolated.
- from @youssefguedira's amazing amazing fic planet earth is blue (and there's nothing I can do) which is just so very perfect and I already love so much <3 and for @theartguard's bi-monthly theme Fic-Inspired!

‘joe’s the romantic’ nicolò di genova knew nile for the grand total of ten minutes before going all ‘love of my life’ ‘meant to find each other’. the romantic is both of them because they are both absolute simps
