Summary
This work is based on the AU created by Highsmith (quimtessence) where Joe and Nicky never stop trying to kill each other but are banging boots on the side. I love, love, love this idea but the incurable romantic in me just had to bring these idiots together!

Summary
“He is fated to die today, the fourteenth of April in 2019.” Andromache tilted her head as she studied Yusuf’s body. “That is immutable. He has already died. But we could give him another chance at the day.”
“Restart it?” Nile leaned forward eagerly. “We could warn him, or stop-”
“No. He has to thwart death on his own terms, and it will hunt him throughout this process. He will repeat this day, with memory of those before it, and if at the end of seven days, he survives to April fifteenth with his soulmate at his side, he can live. If he dies on the seventh day, then that is his final death and time will progress from there. Is that understood?”Joe is an art restoration technician who has been falling in love with Nicky, a baker near him, for the last two months. He's sure they're soulmates and is confident in their future together.
The only catch is his death. At least he's got a spirit guide on his side to avoid it.Bookmarked by 99bottlesofbeer

Summary
Nicolò di Genova was killed on one of the endless mornings of The Crusades, struck down by a scimitar. He woke again later that evening.
Yusuf al-Kaysani bled out hours later from wounds left by a sword. He woke again that next morning.
A person often meets his destiny on the road he chose to avoid it.
Alternatively, Nicky and Joe's second meeting was over 900 years too late. And neither one knows the other is immortal, or that they've already met.

Summary
The hero and the thief. More comic tropes, more sword fighting, and a whole lot more falling in love.
This is the sequel to fight 'til the day that i die, so you might want to read that first.
