Summary
"I'm certain this is not what you wanted from a marriage any more than I did."
For a second, Joe is on the receiving end of the most intense stare he's ever seen. He almost dares to hope for an argument, something unexpected, then his husband blinks, and he's back to being that blank-faced stranger Joe first met earlier that day. "On the contrary. An advantageous match is all a prince should ever want."
It was too much to hope that Nicolò might possess wit or charm that he felt free to express behind closed doors. Joe tries to hide a sigh. On the bright side, he thinks, at least it's forever.

Summary
The weight of the man on top of Nicolò had pressed him further into the unrelenting ground, dirt and stone dug into his back as he cried out in pain. His wounds had already begun the process of trying to stitch themselves back together, but the saif still in his stomach hindered the ability from completion. The warmth of his body slowly seeped out from the cut flesh, and as the blood pooled beneath his tunic, his hands trembled against the patterned fabric above him.
The soldier who struck him with the fatal blow, stared down at him with dark, glistening eyes and let out a mournful sound, “Found you."
(Or. A slight canon divergence detour where I wondered, "What if they were already immortal when they met?")

Summary
The team is woken by a dream of a new immortal. He’s easy enough to track down - Nicolò di Genova, Italian, age 30 - but… he’s not exactly what they were expecting.
“Copley,” Andy began, her voice surprisingly cool and collected. “Tell us what we’re looking at here.”
“This is precisely why I wanted to do my due diligence,” Copley explained. “From what you’ve all told me about your pasts, I was expecting a soldier or something along those lines. But you’re looking at Father di Genova.”
“He’s… a priest,” Joe said slowly, wide-eyed and disbelieving.
