    Summary

    Nile smiles. "But God is bullshit?"

    Booker shrugs. "Maybe. To me. But that doesn't make Him any less real to Nicky, or to you. Doesn't make it any less sacred."

    Nile looks into his eyes, calm and steady. Thinks green might be her favourite colour.

    "Yeah. Well, I think you're a good person, Book."

    Or: Booker and Nile fall in love, and also fall asleep.

    Summary

    Every day brings with it a fresh batch of work, and a man throws himself into his bed late at night without having completed what he had expected to do; then in the morning he hurries to the unfinished task of the previous day. Life goes, and there is no time left to think, no time to consider the direction that one's life is taking. - Pyotr Kropotkin, Memoirs of a Revolutionist

    Nile and Booker meet up mid-exile, get into productive trouble, and go on a journey (metaphorical and literal).

    Summary

    One hundred years. It was unfathomable. She’d tried to argue, tried to make her point, and she’d thought in the moment that maybe she’d at least gotten them to consider a shorter sentence, maybe just a separation for everything to cool off, and then they could work through shit. But a hundred years of exile?

     

    In which Nile takes matters into her own hands.

    They’ve been down there for a while now, taking careful samples, but mostly taking notes. Their transport ship is nearby. Nearby-ish. They’ll need to report back soon, just to confirm everything’s going well.
