Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

Nile: "Why is it you all are speaking English as the main language? I mean, you speak so many languages, so why English? Who decided that?"

Andy: "Me, after the mess in Bucharest back in 1956."

Nile: "What happened?"

Booker: "It's classified intel!"

 

Joe looked up from the book and frowns.

 

Joe: "Since when is getting yourself shot in the ass classified intel?"

Booker: "Shut up, Joe."

Joe: "The only reason why you got shot in the ass in the first was that you started a brawl in the middle of the street with the target's bodyguard, who punched you after he saw your gun that was meant to be concealed."

Nicky: "Joe is right, and I did shout that you should get out of the way twice, so you were warned that I was about to shoot."

Booker: "In a language the world has forgotten everything about."

Nicky: "Not my fault, so stop whining about it because the bullet barely grazed your ass."

Booker: "Barely grazed my ass? It left a gaping hole because you were shooting with a Kalashnikov."

 

When Nicky is making signs to get up from the sofa, Andy looks at Joe.

 

Andy: "Joe, it's about now that you should do as you did back then unless you want an angry French man to shoot after your boyfriend again."

Joe: "Trust me I will."

 

Joe stands up, and before Nicky is up from the sofa, Joe grabs Nicky's hand and pulls him out of the living room under heavy protesting.

 

Nicky: "I really don't know why he is still whining about it after all this time."

Joe: "Maybe it's because he is French. So, what do you say we go somewhere else until he stops whining? Let's go to Berlin and see the cherry blossoms ."
