Summary
“We can’t let it happen to her.” Nicky says, like Joe could have forgotten. “You know I’ll be OK.”
“I don’t, I don’t know that,” Joe retorts passionately. The tears have been close for a while, now they overflow. “Nicky. You won’t.”
Nicky shuts his eyes, lets his head fall back against the wall behind him. “In time,” he says softly. “I will be in time. Stop fighting me. Please.”

Summary
“Nicolo would never risk the fates of children over his own.”
“And look where that got him!” Andy roars, her throat burning with a desperate rage that has nothing to do with the pills, and right there, in that precise moment, she watches, devastated, as the words carve ruin into Joe’s grief-stricken face.
She hears the tiny intake of Booker’s breath, sees the even tinier lift of his shoulders towards his ears.

Summary
AU with what would happen in Nicky had been stuck in the Iron coffin and come out- and how the family *slowly* heals.
--
Booker had spent 250 where he had been haunted by dreams of the salt, insanity, and a dark and cold fury. He spent 250 years haunted by the spectre of Nicolo.
Then three months into his banishment after Merrick, on a random Sunday night and drunk in Paris, he didn’t dream of sea or salt. Instead, He dreamt that he knew what it was like to breathe and not have his lungs betray him as his family had done.
He dreamt of Nicolo.
Nicolo was free.
