Summary
Nile always comes with many questions. Booker, unfortunately, doesn’t have the answers.
But he knows way too well the desire to dig deeper and deeper into your pain. He knows the feeling when the thing that you crave the most is also the thing that will eventually kill you.
Booker doesn’t have the answers, he doesn’t have the words to fill the void left in Nile’s heart when she had to leave her family behind for a life she didn’t ask for. But Nile didn’t choose Booker for his words. She chose him for his silence.Nile is still adjusting to immortality. She has doubts. She has questions.
Booker cannot give her any answer. But he can listen. -

Neither he nor Nicky are particularly religious, but that morning Joe finds himself closing his eyes and silently praying to a nameless God.
Please, please, let this be the day. Let it be our new beginning.~~~
Joe and Nicky are ready to add a new member to their family.

Summary
Quynh still hasn’t cried, despite everything. Not that Andy has seen, anyway. The tension of it acts as a barricade. A tightly strung arrow. It quivers. It chills. Sometimes Andy sees her there. Standing. Staring off into some middle distance with her hand wrapped loosely around her own throat. Is she feeling the pulse there as it thrums steady and constant beneath her fingers. The reassuring rush of blood-contained in her veins, the flow of oxygen smoothly through her system. As it should be. As it should have been. Is she just not sure of it yet? That breath will come in and out of her lungs in easy, regular intervals. That her chest will fill and empty without force. Without that cold, aching agony.
Just how many times had she drowned?
An exploration of breath and the Ship of Theseus.
Can easily be read as a stand alone.Series

Summary
Closing his eyes, Niccolò leans his head back against the sofa and wonders how today went to shit so fast. They were supposed to have a nice day together. Celebrate their first anniversary with Sébastien by having him finally meet Andy and Quynh in person—Yusuf’s parents usually aren’t free this time of the year, but they’re coming to visit during Sébastien’s Christmas break. There was going to be Niccolò’s best risotto and an apple cake, and it was going to be great. Instead, now, they have this.
Or: the Al-Kaysani-Genovesi-Le Livre household's very harrowing day.

Summary
"Perhaps most tragic of all is the absence of Andy Burgess outside of Scranton history. We know that she was brave and determined based on her actions during the Scranton Flood. We know that she loved and was loved in return, that her final thoughts on the day of her death were about Nile. But who she was outside of that has been lost to the pages of history. Though many people have shown up over the years claiming to be her family, there has been no actual proven familial link to this day. In many ways, Andy Burgess exists because of Nile's letters, her words doing more to immortalize the Hero of Scranton's human existence than any biographical text to date...And perhaps, at the end of the day, this was the greatest demonstration of Nile's love for Andy Burgess: to keep her alive long after she was gone."
