Inspired by my friend calling luca "beautiful italian angel" from his recent zoom interview (martin eden premiere in japan)
Nicky is Joe's guardian angel, who he's been watching over all Joe's life, providing little miracles here and there to help Joe out. One day Joe got into a life-threatening accident and essentially 'dies'. Nicky is waiting to guide him to the afterlife in tears, because he's grown so fond of the young man and his life was ended so soon. Joe sees Nicky for a brief moment, (who is he?), before advancement in modern medicine drags him back to life
When he wakes up, the only thing Joe has in mind is the mysterious and beautiful man he saw- was it a hallucination? Only for him to realize the man is sitting next to him, holding his hand. "It's you!" "......................." and then Nicky is devastated by the absolutely beautiful and glowing smile Joe graces him. He's only seen it from afar and never directed to him...and now he is fucked.
What happens afterwards is up to filler!
+ Nicky is somewhat a clumsy angel or an angel that isn't best at his job? Like he knows he shouldn't get emotionally attach to the person he's guarding, but he can't help it. So yes gimme that insecurity and/or struggles with coming to terms with his feelings for Joe ++ Joe's friends (TOG members?) think he's gotten some head injury with how much he raves poems after poems about this Nicky figure that they have never seen before...
