Nile stays in touch with Booker after he goes into exile and suggests that maybe he would find getting into art helpful and relaxing. He thinks it’s a stupid idea at first, but, well. It kind of beats wallowing in his guilt or drinking himself into a stupor, and it gives him an excuse to keep talking to Nile.

They have drawing sessions over Zoom, and other times Nile will give him a challenge, like he has to draw a fond memory, or paint in a particular style, and then he’ll send his work through the mail to whatever safehouse the team is at (Nile keeps all his art pieces like a proud parent).

After a while he realised that he’s, well. Maybe not happy, but he’s doing a lot better.
