For this prompt (https://theoldguardkinkmeme.dreamwidth.org/1468.html?thread=261820#cmt261820)

"So while Nicky is more quiet, he definitely is extremely protective of Joe, I mean we all saw how he lunges for Merrick when Merrick was stabbing Joe right?

So I wanna see a scenario where they're on a mission and the big bad guy is holding Joe hostage and Joe gets hurts

And the second Joe is hurt, Nicky is absolutely feral, trying to get the bad guys away from Joe and get Joe to safety and clings to him for days in end because while they are immortal, Nicky can't stand the thought of Joe being gone for even a second"

Nile doesn't register it. She sees it but she doesn't think twice about it. They get hurt. They die sometimes. It doesn't matter if they're in the middle of the fight or in the hands of the evil prick of the week, right? Except apparently it does.

The guy they're hunting; some drug kingpin with ambitions to expand into human trafficking according to Copley. He managed to catch Joe when they were doing recon and Andy ordered them into the attack with no time to plan. The guy has a knife in his hand and he's been snarling threats while Joe mocked him the whole time. The grunt Joe let out when the guy finally drove the knife into Joe's gut barely registers with Nile over the chaos of the fight.

"Sacre-dieu," Booker breathes in the same instant that Andy says "Oh, fuck."

Nile doesn't have words for the sound Nicky makes.

Then Booker and Andy both tackle her to the ground. Booker's chanting in French. It sounds like he's praying. Andy is cursing in the low focused way that means something's gone horribly wrong. Nile hears a lot of screaming. There's wild gunfire. When she manages to push Booker enough that she can see, she sees blood everywhere. Nicky's a blur of motion amid screaming bodies.

It's a good thing their enemies have their hands full because Nicky is mesmerizing. Nile's fought alongside Nicky for months now and she's never seen him fight like this. Nicky is the shield, the one who finds the way through the firefights and he generally incapacitates his opponent. He's careful, methodical and controlled. He's none of those things.

Nicky tears through the armed goons like a whirlwind. The boss, Nile doesn't even remember his name, screams orders but Nicky just keeps coming. He's been shot, she's pretty sure but he isn't slowing down.

"You should have seen him," Joe had told her once. "His God's wrath made flesh."

She'd laughed. Joe being Joe, she'd thought. He exaggerated. Nicky fights well but he's too controlled, too methodical to be really scary. Nicky's too kind. He has the gentlest soul of any man she's ever met. He hates the violence of what they do as a necessary evil. He hates hurting people and tries to be as quick and clean as he can.

Nile is not enjoying how wrong she was about that.

Nicky leaves his sword sticking out of the last of the guy's goons and their target drops Joe's body. Nicky catches him before he can hit the ground. Nile tries to push up because the target's getting away, goddammit!

"Don't." Andy pushes her down.

Nile gets her head up in time to see Nicky pull the knife from Joe's belly. His focus is on the blood spilling out, free hand pressing down. He doesn't look away from Joe. The knife flies through the air and there's a meaty thunk. Then the heavier thud of a body dropping. Nile is twisting to see who just fell. Andy and Booker are still frozen, all of their attention on Nicky and Joe.

No, Nile realizes, not on Nicky and Joe. Just on Nicky.

He has Joe cradled against his chest, one hand pressing against the still-bleeding wound, the other threaded in Joe's hair. Nicky's expression is...empty. His eyes are closed, lips moving. In the silence, Nile can hear the familiar sing-song of prayer. It's Latin, she thinks. Not Italian. Not Arabic. Nicky's voice is barely a whisper.

Andy pushes herself up slowly, watching Nicky like he's a live grenade. Booker inches backwards. Nile can hear his breathing, shallow, rapid gasps and feel the way his heart is still racing. Andy presses a hand between Nile's shoulder blades. Stay.

Nile doesn't fight it. She's staring at Joe although her eyes keep flicking to Nicky. Shouldn't he be awake by now? Nicky's rocking him back and forth, praying in that barely audible whisper the whole time. Andy gets a knee under herself and pushes up.

Nicky's eyes snap open, head turning towards them and Andy freezes again. There's a second of tension, then Nicky refocuses on Joe and Andy breathes out. Nile catches her eye and Andy shakes her head emphatically.

Booker is praying too, Nile thinks. She couldn't move if she'd wanted to and she really doesn't want to. Even Andy's gone still and Nile can hear her muttering "Wake up for fuck's sake!" under her breath.

Like he'd heard her, Joe sucks in a sudden gulp of air and lurches upright in Nicky's embrace. Booker's relieved sigh flattens her again but Andy doesn't move. Joe blinks and looks around. Nile sees him take in the bodies, pause on the goon with Nicky's sword sticking out of him like a ghoulish flag and he turns to Nicky. He has to shuffle to get a hand up to cup Nicky's cheek.

"This was a bad one, huh?" he's smiling faintly despite the worry in his eyes. "I am here, hayati. I am well."

Nicky doesn't respond immediately, eyes still closed.

"You saved me," Joe insists. "I am here. Open your eyes, my love. See me."

Nicky's eyelids flutter, eyes opening slowly, and he touches the bloody tear over Joe's stomach with a shaking hand. Joe tuts at him, gently turning his face up.

"Look at me, my darling," he repeats. Nicky's eyes flick up almost automatically and he stares at Joe for a full five seconds before he blinks. All the tension runs out of him and he lunges at Joe. Joe manages somehow to keep them both more or less upright, hooking his bound hands over Nicky's neck and holding him close.

"Thank fuck," Andy breathes out in a rush of air and stands easily. She offers Nile a hand and Nile scrambles to stand, still staring at Nicky.

"That was a bad one," Booker says quietly. "I'll go warm up the car."

Andy nods and glances at Nile. "Copley need anything out of this place?"

"Uh, no?" Nile gestures at Joe and Nicky. "Should we...?"

"They'll be fine," Andy says. It comes out half-order, half-question. Neither of them react. She waves Nile towards the door. "Just...give them a few minutes."

Nile waits until they're outside before she turns to Andy. "What the fuck was that?!"

Andy brushes her hair back and tucks her gun back into her harness. "Nicky reacts...badly to Joe getting hurt. They'll be fine in a couple of minutes."

"Badly?" Nile sputters. She peers around Andy and Joe still has Nicky’s face in his hands. Nicky has his hands curled around Joe’s wrists. They’re totally focused on each other and really, it’s probably weird that Nile thinks it’s really sweet. Andy pats her shoulder.

"Nicky goes first," Andy says then smirks. "After me. You’ll learn."

“Yeah,” Nile sighs. “That’s what I’m afraid of.”

This was excellent!!!!!

😭 ooof, oh Nicky, praying over Joe. and the team praying too because Nicky is fucking boss/scary af. my feels!

Yeeess! I love feral Nicky. Fuck them up, baby!

Oh wow. Brb, need to find glue for my feels. Excellent fill!

So intense. I could see everything that’s been happening and feel the tension in the air when joe was not waking up. Even Booker was praying. Great fill.

Oh man I am so here for this. Feral!Nicky is my fave, it would be so glorious to see
