Summary
Booker meets Nile while she is still mortal. It changes things.
Alternately:
[“Dude, you gotta help me out here,” she said again, “are you…en vie?”
The question made him laugh, which was a terrible idea. He breathed through the sudden roil of nausea and finally looked at the very determined Good Samaritan who had resolved not to leave him in peace.
“I am not dead,” Booker informed her gravely, “not yet.”]

Summary
Nile was two months old when her soulmate died.
Her parents woke up to her screams and found their baby—their poor sweet baby—covered in purple marks. Hours later, once everyone had calmed down and they had time to breathe, her father would identify them as gunshots.
It was not a good day for the Freeman family.
Nile was two months, two weeks, and two days old when her soulmate broke their arm. That came as a surprise to everyone. To Nile, who was not sure where to pain came from and tried to make sure everyone knew she was in significant amounts of it. To her mother, who was still depressed about her baby not having a soulmate anymore. And to the poor cashier, who had not signed up for the drama.

Summary
At the safe house in Goussainville, he could barely disguise his interest. There was Andy and Quỳnh, after all, and Joe and Nicky. Was she supposed to be his, just 200 years late?
Then, it all went to hell. Nile hurled herself from a window. Booker offered her his hand. She accepted. Everything changed. Nobody realized.
---
Booker and Nile are generally smart and usually rational immortal beings. They make decisions all the time. So why do Nile's visits always seem to bring warmth and sunshine to Paris? And why does this thing between them feel like destiny?
Or, a Hades and Persephone fusion in which Booker and Nile find family, find each other, and find their fate.

Summary
Nile checked her gun. "How long does it take to get used to all the blood and guts?"
Booker laughed. "You ever seen Joe or Nicky when the other one's leaking badly?"
"So, forever."
"I can only say that I'm not used to it yet." He looked down at himself. "But if it's mine, it's not as bad."
"Is that why you jumped on the grenade?"
"I don't know. I saw it, I went for it. If I weren't immortal I would be dead many times over. I'm not a fancy fighter." He took a peek and got grazed on the side of his head. "Ow. Fuck. How are you handling the transition?"
"It's weird," she said truthfully. "Everyone's a million years older than me."
"Yeah," he said with a horribly insincere grin as blood trickled down the side of his face. "And they'll never really get it. Quynh was a hundred by the time Andy found her. Joe and Nicky died together. And then there's us."
Everyone else is very old and paired off, so Nile decides her cohort needs to unionize. Any good union comes with benefits, even it takes you both ten years to be ready for all of them.
