Joe gives Nicky a tight nod and shoulders the door in, breaking the rusty lock easily. He holds his gun in one hand and his flashlight in the other, quickly directing it around the small, dingy room. There is a mattress there and a few plastic bags full of trash, but no-one. Joe lowers his gun, sighing heavily through his nose.

They've been in Morocco a week, and they can't seem to find Quynh. To his credit, Booker was able to find the place he keeps seeing in dreams pretty accurately, and once Joe and Nicky got there, a few people remembered seeing an Asian woman wander on the beach, looking lost and confused. But since then, nothing.

They've been asking beggars all over the city, interrogating merchants at their market stalls, and even hacked into the local police files to see if they had any information. Nothing. It's like Quynh came out of the water and went up in smoke. Joe turns back to face Nicky and he shakes his head, his shoulders slumping a little.

Joe closes the door and locks it, hesitating for a second before he grabs a chair and jams it under the door handle. There. No-one is getting in for a while and it's just Nicolo and him, as it should be.

He leans against the wall, his shoulders slumping a little in exhaustion, and watches Nicky. Nicky, who still has blood on his face and unidentified goop in his hair. Nicky, whose shirt is torn by multiple bullet holes and whose eyes are still too wide, too sharp. Nicky, who was tortured for hours by a mad scientist after their own brother sold them out to a pharmaceutical company.

Joe can feel his anger ignite in the pit of his stomach again, rising up from his chest to his head like a searing wave, making his eyebrows furrow and his eyes go dark and flat. It's lucky for Booker that Andy forcibly separated them and took him in. Joe is not a man who delights in violence, but he thinks he would make an exception just this once.

Pushing away from the wall he steps closer, reaching out to rub at a spot of dried blood on Nicky's jaw. It doesn't budge. He stares at it helplessly, looking up to meet Nicky's eyes. "Shower?" he offers, quietly.

IN CHARACTER

PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Joe is very affectionate with the people he likes, so yes.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: unlikely unless you attack him first. He can take a lot and doesn't hold back if anyone he cares for is in danger, though. 
RELATIONSHIPS: with Nicky, forever. Loves all members of the Guard very deeply.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: fuck around and find out harm the people he loves and suffer the consequences.


OUT OF CHARACTER

BRACKETS/ PROSE: I prefer prose, but I can do brackets!
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS AND TRIGGERS:
I'd rather avoid extreme gore (canon-typical violence is fine) and sexual violence. Feel free to pm me to ask if you're unsure.
SHIPPING:
I'm down to ship Joe with any member of the Guard, but unless it's an AU, Nicky is his soulmate, always. 
BACKTAGGING: always and forever.

THREADHOPPING: sure!
FOURTHWALLING: I'd rather not, unless we've discussed it before.
