Summary
"Nicky is making himself a coffee, bleary-eyed from a fitful sleep, and trying to recall if Joe is drinking it this decade, and if he is then does he take it with sugar?, and he’s also thinking about The Odyssey, which is sitting in amongst a pile of books in the next room.
He’s thinking about a question written in the margins, scrawled in Booker’s handwriting: how long does it take for a man to return from war? Does he ever return, can he ever return, what does it mean to return home, when home is not home and he is no longer the same man?"
After Merrick, Nicky's right shoulder starts hurting, and it doesn't stop.

Bookmark Notes:
Ah, poetry out of context piled into Joe/Nicky fic, plus chronic arm pain. Absolutely spectacular.
