So, I did a thing. I’ve watched The Old Guard now 3 times in less than a week, and am head over heels with Joe and his Nicolo. So, I did a thing. It’s my take on their origin story. 

As a disclaimer, I have not read the comics, so this is solely based on their relationship as it is portrayed in the movie. 

Also, this will most likely be a slow write since I’m supposed to be writing a Master’s thesis and just started classes to work towards a second Master’s… tell me I’m nuts…

Interim 1 has been posted.  

Interim chapters are shorter than the main chapters, and serve as a little time jump to the “present” (i.e. a short time after the ending of the movie). They are mainly intended to break up the story a little bit, and buy me some time to write
