I've seen like 4 posts just today coming up with scenarios as to how Booker got his nickname and i just.
Is it not common knowledge??? His name is Book. Sébastien Le Livre. Sébastien The Book. Technically Sébastien means revered so if we're being pedantic his name is essentially The Good Book like the bible or whatsit but yeah. Le Livre is French for The Book.

WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT
If my math is right !!!! (It may be wrong) but if it’s right then coz booker was born in ‘70 and he died (the first time) in ‘12 then he died at 42 yrs right? Right??? And remember him talking to Nile in the cave about his #Son Issues??
Booker and his son both died when they were 42
Like is booker my least fav of the family? Yes but I still love him and his sadboi life okay and this symmetry is just getting to me but it’s currently 1 am so
Does it make a big difference in his story no but it’s just a sad addition :,(((((

For Reverse Big Bang @theoldguardevents, partnered with Wind_Ryder’s A Tragedy in Three Parts -- a Booker angst fic!!!!! 👀
Summary:
Sebastien le Livre meets Amelie de la Cour when he's sixteen years old. He's determined he's going to marry her one day. They'll have a lovely home, and wonderful children, and he'll be everything that his own father wasn't.
But then the war comes. When he's sent out to fight, he doesn't come back the same.

My final TOG art set for the TOG BB!! ✨️
Thank you to @oldguardbigbang for organizing and allowing me to work with three wonderful writers, including @sphinx81 whose summary of a historical AU for Booker x Nile made my heart soar and my imagination go wild with the possibilities, way back in spring which feels like a million years ago lol.
It was so fun to exchange some aesthetics and pins and narrow down the looks - I was inspired by the foldable wooden displays of icons and mummy portraits from ancient times - so it's sort of conveying each of them from both the before and after (but I'll let you read the fic so as not to spoil anything), and then the middle being the revealed portion when both "flaps" are opened.
If you'd like to read the fic, you can do so here on AO3, and it's perfectly titled: "If I Cannot Move Heaven, I Will Raise Hell." 😎

The "faster than the elevator", the "there's always a first time", the Loud Wink™ at the dinner table, the grin in the helicopter, the way he laughed at himself when he said "we killed each other", the "there's your balance, asshole"... you can tell that Joe thinks that he's the funniest motherfucker on Earth. And he is right
