Summary
Come down slowly, Joe thinks hysterically as he descends the ladder right into the arms of this man who, very unfortunately, smells incredibly good, just a hint of sandalwood on his skin, and feels incredibly firm and comforting against Joe as he makes sure the ladder doesn’t break while Joe’s still on it. Come down slowly, he thinks, and imagines, against his better judgment, coming down slowly next to this man in bed.
If only his opinions on literature weren’t so wrong.
(In which Joe is accidentally seduced into happiness by Schrödinger's hipster.)

But when he stumbles across a statue with mysterious origins in Malta, can Joe handle the paths his search for truth and restorative archaeology will take him down?

Summary
‘So, you’re Nicky, I take it? I’m Joe.’
‘Sorry, I don’t speak English,’ Nicky says. It’s about the only sentence he knows in English, a dubious badge of honour he nevertheless wears with pride. Or rather, he did until about five minutes ago, when Andy said there was someone she wanted him to meet. In English.
--
Modern AU with language barriers: Joe speaks Dutch, English, and Arabic; Nicky speaks Italian, Spanish, and German. Andy didn't know that when she introduced them, but it doesn't really matter.As the poets say, love finds a way.
