The Old Guard - Nile, Nicky/Joe

“It’s hardly a quest for the Holy Grail, I was just asking-” Nile paused. “Oh hey, what’s up with that thing? Anyone ever find it?”
“The Grail?” Nicky exchanged a look with Joe and chuckled. “It’s complicated. Someone may have planted a fake at some point.”
This was apparently hilarious. Nile waited until they’d finished laughing, then cleared her throat. “If I have to wait centuries to get in on these in-jokes, I’m gonna get real pissy. Anyway, I wanted to ask when your birthdays are. I’m making a list.”
She was met with the blankest stares she’d ever seen.
