Was curious how far Ithaca was from troy today while listening to epic the musical and rereading the illiad and I found this map
I think odysseus would have been better just to walkđ
This is so true.
He doesn't want to hurt people and I feel like the only time he is mean to someone is when he knows them really well and they won't take it seriously
He wouldn't be an absolute jersey to people but he also wouldn't be all cute and sensitive
I think that Will helped soften him, but he's only let's Will see that Soft Kind side of him
i know we all hate the âuwu sensitive gay boyâ stereotype nico di angelo is thrust into. and believe me when i say i have a battle to fight with it. but what about the one where heâs overly mean. no he would not tell two campers to fuck off cause they looked at him. no he would not disrespect random leaders/people for no reason. no he would not be blatantly rude to everybody who approaches him. no he would not be an asshole. is he standoffish, awkward, a little creepy, and had a period in time he believed everyone hated him? yes! this does not mean heâs a smartass or enjoys hurting others. itâs perceiving him in a way that would probably make him nauseous. that boy is very polite, especially towards women, and the safety of others is dare i say one of his main priorities. he knows what itâs like to feel hated and would never inflict that upon someone else. i KNOW he holds the door open for people, helps old ladies cross the road, smiles at babies, and invites younger campers to sit with him if they feel out of place. he is an angel. ted talk concluded
âcan I be honest with you?â Austin scoffs before he said; âWilliam Andrew Solace, if you say you miss your boyfriend for the 37th time today, Iâll dismiss myself and leave you alone in this shift.â
Will acted surprised with all dramatic hand-on-chest. âyou counted? damn. but seriously itâs beenââ
â3 days, Will. â
â3 days! how wounded i am being left? canât you see here Iâm suffering with all these loving feeling all alone? Austin! please!â Austin rolled his eyes as he open the storage box, lining bandages, gauzes, adhesives, elastics, and triangular in their respective lines. âoh please, what is Nico doing anyway?â Will shrugged as he rolled a tray of scalpels into sterilizer.
âhis father called him. saying he needs Nico for the underworld things. complicated applications, judge control and all that stuff. he said he needs to check up on Menoetesâ work too, for the nectar and ambrosia collecting. you know, being the prince of the underworld. he promised not going on Tartarus though. he said to check on Asphodel and Elysium too.â Austin nods on that.
âI just- I just-? you know Iâm-â Will sat down before Austin walks to him. âyouâre worrying his safety. Will, you do know he survived two wars with and without us. he went to tartarus twice, Will. heâll be okay. heâll be fine.â Will sighed. âhe only pack his stygian iron sword and the clothes he wear!â Austin shrugged. âpretty sure he has his own room is his dadâs palace? era, ero?-â âErebos. youâre right. but what if he gets hurt? what if-â graaughhr
âSweet Apollo! you scarâd me!â
âWill, wha- is this a zombie?!â
Will gives Austinâs weirded out look the same look. âI donât know? what are you doing here, Mr. Zombie?â graughrhs. said the undead, while holding out a surprisingly clean letterâsealed with black stamp, and a black box filled with two family packs of golden Oreos , enough ambrosia squares and canteens full with nectar. the zombieâsomehow shylyâalso held out a flower bouquet of night-blooming cereus (which is the flower persephone offer to him), hyacinthus and asphodels.
the Mr. Zombie then take a few space from both Will Solace and Austin Lake and stood there as Will processing of what just happened. âdude, I think itâs from Nico.â Austin gets a hold of the box and bouquet onto the table as he watch his brother holding onto the letter as if it was an ancient victorian fragile artifact. âwhoa, do I need to get Cecil and Lou Ellen?â ânah, stay with me, Austin. catch me if I pass out.â
âand fill the shift alone? damn man.â but he agreed anyway as Will undo the stamp after reading the swift writing on the envelope.
to : Will Solace, My significant annoyance.
Dear Will,
I hope you donât trouble yourself any harm.
Iâm writing to you from Menoetesâ farm here. Iâm fine and my journey went incredibly well, I might finish the tasks before next week comes. how are you, Night Light? Menoetes and Geryon here say hi. the troglodytes also give hail to Will Solace the Texan Son of Apollo.
Do you miss me? do you like the bouquet? Persephone insists on sending the bouquet, talking about âdarknessâ and all. next meeting, I need you to tell me your conversation with her, seriously. I asked John to buy golden Oreos and put it with ambrosia and nectar. is it done? those are for you and infirmary needs. do you need me to get you anything for yourself? share the oreos with Kayla and Austin, you greedy dork.
this sound incredibly sappy, I canât believe you turned me this way, Solace. either way, I miss you. ugh how do you cross words without making the ink spill? you can send me anything in return through JohnâI mean if you want to, Iâm not forcing you or anything. you know that, donât you?
Iâll soon be back, donât miss me too much, Carebear. I love you.
Love, Nico Di Angelo
âthatâs real sappy. just sayingâwait, how come you are so red? itâs been a year and a half and youâre still flustered over him? gods, you guys are so gayâ Austin fake gag while Will softly slap his shoulders âoh shut up, you are gay too, dumb ass. now let me write my return letter in peaceâ âoh please, like a pigeon war love letter? spare me your emotional train-wreck please.â Austin waves as he walk to the beds, to fix up the bed? he donât know, all he know is he want to avoid Will Solaceâs flustered manner as good as possible.
ââââââââââââ
Months, years laterâŚ
âwhatâs with the pout, Will? itâs only been 5 days since Nicoâs next mission! Iâm sure heâll be fine, doing his prince duty and allatâ Lou Ellen shrugs as she punch Willâs upper arms jokingly, while Will is still fidgeting on top of the picnic mat near the lake.
âitâs been 5 days, Lou! without any messages!â Lou Ellen rolled his eyes. âoh come on, heâs probably too busy. heâll send those âelite-victorian, love-letter-pigeon-like zombie sooner or later.â
Cecil pops his stolen lolly. âI donât know, Will. how are you so calm about a zombie being your transpor of sending messages? arenât you scared?â Will shrugs. âat first, it does. but now? Iâm waiting for his presence! to know what my boyfriendâs doing!â
Lou Ellen gives Cecil a look. âheâs down bad, he doesnât care about the transport and all this undead thingsâ Cecil laughs. âI donât know, Lou. he fell head over heels, what do you expect him to not like about Nico Di Angelo?â

OK so A long time ago I read these two solangelo fanfics that were both really good bt lso really sad and now I can't fins them
The first one was them getting in a fight and I think it was Will w ent to sleep on the couch and nico was really upset with that I think it was a happy ending
The second one was A smutty one. When they were doing it will went too far and nico told him to stop and will didn't and after that he felt really bad and called his mom to talk about it and they made up in the end.
If anyone knows what these two fanfics are.pls message me I would love to reread them again.
Heâs going to be *on screen*!!
Happy season three renewal, everybody đ
Maybe we should all draw this weird little gremlin to celebrate đ
Please guys I need this
let will solace go batshit with his plague powers in court of the dead bc "no one touches my boyfriend!" 2k25
random riordanverse teeth headcanons for funsies:
actually starting out with not a hc - Percy's teeth aren't straight! He mentions in Sea of Monsters it as one of his insecurities ("[...] or the fact that my two front teeth werenât perfectly even [...]") I just think that's fun and cute for him
Nico, Hazel, and Percy can all regenerate their teeth. Nico and Hazel for Hades/Pluto kid reasons and Percy for shark reasons. Percy's just regrow normally but Nico and Hazel have to willfully use their powers to grow it back. They can grow other people's teeth back too if they want to though.
Nico has fangs. Technically not "real" fangs but his canine teeth are just unusually sharp to the point where they look like little fangs. Hazel and Bianca perhaps can also have fangs as a treat :3 Hades kids with fangs...
Jason has fake teeth! Like three or so. Unfortunately humans are not built for biting random stuff super hard all the time and he sacrificed a couple teeth because of it.
(If he feels like it he can ask Nico or Hazel to grow his teeth back for him. It probably doesn't last long. Maybe one day he can get fancy fake teeth.)
Lacy has braces. Piper perhaps also had braces when she was younger and probably hated them.
Walt getting fangs when Anubis is present could be very fun.
Alex with fangs is also fun <3
Niche one but i like to theme both Lacy and Ida around rabbits, so both of them having prominent front teeth would be very cute.
Demeter kids with snake fangs! Snakes are sacred to Demeter!
Snakes are also sacred to Apollo, as are wolves/dogs. Dogs are also sacred to Hecate. Many options for funky teeth.
Will was born without wisdom teeth, cause that's a thing that can happen. He's just never gonna grow 'em and ergo never need them removed.
okay thats all i've got ÂŻ\_(ă)_/ÂŻ
