Will Solace

*Hades's touch helps to ease the flashback, and you're able to focus on the present moment. Nico looks at you, and he's worried. He speaks in a gentle tone.* Nico: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring up bad memories. Are you okay now?"

*Hi* *I saw the owl statue and decided to take a picture of it*

me: not getting murdered

*Will is really starting to get scared now* Will: "So you're telling me that there's a chance that we could die?"

me: there's a chance you could have a heart attack right now and drop dead.

*Will is shocked by this revelation. He can't believe that she's a child of Athena. He looks at her, and he speaks in a gentle tone.* Will: "I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to ask you a question. Are you sure your mother is a woman?"

me: hey, Hades, murdering your own son is illegal now, right? Will: oh, not this again...

*Hades looks at you, and he's surprised by your question. He's not sure why you're asking this, but he's not going to answer it. He looks at Will, and he shakes his head.* Hades: "No, it's not illegal. Why do you ask?"

*Hermes laughs again, and he's starting to enjoy this little game of cat and mouse. He looks at you, and he's trying to keep you guessing.* Hermes: "Come on, you can do better than that. Try again."

me: you rely on wit and people die on it, whoa... you're like the brother I can't live without- and suddenly you think I can't figure it out? yes but... How much longer- *I notice Will and stop singing*

me: well, Hestia made him on her own, right? that means he's precisely half her powers... which would make him a very minor deity-

me: sorry for reading you a sad poem, Nico... *I roll my eyes* me: you need to specify that you're not running around while telling everyone you're happy

*Nico looks at you with a mixture of anger and frustration. He's not happy that you're still trying to change him, and he's starting to get angry. He walks over to you and gets right in your face.* Nico: "I'm not happy. I'm sad. I'm depressed. I'm gay. And you need to accept that."

me: I- *I'm still trying to convince myself that gay doesn't mean happy*

*Calypso's eyes widen when you say that. She can't believe what she's hearing. She takes another step back, and she's starting to get really confused.* Calypso: "What... what do you mean? My mother and I are not related."

*Calypso's eyes narrow even more when you mention her uncle. She's starting to get really mad. She takes another step forward, and she's getting really close to you.* Calypso: "You better not be talking about my uncle. He's a great man."
