Nico and Percyβs dynamic in BotL is honestly the funniest fucking thing because Percyβs this emotionally exhausted 15 year old who is the sole person concerned about this feral 11 year old street urchin that wants to kill himβ¦Chiron and the rest of the camp are just likeΒ βsometimes, children are homeless and they die. what can you doπβ and Percyβs just likeΒ βno???? we need to make sure heβs eating???? and that heβs not captured by an army of monsters???β and Nico keeps trying to plot Percyβs downfall except he canβt actually come up with a plan because heβs Eleven or whatever and itβs justβ¦.remember when you were 15? remember what that felt like? now imagine being 15 and trying to wrangle an 11 year old thatβs hissing and kicking your shins into brushing his teeth. imagine trying to tell this little asshole to go to bed before 10pm and he pulls out a fucking sword. how is someone supposed to handle that??? Percy surely doesnβt know! thereβs a scene in BoO where Nicoβs likeΒ βI donβt want to eat anything, but I know Percy would annoy the fuck out of me to force me to eat if he was here ughβ sfkjsdfkj Percy literally had to CONDITION him into acting like a functioning personβ¦and Percyβs inner monologue half the time is likeΒ βYes I would kill for Nico di Angelo. Yes he is the worst person I know and I Will strangle him to death one day.β like he doesnβt even completely like Nico as a person but everyone else is just chill with letting him run around by himself so Percy somehow ends up having to pseudo-parent this goth brat when heβs 15 and Barely Holding His Own Shit Together likeβ¦.objectively an incredible dynamic lmao
