Cupico is just my excuse for another getting outed debacle. That is, Cupid’s obsession with Nico get ‘outed’ when Nico accuses the god of being in love with him. It’s a messed up thing bc they don’t have the best healthy relationship. And even Cupid cannot escape the grasp of his own domain as he keeps getting all riled up when Nico holds it over his head. It’s not healthy, but nothing i’ve ever made is healthy anw.

wanna write a Jercy + Cupico fanfic so bad

Something something. Percy sees Nico's new boyfriend, who has blue eyes tinted gray and sandy blond hair, and teases him "So you like blue-eyed blonds, no wonder I wasn't your type."

To which Nico stares at him for 3 secs, glances at his boyfriend, and then stares at Percy again. "My boyfriend is Cupid. He has brown hair and red eyes."

Percy freezes. By Nico's side, the 'blond' guy smirks.

Who is whose type now, huh.

Cupico is such fun bc it's the definition of a loving, obsessive, sacrificial, vain, toxic relationship and I get to throw in everything that would get me canceled.

Anw imagine the face of the campers when they find out the creepy kid they sidelined somehow landed himself the freaking god of Love, accompanied by an overwhelming devoted obsession that pisses off Aphrodite. After all, Jason's the only one who has the slightest sense of how disgusting said love is and about the demand of control Cupid holds over Nico, as if he was Galatea to Cupid's Pygmalion, for him to bend, to twist, and to mold. (Not like Nico's gonna let it happen. There would be blood before Cupid managed to harvest a single grain of love from him)

Cupid/Nico is just so poetic like imagine successfully seducing love himself. I’d brag ab it for the rest of my life.

Something something Cupid is smitten with Nico's love but dislikes Nico because Nico often restrains his own love thinking of it as wrong and sinful which is an obviously blasphemy to Cupid's name thus grants him the god's harsh treatment in this essay I will---

About the Nico and Cupid/Eros post, really curious as to what would a dearly detested relationship entail?

Petty opinions?? "I brought you poisoned chocolate valentines"?? What does it mean?? Please, I need to know.

Oh boy, is this a foreboding ask.

Nah. Anyway, you got me pretty close there buddy. When I say dearly detested, it's exactly like you said: love and hate, swirling.

Warning: I'm, genuinely, talking in the perspective of a Cupid/Nico shipper. Do not proceed if you have qualms with the very aspect of this ship's existence.

Now, I suppose we all agree that there's less than zero chance that Nico would love Cupid/Eros. I mean, if I were him - unless I'm in a dumb, cliché rom-com - there'd be no way in hell I'd love someone who had practically bullied and outed me brutally like what Cupid did to Nico. It can't be, well, love as in love. So what is it, then?

Love-hate. That's what.

I'm talking along the line of obsession and fascination (from Eros' side), degrading and conquering (from Nico's side). It can not be all sugar and sunshine when it comes to these two, at least, that's how I perceive them.

To be more specific, in the event that Eros and Nico do engage in a somewhat romantic relationship, I generally picture Eros as a collector admiring his favorite doll. He is fascinated by Nico's love - the way he loves, those he sacrifices in the name of love, the length he has gone for said love - and his godly possessive side leads to him desiring Nico's attention.

Nico is Cupid's favorite, one might say. Does he want Nico to be happy? Probably not. That sounds silly. Does he want to take Nico for himself? Definitely yes. What Cupid loves is the love that Nico holds. It has never been about happiness and holding hands and soft kisses. It's about how much tears and blood I can get out of you in the name of love.

Hence I say it tethers closer to obsession than mere romantic attraction. It's... abstract, I know. I barely understand what I want, too.

On Nico's side, though, it's just pure disdain. As I said, Nico can hardly - if ever - fall in love with someone who tortured him mentally and physically.

But Cupid is special to him - in the way that Nico would never resent someone nearly as much. Thus, the dearly detested.

In the fortunate scenario that I actually manage to write about this, I'd paint a Nico who takes his own love as a weapon and uses it to fight Eros himself. A Nico who thrives in knowing that it's his love that gets Eros thirsty and wanting. A Nico who loves fearlessly and fights just as relentlessly, knowing he is loved and he is precious, especially in the eyes of Eros, the very one that has gotten him miserable beyond repair.

And the love - the obsession, the want, the infatuation - that Eros holds for him is the exact proof as to Nico has won.

They use love as swords, and they make each other bleed. It's hardly love. But nothing I've ever done is healthy, so. well. I'd have talked more but I have a policy to keep this blog as NSFW as possible so. Another time, perhaps.

Anyway, thanks a lot for your ask! Hope this clears your trouble! xD Feel free to ask for more if you want to hear further my mindless thoughts lolol <3 <3 <3
