sfhadgl Its been confirmed Rick is writing a Will and Nico novel-
My thoughts:
YAYAYAYAY (Nico is my fav)
I'm slightly disappointed bc there were a bunch of other side characters that he could have chosen and given more context to, he could have also done a before they got to chb luke, thalia and annabeth novel.
I'm concerned about the way he's going to represent the couple bc hes not the best at getting these things right. He is also most likely going to further erase trauma.
Thoughts about what is going to happen in the book:
My biggest guess is that its going to be them going to tartarus to get bob back. My concern with this is that more inconsistency are going to be brought forward because we all know he does that a lot.
There is also most likely going to be a Percy and Annabeth cameo because Rick always includes them in his novels. I am also worried that the hinting that Annabeth is homophobic (which is bullshit) would be elaborated on.
I am excited though because if he does this right it could be a great opportunity to further flesh out Pipers character and her relationship with Shel. Its also exciting because of more representation. Over all I'm excited to see what may happen, though I don't have high hopes for it being a good novel.
In summary:
While I am excited I am also very worried about consistency, representation and other eras that rick may make. So I am most apprehensive and have mixed feelings about this.
EDIT:
It have been brought to my attention that the solangelo novel will be co written by Mark Oshiro who is a queer, YA, author. I have slightly more hope in the book now. also im like 70% sure its from nicos pov-
