#defending will solace
Text
So I've been seeing a lot of will solace hate, and I'm here to defend my son.
First of all, he's not a toxic person at all he's a human who can mess up at times and be unintentionally rude, like in that one scene boo where he says
‘Oh, please.’ Will sounded unusually angry. ‘Nobody at Camp Half-Blood ever pushed you away. You have friends – or at least people who would like to be your friend. You pushed yourself away. If you’d get your head out of that brooding cloud of yours for once –
^ that is rude but he didn't have bad intentions because according to him nico wasn't scary and the people that he hung out with - Lou Ellen and Cecil- didn't think that nico was scary either as they were both friendly towards him when they met him at the Roman camping area outside chb so while his delivery wasn't good he meant no harm and he also helped nico realize that not everyone hates him and then there are a few jokes that he made that people consider toxic or offensive but nico was never offended or sad about these jokes he only rolled his eyes and acted exasperated so he knew will meant no harm .
Will is canonically described as a laid-back and calm person, but he is also stubborn when it comes to certain things like medical related things which is understandable since he can feel everything physically wrong with a person by just touching them and is persistent that they don't die and Take care of themselves which is understandable since he saw majority of his siblings die and doesn't want more ppl to die .
Will is actually quite a complex character he's calm and laid back but he's stubborn and strict when he needs to be he's supportive and loving to nico but since he's a kid he struggles with being understanding sometimes hence why he asks persephone for advice on how to be there for nico properly showing that he's mature enough to ask for help . He's also someone represses his emotions because he thinks that as head counselor, he has to be a perfect example, and he told this apollo in the 1st toa book. He's also pretty insecure about his abilities, as shown in boo
Evidence:
You did,’ confirmed Nico. ‘But it was the way you did it. You made it clear that you wanted me around. You said you wanted me to come to the infirmary and help, because … because you could use a “friendly face”.’
‘It was true. And you did help.’
‘You brought me closer instead of rejecting me,’ Nico said, his voice cracking. ‘I’d never been called a friendly face. Ever. You made me rethink everything – my place in camp, my crush on Percy, my future. It took you scolding me like you were the camp director to make me realize that I was … wanted.
___
But with Nico … It’s hard, Persephone. I want the best for him, and he seems to disappear into his darkness, like he’s hiding in a place where he doesn’t want my light.’
‘Then why not offer him your darkness
_____
Nico sighed in exasperation. He hated working with other people. They were always cramping his style, making him uncomfortable. And Will Solace … Nico revised his impression of the son of Apollo. He’d always thought of Will as easygoing and laid back. Apparently, he could also be stubborn and aggravating
_______________________________________
In conclusion will isn't toxic and he isn't perfect and if I'm wrong about something please point it out cause I haven't read the books in a while and if I missed something please point it out and I'm sorry for the typos I wrote this without wearing my glasses as 3 am after studying for a test

Do people not have media literacy? BOTH the Underworld and Tartarus were literally KILLING Will just by him BEING THERE. His health started dropping as soon as they really got there. It wasn't outright stated, but that's what context clues are for. He's basically a flower, which is extremely ironic with Apollo's love history. Flowers wilt, and die, without sunlight.
Yeah, Nico is a child of the Underworld, and Will needed to accept that he didn't need to be constantly saved. However, it's in Will's nature to be against the Underworld in a mental mindset. He lost every single one of his siblings except for TWO during TBOL and Manhattan. Events we NEVER see him mention (probably because Rick is really bad at having characters that aren't a select few ever have their trauma brought up, but yknow) to anyone.
Will isn't the only one that had things to work on, though. If Nico hadn't thought things out rationally, hadn't calmed down before thinking, he could've been the indirect reason Will died in Tartarus. The thing is, Nico STRUGGLED to think rationally, and we see it when he lashes out on Will before thinking AFTER the fact.
Bottom of the line: Will isn't a bad person for not liking the Underworld. And it's something he says he's working on at the end of TSATS, so people shouldn't fault him for it. The entire point of the book was them both having problems & their relationship not being all sunshine & rainbows.

“This isn’t something Will would ever say,” shut up. SHUT UP. SHUT UP. OF COURSE WILL IS NOT 100% SURE ABOUT THEIR RELATIONSHIP. IT WOULDN’T BE A TRUE RELATIONSHIP IF HE WAS.
Will is a healer. In fact, he’s regarded as the best healer at CHB. He has so much weight on his shoulders to save the wounded and live up to the title of head counselor of the Apollo cabin. In fact, it is stated in BoO that Will is insecure of his healing abilities, because he wish he could do more to help the front lines, such as being an archer like everyone expects out of Apollo kids. But he can’t, so naturally, all he knows how to do is heal.
Not to mention, many of Will’s half-siblings died. His previous head counselors - his role models - Lee Fletcher and Michael Yew all died in PJO. He was left with the duty of head counselor at 13 years old. Thirteen years old. Thirteen years old, and suddenly he is the eldest in Cabin 7. Thirteen years, and suddenly he has to be the role model for all his half-siblings.
This means, he’s never had the chance to go out and explore his own desires, because his responsibilities will always outweigh anything. That is, until he gets closer to Nico after the war.
Later on in this book, Will states that he’s never met anyone like Nico. And that pretty much just sums up everything.
Nico is his polar opposite. He’s a child of Hades, of the Underworld. He is, quite literally, the son of death.
He spends some of his time actually in the Underworld. The Underworld, the resting place for Will’s half-siblings. The Underworld, the resting place for the patients he could not save. Of course Will is skeptical of the Underworld. I mean, who wouldn’t be?
Will Solace is completely valid for his opinions. Why? Because he tries. He tries his best to understand the Underworld. He tries his best to understand Nico.
So yes, I thought this scene was absolutely beautiful. This is why Will and Nico will always, ALWAYS, hold a special place in my heart.

See there's two really funny ways Will's series reveal can go
1. He looks exactly like book Percy
2. He looks exactly like Lance McClain

“Will is so weak than even his plague powers could only give Nyx hay fever!!“
I’m sorry did we forget Nyx is a goddess??
A primordial goddess??
Gods can’t get sick
If Will managed to gave a primordial goddess hay fever imagine what he could do with a mortal

I just had possibly greatest/strangest fic idea
so character A is a math nerd and character B is in their math class and they like each other, the usual. Character A decides to show their love by literal equations to solve to confess. So every day they give character B a literal equation to solve and in the end they spell out "i like you"
[Bonus: The teacher helps with the equations and silently cheers them on]

my favorite headcannon ever is whenever Nico goes through one of those phases where he can’t really control the nature he kills around him (grass, flowers, other campers, etc) Will makes him those pipe cleaner flowers that can’t die and it’s just so cute

Oh so when Nico di Angelo gets a crush on the male protagonist after knowing him for only a short time but falls in love with him despite them being seperated for a whole year and shows up at his bedroom to talk to him because they're friends who're supposed to save the world together and does questionable things but without ill-intentions due to his abusive dad and gets character development from them and the fandom makes nonstop jokes for years about the protag being upset and jealous over him not liking him anymore and now has switched to saying Nico has a thing for blondes because of the show adaption,he's a childhood icon and super relatable and 'gender' and the best gay guy rep ever but when Gwen Stacy does literally the same thing and has a single ooc moment of jealousy and posessiveness over another female character who she hasn't actually treated badly herself and has yet to have a defining relathionship with her in canon since there's still a third movie for us to see it,she's one of the worst written characters ever and anti-feminist and 'racist' and dosen't count as trans girl rep🤨?

Ok so I've just finished reading the tsats for the third time and was scrolling on tumblr when I saw that people were coming for will again like the I get that people have their own opinions and they're allowed to have them but like these people are wrong on so many levels and I'm gonna defend will again but this time it's him from the sun and the star.
Problems that people have with will :
1. Will was trying to fix nico :
No he wasn't dude this whole time will was horrified because of the underworld which went against his nature and everything he stands for like will is a child of the sun who is attracted to life and light like a moth,and he does his best to prevent death as he is a healer and the underworld is full of death and darkness so will subconsciously thinks that its a bad place . While will thinks this and expresses his opinion by saying that I could never stay here , he never says anything bad about nico or to nico like yes he finds nico collecting bones unusual ( which it kinda is but it's also cool as hell ) but he also accepts it as nicos hobby and says nothing . He never indicates that he wants nico to change himself and he's just confused about how to show nico that he loves him in a way nico will appreciate because he feels that nico doesn't always want his light which is why he asks persephone on how to do it and then throughout the book he learns that light and darkness have a balance and that he also has darkness inside him (sorry I got off topic 😅) but he accepts nicos darkness ( he's never been against it and kinda gets it but yk he completely gets it now) and he loves him for it and apologizes for his closed mindset before on two occasions and he was never trying to upset nico in the first place.
2. Will being an asshole:
Now I have no idea where this came from but willam Andrew Solace is not a jerk. He was confused about the culture of the troglodytes but after sometime he was nothing but appreciative, supportive ( of hiss majesty) and thankful of them . Same with the underworld he was put off at first but then he realized the beauty of the underworld and was nothing but appreciative and apologizes for being close minded. He is a caring boyfriend and tries to understand the dark parts off nico and be supportive like in page 35 he tries to comfort nico after his nightmare . He tries to understand nicos feelings but admits ( in page 198) that sometimes it's hard for him . He asks about meeting nico's dad as he knows that he's important to nico and in turn will says he's important to will because he cares about what nico cares about and tries to not invalidate him . On page 373 he asks about nico's mom but as soon as he senses that nico might be uncomfortable he quickly tells nico that he doesn't have to say anything and that he doesn't mean to pry he's genuinely curious about nicos past . On page 229 he says that they should talk to Chiron about giving credit to the underworld farm for making ambrosia and this tells us that he's a fair person and yk jerks are not . On page 227 he even says that they shouldn't be too rude too greyon as some people change like Ethan and Luke for the better like this boy is soo kind that he potentially forgave Luke, the same Luke who was the reason why he lost soo many of his siblings and now he's willing to give a giant a second chance . I feel like we forgot that this dude is going to save a titan he never met and that he's going litteral super hell for his bf because he didn't want him to be alone .
3. Will is controlling :
Again no he is not actually like my bro told nico that he shouldn't shadow travel without reason as it is bad for his Health which we know he's right about and he's not forcing nico to do anything he's telling him a fact which nico knows is true so he goes along with it . And I feel like people forget that no matter how terrified and confused will was, he trusts nicos judgment like when both of them enter tartarus and nico tells Will to hold onto his ankles and will was confused but he did it and he didn't let go even as he was screaming .
4. Will doesn't trust nico :
Yes he does bro he trusts him enough to let nico take him nyx's palace which he couldn't see at the moment like he knew that if he fell he'd fall into chaos and cease to exist so yeah 😐
5. Will was whining too much :
Bro will was dying ever since he set foot in the underworld like his wounds weren't cloting, and he was emotionally, mentally, and physically exhausted, and he was forgetting things . My bros life force was being drained he was tweaking in tartarus like son was losing his shit and going insane but he never showed hesitation of going into tartarus like nico was worried about him and thought of going away because he didnt want will to be hurt but will was undeterred .
I think that's it, and if I missed something please tell me , I'm sorry If it doesn't make sense I'm sleep deprived rn because of exams and could barely tell if what I was typing made sense . I also wanna add that everyone is entitled to their opinion, but before you criticize a character, make sure what you're saying isn't countered in the canon text . Ik many people were disappointed by Wills' characterization, but he's actually not a bad person in canon he's just a confused little night light, but he's trying his best ok so let him live 😭. Thank you for listening to my rant, and have a good good day

The idea of Nico meeting Will (Wisp) and just being so utterly confused, because he's a son of hades (and Will definitely should not be alive right now) has infested my brain for so long, I needed to draw it.
Bonus Vincent being a dumass and Will (Solace) absolutely not knowing what on earth is happening. Seeing an edgier version of his boyfriend walking into maccas with a shotgun, and a hyper energetic red head imediently chowing down on a cartoonishly large amount of food, definitely left him with some questions.

I liked Xander. Season 4 and 5 had him really growing on me for the role he played as Buffy's Heart and how that carried through his dialogue and also just the interactions he had with other characters.
I'm 5 episodes into season 6 and i just want to peel his skin off. He is making Anya unhappy. She's ready for you, Xander. she has been since day fucking one. you are squandering everything I have ever wanted, just pissing it away while the best woman in the world is sad about it. You don't deserve her tears you loser. I've watched her beam at your petty insults, I've watched her accept the way you never take her side in any disagreement. Does it not bother you how much she loves your friends and they don't return the feeling? The only scooby who liked her was Buffybot (and probably Tara because Tara is sweet). Sometimes Spike. Cordelia tried to save herself from you multiple times but you teased her along and look what happened.
Alexander Harris you are a scoundrel and loser. Faith should have finished strangling you. Jack should have jammed Katie through your heart. You should have taken Spike's advice and killed yourself. You should have become a fishman and returned to the ocean to be eaten by sharks. Buffy should have killed you when you talked down to her at your jobsite. Dream Snyder was right, you are a whipping boy, Harris. You are nothing, you are beneath her. Every time you are on screen, I see red.
You deserve nothing but you get everything. If you were real, I'd gut you like a fish. You disgust me, Harris. Whatever hardship you face for the rest of the show is not enough.
I hope you suffer, boy.

Solangelo is the only valid Will Solace/ Nico di Angelo ship. I dont wanna hear abt Pernico, Jasico, Will x Travis, none of that

Solangelo antis: Solangelo is a bad ship because it's ableist that Will wants to fix Nico who is heavily coded as autistic.
Solangelo antis when will is blunt and out of pocket without realizing, on edge in an unfamiliar situation, and struggling with black and white thinking about the underworld and healing: This is the worst person to ever exist.
