i think something very important that people kinda forget is like. there is never any mention of percy actually Liking nico. there’s never affection just obligation and guilt. nico is a kid he just wishes he could stop worrying about. they ARE besties tho do not get this twisted sometimes a pair of besties is two people unwillingly handcuffed together by fate desperately trying (and failing) to make their situation better

#like idk i spend an unfortunate amount of time memorizing Canon Nico Lore and there is never a moment in pjo #where percy’s like ‘idk this kid’s kinda cool actually’ it’s literally just ‘god i wish we could be on better terms’ #like. he doesnt Want to be his friend he just wants him to be ok #Nico is the one that wants to be friends but he ‘s a little weirdo who keeps lying instead of being reasonable #this is why of all dynamics cousins forced to hang out on thanksgiving is the most accurate to their current state thank you for listening
