    Summary

    Will can't stop the tears that, once again, begin to stream from his eyes as he drags Nico into the Hades Cabin and slams the door. He can hear the crowd of campers outside the door, but can't bring himself to listen.

    ***

    His back hits the cold door, rough as he slides down to the floor. He discards the offending box to the floor, but he can still see it in his periphery. Fuck. He pushes fists into his streaming eyes and takes a few deep breaths before he can find it in himself to speak.

    "Does this mean you want to break up?" Even in the flickering lamplight of the Hades cabin, Will can see as Nico's eyes widen and his face grows pale.

    Or...

    Five times Will knew he was in a relationship with Nico and one time he realized he wasn't.

    Summary

    “Nico,” he croaks, eyes sliding shut again, “It’s two in the morning.”

    His eyelids reflect the flash of Nico’s grin. “You sound like a cowboy.”

    Will’s eyes pop open, and his face burns. He rockets straight up, shoving his best friend, who is laughing. Crosses his arms.

    “I damn well do —” He stops, catching himself. Nico snickers. He scowls, and enunciates his words carefully. “No, I don’t.”

    “Like Johnny Cash,” Nico says sagely, because he’s a jerk. “Didja just roll in from town, pardner?”

    Will scowls and goes back to sleep.

    Except, he doesn’t. Because Nico’s laugh is low and raspy, and the mattress dips by Will’s hip, where he leans against it. Where he rubs his palm over Will’s blanket-covered arm, making him shiver. Where he presses in close. Where the warm puff of his toothpaste-scented breath tickles the curve of Will’s ear.
    ---
    OR: Nico is a nuisance who doesn't sleep and is absolutely full of bad ideas. Will loves him, though.

    Summary

    “I don’t even really need a future,” Will reasons. He leans forward hopefully. “You can just buy me a palace somewhere and I can eat grapes in bed forever while you read to me, right?”

    Nico swallows. It takes a few tries. His discipline makes a brief reappearance to laugh again, and this time it brings his dignity — impressive, he hasn’t seen that in two years eight months fourteen days and half an hour, not that he has been counting or anything.

    “If that’s what you want,” Nico rasps. He quickly tries to recall the various real estate listings Demeter had passive aggressively thrown at him while muttering about millennials these days. There was a palace somewhere in Serra San Bruno, he thinks?? Fuck. That would work. Right? They grow grapes there he is pretty sure.

    OR: Nico is very easy to goad. Will enjoys goading him. Nico, too, enjoys being goaded.

    Summary

    "Fine," he concedes. "Whatever, she-demon. Let's just -- fix up, and then we'll figure it out."

    "We can't stay in here," she reminds him. "You're a homing beacon and they hate me personally. I won't be bringing a horde of demons to a hospital."

    "All good?" inquires Will, slipping in the room. "I got the files, moved as fast as I --" his leg brushes Nico's knee as he hustles past, and he pauses. He turns to face them both, eyes narrowed, hands on his hips. Nico freezes and has the sudden and long-buried feeling that he's in a principal's office. "Were you two roughhousing?"

    Reyna's jaw drops.

    "You are critically injured. In a hospital." Will shakes his head, face creased. "And you were roughhousing." He scoffs. "I have six year old patients who are less inclined to that nonsense, y'all, c'mon. Do I need to treat you separately?"

    "No!" they blurt at the same time, meeting each other's eyes to mouth: how did he know??
    ---
    OR: In a desperate run to a tiny, country-Texan hospital, seasoned questers Nico and Reyna meet a doctor who not only seems to know a thing or two about demigods, but seems a little divine himself.

    Only issue?

    ...He doesn't know.
