I. Quando il gatto non c’è i topi ballano
Nico had been gone for a month here but almost a year in the real world. He's a little taller than he had been, and he has new scars, especially noticeable are the ones on his face.

He looked around the park, sighing, reaching up, and lightly touching the scars on his face, checking that they were still there. He wears them with pride.

Those who know him could see he was a bit more settled into himself, as if a weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

There is sorrow in his eyes. Being back here... and no Jason. And all the memories that he had forgotten while back in the waking world. That's something he'll think about later. He needs to go to the apartment he shared with Jason, go to Leo's, and find another place to live if he's back here. But he's in no hurry to do either.

II. Ciao di nuovo

Hey. Nico here.

I've been gone for a bit. It looks like I was in the real world longer than I was gone from here. Since Halloween just ended when I left, and it looks like Christmas is coming up. Weird. Percy, do you remember we went to Italy to get a present for Annabeth?

So, what did I miss here? You all missed out on me becoming a father. Maybe some of my kids, I have fifteen of them, will show up here. I hope they do; they're really cute.

[refantasma]

Start with what concerns you the most.

[judoflipped]

[refantasma]

yeah.

I can have my own show. Fifteen at Fifteen.

[judoflipped]

im so curious but i dont know if i wanna know

[refantasma]

[Nico could troll some more, but Percy's met Nyx, so.]

Nyxs is the mother. Well. technically I am since they came out of me.

[... Or he could still troll a bit. But Percy does know Nyx is super powerful as one of the progenitor gods.]

[.............................................]

oh gods please dont give me that image please PLEASE thats awful

[refantasma]

dont worry your little straight man head. It was magic.

My kids are Cacodemons. they look like Cocoa Puffs more or less.

[judoflipped]

what does me being straight have anything to do with this???

[im crying he loves/hates nico]

you know thats not going to mean anything to me

[refantasma]

everything. dont question it.

There names are Despair, Isolation, Guilt, Contempt, Sadness, Shame, Grief, Fear, Gloom, Jealousy, Envy, Bitterness, Stress, Rage, and Disgust.

they're based on my emotions. now they hang around Cabin 13 and eat my socks.

[judoflipped]

[?????????????????????????????]

i should stop being surprised by what the gods do by now but i still am all the time

[refantasma]

she's one of progenitors. so you know shes powerful enough to do almost anything. even Zeus is wary of her.

want to be a godparent to one of them? Pretty sure you inspired Stress.

[judoflipped]

you already know my opinions about zeus so im not going there

[. . .]

well i guess thats not the worst one i couldve inspired

[refantasma]

yeah.

[Well, he inspired more than just Stress, but, he's over it.]

Nope. It's official. You and Annabeth are Stresss godparents.

[judoflipped]

ok me i get by why annabeth

[refantasma]

because you two are a package deal. duh.

[judoflipped]

well she keeps me out of situations so
less stress for you

[refantasma]

you see that works on paper. but in practice it doesnt.

[judoflipped]

oh so since youre a dad now you think you know everything

shes kept me from getting killed long enough to meet you
for us to save the world
even through the gaea stuff
so cant be that bad

[refantasma]

me being a dad has nothing to do with knowing I know more than you.

and thats why youre package deal. shes not the problem. you are.

[judoflipped]

apparently a lot of people know more than me so its not that hard

ok i can accept that

[refantasma]

And you know my thoughts on that.

[judoflipped]

yeah yeah read a book stop asking Annabeth for everything i know

[refantasma]

exactly. you're gonna go to college soon.

[judoflipped]

im getting OLD pretty soon youre gonna have to give me a walker for christmas
