amnesiac!percy being super, super, super protective of hazel to a concerning degree but he brushes it off as maybe she reminds him of someone from his life before. when percy explains his plan of drinking gorgons blood, hazel offers herself up to drink the blood. she’s died once before, she can do it again. percy has something to do, he has people to find. he can’t risk his life for something like this. hazel can do it. chances are, with the doors of death open and thanatos locked up, she can find her way back as a child of pluto.
percy refuses. he won’t let her get a word out. she insists. he refuses. their argument crescendos into him calling her bianca. its draws them all up short. percy is confused, he has no idea whose name that is. he has no idea why his chest hurts so bad. hazel does. hazel knows. its her dead sister’s name. nico’s real sister. the one he lost years ago.
she knew that percy and nico knew each other, nico pretty much confirmed it but he refused to elaborate on any of the details. percy must’ve known bianca. that must be where percy and nico knew each other from. she has grown somewhat used to nico calling her bianca, she had been a substitute, a consolation prize from the underworld. nico couldn’t find his real sister so he settled for a shadow of her. she had thought percy, someone she had grown to think of as an older brother, would be different. yet here he is, with no memory, calling her the name of a ghost, someone she can never hope to live up to. someone she can’t compete with. someone who will always be better than her.

Friendly reminder that Nico Di Angelo as a child, loved pirates and Greek mythology.
Imagine a 10 year old Nico getting excited that the Greek gods exist, then finding out that he gets to learn how to sword fight just like pirates do. (He was so excited he ended up cutting his leg resulting in a scar)
And now imagine all that excitement disappear when he learns that he can never show his big sister what he learnt.

"Despite what she'd said about meeting him again, Jason wondered. She'd found a new family with the Hunters, and a new mother in Artemis. She seemed so confident and comfortable with her life, jason wasn't sure if he'd ever be part of it. And she seemed so set on finding her friend Percy. Had she ever searched for Jason that way?"
Well, Jason, considering you're never mentioned in the original five books: she probably stopped caring about you after a while. Assuming you were dead, she grieved but mostly moved on. And you're right. I don't think you'll ever belong in her world. Because she has new people in her life, and you're not as important as her Hunters or as Artemis or even as Annabeth or Percy. You're not as important to her as you could be.
But screw thalia. You don't need her. You have Leo and Piper and Coach Hedge. Those three are some of the best people you could have. They actually like you and see you for you. They don't just see you as some two year old who tried to eat a stapler. They know the real you. They're real friends.
And eventually you'll have Nico and all the other members of the seven in your friend group too. You don't need a stupid sister who abandoned you to be a hunter…oh my god, it's Bianca di Angelo all over again! Why are there two male characters who get virtually abandoned by their sisters!? Great, now Nico and Jason really have something to bond over...

Overall I often think about Nico's entire self as characterized by being an outsider and it breaks my heart sometimes. Everything about him is "not like everyone around", from his nationality/ethnicity to his queerness and his parentage. And I can't even say that he's looking for acceptance/community (unlike his sister), he just gave up and accepted that he will never belong. I have so many feelings about his premise (not always execution).

Surprising skills I think Nico has: 1. Archery. He doesn't like using a bow, bc it's the Hunters' weapon, but if he has to he can use it pretty well bc Bianca showed him how to use hers in the few days they were both at camp. 2. Hair braiding, bc he used to help Bianca braid her hair sometimes.
I'd never thought about archer!nico but it would make more sense. he's not combative, not really. if anything, we've never seen him do too well with a sword, nor has any character mentioned he's a good swordsman (only that the sword has death-ish vibes)
besides, it would be fun to have a character who likes strategy but not close-combat, he stays on the outskirts, he observes and plans. he takes down an enemy or two that managed to get away. he'd make a good ally for athena's kids, who plan from the battle ground
hair braiding is a hc I did have for him, I can't remember if my og reason was him helping bianca, or just bianca being a big sisterTM who pressured him until he learned, but either way, he knows how to braid hair, that's for sure

Nico's love is so raw and heavy and powerful
His love raises the dead, tears open the earth, brings people back to life, goes through literal hell, destroys courtyards, grants invincibility.
Nico is so defined by loving and acting out of love and his love is so strong it changes the narrative

Cannibalism as a metaphor for devotion and possession and ownership, and cannibalism, consumption, devouring is so clear in Nico and Hazel and Bianca, the earth eats you, the decay feeds the ground, you bury a body and now it belongs to the underground, to the underworld, and it's clear in Percy, the ocean being clingy, needy, hanging onto to you in little beads and droplets, even as you surface, exhausting your muscles and pulling you down down down, swallowing you whole

Every description about Nico (especially the canon ones) describing him as “cold” can personally fight me. Nico is jaded, yes, and often closed-off and sometimes stand-offish and defensive but he is not "cold”. He cares SO SO SO MUCH about EVERYONE. He loves and cares with his entire heart constantly and that is a core part of his character. He doesn’t often make public shows of his affection but he takes care to be kind when it matters and doesn’t hide that he does care (usually, the only exception really being him being in the closet, but even then he only hid his crush specifically and not the fact that Percy is important to him). He fine with hugging his friends in front of a crowd and will sit with strangers at a campfire just so they’re not alone. I mean, heck, he’s an extrovert! We know this! He actively seeks out people and gets lonely very quickly and easily! If he can’t talk to living people he will chat with the dead! That’s how much he thrives on being social!
The only time Nico has ever been actively “cold” was the couple of months between TTC and BoTL when he was actively mourning Bianca. Nico is not “cold.” He loves so much and he does show it, just in his own way.
#pjo#riordanverse#nico di angelo#analysis#brought to you by: I saw a blurb for TSATS that said something like ''Will melted through Nico's icy heart/cold exterior''#and it made me want to tear something apart with my teeth because of how Blatantly Incorrect that is#like that is a disservice to both their characters.#a.) Will did not ''fix'' Nico or ''change'' him or anything. He is just a source of joy in Nico's life#TOA even explicitly acknowledges that them dating did not ''fix'' Nico and that Nico is actively getting outside help for his trauma/etc#and b.) Nico is not cold!!! He has never been a cold person!!! there's a reason ''emo'' is short for ''emotional!''#Nico's character is ENTIRELY DRIVEN BY LOVE AND CARE FOR OTHER PEOPLE#yes he's jaded but he's only jaded in a way of being afraid of letting people into his life because he's afraid to lose them#not that it stops him because it sure does keep happening anyways because SURPRISE. HE LOVES TOO MUCH.#HE LITERALLY CANNOT HELP HIMSELF HE LOVES PEOPLE SO STRONGLY AND SO DEEPLY HE CANNOT STAY JADED ABOUT IT#he just keeps going ''Okay *THIS* time I won't let this person into my life to risk heartbreak- AW FUCK I'VE DONE IT AGAIN''#SO MUCH of his character is entirely driven by ''I care about people. I dont want them to suffer what i have suffered or suffer at all''#like really the only times we ever see Nico being actively angry/snappy at people#is like a.) He is either actively being majorly hurt or has just recently been majorly hurt (Bianca's death. Being outed. etc)#b.) Someone is hurting others is going to bring harm to others (Calling out his dad in TLO. Killing Bryce)#or c.) Someone is doubting or calling into question his lived experiences (Basically any scene where people say he's pushing people away)#other than that Nico actually tends to give people way more lenience than necessary. he will put up with a LOT#and he won't even call people out on it or hold a grudge about it (i see you alleged Nico's fatal flaw. you're wrong)#unless it's like. something A Lot Of People Do Often (ex: push him away/exclude him/etc)#at which point he might be like. mildly upset about it but not much more then that. which is just a normal measured response.#anyways Nico's not cold he's just autistic

the pjo/omori brainrot have unfortunately come for me at the same time so i'm going to make it everyone else's problem. sorry
soooo... assuming the di angelos were a well-off family (which i think is implied, but don't check me on that), it wouldn't be so far-fetched to believe that bianca would have had the opportunity to learn the piano. and nico, who adores his sister and wants to be closer to her, thinks they can bond if he learns an instrument too, right? but he can't impose on the piano. that's hers. so he takes up the next best thing, something he can play by her side- the violin.
in a hypothetical AU where bianca di angelo doesn't join the hunters, she and her little brother nico spend their time shut inside the big house's piano room, going over the same pieces again and again. to bianca, it's her last connection to her mother, to the life they'd had before the lawyers and the lotus hotel and camp half-blood. to nico, it's a way of desperately trying to bridge the distance he can feel growing between them. to both of them, it's everything.
but it isn't enough.
and so she practices harder and her temper gets shorter and one day she snaps at nico because his violin doesn't sound right, just what aren't you getting, nico? and nico is only ten and just wants to make his sister happy, because everything should be alright as long as they're together- but what was supposed to be a shared hobby has only driven them even farther from each other. you can probably imagine what happens next, right? he storms away from her, maybe to a secluded part of the forest, and relishes in the way his violin shatters against the big rocks when he swings. and bianca is so, so angry and she's coming closer. her face is red and she's shouting at him, and nico does the only thing he can think to do in his panic and frustration- he pushes her. he pushes her into the same rocks that hold the splintered pieces of his instrument and can only freeze in horror as the snap of her neck makes the same sound.
maybe in this universe, he'd also befriended a certain son of apollo a little earlier on. will solace isn't very popular with the other campers- they love pointing out how ironic it is that a son of apollo couldn't play an instrument to save his life and he knows, even if they try to hide it, that his older siblings are embarrassed by him too. but then this enigmatic new demigod shows up, with nothing but his mythomagic cards, his violin, and a big sister who takes will under her wing, and they offer to let him listen to them practice- and all of a sudden, he isn't so lonely anymore.
nico is will's first and closest friend. so when he follows the sound of their argument and sees nico push his sister in a fit of anger, all he can think is nico wouldn't do that to her.
kind, earnest nico, who loved his sister more than anything... couldn't have killed her. it had to be something behind him, and he can't let them punish nico for what SOMETHING else did. will has to help him. everything is going to be okay.
everything is going to be okay, he says when he shakes nico out of his grief-induced stupor.
everything is going to be okay, he tells himself when they steal a coil of rope from the stables.
everything is going to be okay, even as tears blur his vision and he swears that the lifeless body swaying in the wind is looking at them.
he takes nico's cold, shaking hand and lies to himself.
everything is going to be okay.

i love you so by The Walter's is so so Nico di Angelo coded..
"i'm gonna pack my things and leave you behind" (him and CHB, leaving after bianca's death but also just leaving behind his old life and Percy in general)
"This feelings old and I know that i've made up my mind" (Denying his feelings abt Percy and betraying him)
"I hope you felt what I felt when you shattered my soul" (Percy telling him about bianca)
"Cause you were cruel and i'm a fool, so please let me go." (Nico's unrequited feelings and trying to hate Percy after what happened to his sister but it's not working)
"I love you so, please let me go" (Nico and Bianca
"I love you so, please let me go" (Percy and nico)
"I love you so, please let me go" (Nico and Jason)
"I love you so" (Will to nico, him finally letting go of bianca and everyone else)
