Knowing that Will like canonically listens to true crime is so funny to me but mainly because of how many like serial killers and just general crime and cults that went on in the 50's so imaging Nico just being like

Nico: "Uhh.. i remember once back when i was little i met this really cool guy named ___"

Will: "THE SERIAL MURDERER????"

and then he infodumps

[marspumpkin]

nico and will both drink solely black coffee but for different reasons. will's a sleep deprived med student and nico's italian

[theprinceofdarknesssquad]

Nico: You're the love of my life and my best friend, I would do anything for you.

Will: I want you to eat three meals a day and have a decent sleep schedule.

Nico: Absolutely not.

[xixovart]

hey! saw your nico/will post about how they are rather similar than opposite attracts. totally agree btw! however, in your elaboration you said that both were disabled? could you explain to me why?

much love!

helloo!! yes i'd be glad to elaborate! that was mostly built on widely-regarded headcanons on will's part, i hc him as deaf, but nico canonically suffers from constant fatigue and sometimes stuggles with mobility

also, im not sure if it's ethical to refer to mental illnesses as disabilities, but they both have adhd and nico ptsd

thats all, thanks for the ask and i apologize for any controversy

RANDOM WILL SOLACE HCS / TIDBITS:

• he / they . transgender male :-)

• AuDHD, This is a hill I am willing to die on

• Considered Extroverted, in the way he likes talking to people (certified yapper) but doesn’t actually have many close friends.

shout out to lou ellen & cecil

also Clarisse & Annabeth they’re his cooler older friends who he has on speed dial “just in case”

in case of what? “back-up”

also no friends outside of camp

• But he does know everyone at camp. Been there a solid 5 (?) years, year round. Working at the infirmary leads to you meeting everyone eventually.

• Super close with his mom but doesn’t know his family on her side. They cut contact with Naomi after she got pregnant.

“My mom is basically like my best friend, and I wouldn’t trade that for the world.” -TSATS

• Fidgets a lot Whether they’re nervous or bored or not feeling any particular emotion or hyper or worried or focusing

Leg bouncing, Adjusting position constantly, Crossing & Uncrossing legs, Drumming fingers, Rocking, etc

“He bounced his right leg up and down as he glanced around the train carriage. Nico reached over and placed his hand on the bobbing thigh” -TSATS

• MOTION SICKNESS.

AIRSICK, SEASICK, CARSICK, GENERAL MOVING VEHICLE SICKNESS.

“As for Will, he was not doing as well. He had a white-knuckle grip on the door, his eyes were wide with terror, and he was obviously trying to get a handle on his breathing.” -TSATS

• See, they like travel but he just…loathes….the…travel…part…

• On the contrary Nico is entirely immune to the horrors of travel related sickness.

He's used to feeling worst effects that Shadow Travel can do so everything else sorta pales in comparison.

Nico di Angelo is the kinda guy to be sent to burn at the stake and go “I��ve been through worse, probably.”

• Speaking of Shadow Travel, Will doesn’t do well with it the 1st or 2nd or 3rd or 4th or 5th time. He doesn’t do well the 6th and onward either but eventually he gets the hang of surviving it. Eventually. At shorter distances. They’re making progress. Slowly.

Nico has spun this into a multifaceted exercise.

He must practice shadow travel safely

He doesn’t need supervision for it but will allow some for the sake of Will’s peace of mind.

Speaking of Will, the supervision is Will.

Also he must test out the limits of his powers which includes traveling to other cities / states / countries.

But….He needs proper rest and recovery…..

The fact they landed in Paris for a whole week once was certainly not a planned vacation What are you talking about.

Completely Random Totally Unplanned Date Trips are actually proven to be quite beneficial to one’s mental and physical health actually. - Dionysus (Who Doubles as Nico’s Therapist and Lawyer) talking to Chiron, probably.

He’s rooting for his nepo babies, who are not babies and also not his.

Also with those 2 gone the chances of the camp descending into chaos rises at least 23%.

Mr. D’s got a bet going on with Mr. A.

“How long until they try to overthrow Chiron”

[im-probably-playing-genshin]

me and my friends conversations as pjo character part 8 or sum

Nico: *weird like scream/hum noise

Will, sweetly: mhm

Will, endearingly: go on <3

[crush-like-that]

Who do you think is more jealous/possessive between will and nico? And how do you think he acts when feeling jealous?

OHHHHH i love this question thank you anon I think they're both jealous!!!!! but if I HAD to say who is more so out of the two, I think I'd say Nico

Will is like the sun on Earth. Warm smiles and bright laughter. He's tall, has hair that looks gold in the sunlight, has gorgeous blue eyes that are always shining like the sky. He's ATTRACTIVE. And this doesn't go unnoticed by the other campers! When Nico first realized he liked Will, his thought process immediately turned too "I'm not good enough for him/he's too good for me." He'd notice the lingering glances, the sighs and the blushes, the whispering of the other campers (though, most of it probably was just him being dramatic and reading too hard into things) and it really pushed the idea that he wasn't good enough. But then he and Will started to become friends like, incredibly fast. Nico's blown away, doesn't know how Will can even stand to be around him but, for some reason, he can. And he wants to. So Nico starts to notice things about Will that go unnoticed by the other campers, and it sort of becomes this possessive ego thing in his mind: "I know Will better than you do, and I don't even want you to THINK about getting to know him." But Will has other friends and other people and Nico BURNS watching them together. Will laughs and jokes with other campers and something sinks low in Nico's gut because that's how Will should be. Not held back by Nico, staying with him when he's afraid to go into the crowds and afraid to be around others. So it turns into this very odd "Will is Mine"/"Will Can't be mine" thing. Very confusing. Very painful. I'd say this jealousy eases up as they date, the more time goes by, the more sure of himself Nico is. He doesn't doubt himself and he doesn't doubt Will's love and devotion to him. He's still jealous, sure, but it's not over the small things, and it's not such a big deal. how he ACTS when he's jealous, though. Very short tempered. Death glares. Quick, biting responses. If he's with Will and someone starts being Too Much, Nico will cut in and answer for Will, cut the other person off, etc etc.

ex: (Nico and Will, out somewhere) (person starts flirting with Will) person: So how are you today? Will: I- Nico: He's fine. Will: ...? Person: Oh uhm. What are you two doing here? Will: ... Nico: Oh, we're just leaving, actually

Snippy, short, generally unhappy. Stays like that either until the person leaves, or when Will and Nico leave.

[m-for-now]

So I just had a conversation w @adhd-desaster and got sent this video

A post shared by Satish Bisa (@bruhtish_)

And I said "Will Solace" bc you know.. Apollo child and from Texas and out of nowhere, my dear dear friend (who doesn't notably ship solangelo) just comes up with a headcanon for them immediately??

Hc was that Will would totally use this as an advantage to make Nico flustered, which would work especially good bc Nico comes from a time where movies weren't a thing so he would probably have been into theater plays (quote: "I mean shit he comes from Italy, former Roman empire there is a lot of theater culture in is blood") (most of that was a quote but anyways-)

Solangelo nation what do we think about this?

Here is my friend's post about the same thing go say hi!!

[ravenexy]

“to all the nicos, wills, pipers, and everyone in between: this is for you. may you shine as bright as the sun and the stars”

shutUp i’m shaking crying throwing up

[xixovart]

canon solangelo barely exists in my head

in my head nico & will act like stupid kids around each other. because, yk, neither of them got to actually enjoy their childhood. nico moved around a lot, lived as an orphan, and forgot most of his life. will spent his childhood at chb, looking out for others instead of himself. so it only makes sense for them to be so in love for them to let their guards down around each other. and for them to hear the other’s laugh and in it find the innocence they lost.

in my head nico and will act like stupid kids. they have pillow fights, dumb contests (which they get VERY competitive over), eat junk food (occasionally, because health matters), invent games, jump around and call it dancing while blasting music, swim at the beach and have water fights until their arms are tired. they’re never too far away from each other. they’re always touching. holding hands, leaning one’s head against the other’s shoulder, running their fingers against the other’s knuckles, tracing the lines of the other’s palm, playing with their hair. subtle movements. out of pure habit.

the thing is, so much is expected out of both of them. but not from each other. the only thing nico expects is for will to love him, and the only thing will expects is for nico to love him. that’s it.

Will is so boyfriend material it baffles me how Rick can fuck it up so bad.

[ollies-headcanons]

Imagine Will using like healing magic to soothe Nicos headaches everytime he has them. Like he gently drags his hand on Nicos head and his hand glows while he soothes them. And then Nico falls asleep.

[yournormalgodapollo]

imagine will not being able to answer anything about his plans for the future, because the moment when 13-year old will solace stepped up as the head counselor for cabin 7, he accepted that he wouldnt be making it to 18, just like how lee and michael did, just like the rest of his unnamed siblings

but now, he indulges himself in thinking about a future where hes happy and alive and together with nico, because theres someone out there who loves him so much that he would want to for him to live

will held hope in the future, and he clung to it

[valzhanginator]

did the show just delete the fact that percy was a wanted criminal in the entirety of the lightning thief? gabe gave an interview, blaming percy for sally's dissappearence, which made him the primary suspect. like the police was after him when they blew up the bus and his iconic 'my stepdad is a really sweet person' speech to a journalist after jumping from saint monica arc, people conspiring that they were manipulated into a t*rrorist group after his fight with ares. like????? where's all that?? where's the good stuff???

[losersolace]

i think neither nico nor will is freaked out by blood and things of that nature. i see them sitting at the dinner table like “and then the monster just EXPLODED and its guts went EVERYWHERE—“ while calmly eating and the ppl around them are like ???

[secret-agent-of-bullshitery]

Will, trying to make conversation with Nico during the three days in med:

Will: The Ocean is a soup.

Nico:

Nico: Do elaborate.

Will: What are needed for something to be a soup?

Nico: Erm... Water, salt, some form of vegetation, and personally I prefer some meat in mine.

Will: *Tilts head*

Nico: The Ocean is a Soup.

Will: The Ocean is a Soup.

[xixovart]

elaboration.

will solace and nico di angelo have more in common than the fandom (and oftentimes canon itself, no hate to rick) wants to admit. both were disabled lgbtq kids raised in conservative and oppressive settings, and were forced into a role they never truly wanted to be in (will was a healer probably before he was ten, nico is pretty obviously the kid that people fear and don’t want to get near to). they were the younger sibling mostly raised by an older sibling who they lost because of kronos’ army. both are in a way pushed aside and excluded from the camp, kind of like black sheep. nico for obvious reasons, but will couldn’t fight and couldn’t even participate in camp events like capture the flag because he had to be resdy in case of an injury. they both lost their childhoods because of their powers and abilities. they’re their fathers’ favorites. naomi reminds nico too much of maria, even if the memories are hazy and not quite there. they have a younger sister (kayla, hazel) they sort of adopt and look after like their older siblings once looked after them. they overwork themselves to the point of exhaustion. they would sacrifice themselves for those rhey love and did. multiple times. they’re passionate and dedicated and determined. their love for others is rare but it’s beautiful.

the reason nico and will work so well together is not because they’e opposites, it’s because they are so similar. and you know what? in the end their similitudes (no idea if that’s an actual word in english but fuck it, we ball) make their relationship so much stronger because rhey know how the other feels. they know what it’s like. both of their situations and traumas are so unique that they each thought no one would ever understand. but we all know how that ended. nico and will are soulmates and they invented love actually. they’re the tide, they push and pull and they contrast but their similarities drown their differences. they get each other in ways no one else ever has or will and that’s something so fucking rare and so lovely

solangelo is only “opposites attract” in aesthetics and nothing more but you guys aren’t ready for that conversation
