Nico Di Angelo - Tumblr Posts - Page 4
Percy: *trying to get Nico to wear a camp shirt*
Nico: leave me alone kelp-head
Percy: but Nico...
Nico:...
Percy:...
Percy:...
Percy: Orange is the new Black
Nico: *attacks him*
Will: *Walks in holding Nico’s hand*
Percy: So who finally confessed?
Nico: Me, I made it short and sweet
Will: You yelled “Listen here you little shit I have feelings for you and it’s about time you acknowledge them”
Nico: I made it short
in my mind, Nico is a swiftie
Honestly, he probably would be, and he wouldn't tell people, so when they find out it would just be like
Random camper: Hey Nico, I'm doing a crossword puzzle, and the clue is: Colour for track two, and the answer is six letters long, idk what artist though
Nico: try "Maroon"
Camper: It fits, who is that by?
Nico: *Under breath* Taylor Swift
Camper: Did you just say Taylor Swift, you like Taylor Swift?
Nico: err yes *Shadow travels away out of embarrassment*
Camper: *Tells everybody, so now when Nico talks to someone, they start quoting Taylor Swift randomly*
Now Will plays Taylor Swift anytime Nico walks in the room (He can still make the whole place shimmer)
Idk why I headcanon Nico as a swiftie I just do, it just works, also it's cute
From now on I decree Nico Di Angelo a swiftie (In my mind, y'all can do what you want with your headcanons)
ngl i've never seen andrea kimi antonelli and nico di angelo in the same room
These are sketches I made of Nico di Angelo from Percy Jackson :D
The one on the left is from 7 months ago and the one on the right is today. They are a bit hard to see but I'm really proud of what 7 months of practice can do :)
I don't know much about Nico since I'm only on book 1 still lol, but it's my friends' favorite, so I drew these for them originally
Thank you @rosabell14 for reminding me how much I despise Rick's portrayal of the hunters.
Good God where do I even start!?
Let's start with my girl Zoe, and look I love her, but I cannot bring myself to forget the blatant way she SPECIFICALLY chose Bianca to be on the quest.
It was obvious as hell that she chose her because:
She just got recruited, she has no bond with Zoe or other members of the hunt, therefore if they lose her, she wouldn't feel that guilty or upset about it.
Strategically, she's also inexperienced, by sacrificing her, they are preserving more precious and useful members of the hunt who have more experience in battle and teamwork. By losing Bianca, she is essentially losing NOTHING, because if she's lost, then they're just gonna be back to the way they were before.
She also does the bare minimum to protect her on the quest, mostly ignoring her for the most part. There is no scene where she tries to help Bianca learn or give her pointers to her, to, you know, NOT DIE!?
Might be harsh from me, but I put half of the blame of Bianca's death on her. Bianca was her responsibility, and Zoe is not a teenager, she is thousands of years old and has been in the hunt for many years. Yes, Bianca should have not touched anything, but she's a kid and the responsibility of kids on the assigned guardian.
Look, I know why Zoe did why she did, she's a human like the rest of us, but her feelings are an explanation for what she did, not a justification.
Next is Artemis.
I get why she offered Bianca a place in the hunt, but at the very least she could have let her also see camp before offering her that, especially because she has a little brother which she loves. I can't really say much about her considering that Percy got kicked out of the tent before we could hear what she was saying to Bianca.
The next thing is the hunters characterization over all.
I cannot stand the way they act in camp. I'm sorry Rick, but you CAN like girly things and still be a warrior, liking pink isn't gonna stop me from punching someone in the face and shattering their jaw.
Why would you make the hunters look down on the Aphrodite kids because of that? If I like more feminine stuff, it isn't gonna decrease my capability as a person, it doesn't make me less.
The hunters, even in the myths, weren't just a man-hating group, they have had male members before, like that one guy Artemis went to hell and back to resurrect after he got killed by a sea monster.
Thank you for coming to my ramblings.
I just finished reading The House of Hades and it was a ride to say the least /(°^°)\
Oof there would be a lot more if tags didn't haven't limits on them
reblog and put in the tags which fictional character you would marry
love languages ࿐ ࿔*:･ﾟ
pjo boys x reader (percy jackson, jason grace, leo valdez, frank zhang, luke castellan, nico di angelo, will solace, ethan nakamura) backtrack: "hype boy", newjeans inspiration: I love thinking about love languages (little disclaimer that these are all obviously just my opinion)
percy jackson
giving: acts of service
how many times has this guy risked his life to save the world? percy jackson is a true hero, always putting himself in harm’s way to protect those around him, such as when he chose the prophecy to protect nico. he always takes risks to protect his loved ones, and he constantly puts others’ needs above his own.
receiving: quality time
I guess I based this off of percy spending a bunch of time with rachel before last olympian. but demigods are in constant danger, and percy would cherish every moment he spends with his partner because, unfortunately, you never know when it could be the last. I also thought about acts of service, since he was really grateful when annabeth and grover wanted to go with him on that quest in lightning thief.
jason grace
giving: acts of service
jason’s a giver. he literally joined the fifth cohort to bring back their glory. he sacrificed himself for piper (rest in peace jason, you deserved better) and his whole life has been about serving camp jupiter and later, camp half-blood too.
receiving: physical touch
this might be kind of controversial. I just think jason’s been in such a strict, intense environment since he was a toddler that he’s definitely touch-starved. he probably melts at any physical contact with his partner. I also thought about words of affirmation because he’s always been held to such high expectations, he’d really need someone just telling him they love him.
leo valdez
giving: gift giving
lowkey I put gift giving because too many people were getting acts of service. but genuinely I think leo would love making little trinkets and machines and giving them to his partner. he’s not great at being vulnerable with words or touch, so he shows his love through little actions. similarly, acts of service is also definitely a love language of his; think of everything he did to help calypso after all, even though I hate that ship.
receiving: words of affirmation
this is probably the one I’m most certain about. let’s be honest, leo’s been through so much shit, he’s been called so much shit, that he just needs someone to appreciate and love him and tell him that. plus, he’s so used to rejection that one “I love you” will send him into a spiral for days on end.
frank zhang
giving: physical touch
not entirely sure about this one, I need to reread heroes of olympus. but I bet frank would give the best hugs. you’d feel so safe and warm wrapped up in frank’s arms, and I feel like he’d be the most likely to be physically affectionate with others out of pretty much all the riordanverse characters.
receiving: words of affirmation
the second one I’m most certain about. frank is quite sensitive and definitely needs praise. not needs as in he’s an attention seeker, but needs as in he blushes bright red and smiles super wide when someone praises him. it just makes him feel so warm and fuzzy inside.
luke castellan
giving: acts of service
luke is like the embodiment of the statement “a hero would sacrifice you for the world, but a villain would sacrifice the world for you”. he did everything that he did in order to build a better world; I genuinely believe he thought what he was doing was right for the greater good. and he brought back the titan lord and fought a war for a cause he believed in--what lengths would he go to to protect his partner?
receiving: words of affirmation
luke’s never received any sort of praise or recognition; it’s part of why he resented the gods so much in the first place. if he could have someone with him just to pick him up when he’s down, to encourage him and shower him with praise and love, he’d be so happy. although I like to think he’s a touch-starved baby who’s really clingy with his partner too.
nico di angelo
giving: quality time
nico’s not a talker, he’d much rather listen or sit in silence with his partner. spending a lot of time with his partner would let nico feel closer to them. there’s a special sort of connection and understanding that comes from shared experiences. acts of service was also another contender. nico would do everything for those he loves. take bianca, for example, and how hard nico tried to bring her back in battle of the labyrinth.
receiving: physical touch
another touch-starved one. he was taken out of time for seventy years, came back and lost his sister in like five days, went through two wars, had to deal with coming to terms with his sexuality; the poor guy has been through tartarus and back (literally). poor nico. someone give him a hug. I also thought about words of affirmation, since nico constantly struggles with being isolated and would probably really benefit from some reassurance and support.
will solace
giving: acts of service
I mean, he’s literally a healer. he does everything for others. enough said, really. he puts others’ wellbeing first, and in the process sometimes overlooks himself and his own needs. which leads to. . .
receiving: acts of service
will is so used to people taking care of him that he never asks for help when he needs it. the little things, like helping him out when he’s tired, is the way to his heart. no one’s ever really looked out for him since he arrived at camp half-blood, and he had to take over the apollo cabin when he was barely a teenager. it’d be nice for him to have someone take care of him for a change.
ethan nakamura
giving: acts of service
I don’t know why so many characters have acts of service as a giving love language. maybe it’s because they’re heroes and fight and do stuff for their respective causes, so naturally they give off a giving or take-action vibe? but anyway, ethan fought and gave his life in order to gain his mother--and himself, honestly--more recognition. he takes action for those he cares about and always wants to defend his beliefs and help his friends, even though his ways may be a little questionable.
receiving: words of affirmation
really similar to luke. ethan’s always been undervalued and overlooked. he just needs validation and support. encouragement and praise would help him finally feel acknowledged, accepted, and valued.
I wanted to post this on valentine's day but I got too excited

Will: You matter, don’t give up!
Nico: You don’t matter, give up.
“show me the places where the others gave u scars” will solace x “u drew stars around my scars” nico di angelo
I’m sorry but why does Lu!Ravioli give off the strongest Solangelo vibes I’ve ever seen?
Their godly parents might not match up but their personalities sure as hell do. Legend and Nico are both very sweet and protective of those they love but hide it under a veil of sarcasm and abrasiveness to protect themselves from getting hurt again. They both have way too much quest experience and have done more shit than half the people around them combined. Both have lost many people close to them and feel immense guilt about it. I wanna give both of them hugs and forehead kisses and make sure they never worry about a single thing for the rest of their lives.
Ravio and Will line up a little less perfectly but are still shockingly similar. Or at least they are according to my headcanons. Both annoy their partners to death and back but also care very deeply and try not to trigger them. They both are trying to make sure their respective self-sacrificial idiot doesn’t get killed throwing himself into the line of fire. I’ve even seen multiple fics and headcanons about Ravio working in the medics tent during the War of Eras because he’s too cowardly to march into battle. They are also both the more personable partner.
And finally, both relationships fit the sunshine x emo stereotype.
Look, I’m just saying-
!!! Not a DC post !!!
People genuinely don’t call out how toxic the PJO and HoO fandom can be, so people, call them out in the reblogs and comments PLEASE
It can be ANYTHING. How Persassy is old and overused, etc.
!! New show fans get a pass ofc !!
Especially with how they treat Percy and Jason. Like, it was funny the first 100 times, but Percy cannot kill the gods, anything he can do Poseidon can do ten times better-
And, with Jason, sir, that’s a whole ass child soldier.
The Pain of losing him (Pt. 1?/Intro)
Summery: After Luke left, his girlfriend is alone to find herself. And as the years pass by, the girl with pretty hair becomes the Son of death.
FYI: This is part one of a fic I'm also posting on Ao3 and this is gonna serve as a background for the actual story (starting in chapter two) I'll be posting soon.
Sorry if this is bad lmao
No major content warning xx
~~~~~~~~~
When Luke Castellan was 19, he left. It was only three weeks after his birthday, the last week of july. He tried to take me with him, he really did. At night, as I toss and turn in my sheets, I can still hear his sweet voice filled with venom.
“Darling, Please. Whoever Your Dad is still hasn't claimed you? Don't you think we could-”
“Stop it luke. You’re crazy. I’m getting Chiron-”
“Y/N, Darling, don’t.”
And as i broke into a run, Something stung my ankle. When I woke up in the medic cabin hours later, he was gone. And a uncouncus Percy Jackson was beside me, his body turning in his unwanted sleep.
I was fifteen then. My own birthday was coming up. I spent it at camp Half-blood without luke. Without knowing who my godly parent was. The Hermes cabin wasn’t the same without Luke, but I couldn’t leave camp. I attracted monsters like flies to honey. I didn’t know what else to do. I spent my nights in Luke's empty bed, any of the Hermes kids could have tried to take it from me. They didn’t. They missed the ghost of their brother just as much as I missed the ghost of my boyfriend.
I was sixteen, when I went with the son of Poseidon to receive the golden fleece. It was supposed to be me, Percy, and Annabeth. And grover, after we rescued him. Clarisse tagged along. I hadn’t spoken to her, not since Luke. Believe it or not, they were friends. Despite the bickering and arguing, they were close.
Talking to her again made it impossible to not think of him.
Then, there were the sirens. Despite my better judgment, I tied myself up with Annabeth to hear their song. The first thing I saw was Luke. Then I saw myself. The scrawny girl was long gone. In her place, a boy. A boy with dark hair and eyes that matched mine. He looked like the boys in my old pinterest boards, in the stories with the morally gray characters. He looked like me.
When Percy freed me from the ropes, and received Annabeth from the deep, which was horrifying. I asked Annabeth for her dagger. They were both horrified as the hair fell over the side of the boat, but as I ran my hand through my new hair, I smiled.
When I went back to camp with Grover and the golden fleece, I went back to the Hermes cabin. And I still slept in his bed, but I felt so much better because not only was I a different person, I was myself. I talked to Chiron, and got a proper chest binder and then everyone knew I was a boy.
I was still sixteen when My hair went from blonde, to brown, then to an inky black. The change in my hair was something I didn’t know how to feel about it. But it looked like me. And then, when I woke up from the nightmares of Luke, and I went outside to escape the restraints of his cabin, the grass died under my feet. I didn’t tell anyone.
Percy Jackson was fourteen when his mom drove Grover, Thalia, Annabeth, Percy, and I to a boarding school. Me and Thalia had become quick friends and her anger towards Luke made me feel so, so much better.
That was when I met two kids with the same dark eyes as me. I felt some uncanny urge to protect them. When the quest was put forward, I wanted to go. I didn’t. Not until a disheveled looking Percy Jackson found me that night.
Percy promised Nico something that I didn’t quite hear.
Percy Jackson Held up the sky. So did Annabeth Chase. And so did I.
The cosmos weighed nothing compared to having to tell that little boy his sister was dead. I held his hand, and he said it, not to me, but to percy.
“Where’s my sister?”
I hugged him tightly as Percy handed him the last thing his sister wanted him to have. And the ground split open underneath me.
As Nico ran, the dark blur over my head told both me, and Percy Jackson about my father.
Thinking about Nico di Angelo when he gets a little sibling. They're only ten.
The next few days, Nico withdraws from... everyone. Everyone but that kid. He barely says anything. He skips meals, he's missing half of the time, only being seen by his new sibling and a few campers who see him alone on the beach or in the shadows.
Percy notices, and he starts to worry. After a few days of trying to reach Nico he finally corners him.
"Nico what is going on?"
"it doesn't matter-"
"no one has seen you in a week it sure as hell matters. Where have you been? What's wrong?"
"and why do you care?!"
"..cause I'm your friend."
"...you wouldn't understand."
"i want too-"
"They're ten, Percy! Ten! Ten years old! I was ten! I was only ten years old! And she left me!"
And Percy freezes, the realization dawning on him, Bianca.
"...I would never leave them like Bianca left me. How..how could she do that to me, Percy? When I could never do that to them?"
"Nico.."
But percy hesitates. He doesn't have an answer. How could he know what to say?
And nico just shakes his head, dissolving into the shadows.

@we-ezer @sad-stucky-shipper-107
I did it guys :D
CWs: lowkey drugging, uhm kidnapping, toxic yaoi, gay pll (do i still have to put a warning for that one i mean come on guys), this is literally so toxic uhm, jealous nico, let me know if there's more!
Synopsis: After Nico finds out Percy is marrying annabeth he pays Percy jackson a visit with a special gift from his father...
Inspired by this post! (This is just part one! It only includes what happens in the post! Part two and maybe three will include what happens next!!!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nico hated the way his heart dropped at the small envelope. One piece of paper and years of ignoring and repressing his feelings were gone. Everything came back. A flood of anger and heartbreak at the 'save the date card' that was sent to all of Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase's close friends and family.
When he had first seen the envelope he was excited. Chiron had handed it to him at breakfast that morning, when he always passed out mail to campers. His heart skipped a beat when he read the return address, it was from Percy. And then he opened it.
He read it right there, sitting next to Mr. D, without bothering to hide his smile. He couldn't hide how quickly it faded from his face. How his grip on the paper tightens. How the light inside of him dwindled and flicked out in a matter of seconds.
It was like he was fourteen again, heading into battle for the boy he loved. He brought Percy an army, he won him the war. In the end he was only disappointed. He'd lost to Annabeth. he should have expected this, of course he never had a chance with him.
With nothing else to hold onto, he sunk into the shadows.
The coldness of his father's castle welcomed him. His room in the place was large and mainly empty. The softness of the bed sheets engulfed him for the next few days.
He didn't leave the room, he barely ate or slept. The hole in his stomach only got bigger, the sinking of his chest only got worse. The feeling of helplessness fully immersed him, he watched almost a week go by. A week closer to the day Percy Jackson would marry someone else. I did everything for him. For so, so long.
It was also a week when he heard a knock on his door. He didn't answer. Why would he? There was another knock before the door was pushed open.
Nico barely bothered to look over the covers, the small sliver he could see of the undead servant was enough to figure it wasn't important.
"Leave." He said, his voice gravelly. He hadn't talked in a week, the only sounds he made were the weak sobs of pure despair.
"Your father required your presence." This caught Nico's attention. His dad tried, Nico knew this. Hades had been trying since Nico was fourteen, but Nico figured Hades wouldn't notice if he was in there or not.
Despite his better judgment, Nico sniffed once and pushed himself up from his bed. He nodded to the servant, who scurried off, and Nico hesitated for a moment before leaving the comfort of his room.
The winding hallways of Hades castle were confusing, but after a few years of practice he knew them as well as anything. He quickly made his way to the throne room, passing portraits and hung candles. finding his father sitting there. The chair next to him was empty, Nico thought of the summer back in the living world. Of the sun, of the beach at camp, of Percy standing there trying to get him to 'just swim, Nico. You aren't made of flour, are you?'.
Gods, why couldn't he just get over it?
"I was wanted, father?" Nico tried to make his voice sound stable, though it just barely trembled as he looked up at his father.
"I know of your pain, Nico." His father's voice had always been cold, but now just the smallest hint of pain seeped through the cracks. Nico cringed at the statement. He knew, of course he knew. A silence fell over them for a long moment before Hades spoke again, "Do you love him?"
Nico almost took a step back, does he love percy jackson? He averted his eyes from the gaze of his father. He must. Of course he loved him, he couldn't imagine a world where he didn't. He couldn't imagine any version of himself being okay if Percy Jackson married Annabeth Chase.
The silence must've said enough.
"Son, do you want him?"
Nico felt the pit open in his stomach. He knew he did.
Slowly, painfully, he nodded. Yes. Yes he did. More than anything.
"Come here, son."
As his father told him what to do next, Nico felt a cold sense of dread. A horrible feeling, the knowledge that it was horrible to even consider it. And the worst feeling of knowing he wanted to. He wanted it more than he'd ever like to admit.
-----
Percy was barely awake when he heard the knock on his door. He was exhausted. He'd been exhausted since he was twelve, maybe it was catching up to him
He groaned as he pushed himself up off the coach, he wasn't expecting a package. Part of him wondered if it was Annabeth, a part of him hoped it wasn't.
As much as he hated it, he had started to dread being with her. Was she great? Sure. Did he love her? He thought so. He really thought he did. Though, lately, he had started to question it.
It started small, a twinge of irritation when she'd show up announced. The way he didn't always want to kiss her. The way he felt when a pretty boy smiled at him. The guilt when his heart stuttered when he thought that pretty boy was Nico di Angelo.
Maybe things were just getting...old. Maybe they needed something new.
Then she asked him to marry her.
He wanted to say no, he just... didn't wanna deal with her after the fact.
Percy was relieved when it wasn't Annabeth, which he hated himself for.
He hated himself more when his ears reddened when he saw Nico di Angelo holding a bottle of wine.
It's a solid five seconds of silence before Nico shoves the bottle into Percy's hands.
"Congrats." Nico tried to smile, but there was an air of anxiety surrounding him.
"..thanks." Percy took it, not bothering to read the label, "do you...wanna come in?" He stepped away from the door.
Nico didn't bother nodding, he just stepped into the apartment, letting Percy guide him to the living room. It was vaguely messy, as expected, but Nico sat on the couch. All he had to do was get Percy to drink some wine....
---------
Nico knew it was wrong. He knew his father put something in the wine. He told Nico to not drink a drop. Of course Nico made him promise it was safe for Percy, he didn't want to hurt him. His father said of course not, a little lotus never hurt anyone.
He knew it was wrong when he showed up there, pretending to be happy for him. He knew it was wrong when he asked Percy about Annabeth. He knew it was wrong when three glasses in Percy said he was worried about marrying her.
He knew it. Nico was right, of course.
".. What do you mean you're worried about marrying her?"
"I... I don't know. We started dating at fifteen, she was my first girlfriend ever and... I don't know.. maybe l want something...well.. new."
Nico could barely hide the small smile that broke out on his face.
"That's okay...you dont have to be with her, you know?"
"But it would ruin just about everything."
"..Then ruin it."
Percy's eyes started to drift shut, only to be forced open again, a denial of the lotus petals. Percy shook this head.
He felt horrible when Percy finally spoke up.
"I don't know why I'm telling you this. I shouldn't be. You should...you should go." His head was tilted down, resting on his left hand.
Nico sighed, pursed his lips, slight tremors in his hands as he pushed himself up from the coach. Percy looked up for a moment, gods why was he so tired?
A small bubble of confusion rose in his chest as nico stood over him, but his eyes were already shut when he felt the press of Nico's lip over his.
-----
He woke up with someone pressed into his chest, dark hair nuzzled into his neck. His vision was burry, but he could make out a unfamiliar room and the drop of wine sliding down his face. He could taste pomegranate in his mouth.
"I'm so sorry..." The small voice whispered, though Percy didn't quite understand, slipping back into a dead sleep. He was blisfully unware of Nico crying into his neck, the pomegranate wine that had slid down his throat, and the fact that he was now forever bound to the land of the dead.
I lied my name isn't actually river. My real name is nico di Angelo and surprise! The greek gods are real! also there may or not be some sort of fucked-up Harpy trying to kill you so i think you should come with me..... Yes, that is a zombie... No, of course he won't hurt you. Hes driving.
Cutest thing ever
Percy: Hey, Nico. Can you watch the baby for a second while I run to pick up Annabeth from work?
Nico: You want me to watch your kid?
Percy: Yeah. It’ll take like 20 minutes.
Nico: But what if she cries or something.
Percy: If you need anything just call me.
Nico: Do I talk to her or…
Percy: She’s a year old, Nico. Just hang out with her, maybe read to her. She loves books.
Nico: Okay.
Percy: Thanks, Nico. You’re a life saver!
*Percy kisses his daughter’s head and leaves.*
Nico: *coming to sit by the baby* So… you like books? My boyfriend likes books too. Medical books, but still.
Percabeth baby: Boo!
Nico: I’m guessing that’s book. *grabs book of ocean animals* Book?
Baby: Boo!
Nico: Cool. Fish book it is then.
Baby:*showing Nico her fish stuffy* Fish.
Nico: *nodding* That is a fish.
Baby: *claps*
Nico: *fighting a smile* You are your parents daughter, kid.
Baby: *gives Nico the fish and claps*
Nico: *now genuinely smiling* Yep. Your parents daughter.
the day that the lotus hotel episode of the percy jackson series airs gay people online will become more annoying than ever before. people zooming in on grainy images of extras. people screaming when they see someone with dark hair. the specter of nico di angelo shall be upon us
