[ nico's sitting in his customary spot atop the roof of the communal housing, but he's got a pensive look on his face. around one finger appears to be a red string, which he's frowning at, not realizing no one else can see it. in his other hand is a milkshake which he sips now and then. ]

I guess we're still out of luck in finding a way back through the portal, even after everything... Has anyone ever tried to go back through it? I've been here like... six months and am ready to go home.

[ a pause as he tugs on the string around his pinkie and then curses in latin. ]

Has anyone tried the dumb soulmates stuff yet? I don't think it works. Mine doesn't seem to lead anywhere.



[ and in fact, it doesn't. nico's soulmate isn't in riverview, as far as he knows. if he has one at all. i intend for him to be soulmate-less, but if you want the string to go to your character, hit me up at alkahestic ]

I just can't resurrect the deceased. I can call on their spirits, but only for a short time.

[ like he'd tried and failed with his sister. his eyes go a little sad at that and he looks away. ]

I guess it could. I'm not sure if I should keep my hopes up, though.

[He shifts slightly hand going to his side to the parabatai rune beneath his shirt, thinking of Jace and Max.]

Sometimes the dead can be resurrected, but I think it takes more power than a mortal has. Or should have.

Hope is what keeps us going. I should have given up years ago. It's basically forbidden where I'm from, but I still hoped it could happen.

Yeah... Only the gods really have that power.

[ though he thinks of leo and how he seemed to have cheated death. he's still not sure how valdez managed, the very idea being seemingly impossible. ]

Hope... I kinda gave up on hope a while ago. But, if there's an answer somewhere...
