[ 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 ]

aw come on. usually I don't buy into the soulmate thing but I think there's someone out there for everyone, you know?

[deathkid]

maybe. maybe not. do you think there's someone out there for you?

[brightline]

I guess, I mean I've dated a LOT and I've never found someone like, long term because there's only four people alive who really get me. but if this place is possible and so are aliens and space travel and magic, then yeah, there probably is

[deathkid]

that's really optimistic.
honestly, i've never even dated.
i loved someone once, but he didn't love me back
now i realize he's not really my type.

I didn't have time for it most of my teenage years, you know? war and all.

[Marco doesn't even bat an eyelash at Nico saying he's into dudes.]

I don't think I've ever been in love. I've definitely loved people, but not been in love

[deathkid]

some of my friends back home
have still managed
despite the various wars we fought.

you're lucky. love kinda sucks sometimes
