[ sitting in his room in marco's mansion with a record player belting out blitzkrieg bop. not so loud that he can't be heard, but it's clearly cranked up a little. nico, meanwhile, is sharpening his sword and looking a little put out. after having his memories shared with multiple people, he's not feeling too sociable. but he can hear jason grace in his head telling him he needs to get out of the house and talk to people. ]

Eight months. I've been here eight months and there's still no way to get back to camp. Back... home.

[ the fact he calls camp home now truly reveals just how much he misses his friends and family. ]

This place isn't too bad, but being the only demigod around here kind of sucks. I don't know how many people around here get homesick, but I would certainly accept even some of the gods, Greek gods showing up. No offense to you Norse types.

[ he picks up his sword and sets his thumb against the edge, cheering up a little as it nicks the skin, causing blood to well to the surface. sucking on his thumb, he sets the sword aside. ]

Whatever. Anyone want to go outside quarantine and kill some stuff?

....that's ten kinds of fucked up. What did you do to pass the time?

I didn't really notice time passing. It seemed like I was only there a week, to be honest.

That had to be trippy coming out of it.

[ He finished his drink and refilled the glass from the bottle he had requested to be left with them.]

Anyway, your doing good right? [ Feelings are so hard.]

Yeah, it was. Everything was confusing. I mean, I went into the hotel in the 30s? I think? It was strange coming out.

[ he watches jason pour himself some more whiskey, frowning minutely. ]

I think so. I just... need to figure out how I feel about Loki. I think he's still hung up on Tony anyway, so it's hard...

[ Jason just nodded unsure what else to say to the mystery of Nico and the magical hotel but he still found it curious. He nodded again as he took a drink from his glass.]

It'll take time, remember that life's not like books. No one just falls in love like that. And yeah. he's still hung up, I know that, so be careful but be understanding. That's what I was doing. [ He shrugged some.] You don't just move on easily from that kind of connection, but, maybe you could be what he needs. Who knows.

[ sipping his own drink a bit more sedately ( he's probably got a better limit than jason, but he doesn't want to test it ), nico stares down into the amber depths. ]

The first time, I fell in love at first glance. But I know what you mean. It's hard getting over that and I want to make sure I give him plenty of time.

I think we all had one of those. Mine's name was Renee. [ He gave a slight grin.] She didn't pay me any attention, looking back I don't blame her but, I used to think the sun rose and set on her. Getting over those things is all part of growing up.

[ he reached over patting Nico on the shoulder shaking his head some before taking another sip.]

I wish you both all of the luck, and I've been trying to think of a way to say this to either make a embarrassing joke or just make it my ending line, but I feel like if I don't tell you something you might be mad at me later, so... [ he spoke waiting for confirmation.]

Pretty sure yours wasn't a guy, though. [ somewhat ruefully as he gulps his drink down and orders another. ] That was... hard accepting.

[ he sighs slightly and then looks up at jason, curious about what the other man is going on about. ]

I doubt I could be mad at you, but go ahead. Tell me.

You're right, but a street rat crushing on a billionaire's little princess is pretty bad to. [ He shrugged some.] I still want to break Cupid's nose for outting you. The guys a douche-bag.

[ Well. There was a way. Jason finished his glass and started to pour another.] I don't know, a lot of people have said that. A lot of people who'd like to burn me at the stake, but yeah, Loki was the first guy I was with. So, yeah I get questioning your sexuality... at least these days anyway... and the powder keg your standing on.

[ He when he finished speaking he lifted the glass again but didn't drink from it yet.]

[ nico's about to respond to the princess part when jason decides to drop a bomb. sputtering in to his refill, nico almost chokes and looks up at jason with surprise evident in his features. ]

You- You slept with Loki? Styx, Jason, here I am talking about maybe having a relationship with him and you drop that Greek fire? [ there's no anger in his tone, merely shock and maybe a slight bit of approval. ] So... do you... like him?

[ Jason meanwhile takes his drink and shrugs like it's nothing. Turning to offer an awkward smile to Nico.]

That Greek fire? [ He asked in Italian just to be a dork. He wanted to break Nico's brain now that he saw he could... but just a little. He had to tease some it helped him deal with things, humor was his defense.]

He's one of my best friends. Just like you. We'll leave it at that. Don't worry about it, Niks.

[ scowling a little with flushed cheeks, nico huffs. ]

Don't sass me, young man. [ also in italian, given it's his native language. he huffs again and rolls his eyes. ]

I mean, I guess I wouldn't mind if you did. I don't have any claim over him.

I'm physically older than you, old man.

[ He replied just as amused. as he had been. It was fun having someone to sass.]

I burned that bridge, Niks. Like I said, were friends.

[ laughing, nico merely shook his head. if jason had burned that bridge, that was fine with him. he's just glad he won't potentially lose a friend over the whole thing. ]

I didn't know you could speak Italian.

It never came up. I can speak a lot of languages. I just favor the romance languages.

[ He explained with a shrug like it was nothing. Lifting his glass to drain more of it.]

Huh. That's pretty cool, though. I personally speak Latin and Greek too.

[ there's so much about jason, he realizes, that he doesn't know. it makes things interesting when he learns something new about him. ]

I could never wrap my head around either, but I wanted to. I always thought it would be cool to peak into one of those latin bibles and see what they really say.

[ he shrugged some.]

I needed practical languages though, thing's I could use while I work.

It's practical for me, considering what I am. My half-sister is Roman and I'm the Greek ambassador for Hades' Roman form, Pluto. So Latin is kind of necessary.

[ a beat as he gulps his drink. ]

I could try teaching you, if you want?

Well, yeah in that context that makes a lot of sense.

[ He lifted the bottle to refill his glass again, offering the bottle Nico's way.]

I'd like that, sounds like fun.

[ shaking his head, ( he'll stick with his rum and coke ), he gives jason a look. ]

Sure. I don't know how good of a teacher I'll be, but we can definitely give it a try.

I'm a good student. If you want to make it even, I could teach you to drive.

[ He offered as he lifted his glass again to take a drink of what he had poured.]

That'd be awesome! I'd love to learn how to drive. Then I wouldn't have to summon my chauffeur when I need to go somewhere.

Just figure out if you want to learn to ride a motorcycle or drive a car, I can teach you both and how to repair either. It's helpful.

[ He beamed a little since he loved showing off, and it would be a chance to do just that. He sat the glass down once it was empty and crossed his arms looking to Nico.]

Can you picture me riding a motorcyle? That would be badass.

[ finishes his own drink, setting the glass down as he grins at jason. ]

So we're good?

Oh fuck yes you would, get you in some good leather pants and the right bike. Shit people would love you.

[ he nodded then.]

Yeah, we're good. Can you take me back to my bike?
