Anubico Oneshots based on prompts

"He was definitely a good influence."

Prompt: Have Nico introduce Anubis to Will.

Nico glanced over at his boyfriend.

Anubis walked beside him, his hand firmly clasping the demigod's. He'd been looking forward, but turned his head to give Nico a smile as he noticed him looking.

"What?" he asked, his left eyebrow raised.

What, he says. Nico rolled his eyes. "You're meeting one of my best friends, and don't think I haven't noticed that slightly irritated look you have when I mention him."

Anubis' eyebrow twitched, "What are you insinuating? You think I'm jealous of him? Well, to be fair, maybe I am. He's known you longer than me."

Nico chuckled, it was just like Anubis to bluntly admit he felt jealous. He squeezed the god's hand and leaned over to give him a chaste kiss.

"I think you'll like him. After all, he's the one that got me out of my shell, if you don't count Jason."

"Maybe I'll like him, maybe I won't. Let's go and we'll find out."

Nico scoffed.

"And that one time by the lake- hey, Nico, you remember that right? The time those nymphs threw you a party and you refused to participate? They were grumpy for days, hilarious."

Nico smiled and almost shuddered at the memory, "Please don't remind me, they threw water at me during those days. My jacket did not like that."

Will threw his head back and laughed, "Yeah, you would care about that jacket, wouldn't you."

The son of Hades cast a sideways glance at Anubis and found him actually smiling.

The meeting went surprisingly well.

They had shadow-travelled to Camp Half-Blood and met up with Will by the Apollo-Cabin. The blond had been ecstatic and gushed about how he'd wanted to meet Anubis for so long.

The god had been polite, if not a little cautious, and had smiled and told Will he'd wanted to meet him as well.

Nico hadn't really needed to do anything. As soon as introductions were over, Will had thrown himself into the stories from Camp Half-Blood. His hands were all over the place as he spoke and he would sometimes lean over to slap a hand on the god's shoulder in that Will-doesn't-know-personal-space manner.

Anubis didn't seem to mind and listened patiently to the stories. He even told Will some of his own experiences, both with Nico and without.

All in all, it was better than Nico could've dreamed of. He'd felt nervous about introducing the two, he wasn't sure what he'd do if the disliked each other. Now he wouldn't have to worry. It felt as if a huge weight was lifted off his chest.

Will brought him out of his thoughts, "Nico, how come you never told me about the parties you two throw in graveyards?"

Nico raised his eyes, taken aback, "Parties? In graveyards?"

"Yeah, Anubis just told me about the wild raves you throw with the skeletons."

The son of Hades looked at Anubis. The god was keeping his mouth firmly shut, but Nico could see he was suppressing a smile.

"Will, we don't throw 'raves' or any other sort of party in graveyards. Please don't believe everything Anubis tells you. Just between us," Nico leaned closer to Will and cupped a hand beside his own mouth. "He's terrible at jokes."

The god beside him poked him in the side, "I heard that."

They ate dinner, at separate tables, and met up afterwards to continue their talk.

Anubis told Will about his meeting with Hades and some of his adventures with the magicians. The son of Apollo seemed very fascinated by the Egyptian gods and asked Anubis a million questions, to which the god retorted with his own questions about Apollo and what abilities Will had inherited.

Nico laughed at their antics and rolled his eyes at the exaggerated way Will spoke of their quests.

"This one time, Nico chopped an entire dragon to pieces," the healer said, his eyes shining.

The Ghost King rolled hies eyes, "It wasn't a dragon, and I hardly chopped it, I only sliced its throat."

Will waved his comment away, "Pfft, details aren't important."

The sky above them was slowly darkening to a deep shade of blue and they decided to bid each other fare well.

The couple walked Will to his cabin and said good bye (Will made them promise to visit often), leaving Camp Half-Blood in favour of walking along the streets in Venice.

Nico grasped the god's hand and beamed at him. "So, what do you think?"

Anubis smirked, "What do I think about what?"

The demigod slapped his arm.

 "I'm kidding." A pause, "I like him. He was definitely a good influence on you."

Nico grinned, "You think so?"

"I know so. From what he told me, you were a moody teenager with daddy-issues."

"Wha- Hey!" Nico elbowed him, earning a laugh and an elbow to the side.

Whoop! Another chapter up just two days later! I know these chapters are quite short, but I feel like shorter chapters don't take that much time (Obviously) :) I hope it's not too irritating :D

As always, thank you all for prompts and comments/reviews :D
