PJO One-Shots (Fluff)

Ghost King vs. The Toaster (Solangelo)

After Nico finally graduated from high school, he decided to move to Camp Jupiter to go to college. He enjoyed being closer to his sister, it also meant that he could finally move in with his boyfriend. Will was only biologically older than him by a year, even though technically Nico was supposed to be in his late 80's by now. It was common for demigods to not be good with modern technology, but Nico was a specially bad case. Since he was from the late 1930s, he was often left clueless when it came with technology. He also had been very young around the time, so even the basic appliances that were around in his time, he didn't remember them. One example of this was Nico's first day of college, well the morning of when he was going. Will had made breakfast for him that day, to ease him back into the early schedule of his classes. Nico sat at the counter as Will pushed a white plate in front of him, scrambled eggs and bacon. "Toast is almost done," he told Nico before his phone started to vibrate from the living room. Nico got up and walked to the coffee machine, the one thing he could make work. Next, to it, there was a medium-sized, red metal box. When he put his hand over it, he could feel the heat come off of it. There were four slots, two of them had bread in them. Will had explained this to him, it was a toaster, though he never explained how he got the bread out of the machine. Nico didn't have to wait long for an answer. Right as he put his face closer to the top, the bread popped out. He jerked back with a yelp, then slipped on a kitchen rag that had been dropped on the floor. As expected, Will ran into the kitchen to see what happened. He looked at Nico, then at the toaster, then back at Nico. It didn't take him long to figure what happened, he started to laugh. Nico picked himself up and glared at Will, this only made him laugh harder. A confused sound came from the phone in Will's hand, he must still be on the line. "Hold on, I'll talk to you later." Will hung up the phone. "Are you okay ?" Nico nodded, his face was bright pink from embarrassment. "Good, now you can explain to me how on earth did you get scared by the toaster of all things." Nico would never live this down. It turned out that it was Frank on the phone with Will, Hazel had asked him to call Will to check up on Nico since their her or Nico owned a cell phone. Guess children of the underworld and technology just don't mix.
