Leo never remembered receiving this much attention.
He hadn't expected he had been proclaimed dead after Gaea was destroyed, though he should have.
He hadn't realized how long he had been 'dead' or, asleep, technically both. It had been three long days, and after the second, the whole camp just kinda assumed he was dead. After all, they had seen the explosion.
If only he could have interrupted his own funeral they gave him like Percy did. That would've been hilarious.
What really happened was just as good. Jason and the entire camp swarmed him and Calypso, and he even saw Nico in the crowd, dragged along by Jason.
Leo grinned. He was glad the guy was finally opening up, although Leo totally felt him. Organic life forms just weren't his thing.
Besides Calypso, of course.
They made a game of confusing the other campers; acting like they absolutely hated each other, yelling at each other, the like, and then occasionally kissing each other instead. Piper filled them in on all the mixed rumors flying around- that they were dating, that Leo had found her on an abandoned island and somehow was indebted to save her despite the fact that she hated him, et cetera.
Well, technically, it was both of those. And he could thank Khione for that, completely sarcasm free.
Calypso, bless her, had managed to convince him to help out in the infirmary, since her Calypso magic could do wonders for the massive amounts of injuries from the war. Also, Leo helped fix equipment and build other machines.
Of course, the healers forced him to get checked up, where he was minority scolded on the fact that he had literally died, came back to life on a flying dragon after defeating Gaea, and scared the camp half out of their wits.
Helping out in the infirmary was kind of annoying, since he was nearly attacked by a healer every time he got so much as a bruise, but it had his advantages.
Because he could check out all the machinery and other like-magical things in the infirmary, he could keep an eye on how things with Nico di Angelo and Will Solace were rolling out.
Even better, he had more information to bribe Jason and Percy with- he knew how much the two were spying on the two. They weren't very subtle about it, but maybe that was just Leo.
As for Jason, when he wasn't spying on the infirmary, he was working on temples to build with Annabeth, because he promised some deity that he would, or something.
Other than that, there was Calypso. Again. Okay, okay, Leo's kind of obsessed with her. Who wouldn't be? She's gorgeous. And basically like, everything else. Especially everything else.
Of course, she was still a little cold around Percy, but they had gotten better. Usually it was because Leo squeezed her hand or something. Or at least, that's what Leo would like to think. Probably wasn't entirely true.
Overall, Leo had a lot of fun after the war, glad to finally relax.
