Previously in Fused Shadows: Man, this is going to be a long conversation.
Nico's POV
The library was quiet, I had a book open in front of me but I wasn't really reading it. I was thinking about the fact that everyone in this goddamn house seems to want to ruin my life with... ugh feelings.
The fact that Alfred saw my scars was another thing on my mind... and that Damian knows about Percy... Well, I guess everyone knows about him now.
Shit.
This is so scuffed.
I sighed and let my head fall on the opened book with a hard thud. Letting my eyes fall close, I started to focus on Dick and his 'friends' conversation. Just as I was about to go into full concentration mode, I was jolted up by the presence of someone in the room.
I stayed put but still on edge as the person moved through the vast floor space to the couch I was sitting on.
"What are you doing?" Asked the voice of 'Kon'.
I hummed and answered the obvious, "Reading..."
I got a snort in return.
"With your face in the book... and with it upside-down?" he answered with sass.
I huffed, and lifted my head leaning back on the chair, and crossed my arms, "Yea..."
Before I knew it, he had shuffled his way to the other chair with his lips pressed into a thin line.
I think he was trying to politely smile at me but he ended up looking like that... uh one cat image-
What did Leo say the name of that picture was? Humble cat... Polite cat...?
"So... You like sport...?" I was startled out of my thoughts by that halfhearted conversation starter.
This time I snorted and shook my head, "No... not my... Uh, not my forte... How about you?"
I winced as I responded to the weak conversation, Gods this was a mess.
He let out a small laugh either out of pity or politeness, "I don't mind them..."
We lapsed into silence, not uncomfortable or anything just... stale.
"Not to sound rude... and pardon me if I do but is there a reason that you are here?" I asked tilting my head slightly then backtracked, "In the library, I mean... with me."
There was a beat of silence again.
"I... Well, I don't know if I am being honest."
I blinked and thought about his answer, he was lying.
Wait how- OH... Yea my blessings, I almost forgot about them I have been doing things normally for so long.
I looked at him and concentrated, using my blessing from Aphrodite I might be able to-
...oh.
That is why he was here?
I cleared my throat and was about to speak when the door opened.
I turned and smiled slightly, "Hey Tim, how was work?"
