Nico di Angelo has learned to survive by disappearing. He wears his shadows like armor and keeps everyone, even Will, at a safe distance. No one knows about the late-night panic attacks, the silent scars he leaves hidden beneath long sleeves, the feeling that he's always one step away from being left behind again. Not even Will - the boy he trusts most. Will Solace is sunshine to the world, a healer, a leader, the rock everyone leans on. But no one sees the cracks. Not the guilt of the siblings he couldn't save. Not the pressure to be "fine" all the time. And definitely not the way he pushes himself past breaking just to feel worthy of the love he gives so freely. They're in love, yes - but they're also in pain. And the longer they keep their walls up, the more those walls start to crush them both. ⚠️ This story contains themes of depression, anxiety, isolation, self-loathing, emotional trauma, burnout, survivor's guilt, intrusive thoughts, self-harm, religious trauma, grief, and mentions of death. Please take care of yourself and read with caution. 💛🖤

*Trigger Warning: Mention of su!cide, implied murder, and the foster system* Nico has had nightmares all his life. Nightmares of his family getting hurt. Nightmares of himself getting hurt. Of people running away. Of people dying. But he was always able to tell people about them. He was always able to get comfort. Until his life turned into an actual nightmare. He tried to tell someone. He tried to get his uncle put in prison for what he did, but he can't, and now his mother is dead, and his sister killed herself, and his father killed himself, and he's being put into foster care in Gotham city of all places, and his only hope of not doing that is to live with his distant family, who he'd never heard of before now. Traumatized, done with everything, and ready to run away, Nico joins the Waynes at the Manor. His whole family is gone. He isn't ready to deal with more. *** *** *** *Trigger Warnings will be in the chapters, there's gonna be a lot, just be warned* Cover isn't mine, I don't own any PJO, HOO, or DC plot or characters

I couldn't find anymore Nico Di Angelo in Gotham stories, so here it is. also, all the side chapters are technically part of the main story, and take place between two main chapters. ⚔️🌙 Fic Summary: "Crown of Shadows" 🌙🦇 When Nico di Angelo, son of Hades and Ghost King of the Underworld, arrives in Gotham to investigate a wave of missing unclaimed demigods, he expects monsters-not the Batfamily. After a chaotic first encounter during a cyclops battle, Nico reluctantly allies with Bruce Wayne and his vigilante sons-Dick, Jason, Tim, and Damian. As more demigods arrive in Gotham, including Will Solace, Stella Jackson, and others from Camp Half-Blood, the Batfam slowly learns Nico's secret... and starts accepting him as one of their own. But beneath Gotham lies an ancient secret: the Crown of the Dead Prince, a divine artifact that starts merging with Nico, awakening long-lost powers and memories of past Ghost Kings. A shadowy group called the Hollow Court, led by a resurrected Octavian, is trying to sever demigods' ties to Olympus using anti-magic ichor-tech. While facing drakons, cursed temples, divine trials, and reluctant Justice League scrutiny, Nico battles not just monsters-but fear of being loved. Meanwhile, romance blooms everywhere: In the climactic Battle of Mount Etna, the demigods and Batfam unite to defeat the Hollow Court, with Nico embracing both his Crown and his humanity. Afterwards, life slowly rebuilds-with chaotic breakfast scenes, underworld tea parties, and way too many rooftop proposals. The story ends with the Batfam and demigods living, loving, and occasionally stabbing each other with affection... because family, after all, is complicated. ---------------------- Solangelo Dick x Wally, Jason x Roy, Tim x Bernard all get moments of love, chaos, and Batfam-level interrogation

Sequel to "Crowns and Chains." Will has returned to the Aureole Kingdom, but peace is far from attainable. Can enemies be defeated and inner demons be conquered, even at a grievous cost? Let me know if I write anything incorrect or offensive about dissociation as I do not dissociate.

Will is prince of the Aureole kingdom, a place of light-benders that boasts the best of healers. Nico is an assassin who serves the Shade kingdom, a place of shadow-benders with the most skilled fighters. And when their paths cross, their lives will change forever. Let me know if I write anything incorrect or offensive about dissociation as I do not dissociate.

Sequel to "Into The Dark" on my old account @solangelo_sun_moon Will has been forced into a marriage with the very person who wreaked havoc on his life. But as the stakes grow higher and higher, can he find the courage to fight back and stay at Nico's side?

Nico di Angelo is a Guardian--a near-human species that has gone nearly extinct and is hardly known outside of minority religious circles. In the nearby village, he's known instead as the Monster due to the king's relentless hunting teams sent to find and kill the strange entity. Will Solace is having a particularly bad day, which is why he's desperate enough for companionship that he's spent the last few agonizing hours talking to the person who's been stalking him. But despite Will's desire for a friend, the truth about his stalker makes him rethink everything. Nico and Will meet, accuse each other of trying to kill each other, and slowly learn to lean on each other. The only problem with their deepening relationship: Guardians and humans have a sacred pact to prevent war between species--and rule number one is that there shall be no romance between Guardians and humans. Together, they embark on a perilous journey, battling against the odds to defy fate and carve out a future where acceptance and understanding can flourish amidst the shadows of intolerance. - Currently under edits. - I KNOW IM SUPPOSED TO BE UPDATING MY OTHER STORIES BUT I LIKE THIS ONE.

Everyone in town knows about the sea monster. Every night, he goes into town to find his prey. He lures them in with his voice, only to bring them back to the ocean, to eat them. Few survive this, and the people who do, they lose their mind, like they were cursed. You can only gather from them that he was beautiful, his voice was like an angel's, and that when he took you into the ocean, he became a monster. He only hunted young men, women, teens, and the occasional twelve-year old. It was terrifying, because the people had no way to stop him. Every night, someone would go missing, or come back insane. They knew he lived in the ocean, and when people tried to bomb the area where they thought the monster lived, they would either be cursed, or just eaten by the sea monster himself. And the people who came back insane, they would always wander over the fact that the monster had not even a scratch on him. Teens, young men and women would fear for their lives, and lock themselves in their houses at night. But only one person refused to hide, either in bravery or utter stupidity. That person was Will Solace. So basically, this story is based on the cover art of the book. I just thought it was such a great idea and wanted to put it to story. I saw another person do this and they used the same cover art, and I hope you guys like my version! I, personally very much like it and hope you guys do to! (I don't own any of the characters or art work that appears in this fanfic. All of the characters belong to Rick Riordan.)

The Ghost King is a supervillain, and he's searching for something. Nico di Angelo is a villain to the whole city; the media is on his back daily, and police chases have become a regular part of his life. If he was even a little more spiteful, he would start committing real crimes-not just the minor break-ins he's been charged with so far. The Ghost King is a supervillain, but luckily there's a superhero here to protect you from him. Sunburst spends his days chasing after the Ghost King, cursing the Ghost King for making him skip school to go defend the city, and bickering with the Ghost King. Will Solace is sure that he's going to be the one to finally get the bounty for the Ghost King. The Ghost King is a supervillain. So why won't he hurt anyone? The Ghost King is the city's only supervillain--so who is this new villain, and how can Nico and Will survive them? The Ghost King is a supervillain, which is why Will Solace is feeling a little bit ridiculous to be blushing when they touch. Maybe the Ghost King isn't as much of a supervillain as Will Solace originally assumed-and maybe the best way to defeat the new villain in the city is to work with his ex-enemy. - Edited January and February 2024.

Book 2 of the 'Demigod in Gotham' Series When Nico moved to Gotham, all he wanted was to do good. He never asked to be adopted by Bruce Wayne. He never asked for Slade to come after him. He never asked to die. And more than anything else, he never asked to be revived. ---------- "I excused what you did with Slade, but you cannot continue to break rules and put yourself at risk-" Nico laughed. "Excused? You excused it?" Nightwing approached the table, probably knowing where this was going. "Demo-" The demigod ignored his brother. "Slade wanted to sell my people as slaves. Not only did he deserve to die, but he needed to." Bruce stood up, his hands on the table. "Slade's death was not your call and I respected that-" "No, you were forced to accept it because you couldn't stop me. You wanted me to spare him, just like every single one of your sons have up until that point, but how did that work out? When did Slade ever face justice for all the things he had done after they spared him? He deserved to die for everything he had done!" "It is not our place-" "Then thank f*ck that it actually was my place to do what you never could!" Bruce clenched his jaw. They stared at each other for a long moment before Bruce finally said, "We fight for justice, not vengeance. If you allow yourself to sink down to that place, you may never come back. It will kill you if you keep on fighting to avenge things that have not even happened yet" Nico stared at his father, the rage that had been boiling underneath his skin every second since he had woken up back in November began to break through the surface. He took off his domino mask and tossed it onto the table, making sure that Bruce had to look at his eyes-- the ones that no longer resembled the fourteen year old that Bruce had once asked to join his family. "Good thing I already died then." --------- daily updates @ 12:15 am EST (starting April 8th )
