"The very thought of you and I forget to do/
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do/
I'm living in a kind of daydream, I'm happy as a king/
And foolish though it may seem, to me that's everything."

During the summer of 1942, a blossoming love between college students Nico di Angelo and Percy Jackson turns tumultuous once Percy is caught in the draft to serve in the war. Through letters and grainy photographs, they keep their love for each other intact, but at a steep risk. Percy is determined to return home to Nico, but in this man-against-man rampage, he is not so sure he can.

꧁The title is based off of Al Bowlly's song "The Very Thought of You," which was released in 1934. It is one of my favorite songs of the era.꧂

Color. It's something our brain makes up. It doesn't really exist. So how come everyone made a big fuss about meeting and touching their soulmate so they could see in color? After all, what's so bad about black and white? Aren't they colors too? That's what Nico thought anyway. When he was younger he had tried to imagine a new color but had never been able to. His sister had died seeing the world in black in white. Nico didn't see the point of color. That is, until he touches his soulmate and sees what he's been missing out on... Edited January 2024.
