Thinking about the parallels between Solangelo and Patrochilles (specifically The Song of Achilles's version), because turns out it's so much more interesting than i first thought it'd be. Cause at first glance, we obviously think Will = Achilles (gold and sunshine aesthetic, extremely lovable, charismatic, optimistic, trusting, admired) and Nico = Patroclus (darker aesthetic, soft, sensitive, shy, abandoned and rejected backstory, very strong emotions). And it does fit pretty well, at least for their personalities and physical characteristics.
But thematically, it's the complete opposite, which is what makes it so interesting for me. Will is the one (like Patroclus) who chooses to heal instead of fighting, who desperatly wants to save EVERYONE, who needs to learn to take care of himself before taking care of anybody else. Meanwhile, Nico is the one (like Achilles) who is this insanely powerful, mythical fighter who could absolutly destroy anything or anyone in his path, who always only rely on instincts (even though they have been wrong many times before and he should really learn to listen to other people's inputs), who doesn't always think of the consequences his actions might bring, and who would and actually has gone berserk from despair over the death of a loved one.
Yes, Solangelo parallels Patrochilles, but it's not necessarily how you think, and that just opened up a whole bunch of new story possibilities in my mind...

trying to figure out if people are drawing Will Solace, new Percy, or occasionally Jason Grace is becoming a real challenge

Headcanon that Lee Fletcher had shoulder length blond hair and blue eyes, and after the battle of the laybrinth, Will started growing out his hair as a sort of tribute to Lee
He then cut it off once people started accidentally calling him Lee.

PERCY JACKSON FANS HEAR ME OUT!
It’s season 3 of the PJO show AKA The Titans Curse. Percy (Walker) is sitting in front of Aphordite Goddess of Love and Beauty who just so happens to look like an older version of his best friend Annabeth (Leah) totally unrelated we’re sure.
Then he blinks and the beautiful woman in front of him changes….now she has brown hair and blue eyes she smiles, its Alexandria Daddario movie Annabeth. Just a split second cameo and then she’s gone.
Now a different woman is sitting in front of Percy, a woman with blonde hair and hazel eyes Kristen Stokes Lightning Thief Musical Annabeth. She shifts and changes again.
The final and last woman we see before Percy has curly blonde hair, tanned skin, and stormy grey eyes it’s book Annabeth.
Percy doesn’t realise it but we do. The Goddess of love shows him every version of the girl he loves from every universe he loves her in. It’s beautiful, it’s cinema, it needs to happen.

If you're darker than a certain shade you can't have justified rage because you were hurt, all your rage is 'savage' and 'primal'. You're only allowed to cry and die, never strike back

"oh, i hate bianca!! she left nico!!"
no. nonononono. you don't get it. how would YOU feel if all your life, you've been nothing but an older sibling?? nothing but a caretaker?? bianca yearned to feel part of something, to be needed and wanted. she didn't 'abandon' nico, she abandoned herself just to take care of him for so many years and when they finally found shelter (camp half-blood) she made the decision to finally do something for herself. let my baby rest, she didn't do anything wrong and i will go through hell defending her!!!!

"Hey, Will?"
"... hmm?"
"Name one child of Hades who was happy."
"..."
"You can't."
"I can't."
"... I'll tell you a secret."
"Tell me."
"I'm gonna be the first. Swear it."
"Why me?"
"Because, you're the reason."

I have this headcannon that the moment Nico realized his feelings for Percy was on Olympus when Percy calls him out by name in front of the Gods (and especially Hades) as a hero who deserves more recognition. I think that’s really what got him. Percy doesn’t praise anyone else by name in that speech, not even Annabeth, and this is right after Nico betrayed him and genuinely thought he had ruined their friendship forever. His brain would have broken I know it.
(Of course immediately after that Percy and Annabeth have the greatest underwater kiss of all time in front of the entire camp, probably including Nico. No wonder he leaves camp in such a hurry. Honestly it would make the complete 180 his attitude towards Percy takes in HOO make sense, like he goes from always excited to see him to barely making eye contact. Nico saved the world, fell in love, and got his heart broken all in one day)
