I think we as individuals moved on too fast from this.
Tumblr media
Pag 67,Chapter 10,of the Hidden Oracle. Basically when Apollo went to talk to Chiron,with Will and Meg,and met Nico before entering the Big House.
Apollo got scared of Nico. We are talking about a god –the Sun God that brought him and his sister to CHB– that turned mortal not even 24h ago. Also,I love how the first thing Nico tells him,after years of not seeing him,is literally "You are probably going to die",but without making it oblivious.
And "Nico di Angelo's father" ? Apollo personally knows Hades and knows what he is capable of,he had knew so for centuries,but here he address him with his son's connection to him. Apollo ain't scared of Hades because he is Hades,he is scared of Hades because he is Nico's dad and in that moment he was scared of Nico.
Nico had one line with his introduction (before his attention shifted on Will for the rest of the book-) and was still able to put fear in a newly-turned-human-God that he personally met years ago. We need to talk more about this.
