I redid this older comic I made for my storytelling class based on this post. Have some cute wlw love in your day.

It’s hard, if I had more free time I could make it so pretty, this is what I could throw together for the assignment.

In the Handbook, all Skug's siblings have fully-fleshed-out backstories and personalities, and they all get a little section about their personal history. I have kept almost nothing from the Grimoire's "Abrogate Raze" sections, because like 98% of that storyline sucked ass. Also, some names changed, either for brainrot reasons - "Fransic Catawampus" is the stupidest fucking name in the entire series, fight me Lardo - or to fit the personalities I gave them.

Nah see I don't get how the same people who bash the Weasleys are the same people who defend Malfoy and Snape, like how does that even work?

Like we can defend racists, purists, and classist bullie, but we have to draw the line at a kid who gets overwhelmed on the run from a mass murderer runs away for a split second and the. fights like hell to get back.

Where are people's priorities?

There's so many disastrous opportunities involving Nico's ability to go into someone's dream. I'm picturing shortly after HoO Nico travels to Will's dream one night to deliver a message that for whatever reason can't wait until morning

And Nico stops in surprise because Will is sitting there on a grassy hill, apparently in the middle of a picnic on a perfect day, overlooking Camp Half Blood. But he's with someone. Someone very familiar. Almost like they're on a date...

And Will looks over and sees him and is like, "Wow. Two Nico di Angelos? Ohhh, so it's gonna be one of those dreams, huh? Weird by now I'd be wearing less clothes-"

And Nico is like. "What? No! I'm not part of- of whatever this is... I'm here to deliver a message-" Nico couldn't even begin to process what Will just said for fear his head would implode in embarrassment.

"Wait. You're the real Nico?"

"Yeah, I can travel through dreams sometimes. Now-"

"Since when?? You've never told me that! Oh gods. Oh no. You have to leave."

"Fine. I'm just here to tell you-" And then the scene shifts.

And suddenly instead of a nice picnic they're standing in the woods, facing each other. Now wearing traditional greek robes, holding hands. All their friends are there, sitting in neat little rows, all dressed as if this were a wedding or something. Wait... The decorations... the tree arch... these were wedding robes. It was a wedding.

"Do you, William Andrew Solace, take Nico di Angelo to be your lawfully wedded husband?" Asks Chiron, wearing a tuxedo from the waist up.

"Uhhh," Will glances at Nico awkwardly.

And Nico is again frozen in shock. And definitely blushing. And his heart is pounding so hard he thinks he's going to wake up any second. He yanks his hands away from Will.

"Kayla needs you in the infirmary." He blurts out.

"You couldn't wake me up to tell me this??" Will hisses, face red as a tomato.

"There was an accident and I shadow travelled away with Kayla and Harley and I kind of passed out- This was the fastest way-"

"Fine. Can you wake me up from here? Slap me awake or whatever?"

"Uh, maybe." Nico looked around. Usually dreams weren't so... detailed. "The easiest way is to shock you out of the dream. Catch you by surprise."

"Okay, uh, summon a monster!"

"Well, now you'll be expecting that." Nico rolled his eyes. Will scowled in response.

"Do something! If Kayla's in trouble-"

So, Nico kisses him. Partially because he knew it'd shock Will. Partially to shut him up. Partially because he just really wanted to kiss Will Solace and he had the perfect excuse to do it and he had to go for it before he lost his nerve-

It worked. Will's face was frozen in the most adorable surprised expression and the dream dissipated.

Will awoke in his bunk with a gasp and rushed to the infirmary, not even bothering to put on his sandles.

"He kissed me he kissed me he kissed me- oh gods he saw my vision of us getting married. Oh gods I told him I dream about him not wearing clothes. But he kissed me he kissed me he actually kissed-"

Running high on adrenaline he was relieved to see Kayla and Harley were mostly fine. Kayla had twisted her ankle pretty badly, though. Nico was still passed out.

"How did you know we were in here?" Kayla eventually asked.

"Nico told me. He, uh, can visit dreams." Will said as he convinced Harley to drink a little more nectar. Poor kid was only nine years old, too exhausted to talk. He would no doubt fall asleep any second.

"Wait. But lately all your dreams have been..."

"Snippets of the future? About him? I know, Kayla."

"You're blushing so hard right now. Ohmygods wait. Did he walk in during one of those dreams?"

"No! He... it was the wedding one."

"So now he knows you two get married in the future, huh?"

"As far as he knows it was just a dream, not a vision, got it?"

"Got it."

"Kayla, I'm serious-"

"Fine! Sheesh. I swear on the Styx I won't tell Nico it was anything more than a dream." Kayla crossed her arms. "Good luck convincing him to keep his mouth shut, though."

Harley smiled, already half asleep. "Will and Nico sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I... n.....g....." He started snoring softly.

Will tapped his chin thoughtfully. "You know if I give him a sedative he probably won't remember this conversation-"

"William Andrew Solace, don't you dare-"

we can only sext if we roleplay as key figures from the cold war 

I really hope Tumblr can maintain the joke long enough that a fake movie we all fever-dreamed into existence has more fanworks about it than the fourth highest grossing movie of all time.
