Freddy & Nico
WHO: Freddy Freeman & Nico di Angelo
WHERE: Nico's bedroom
WHEN: Backdated to the banishing of the maze.
WHAT: Comfort? Assurance? Something like that. :)
STATUS: Threading
SPOILERS: Maybe for Percy Jackson's various incarnations
WARNINGS: Maybe some dark themes, such as death

Freddy felt fairly useless when it came to helping anyone in the maze. He didn't have his powers in Goodland and his cane slowed him down so it wasn't like he could go fight whatever monsters were in the maze. He still remembered facing that dementor-looking creature a few months ago; the creature not only bested him, but left Freddy with a broken cane and bloody face. Yep, he was useless alright. Still, Freddy agreed to help with "behind the scenes" stuff when several residents, including Nico, hatched a plan to banish the maze. He made sure to stay out of the way, but also ascertained who was where and was ready to alert nearby medical staff if anyone needed help. The plan, amazingly, worked, but left everyone, including Freddy, exhausted. However, Freddy was most worried about Nico, which was how he ended up napping on his friend's floor while Nico rested in his bed.

	"Not everyone would do that," Freddy insisted. He patted Nico's back quickly before withdrawing his hand. His heart pounded. Why had he done that? "But you did. I think you are majorly brave so deal with it." He grinned. "Okay?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Okay," Nico said, not really sure what else to say. Compliments were... weird, and he wasn't sure how to take them. Part of him wanted to argue against Freddy's words, but part of him didn't. Was it because he was tired? Yawning, he thought it might be. Because the alternative... No. He refused to think of the alternative.

"Thanks. For being there. And here," he said with another yawn, covering his mouth with his hand.

	Freddy noticed Nico was exhausted. "You should sleep more," he said. Then, impulsively, he wrapped one arm around Nico's shoulders and quickly squeezed. "Uh, if you need anything, let me know? I'll...I'll see you later." He pulled himself up with his cane. His heart was pounding. What had he just done? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Nico wanted to object, to say he wasn't exhausted, just kind of really tired. However, his body was already objecting to that thought. He was exhausted. So much so that he might have hallucinated Freddy giving his shoulder a squeeze, a sort of half side hug thing. Why would he do that? He wasn't entirely sure he had because it hadn't felt as uncomfortable as when other people touched him. He decided, at least for the moment, maybe it didn't happen, and he nodded a little.

"I'll let you know," he said, taking a second to watch Freddy stand before settling back down in bed with another yawn, eyes sliding shut. "See you later, Freddy."
