*Nico groaned and shook his waterlogged head*
Nico: well, since Ithaca is in shambles right now and frankly, I'm too scared to go down to the Underworld and see my dad because we haven't actually talked since I showed up- and if this Hades is anything like MY Hades, then I'd probably just be killed immediately. *Nico ran a hand through his hair, spluttering as sand ran down his face* ugh . . . anyways, I came to try and find Odysseus. I only realized once I was really far off shore that 1. I'm a Son of HADES and would probably be sucked to the bottom of the sea, 2. I have never sailed a ship in my entire life and was basically learning as I went, and 3. I'm from the future; I literally know what has happened, is going to happen, and is happening right now *Nico laid back, sighing* so, yeah, adding on top of that that I can't swim and am 150lbs of pale skin and fragile bone with sarcasm as my only defense, I basically set myself and everyone else up for failure. yay, me . . .
