I wish we would all talk about Nico and Lycoan more often. The possibility that Nico went through lycanthropy. The beef between Nico and Lycoan in general. Lycoan haunting all of his nightmares.
The possibility of Nico wondering why hes growing more hair on his arms and legs and wondering “am I a werewolf or am I just 14? I guess we’ll find out the next full moon”.
Just the general horror of Nico turning into a werewolf. Nico actually becoming a monster. Hes always struggled with other people seeing him as a monster before and now that’s he’s actually technically a monster. How would the others (minus Reyna and Hazel) treat him? Cause you know he’d be terrified of them treating him worse.
The possibility that Nico may not be able to pass through the border of camp halfblood anymore. Someone would have to give him permission to let him through. He’d have to ask someone. From the Greek camp. Someone he’s not all that close with. To let him inside. Because he can’t get through. And of course that someone would start asking a bunch of questions that Nico doesn’t know how to answer is too afraid to answer.
Of course he’ll try to hide that he’s a werewolf for as long as he possibly can because that’s just who he is as a character. But how would he explain the border? Or would he just shadow travel inside. Despite him being so out of shape at the end of BoO. I doubt he could do that so soon after the war. Maybe later on he could shadow travel in and out after he heals but.
There’s so much angst potential for werewolf Nico I don’t understand why it’s rarely ever talked about.
