THE LOOK I HAVE ON MY FACE RIGHT NOW, I CANNOT EVEN BEGIN TO EXPLAIN IT. Oh gosh, this is perfect. Nico being completely mysterious, and Percy/Tom, and the way you managed to pull in bits of canon - like how Percy feels in the water as opposed to the shock of lightning in the air - is amazing, and, yes, words are eluding me entirely. Your Nico is so wonderful, and I love how oblivious Percy is most of the time whilst still being entirely aware of needing Nico.

Just-- gosh. Thank you so, so much ♥

AWE THANK-YOU! I'm so glad that you liked it! Ahhh g afigjamgi/ You're one of my favourite writers so I thought it would be nice to give back (and you prompt was the only one I wanted to fill? Lol).

Percy's birthday, according to the Camp Half-Blood Wiki, is August of '93, which makes him a year older than Tom, which was like, perfect. I mean, they obviously had to be friends/in a relationship/whatever, right?

And I thought maybe he'd feel tingly the higher he went on the diving platforms because it would be like Zeus warning him to stay out of his domain. But then again, the gods don't exist in this AU so I don't even know what~

But thank-you for your kind words and I'm so glad that you liked this :D xx

Here via FinkPishnets!

That was marvellous, darling!!!! I particularly loved the way you kept the essence of the characters so close to the original, without making the situation incongruous. Excellent work. :D

Yay! :D

I'm so glad you liked the story. At some point during the writing process I wondered if putting the Percy/Tom relationship was a good idea. But it was early in the morning and I was just going for it, haha. I'm also glad to hear that you thought the characterization was alright because that's something I always struggle with when writing.

Thank you so much for your kind words! :D xx
