(Will has never offered his blood to someone like that before. Transfusions were one thing but to give his blood to someone who was actively starving? He smooths a thumb over his wrist and then glances back at Roman.)
Are you...sure? I mean, if it won't kill me and it'll save you then I don't really mind. I just don't want to accidentally hurt you.
(He means that too. Will just wasn't the sort of person who really wished ill will on anyone. Ha.
He snorts a little bit and even rolls his eyes.)
Gods, you've no idea. It's the Greek gods so everything is a grudge. Monsters and demigods are their tools to get back at each other all of the time. You have a god who curses some mortal that becomes a monster and suddenly that monster wants to take out every demigod of that god to get back at them and the god sends demigods in to try and kill the monster they made and blahblahblah. It's this vicious dumb cycle, honestly. The gods make mistakes like people do- just theirs tend to stick around for a whole lot longer. Centuries is...about right. Me personally? I'm only fifteen. Demigods are sturdy but...we're not immortal.
(Yeah Will doesn't really get that either. He shrugs at Roman and shakes his head.)
No, it really doesn't. I think we're in a new world but right now at this very second we're in a video game. Or something.
(He scratches at the side of his head, frowning. His eyes move over to Roman and he frowns deeper and looks down into his own lap. He needed to go back too but at the same time....
Nico was here. Nico had been here alone for a really, really long time. His hands squeeze together in fists and he takes a slow breath. He would find Nico again soon. He needed to. To shove it in his face that he was still here but also...just to be there. For Nico.)
Not so sure it's gonna be that simple getting back. There's a boy from my world here...He's apparently been here for...a long time.
