    “For a long time,’ Nico said, ‘I had a crush on you. I just wanted you to know.’ Percy looked at Nico. Then at Annabeth, as if to check that he’d heard correctly. Then back at Nico.

    ‘You –’

    ‘Yeah,’ Nico said. ‘You’re a great person. But I’m over that. I’m happy for you guys.’

    ‘You … so you mean –’

    ‘Right.’

    Annabeth’s grey eyes started to sparkle. She gave Nico a sideways smile.

    ‘Wait,’ Percy said. ‘So you mean –’

    ‘Right,’ Nico said again. ‘But it’s cool. We’re cool. I mean, I see now … you’re cute, but you’re not my type.’

    ‘I’m not your type … Wait. So –’

    Rick Riordan
    “He had been born in Mussolini’s Italy. He had survived decades in the time-warp reality of the Lotus Casino. He’d emerged in modern times disoriented and culture-shocked, arrived at Camp Half-Blood, and promptly lost his sister Bianca to a dangerous quest. He had wandered the Labyrinth in self-imposed exile, being tortured and brainwashed by a malevolent ghost. He’d overcome everyone’s distrust and emerged from the Battle of Manhattan as a hero. He’d been captured by giants during the rise of Gaea. He’d wandered Tartarus alone and somehow managed to come out alive. And through it all, he’d struggled with his upbringing as a conservative Catholic Italian male from the 1930s and finally learned to accept himself as a young gay man. Anyone who could survive all that had more resilience than Stygian iron.”
    Rick Riordan, The Tower of Nero
