Nico watch tools


















When Reyna shares her strength with Nico in The Blood of Olympus , she is horrified at how much pain and raw anguish she felt inside Nico. Even a portion of his pain is greater than the pain she had felt from her entire legion, when they fought against the giant Polybotes. When Reyna accidentally learns about Nico's homosexuality, she, much to Nico's surprise and relief, doesn't judge him.

She still accepts him as a friend, just as he is, without hesitation. Reyna's acceptance likely gave Nico the courage to come out to a very surprised Percy and Annabeth. He admits to being past his strong crush on Percy and is now genuinely happy for Percy and Annabeth.

Hence, Nico is finally willing to become more sociable and more open about himself and his feelings to others. He is no longer nearly so insecure about his homosexuality, and he is completely open about it six months later in The Hidden Oracle. In spite of Nico pretending not to know Percy in The Son of Neptune , he spoke very highly of him to Hazel , telling her that he is dangerous to his enemies and a valuable ally to his friends.

Nico's relationship with Percy also shows how much he's grown and matured throughout the series. Nico is very caring to Hazel Levesque , his half-sister, and tries to help her as much as he can. His helping her sort of parallels with how Percy helped him in several cases.

This shows that he loves his family, even his half-siblings. He turns more inward and withdrawn, with his eyes becoming somewhat glassy like something in him broke permanently. Percy compares him to pictures of prisoners of war, which he notes Nico kind of was. Hazel states in The House of Hades that Nico has become more reclusive and morose, preferring to stay on top of the ship's mast, in solitude.

Nico becomes much more easily angered, defensive, and takes to making creepy and humorless smiles. Nico, however, has happily smiled on two occasions: in The Last Olympian , right after he helps Hades defeat Kronos' army and gains his father's respect, and in The House of Hades after he and Frank defeat Gaea's monsters at the Necromanteion.

In The Blood of Olympus , Nico notes that his facial muscles hurt when he smiles since he isn't used to making that expression often. Even though Nico seems to dislike being touched, he is shown to be very affectionate towards Hazel, having kissed her on the cheek several times. However, by the end of The Blood of Olympus , Nico begins to change and doesn't seem to mind when Jason and Reyna embrace him.

Nico's belief he will not be accepted by the living is proven wrong. After the war with Kronos is over, all the demigods of Camp Half-Blood welcome Nico cheerfully: as Percy puts it, "Hey, show up with an army of undead warriors to save the day, and suddenly you're everyone's best friend.

Sadly, however, Nico's popularity only lasted a few weeks, after which most campers did whatever they could to avoid the son of Hades and forgot he was at camp. However, when Nico mentions his plans to leave for good, due to his lack of acceptance, Will Solace gets upset and tells him that there are actually many people at camp who are his friends or would like to be, but it is Nico who pushes himself away.

Will also states that the camp did not reject him as he had thought. This indicates that Nico may have misinterpreted the campers' reactions to him, or exaggerated it in his own mind, due to his fears of non-acceptance. After Gaea is defeated, when Reyna tells the two camps about Nico's part in saving both of them and gives him a big hug, the crowd of demigods roared with approval, indicating that thanks to Reyna, both Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter have finally come to truly accept the son of Hades.

As a result, Nico decides to give Camp Half-Blood another try, finally seeing that he is accepted. Nico can be extremely dangerous as he is a son of the Big Three. He is very unpredictable, and due to his sister's death can be somewhat mentally unstable as demonstrated in The Battle of the Labyrinth , and Octavian even claims to see a decent amount of ruthlessness in Nico.

He has a short temper, just like Percy and Thalia. When Jason causes him to lose his temper in The House of Hades , Nico's fury was so intense, that it even scared Jason, who felt that a furious Nico was "more than he could handle. A furious Nico, in one horrible cry, unleashes a "flood of pain and anger" on Bryce, Reyna, and Coach Hedge, with the temperature around Nico dropping to freezing turning the ground around him white with frost , Bryce's zombies instantly disintegrating, and a terrified Bryce himself turned into a mindless ghost.

This otherworldly demonstration of Nico's sheer rage when unleashed upon those cruel enough to invoke it was one of the most frightening events in the series. Suffice it to say that no one and nothing would be wise to provoke the son of Hades. By The Hidden Oracle , Nico is much happier and more involved in the camp.

He spends most of his time with his boyfriend Will, and is no longer insecure about being gay although he is still slightly uncomfortable with being called Will's "boyfriend" , and is considerably more relaxed around people, even roasting marshmallows on a campfire, joining in with the campers' sing-a-long, and helping Will tend to wounded demigods in the infirmary.

Overall, Nico is very supportive of his boyfriend, even impressing Will's father Apollo. Nico di Angelo's fatal flaw is holding grudges, as Bianca 's ghost tells him. In his case, it can lead to not wanting help or not asking to be saved in deadly situations because he simply doesn't like someone.

For example, in The Battle of the Labyrinth, he did not want Percy to help him, even when Geryon was going to sell him to the Titans , and he did not want to go back in the Labyrinth with them. Bianca implies she also had the same fatal flaw in life, though it didn't lead to her death.

In the fifth book, Nico tells his father, Hades , that he is holding a grudge that could end up killing the Olympians and the campers. Ever since The Last Olympian , Nico hasn't demonstrated this flaw in extreme degrees and tends to avoid holding grudges. He has learned from his previous experiences.

His flaw resurfaces slightly in The House of Hades , when he still resents Annabeth for her freedom to love Percy openly and with reciprocation, despite his claims to Jason that he has "moved on. He tells Percy and Annabeth about his old crush, but admits that he has come to realize that Percy is not his type and that he is truly happy for Percy and Annabeth.

Nico's crush and subsequent relationship with Will Solace signal the end of that internal conflict. As finally revealed in The House of Hades , Nico's greatest fear is of someone finding out that he is gay. Therefore, he never stayed at either camp for long and did not make connections of friendship with most people, so as to keep them from finding out, becoming more isolated than any other demigod.

This fear about not being accepted due to his sexuality most likely originates from Nico's upbringing in the s, when homosexuality was not accepted. Hence, in The House of Hades , when Cupid forcibly makes Nico reveal his secret in front of Jason , the usually intrepid Nico is nearly reduced to tears.

When Reyna accidentally learns about his secret in The Blood of Olympus , she, much to Nico's surprise and relief, doesn't judge him, and still accepts him as a friend just as he is though she is still very surprised at this revelation , supporting him without hesitation. Reyna's unconditional acceptance and support was what most likely gave Nico the courage to finally come out to a very surprised Percy and Annabeth at the end of The Blood of Olympus , indicating that Nico has finally begun to overcome this immense fear and insecurity of his.

And by The Hidden Oracle , it is indicated that Nico has finally fully overcome it at some point during the six months after Gaea's defeat, finally coming out and confessing his crush on Will Solace , with whom he begins an official romantic relationship.

Nico has black hair that always looks like he just got out of bed messy and shaggy and olive skin. By The Battle of the Labyrinth , his skin has paled to white, and he takes to wearing black clothing with skeletal designs, a Stygian Iron sword and a silver skull ring by the end of the book. By the time he meets Hazel Levesque , she describes his fingers as ghostly white, like their father's. Percy stated that Nico has his mother's eyes, but it has also been said that they have the wild glint of a madman in them, too, just like his father.

According to Percy, Nico's hands are "as cold as ice. By the end of The Battle of the Labyrinth , he has a silver skull ring which was Bianca's last gift to him and is said to belong to his father as stated by Hazel. He also has a Stygian Iron sword always by his side in his chain belt.

He is also mentioned on several occasions wearing an aviator's jacket, most likely because he was originally from WWII. Nico wears a black trench coat when he attempts to bring back Bianca, as shown in one of Hazel's blackouts. In The Last Olympian , Nico wears black battle armor with a skull-shaped helmet.

In The Son of Neptune , Nico is seen wearing a black toga when Percy goes to talk to the senators the reason being that togas are only worn on special occasions, like meetings. In The Mark of Athena , Nico appears weaker, thinner, and even paler than usual, while his eyes are described as "looking like shattered glass," due to his ineffable experience in Tartarus.

Days later, in The House of Hades , Nico has begun to recover and regain his strength, but is still described as "painfully thin," with his black shirt and jeans hanging loosely from his "skeletal frame. However, the area around his sunken eyes is very dark, while his complexion is even paler than before," a sickly greenish-white, like the color of tree sap.

Jason comments that since getting out of Tartarus, Nico "had slept little and eaten even less. Later, Jason is surprised that Nico actually has visible muscles when he takes off his jacket.

According to Hazel, when upset, Nico's face would become "as dark as Tartarus. Several demigods, including Leo, Frank, and even Jason all admit to being afraid of the son of Hades. In The Blood of Olympus , due to the stress of having to shadow-travel vast distances every day, Nico's skin gains a bluish tint, and his cheeks are sunken. After his aviator's jacket and black skull-pattern shirt are both torn to shreds, Nico begins wearing a tropical Puerto Rican shirt, decorated with parrots and palm trees, and with Isla del Encantorico written on it.

His biceps are swollen and severely scarred from his fight with Lycaon , and after Reyna stitches them up for him, it gives Nico "a slightly creepy Frankenstein look," to the point that mortals on the street are scared off at the sight of him.

In The Hidden Oracle , Nico wears black jeans, a Ramones T-shirt, and a black leather bomber jacket, with his Stygian iron sword at his side. Apollo also notes that his hair has grown longer. Later on during the battle at the Tower, Apollo describes his clothes as being torn and battered from the fighting. As a son of Hades , Nico is an extremely powerful demigod. He is considerably more trained in using his powers than most children of the Big Three , such as Thalia and Percy , due to his time spent in the Underworld and he states that he trains with the dead.

In The Son of Neptune , Hazel stated Nico was one of the most powerful demigod she'd ever seen to the point that she compared his power to that of a nuclear bomb.

Hazel also states that Nico "might" be able to rival Jason Grace. Eventually, Hazel believed that Percy was stronger than Nico. In The Blood of Olympus , Reyna mentions that after being healed from his injuries by Hedge and resting for several days, Nico becomes significantly more powerful than ever before.

Percy Jackson , his good friend and previous love interest. Nico immediately asked if Annabeth was his girlfriend, why he and Thalia fought so much, and other questions, which made Percy want to feed him to the wolves and or strangle him. Percy reminded Nico of heroes from Mythomagic and pirates, and developed a crush on him. He thought he was a hero and could do no wrong. Before Percy left for the quest, Nico found him and asked if he was going on the quest with his sister Bianca and to protect her while on it.

Percy promises that he will keep her safe. After Bianca dies, Percy felt very guilty for her death and immediately thought about who will tell Nico. It is Percy that decides to break the news to Nico. Nico takes it very hard and begins to hate Percy, blaming him for his sister's death before running away from camp, telling him he promised to protect her and that he wished he was dead. However, another reason Nico ran away was that he was afraid of his crush on Percy.

After Nico ran away, Percy decided to keep his parentage a secret from Chiron and decided to be the hero in the Great Prophecy in order to make sure Nico wouldn't go through more pain. Percy searched for Nico all spring, to no avail. Nico was afraid of himself and afraid of his feelings for Percy, due to internalized homophobia, which persisted for years.

During The Battle of the Labyrinth , Percy has dreams about Nico and feels bad for him, but he became afraid that he would try to kill him as revenge to bring Bianca back. Nico becomes furious at Percy and orders him to go away, and thinks he will kill him. Percy calms down when he finds out that he wasn't planning to kill him, after Nico said Bianca's soul is worth more than his.

He completes a job for Geryon to free Nico, even at the risk of Percy having to stay there himself if he fails. Even though Geryon double-crossed Percy, after his defeat, Percy asks Nico to stay on the ranch to keep him safe. In return, Percy helps Nico summon Bianca's ghost, who tells him to forgive Percy. Nico rushed into the Labyrinth again after Minos told him Percy was in danger, showing that he indeed cared about Percy.

However, when Percy found out Nico ran back into the maze, Percy wanted to return to the maze to find him. Percy and Nico were reunited at Daedalus' Workshop and Nico apologized to Percy, saying he was tricked by Minos and wanted to save him.

Nico then saved Percy and the others by declaring himself the ghost king, finally becoming friends. During the quest, Nico saved Percy many times, especially when Kronos first rose from his sarcophagus in Luke 's body; creating a large wall of black rock between them. Also on the quest, Nico asked Percy if he really thought he would belong at Camp Half-Blood , Percy hesitated, thinking about how he had creeped him out when Nico declared himself the "Ghost King".

Nico wanted to discover his past that he knew nothing about. Percy wanted to argue, but he realized there was a reason why Pan didn't address him, and that he would have to find his own dark way. Percy then said he hoped he and Nico wouldn't be enemies, and Nico apologized for being a brat and said he should've listened to him about Bianca.

The two parted ways when Percy gave Nico his figurine and they shook hands, and promised to keep in touch.

Nico later appeared in Percy's apartment a few months later at his birthday party, and told him the fates of Minos and Daedalus. Nico wanted to tell him about how to bathe in the River Styx, but them asked if he had blue birthday cake. Percy realized he had never been invited to a birthday party before and invited him in, saying they had a lot to talk about. When he finds out about Hades' Sword being stolen, Percy doesn't want anything to do with Hades but Nico wanted to find the sword for his father and didn't want it to fall in Kronos ' hands.

Percy knew he wanted to impress his father and could see it in his face, so he decided to help him, not wanting him to go alone. Nico was amazed at Percy when he controlled the River Lethe and helped heal him after. Nico was also amazed when Percy defeated Iapetus. After the quest was over, Nico, Percy, and Thalia said their goodbyes on a balcony, and Nico decided to stay in the Underworld to help his dad.

Percy and Nico shook hands and Percy had Nico promise to call him if he needed anything. Percy asked if he was there to see Juniper and Nico blushed and said he just stumbled in on their conversation, most likely to hide his crush on Percy. Nico reassured Percy that Beckendorf 's death wasn't his fault, and said he spoke to his ghost.

Nico and Percy then talked about the plan for Percy to bathe in the Styx. Though Percy was unsure, he trusted Nico and went on with the plan. In order to gain information on his mother , Nico lead Percy to the Underworld to unknowingly speak to his father, Hades.

Nico later helped Percy escape and swore on the River Styx and said he didn't know what he was planning, but Percy was angry and wanted to strangle him, but knew there was no point in arguing. They escaped and Percy gave Nico ambrosia to heal from his fight, and caught him before he passed out again. After Nico and Percy met with Achilles , Nico had second thoughts on Percy bathing in the river, but Percy said it was his idea and to wait for him, and that if he died, he could be the hero of the prophecy.

Nico was very scared when Percy woke up and asked if he was alright, and tried to protect him from his father and his soldiers. It is later revealed that Nico tried to make Percy fall in love with him by bathing in the Styx. Nico ended up doing what Percy said and convincing his father, showing up in the middle of the Battle of Manhattan to help Percy, and asked if it was too late to join the party. Nico encouraged Percy to go to Olympus , while he helped Sally and Paul, and said that he would handle the army.

Percy later told the gods on Olympus that Nico proved to him that no one deserved to be left out, and that every god deserves a cabin at Camp. After the events of the book, one of the reasons why Nico left Camp again was his sadness of Percy and Annabeth getting together.

Nico was shocked when he saw him but regained his composure and shook his hand, shocked to see his crush. Percy and Nico studied each other warily, and Percy thought he knew him, and Nico responded, "do you? Hazel later questioned Nico about this, and Nico told Hazel that he couldn't say much about Percy due to a promise he made with his father, but said he was one of the good guys and dangerous only to his enemies.

Percy later questioned Frank Zhang about Nico, wanting to know more about him. At dinner, Percy questioned Nico, asking if they met before, but Nico lies and said he spent most of his time in the Underworld and unless he saw him there, they never met. Nico didn't want to talk to him much, and on the way to a senate meeting, Nico waved to Percy but went back to talking to Gwendolyn , indicating that he didn't want to talk to the son of Poseidon.

He also explained to Percy how Thanatos and Pluto were different. However, Percy had mixed feelings about Nico, and was still mad at him for tricking him to go to Hades palace. He was also mad at him for hiding his last from him and thought of scathing things to say to him. But he wanted to rescue him and couldn't stand seeing him in pain in a bronze jar, and didn't want him to suffocate him to death.

He also wanted to find him because he knew where the Doors of Death were. In Rome, he helped rescue him with Jason and Piper, and was the most determined out of the three to rescue him. However, he was annoyed when he could barely crawl out of the jar, and wanted him to crawl more and groan less. When they went back on to the Argo II , Percy felt so sorry for him he couldn't muster much anger at him.

Nico apologized to Percy for keeping his past from him and said he knew about both camps, but couldn't tell due to a promise to his father. Nico also told Percy the Doors of Death were in Tartarus.

Back on the ship later, Nico was determined to rescue Percy and knew he would make it back from Tartarus. Nico said that Percy is the strongest demigod he knows, and that he and Annabeth would make it through Tartarus, but he was secretly unsure if he would live.

In The House of Hades , Percy realizes that Nico indirectly saved his and Annabeth's lives by reminding Iapetus also known as Bob that Percy is a friend even though Percy didn't visit him and Nico was the one who actually visited him in Hades palace. When Percy found out, he felt low and dishonorable, unworthy of having a friend.

Percy, when on the verge of death from Gorgon Blood, admits that Nico is another friend that he had not treated fairly. While on his journey in Tartarus, Percy realized Nico was stronger than he gave him credit for. As for Nico, Nico missed him a lot and his voice broke when he mentioned him as being the sea expert.

The crew offered Nico Percy's cabin but Nico refused. Nico's crewmates were confused why he would do anything for Percy if they hated him so much, and couldn't imagine him being kind to him. The Argo II thought that Nico hated Percy, but it is revealed in Croatia that he actually had a crush on him, to Jason, who kept the secret from the others. Favonius also called Percy, though not by name, "The person Nico cared about most. And Nico looked sad when he saw Percy and Annabeth holding hands.

Later, Percy went to thank Nico for leading the crew to the House of Hades , and Nico said it was the least he could do after he saved him in Rome. Percy then told him about Tartarus and thanked him for helping Iapetus, and Nico said overlooking people can be dangerous. Percy then said he was trying to say thank you, and Nico told him to give him space, making Percy feel hurt. He was also confused as to who Nico was, as he wasn't a nerdy little kid or an angry loner anymore.

However, Nico found it endearing, but also annoying. Nico resented Percy for his feelings but knew he would do anything for him. When Nico found out that one of the seven may die, Percy was his third priority after Hazel and Jason. Nico was grateful for Percy for saving him in Rome and letting him onto the ship, and the thought of him or any of the seven dying made him feel like he was back in the bronze jar. Nico was surprised when Reyna and Coach Hedge accepted his crush on Percy, which likely encouraged him to come out to him after.

After he returned to Camp, he was genuinely happy for Percy going to college in New Rome , and Percy was happy for Nico staying at Camp. Nico then confessed that he had a crush on Percy, but not anymore, since he isn't his type, but still cute. He said that Percy was a great person and he was happy for him and Annabeth. Percy was too shocked to speak, oblivious to his feelings. Nico with Will Solace , his current love interest and boyfriend.

In The Blood of Olympus , it's hinted that Nico has developed an attraction to Will Solace , as they fought alongside each other. The two argue, but Will is shown to be able to withstand Nico's temper, and even order him around a bit. Nico develops an admiration for Will, who he hadn't thought greatly of before. At one point, Nico remembers his first arrival to camp in Apollo 's sun chariot, and how Thalia had thought that Will's divine father was hot.

While Nico didn't understand suddenly remembering this, it is most likely an indication of his budding feelings for Will, since Will is Apollo's son and shares physical traits with him. In the aftermath of the battle, Nico avoided Will, believing he was disgusted with him for allowing Octavian to kill himself, showing he cared very much about Will's opinion of him.

To his surprise, Will is more upset that Nico didn't offer to help him, or more importantly, spend time with him after it was all over. Will ordered Nico to stay with him in infirmary for three days, and Nico "felt like a hundred skeletal butterflies were resurrecting in his stomach". Will also seems to reciprocate said feelings, or at the very least, is willing to be closer friends with the son of Hades. In The Hidden Oracle it is revealed that shortly after Gaea's defeat, Nico finally comes out and confesses to Will Solace about having a strong crush on the latter, and the two begin dating, with Will at one point affectionately referring to Nico as his boyfriend.

Will's father, the former god Apollo , is completely supportive of their relationship, due to him having had several mortal boyfriends himself.

They continue their playful banter with each other, and are usually seen sitting close by, holding hands. In fact, Apollo claims that Nico and Will are so cute together as a couple, that it made him feel desolate, jogging his memories of the time he had spent with his mortal boyfriend Hyacinthus, one of Apollo's two all-time favorite lovers the other being Daphne.

Nico on his part, is always ready to help and support Will, such as when he tirelessly helped his boyfriend tend to wounded campers notably Paolo Montes and Valentina Diaz. Nico also showed some jealousy when he caught Will staring at Paolo, but Will stated that it was nothing and that he was merely admiring how well his arms were functioning after surgery.

Jason Grace , his ally, his first and one of his closest friends. Jason met Nico at Camp Jupiter at once point. Before rescuing him in The Mark of Athena , Jason voices his doubts on Nico's loyalties, infuriating Hazel, and wanted to leave him to die in Rome. Jason pointed out that it might be a trap and also found Nico's loyalties doubtful, because despite knowing about both the camps, Nico did not tell anyone.

Jason had also learned from Percy about the incident in Hades' Palace in The Last Olympian , not knowing what to think of him. Nevertheless, he still saved him, and Nico thanked him and the rest of the crew, saying he almost lost hope. Nico later told Jason about how they could save Percy by going through the House of Hades. In The House of Hades , Jason is still creeped out by Nico, and doesn't want to go alone with him after hearing how he betrayed Percy in the past.

Jason also thought that he had a tendency to hide in the shadows. He wished someone put a bell around his neck to be reminded that he was there, because he hid in the corner and blended into the shadows.

He also thought he wasn't easy to figure out. He thought it was disturbing he spent more time with the dead then the living. He didn't get why Nico hated Percy so much but still took the Argo II to Epirus , didn't spend much time at either camp, and pushed people away. Nevertheless, Nico still trusted Jason and obeyed his command, and Jason tried to talk and bond with Nico, letting Nico share his news about meeting priests of Hecate to the crew, and told Leo to stop making jokes while he was talking.

Jason was creeped out by the suggestion of going to go to find Diocletian's Scepter in Croatia with him. Jason was excited when Piper offered to go with him, but Nico rejected the notion of her going, and Nico had a look as if he was waiting for Jason to protest. Once they got to Salona flew Nico into the sky, which made Nico angry about being touched. He thought having Nico around was not reassuring when they went underground, especially with the glow of his Stygian Iron sword.

Jason comforted him when Nico was nervous about confronting Cupid, even though he thought it's just a crush on Annabeth, and said it may be embarrassing, but it's just for the scepter. When the two arrive in Salona, Jason is grateful to have Nico there with him, and the two defended each other during Cupid's attacks, with Nico helping Jason up when he fell.

Nico even let himself be bullied by Cupid so he could leave Jason alone. Jason was so shocked by what he saw from Nico's past that he was unable to move or speak. But Jason realized by Nico was so afraid, and realized he had a crush on Percy. Nico almost cried, and said he didn't like Percy anymore, saying he was young and impressionable. Jason said he had seen people do many brave things, but what he had done was the bravest.

Nico brushed Jason off though. After the events, Jason is a lot more concerned for Nico and even defends him when Leo calls him creepy, and never told anyone about Nico's secret. He was also surprised when Nico became buff. At Auster's palace, Nico lashed out and yelled at Jason for not being able to convince Auster to leave sooner, and that he had suffered too many embarrassments. Jason encourages Nico to take a risk be his friend and that everyone will accept him for being gay, and that's who he is.

Jason also tells Nico to stop running away and stop hiding, which angers Nico, making Jason grab his sword believing a fight is about to start. Despite Nico's anger, Jason tells Nico that he is willing to be his friend. At The House of Hades , Nico gives Jason the chalice first to drink and asks him if he trusts him, which he does without hesitation, signifying that he trusted Nico.

At the battle, Nico and Jason stick by each other and Jason catches Nico and protects him from falling at one point. Jason and Piper stood at Nico's back and protected him while he was summoning ghosts with the scepter. Jason even promoted Frank to Praetor after Nico suggested he do so.

The two also helped save Hazel and Leo. When Nico says he is going with Reyna to retrieve the Athena Parthenos , Jason said he didn't doubt his strength, but was still skeptical, but after Nico said he had changed since Tartarus, Jason trusts him and knows he will be okay. While Nico is gone, the two think about each other all the time.

Jason is grateful for Nico and his actions at the House of Hades. Jason worries about him and is grateful that he went to bring the Athena Parthenos. Every time Jason sacrificed his food to Jupiter, Jason prayed that his father will help him. Nico, on the other hand, is still embarrassed about Salona and when Jason picked him up. Nevertheless, Nico's primary concern other than Hazel is for Jason. When Nico found out that anyone from the Seven may die, Nico felt he was back in the bronze jar.

He was grateful for Jason and the Seven for saving him and Rome and welcoming him on the ship. Nico also thought of Jason's advice to come out of the shadows when Reyna was brooding in Buford, causing him to tell Reyna about Jules-Albert.

At the battle to kill Gaea, Jason was happy to see Nico fighting with Camp Half-Blood , and the two talked and ran into battle together. Nico asked if everyone was okay, and Hoth worried about Leo, they charged into battle for him. Nico was also worried when Octavian wanted to fire an onager, and Nico said he shouldn't, because Jason or Piper would get hurt. Two days after, Jason visited Nico at his cabin, and Nico was slightly disappointed when he showed up, and not Will Solace.

Nico comforted Jason over Leo's death, and told him that there was nothing he could have done to stop him, and Leo knew what had to happen. When Jason asked if he may be still alive, Nico apologized, saying he wished he could say otherwise, but he felt him die.

He felt guilty for squashing Jason's hopes, but he knew it wasn't fair to give him false They also talked about how maybe they don't need more prophecies for awhile, after they find out the Oracle was blocked. Jason tried to convince Nico to stay at Camp again, but when Jason finds out Nico is staying at Camp Half-Blood, Jason almost hugged him, but he realized he didn't like touching and apologized, but Nico said he was an exception. Jason then have him a bear hug so hard his ribs cracked.

He talked about all the fun they will have, and said they can sit with each other, team up for sing along contests, and team up for Capture the Flag.

Nico pretends to be annoyed, and asked if he was trying to scare him away, and Jason apologized, but said he was just glad. Nico believed that he's actually excited for him to stay. Annabeth Chase , his and former love rival. Nico and Annabeth first meet in The Titan's Curse , when Annabeth helps save Nico from the Manticore , and ultimately ends up captured. Nico asked Percy if Annabeth was his girlfriend, frustrating him.

When Annabeth came home, she kept the secret that Nico was the son of Hades from Chiron, and searched for him all spring, to no avail. In The Battle of the Labyrinth , Annabeth was uneasy when she found out that Nico was communing with the dead, saying that spirits are untrustworthy advisors, and that they needed to go track down Nico in the Labyrinth.

Annabeth became extremely worried when she thought Nico would come after Percy. When Annabeth and Percy found Nico at Geryon 's ranch, it is revealed that Nico, to some extent, blamed Annabeth for Bianca dying and had informed Geryon about her. But this made Nico more upset, telling Annabeth that she didn't care about Bianca, and that if she did she would help him.

But even after everything Nico said to her, Annabeth helped him summon Bianca's ghost and kept spirits away from him. She also told Nico that his sister was right when she told him that his anger will be his doom, and reminded him again that Kronos would do anything to get him on his side. The next morning, Annabeth tried to convince him to join the group, saying that Bianca just wanted him to be okay, and put her hand on his shoulder, but he brushed her off and walked away. After he left, Annabeth told Percy she was worried about him and scared he would talk to Minos again.

Two weeks after that, Annabeth got an iris message from Eurytion and learned he had left his ranch and went back into the maze, making her so worried about him she was queasy. She and Eurytion thought that he was talking to Minos again and knew he was in danger, afraid of what Minos wanted from him. However, Nico ended up choosing to side with Percy and try to save him, and Annabeth charged at Kelli , who had captured Nico in the first place, and Nico, in return, chose to save everyone, including Annabeth, when he declared himself the Ghost King, finally trusting Annabeth.

After they escaped, Nico chose to accompany Annabeth a gift shop to buy a prism. When they all arrived back at Camp, Nico didn't want to stay, but when Annabeth put her hand on his shoulder and asked him to stay for her, Nico decided to stay, but only for her, possibly to mess with Percy.

During the Battle of the Labyrinth , Annabeth, along with the others, helped Nico sit up as he healed. In The Mark of Athena , it is revealed that Annabeth has always had mixed feelings about Nico di Angelo, and suspects that he had a crush on her ever since she rescued him from Westover Hall. However, Annabeth herself has no feelings for him beyond kinship, since he is too young, too moody, and has a certain darkness in him that makes Annabeth uneasy. Furthermore, she has always found it hard to "read" Nico and his actions.

However, Annabeth still admits to feeling responsible for him, and can relate to feeling like Nico did after Bianca's death—a homeless orphan, drifting through the world alone. Annabeth was upset when she found out about Nico's imprisonment, and listened to the news sadly, shaking her head, but she wasn't surprised at all by the news, and figured out he would die on the Kalends of July.

She also figured out rescuing him was a trap, but felt a responsibility to save him. Their reunion was cut short when Annabeth began falling into Tartarus, and Nico rushed to try to save her, using his strength to hobble in her direction. He even leaned over the chasm, reaching out to help her and Percy, to no avail. The last sounds Annabeth heard before falling was Nico and Hazel screaming for help.

Later, when Nico arrived back on the ship, Nico reassured Leo that Percy Annabeth were not dead, and if they were he would feel it. He also said that Annabeth would make it through Tartarus, and that Percy would make it, especially with Annabeth on his side, showing he thought highly of the daughter of Athena.

However, he was unsure if he could get her back safely. However when he and Nico went to Croatia, he thought his "crush" was bigger than he thought and was a deeper love. Jason connected the dots and it is finally revealed that Nico was actually jealous of Annabeth , not in love with her, due to her relationship with Percy his actual love interest , which is why Nico initially didn't want to be around her.

Nevertheless, despite his jealousy, Nico led the demigods into the House of Hades to save Annabeth and Percy. After seeing Annabeth and Percy holding hands, Nico looks pained, showing that his secret crush on Percy is as strong as ever, although Hazel just thought it was because he went through Tartarus alone. As for Annabeth, in Tartarus, she was in disbelief when she found out Nico helped them, and said she had no idea what drove him, and couldn't figure him out. Nico was afraid she found out about his crush, but instead, she went out of her way to thank Nico for being nice to Iapetus even before Percy did so , and telling the Titan that Percy is worth saving.

While Nico is still very jealous of Annabeth, and wants to hate her, he cannot bring himself to, since Annabeth's gratitude was genuine and sincere, and she never overlooked or avoided Nico like most people. Hence, Nico admits to himself that it would have been far easier for him if she were a horrible person. Later in the book, when Hades reveals to Nico that one of the Seven is destined to die, the idea of any of them even Annabeth dying made him feel empty—like he was back in the dark Giants' Bronze Jar.

Direct support questions and general discussions on the sourceforge forum, but make sure you check the FAQ first. File only if you have found a bug in the software, and make sure to include enough description for someone else to reproduce the bug. Although it is mainly intended for, and originally developed for speech recognition applications, the NICO toolkit is a general purpose toolkit for constructing artificial neural networks and training with the back-propagation learning algorithm.

The network topology is very flexible. Units are organized in groups and the group is a hierarchical structure, so groups can have sub-groups or other objects as members.

This makes it easy to specify multi-layer networks with arbitrary connection structure and to build modular networks. Recurrency and time-delays are constrained only by the condition that the activation of a unit cannot be dependent on its own activity at the present or future times this is checked automatically every time the user connects between two groups or units.

A convenient feature is that the user can specify not only time-delay connections but also look-ahead connections. All connections are converted to time-delays when the network runs, but this is completely hidden from the user. The NICO toolkit was developed to solve a particular problem phoneme probability estimation for automatic speech recognition and the focus was not on research in the field of artificial neural networks. There are no fancy graphical tools to monitor network behavior or characteristics.

But if you want to solve a real problem with a large database millions of samples and possibly large networks e. The communication with external data is handled conveniently by stream objects in the network. A network may have multiple input and output streams.
