Nico visits May Castellan whenever he can

As the same way Nico visits Bob in Underworld, he visits May Castellan in her house.

She keeps making burned cookies even months after the death of her son, she's still waiting for him to come back.

The same profecy took away Nico's mother, the same profecy took away May's son. She went crazy because his father cursed the oracle after his mother's death.

It is not surprising that Nico once felt guilty for her madness just as he felt guilty about his mother's death, or his sister death, or any toxic thoughts he had of himself.

He's okay with their deaths, he overcame any guilt he once felt, his mother died, Bianca too, there's nothing he can do about it. But May is still alive, there's something he can do.

Nico visits May Castellan whenever he can.

At the first time, a few weeks after Luke's death, her house was worse than when he visited her with Percy, more cookies, more sandwiches and more juice. She she was terribly thinner, the opaque eyes were tired with dark circles worse than his (he did not believe this would be possible), her hair it looked like one of Mrs. O'Leary's destroyed toys.

She definitely felt her son’s death.

Or at least, she felt something terrible happened with Luke, because when she opened the door, she hugged the boy with that same scary smile.

"Luke!" She said.

Nico thought everything was the same, he expected that same speech that she knew he would be back for lunch but she started crying.

"Oh my little boy, I knew you would make the right choice," she was right, Luke stopped Chronos in his last moments, this little good thing sent him to Elysium, "I knew it wasn't your fate..."

Nico tensed, waiting for that green sparkle in her eyes again, but she continued. "I knew you would come back my son" she smiled, in a more natural way, "your father came visit me some weeks ago, he told me you were in a better place, he told me to not worry about your fate anymore."

"The last time I came here," Nico started, "you said something... about not being able to get some images off your head..." The woman kept that unfocused look into him, "did you get them off?"

Ms. Castellan toutched his cheek. "Those images didn't come since you took the right choice." His father's curse was over then, but why she keeps waiting for Luke?

The next times wasn't diferent, she kept calling him Luke and burning cookies, but her cookies was becoming less and less carbonized.

Nico could see how genuinely happy she was to see her "son" visiting her and eating "his" favorite food, even those cookies (it wasn't the worse thing he once has eaten after shadowtravells).

She wasn't terribly thin anymore, her hair wasn't messy, and her smile wasn't weird anymore.

She was healling.

Nico noticed the weird stuff in her house getting cleaner. She stopped making sandwiches every day, only when he come to vist her. The house now have a regular number of mirrors, all the wind chimes were kept, according to her, in the attic, the stuffed beanbag had to be trown in trash. And even the little Medusa in sink wasn't there anymore.

Everytime he visits her, they talk about his demigod adventures... To were he travelled, the monsters he fought, his little sister, Hazel... And Percy Jackson. Not his feelings about him, nobody will ever know about it, but how this guy went missing and how worried Nico was about him.

Now her eyes are completely normal, it's just a matter of time until she realizes Nico isn't her son.

After the Second Gigant War, Nico didn't visited her anymore, first for his fear to shadowtravell again, then for fearing she will finally know he isn't Luke.

Until the day Hermes showed up in Hades cabin.

Nico woke up with someone knocking the door, at first he tought it was Will, his... Nico doesn't like the word "boyfriend", Will is his "best friend with a non platonic romantic atraction". It doesn't matter, because it wasn't Will at the door.

"Why didn't you visit your mom anymore? She's worried about you" the man said.

"Urn, hi?" Nico was still groggy with sleep, that didn't make any sense to him.

"Hi, Nico" the boy noticed his blue eyes, the same blue eyes as Luke, or the Stoll brothers, or anyone in Hermes cabin have.

"Hermes" Nico rubbed his face to ward off sleep, "need something?"

"May misses you," he said, "I went visit her yesterday, she's doing great, by the way. Come on, I'll give you a ride." In one of his pockets, his phone started to ring and the man rolled his eyes, "I don't have much time, lets go."

Nico barely put his shoes on and Hermes was taking him to Ms. Castellans house. It was like shadowtravell with Mrs. O'Leary, nauseatingly fast, but without the darkness.

Hermes left him at her door and said "don't worry, I will take you back to Camp" and then disapeared.

Nico looked at the house before knocking. The sidewalk was normal, just like the front porch. "Good" he thought.

Ms. Castellan was barely unrecognizable, her white hair was long and neat in a braid, she was wearing a clean dress.

When she looked at Nico, she didn't hugged him, nor she acted desperately relieved as she used to, she just said, "Hello my son"

She knew he isn't Luke, Nico could see it in her eyes, but she still call him son.

"Hello mom" he aswered.
