Nico wanted go get his mythomagic cards signed by the gods. He knew that he had previously told everyone that that was 'to childish,' but he wanted to have a full set of fourteen signed cards. When he told his plan to Will, his boyfriend only kissed him on the cheek and quickly walked away. Nico shook his head. 'I'll show him,' he thought.
The moment he saw Hestia in camp, sitting at the fireplace, he grabbed his binder with cards and walked over to her. 'Hello, lady Hestia,' he said, and he sat down next to her. 'Hello, child,' she said in a kind voice, 'What did you bring?' 'oh, nothing,' Nico said. He blushed. Hestia smiled. 'Those are MythoMagic cards, aren't they?' Nico nodded. Hestia laughed and got a pen out of nowhere. She got her card out of the binder and signed it. Nico smiled. 'Thank you, lady Hestia!' He said. He bowed and ran away. He walked through camp for a while, until he ended up at the big house. He stopped, thought about it, and walked into the house. He sat down in front of Dionysus, who glared at him. Nico opened his binder and started flipping through it. The card Hestia had signed fell out. Nico gasped, while it fell down on the floor. He tried to quickly pick it up, but fell over while doing that. As Nico got up, he saw Dionysus pick up the card. Nico quickly sat down in his chair and looked at Dionysus, who was examining Hestia's card. 'How many cards do you have, that are already signed?' The god asked. 'Just this one. I saw Hestia by the hearth in camp, and I decided that, eh, you, where the closest person after that.' Nico grinned. Dionysus looked at him with a poker face. 'No, I am not doing that,' he said, and looked away. 'Please?' Nico asked. Dionysus rolled his eyes. 'You want all of them signed, right? I will sign your card if you get all other gods to sign...' 'I accept that challenge! Bye!' Nico swiftly walked out of the big house.
Asking his dad to sign was easy. He looked at his son, and just signed. Persephone rolled her eyes. She said 'no' at first, but signed after her husband asked her to do so. 'Hades likes you, you know, that's why I'm signing. There's no other reason.' She threw the card at him and walked away. Nico shadow-travelled out of the Underworld, and appeared in Poseidon's castle. He waved his binder in front of the seagods face. Luckily, he understood and quickly signed, before grabbing his arms and dragging him up to the surface. Nico gasped and sucked the air into his lungs. He thanked Poseidon and shadow travelled away again. He appeared into a MacDonald's. Sadly, Will was there as well.
'Have you been shadow-travelling around?' He asked. Nico shrugged. 'How did you know I would be here?' He asked. Will sighed and hugged him. 'You always travel here when you're tired, You silly goose,' he said, 'come. I'll get my dad to sign his card.' Will got the card of Apollo out of the binder. He waited for a minute, and then also grabbed the card of Artemis. 'I'll see you in camp. And eat something. With vegetables and fruit,' Will added. He kissed his boyfriend on the head and walked out of the MacDonald's. Nico sighed. 'He was just suggesting something, right?' He thought. He walked up to the counter and ordered some food. He sat down, tried to take a bite, and was immediately disturbed by Ares and Hera. 'So, we heard that Dionysus would sign your stupid card of all of us signed?' Ares thundered. Nico nodded. Hera grabbed a pen and signed her card. Ares did the same. 'Make sure he does as he promised,' Ares added. Both of them disappeared out of the restaurant. Nico quickly ate his food and walked away. He tried to go back to camp, but a gust of wind scooped him up and brought him into a garden. Athena and Demeter were standing there. 'So. Ares and Hades have already signed your cards?' Demeter said with glaring eyes. 'Y-yes,' Nico mumbled. Athena got her card and wrote her name on it. Demeter almost tore the card apart, that's how furiously she was writing. 'My daughter said she told you he signed because of Hades. I write because of her. Have fun,' Demeter told Nico. The goddesses disappeared. Nico quickly travelled to camp, and hoped the gods couldn't find him there. While he walked through camp, people were whispering. A few Hermes and Hephaestus kids walked up to Nico. 'Hey, Nico, our dads heard about your signing session. Maybe we can get them to sign. Nico gave the kids his cards and walked further. He was stopped by Will and a lady. Will gave Nico the cards signed by Artemis and Apollo. The woman grabbed the card with Aphrodite, and signed it. She waved, and disappeared. 'How did you get Aphrodite to come with you?' Nico asked. 'All the gods pretty much heard about your quest. If you don't sign, you're pretty much seen as a total heartless monster. Since Hades and Persephone signed - they usually don't do that. Also, Hestia asked everyone to sign. And it's Hestia. Most people listen to her.' 'Great,' Nico said, taking the cards from the Hermes and Hephaestus cabin in his hands. 'Like, everyone listens to Hestia you say? Because I have everyone accept...' thunder was heard everywhere, and Zeus appeared out of nowhere. He looked at Nico, who sunk to one knee. Zeus pulled the binder out of Nico's hands, and signed his card. He disappeared again. Nico smiled and turned to Will. 'Now I got everyone. Want to walk me to the big house?'
Dionysus flipped the binder with cards. He looked at Nico. 'How even...? You know what, Let it go.' He signed the card and walked upstairs. Nico high-fived Will and hugged. They walked outside. Will, Nico and Nico's binder with Mythomagic Cards signed by the gods.
