28. Pillows


In his cabin, Nico's pillows were gray. He liked that better than white pillows because white stained easily. But then you couldn't see drool – but that wasn't the point.

Nico needed at least two pillows (but he had four) to be comfortable. One body pillow and one for his head. Nico really, really liked body pillows. Before, Bianca and him would share the same bed. But because it was always cold, they needed each other for warmth. The body pillow was just a memory, a routine that Nico had fallen into.

During quests and such, he always hugged the nearest thing next to him.
