the state of wanting to know or learn about something or someone.

The least to say was that Nico was confused. Like completely confused. A Manticore (Nico still couldn't wrap his head around it), Percy (that seemed to be his name) was a real life demi-god as they call it, Artemis and Apollo (two freaking gods!), he could go on and on about the things he learned that day.

But Nico accepted it? Gods and goddesses were cool! One of his parents was a god according to the Hunters, so that certainly meant he had powers right? Oh, he couldn't wait to explore them! And Percy was cool too! He was a son of Poseidon which meant he could control water and stuff. That was incredible!

Nico noticed Percy was feeling gloomy though. It must've been about that blonde girl, and for some strange reason, Nico had felt a little jealous of her. He wished someone would care about him that much. There was Bianca, but she had left him and joined Artemis. He loved his sister more than anything in this world but hey, at least he was going to have a new home at this camp they're talking about! Nico smiled widely, staring at his collection of Mythomagic figures. He only needed Hades to complete the collection.

"Wow, Apollo is hot."

"He's the sun god," he heard Percy say. Nico had to suppress a giggle. Percy had a funny sense of humor, he was liking him more and more already! He ignored the slight tint of pink on his cheeks as he got inside Apollo's car.
