[ Positive reinforcement hits harder with this one, and Nico's stuck between an astonished 'they think I'm cool?' and a much more dour 'yeah, they think a crack in the ground is cool, but they're gonna see what you really are.'
Still, it's enough to remind him that the rules aren't so set in stone here. There's a lot of different "metahumans" here. It's not just gods, demigods, and the various creatures of Greco-Roman mythology, he thinks as he starts climbing a drainpipe downwards. Maybe it's pointy ear kids and tentacle puppet kids charging into the fight as good guys, and that's OK -
Then the girl jumps off the roof screaming poetry like she got on the wrong side of the Apollo cabin at Camp Halfblood. That's... nice.
Whatever, he needs to concentrate if he's going to control something this big. And that hole in the ground? It's gotten big. You could drop an entire RV into it, were it not for the enormous skeleton clawing out. He should probably warn them about that. ]
The skeleton's on our side!
[ Stegosaurus ungulatus. Over 3 meters high and nearly 10 meters long, and the skeleton sways on its feet for a moment while the last small bones click into place. Nico's balanced himself on a second floor window ledge to keep close, but safe. He's not about to rush into a large group of machines with a sword meant for monsters and mortals, no thanks. He's directing the dinosaur to do it for him, headbutting into the fray, tail-tossing the smaller machines at the nearby buildings. ]
