Solangelo exists because Rick wasn't about to let his first gay character end the last book of HoO with no relationship. I honestly didn't see any chemistry between them and found Will to be bland. I think Nico can do better.

While I don't ship Reyna/Nico, I can see the thought behind it. It's like watching a show with two guy friends who do everything together and have a deep relationship but one guy goes with a bland, never before seen, female love interest. Even though that guy is canonically straight and will not love the other guy, it doesn't stop people from shipping them together. Reyna and Nico have an infinitely deeper relationship than Nico and Will. I think the deepest thing Nico and Will have going for them is that Will calls Nico Death Boy.

Not my least favorite pairing though. I have to give that to Caleo. Calypso turned into an obnoxious tsundere and I hate tsunderes. If you don't know what tsundere is, think of a girl who constantly puts down and bullies a certain boy by calling him names and insulting his abilities but only does this because she actually really likes him and doesn't know how to show it. Tsunderes are brats that will refuse to show they care about the person they love (accept on rare occasions) but expects the love interest to just know. Tsunderes are tempermental with mood swings. Sometimes they are even physically violent (they might slap a boy if he doesn't read her mind about what she wants at that particular moment).

Both Leo and Calypso's characters were ruined when they became an item. Calypso became a brat worthy of Mean Girls and Leo became a beyond selfish person who yells at Percy, lies about the cure and abandons his friends without a word.

Favorite ship? Jason/Brick
