[ Apollon likely has a lot of history - as most gods do. If these ones are anything like the ones from his world, they'll also be extremely set in their ways. ]
We may have a tough battle on our hands, trying to out-stubborn a god. But I feel we're up to the task considering who we've had to deal with already.
[ It seems like Apollon wants help but is holding himself back from getting it. Nico knows what that's like. ]

Especially considering that the only one that can really decide if he'll let us help him is him.
[They can force themselves on him all they want, but unless Apollon is ready to accept help, none of it will get through.
He raises his hand for a fistbump.]
I'm stubborn as a mule, but gotta say, it's a relief having another mule to back me up. Especially you.

[ One has to want the help in the first place, they can only do so much for Apollon.
Ah, that has Nico laughing. Though he... is a little confused about the fistbump. He raises his fist but... now what? ]
Not sure I like the idea of being a "mule". I'd accept a horse, pegasus or hellhound.

[... nico, nico please. akira grabs his wrist with his other hand, then brings their fists together. like this.]
Are pegasi or hellhounds known for being particularly stubborn?
no subject
I don't understand why people do this...
[ What happened to the good, old high-five? ]
Well, both are in their own ways. But you can ask Percy for more insight on pegasi seeing as how he can understand them.

[He pulls back with his fist and makes an exploding motion with his hand, complete with sound effect.]
The horses thing seems kind of random, given all his other stuff seems water-related.
no subject
I still don't understand why people think this is cool in this day-and-age.
[ But he will at least make the motion, even if he refuses to do the sound effect. ]
Poseidon created horses so he can understand them. As can his descendants.
