DialogNico: Jason!
DialogNico: You okay?
DialogJason: I'm good,
DialogJason: Just sucker punched...
DialogCupid: *off screen* Oh...did you expect me to play fair?
DialogCupid: Oh...did you expect me to play fair?
DialogJason: Is this guy LOVE or DEATH?
DialogCupid: *off screen* We are not so different.
DialogCupid: Except
DialogCupid: *off screen* Death is often times kinder.
DialogNico: We just want the scepter!
DialogNico: We're trying to stop Gaia!
DialogNico: Are you on the god's side or--
DialogJason: Nico!!
DialogCupid: *off screen* It's a costly thing...
DialogCupid: *off screen* Looking on the true face of love
DialogCupid: My wife Psyche learned that lesson.
DialogCupid: She was brought here eons ago
DialogCupid: When this site was still my palace.
DialogCupid: We met only in the dark
DialogCupid: She was never to look upon me
DialogCupid: But she couldn't stand the mystery.
DialogCupid: One night
DialogCupid: she lit a candle.
DialogCupid: And beheld it to my face as I slept
DialogJason: You were THAT ugly?
DialogCupid: *offscreen* Haha..I was too handsome, I'm afraid.
DialogCupid: *offscreen*: A mortal cannot gaze upon of the true appearance of a god
DialogCupid: *off screen* Without suffering the consequences
DialogJason: Nico!
DialogNico: Enough games...
DialogNico: Show Yourself!
DialogNico *offscreen*: Stop!!
DialogNico: Stop!
DialogNico: It's me you want!
DialogNico: Leave Jason Alone!
DialogCupid: Ohhh
DialogCupid: Poor nico di angelo...
DialogCupid: Do you know what YOU want
DialogCupid: much less what I want?
DialogNico: I've been to tartarus and back.
DialogNico: You don't scare me.
DialogCupid: Face me
DialogCupid: Be honest.
DialogCupid: I think I scare you very very much.
DialogJason: Nico what does he WANT?
DialogCupid: Tell him Nico di Angelo,
DialogCupid: Tell him you are a coward.
DialogCupid: Why you are always alone
DialogCupid: Tell him the real reason you left camp half blood.
