[Following him through hell is a startingly non-metaphorical possibility when you're dealing with Nico!! In any case, it hadn't fully sunk in yet that he was without his powers, but now that it's been said aloud, it's obvious to Nico that that's what had happened. He seems to think about it for a moment. Demigod powers can be nice sometimes, really, when he'd first been introduced to the idea he'd thought it was really cool. But having them, having Hades for a father, hadn't it brought him far more trouble than it had good things?]
