[Nanaki is all too happy to leave it at that, and she leaves Leo sitting there without another word. In fact, she doesn't talk to him for several days after that, choosing instead to avoid the Hephaestus cabin in general and focus on other things.
But as much as she tries to avoid it, what Leo said to her keeps sticking in her mind, and she finds herself more and more interested in the boy.
Okay, maybe 'interested' isn't the best word for that. She's definitely curious about him, but not so much that she approaches him about it. Not right away, at least. She watches from afar, seeing how he interacts with others, and it picks at her curiosity even more.
Eventually her curiosity gets the better of her, and she finally gives in. About a week after the previous incident, Nanaki finally approaches him, though she tries to do it without drawing too much attention to herself. She doesn't want anyone else in camp listening in on their conversation.
She chooses to approach him after dinner, when everyone is done eating and going back to their own things but before Leo gets too far away.]
