"I think I know what you mean," he mused softly, gaze growing distant as his eyes turned down to the floor. "It's... hard, learning things about your parents you'd rather not know."
Or realizing things about them that had been in front of you all along, Apollo thought, trying not to let his own bitterness toward Zeus cloud this moment. Of course, things that were in front of you all along wasn't Will's issue — That would have required Apollo being there to begin with. "And trying to reconcile that with who you thought they were."
