I've just about heard it all. Wouldn't be surprised if someone dreamed that one up.
[Sort of like how having similar DNA to a pair of guys somehow makes you a part of their secret hunter world, and that he should welcome them with open arms despite them helping to damn him to Hell. The cynical edge to his smile hints at how used he is to facing down ridiculous presumptions.
In comparison, Adam really does appreciate that these divine people (or whatever) aren't as bad as they could be. He'd given Percy flak on the subject, but he can see they have a human side--the ones he's met act more human than some humans. He wouldn't have believed it if someone had just plopped him down next to Nico and said "this is a demi-god." The proof is in the little things, the way they smile, the way they talk. And, he supposes, also in the big things. The not killing or torturing him is a big improvement from most non-humans.
Mention of Hades means little to him, as a matter of fact. It dredges up memories of Disney movies and cheesy pop culture, and Adam just lifts his eyebrows a little in response. More recently, Hades' name had come up in his conversation with Percy. That, more than anything, attracts his attention.]
He's the guy who deals with your underworld. [Right?] I heard he might be the closest thing to an expert you got on souls.
