Pounce :3

An aesthetic for a Jade dating a Rose.

No images are mine, but if you’d like any links, please let me know.

Me, stricken blind and driven mad by the eldritch chaos so many wildly different ideas would cause in a single story:

ungrateful, wait with eagerness for the day of their fathers’ deaths (seneca’s de beneficiis)

travel everywhere, take up agriculture instead of letting nature provide (tibullus 1.3)

carp at their parents, praise evil-doers and their violent deeds (hesiod, works and days)

spend too much time talking about philosophy and pretending to be greek to fight wars (plutarch, life of cato the elder)

bad at riding horses (horace, odes 3.24)

can’t lift boulders (homer, iliad 20)

9. only care about snappy one-liners and ignore good periodic Ciceronian prose (Quintilian, IO 10)

9. take up stupid trendy fads like vegetarianism (Seneca the Younger’s father yelled at him about this, apparently)

Bottom who knows damn well he’s not gonna moan the name “Carl”:
