#gore cw #technically there isn't really anything particularly gorey in these caps BUT the scene itself is like. dismemberment and guts. so #gore by implication i guess #tbh rome is gore so it feels more like a fork found in kitchen type of thing. this is a statement regarding the narrative theme #comparatives tag #starz spartacus tag #gladiator tag #or whatever my 'watch starz spartacus agenda' tag was #ANYWAY libertus is one of my favorite episodes in the show. absolute banger

A BROTHER IS AN IMMEASURABLE THING

“We are one. As we share the glory of our victories, so too should we share the pain of our defeat. In this way we grow closer, we grow stronger.”

Cattleya Killer (2023), Richard Lattimore’s introduction to the Orestia (in Aeschylus, edited by David Grene and Richard Lattimore)

#cattleya killer #movie club tag #comparatives tag #godddddd I love this show so so much

This might just be more confusing than not trying to explain anything in my tlt AU tbosas fic, The Love Perfected By Death, but I suppose if I actually wanted to explain, I would use my own words and not a collage of quotes. (The Locked Tomb spoilers below)

Bonus:

(also I don't think that what happens with Camilla and Pal is like ideal/a victory. they were in a tough spot, but I do love them choosing mutual destruction over going on without the other <3. "Camilla Hect, yet another of devotion's casualties" indeed. I'll stop talking before I become a Locked Tomb blog... never going to be over realizing I had Max kill Marius in this though... Imagine Gnaeus begging for death too... and Felix left in the dark...)

#no one asked but i need to explain myself. bookending it with these gifs because i made them. i might as well reuse them as much as possible #also gnaeus eye color mention but i couldn't find a good way to mention that necromancer and cavs swap eye colors after ascension so since #they're related and have the same eye color... it wouldn't change lol. felix-festus are different their eyecolors get to blend #tbosas x tlt #abyssal stuff #felix ravinstill #festus creed #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #tbosas #fic: the love perfected by death #comparatives tag #webweaving
