#anytime the THOIGHT crosses his mind he mentally apologizes to Romano

[renonv]

Please tell us more about Germany and Spain being dropped in the past somehow. I’m so curious about how Ludwig would react as Rome’s biggest fan and Antonio just wanting to get home lol

HAJSJSHS THANK YOU FOR BEING CURIOUS ❤️ I got some ramblings under the cut, and I’ll draw more for this idea laterrr

I think in this scenario Ludwig would NOT be super helpful outside of having some general knowledge of history / minor culture, but even that knowledge is just over powered by the sheer “holy shit I’m in Ancient Rome” of it all. He just honestly wants to explore.

He’s having a great time, he’s living THE dream, and probably honestly thinks that it is all just an actual dream. So needless to say his self preservation and normal calculated approach is out the window. This guy is willing to do whatever he can to talk to Rome. Maybe to even try and experience the ancient art form of wrestling.

Antonio having lived under the Roman rule and witnessing what the old cunt can do, is NOT trying to fuck around and find out. Especially since they were clocked as countries, and are on the older side, they pose a more potential threat to Rome. He is STRESSED out and the fact that Ludwig is having his tourist fan moment is not helping. He doesn’t love having to be in the position of the serious leader, but will make sure the two of them make it back home (somehow). In the moments where they aren’t actively being hunted, he shares some ancient lore with Ludwig :3
