me: i have made my peace with hbo rome’s historical inaccuracies and come to appreciate (some of) them
also me: VORENUS GETS ANTONY’S ICONIC IDES MOMENT?
#like…..i get it!! really i do!!!#the OC has GOT to pay off.#but lmaooooo that the conspirators have a longggg chat about what to do with LUCIUS VORENUS.#plz. these men don’t even know what a “lucius vorenus” is.#and not ONE word (that i caught) about what they’re going to do about antony!!!!#like the show is like. antony is caesar’s right hand man!!!#BUT not in this ep so we’re NOT going to worry about him.#it’s fine. some debt collector will come collect him or something on the ides. the lion tamers need their money.#but that secret that niobe has been keeping?? WOO BOY.#about to pay off narratively baby!!!#i say this entirely with affection. i fucking love this show.#it just REALLY jumped out at me on this watch. how like. obvious vorenus is as antony stand-in and an echo of him at certain points.#sometimes the writing is just….heavy handedly inserting their original characters into the plot#sometimes it pays off and sometimes it’s truly….something else entirely.#so i just throw my hands up and go ok!!!!!
