eventually I'll get to draw it, but the way that lucullus goes, 'ah. you get it. it's like falling into quicksand only you don't know that anything is wrong, but once you leave, it all becomes clear. anyway,' and walks right back into the house that crassus half ran out of. sometimes it's less about whether or not you will be eaten and more about who you will let take a bite out of you

#its lucullus again and again and again choosing sulla for some fucking reason #and eventually sulla choosing him back when it matters the most #also lucullus and crassus are the same kind of administrative power houses you need when you're doing state building #honestly half the reason that the pompey and caesar fell apart is that neither of them are particularly paper work people #pompey absolutely was not and caesar was off doing military campaigns. so. you NEED. a third person. who will do the paperwork #for sulla et al that was lucullus. then later crassus.#failure. to understand that the boring part of the government. is important. will lead to overlapping conspiracies taking out emperors late #so. in conclusion. i got nothing. there is no conclusion. im writing comics that is all
