*draws alcibiades in his little hoplite outfit, gives him a kiss on the cheek, a pat on the bum, sends him on an expedition*

( his helmet has enamel decorations bc he wasn't yet rich enough to get a whole dionysian scene carved on it. I also debated a lot with myself whether to give him a corinthian style helmet or an open one, because a corinthian would be to protect his face but I also think he'd be vain enough to want the enemy to see him when he killed them or smth. But I'm imagining the older, general-arc Alcibiades using his helmet very sparingly, as a power move. )

#ruffles his helmet fluff thing #what do you call the λοφιο in english #no idea #crest?#hair crest?#he had so much fun nearly dying in battle that he decided to keep the war going for another 25 years #he was so excited to share a tend with socrates at potidaea #does socrates snore at night #i think he would snore #the real question is did they snuggle when it was super cold and snowing #alcibiades #ancient greece
