#marcus antonius natm

In Kingdoms I think this sums up Octavius and Antonius' past relationship...

[historical-kitten]

Okay mutuals, nerd with me a minute. Yesterday at work I literally was paid to talk about the historical figures of Cleopatra, Marcus Antonius, and Octavian!

I was so excited to let my Classical Humanities side out. 😂

However, at the end we were talking about who you would rather hang out with.

For my NatM mutuals, Octavius was not the same historically. XDDD

It is: Marcus

Or

Octavian

can you explain the shepard au??? i’m interested

Of course! I'm more than happy to have the opportunity to explain shepherd AU and ramble about it! 😁

Alright so shepherd AU is basically an alternate universe of mine where Jedediah exists in the same timeline as Octavius did, in ancient Rome. In this AU Jedediah is a roman citizen or rather a shepherd living in the countryside near Rome and that's why I named this AU as "the shepherd AU". They'll meet when Octavius brings his army in the countryside to build a temporary military camp there where his soldiers can be trained. In this AU things are also gravely different than what is historically accurate. For example in this AU Octavius isn't the emperor of Rome, but his adoptive father Julius Caesar is who is alive and well (and instead of him being a coldhearted man he's more like an annoying dad who's constantly asking Octavius if he has his eyes on someone already). Octavius is only the leader of an army, a legatus, and that's enough for him. Marcus Antonius is Julius Caesar's heir and Octavius is in good terms with him (unlike what it was in real life) they're basically brothers. I already have the plot of this AU ready so all I really need to do right now is do some planning before I start writing a fic about this.

I hope my incoherent rambling of this AU made at least some sense.

He died, but he's still smug. Did Octavian have all his statues destroyed because they were all smirking at him? Or maybe he resented how he himself looked haunted in statuary. 😂

@thevintageducky made this amazing gif and I will never stop using it whenever I can. 😂💀
