tahol, cassius! tahol!! etc or something. let him off that leash you have him on, brutus.

an unfinished scene out of the conspiracy comic vault! for context, there's a scene I wrote just after the assassination of caesar where antony is half in shadow, half out of it, with a wide smile on his face and brutus is the only one who catches it and realizes he's miscalculated very very badly. unfortunately brutus was not cut out doing conspiracy on the fly, and cassius' greatest flaw was letting brutus have his way

A Conspirator’s Realism: Cassius Settles for the Second Rank, Luciano Canfora

the meeting referenced here is described in Cassius Dio 44.34, and like cassius, lepidus was married to one of brutus' sisters. which is. something.
