Jasico, particular pre-HoO Jasico, as a dynamic is inherently hilarious because it almost always inevitably results in Nico just wholesale ditching the Greeks. He's Roman now, babey! Surrounded by Romans. CHB is naught but a passing memory and he's never going back. he's got Jason he's got Hazel and Reyna and Frank and he is all set.
#pjo#riordanverse#nico di angelo#jasico#its also funnier for me personally cause in 90% of my aus where Nico ends up living in CJ he gets a job as a mailman#just cause idk it seems like a fitting job for him in New Rome. dude's just helping people via delivering their mail. he gets to travel etc#and the idea of just non-HoO au Nico happening to bump into Annabeth in the city cause. yknow. she lives there.#and just them going ''oh Nico i havent seen you in years what are you doing here?'' ''oh i live here and got a job as mailman'' ''...what''

i have to be the best dressed person standing in the corner of a party like this 🧍
#hmmmm do u know when u have like. Objective Personal Wins but it still feels embarassing#like i went to a party by myself where i knew nobody and i had conversations with four different people#and i had to navigate a stressful transit situation on the way there#and now im going home because i feel satisfied#like this is objectively a win but i still feel embarassed for not like. idk#u know how sometimes u walk into an environment and are like oh. OH. this is a difficult social environment#anyway i think i deserve to callthis a personal win#rome wasnt built in a day and etc#trb.txt#anyway i was rlly hot. not posting pics but i was hot

@magnvsmaximvs' tags: #wait OP I need to know everything about the dmbj AU NOWWWWWWW
TECHNICALLY. there are two DMBJ AUs. there's a modern AU of the AU because I think Sulla should be allowed to wear sunglasses, but the Ancient Rome one can be summed up as: Crassus, Pompey, and Caesar fuck around and find out that there's Another Rome underneath the Current Rome. there are coffins! coffins that should definitely be left untouched. unfortunately, Cato is here also. he's going to open the hell out of those coffins and it's going to be a Reunion the Sound of Providence South Sea King's Tomb situation with the Things Inside The Coffins
there's a scene where Crassus is prying open a door and Pompey is like. hey man. did you notice that the shadows here are acting kind of weird. maybe don't do that. and Crassus replies with, 'you're a big strong man with a sword, you'll be fine,' and he's being sarcastic, but I, the writer, had to pause for a minute over that line.
#the further inside this city-tomb they go into the more 'scenes' of rome's history the visit. like awful effigies frozen in time#BUT NOT FROZEN FOR LONG BECAUSE CAESAR IS ALSO HERE BABYYYY#and crassus. crassus gets his moment where he has a moment with a mass grave

i was thinking “frank in high school getting a detention would be like that icarly episode where freddie can’t BUY a detention no matter how many rules he breaks” then i was like oh my god. icarly au with hazel leo and frank😭😭😭
#this idea literally had me on the icarly wiki refreshing on the myself lore lmfao#its been a WHILE#its funny bc leo's more techy than frank and i'd argue that frank's more violence prone than leo#but if you had to assign roles leo is clearly the sam frank's the freddie#imagine if hazel's life didn't suck so bad and she got to live like carly. no thoughts head empty new side character boyfriend each episode#the dream!#imagining a fucking new rome web channel is so funny too. in an au where they're still demigods but just going to demigod school#hazel levesque#frank zhang#leo valdez

I took my sweet time playing through @diasporatheblog these past few months and finally brought myself to finish it yesterday (so sad it's over sobs)
#diaspora game#diaspora#cog#if#interactive fiction#sangarinus#sangarinus nabor#tintabrancaart#tintabrancaocs#tintabrancaocfalgaraile#if you saw me post this twice u didnt. tumblr loves to hate me sigh sigh#anyway !!#this game waow#ancient rome is a huge fixation for me so castulia was a treat to explore and visualise#esp bc the game doesnt take place in the capital (rather in a port city which. yesssss)#okok so my fool falgaraile (falga to their friends).. they/it legend#they're a bit more on the serious side wrt personality#partly bc of the stress of their responsibilities but also bc they're fairly straightforward in their manner#it's exhausted by the wars and conflicts around clan maghnus which def contribute to the stress#refreshed and looking forward to the possibility of peace. looks at balthasar#falga's eye got eviscerated in a raid when it was a teenager so now they have a prettified prosthetic in its place#some scars on their legs too but yea#it turns out you cant big brain your way out of every fight !! and it learned the hard way lmao#but yeye gosh i used a mixture of diaspora's worldbuilding and celtiberian material culture as refs for their design#because that is where my heart lies :'D#oh and sang !! i didnt go too hard on his design because it's a little more set in stone already#i love him he's such a lil (big) guy.. my buddy my pal. mwah#i have a very strong mental image of his face so i had to give it a few tries to really nail down#im glad w how it came out !!#ahh okok i need to rest but yes i love diaspora i love the setting and characters :'D i will be replaying it while i still can

cannot stop thinking about lupa and juno's reactions to jason's death. god did juno feel it when he died? did she hear his string get cut? did she wail loud enough that all of olympus heard it? what was it like realizing the boy she loved like a son was dead? was was it like watching his father not even shed a tear? was she the one to tell lupa? and on lupa's end, how angry do you think she was? this is her pup. her youngest pup. he was so young when he first started, when juno first gave him to her? he learned how to roughhouse with her packmates. he learned to fly with her! did she snap at juno? did she scream and curse and blame juno? did she howl mournfully?
#these are his moms!!!#not very good ones but his moms nonetheless!!#when he fought krios do you think he heard their voices in his head encouraging him#'victory or death jason' lupa says in head 'die like a roman or don't die at all.' jason picks up his sword again.#krios knock his sword out of his hand and jason bares his teeth. that's okay. he doesn't nned a weapon to fight#he wrestles krios to the floor and the titan's throat is bared and it would quick and simple to rip it out but he hesitates.#normal people dont do that. his head pounds. his lady's voice exhoes in his head 'go for the kill always my champion.'#jason leans down and clamps his teeth around krios' throat and rips it out. the titans gasps pathetically underneath him#it's not enough. he can already see the wound beginning to heal so he digs his fingers into the wound and starts pulling#the neck rips quickly once he gets started and he snaps the spine as he goes. finally with one last tug the head comes clean off.#he stands up from where he's kneeling over the body and picks up the head by its hair turning around to face the legion.#there is ichor staining his mouth golden. it drips onto his armor. he lifts the head up high. the legions stares at him in shock and awe.#they look terrified he notes absently. 'VICTORY FOR ROME!' he shouts and the campers explode into loud cheering.#sorry what the fuck was that#jason grace#juno pjo#lupa pjo#hoo#hera pjo

I, Claudius Episode 9 Zeus, By Jove
Now there is something that you ought to know before he arrives, so that you won't be taken totally by surprise. We are privileged to be living at the time of the most astonishing event. The Emperor has undergone a transformation - a metamorphosis. He has become a god.
#i claudius#bbc i claudius#claudius#derek jacobi#caligula#john hurt#drusilla#antonia minot#margaret tyzack#herod agrippa#james faulkner#tiberius#there is this scene where claudius is kinda judgy towards drusilla#sort of why do you go along with his insanity#and she tells Claudius that he does the same thing#Claudius really needs to be called out more#he can be judgy self-centered prick#ancient rome#perioddramaedit

"marius force-converted Armand to christianity" says someone who's definitely read the books
#where did you find this marius who doesn't remind you every 2 sentences that#he is not and never was religious even in Rome and certainly isn't going to steer that direction any time soon

can i say smthg...
#i want iga to win this match#BUT#i would not be mad if mirra becomes someone who can contend with and beat iga regularly#obviously as an iga fan i want her to win but it's not as fun where there's no regular danger yk#and like. random losses are not as satisfying#cool putintseva beat her. ok. kalinskaya? sure. qinwen? yeah go on girl i can get behind that#but it's not the same as like a true rivalry#we've not had an igaryna match since rome and rome was nawt good lol#madrid was incredible and i just want *that* more often#even if it means iga has to lose more#so if that's mirra. i would lowkey love

going from the late Roman Republic to 4th century CE Roman Empire but skipping several centuries in-between the two is really creating a lot of 'guy who's only heard of x: wow this sure is giving x!' situations. what do you mean this guy kept gratian's body and didn't even use his head as a prop. you're telling me gratian had a window of opportunity for sole power and didn't go full caligula. TRAGIC. theodosius there's a gap in your life that’s kind of giving cassius. I refuse to read anything covering the 2nd and 3rd centuries, so this will continue
#the 5th century does not exist to me either#anyway Ive come to a decision on where to post the later roman empire stuff. it will be here#with it's own tag. there was a moment when I thought it would go on my other blog bc of the Christian saints#but I kind of want to fight basil in a parking lot and I'm going to start wielding a baseball bat#like my God this doctinal debate is stupid as hell. I'm not exploring any of that erotically. hostility only#mostly I'm interested in what the roman emperor's are up to and this is my Rome blog

Can you imagine percabeth children growing up in New Rome where everything is clean and orderly and thought-out and then your parents send you away to the summer camp they went to as kids and you think, cool. My mom’s an Olympus-renowned architect and my dad is a former praetor. This must be like some elite, fancy camp, better than camp Jupiter. And then you show up and half of it is a strawberry farm and there’s wild woods with monsters (“only for battle practice!”) and fawns (no, satyrs) and everything is so disorganized compared to Camp Jupiter and you’re just like. Huh.
#this is the headcanon where either before or after or during their time in the legion their parents pull some strings#and get them granted leave to go to CHB#because it’s important to their parents#its part of their heritage#pjo#Percy Jackson and the olympians#percabeth children#percabeth#camp half blood#camp jupiter#new Rome
