#wrong way up the cursus honorum mate.

NEVER MIND I’m so sorry I just scrolled down and saw your post about Antony brokering it 😭 it’s such a one-degree of separation weirdness situation, I saw you mention her and immediately remembered your “number one at being number two” tag because it drives me feral

it's wild because it's not like agrippa is separate and unconnected to the proscriptions, literally octavian's best friend and the guy that he deployed into Any Situation, yet by all accounts agrippa had a really good relationship with his father-in-law. i also feel something about the coins released after actium which show him with a beard, potentially an indication that his wife had died and he was grieving her... and that he could've married a patrician woman but he chose to marry a woman of equestrian class! drives me craaaazy, the most normal guy in all of rome and his massive fucking hard on for octavian's success. i think they should kiss.
