I find it so very interesting that Sejanus knew that coryo was excited for the Plinth Prize and told him not to get his hopes up.
One could only say he would’ve told him that if he knew the Snows were having money trouble orrrr
the much funnier option, Coryo and him talked/have talked with each other.
It makes it seem like Sejanus and Coryo had spoken/been friendly before. Especially when you take a look at the rest of their interactions in school.
—Sejanus, out of all places, chooses to sit next to Coryo during the announcement of the Plinth Prize and during Class.
—Sejanus, out of all people chooses to be nice to Coryo, unlike with Arachne etc etc.
—Again, during lunch, Sejanus takes the seat in front of Coryo like he’s done it before.
It just makes you wonder, this “delusion” from Sejanus that they’re friends had to come from somewhere. Coryo being nice to him. Yes of course. But the rest of it. Sejanus knowing personal details, that he had high hopes for the plinth prize, that he sits next to in class, that Highbottom believes they are friends and Coriolanus can try to control/soothe him during the games at Marcus’s appearance.
If none of this makes sense it’s because my thoughts are all jumbled i need to consume all canon content and jump into their brains.
