Oddly specific details Sulla and Octavian have in common:
Sort of but not exactly blond
Supposedly handsome/striking as a young man
Wrote poetry and memoirs
Liked cosplay/dressing up
Family fortune was lost/stolen before he could inherit it, then he got his lucky break through another relative's will.
Thought he was chosen by the gods to save Rome
Favorite gods included Apollo and Venus
Very religious/superstitious, believed in prophecies.
Ambitious but crabby as a subordinate, and likely to cause trouble
(Probably false) rumors of assassinating people early on to advance his career
Sent his subordinate on a long mission to acquire a fleet with which to attack Greece
Came to power in part by defeating an eastern monarch in Greece, but who was not actually ruler of Greece, and returned to Rome with serious money problems
Suspiciously close relationship with said subordinate
Marched on Rome
Fought multiple civil wars
Proscribed enemies
Desecrated corpses
Dictator or had dictator-like power
Enemies included people called Marius and Cinna
Claimed to be restoring the republic/upholding the authority of the senate but permanently changed how the state was run
Probably bisexual
Wild allegations about his sex life
Daughter slept around and was involved in a major scandal
Worked with someone named Lepidus who would later fail at insurrection
Intensely loyal to his close friends but vicious toward enemies
Story reads like an evil overlord who actually won
Hmm...
#re: marius & cinna - one of caesar's assassins' allies was a cinna and a 'pseudo-marius' briefly caused trouble in rome in the aftermath#octavian#lucius cornelius sulla#jlrrt speaks

Frank: I don't know what's worse.
Frank: The fact that I used to think I was related to Octavian,
Frank: or the fact that I'm related to Percy.
Percy: *drinking pure lemon juice* Why is that a bad thing?

--or perhaps,' continues Octavian. 'You're angry that I've outplayed you at your own game because you were too busy fucking in your old master's house to notice anything that was going on around you.'
He smiles suddenly, bright and wide. 'Enjoy the party, Marcus.'
this scene takes place sometime after philippi, and was originally just some historical fiction I was writing last year for fun focusing on antony, octavian, and agrippa. then I got stressed out watching the new season of a show, started drawing while it played, and ended up turning it into a short comic lmao
the dialogue in this scene is referencing this bit out of Suetonius:
In early youth he incurred the reproach of sundry shameless acts. Sextus Pompey taunted him with effeminacy; Mark Antony with having earned adoption by his uncle through unnatural relations; and Lucius, brother of Mark Antony, that after sacrificing his honour to Caesar he had given himself to Aulus Hirtius in Spain for three hundred thousand sesterces, and that he used to singe his legs with red-hot nutshells, to make the hair grow softer. What is more, one day when there were plays in the theatre, all the people took as directed against him and loudly applauded the following line, spoken on the stage and referring to a priest of the Mother of the Gods, as he beat his timbrel:
"See'st how a wanton's finger sways the world?"
Suetonius Augustus 68
what a fun group of people!! they should all eat each other
#octavian#mark antony#komiks tag#roman empire tag#WOW it's been a minute since i got to use that tag#the bit of my own writing (technically all of this is my own writing but in the text part of the post) is referencing#some shit about antony letting the conspirators go ahead and assassinate caesar for his own ends#which is fun to think about bc octavian proceeded to pull a similiar move but better#the gods favor one of you for sure lmao#i favor neither of you except for where i sided with octavian bc his narrative potential appeals to me more

Octavian's character will never not be funny to me. The man sacrifices stuffed animals in an attempt to see the future. He died because his flipping toga got caught on a weapon and he launched himself when he pulled the lever. His very existence is hilarious.
