#Augustus Caesar

[floatyflowers]

what kind of yandere would caesar augustus be? can you give highlights of his attitude, personality, and behaviour as a yandere to reader who has isekaied in his time as a roman emperor? thanks so much. Btw i enjoyed reading emperor geta and emperor caracella 💕💝

You kissed the picture of a statue of Augustus Caesar in history textbook before drawing hearts over the pictures in a playful manner.

Which led to you ending up in Ancient Rome, in Augustus Caesar's reign.

And because of your strange clothes and frightened attitude, you were dragged to the emperor, accused of being an intruder.

The emperor spoke to you in Latin while you only stared at him in fear and confusion.

From your expressions and reactions, Octavian realized that you are harmless.

He ordered to have your things taken away, and for you to be taken and clothed in Roman clothes, as he decided to have you under his care until he understands who exactly are you.

No one has sparked his curiosity like you.

In less than two months you were taught Latin.

But through those two months, you also managed to build many friendships.

Even with the young daughter of the emperor, Julia, the eight-years-old child adores you.

But now, you are forced to stand in front of Augustus and speak to him in the language you were taught.

"I'm not from here." you admit.

"I have noticed the first time from your improper clothing, I wish to know everything about you."

"Even if what I'm going to tell you is considered madness?"

With a nod from him, you begin telling him everything about yourself, and how you found yourself in this timeline.

This was a huge mistake on your part, as this made the Roman emperor obsessed with you and knowing about the future.

Everything you needed, was granted.

Octavian would spend long hours with you in his chambers, discussing many different matters.

You have so much knowledge, something he respects in a person.

When in reality, the knowledge you got is only from three sources, books, school, and YouTube.

However, sometimes he feels like you act like a child who needs to be corrected.

"Do you have a husband in your timeline?"

One day while having a walk in the gardens Augustus inquires about your marital situation.

"Yes." you lie, feeling uncomfortable under his sharp gaze.

You are not naive to the way he is interested to you and the hints he gives here and there.

But you would rather have boundaries.

"I suppose he must miss you dearly, he is unfortunate in many ways."

"Unfortunate, how so?" you ask, curiosity peeking.

"His wife is going to marry the emperor of Rome."

Your heart beats raises in fear, as you try to move away, but Caesar grabs your left wrist to stop you.

"I'm married, this would be considered infidelity." you say with a disgusted tone at how he still chooses to pursue you.

"In this timeline, you are not married as your husband does simply not exist yet."

jedtaivus and their big limbless stone son 🥺😭❤️

Augustus starting to refer to Jed as "Dad" and Jed just starts sobbing. "It's enough to make a tiny grown man cry!"

He's so small his body can't handle all the emotions

Octavian was right, he really does look like his ancestor and namesake. Augustus Caesar (otherwise known as Octavian, the founder of the Roman Empire) really does look blond and thin and wiry. At least one version of him did, at least.

story time! when i first came out as trans to my uncle and told him my name (august), his first question was "after Augustus?" And I said "yeah" (cause i am lol) and he gave me a fist bump and me being trans wasn't mentioned for the rest of the conversation, which was about who was the best roman emperor.

Saw you're taking an ancient civilization course, wondering if you could tell me any things you found interesting/surprising??

I think the most surprising thing is how much has survived since antiquity! Of course there’s also a lot that we are missing, but there’s a lot we still have and it’s quite a variety of things. Like, architecture, coins, statues, literature, vases…

It was also quite surprising getting to know sort of how much things vary in Ancient Greece from city-state to city-state — it makes sense, but I think we really tend to think of Ancient Greek as one thing, which it wasn’t.

I’ve been researching gender roles recently and that’s super interesting, both in terms of women definitely not being as oppressed as we make them out to be (although it’s quite tragic that a lot of women’s work was weaving, and due to the nature of that medium the vast majority of it has not survived) and also the way that it was seen as very possible for men to be victims of SA, men were allowed to be vulnerable and cry, and the way that we talk about Ancient Greek homosexuality is not at all the way that it actually is. Sappho wrote about men too! Female Dionysian cults are really cool, the Maenadic cult especially.

It’s kind of weird to see the way Rome differs from Greece and the ways that they’re similar, like, all the cultural things they took from Greece while also absolutely shitting on them. I was also pleasantly surprised by how much I actually like Augustus.

I didn’t know a whole lot about Cleopatra or Ancient Egypt prior to studying this so it was interesting to learn she was in power at the same time as Julius Caesar, but also that she was actually technically Greek? Alexander the Great, the things you did lmao

Speaking of: the fact that Alexandria in Egypt, where the library was, was not the only Alexandria. Once again, Alexander the Great, the things you did.

This was really rambly, if there’s anything anyone wants me to go to into detail about (from this or otherwise) please let me know!

The Ides of March

On this day, the 15th of March, in 44 BCE, Julius Caesar was assassinated by a group of about 60 senators. Seventeen years later, in 27 BCE, his adopted son and heir, Octavian, became the first Roman Emperor, taking the title Augustus Caesar.
