Slow motion Face Punch: 3

Episode Name Dropped by: none.

Memorable Death:  RHASKOS MY BABY!!

Favourite Line: “I’ve had my fill of games, let us leave the arena forever.”

- I seriously missed the Arena!

- Those Gladiators, I’m loving their style!

- Ha! I love all the dick measuring going on with the Romans, and the woman pulling all the strings.

- They are all so excited for the executions. Savages.

-  Okay, so I have a love/hate thing with Glaber. On one hand, he’s a dick. On the other, will people stop putting him down, geez!!!!

- “God of the Arena”    awesome.

- HOLY CRAP GANNICUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Gannicus.

-  Okay, I hadn’t watched the prequel season when I first saw s2, and I 1000% thought Oenomaus and Gannicus were sworn enemies with the way they were looking at each other.

-  I love seeing Oenomaus fight.

-  Something I hate about the effect Spartacus has on people is how they doubt themselves constantly and beg for his approval. Agron is prime example. Agron made the right call in saving their people but because Sparty is upset and most of the Gauls are dead he thinks he made the wrong choice and seeks Spartacus’ forgiveness. Seriulsy, Agron is way smarter than Sparty, who lets his emotions guide him and dammed the consequences.

- “Mistakes were made on both sides” – NO they weren’t!

- DONAR!!!!!!!!!!

- “Finally, gods show fucking favour”. I have missed Agron and his swearing.

- Donar and his axe. I love it more than I can say.

-   Agron is so adorable.

- “So the gods finally fuck me to the afterlife. Care to join me”

-  Donar and Agron are still clearly looking for a fight, which sucks because the man is no real threat. Their thirst for blood reminds me more of s3.

-  AGRON!!! I JUST, I CANT WITH THIS MAN, HE IS AMAZING!

- I love how deeply offended Agron is by being called a Gaul.

-   EAST OF THE RHINE!

-  Lucius is such a grey character for me. When I first watched, I couldn’t tell if he was friend or foe, right until the end. Even in this rewatch, I still can’t place him.

-  A split second shot of Agron and he looks like a painting, a marble statue, perfection. He is so gorgeous.

-  “You could not have made speech before swinging the last of the wine.”

-  Rhaskos is a beautiful man.

- Yeah, Ashur, to the Arena! I wish he died.

-  Something I love about Marcus and Glaber is that I never once shipped them, they were so purely bro’s that I never saw a hint or possibility of anything romantic. Even now, they are still bro’s and I respect that.

-   Does Varinius really actually want a wife? He really seems like all he wants is sex.

- Oh all the talk of the abortion is intense. Ilithyia clearly doesn’t want to, no matter how much she wants Varinius.

-  Nasir’s wound looks super CGI, like that CGI penis from s1. Not good man.

-  AGRON BY NASIR’S SIDE AND THANKING NAEVIA IS EVEYTHING. My shipper heart.

-  I love how soft Agron looks. THIS IS WHAT LOVE DOES TO YOU BABY!

-  I never considered an Agron/Naevia friendship …… still don’t think it’d work. I’m more for Nasir/Naevia.

-  “Soiled and Ruined.” = that’s really rough, but sadly understandable.

-   Sparty looks so extra spinning his sword. I know you miss your bf, but seriously calm the fuck down.

- Oh wait, Sparty doesn’t give a damn that Crixus is about to die. He’s having a hissy fit because people are praising his name anymore? Get the fuck out.

- Sparty has some bat-shit crazy ideas, but they make for good entertainment. I suppose it’s part of his charms.

-  “A woman will always be moved to protect a child.”

-   “House of Batiatus”, been a long time since we heard that.

-   I do love Lucretia knowing all about abortions though. She is such a Madame.

-  Knowing what I know all these Lucretia/Ilithyia scenes are kinda tainted….but that doesn’t stop me from loving the absolute love in Lucretia’s eyes and the trust and forgiveness in Ilithyia’s.

-  NOOOO LUCRETIA, DON’T SAVE ASHUR. Fuck you Ashur.

- “The gods yet have use of you.”

- Lucretia is such a badass woman. She is so damn intelligent.

- OHMYGODS I CLICKED PAUSE TO WRITE SOMETHING ELSE BUT IT PAUSED ON AGRON’S BEAUTIFUL FUCKING FACE WITH HIS MEGA WATT SMILE AND EYES FULL OF HAPPINESS AND LOVE!!! This is boy is precious and must be protected at all costs.

-  NAGRON BE STILL MY HEART I CAN’T TAKE IT!

-          Ahhh, look at that cupping of the cheek!

-  I do like that Sparty is super impressed with Nasir’s willingness to fight.

-          “This time you stay, and I go.”

-  HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK!!!! THAT KISS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is sweet, and shy, and full of love and affection. Agron looks so soft, just all the soft sweet things.

-   As much as I love the Nagron kiss, Nasir’s reaction is off, and totally understandable. He’s a little confused, a little wary, a little afraid, and there’s the hidden joy there too. This might be the first time someone has shown him genuine affection and he doesn’t know how to respond to it. Nasir is just learning what it means to be free, and that means feelings things he’s never allowed himself to feel. His heart is brand new and fragile. He’s scared to let anyone in like that, and I think a part of him is afraid he’ll be reduced to a warm body again. (I could go on, but I’m actually writing a fic about this! Ha!)

-  BUT ITS SO HARD TO DENY HOW MUCH AGRON LOVES NASIR!

-   I love this pairing so much.

-   “I would overtake soft voice with bold words.”

-  I honestly don’t understand how Spartacus can trust a man he’s know a few hours to lead his people to safety???? These are people he’s vowed to protect, and he’s just pawning them off like they’re nothing. None of his “Generals” are there to see these people to safety, no one he truly trusts. It’s a big ‘wtf’ for me.

- Oh gods, the camera pans to Agron when Sparty says “we have been divided” and Agron looks so ashamed. NO BABY NO, YOU DID THE RIGHT THING. FUCK SPARTACUS.

-  Gannicus sex scene, slow-mo seems a little extra. Not that it wasn’t amazing though.

-  The whore Gannicus fucked, is super freaking cute. And I know my wording is super harsh but she doesn’t have a name.

-  Gannicus has the saddest eyes I’ve ever seen.

-  OH CRAP I DIDN’T REAALISE BY THAT WHORE LOOKS LIKE SYBIL IN S3, how fitting.

- Seeing Lucretia on that balcony looking like a queen is amazing.

-   “May it crumble in our wake”

- OH FUCK YOU ASHUR!

-  I love how cautious Ilithyia is when Glaber sends the slaves away. She doesn’t wanna be alone with him. Very good instincts.

-  Oh Ilithyia, cut so deep.

-  “Have we drifted so far, from the love we once held?”

-  “You will do as your husband commands.” I am so eternally grateful not to be alive in those times.

-  Oh my gods, there is a part of me that really wants Glaber and Ilithyia to make up and be in love again. It’s a small part that comes out during good acting.

-   See, I still kinda want a Lucretia/Albinius friendship.

-   I didn’t know what the hell Varinius was saying with the Gladiators, but then I looked it up and it was the style of fighting and armour the Gladiators use. I never knew there was such structure to it, which makes it all the more amazing.

- Fuck I’ve missed the gladiator fights. They are more brutal than the battles.

-  The store room of the dead is so fucking gross. I love it.

-  The rebels popping out of the bloody water is one of the best things I’ve ever seen!

-   I really love when they have silent fights.

-   Sparty and Agron in the armour is fucking hilarious. They look like little children playing dress-up.

-  Donar is so worried about Agron! I love their friendship, and we were robbed of that brilliance.

-    I sigh at Mira/Spartacus scenes. It’s like he wants to love her, but he can’t, so he gives her lines he tells to all the rebels but his eyes are little softer so she thinks they’re in love. My queen deserves more.

-  “If any of you hold faith in any gods now would be the time to fucking entreat them.”

-  “It is an honour to stand beside you on the sands.” THE RESPECT CRIXUS HAS FOR OENOMAUS IS BEAUTIFUL.

- Crixus can’t hide how excited he is to fight in the Arena again, and I love it.

-   The crowd throws lettuce. What did lettuce ever do to you? and seriously, these people are meant to be poor…why you throwing away food you cant afford?

- Agron walks more naturally in the armour than Spartacus – who has actually worn armour before (never this lavish but still)

-  AGRON’S FACE WHEN SPARTY OPENS HIS MOUTH! He’s all like “shut the fuck up dick head, we are trying to HIDE here.”

-  Gannicus loves his brothers, though he has a weird way of showing it.

-   “I begin to question fucking plan.”

-  NO RHASKOS. DON’T HURT MY BABY. They’re all my babies at this point, lbr, except Spatry.

-   I love how Gannicus absolutely NEEDS to be the one to fight Oenomaus.

-   I would seriously be going as nuts as the crowd is over this fight. It’s awesome.

-  BABY NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RHASKOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’M LEGIT TEARING UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why couldn’t they have saved Rhaskos?!?!?!?!?!?!

-  Mira is amazingly smart.

-   OH I LOVE ILITHYIA HOLDING ONTO LUCRETIA FOR SUPPORT!

-  Gannicus is so agile.

-   “I will send you to her arms brother.” I AM SO EMOTIONAL.

-   I was so worried about Gannicus and Oenomaus

-  Taking down the Arena is so fucking brutal and amazing and I love it.

-  Glaber protects Ilithyia, Seppius protects Seppia – THESE MEN PROTECTING THEIR LOVES. For now anyways.

-  I actually really like Seppius and Seppia for the simple fact that they seem to actually care about people more than status. They cared that Mercarto died, that was very human of them.

-  I love a good neck snapping.

- Agron kinda has his own version of a hiss AND I LOVE IT.

- Look at those intestines.

-  Cossutius, thank the gods he’s gone. His death was so extra though.

-  OMG that cut on Galber’s cheek from a thrown spear is very s1, when Sparty stood in the arena and a spear was thrown at him. wow.

- Sparty throwing his sword, again!

-   “I’m not the fool you and your daughter think me.”

-  Holy cow, Glaber is so angry and vengeful – oh what a fitting word choice.

-  I was so worried they were gonna show us Albinius’ smashed face then.

-   I love that Gannicus kinda relaxes a bit at seeing Crixus. I like this friendship.

-  It’s so beautiful seeing the Arena burn, after all the lives it’s taken.

- OH THE RUDIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-  I’m honestly surprised Donar leaves, as if he wouldn’t wait for Agron.

-  Oh gods, seriously, Glaber. Let your wife grieve before you completely ruin her whole life.

-  Varinius is a fucking coward.

-   WHAT THE FUCK THE WHOLE EPISODE THE WORDS “COCK” AND “CUNT” WEREN’T SAID AT ALL. Am I even watching Spartacus anymore?!

-   I’ve noticed on the episodes with a prominent Agron, my comments almost double. I’m okay with this.
