a bystander: both of you are focusing on the wrong thing
anyway! this is a comic from the vault™! it was originally something goofy I drew for myself after I read a couple of different takes on this whole event (Crassus leaving Rome in 63 BCE, see Plutarch Pompey 43). like.
the phrasing is giving late night teleserye plot drama.
and this literally sounds like something a friend has told me about someone else's relationship drama with their sometimes ex. but like. on a less high stakes stage.
ALRIGHT, moving on. some stuff that was Fun To Read, To Me
Crassus' New Friends and Pompey's Return, Eve J Parrish
Crassus: a Political Biography, B.A. Marshall
speaking of titles, fascinated by how this part of crassus' life gets defined by pompey's absence/return. hello fellas!
AND FINALLY inspiration for Pompey's comment about perpetuating cycles of violence comes from this delightfully dramatic bit of writing
Marcus Crassus and the Late Roman Republic, Allen Mason Ward

hello! i absolutely love your poly!141 series, its so good! i love the dynamics between the 141 and reader, and gosh...i love indulging in a/b/o, idk it just is comforting bc of the dynamics between characters. anyways- i was wondering if you knew any similar fics and/or series with a/b/o and dynamics similar to yours? i just love a/b/o aus and its hard to find them in the cod fandom. sorry to bother and you can totally ignore this if you want!
(also, the angst in 'The Thing About Ghost', i absolutely loved it. i love hurt/comfort so much and i love the way that the readers trauma and abandonment issues along with Ghost's trauma in which he pushes others away shows in your story so well.)
Hi love!!! I had to giggle when I got this ask because of the other one I already had in my inbox that was similar.
Fics that are similar to mine?? Hmm the only one I can think of off the top of my head right now is on Ao3 and it's Pantry Solutions by herethereb3drag0ns. I've recced that one a lot on this blog. Of course I'm very behind on reading since I don't really read much while I'm writing. Only have the energy for one and writing tends to win that battle.
I'm sure there might be others, but my followers would know more about that than me.

the ultimatum queer love feels like it’s specifically made to torment me by selecting the most obnoxious and questionable ppl there were that just so happened to be also gay

AND ANOTHER THING that really annoys me (yes this is kinda still about bridgertton) is when women wear the exact same amount of heavy make up regardless of context. Like we could use the styling to convey a sense of intimacy by allowing the love interest to see a more private and less guarded side of the heroine but everyone is too scared of looking at a woman without full insta-face to actually do good storytellingggggg

The only place I can actually stand being a swiftie is on tumblr I love our little corner of the internet Twitter and tiktok demand far too much and are never ever satisfied with anything Taylor does
