Decimus Junius Brutus Albinus

DECIUS This dream is all amiss interpreted. It was a vision fair and fortunate. Your statue spouting blood in many pipes, In which so many smiling Romans bathed, Signifies that from you great Rome shall suck Reviving blood, and that great men shall press For tinctures, stains, relics, and cognizance. This by Calphurnia’s dream is signified.

—Shakespeare, Julius Caesar [2.2]

[deciusbrutusfromjuliuscaesar]

I need someone to ship Decius with, or even Artemidorus. Even if they are characters who never canonically interact within the play (for example my Benvolio and Paris ship). I need to find someone to ship them with because shipping Shakespearean characters is part of my obsession with them. If I have no on to ship them with my obsession is lessened. PLEASE!

If anyone can find something please tell me! I am desperate.

Decius Brutus:  it were a mock Apt to be render'd, for some one to say 'Break up the senate till another time, When Caesar's wife shall meet with better dreams.'

Lyrics for Decius and his Sweetheart #1

This is a new series where I take lyrics from songs and give (small) explanations for how Decius and/or Trebonius relate to the lyrics. Starting with Francis Forever by Mitski after Trebonius has died. The lyrics will be in Italics and Decius will explain what they mean under them in bold/brackets.

Francis Forever by Mitski

I don't know what to do without you I don't know where to put my hands (I should be holding you and I don't know what to do with my hands now that you aren't here for me to hold) I've been trying to lay my head down But I'm writing this at 3 a.m. (The thought of what we could've been keeps me awake at night, I can't sleep and I keep writing you love letters and notes that you will never receive)

I don't need the world to see That I've been the best I can be, but (I don't care if others think I'm evil or cruel because I could never be good like you, even if I've tried to be more like you in your absence) I don't think I could stand to be Where you don't see me (I don't want to live without you)

On sunny days, I go out walking I end up on a tree-lined street I look up at the gaps of sunlight (You always reminded me of the sun, you glowed, so when it's sunny I go out walking and I remember you and your smile as I look up at the gaps of sunlight) I miss you more than anything (I miss you more then anything)

And autumn comes when you're not yet done With the summer passing by (Summer and the sun that reminds me of you is going to fade, but you won't be there to warm my cold nights in the Autumn, I don't want summer to end when you aren't here to keep me warm)

Decius x Trebonius

Now if I have any further updates or ramblings about this ship that are not from the perspective of Decius, they will be put here instead of that other ships post because it was getting too long for my liking.

First of all, I am making a playlist for this couple and so far, I only have six songs, so if anyone has any song recommendations for it please let me know in the comments or my messages. Here are some things to help inspire y'all (and myself).

The vibes: - The six songs I currently have are: I Want You by Mitski, Sailor Song by Gigi Perez, ur so pretty by Wasia Project, Dear Arkansas Daughter by Lady Lamb, I Bet On Losing Dogs by Mitski and Francis Forever by Mitski. - Dynamics I kind of connect to this ship is: bad boy x good girl, the morally grey character who has a soft spot for the innocent character, grumpy/sunshine. - Sad songs are welcome since at the end of the play Julius Caesar Trebonius (and all of the other conspirators) pass away except for Decius Brutus and I imagine he would feel lost without his sweetheart (this is where Francis Forever comes in).

If you have absolutely any recs even if you have no idea what I am talking about, they will be appreciated.

Hey guys, just so you know I'm not 'Brutus' Brutus, I'm Decius Brutus. Two very different people. I swear to the gods if anyone mixes us up.

Introduction

So, I am playing Decius Brutus in a small production of Julius Caesar. I'm also playing Artemidorus, but I think he's too small of a character to make sideblog for, so if I end up wanting to write anything about or for him I'll still put it on this blog. I'll just add -artemidorus at the end so it's clear. Anyways, in this production there aren't as many people so Decius Brutus has kind of been combined with some other characters in the way that he's taken their lines and such so if I say something that you remember is supposed to be from Cicero not Decius that's why. Also I am well aware that the character Decius is based on Decimus (correct me if I spelled that wrong), but I'm just talking about Shakespeare's version not the real guy. I did initially audition for Brutus (the main guy, ironic how I got the Decius version instead) and Mark Antony and Cassius and Casca so basically all the leads and I am still a little disappointed that I was not cast as any of them but I've made this blog so I can fall in love with this character despite that. In this blog it'll probably mostly be reblogs of Julius Caesar stuff (not strictly Decius) but there will be a few original content from me, which will end with -not decius and perspective posts from Decius (and maybe Artemidorus sometimes, we'll see) which will end with -decius. I don't really know what's in store for this blog, but if you're here, you're probably only here for the ride... so enjoy the ride.
