Consider Trebonius/Decimus Brutus. Novus homo + the privileged guy, eventually conspiring against their common benefactor together.
One brings Caesar inside, the other pulls Antony outside.

Consider Trebonius/Decimus Brutus. Novus homo + the privileged guy, eventually conspiring against their common benefactor together.
One brings Caesar inside, the other pulls Antony outside.
Cassius is the catgirl who can and will hunt a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
D. Brutus and M. Brutus are so often confused in assassination narratives, you could call them Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
I think after what happened to Dolabella on this website, it might finally be time to sexualize Lentulus Sura.
Conspirancy you say.
[Giulia e Sesto Pompeo, Soliva/Perotti]
Sextus Pompey and Fulvia conspiring together is hot.
[Jean Racine’s Britannicus; Translated into English Rhymed Couplets by Geoffrey Alan Argent.]
Reading Antonio Conti's Marco Bruto (1744)!
Highlights from Act 1 Scene 1:
Brutus has a shrine to Cato in his house.
Servilia is the political mastermind behind Caesar's impending coronation. She plays senators as she pleases. This apparently includes Cicero, on whom she has influence through Publilia.
In 63 bce, Servilia's letter to Caesar that made Cato so mad was delivered in the senate by none else than Decimus Brutus.
Caesar wants to marry Brutus to Octavia; Brutus said fuck this.
Servilia is not happy about this refusal, about Porcia, about Cassius, and most of all about the ghost of Cato.
Albinus pretends to work with Servilia but really works with Cassius. Very sexy of him to always be a double agent.
Some more from subsequent scenes:
Cassius would have stabbed Caesar at the Lupercalia but Trebonius held him back saying they still need Brutus there for PR purposes.
Porcia is very persuasive.
Porcia and Cassius complain to each other about Brutus.
