She watched her husband ride to battle, settled her soul to the fact that he might never ride back. But he does.
After this, all decisions are easier. It doesn’t hurt as much, the possibility of losing something you thought was already gone. It doesn’t seem impossible, the...

cicero/shutting the fuck up OTP 4EVER
fuck me, i know. i like his letters, but only because he’s sometimes funny and sometimes quite human, and because the OH SHIT, SON flavour of the ones at the end is quite gratifying. (you thought octavian was a “nice young man”? REALLY?)

normal people don't do this; part eleven million

I realise that this must seem a little odd, given that he is, in essence, a...
