I may not talk about them as often, since they tend to be less involved in Drama, but my favorite historical figures are those who are kind. Octavia the Younger, for her forbearance, hard work, and compassion for kids who weren't even hers. Atticus, for helping Fulvia, Cicero, Servilia and others when they were in trouble. Pliny the Elder died trying to rescue his friends from Vesuvius' eruption. And Marcus Agrippa rarely got angry, tried to avoid embarrassing others, and was quick to forgive, even in matters of life and death.

The drama and shenanigans are fun, and the politics is fascinating, but kindness is the quality I most respect.

#okay admittedly i talk about agrippa a lot haha #octavia the younger #titus pomponius atticus #pliny the elder #marcus agrippa #jlrrt speaks #kindness

Octavia: How was the honeymoon? Anthony: Well, Octavian got drunk and tried to destroy our marriage certificate. *cut to Octavian laughing maniacally* Octavian: Good luck trying to return me without the receipt!

Who of the many women that surrounded Mark Antony could you see yourself being FRIENDS with? Not who you admire the most but who you'd enjoy drinks and dishing the dirt with the most

It's honestly kind of hilarious how the "Julio-Claudian" Dynasty is really a bunch of Antonians. Over half of the emperors and most of the influential women of the family are all Antonians

It turns out, one of Lydia’s fun little infant quirks is that she’s gassy—which means she’s prone to blowouts. And unfortunately, when you’re living in a converted U-STORE office with a 3x1 tile bathroom that means strapping a stinky baby into a carrier to climb up the ladder and onto the roof, where there’s actually room for a proper bathtub... 😅

#reaaaaally wish they'd given us a proper bathing option with the little bath seat in sinks as well #I guess I don't know how common that actually is #but it's how I remember my mom bathing my younger sibling #rebuild a city #ts4bacc #1_04 #ts4 gameplay #ts4 #octavia li #lydia li

I love Ronald Syme's theory that Agrippa married Attica in 37 BCE, because it suggests:

That at the age of 26, Octavian was on wife #3 while Agrippa was either like, "No thanks," or "Gaius, how are you finding the time?"

That Mark Antony probably discovered Agrippa still wasn't married during negotiations for the Treaty of Tarentum.

That in between calling Octavian a leg-shaving fruitcake and trying to feed him to pirates, Antony found time to play matchmaker for Octavian's best friend. It is not clear whether Agrippa wanted him to do this.

That Agrippa had to explain to Octavian why Antony kept dragging him away from the negotiating table to meet girls.

Which means Octavian - and likely Octavia - would've been consulted on the girls Antony was proposing for Agrippa, all while Antony was Octavian's brother-in-law and Octavia was trying to get them back together (as triumvirs). And Antony still hadn't decided whether to save Octavian's ass or let Sextus Pompey wreck him.

That suddenly Agrippa's love life (or lack thereof) was a matter of national diplomacy.

That Agrippa's marriage thus took on a weird parallel to Octavia marrying Antony for the Treaty of Brundisium - or almost did, because apparently he told Antony "Not a senatorial family." Even though that would've increased Agrippa's political influence.

(I am getting the impression that Agrippa did not want to get involved in political/interpersonal drama more than he had to. Or he might not have wanted to be obliged to any families other than Octavian's.)

(Was Antony hoping to flip Agrippa to his side with cute girls or a marriage alliance?? Sorry Ant...)

Mark Antony decided the next best option was Atticus' daughter - Atticus, best friend of Cicero, whom Antony and Octavian had killed.

That must have been one hell of an awkward wedding party.

We don't know much about Attica's feelings, but Agrippa and Atticus actually became great friends, perhaps because they could commiserate over their other friends being absolutely bananas.
