Rome in pictures: Many faces of Lucius Vorenus

My head/heart is full of "Rome"-related thoughts. When one starts thinking about future plot developments before dozing of to sleep one must admit that this is serious. And even more so, this week I re-watched my favourite scenes from season 1 and this helped to add fuel to the fire. :D

And this is where posting a collection of pictures helps, because for me life is largely about visuals. I have collected 35 (!!) screencaps involving mostly Vorenus. But of course Pullo is there too because Vorenus and Pullo are one single unit for me.

So, for your perusal: Vorenus, Pullo, sweat, blood, daggers, long pale eyelashes and blue eyes.

Also because "Rome" still occupies my thoughts, I welcome any requests for "Rome" icon making - choose your favourite screencap, let me know if you like a particular text and I will make an icon this weekend.

with them, we have this astonishingly layered and beautiful relationship and one of the very rare depictions of a true and lasting friendship. So, I do love Lucius lots and lots because you can't have strawberries without cream :P

EEEEEEE! And this is why I love Pullo to bits too. I think it was a very winning combination to have two great but very different guys share the main part in the show. Very winning for female fans. :D And great for the both actors who weren't so popular before "Rome".

if it were not for them, we would have, I think, another kind of historical "lifestyles of the rich and decadent";

This is true, "Rome" just found that perfect and less often explored then romantic relationship theme of male friendship. But I like the other characters too, even little ones like Posca.

I love Posca. And KoT thinks my REAL boyfriend on the show is the fat guy who does the announcements :P (Maybe he's right!)

But isn't he just AWESOME!! I am trying hard to remember where else I have seen that guy.

He's Ian McNeice - he's always in lots of different things in bit parts (he was in a Sharpe episode, and he was also in "Dune" where he was, I think, although i've tried to bleach my brain about this, in a diaper at one point :P)

Now I remember about this. **shudders**. Thank you!!! I have an urge to make a set of icons with his gestures only. May be next week.
