yay! thank you very much for the picspam...and i love it when people post about episodes. stirs up more conversation ;)

i'm still on the fence about pullo and the peach scene. all i know is that it was painfully uncomfortable, especially for cicero, and because of that i think it worked. cicero was lovely. he was also one of my favorite characters...this series won't be the same without him for me :/
same with brutus. oh, i did NOT like cassius when he was first introduced. i thought he was scheming and dangerous. but watching brutus clutch his body, on cassius' birthday...it was intense! poor poor brutus.
two of the best characters are gone. damn. its still such a damn shame to think about.

as for agrippa/octavia. thank you!!!! our little rome-watching group has agreed that agrippa is a little, uh, wishy-washy as a character. especially in a series where most of the characters are morally ambiguous and so complex...it really does feel like he's straight out of a g-rated disney adaptation of the hobbit. that being said....i cannot resist the doomed, adorable -thing- between him and octavia. they'll never last, but damn, while they do i'm gonna milk it for all its worth XD
