Word Count: 109,908 words, 14 works (this is a series) Fandom: Rome (TV 2005), Ancient History RPF, Βίοι Παράλληλοι - Πλούταρχος | Parallel Lives - Plutarch Rating: Teen & Up/Mature/Not Rated (varies from work to work) Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Mark Antony/Marcus Junius Brutus the Younger Summary: There could be no more terrible crime than to kill someone who is not merely a fellow human being but a close friend. Yet surely someone who kills a tyrant, however close friends the two men have been, has not committed a crime. At any rate the people of Rome do not think so, since they regard that deed which was done as the most splendid of all noble actions. -Cicero, A Practical Code of Behavior (On Duties III)
AU: Mark Antony joined the conspiracy against Caesar.
Reccer's Note: This is an absolutely delightful, funny, sweet, bitter-sweet, heartbreaking, sexy, *funny* and delightful series. I know very little about Ancient Rome, but this didn't confuse or confound me. It was just a wonderful read from start to finish.
