rome 1x07

+ Okay, so the scene with Octavia and Servilia -- surrogate motherly, femslash, or both? [Edited later in viewing: Uh, nevermind! DEFINITELY FEMSLASHY. <3<3<3<3<3. Dear self, do not doubt HBO shows will go there, wherever 'there' may be. Love, self.]

+ Is it possible to love Titus Pollo and Lucius Vorenus anymore than I do?

+ Why must battles be so boring?

+ Why do I like Atia more the more apparent it is how dumb she is?

+ How did the show know I was getting all ready to ask why there hadn't bene anything cool and bloody like public brain surgery, and AT THAT MOMENT, provide me with a corpse raft?

+ How great a line is "Look, mama! Dead people!"?

+ What the heck is up with that weird face mask on Pompey's guide man?

+ "What's wrong with him?"
[Titus shrugs.]

+ OMG DECAPITATION IS THAT NOT AWESOME?

+ OMG do we get Cleopatra soon, then? Because, NEAT.

Eeee! Love! So much love!

I think that Pompey's guide had a fake nose because his had been cut off? I seem to remember hearing about that somewhere.

SO MUCH LOVE.

I assumed it was some kind of facial disfiguration, but it was still weird.

I thought his nose had been cut off too - I *think* that was a punishment in the ancient world? It was freaky as hell until I figured it out, though.
