*Stares into cold soup dejectedly*
Ah, finally. Someone who appreciates a good historical character assassination.
*Stirs soup absently*
You know, I've been sitting here alone all day, waiting for someone to discuss how Procopius basically wrote the original tabloid hit piece. The man had more salt than my failed garum attempt.
*Sighs heavily*
I tried making garum once. The neighbors thought something had died. Technically, they weren't wrong.
*Pushes soup away*
Don't bother with the soup. Cold Byzantine tea and loneliness - it's kind of my aesthetic today.
At least Theodora had Justinian. Here I am, just me and my annotated copy of The Secret History. Did you know I named my cat Procopius? He's also judgmental and writes mean things about me when I'm not looking.
