achilloras:the dead romans society fanmixplus additions, corrections and comments by Catullus and Cicero!song choice explanations: 1. Gone, Gone, Gone by Phillip Phillips for the reader: ‘I’ll love you long after you’re gone, gone, gone.’ They’ve been dead for centuries but we still nerd out about them, so.2. Oh My God! by the Moniker for Dante: ‘Want to explore the world with you, you / You’re the only reason that I’m here’. Because Dante/Vergil feels, u get me?3. How You Like Me Now by the Heavy for Catullus: Because it’s an obnoxious song and let’s face it he spends most of his time bickering with/annoying Cicero, who still doesn’t like him4. Primadonna by Marina & the Diamonds for Cicero: Catullus hijacked me. That is the only explanation.5. Love Today by Mika for Ovid: ‘gonna make you a lover’. Essentially the theme of at least two books of Ovid’s poetry, so it seemed fitting.6. If You Can’t Beat Them by Queen for Petronius: Because I feel like he doesn’t actively want to be part of Catullus (and Ovid)’s antics, but gets dragged into them anyway.7. Them Kids by Sam Roberts for Lucretius: ‘If nobody listens, then who’s gonna hear?’ He and Cicero are so done with your bullshit, Catullus. (I think he counts himself an honorary ‘old man’ of the group)8. Walking On Sunshine by Katrina & the Waves for Seneca: Wholly facetious. He’s yellow, and he’s a grumpy git.9. You’re My Best Friend by Queen for Horace: He cares about Vergil, and he’s pretty cool.10. I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For by U2 for Vergil: Because he’s been waiting around for Dante for ages source link
