Trans Octavian hcs?

gods this ask was from forever ago and what better time to answer it than at 1 in the morning

  • his favourite movie as a kid was mulan because “becoming” a boy and going off to war was his dream as a young roman
  • he chose the name octavian based off augustus bc, hey, that guy wasn’t the epitome of hypermasc buff roman soldier yet still was great (as in power and notability, not like a good person) so he could be too
  • his shitty fashion sense is based off clothes that hide his shape and his lack of knowledge about how to dress himself because he was never taught how
  • he’s more competitive towards cis men because he feels the need to prove himself better so people respect him
  • in fact that’s where some, if not a lot, of his drive and need for power came from, the desire to prove himself worthy
  • he has spent a considerable amount of time in prayer to bacchus for help and guidance
  • he’s 110% jealous of jason because he’s everything octavian wishes he was
  • more muscular, masculine, respected, he didn’t need to continuously prove himself the way octavian did
  • and that’s about all i have for it being 1am thanks for coming to my ted talk
  • it went off trans tav a bit oops but i do hc his trans experience intersecting with other factors of his life

mmmm can we talk about how much octavian being “bad” shits on survivors like?? he was raised to be ambitious and strong in the same “vincere, aut mori” camp that encourages children to lead and fight like fucking adults of course he’s not gonna be content with not having power. The only reason Reyna and such aren’t like that is because they weren’t raised with that toxic mentality. But for some reason, it’s his fault that he has that perspective. Not only that, but Gaea influencing is also apparently his fault? For fucks sake it’s canon that he thought her speaking to him was Apollo and that he was helping. The way he was manipulated to think was not him, and the books being like “Wow Octavian’s such a piece of shit! Helping Gaea and desperately wanting power! Look at him killing himself! Such a good thing that he was lead to doing that! He killed Gaea who? Sorry all I know is a lil bitch!” is,, bad

and im adding this because i didn’t think i got my point in here clearly enough with my tendency to go off on tangents: Acting like the way Octavian acts is because it’s just his personality and not because of trauma shits on “bad survivors” who act out and aren’t soft and gentle

I cleaned Will’s family’s kitchen because they have fucking mice and a fly problem and the second his mom got home the counter suddenly has a dirty pan, open chips, an open cheese jar, a cheesy lid, a dirty spatula, a big ass plastic bag with arsenic blocks in it, a torn chocolate cake mix packet, and a sauce covered tupperware lid strewn about 🙃

And somehow??? Somehow there is an entire plate just sitting on the floor

How 🙃 does 🙃 she 🙃 live 🙃 like 🙃 this

The mice in this house are going to form an alliance and rise up against us and i am powerless but to watch it happen. I may strike a deal with them when the time comes, become prince of the mice, king of the rodents, and i will rest upon a royal throne made of the fallen food that this family refuses to clean up off of the ground

I am attempting to establish spiritual communication with their people

He

THE ORACLE IS HARD AT WORK

NO!!!!!!!!!!!

You sick fucks wanted me to Ask Later so here you go

The Wise Ones shat all over the last paper so i had to make a new one, and we’ve caught and released about 5 mice since yesterday, so I don’t know how fast they’ll be to answer, but we will see if they grant me their Prophecies

Thus Begins, The Final Consultation

HHNNGG THEY TOOK A PIECE AND CARRIED IT BACK WITH THEM
