"You Want The Truth, Servant Of Truth? The Truth Is When You Banish The Gods From The World, They Eventually

"You want the truth, Servant of Truth? The truth is when you banish the gods from the world, they eventually come back-with a vengeance. Humans can't stay away from gods. Gods can't stay away from humans. It's the natural order of things."

Geraki, Gameboard of the Gods

Damn, this is both hilarious and accurate. 

If the Romans and Friends Had Outgoing Voice Messages Part 2

Cleopatra: You have reached 1-800 That Bitch, and this is a message to let SOMEBODY (Antony) know that if he so much as TRIES to steal my takeout this time I will stab him in the eye

Octavia: Before you begin your message I'd like to apologize for anything my brother has done to provoke you, I am not responsible for him

Cicero: You have reached the only voice of reason left in this hellhole, please leave a message.

Agrippa: Marcus Agrippa, please leave a message. Sorry I can't come to the phone right now but I literally never have a moment free *depressed laugh*

Percy, holding the door for Mary: After you :)

Mary: No, after you :)

Percy: I insist, after you :)

Byron, pushing pass the both of them: No, after me.

This is both hilarious and accurate for Lord Byron, who really was that arrogant.

Stories always begin the same way: There was and there was not. There is possibility in those words, the chance for hope or despair.

This is pure comedy gold.

If the Romans Had Outgoing Voice Messages

Caesar: Hey it's Julius. I can't come to the phone right now, but if you leave your name and number I'll - Antony! What the HELL are you doing?? Don't touch that!

Antony: Yo, it's Antony. If you call back and I don't answer, it means I can't answer. Send a text. I might read it. If it can be said in text, then for the love of God, text.

Brutus: Hi! It's Brutus. Um, I'm really super sorry I couldn't get the phone, I swear I'll call you back as soon as I can. Um, if you wanna call my work phone it's xxxxxxxxxx. I'll respond, probably, I might be busy and I can't take personal calls unless it's an emergency but I can try - (BEEP)

Cassius: Hey if this is Octavian bothering me again I swear to God I will punch your fucking lights out. If this is anyone else call back later

Pompey: it's Pompey. Call back later.

Octavian: The person you have dialed is unable to receive your call. Please call back later or leave a message after the tone.

Cato: Alexia? Alexis? Alexa! How did I work this? Alexa won't turn on! This is Cato
