 Then, on his arrival in Constantinople, after much counsel with himself, considering that he was already unequal to the amount of pressing business and believing that there was no room for delay, on the twenty-eighth of March he brought the aforesaid Valens into one of the suburbs​ and with the consent of all (for no one ventured to oppose) proclaimed him Augustus. Then he adorned him with the imperial insignia and put a diadem on his head, and brought him back in his own carriage, thus having indeed a lawful partner in his power, but, as the further course of our narrative will show, one who was as compliant as a subordinate. No sooner were these arrangements perfected without disturbance than both emperors were seized with violent and lingering fevers--

this was one of those illustrations that was originally supposed to be a 5 page comic until I realized I don't know anything about later roman empire architecture or visuals or art or anything, so we'll revisit that later. maybe
for right now though, these two are fascinating. we have two brothers acting as one body, even becoming ill in tandem with each other, it's giving This Throne Is Cursed. like, the last time I read about emperors coming down with life threatening illnesses, it was Caligula, and that moment in his biography marked a very specific tone shift. I spent the rest of the (first) time reading about Valens and Valentinian waiting for something comparable to Caligula's reign to happen lmao (Dio 59. 8. 1-2)
and since Caligula was already on the mind, I started thinking about Tiberius: I think he would've loved these two since he had a whole thing about twin-ification and brothers and etc etc etc. ofc, Rome is both a Mouth and a Tomb, so it's going to go badly for someone/everyone eventually, but honestly I think that Valentinian and Valens were the best we could've hoped for. like it could've been so much worse

Upon the decease of Valentinian, six days after his death the army in Italy proclaimed his son Valentinian, then a young child, emperor, at Acincum, a city of Italy. When this was announced to the other two emperors, they were displeased, not because the brother of the one and the nephew of the other had been declared emperor, but because the military presumed to proclaim him without consulting them, whom they themselves wished to have proclaimed.
Soc. 4.31
so valentinian ii was four years old, and ngl, I’d be annoyed as hell too lmao
(we’re doing a little bit of hollywood casting (so to speak) with the designs for the moment, it was subleyras’ painting of saint basil celebrating mass that caught my attention first, and while it vexes me, it also occupies my thoughts 24/7)

How would your whumpers react if the apocalypse happened? Would they release whumpee, or would this just add more fuel to the flame?
Well it depends what kind of apocalypse! Like if it's end of the world and they're the last ones left, they'd likely keep them with exception of Abaellis, Azen, and Kira who would let their whumpees go!
if it's zombie apocalypse esc then it's different!
Tael would likely start to retrain Emil to be more focused on pet esc training to be almost like an attack/defense dog! Bebê would likely double down, letting it add more fuel to the flame! Abaellis and Shadow likely would turn the zombies into test subjects/whumpees! (I mean, Abaellis has created zombies and done research Maci, being an accidental whumper, would either let go whoever she's whumping or try to be more a caretaker to them! Key letting Kira go would be very reluctant, if the hells are safe then she'll probably bring them with her to the hells, but if not then she'd probably let them go! Valen would definitely keep Mylien! He'd rather kill Mylien than knowingly sending him off alone in a zombie apocalypse! He might double down even more knowing that Mylien's family is likely no longer an issue now!
Azradel doesn't have a specific whumpee so would probably let whoever he was whumping at the time go! And same with Azen!
King Alistair is not letting Thei go if he can help it even if it is an apocalypse, even in canon he only let Thei go bc he was near death and Thei managed to get physically pulled out of the monster Alistair created by a rescue team, so it wasn't a willing let go!
Death's hands would be full but likely wouldn't let go of Harmonia! It just means Harmonia would get neglected a bit but that's ok <3
Faust, like Alistair, would not want to let Dor go but given the situation, Dor might be able to actually escape!
Kira would likely feed their whumpee to the zombies at that point tbh jkghdjkfhgjkd
I have other whumpers but those are the ones currently on my blog's list +Faust, but if there's any specific whumper that's not on this list you wanna know about, send an ask and I can tell ya what they'd do! :3

I love your new icon! Is the person above the emperor a historical figure? The contrast between the two is a little creepy, I love it
not as far as I’m aware of! It’s part of a larger scene involving Saint Basil, the other guy in my icon is just catching Valens as he faints!
Tumblr media
it’s actually a little funny to me that Valens looks so young here compared to Basil because Basil and Valens were born around the same time, and died within the same year of each other

I had to see who followed up Valens and found out that Subleyras also did a painting with Theodosius, so apparently this is my origin story for getting interested in the Later Roman Empire lmao
