Colossal Romance-Gods of The Arena'01
Transcript
00:00I am your dominance, and I will have your fucking hearts!
00:23It's us!
00:28Grisha!
00:31What would you do?
00:34To hold your wife again?
00:38To feel the warmth of her skin?
00:41The taste of her lips?
00:44How many men would you kill?
00:49I left the deed at Barker's house.
00:52Now you're free!
00:54You've been betrayed by the beast of fucking Carthage.
01:00You are beneath me.
01:03He is a magistrate.
01:06One can never know who is plotting violence, can one?
01:10Or when they may commit the act.
01:15Your wife, she moves ever closer, even as we speak.
01:18My word is kept.
01:20They're reunited.
01:25You will become the greatest Lannister in the Republic.
01:31And as such a title, we will climb beyond our station.
01:35Beyond Capua.
01:37Perhaps in the very steps of the Senate itself.
01:43The fights are particularly entertaining today.
01:59You enjoy them more viewed from the pulvenous.
02:02Come on!
02:05Fucking shit-eater.
02:07That vet is green like a woman.
02:09You'll school him in the ways of men when Gannicus takes the sentence.
02:12Absinthe Tullius and the magistrate to bear witness.
02:15What's the fucking purpose?
02:17One man in today's game.
02:19One only.
02:20In his seats needing to impress.
02:21Stand empty as vitty as fucking heads.
02:23He's dead!
02:24Ah!
02:25Ah!
02:26Aah!
02:27Ah!
02:28Ah!
02:29Ah!
02:30Ah!
02:31Ah!
02:32Ah!
02:33Ah!
02:34Ah!
02:35Ah!
02:36Ah!
02:37Ah!
02:38Ah!
02:39Ah!
02:40Ah!
02:41Ah!
02:42Ah!
02:43Ah!
02:44Ah!
02:45Ah!
02:46Thadonius and the magistrate were delayed with pressing business,
02:48He'll die shortly, as long as his current match gives you two moves.
02:55No, get up!
02:59Get up, he'll help you fuck!
03:14Regis begins the match without problem.
03:16The problem.
03:18It is in the world of distant relations.
03:20I, for one, am grateful to be spared his oratory.
03:23A man's voice causes his gun to ache.
03:28Gannicus takes position.
03:46He'll die, he'll die!
03:52Come on, you're fucking pleader!
04:27Begin.
04:55You're a man ever of a serious note.
05:01You can strip naked and fight with his cock as long as he wins.
05:06Yes!
05:07I love you!
05:08What's he doing, Quintus?
05:12What's he doing, Quintus?
05:28What's he doing, Quintus?
05:40What's he doing, Quintus?
05:58What's he doing, Quintus?
06:14What's he doing, Quintus?
06:28I can't kill him!
06:32Kill him!
06:34No!
06:36Wait for the register.
06:40Gannicus!
06:42Do not kill him!
06:44Do not kill him yet!
06:48No!
06:49No!
07:06No!
07:10Ah, now they arrive.
07:17A victory regardless.
07:20One in Dewey Morn.
07:22None of the important matches happen till after the midday sun has passed.
07:26Consider yourself fortunate to have a man in the games at all.
07:30Because Zolonius stands with empty hands.
07:33Hm?
07:35Come then, let us see them filled with drink.
07:38Tell Doctore to see Gannicus back to the Ludus and have him properly rewarded for his showing.
07:44May not stay for the rest of the games.
07:46Ah, Vettius men commanded prominent matches.
07:48He has more than enough eyes to watch him stroke his cock.
07:50He has not had hours to the sight.
08:00Doctore!
08:01May not stay for God you are!
08:02May not stay for God you are!
08:05Dominus orders Gannicus return to the Ludus and seek to reward.
08:12Perhaps one day the pretty little bitch will fight later in the afternoon.
08:16With the rest of the men.
08:17Men, you and your tiny cock best pray that day never come.
08:26Save blood for the fucking sands, Gennicus.
08:29What seized fucking brain releasing your swords in the arena?
08:34I could have killed the man absent an arm and both fucking legs.
08:38Hubris. A fine quality.
08:41Often possessed by cunts who perish from it.
08:47Did you catch the manner of his eye as he gazed down from the pulverness?
08:51Fucking Vettius. Barely free of his mother's tits, yet he carries himself above Lannisters of more deserving years.
08:58You've often imagined itself swollen beyond worse.
09:01Time will cure him of the condition as it does all for a human.
09:05Time is what he holds in abundance.
09:07The new arena will be finished in about a handful of months if we are excluded from the opening games.
09:11It is but shit from a shit town.
09:14How can Tullius and the Magistrate favour our boy from Nola, everyone of Capua's own size?
09:18Well, how do they do it now?
09:20We must prove ourselves in the more important bouts in the old arena and secure position.
09:24To fight later in the day, we must first distinguish ourselves against Vettius men, yet Vettius men only fight later in the day.
09:30Later in the day. A vixen conundrum.
09:32Lucretia?
09:34Gaia?
09:36Gaia?
09:37Will you come to Capua without telling me?
09:39I have only this moment returned. We're with intentions of seeking you out.
09:44Do you travel with your husband?
09:46He takes to road no more. Not in this life at least.
09:50Apologies.
09:52None required. It was his time.
09:56Are you occupied?
09:58I'm fit to bursting with stories of my adventures.
10:02Quintus?
10:03What man dares stand between women and gossip?
10:06You must tell me everything. Secret, no detail.
10:09Removed from the ears of men? My looks willingly passed.
10:13Gaia returns unencumbered. And an enticing form.
10:18Huh. That woman is a force of fucking nature. One that has blown many an unsuspecting man to his ruin.
10:24You require someone more refined to grace arm as our fortunes rise.
10:31Have eyes ever beheld such a marvel?
10:34Decide to put the circus maximus in Rome to a bit of shame.
10:38We will be the ones shamed if grand ceremony passes absent our gladiators.
10:42We must force advantage before opportunity slips from grasp.
10:46No. We must be patient.
10:48Your father would venture forth with respect and caution.
10:51Then a blessing he is not present.
10:53Perhaps we should send word to him in Cecilia. Petition advice.
10:56I can already divine the content of his reply.
10:58Which is why he never rose above his humble station. Fuck patience.
11:03Ah. The Tertullius for the way.
11:06He seizes opportunity by the balls while lesser men are left holding cock.
11:11Simple merchant.
11:13Yet he gives honored counsel to the magistrate and all the rest of the noble shit-eaters of Capua.
11:18Truth told.
11:19Yet at excessive volume.
11:21And I would shout his praise to the fucking heavens.
11:23His hand-shaped event resulting in the erection of the new arena.
11:27He supplies slaves from the farthest reaches of the Republic to speed its completion through the ambitions of Tullius.
11:34Capua is elevated. A lesson to be studied and reproduced in kind.
11:40How's that all? A simple task then, Batiatus.
11:47Between us, we have the greatest gladiators in Capua.
11:51Barca, Arcadius, Gannicus.
11:54Men forged into something beyond their worth.
11:57Beyond anything that smug little piss Vettius could ever hope to offer.
12:01Perhaps Tullius should not have strayed so far abroad, inquired slaves.
12:10What's he doing?
12:12Pick him up!
12:16Chrysus!
12:18You know of the rules?
12:20No one breaks the line!
12:22Hold!
12:24This one of the Tullius' slaves.
12:26It is?
12:27I would make purchase.
12:28Purchase?
12:29What's the man's worth?
12:31He is not for sale.
12:3250 denarii.
12:34What's he doing?
12:35Seizing balls.
12:36The man is barely worth 10.
12:38Why would you pay such a sum for a shit-goal?
12:40Shit!
12:42Do you not see the promise in his eyes, the sparks smouldering in his breast?
12:46I would give it tender to ignite in the arena.
12:5250!
12:53I don't know the five to wait till your own pass.
12:55Let me 20 denarii.
12:59You pay too much for the man.
13:00The man is nothing.
13:01I pay to gain favour with Tullius.
13:08Where's the coin?
13:10The shitfuck will never be a gladiator.
13:12Even the lowest man can rise beyond the heavens.
13:17I'm tempted with the proper reward.
13:18Fast Man!
13:21I want you to win.
13:235!
13:245!
13:255!
13:275!
13:286!
13:296!
13:316!
13:336!
13:356!
13:377!
13:386!
13:397!
13:408!
13:415!
13:428!
13:436!
13:448!
13:45Oh, my God.
14:15Oh, my God.
14:45Oh, my God.
14:57He was well satisfied?
15:00Very well.
15:02Dominus will be pleased.
15:03Not as much as I am.
15:05When are you not so, especially with yourself?
15:09It is a curse, being blessed with so much to offer.
15:13And so few interested in sharing it.
15:15See yourselves well scrubbed, I would not have you smell of goat.
15:27Goat?
15:28A dead one.
15:29Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
15:31The smell of victory, brother.
15:34Well earned.
15:35The men all speak of your triumph.
15:37As they will of yours when you return to the arena.
15:40The crowd will come in great guises, drenching the gods gathered to witness.
15:44Animaeus, once more upon the sands.
15:49I would have words with my wife.
15:51I've sent your cock, which has escaped you.
15:57It will be missed.
15:58Has Dominus spoken of my return?
16:04I've not heard it.
16:05More than a year has passed as I've faced the occult.
16:08Perhaps Dominus does not intend...
16:09You are the only one to ever stand against the shadow of death and live.
16:13Bhatiatus will be a fool to keep you from the arena.
16:16Or I am the fool.
16:17Forever dreaming of such a thing.
16:19You are many things.
16:20Foolish is not among them.
16:23Bhatiatus waits but for the perfect day for his champion to retake glory.
16:26Is it true that his thing is as large as a horse is?
16:41Diana!
16:42Are you not curious?
16:44Is Gannicus really that big?
16:47Where's Dominus?
16:49In the triclinium with her guest.
16:52Diana, see the girls bathed?
16:53Yes, Melissa.
16:54Come on.
16:56It is exciting speaking of such things, is it not?
17:02I was of a similar age not so long ago.
17:04I know the giddy enticement of the subject.
17:08Yet you and Diana should turn thought from it.
17:11Soon enough your flowers will be plucked.
17:14Hastening the moment will only result in bruising of the petals.
17:19Yes, Melita.
17:19And in regards to Gannicus, I've seen bigger.
17:25God, it's grief.
17:28Well, you don't seem overly distraught at his passing.
17:32How would you present after years enduring withered flesh gripping at you?
17:38But when you left Capua, I thought you were madly in love.
17:40I was with his past.
17:45Sadly, his fortunes went dry towards the end.
17:50And did you aid in their evaporation?
17:52What can I say?
17:53I am the glorious sun.
17:59Return to bless loving rays upon favoured friend.
18:06Gaia, I have far too many baubles brought from Rome.
18:10Along with other pleasures to be shared.
18:12Suits you.
18:28But dazzled Venus herself.
18:32I fear I have nothing so exquisite to give in return.
18:35Your company is all I ever desire.
18:41And?
18:42And I would not refuse the comforts of a well-appointed villa until I manage other arrangements.
18:49Involving a right purse?
18:52I shall ask Quintus when he returns.
18:55Ask?
18:57Women do not ask their husbands for permission.
19:01They manoeuvre them to proper answer before question is ever put to tongue.
19:05Gaia.
19:07So many years have passed and yet nothing has changed.
19:10Everything has changed.
19:15And for the better by the judging of it.
19:17When last we parted, this house was but a tomb haunted by the living spectra of your husband's father.
19:27And you forced to smile and cater, bringing him his honeyed wine every evening.
19:34I thought the crusty old bastard would never succumb to the afterlife.
19:37He is not yet so far removed.
19:39He is not yet so far removed.
19:39He is merely retired to Cecilia for his health.
19:43So he yet controls the Ludus?
19:45No, my husband does, as his proxy.
19:50Was Gannicus well-attended then?
19:52He was, Domino.
19:54Gannicus?
19:56That Celt with the ridiculously charming smile.
20:03He's risen to prominence in the Ludus ever since Animaeus was injured against the Achilles.
20:07In an amazing display of bravery.
20:12Gannicus?
20:14Animaeus?
20:15All the hard, rippling men right beneath our feet?
20:19Unmoistens of the thought.
20:21Gaia?
20:23They are but slaves.
20:25Please.
20:25In all the years you've called this Ludus home, you've never once considered fucking one of them.
20:33The very thought of that turns my stomach.
20:37I would never lay with any man besides my husband.
20:40Let alone a filthy gladiator.
20:47Fucking God.
20:49Another sacrifice to the guards of the arena.
20:52Dagan thinks you have a form.
21:00You have an odds in your favor.
21:02Odds?
21:04Do you know where you are, Fred?
21:05The House of Badiatis.
21:07Trainer of gladiators.
21:09Yes.
21:10You stand among his latest recruits.
21:12Bound by pain and blood.
21:15Together we toil beneath the cruel sting.
21:17Our tories won't.
21:19There were eight of us when training began.
21:20Now we're by three.
21:24Four.
21:30And how were we so blessed by a swelling number?
21:33Hmm?
21:35By what means do you find yourself amongst that story company?
21:39I am.
21:39I was bound to Appius the slaver, carrying stone toward purpose of the new arena.
21:48I saw Badiatis and knew him by his words of gladiators.
21:52So he gained his attention.
21:57You willingly present ass for fucking?
21:59No.
22:02No, young Endless.
22:04Do you not see it in his eyes?
22:06This is a man with dreams of blood and glory.
22:12I doubt he'll live to see the test.
22:15Test?
22:16Our last trial.
22:18We must all face one of the seasoned men and demonstrate to the Dominos what we have learned.
22:23Live.
22:24And receive the mark of the brotherhood.
22:27Proving yourself worthy of the arena.
22:31I will stand upon it, Sam.
22:33Gamza meza'ina.
22:35Quishiamatia meza'idi.
22:39And he longs to call your brother.
22:41And join you as...
22:43Gladiator.
22:43Tell him the feeling is well shed.
22:51Oh, Jupiter's cock.
22:55Fifty denarii.
22:57For a fucking stone hauler.
23:00Coin well spent.
23:03Was it?
23:05Word surely has reached Talius here, yet none of gratitude return.
23:10Fifty denarii.
23:12Talonius was right.
23:14I should temper patience as my father would.
23:16You're not your father.
23:19Nor would I have it so.
23:23Perhaps tomorrow you will find yourself in the market.
23:27Where you have often mentioned Talius' frequents upon a certain hour overseeing his concerns.
23:33A chance encounter to gauge reaction.
23:35Certain to be favorable.
23:38As I know your reply to my request will be.
23:42Give it voice and see it considered.
23:46I would have Gaia remain with us.
23:48Just for a few days.
23:50Until she can manage other arrangements.
23:52The request does not surprise.
23:55Said a yes.
23:56Ask for the moon and I would wrest it from the heavens.
23:59Gaia will be so pleased at your answer.
24:01Let her keep company with her wine a moment longer.
24:10Has a wife ever had such a husband?
24:13Mm-hmm.
24:14He but honors her and the gods for guiding her to his arms.
24:19Hold on.
24:20Let her fly.
24:21Oh, no.
24:21You're able to opt for these items.
24:34Did she notice that theories were at a certain size?
24:35Do not嗎?
24:36Okay?
24:36Okay.
24:37He thinks that you can see them.
24:38Why, please?
24:39Okay.
24:39So why, please?
24:41What's wrong with Paul?
24:42Yeah.
24:42Yeah.
24:43Sundays after the 3-year-old.
24:44"' Нет'
24:45ifice
24:46Oh, my God.
25:16Texas, lower your shield when you thrust.
25:24See it raised, or your fucking brains on the sand.
25:27Yes, doctor.
25:31Lucky blow.
25:32A blow well struck.
25:34I will not make the same mistake.
25:41Good.
25:43Again?
25:46I would work the palace in this shade.
25:58I would not let gaze linger.
26:01Gannicus is a fucking fool, yet one of deadly skill.
26:04He's often rewarded for his victors with wine and cunt.
26:08Game Domino's favor.
26:09Such delights can be yours.
26:10Drinking women are not my concern.
26:18Huh.
26:18More for me, then.
26:23Fucking recruits.
26:25Smaller and smaller each year.
26:32Apologies.
26:32Endy Maes.
26:43You return to form.
26:46Pair with Crixus and bring him up to speed.
26:51Dumbness.
26:52Right, Jude.
27:06Clear instructions.
27:10Lesson one.
27:12Never drop your fucking guard.
27:14Do you lay eyes?
27:19No, perhaps Tullius did not come today.
27:22He always arrives and seldom departs before noonday sun.
27:25Are you a shadow now, dear, sweet footstep?
27:27I would study my subject as any proper student would in the pursuit of knowledge.
27:32Tullius, man.
27:33I seek your master, good Tullius.
27:37Would he be within?
27:37Yeah.
27:39I wish to express my gratitude for allowing me to purchase his slave, Crixus.
27:45The goal shows great promise towards the arena.
27:49Perhaps you could pass word of my presence.
27:56You get on me a few of those, if you recall.
27:59A costly enterprise.
28:01For us both.
28:01But one praise will turn profit.
28:06Good body, Ardus.
28:09God's answer.
28:12In mock and tone.
28:14I hope for occasion to give gratitude for relieving me of their troublesome goul.
28:18Think nothing of it.
28:20A gesture of respect for a man deserving of it.
28:22Receive with all intentions.
28:24Yet I fear you have overpaid.
28:26A common mistake for those with no head towards business.
28:29Fifty to nine.
28:32Minus the ten of the goul's actual worth.
28:35William, I do not ask for his return.
28:38Fair bargain was struck.
28:39Fair?
28:40A clumsy maneuver to gain position for your ill-trained men, Fettius.
28:44Ill-trained.
28:46Any one of my men could best use fucking blindfolded, you pissy little shit.
28:49Listen how the rooster crows.
28:51Let us calm ourselves.
28:52You doubt my words.
28:53Test them.
28:55Request a match in next month's games.
28:57Why delay?
28:58Let us see it here in the morning.
29:00The people to judge who holds the better man.
29:02The market.
29:04Surely the magistrate would not prove such disruption.
29:07Good Tullius has his ear.
29:09The magistrate could be swayed to allow it.
29:11If that is what you wish.
29:13It is.
29:15Long past you.
29:17Tomorrow then.
29:19A friendly right.
29:21Well settled.
29:24You press beyond advantage.
29:26No.
29:27I fucking pressed towards it.
29:30You should have seen young Fettius so easily goaded into making, challenged, a fucking child.
29:36All men are reduced in years we face with a superior mind.
29:39Superior in all accounting.
29:42In fact, Tullius and the rest of the city will bear witness to in the marketplace.
29:45Sleep will come with difficulty tonight.
29:47It's been ages since they've seen a decent match.
29:50Or Tullius.
29:51In the blush of youth, he was forever attempting to slip beneath my robes.
29:55Ah!
29:55You should have fucking let him.
29:57Tullius has grown to be a man of worth.
30:00One to be emulated and admired.
30:03And who will you choose to impress him?
30:05Fettius' foolishness presents rare opportunity.
30:08The question begs careful consideration.
30:19I have news to lift the heart.
30:21Fettius has made challenge.
30:23The coward finds his cock.
30:25And I would see it shriveled.
30:27My best man is to meet his dog in the marketplace come morning.
30:30The market?
30:31Ah, detail of no consequence.
30:33My question to you is plain.
30:35Is our man prepared for such a vital match?
30:40Yes, Dominus.
30:41I long to honor this house once again.
30:43I fear you have mistaken intentions.
30:49I speak of Gannicus.
30:55Gannicus.
30:55A question is better put to Doctore.
31:02Huh.
31:04Leave.
31:07His counsel is always valued.
31:11Yet, he is my father's man.
31:14His judgment clouded through a haze of outdated traditions.
31:18I seek a more visceral assessment.
31:21You and I practically grew up together in this, Lutus.
31:23You have witnessed the rise and fall of a dozen champions.
31:28What now does your gut tell you of Gannicus?
31:33Is he worthy of the mantle?
31:34I believe it so.
31:40He must truly be for you to offer support.
31:44Despite your own desires.
31:46I would not give false tongue to gain advantage.
31:50There are few that would stand with you so.
31:54Your wife's weekly visit.
31:55Two nights, hence?
31:56Yes, Dominus.
31:57I would see her to your bed tonight as well.
32:00Gratitude for honest thoughts.
32:03Dominus.
32:04Do the gods ever answer your prayers?
32:13They often reveal their leanings, though not in words.
32:17Much like my husband.
32:20Dominus summoned me to ask of Gannicus.
32:24Gannicus?
32:26He has chosen him as champion.
32:29He used to face Vittius' man in the marketplace tomorrow.
32:32And this is why you sulk.
32:37The streets are no place for the mighty Animaeus to make his return.
32:41The arena will be home to your triumphs when the time comes.
32:46And I will be there to witness it.
32:48using the
32:55Being a penthouse, that can't see me.
32:58I love him.
33:00часquare
33:03To lie.
33:05Who could we wait for him?
33:05infinites 1997.
33:06Honey...
33:06Host...
33:07Do you?
33:07Do you?
33:08How do you listen?
33:09I think that everything you do,
33:09like that!
33:10And this one,
33:10Who could we wait for you?
33:11What do you say?
33:12With his own home,
33:12let me just wait for you.
33:13A retailer...
33:13For people you?
33:14What you wereiram to?
33:14I think that all is allowed toassen.
33:14I will dream of your touch.
33:31As I dream of yours every night.
33:44Blood rains down from an angry sky, my cock rages on, my cock rages on, blood rains down from an angry sky, my cock rages on, my cock rages on.
34:02Gannicus.
34:03Brother, brother, come to drink, join me.
34:07Lower voice.
34:07If the guards were to hear you.
34:09Guards have already passed, they were well plied with wine.
34:12Keep enough of your fucking business.
34:15Tomorrow you fight for the honor of this ludus.
34:17Now is not the time for drink.
34:19Every night is a time for drink.
34:22The morning sun may greet you with your last fucking thing.
34:36Fall to your bed.
34:38Or a steeper plummet against Vettus' men.
34:41Words of wisdom.
34:42Well-received, well-well-received.
34:49And Emmaus
34:50should be you tomorrow.
34:55Where is good Vettus?
35:09Is he among you?
35:10Or did he come to his sense and remain within the warm safety of his bed?
35:15Ah, there he stands.
35:16Fresh and young as a newborn calf.
35:19A fool at last chose himself.
35:22Arty artists.
35:22Arty artists.
35:23Arty artists.
35:24We had begun to fret on your arrival.
35:26Although I see you arrive with unexpected gift.
35:29It has been too long, Guile, and grows longer still.
35:33Apologies for my delay.
35:35I had much difficulty in the choosing of a man.
35:39An imposing task.
35:41When each among my stable stands a titan.
35:44Perhaps young Vettus should have taken more time with the choosing of his own.
35:48Words fall from your mouth as shit from ass.
35:52Let us not become mired in base exchange.
35:55We are gathered this glorious day
35:59to witness honorable contests between respected rivals.
36:05Clear space!
36:10The years have favored Talios and his purse.
36:15A brawl in the streets.
36:17Where is the honor in such a thing?
36:19Fuck honor.
36:20This is business.
36:22Gratitude to Magistrate Sextus.
36:24The event turns larger than expected.
36:27Your mad schemes may hit barefoot.
36:30Enough for both of us to feast upon.
36:32The streets of the great city of Capua!
36:38Padiadus, present your man in honor of the Magistrate, esteemed Tullius,
36:46and the good people of Capua, I give to you
36:49the fiercest Celt ever to take up arms in the arena.
36:54slayer of beasts, conqueror of giants.
37:00Behold, Gannicus, champion of the house of Capua!
37:05A fine choice!
37:15Vertius, present your man.
37:18I have no tongue for overripe embellishment, nor is it required.
37:22Otho, stand forth.
37:31Yeah!
37:33The day finally comes.
37:35And yours ends.
37:37Gratitude to Bartiatus and Vettius.
37:41Now, let us judge who stands the better house!
37:51Apologies, Magistrate.
37:54There appears to be something missing.
37:58Where is your man's blindfold?
38:02Blindfold!
38:06That was your boast, was it not?
38:11That your gladiator could best any of my men, absent sight.
38:21You did voice such challenge.
38:24A simple figure of speech, not meant to be...
38:27Good Talius!
38:28If Batiatus does not wish to honor terms, he should remove himself.
38:32With tail between legs.
38:34With tailbone and legs.
38:46Victoria.
38:51Come.
38:53The task should not be that difficult.
38:55I need only direct my blades towards the smell of shit.
39:01Monarchus, ever the fool.
39:03Move on.
39:12How are you going to allow this, Quintus?
39:14The choice has been removed from my hands.
39:21Begin!
39:22Ass!
39:43You laden!
39:45Hush!
39:46I'll be right back!
39:47Now, come on, I'll be right back!
39:48How thrilling, I've never seen such a thing.
40:00Good breeze.
40:18Noble attempt.
40:34To be remembered only in its failing.
40:48Get out!
41:18Get off!
41:38Fucking kill him!
41:48Have you ever fucking seen the line?
42:04Perhaps good Betias should pit a man less prone to death against the mighty Gannicus.
42:10An impressive display, Betianus. One not soon forgotten.
42:16Gannicus is truly a wonder.
42:18Wonders are having a more prominent position in the games.
42:21You gaze upon my very thoughts.
42:23Commitments beckon.
42:25Join me at Nestor's shop after the market closes and we shall discuss your man at length.
42:46Only mad Gannicus could win contest. Fucking blindfolded.
42:51Parker could do the same.
42:53And I would kill you for being a fool.
42:56Octa speaks truth.
42:58Facing Betias' man absent sight was beyond foolish.
43:03The gods must have taken pity on your adult brain.
43:08The gods had no to do with it.
43:10Also, he grunts like a stuck pig before each attack.
43:14And he squeals that gave away his position.
43:18Your victory lifts the heart.
43:20You'll not be rid of Gannicus so easily, brother.
43:24Dominus, he rewards me with all the wine that I can drink.
43:30And I would share it with my brothers.
43:35Those that bear the mark.
43:40One day.
43:44Gannicus' victory forges path to greater glory.
43:48With Tullius' support, we can finally gain proper position in games.
43:53Maybe a place in the opening ceremony of the new arena.
43:56After such a magnificent showing, I have no doubt Gannicus will be offered a place in the Primus.
44:01Primus?
44:03Yeah.
44:05I favour the fucking sound of that.
44:09Expect late return.
44:11I would seek out Salonius afterwards.
44:13Discuss extending advantage to his house as well.
44:16Send Tullius my regards.
44:20And gauge his response in remembering me.
44:23How could he fucking forget you?
44:26It staggers mind.
44:32The change in him.
44:34The change?
44:35You know my meaning.
44:37He always seems so demure and cowed.
44:40Now he positively burns.
44:42He has always done so.
44:45His light was merely muted by the shed of his father.
44:48I could turn day to night with disapproving the crown.
44:52He never cared much for me.
44:56Or I suspect anything that smacked of enjoyment.
45:02And what might this be?
45:07The gifts from Rome.
45:11The finest opium.
45:13Carried from Cyprus.
45:19I have not partaken in many years.
45:23My husband will be gone most of the night.
45:27Good body artists.
45:34Word of Gannicus's victory has spread throughout the city.
45:38His name and yours fall from every mouth.
45:42May they always find the taste pleasing.
45:44Everyone clamours to see your man again.
45:48With exception of poor Vettius.
45:49He's fit for seizure from the ordeal.
45:51Unfortunate that he could not provide more worthy opponent.
45:56His stock is well known to be of inferior quality.
45:58As is the boy himself.
46:00The manner in which he tends the Ludus.
46:02The child has no fucking talent for it.
46:06You surprise me, body artist.
46:08Your disposition towards business is much more aggressive than your father's.
46:14We are of diverging temperament.
46:17And desires.
46:20How does he fare in Cecilia?
46:23The climb is more agreeable to various conditions brought about by the passing of the years.
46:29How did the magistrate take to Gannicus's display?
46:33Ignited by him.
46:34As was the crown.
46:37He even broached subject of retaining the man for the opening games of the new arena.
46:41Gannicus in the opening games.
46:46If you could aid in such a thing I would forever be in your debt.
46:50Merely requires a word on the proper ear.
46:53All that remains is to agree upon a price.
46:56Of course.
46:58I would be happy to see coin to your hand in exchange for assistance.
47:02What sum did you have in mind?
47:04You misunderstand, body artist.
47:06I do not offer to broker arrangement.
47:07I offer to purchase your man.
47:09Purchase?
47:10But...
47:11Why would you want a gladiator?
47:12You're not a lanista.
47:13Jupiter is cock now.
47:14Yet I have many vested interests.
47:15Shipping, goods and services.
47:16This very shop.
47:17And young Vettius is ludus.
47:18Look at the little fuck now.
47:19About to shit himself.
47:20Still your tongue.
47:21The grown-ups are talking.
47:22You're not a lanista.
47:23Jupiter is cock now.
47:24Yet I have many vested interests.
47:25Shipping, goods and services.
47:26This very shop.
47:27And young Vettius is ludus.
47:28Look at the little fuck now.
47:29About to shit himself.
47:30Still your tongue.
47:31The grown-ups are talking.
47:32200 denarii.
47:33A generous offer.
47:35In respect of your father.
47:36Apologies.
47:37I would not power up with him.
47:38I was a man.
47:39I would not power up with him.
47:40You're a young man.
47:41I'm a man.
47:42You're a man.
47:43And young Vettius is ludus.
47:44And young Vettius is ludus.
47:45Look at the little fuck now.
47:46About to shit himself.
47:47Still your tongue.
47:48The grown-ups are talking.
47:51Two hundred denarii.
47:53A generous offer.
47:55In respect of your father.
47:57Apologies.
47:59I would not power up with him.
48:01I would not power up with a man.
48:06I allow you to purchase one of my slaves,
48:10yet now you deny me the same opportunity.
48:14Gannicus is not for sale.
48:18Everything is for sale, Bartiatus.
48:22The question is but price.
48:31No!
48:32No!
48:33No!
49:01Oh, my God.
49:31I make fair offer, and you produce cock to piss on me.
49:47Do you know what that feels like, Batiatus?
50:01I'll be excluded from the games forever.
50:15Oh, my God.
