Summary: With Spartacus absent, attending to duties given by Dominus, Naevia happens upon her lover Crixus, rallying others to his side to humiliate Varro during feeding hours, resulting in Varro leaving most of his rations and seeking his own private counsel. Knowing Varro to be kind, and a committer of no crime, Naevia unhappily confronts Crixus and demands that he make apology. Perhaps with his only weakness being love, Crixus yields to her will and sets swift course to make amends with Varro, employing the German brothers to trick Varro to meet him in Barca’s cell, though he did not plan for what came next. It seems however, Spartacus has taught his friend well, as Varro proves more than resourceful, when need arises.
Warnings: Do not read if you are offended by violence towards a character, although this is by no means a darkfic, and the violence is not very sinister or graphic. There may be historical/mythological references in parts. DubCon element is mild, there is no actual rape. Also, some elements of cumplay. This is a co-write, so may sound choppy in parts (if you decide to read on knowing this, don’t complain about it). Language used is similar to that which is typical of the show, so be patient and re-read certain parts if they confuse you on first reading. Crixus was written by me,
ikarusphoenix , and Varro by
letit_linger (go show her some lj love). As always, please comment after the link, comments are ultrasugar!
