Just Another Trinket, The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, NC-17
Title: Just Another Trinket
Author: postingwhore
Fandom: The Tragedy of Julius Caesar
Pairing: Caesar/Brutus, Caesar/Antonius, Brutus/Cassius
Summary: Brutus knows that Caesar cheats on him with Antonius, but he doesn't think that he will be replaced.
Rating: NC-17
Genre: Angst/General
Disclaimer: Shakespeare wrote fanfic. Plutarch wrote a biography. These people made their own histories.
Notes: For 15minuteficlets Week #59 challenge.
Brutus is not stupid. He may be foolish and idealistic, perhaps even hypocritical, but he has never been stupid. He may make the wrong decisions at times, but he can always see the unspoken things before his eyes.
When Brutus first sees Antonius, he knows that Caesar is fucking him. How can Caesar resist someone like Antonius, all golden and muscular and his pretty little mouth so swollen Brutus can almost imagine the way it appears on Caesar's cock, open and accepting and willing and wanton?
Brutus knows Caesar much better than anyone else does, perhaps even better than Caesar himself. Caesar is not known for staying faithful, at least, not physically, but Brutus thought that they had something. Caesar had said so himself.
So he disregards Antonius. Then, Caesar stops coming to him, and Brutus knows that he has been replaced by Caesar's little whore, who probably begs Caesar to fuck him with his legs spread vulgarly for him. Brutus isn't really sure how what he and Caesar have can be so easily broken by Antonius. He's not sure that he wants to know what Caesar sees in the pretty slut that's better than him because he knows Caesar loved him at one time, and Brutus doesn't want to know how Caesar can love Antonius.
When Cassius asks him to join the conspiracy, Brutus gives his agreement eventually, and he doesn't really remember how, but they end up having sex at some time. Brutus doesn't stop the arrangement, and neither does Cassius. He wonders the purpose of their activities at times, but Brutus thinks that he really doesn't care to know.
It's sort of funny because when Cassius has his mouth wrapped around his cock, Brutus wonders whether this is what Antonius does to Caesar, whether this is part of the reason Caesar left him. And sometimes, he dreams of Caesar, barely tangible hands running over his flesh, and oh, it feels so so good, better than it can ever be with anyone else.
When he kills Caesar, he tells himself it's for a noble cause, but Brutus knows that jealousy played just as much a part in his decision as anything else. He knows that Antonius will run after him to avenge his their lover, and Brutus runs with Cassius. All the other conspirators are captured and killed. No one escapes a lover's wrath.
When he lies with Cassius in the tents they have raised far away from Rome, Brutus thinks about how ironic it is that he has replaced Caesar with Cassius like how Caesar replaced him with Antonius. Only Brutus doesn't stop loving Caesar.
