I love historical stories and Lastglances and alasse wrote quite few but I'm not sure about Gladiator fics. That would be awesome to read some though. I had categorized all the historical fics I could find, but they were lost due to an upgrade. There should be a historical tag here ( ... )

Hey Lee,

You are just too quick. I was going to correct that WW11 error, but I'm sure she knows what I mean, LOL.

I was just thinking that maybe you could add Gladiator fic to you to do list? =D I don't know no one had thought of it before.

Oops! I see another error. Between The Crosses is also Sapphire's. That is a must read.

I was trolling, reading and saw the post and had to glee over it. LOL. And now you're stuck with World War numero 11. Jesus, i hope two were enough. rofl.

No way, gladiators...damn, I can hardly remember any history lessons in Ancient Rome and Greece so better I don't sully European history. lol. And the rest of the plot bunnies I have waiting on the back burner are already rabies infected...yiiiiiiikes.

Oh that's right...Glory (excellent thinking love4movies)is good and kind of close enough when you think about it.

Sure is! It's all just yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum. Okay, I need to PM you and stop trolling around and slacking, lols.

Kristen's Glory (in our archives) has a 500 BC in Athens setting with Brian as an Olympic athlete. Close enough?

I was thinking of Glory. I didn't mention it because it didn't quite fit the criteria, but picturing Brian as a Roman Gladiator or Roman anything is always hot, so here's another:

Edge of the World

The year is 55BC. Brian is a Roman officer and Justin is a tattooed Celt.

I Have been trying to think of stories where Justin is from the upper class in comparison to Brian, but the only ones I know are not in the 500BC settings.

Yes, that's a good one too!

If we stroll so far from the Gladiator theme and interpret it as ancient historical AU there is In Medias Res by Lastglances, but it's a death!fic. Uploaded to our archives.
