"I doubt the son of the Consul would be interested in courting a traitor's widow."
Replied Sertorius, rather bluntly. Though Lepidus and his father had got on, they were not exactly friends.
"I shall keep my eyes and ears open as I re-acquaint myself with city life. I had considered a career as a public advocate." He admitted.

"Bah, we need to have better men in the senate rather than this clique we have now."
The younger Sertorius would be a welcome change from the old arch-conservatives in the senate.
"Anyways i will do my best to get her a good match"
Only the best is good enough for the daughter of Saturninus.

Decianus, tired of all negativity and bickering, disbands most of his ruffians and gladiators. Only three units of gladiators remain as personal bodyguards and guards of his private building through the city.

"Come here, you cute little dog"
Decianus said to his little dog as he patted him with his hands.
"Tonight we go to the suburra of our lovely city, nothing for your lovely eyes to see though."
Decianus said to the dog with a smile. He loved such nights, to drink and mix with the local roman citizens. Luckily his wife would attend some rites of the Bona Dea tonight so she would not find out his habits.
"Now let us get my wig, dress my makeup, does it not look lovely on me?"
Decianus said to himself when he watched in the mirror.
"Good, good, this looks much better, does it not, what man would not fall a lady like me?"
Decianus joked to a female slave of his who had obviously helped him look like a roman woman. The slave of course nodded in approval. Soon after Decianus would visit a notorious bar known for its debauchery. (s)He behaved very feminine and spoke little, preferring to speak with non-verbal communication. As (s)he sat near a table with a few other guests some man offered to sit on his lap. Of course Decianus would indulge in such wanton desires, both had already drunk a few good bottles of wine.
"But you do look a lovely lass, don't you"
"Hmm"
Decianus would simply look into the eyes of this man, his breath smelled to the stench of alcohol but so does his own. Luckily the man was so stupidly drunk that even at close range he would not notice the differences between man and woman.
"There's a quiet alley next to this local tavern, you see"
The unknown man (who he did not know was Cinna) said, his hand stroked the upper leg of Decianus. A suggestive gesture. Soon they would walk to the quiet alley and indulge themselves in more carnal pleasures.
