[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Marcus Aelius Aurelius Verus Caesar[/quote]

Marcus Aerelius always resented his adopted name. His family was a tangled mix of kin and enemy, with most focused solely on keeping a connection to the empire, however tenuous. All of his friends knew this about him, so whenever he was called Marcus Aurelius Verus Caesar he knew it was someone trying to impress but who knew nothing about him. He had gone up through the ranks like any other plebe -- in fact, he had started as a humble floor sweeper before he was ever adopted into the line of the throne -- and so he recognized butt-kissing for what it was. Still, because of all the time he had spent loading dishwashers and tossing dough in the air, he was very good to his staff. Soon the chain was bought by a corporation and began making Americanized pizza instead of Roman. And Marcus Auelius, by then known as Marcus Aurelius Verus Caesar, climbed his way to the top of the corporate ladder, and made a huge fortune by selling out. He was massively wealthy, but to the dishwashers and floor moppers who  knew him way back then, he was known  as the last of the good bosses, the Pax Romana. Long live Little Caesars.[/quote]
