In between my reign as Emperor, people didn't always agree with my decisions. This made me nervous.

  2. Friend Request: Hello Domitian. This is Trajan. I would like you to be my friend because you helped get me appointed to Consul under your rule. You also appointed me the governor of Upper Germania. I believe that you added to me becoming an emperor.

  3. I can't believe you. You put lots of senators to death! But karma came around and got you killed too.

  4. My dear son! How well you are doing becoming emperor after me. You truly are following in your father's footsteps. Emperor isn't an easy job and you won't always have the people on your side, but getting through that time is what makes you known for years to come. Your mother and I can't even describe our emotions of your success. I raised you well and I am looking over you from here in the Elysian Fields.
