"I am not certain about who will be around to back my appointment to a seat on the college of pontiffs, is my main concern. Wars and Pro-consulships could result in lackluster support. So while I will back you for Sicily, it might be awhile before you can return the service."

"I look to do my father honour by beginning the cursus honorum this year. I intend to do this by running for Quaester this year. I was hoping to gain your backing."
"Quaestor ? Not Aedile? While your family has a recognizable name, it is always good to grab the attention of the populace by holding games."

"Traditionally, Aedile is before Quaestor"
