I think it would be a waste of time. But do you have a longer break over Summer we could work around? If you let me know the dates, I will try to ensure you have an adult avatar in that period and so can productively join the Lower House. IIRC, you are the most senior Senator, so it won't be a problem.

Also, what about an avatar for Tricky Lady? The daughter of Quintus is an ideal character, being of the correct age and having the connections needed to have any influence in the senate. We can just pretend that she speaks through a male-friend of hers.
If this were MTW or M2TW then Princesses would be suitable avatars for the Upper House. But one problem with Rome is that the daughter does not have a representation on the map. Tricky_Lady may prefer a conventional Senator, as then he will have more to do e.g. be a governor. But if she wants a daughter, I am happy to oblige. If so, she should have a veto over suitors. I might even let her control the husband - some wives do that
