fuckigbgdg Paul has access to the memory of Baron. At the moment he meets Feyd-Rautha, he knows exactly what shaped him into this. He knows about the abuse. Omyfgdjjffjdf god

#need to ponder this more #like i have a moment like that in my fic but. NEED MORE PONDERING #dune #paul atreides #feyd rautha

Also on that train of thought

The fics that have Feyd Rautha simp for Paul not because of a competency kink (which is arguably canon to the film - isn't that the reason why y'all say he looks turned on in the film?) but because of a misplaced adherence to the Bene Gesserit prophecy/plans (that Paul was meant to be Feyd's match in marital affairs) is not as inspired as you might think it is. It's not brave to say oh this boy was promised a gf and now he's pussywhipped for the boy he got in her stead. You've just reinvented a trans chaser with extra steps.

Also, the idea that Feyd Rautha would put that much faith in a prophecy feels reductive for a character that is already not a major-major player in the plot. I still need to read the book to get a better gauge on his character, but I've heard that he appears for a grand total of 4 scenes, which is kind of more or less the extent of his appearance in the films too. I would hope expanding on his characterisation meant giving him more agency (or at least a drive towards emancipation and agency) and more ambition amidst all the plans that have been made for him long before he was born. If he's truly as power hungry as Part Two seems to suggest - he has the will to assassinate his uncle Baron Harkonnen until he was appeased by the appointment of stewardship on Arrakis and the prospect of marrying Irulan for the throne - then what makes you think he would settle for doing as the Bene Gesserit expects of him? If he pursues Paul as a partner it would be through his own means and for reasons that defy the BG's chokehold on the imperium.

#THIS SO MUCH #also. can i be controversial yet brave: #no matter if paul is trans or not he would top feyd. honestly? ESPECIALLY if he is trans. #trans paul atreides #feydpaul #paulfeyd #dune

Kinda hilarious to me how all the fics have Feyd-Rautha going "cousin" this "cousin" that when canonically it's Paul who called him his cousin first

#i think feyd heard this and RAN with it #but technically you are right. #i shall consider. #feydpaul #paulfeyd #dune

Sherlock Holmes, for all of the canon: "I'm not sure if it's normal for a guy to move into my apartment and start writing a biography about me, but I don't know enough about having friends to dispute it."

While my daydreams about a Silmarillion adaptation tend to go the way of a live action series (or sometimes an arthouse Children of Hurin movie), I can't deny that it would be incredible to see done in animation

#it would be amazing

#me going thru all the comments to understand this

my personal, totally baseless and for-fun theory is that humans are so fascinated by the idea of sapient humanoid aliens because our oldbrain misses those 8 or so other species of human that used to exist 300k years ago

I think the beauty of being a multifandom blogger just means you have the power to try and drag others into fandoms with you that they didn’t originally follow you for
