can i just say i love how anytime paul uses his nerd brain to seem like he has preconceived knowledge of how the desert works everyone else is soooo impressed but the one time he tries it on chani with the "🤓☝️ um actually sandwalking is-" she just kills him with her eyes until he shuts the fuck up

It's apparently an unpopular opinion, but... I like Paul. The idea of two people who merge into one person is deeply fascinating to me. Paul is based on Cam and Pal but also more than just Cam + Pal... A kinda new, kinda familar character. I'm really exciting to get to know them properly.

Could I get prompt 7 with a female tourist reader passing through Santa Carla with Marko?👀
7. I am freezing, can I borrow your coat?
Absolutely! I hope you like this, and thanks for requesting!💜
----------------------
In a city like Santa Carla, it was hard to truly stand out. Everyone was their own kind of crazy, and it took a certain something to truly stand out. That's why the town was such a haven for the undead, the unknown, and the unnatural. To stand out, there had to be something unique or special about them - at least for humans. For a vampire, it took less. A certain smell, a certain blood type - or the lack of all of these things.
Maybe that was why Marko had kept an eye on her all night, wondering why his eyes kept being drawn to her. She didn't smell any different than any other women around, she didn't have a rare bloodtype... no, based on scent alone she was just like any other women in the crowd. And yet - he couldn't quite put a finger on it.
I had noticed the stares he gave me, when I joined the crowds. When I went to a small concert at the beach, following the show up with a drink at a bar. Wherever I went, I felt his eyes upon me. And if I was being honest, it unnerved me quite a bit.
When I got out of the bar I saw him staring at me again, little over ten feet away. I took a small breath, deciding that this was it. I walked towards him, head held high, ready to tell him I was done with him being a creep when-
"Oh my gosh, I am so sorry!" An old woman had bumped right into me, holding what could only be described as a bucket that was once filled with ice cold water. I was totally drenched, shivering as the wind picked up. "You must forgive me, dear, I didn't see you-"
"Yeah," I waved her off, "sure. Don't worry about it." I stepped past her, frowning when I realised that the boy that had been staring wasn't there.
As I walked over the boardwalk, searching for the boy - or man, whatever his age was - I couldn't help but shiver. I was still wet, and the wind was only getting stronger. I couldn't stay like this much longer, and I decided to head in to the next restaurant to see if I could order some tea and some soup to warm up.
The only store that was still open is the Chinese restaurant at the corner of the walk, and with a small sigh I pushed the door open. The smell of rice and noodles hit my nose instantly. I went up to the counter, placing my order for a tea and some noodle soup when I saw him.
"You!" I looked at him. "You've been staring at me all night!"
"I have."
I blinked. He didn't even deny it. That was weird, right?
"Why?"
"You're different."
"Why?" I asked it again, sliding in the seat across from him.
"I don't know."
"I don't like being stared at. If I catch you again, I will -"
"You'll what?" He asked, sounding more curious than threatening. I shrugged slightly.
"I don't know, burn your eyes out, or cut them out or something."
He chuckled. "Then I'll make sure you won't catch me."
I glared at him, causing him to grin. He kept looking at me, taking me in.
"You're shivering."
I bit my tongue as I looked at him. He wanted to play all flirty all night? Fine, I could play that game too.
"I am freezing, can I borrow your coat?"
Now it was his turn to be taken aback.
"Bit forward."
"So is staring."
"It's different."
"It's not, though. I was serious about my question, I feel like I'm turning into an icecube here."
He sighed as he took his jacket of, handing it to me.
"I'm Marko."
I smiled as I took the jacket, putting it on. It was large and incredibly warm - I instantly felt better. When he told me his name, I decided I would tell him mine. Maybe we got off on the wrong foot here.
"Am I really that different?" I asked as the waitress brought me my tea and soup.
"It's mainly your attitude. I can't really describe it."
"But it's obvious enough to stare?"
"You looked back, though."
I nodded as I sipped my tea. "I did. Maybe I wanted to know who I was dealing with."
"What would you have done, if you hadn't been doused with water?"
"I'd probably would have yelled at you, called you a creep and depending on your response I might have hit you in the face."
"You had a plan."
I grinned at him, quite enjoying his presence. "Absolutely. Never go anywhere without it."
"So, what's your plan with my coat?"
"Hm," I thought for a moment, eating some bites of my soup, "I'm keeping it hostage."
"You're keeping my coat hostage?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"That way you have a definite reason to pick me up tomorrow evening."
I smiled at him causing him to laugh. Yeah, as unnerving as his staring had been, he was fun. The banter had been proof of that.
"Alright. How about I also drop you off tonight?"
"I wouldn't mind that. But I'm still keeping your jacket."
"I'll take it back tomorrow."
"We'll see," I grinned, placing some bills on the table and standing up. His order was called out, and he led me outside to his bike.
Marko grinned as he felt her arms wrapped tightly around him. He still wasn't sure what she was to him or why, but he knew that he wouldn't kill her. Something about her made it impossible to do so. Besides, he liked her company. As he drove through the streets towards her motel, he couldn't help but feel as if this was all somehow exactly how it was supposed to be.

estranged 70s john and paul fall through some kind of portal which takes them to an alternate universe where their mirror selves are a serious long-term couple (up to the writer if this means the beatles are still together or if they’re just vibing on paul’s farm). discomfort and angst ensues

Maybe that makes it all worth it.
This has been sitting thumbed out in my sketchbook for almost a year now so I'm glad to have it out in the world now.
Thought I'd include some of my favourite stills from this:

it's wild to me that people act as if chani's primary reason for leaving paul was bitterness about being a concubine like girl..... i promise that did not even register in her brain compared to the realization that paul had chosen to become her people's oppressor, to become her oppressor, to destroy the equality that was very foundation of their relationship. i promise her agency and her loyalty to her people, things which existed before paul and will exist after him, were more important to her than how "official" her relationship would be considered within a system she did not care about.

A parallel I love in Dune: Part 2 (so… spoilers. duh.)
(I did not realize this on my own, it was Nikhil Clayton’s tiktok that pointed this out so go check out his video)
When we’re introduced to Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen he’s fighting what the Harkonnens believe are the last three members of House Atreides. Two of the three men are bigger and more imposing while the other one is skinnier and looks weaker by comparison. But the two bigger ones are actually drugged and easily bested by Feyd-Rautha, while the skinnier one isn’t and is actually able to have a fair duel with Feyd-Rautha. The duel goes on until both fighters are fighting over one knife and eventually Feyd-Rautha is able to beat the skinnier fighter and supposedly destroy all of House Atreides.
Then later in the movie, Paul finds out that he is part Harkonnen due to Lady Jessica being The Baron’s daughter. Later when Paul is asked what he’s gonna do to stop the Harkonnens, Paul responds with something along the lines of “We’re Harkonnens, that’s how we’ll win. By being Harkonnens.” (again, I am paraphrasing that).
And that’s exactly what Paul does. When it comes to the Harkonnens, there are three faces that come to mind in the movie, the Baron, Rabban, and Feyd-Rautha and look-wise, the Baron and Rabban are much bigger and more imposing, so you’d think they’d be a bigger challenge, but no, Paul and Gurney are able to defeat those two very easily. Leaving only Feyd-Rautha, the skinnier one of the three, to have an actual fair duel with Paul, where it eventually comes down them fighting for the control of one knife until Paul eventually gets the upper hand and defeats Feyd-Rautha.
So when we see Feyd-Rautha in the arena, he is literally showing us how he and his family will be taken down and when Paul says they defeat House Harkonnen by being Harkonnens, he’s saying he will do the exact same thing we saw Feyd-Rautha do to defeat House Atreides.
I just think that that’s all really neat.
Thanks for reading!

Tell me no, and we’ll go on as we have been . . . and we’ll go on unafraid . . . but say yes, and we will make this end, and this beginning, together.
