@ruingod said, " WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME ? "
wanda wears a grin on her lips, hands folded at her front. ❛ with this newly aquired power as emperor, as lisan al-gaib to the fremen, i wish to see what you do with it. ❜ almost like a study. she takes a step toward paul, crimson dress following the movement of body where wanda had lowered the hood of her dress. green eyes strong, unforgiving, holding power behind them. ❛ the reverened mother helen finds you an annoyance for being male, ❜ she explains, ❛ but to me you're far more interesting. as someone who has witnessed the creation of the sisterhood, of the prophecy you now embody . . ❜ witch keeps the emperor's eye as she speaks , ❛ i wish to see how someone changes when they've been stripped of their mortality, their humanity, & made into a god. ❜

          he stares at himself in the mirror and fails to recognize himself.  in this moment he is both the boy that was exiled from this estate,  and the man that came back changed completely.  he spent more time than he'd like to admit trading verbal blows with hilo,  defending his own life,  his own decisions,  his own self.     (     '     my gods,  you're just like shae,  letting some american man make a fool of you.  i won't fucking put myself in a position of having to fix the mess you've made, blinded by your own stupid behavior.     '     )     anden splashes cold water on his face until his cheeks feel numb,  then pats it dry.  he takes deep breaths until he stops shaking,  until he feels like a hollow version of the person he was before coming back here.  down the hall,  ru's shrill shrieking turns into giggles,  and he forces a smile as he leaves the bathroom and finds paul with the kids.  it's devastating how good he is with them,  even if his method of entertaining is allowing the older two to scribble in his tattoos with non-toxic markers.  anden picks jaya up in his arms and lets her play with his glasses.  in kekonese,  he addresses the boys,     "     come on,  leave uncle paul alone.  are you trying to play tattoo artist  ?  your da won't be happy about that.     "     hand not holding on to the girl ruffles niko's hair and he tries not to think about how the boy is the spitting image of lan.  he wants to leave,  to turn around and never come back,  but he doesn't know how to explain what happened without breaking into pieces of himself.     to paul,  he says,     "     you're not tired yet  ?  i was sure they would've had you chasing them outside by now.  how'd you manage to keep them so calm  ?     "

❝ all men must die. we are but death’s instruments, not death himself. ❞
Tumblr media
❛ i am not a man. ❜ daenerys replied cheekily, feasting on the irony of it, drink coming to mouth which was half-parted in a smile. the heat was glued to her cheeks as essos' breeze came through the open balcony and she wondered ; this planet, her exile, her prision, had sand but no spice, and still, all said about arrakis was thrice as hard, harsh, as it was here. she could still let her mind wonder. violet gaze meeting pure blue. they could play pretend inside these walls. here, she ruled all, and the enemies could only try to climb inside the pyramid to listen. her men outside would show them the way out. his men would, too. would they try to attack me with the spread muad'dib by my side, as my guest?
❛ i don't fear death, duke atreides of arrakis. if that's what you mean. ❜ she offered the bronze cup, questioning if he'd take it. the warmth still allowed for water, still allowed for wine. she was but a girl, and he was a young boy, and still their backs hurt and they seemed older inside the crumbling palaces of forgotten houses and their hyms. whispering about death. ❛ do you? or do you feel like you own it? the right to kill and to let live. ❜ she did sometimes. it would be to lie to say she found no pleasure in letting rotten souls to burn. still, i am not here to use death as a personal matyr.

            "     i'm not sneaking up on you.  this is the loudest i exist.     "     which,  to his brother's credit,  isn't very loud.  he walks silently,  as if the shadows underneath are blackholes swallowing all light and sound,  and he isn't fond of drawing attention to himself in other ways.     "     this is my place anyway.  if you're so bothered,  leave.     "     please leave. please,  please,  please.  he's sick of seeing @ruingod's face everywhere,  tired of the questions and comments.  the company of his sisters is much preferred.   is it ethical to summon a monster and cause a single casualty event  ?     probably not,  but paul has worn down on any sense of ethics or morality that had existed within nico  —  he just needs to figure out the summoning part.

@ruingod: ❝  Still curious and willing to learn, I hope? ❞ / accepting.
Tumblr media
despite herself, one eyebrow twitches upwards. curious? always. it's a fatal flaw -- always searching, always looking under rocks at what may-or-may-not be. this often leads to her particular type of peril, her life in the spectral hands of those who no longer have one. but willing to learn? that often depends on what's being taught. "hm? wh - why d'y-you as-s-sk?"

“   if  anyone  is  ever  mean  to  you ,   i  will  break  all  of  their  fingers  individually .   ”
" --- has anyone ever like, told you you're like, really weird?" head tilts, eyebrow raises, a genuine question with a hint of judgement. it's not that gen isn't flattered, she is and she won't lie about it, rather their curiosity that drives her follow up questions. "like, don't get me wrong dude, like, thanks, totally, but like, gotta ask what you consider t'be mean? cause i don't want any fingers broken over like, someone callin' me annoyin', cause that's just like totally being honest." she shrugs and waves a hand, smiling now.

@ruingod — [ 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧 ] : sender is lifting captured receiver's chin up.
his actions don’t line up with her expectations, and that is what causes the pinpricks of anxiety along her spine. the restraints are trivial. locks and walls have never held her well ( her parents learned that the hard way ). even when survival didn’t move her piece across the checkered black and white board of pitfalls and quagmire, curiosity did. she’s hard to catch, harder to contain. creatures that ache for freedom often are. there’s only one gilded cage that has ever constrained her wings and it isn’t one of his creation.
breathing hitches when he touches her chin, a hiss like being burned. unseen eyes narrow and head attempts to twist out of tightening grip. but she meets his gaze, guilty pride wrenches it out of her.
" not going for the mask first? " ill - advised taunt cants her head to the side as much as he'll allow. habits die as hard as nurtured condescension. " do you have any idea how many people would kill for this opportunity? and you aren't even taking advantage of it. for shame. "

animosity palpably cascades to the swift clutch o'er the grip &. the trigger as a plea becomes an option in the conversation ––––after unbelievable years of unknown misery @ruingod had created upon him by simply existing &. lured his beloved into believing a false god that could save her &. her baby; the mortal that could resurrect the demise.
the man's scoffing upon his own musing as the muzzle of his gun forces the other to be small &. helpless: an image that he longs to witness, &. yet a satisfaction does not come. to know that misery can be lent to a person who does not know his misery, johann is debating to put his gun down, albeit his teeth is gritting from reluctance,
‘ i will put this down if you answer me this: can you really save people, that cannot even be saved? do you understand how long i've been looking for you––––only to see that you're just small &. weak. are you even a god my wife truly believed? ’ / CRIME THEMED SENTENCE STARTERS
