“  i don’t want you here.  just go.  ” 

“  you ‘didn’t mean to hurt me?’  yeah you did.  like it or not,  i know exactly who you are.  ” 

“  why won’t you even look at me?  ”

“  i’m not angry at you.  i’m angry with myself for trusting you.  ”

“  i wish you’d stop trying to destroy yourself in some misguided effort to feel worthy.  ”

“  i know it’s not fair to say this,  but i don’t have anything without you.  if i don’t have you i have nothing.  ”

“  you can’t love me.  not the way i need to be loved.  ”

“  i’m broken.  and i don’t need anyone to try to feed me white lies about it.  something inside me is broken and it isn’t just going to be put back like it was.  ” 

“  sometimes being broken isn’t about trying to put things back together like they were before.  it’s about picking up what pieces are left and building something new.  ”

“  okay,  so you’re a monster.  so am i.  lets be monsters together.  ” 

“  because of what they/you did i’m damaged.  ”

“  my world is just falling apart.  it’s like everything is just crumbling around me.  i don’t know what to do.  i just want it to stop ”  

“  you’re the only thing that makes sense right now.  everything else is just—  the world is so loud.  and the only time it feels quiet is when you’re here.  ”

“  i don’t know how to talk about shit okay?  it’s too hard.  but i do care.  i need you to trust me that i care.  ”

 “  stop punishing yourself.  you wanna make up for what you’ve done?  get off your ass and do something about it.  ”

“  whatever it is you think was going on between us,  you’re wrong.  ”

“  it didn’t mean anything to me.  ” 

“  you should move on.  i did.  ”  

“  i feel like i’m one bad day away from becoming everything i’ve fought against.  ” 

“  stop pushing me away.  i’m not going anywhere,  asshole.  and as soon as you get that through that thick skull of yours,  the better.  ”  

“  i don’t need you in my life.  i don’t want you in it.  ”  

“  i can’t trust myself.  if i let myself get comfortable enough,  when i try to be happy,  people get hurt.  ”  

“  people like me don’t get to have peace.  ”  

“  i’m not the person you want.  i know you think i am.  but it won’t take long for you to realize this is a mistake.  ”  

“  you want the truth?  the truth is when i love people it burns inside me like a poison.  it infects every part of me until it feels like they’re in my goddamn soul…and then i fuck it up.  and it’ll destroy us both.  ”  

“  i’ll always choose you.  that’s the worst part of it all.  i’d choose you over and over, even though i know you wouldn’t do the same.  ”  

“  you never had to be perfect.  you just had to stay.  ”

“  will you please just stay for once.  just.  don’t walk away.  ” 

“  if i loved you less,  i might be able to talk about it more.  ”   

“  just tell me something real.  tell me something i can remember no matter what happens to us.  ”

“  when you look at me,  i feel seen.  i feel like you see past everything i’ve always surrounded myself with to try and protect my heart.  no one has ever looked that deeply at me.  ”  

“  how can you uncover so much about someone,  make them let their guard down and lay themselves bare to you.  and then just throw it all away?  ”

“  if you walk out that door don’t bother coming back.  ”

“  why are you so afraid of trusting this—  trusting us.  what’s making you hold back?  ”

“  will you still be here?  will you stay even after you’ve seen all the ugly parts of my heart.  ”  

“  i don’t care how willing you are to die for me.  i want you to fucking live with me.  live for us.  ”

Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen paced in the gardens of Kaitain like a trapped animal. The only time he had ever been off-world was to visit Lankiveil, a world almost as inhospitable as Arrakis with it's deep oceans and frozen tundras. He still wasn't sure why his Uncle had brought him here to Kaitain supposedly to discuss Spice contracts with the Padishah Emperor but his uncle glowed with hidden plans and agendas like a cherub. Feyd hoped of course this was a sign his Uncle intended to make him his heir but he knew better than to trust signs or portents. Even- He paused abruptly in his pacing when he saw a small bird flitting among the trees.

At the edge of the universe is a paradise where the birds flew to called Lintukoto. He had so few memories of his mother, but he could remember her voice telling him that story when he'd been very small. Of course there were few if any birds on Giedi Prime anymore. His estate named after the Lintukoto of legend had originally been a hunting lodge, a hunting lodge for animals that no longer lived in the Pillingtam trees for which Giedi Prime and his house had first made their fortune. He wanted to run to his brother far away on Arrakis and tug at his sleeve. Glossu! Glossu! Look what I found!

With a fighter's quickness he spun around when he heard footsteps. His eyes still wide with a child's wonder at the bird. His face blanched realizing this was the princess, Irulan, Shaddam's eldest and most favored daughter. Later he would say he did it because of her beauty but in that moment-awed by the bird and this princess who both seemed like creatures from a fairy story he forgot everything and bowed low the way the farmers and peasants on his planet did for him.

a subtle incline of golden locks , reminiscent of a nod rather , veils the faint smile lingering on rose - tined lips , lace - clad fingertips brought to porcelain facade to obscure sheer amusement , momentarily dispelling her regal demeanour . feline gaze ignites with curiosity as she shamelessly studies him , a habit granted by entitlement of being the emperor's daughter , or perhaps a girlish vigour seeping through the cracks of a meticulously crafted statue of an heiress .

He still mountains in the shoulders. There are still shrieks in the grandstands and his uncle will be making an ovation of it now, like this is his day.

Suppose it is. Suppose the baron has won something. But that later.

She's not what Feyd-Rautha was promised. His eyes go to slits the way of the white grin redding his tongue. Takes a slick moment between cells— still hot and loud in the chest where he's all thermal quickness, the tight pound of killing— to read the princess royal down.

He's enjoying the way this thrums: empty quiet, big oval room, him and her and him him him.

❛ Except they weren't. ❜ Blood glints between tongue and vowel. ❛ Just dogs. ❜

How about Father Fearest. What does he think.

❛ I didn't know the emperor was in audience today. Highness. ❜

a subtle arch of a perfectly - shaped brow , porcelain facade veiled by translucent lace , concealing sheer disapproval . as though disentangling herself from her father's machinations ; as if her passive assent freed her of the weight of blood - stained hands . she comprehends the sober truth : a sagacious ruler relies on executioner for their ominous stratagems to maintain an appearance of equitable autocracy in the eyes of his subjects . someone to soil their hands with ichor & carve their path to the emperor's favour . a golden rule best understood on giedi prime - 𝚙𝚘𝚠𝚎𝚛 𝚑𝚊𝚜 𝚝𝚘 𝚋𝚎 𝚐𝚗𝚊𝚠𝚎𝚍 𝚠𝚒𝚝𝚑 𝚝𝚎𝚎𝚝𝚑 . and here he is - bathed in ovations of his retinue , tinged muscle ready to receive the laurels for his ruthlessness . and here she stands , a sacrificial lamb for his triumphant carnage .
