Give me back my gay. Although even when they’re not gay, they’re the gayest ever

Oh my god Margot Fenring x Lady Jessica sprinkles?

Man, we don’t actually spend too much time with the Atreides family yet in these short pages I gotten to know their deepest character and I’m so scared for them

“… the basic trust to learn” oh my god, deep down Paul wanted to believe in some way he is the One because that would mean his grief means something. The tragedy he has to endure of what his parents (his mom) wants of him at least has meaning if he had a real purpose

Oh god, the hunter seeker… that must be so scary. And so it all begins NOW.

“I should place more trust in my friends.” BROO…
The end of this chapter, man this is all so sad.

I loved getting to see Jessica and Yueh’s turmoil. We’ve been able to see more of Jessica’s pov which is so nice to know she’s sensed a huge dread incoming. Such a tragedy that her life’s entire downfall is the humanity, the identity of herself outside of the B.G :(

The way Jessica knows and gave the deepest fear that Leto doesn’t have much time and regines will change soon. It’s just the subtlety in the writing. Yum

Writing my Act Two and this is just so intense but that pedicure fight was gay as hell

I forgot what the Reverend Mother says about the Duke but I do like how direct the expose is from Leto compared to everyone else. He seems to be the closest to Paul, or the one that holds him as a human, a son, rather than what he can become. Love the impending doom of “thought of the wet skies …the thought of skies put his mind on space…” I love romantic stuff like this. Arrow to the next scene type writing

Knowing what Dr. Yueh does and reading this passage is so sad. You can tell he’s compartmentalizing what he has to do. His mind is present for his mission but his body begs for another path

Something about nature is the summation of what’s growing without the means of what will happen in the future. And Paul thinking “so what is now?” Paul is already so observant, curious, and with a sense of stubborn self justice which will catapult him soon. I love learning a lot about Gurney, he’s more complex here than the movies. He’s nice and genuine.

Feels like a goodbye reading these first beginning pages

They’re gay your honor.

My friend put me up for this and now I am growing closer to my friends and making up a book club, calling while reading. It’s so so fun together

Gemma and Ruth’s attraction stems from shame. They’re both dependent on the lavish buzz each other gives. Ruth has never felt the genuineness from Gemma and is addicted. Emotional wealth. Ruth provides physical pamper Gemma never had

Wow resuming to reading real books after a year.

I am getting more into this now, especially the way Baron’s described and his dynamics with Feyd and Piter.

I really love how nuanced Jessica is already because Paul is kind of like her. Stubborn, despite the fate and destiny laid ahead. Except Jessica is really clear and yet she still wants to go against it despite her efforts won’t be met. More human than most

Gonna actually start reading this proper because Dune: Part Three is incoming

Currently getting introduced to the Harkonnens and the dynamics is not different from what I’ve seen in the film but interesting we see Feyd-Rautha first than Rabban

After getting obsessed with Denis Villeneuve’s films, I’ve finally bought the book (was in my wishlist for a while). So excited to read more details about the character and the world!

WUH LUH WUH
Finally they made up again. It was gruesome getting through the ignoring phase. Didn’t like it. But they made up fanfic style and it’s kinda cute. Are they not going to acknowledge Mitsuki Osawa’s crush now that she knows?

OOOHH!! We’re at the point everyone has been anticipating… but the way Aya Osawa finds out it’s so anticlimactic that it just feels natural. It was unexpected and took me by surprise.

Although… she was getting too comfortable going to take Koga’s earbuds for a listen…I’d leave it alone. Boundaries…please. Koga’s’ better than me. This sequence is reminding me too hard on someone I know.
