“Do you have something in mind?” He asked before making his way over to her bed and sitting on the edge.
“Not quite yet …” Thera sat up, fingers combing through her morning bed-head, “I’ve only just been given the possibility.” If she’d known sooner, then staying asleep would definitely have been an option - which might be why Leto had saved it as a surprise. “What are your thoughts on the matter?”
“I was thinking of heading to the fishing cabin or perhaps taking a walk along the shore...” Leto mused before placing his hands in his lap. Wondering what he might actually do with the time given to him.
“i have a lot going for me, but humility is not one of them.” (from Gurney)
The Duke glanced over at the Warmaster and hummed in response. “Well, you are a man of talents and one of my most trusted men. Your singing career will take off soon enough and you’ll leave me with just Duncan.” Leto spoke with a grin. The Duke was more than thankful for his two Warmasters. Both of them together were a force that with the Atreides force could easily rival the Emperor’s Sardaukar. At least that's what some had whispered even if Leto had never truly thought on it. His men were loyal and he ensured that all were treated fairly. Men or women.

“Unless you feel the urge to simply go to the study to work.” He chuckled before running a hand through his hair. “I thought you might like to enjoy a day off as well.”
“Now, that’s an urge I find very easy to resist.” A long stretch, working the last of sleep out of her muscles. “Are there any plans for the day, or are we making it up as we go?”
“Do you have something in mind?” He asked before making his way over to her bed and sitting on the edge.

“Enjoying a rare day off…” He hummed before pushing all thoughts of responsibility out of his mind for a moment.
“Ooh, a day off …” Thera chuckled, wondering if that was planned or impulse, “Does that mean I’m having one too?”
“Unless you feel the urge to simply go to the study to work.” He chuckled before running a hand through his hair. “I thought you might like to enjoy a day off as well.”
"And good morning to you, my Duke."
“Good morning, m’lady. How did you sleep?”
“Very well, thank you ... not surprisingly. Yourself?”
“Enjoying a rare day off…” He hummed before pushing all thoughts of responsibility out of his mind for a moment.

Oscar Isaac as Leto Atreides in DUNE
A plate full of heart-shaped cookies and a cup full of coffee are waiting for Leto on his desk, with a little home-made card. "My Hawk, I have to run to a meeting with Jessica and Thufir this morning and I didn't have time to ask you, but where I come from, we have what we call Love Day, a celebration of every love that exists. We gift each other little reminders and sweets to our loved ones and spend some quality time together. I didn't know if you had something like that here, but that doesn't mean I cannot wish you a Happy Love Day. Have a nice day <3, Your Dove,"
Leto couldn’t stop the smile that came to his face as he saw the cookies and coffees on his desk. Taking one cookie and taking a small bite before sipping the coffee. Such a small little gesture had warmed his heart and now he wanted to find her to spend the day with her. The day’s plans could all wait until tomorrow while he plan for them to have a day just for them. Finishing the cookie and holding his coffee, Leto left his study on a mission to find his beloved dove for the day.
