Ughhh can I please just say how IN LOVE I am with the line ‘Love me, do as I say and I will become your slave.’ It’s such a beautiful paradoxical line I can’t help but obsess over! The idea of winning someone’s love and devotion by submitting your will over to them is such a unique choice that I find so fitting for Feyd-Rautha and his character. (I’m re-reading Macbeth and am just so captivated by the use of paradox in relation to the play I can’t help but pick it out in everything else I read)
Magnificent work as always can’t wait for more <3
hey there, baby love!
can i just say- i absolutely adore when people pick out certain lines or scenes from my works and make comments on them. it’s seriously one of my favorite things ever. the line is just so fitting for feyd.
the reader has been carted off to this entirely different planet with the promise of bridging the gap between two long-feuding houses. ahhh!
and that is so cool! i read macbeth in high school and remember genuinely enjoying it.
i also love the phrase “do you yield” that was used with paul while he was training and came into play later on in the first dune film. it can be spun in so many ways with the reader and feyd’s relationship- which is where the whole “submission” subplot is really going to come into play. the reader doesn’t want to submit to the idea of marrying someone she, at the current moment, absolutely detests. she doesn’t want to submit to the harkonnen’s nor does she want to submit to her future husband.
thank you so much for all your support. i absolutely adore you!
