Yeah so I couldn't stop thinking about this idea of Chani being in some kind of command position in Paul's army attacking Arrakeen so here we go.

The war camp is huge, slouched out along a narrow valley between towering dunes, and it's one of many. Thousands of fighters streaming up from the south at the command of Muad'Dib.

She sets up her tent on the furthest edge of camp, backed up against the dune. Without any discussion, Adaner and Emad have planted their tents on either side of her, almost closing her in. She doesn't know these people, and she can't guarantee that some too-ardent zealot won't have a go at silencing a dissenting voice while everyone is sleeping.

It's late afternoon, too hot to sleep still, so she sits outside her tent doing one last check of her gear. They'll start the final push toward Arrakeen after midnight.

The sun is slanting dramatically over the dunes when he finds her. He has...guards? servants? hangers-on? with him now. Three southern men and one woman, none of whom she has seen before.

"Chani."

She looks up from sharpening her knife, but stays exactly where she is, sitting cross-legged on the ground. She's not jumping to her feet for him.

"I have nothing to say to you." She stares him down.

He's wearing that cloak again, the black one he's had since the war council. She has no idea where he got it. She has seen the sum total of his wardrobe tossed in a pile on the floor of her room and there was nothing like that among it. Harkonnen black is her gut reaction every time she sees it. But no. He was wearing black the day he first stepped off an Atreides warship onto her world, wasn't he? It's Atreides black if it's anything.

After a minute he seems to realize she is really not going to say anything to him. He dismisses his newly-acquired attendants with a wave of his hand. One of the men is staring down at her with particular suspicion and doesn't scurry away fast enough. "Leave us," he says, quiet but pointed.

It makes her shudder, how effortlessly he has slipped back into being someone who is used to giving orders and having them obeyed.

"As you wish, Lisan al-Gaib," the man mutters, and fucks off to do who knows what.

He's still staring down at her. She's still staring up at him. She still has nothing to say to him.

He opens his mouth, closes it again, then says, quiet and even: "I've split the northern fedaykin into two battalions for the attack. Stilgar will command one. I want you to command the other."

Of all the tactics she had expected him to try, this wasn't one of them. She does get to her feet then. Not because she has any respect left for him. Just to look him in the eye. She doesn't bother sheathing her knife, and he doesn't flinch. She searches his face, looking for any hint that this is some kind of trap, or an attempt at flattery, or a wildly inappropriate form of apology.

"Why?" she asks.

"Because I trust you."

She wants to scream. She wants to scream I TRUSTED YOU TOO AND LOOK WHERE IT GOT ME! right in his face. She clenches her jaw instead.

"What if I say no?" Will you simply make me do it, like your mother did?

(He doesn't know. She has to keep telling herself he doesn't know about that, because thinking about any of the alternatives--that he could accept or even plan such a violation--makes her want to dry-heave.)

He shrugs, a tiny, resigned movement. "It's your choice. But you already know you're the best person for it."

The infuriating thing is, she does. They've been discussing battle strategy for weeks now, as the number of fighters who would follow his command grew from twenty to two hundred. Figuring out together how to best organize large numbers of fedaykin who are used to fighting with two dozen friends they've known their whole lives. He's told her everything he knows about Arrakeen; its defenses and how they can be compromised. Drawn a map of as much as he can remember of the city, and the exact layout of the ducal residency including the secret passageways that even the servants don't know about. He's told her everything he knows about the Sardaukar, how they fight differently from the Harkonnens. He's even told her how he would fight his own House's troops, if they had still been holding Arrakeen.

It enrages her all over again. Because they should be doing this together, they should be doing this as equals, I trusted you, I trusted you, YOU PROMISED--

She's not sure if he expects her to make a decision right now. After she doesn't respond for a long moment, he says, "There's a briefing in an hour, in the big tent. Come if you accept the position."

"As you wish, Lisan al-Gaib," she spits.

She sees the flinch; she knows she hurt him with that but she can't bring herself to feel bad about it. What else did he expect?

Nothing, it seems, because he just nods once, almost to himself, and walks away.

weekly tag wednesday! 💫

thank you for tagging me @darlingian & @energievie 🩷

which character from any media would you like to have as a father?: stealing chani's answer because no one could possibly top bob belcher 🍔

if money, laws, time, and effort were no object, what animal would you want to have?: as someone who used to work with exotic wild animals who were rescued from the pet trade and needed to be re-taught how to act like wild animals, i'm not gonna answer this one. i know some wild animals are more amenable to being pets but sorry i hate fun!!! 😇

what is your Chinese takeout order?: veggie lo mein or chicken fried rice

what's your favourite emoji?: 🌸 this guy but also 💫 this guy.

would you rather have a library, greenhouse, or home theater in your house?: we have a library and i'm obsessed with it, i wouldn't trade it for either of the others. it's a silly little room but i love it in there. it used to be a deck and the previous owners closed it in and made it part of the house, so the floor and ceiling are a little slanted. but i'm in there all the time in my cozy chair.

what childhood tv show do you think of the most fondly?: hehe rugrats

what was your tumblr like when you first joined?: my old tumblr from 2013 was like a horny aesthetic blog with a little bit of fandom stuff and music stuff. the fandom and music stuff i reblogged was like carefully curated though, in keeping with the aesthetic. what a pain in the ass.

what clothing style do you love but don't feel compelled to replicate yourself?: i've been trying to think of something for like 20 minutes so i'm gonna skip this one lol

if you were plopped into a fictional world, which one would you know the layout of the best?: if i was dropped in supernatural i could make my way around that huge ass bunker without even thinking about it, which is so embarrassing.

what is your favourite piece of art?: i always come back to hero and leander by rubens 🌊

do you have a water bottle? what does it look like?: yeah, it's gray and it has a ram's head on it and says "fortune favors the brave" lmfao. my husband got it as a christmas gift from a coworker a few years ago and i've stolen it. 🐏

what fanfic trope is a quiet fave?: lately i'm really into whumpy hurt/comfort

do you carry a daily bag? what does it look like? what's the weirdest thing in it?: i carry a bag sometimes, it's a black leather backpack. i just looked and there's not much in there because i don't carry it very often. maybe the tylenol is weird?

If you had to ship Mickey with another Gallagher, who would it be?: ah man, maybe lip? that feels like the obvious one. some enemies to lovers action. how fun would it be for those two to fuck it out?

what is a fanfic trope you didn't expect to like and then very much did?: AUs! this fandom made me an au guy.

Do you think s11 Mickey can still carry s11 Ian?: i think he tries! i think he wraps his arms under his butt and lifts him a little and staggers for a second, but it's easier when it's a piggyback ride. 🥰

who got custody of the killing bat when they sold the house?: carl or debbie! probably debbie tbh.
