#welcome back to your regular programming of 'lee has feelings about feyd'

[impercre]

So in the new film Feyd Rautha is presented as an almost Kwizats Haderach albeit one the Bene Gesserit can control. While this is a change I do like and respect from an adaption standpoint it's simply not present in the books. I have toyed with the idea of Feyd being an almost Kwizats Haderach myself in the past but I'm going to consciously disregard it from here on out. With regards to my portrayal of Feyd Rautha I've come to find I like leaning into his normal-ness. He can be fairly charming and charismatic, but he's also very aware of his limitations and is trying to work around them by the books end. I've also come to feel that Feyd doesn't need to be 'special' to have 'value'. He's human, one who's been abused and mistreated but trying desperately to climb out of the mud when he's stamped down under the boot of Paul's ascent.
