What the hell, why not. None of these are on Tumblr but they're all on AO3 and I thought I'd link them.

Vikings

Athelstan:

My Good Deeds, They Will End Me (Oneshot, in which Athelstan builds a church. Based on a dream of @grantairescurls)

Hallowed (Oneshot, a short introspective fic about Athelstan's trauma and grief after Wessex, and all else that has built up to it.)

There is Thunder in Our Hearts (Somewhat politics/plot focused, full of angst, misunderstandings, miscommunication and guilt when one of Ragnar's impatient decisions leads to Athelstan being injured and almost killed.) Command Me To Be Well (Amen) (oneshot, angst and Ragnar being protective/vengeful when someone thinks they can get away with hurting his priest) If I don't get some shelter, I'm gonna fade away (9 chapters, gen/kind of found family, lots of h/c, mixed pov but mostly Athelstan)

WIBTA for indulging the delusions of several people?

TW: drugs, cults

This is a bit complicated.

Basically it starts with me (16M) and my parents moving about a year ago to a new city. At that time I was in a bit of a weird place mentally and my parents were extra worried about me because I didn't know anybody. The place we moved to also has a reputation for having...I guess lots of drug-related subculture is the best way to describe it, so my parents were worried about me getting into drugs.

I did end up getting into drugs. But at the time it was a social thing, you know? I didn't know anyone there and had no friends, so people around my age welcoming me (even ended up meeting my girlfriend through these guys) was really nice, even if most of our interactions involved substances.

So here's where it gets...difficult. My dad has been busy for a while with work stuff and I'm alone with my mom for most of the time. While I *do* have a good relationship with her, she has often tried to get me involved with her religion...which is sort of a cult. Not super pressuring, but enough that it bothered me. After we'd moved she's been trying this more often. And then... things started getting weird with my friend group. Really weird. My mom started trying to convert them too and they started getting like, obsessed with me? Some of them seem to think I'm some kind of "prophet" and are trying to get other people to "follow" me too...it's like I've become their cult leader without meaning to?? The thing is...while I absolutely do not want whatever this is, I'm tempted to just say "fuck it, okay I'm your cult leader" and roll with it? Idk. Weirdly, my mom thinks it's fine and is even encouraging???

I think I might be way in over my head now though. I don't want to be the bad guy here, but everyone seems to want me as their leader and I'm afraid of what will happen if I accept. Would I be the asshole if I accepted my destiny as Lisan-al-Gaib and made a play for the Imperial throne??

Alright ya'll. Longish first excerpt from The Dune Fic below vvv

Cw: mild wound description, suggested suicidal ideation

His sleeping quarters had little light – but just enough  to let her faintly make out the grey, crumpled figure on the floor.

Irulan stilled, fingers gripping the door handle. Made an attempt to slow her breathing and thoughts. Was he even alive? She was so sure she’d timed it right, that she wouldn’t be too late. If she was...if they found her here with him...

Shit.

#dune#it's...it's a LONG excerpt guys I am sorry#and pretty rough still#like i said i jumped ahead to write this bit#paul atreides#irulan corrino#paul x irulan#i guess?

our house... in the middle of our leaves¹

¹This is a humourous riff on the lyrics to the song "Our House" by the English ska-pop band, Madness. "Our House" is considered a working class anthem, which contrasts the bourgeoisie lifestyle of the Navidson family.²

²Alright, while the music stuff is factually correct it's still a huge stretch to connect the song and the family this way. Sometimes a corny joke is just a corny joke.
#house of leaves#ok that's pretty funny

pros if the august start date is true: ....they start filming in august

cons if the august start date is true: i, a chronicly slow writer, only have 9 months to write my longfic bc i really really really want it to be done a) before the movie comes out and b) with as little influence from the actual 3rd film as possible

Ok there are two wolves inside of me and one is like "probably shouldn't put too much stock in a placeholder summary provided by the studio when afaik the script isn't even done yet" and the other one is like HEIR?? SINGULAR?? Like what if they do use the discarded Leto II v1 plotline in some way and THEN do the time jump, or they do something even wilder like make the time jump a lot shorter and have Anya-Taylor-Joy-Alia only appear in visions of the future or something, which doesn't seem to track with what we've heard about her role so far but now I am questioning all my assumptions. But also the first wolf is probably right.

Anyway the source is legit (Production List) and an August 2025 start seems reasonable for the rumored December 2026 release date. But everything could still move around.

Yeah like. My instinct is to not believe things that should in theory be pretty huge??? but are kind of put out there nonchalantly like that....HOWEVER my brain is still buzzing I can't help it....

I'll admit the "Leto II.1 plot happens and then time jump comes after (possibly right after his death??) and we see both the immediate effects of Part 2 and also the future stuff" is kind of the vibe I've been picturing/hoping...I'm soooo unwell about all of this.........

#dune#very much Not Normal!!!!!#still surprised they'd reveal she's pregnant in a post like this??? idk it feels like a big leak to me but hmmmm

Really trying to get the vibes of the messy messy Paul/Irulan dynamic that lives in my fic and it's hard because we really don't see all too much of their actual relationship dynamic in the books? They're almost never together. All we really know is Irulan is kind of a disaster, Paul pretty much ignores her, she reeeeeally wants him assassinated but also obsessively writes down everything he says. There's some real interesting nuggets in there though, especially combined with how their characters have been shown so far in the movies.

ramblings under the cut:

#dune#paul x irulan#but only kind of#also idk how old irulan is supposed to be in the books? I think around paul & chani's ages but#in my headcanon/fanfic she's actually slightly older#& paul and chani are about 19 by the end of the 2nd movie#making her like 22/23#so a part of her is like???? who is this PUNK . i refuse to be defeated by a TEENAGER who does he think he IS

The whump goblin in me is not immune to Timothee Chalamet's pain acting!! There I fucking said it!!!

#not really dune but#dune#timothée chalamet#between the gom jabbar scene in part 1 and the duel in part 2...i want to Implode#dune messiah had better give me more of paul being Fucking Miserable or i will riot#there's like. this little physicality detail he does that i've noticed where he'll raise his eyebrows#during those moments of pain/emotional distress#and it really gives the vibe of him being like. surprised by how bad it suddenly gets . which really helps to sell it.#there's a moment in the gom jabbar scene that's really obvious. also when he pulls feyd's knife out of his shoulder#you'll know it when you see it#anyway i am not immune!!!!#i simply cannot help but notice!!!

forever team "no this classic and very good movie doesn't *need* to be remade, unless i'm in charge of every aspect of the remake's creation because my toxic trait is believing i could do it well actually"

#movies#also like. as much as i hate the constant reboot/remake/adaptation culture...if someone *really* cares about an original#piece of fiction. and they genuinely want to bring their own vision to something without trying to “outdo” the original#while giving it their own personal spin that makes the audience see the story in a different light that separates it from the original#and is done thoughtfully within the context of the culture they're working within vs that which the og was made within#and perhaps engaging with that in a meta commentary kind of way#....then yeah remakes can be cool actually

ok but like the way that after Paul drinks the water of life, how his hair no longer curtains his face with bangs and is now all brushed to the back and wavy. ok ok but also like the way that his expression now has his teeth slightly bared through a permanent sneer instead of before he drank the water when his expression was always this soft easygoing smile. ok oh and here's the prize winner ok listen please ok like I need to let this out but the way that his body language has been rid of any awkwardness or gentleness or a desire to understand and grow and learn from the people around him and now his movements are calculated and almost animalistic like he's prowling like an untamed predator on an eternal hunt and then and then when Stilgar asks Paul what they should do next, his new sinister demeanor cracks. for a moment. His hair has fallen over his face again from the rough fight he just had, his head dips down and his sneer is gone. He commands with a small, exhausted, empty voice that they go to war, knowing now that there is no going back.
