...in haste, brought on by a busy day.

Dune:

Filigree Window takes place during the "Children of Dune" era, a Jessica pov, and the Jessica and Irulan interaction especially I found so very well done and poignant.

Bwee, recs! *g* Dammit, every time you say something about Ace, I feel like a deer in the headlights because she's so far away, she's almost last on the list (that's the movie) I've got so much to get to before I can start with her...clearly, the person who said you can never have too much of a good thing was a filthy, filthy liar. :P

Oh, you know that in the far, far days when you'll have watched all the available stuff, you'll revise your opinion on that.*g* I admire your disciplinary approach anyway, as I am more like the Doctor, wildly gallivanting between different periods in my watching and rewatching.*g*

Thank you for the Dune rec. I love Irulan, madly, and it's wonderful to see people writing her as the teacher, scholar and mother with strength ---not a failed Bene Gesserit.

When reading the first three books, I was very disappointed of how little Herbert made of Irulan, because after reading Dune I had been very curious about her (with all the introduction quotes coming from her books, and her able to provide another pov to the saga). So when the tv version came along and basically used the set up and came up with a layered, interesting and well-played character, I was jubilant, and only regretted she didn't get more scenes. I'm always on the lookout for fanfic featuring her!
