    Summary

    "I see the way you look at him, you know," Ana said, picking her way carefully across the river. "Not that I mind, so much," she continued, hopping off the last rock and onto the riverbank. "And I certainly understand. Will does have a… certain charm about him."

    Summary

    "No," says Jessica. "No, I was only swimming."

    "This entire time?" The duke presses the back of his hand to her forehead. He is checking her temperature—checking for fever.

    Swallowing, Jessica raises her arm and points to her island, the size of a thumbnail in the distance. Out of the corner of her eye she sees the duke's men pause and follow her gesture.

    "Goddamn," says Gurney Halleck.

    Duke Leto laughs in disbelief, though there is no humor in his voice, only incredulity. "There—you swam all the way there? God! Why? You could have—there was no one here to—"

    Jessica stares at the duke for long moment. She considers the worry that lines his face, how absolutely frazzled he appears. She decides to tell him the truth.

    "Because I could," she says, earnestly. "Because I wanted to, more than anything." She does not say: I have not wanted before Caladan. I was not taught to want.

    Pre-Canon. Jessica loves the planet Caladan. She might also love its duke.

    Summary

    Jessica has found that the thought processes of a child are much more difficult to parse than those of an adult. The leaps in logic, the enduring belief in fantasies, the misapprehension of subjects far beyond their years. She can see now that Paul is greatly aggrieved and greatly determined. She does not know what has caused this upset. She studies his traveling supplies and says, "I see. Is that why you've packed us honey cake?"

    "Yes!" Her son beams. "There's one slice for me and one slice for you! I think, if we eat slowly, we shall be able to make it last for days."

    "They are very generous slices," concedes Jessica. "Have you informed your father of our plans?"

    At this mention of his father, Paul's face darkens into a ferocious little scowl. "But it is because of him that we are leaving!"

    ---

    Pre-Canon, Jessica POV. Paul learns that his father may one day marry someone other than Jessica and is not pleased.
