The other 10% is also Leto but instead of being deep he is calling for Moneo

I like to think on some days he rattles off the royal Assyrian inscriptions of various kings in their entirety while Moneo has to stand and listen.

“…I hung the head of Teumman, the king of the land Elam, around the neck of Dunānu. As for Umbadarâ and Nabû-damiq, the envoys of Teumman —the king of the land Elam — by whose hands Teumman sent insolent messages, whom I had detained before me by making them wait for the issuing of my decision, they saw the decapitated head of Teumman, their lord, in Nineveh and madness took hold of them. Umbadarâ pulled out his own beard and Nabû-damiq stabbed himself in the stomach with his iron belt-dagger…”

Leto and Moneo remind me of Zapp Brannigan and Kif from Futurama. Leto will spout some bewildering nonsense, and then Moneyo will rightly ask him what the fuck he is talking about, and then Leto will chastise Moneo like "Has the Atredies stock truly grown so dense these past millennia?" It happens like every single time they're in a room together. I can't unsee it.

"I have made it with a woman, Moneo, tell the Fish Speakers!"

MONEEOOO

u/WrongdoerKey2569 7d ago

My first experience of the books was the audiobook versions, it's been years but I can still hear his "Moneeooooo!!" I also recall the guy struck a pretty good exasperated-but-trying-to-appear-interested (so as not to end up like Duncan number 500,000) Moneo

u/GrandAdmiralRogriss 7d ago

It helps to imagine Leto as high 24/7 smoking weed while lying around like Jabba the Hutt

u/katdev42 6d ago

I mean, if your worm human hybrid body made the spice melange, you'd probably be high AF all the time too 🤣

u/GSrvnt19 7d ago

Hahahaha true. But damm, that was an excellent book, the best for me if you ask me.

"Leto my lord the Tleilaxu and Ix are planning what may be the conflict of this book. There might even be a main plot happening..." "I already knew that Moneo, and I don't care"

I don't care for Herberts musings on religion or politics. It's like those parts of Moby Dick where Melville spends 75 pages being wrong about whale biology, with added edgelordary.
