It's Tuesday, and old Frank the axlotl maintenance guy has to wash out Tank #33742457, they were growing a batch of spice but something went wrong and samples came out anise flavored instead of cinnamon. He's walking down the aisle of twenty-foot tall flesh spheres, pulling a pressure washer and carrying a bucket full of sponges, spray bottles full of chemicals, and a squeegee. Just another day on the job. He reaches his assigned tank, and wonders again why they made the entrance so small and surrounded by hair. But he gloves up anyways, he knows the trick to get in through that small entrance and by break time he'll have that tank spic-'n-span.

On his way out he reaches up and rubs the little button over the door until the tank starts quivering. He doesn't know the real reason he was taught to do that, but he figures it's just for good luck. He gathers his tools, lights a spice cigarette, and heads off to find a pot of coffee and a quiet place to take his lunch break.

The glossary at the back of Dune mentions ships designed to Constructicon themselves together and attack strongpoints by falling on them. I think Paul mentions them once, in passing. It never comes up again.

My dad avoided the "what are axlotl tanks" questions over the years with the deftness of a mentat. I read the dune series for the first time around the release of Emperor: Battle For Dune and in fact that game is likely why i finally read the series.

I basically crashed open his door while reading heretics screaming at him like this horrifying thing was his fault lol

My guess is picking an obscure French-American actor in his mid-20s who looks the part and is known for roles in good art films is better than dressing up John Travolta.
