    Summary

    The Dreaming stands, but Dream... Dream is gone.

    In the aftermath of the assault on the Dreaming, the Kindly Ones delivered their judgement, their punishment - for spilling blood - and yet, Dream is gone... but not yet returned. Death does not understand why. Endless remain... and yet Dream... is just gone.

    Only because the Kindly Ones did not take his life that day. No. It's not much of a punishment if it was what he craved most.

    No, instead, they trap him in an unending nightmare - living the moment he killed his son over and over again. Until he breaks, until he begs, until the end of time - Dream doesn't know. He just knows there's no escape. There's no help coming. He's alone.

    And every day that he kills his son - just to wash the blood away again and again... He desires for this to end, he would beg for death, he wallows in despair, and he worries he's becoming delirious. The touch of his siblings reside in him, but he accepts they will never come for him. He deserves this. It's his punishment.

    His siblings don't care - he tells himself... unaware they don't even know he's alive, and if they did - none of them, not even Desire, would agree.

    Summary

    "Dream?"

     The name falls off the man’s lips, hushed and breathless, and it stirs an answering feeling in Morpheus’ chest, something tugging deep behind the cage of his ribs, an incomprehensible yearning to be this man’s Dream.

    "I fear you mistake me for another,” he says, at last.

    *

    Or, retired Morpheus tries to navigate human life without the foundation of his memories, and a chance encounter is the catalyst he needs to find himself.

    Summary

    “I am going to ask you for something. You have every right to say ‘no.’ In fact, you probably should, but I need to ask anyway.”

    Six months after Hob Gadling said good-bye to his oldest friend, Morpheus, Death comes to him for help with an impossible task. It’s up to Hob to care for the freshly resurrected--and painfully human--Dream, help him restore his memories…and ultimately let him go all over again. For his part, Dream is just trying to figure out who he is, what he's supposed to do, and why the dark is trying to get him. The only thing that makes any sense is Hob and his kindness, and the certainty that that all Dream wants is to stay by Hob's side.

    Summary

    “You cannot help me,” Dream rasps. “Not this time.”

     

    Hob rocks back, furrowing his brow and defies this.

     

    “Begging your pardon, King of Dreams, but I’ll decide what I can or cannot do, thank you,” Hob chides, lifting his brow in soft warning.

     

    Or the one where Hob steals yarn, fights an old (immortal) lady and accidentally messes everything up fantastically. (but in a good way). [And the author's frantic attempt to make better sense of the horrible mess of Season 2 Vol 2]

    Summary

    Long before the world forgot how to listen to trees, the Oracle of Dodona and the Lord of Dreams walked the path between sleep and prophecy. Where they passed, ravens perched in silence, and the oaks whispered secrets only gods could bear.

    In the dying light of the fourth century, beneath the shadow of Theodosius, they struck a covenant: at each century’s turn, she would offer him a raven. In return, he would plant an oak in the Dreaming—its roots deep, its branches wide, its purpose sacred.

    But Dream is gone.

    And the Oracle waits beneath a sky that no longer speaks, listening for wings that do not come. The century turns. The oak remains unplanted. And the silence is beginning to rot.

    The tragedy has not yet begun.

    But it will.

    (a love three thousand years in the making)

    [DREAM OF THE ENDLESS x OC]

    Summary

    The last he noticed, when he stood back up, was a figure that made his breath get stuck and form a lump in his throat. It made him feel like he was being pulled back into reality, while simultaneously being pushed more into delusion.

    Summary

    She reaches him before his knees hit the ground, wrapping her arms around him to stop his fall. She sets her feet shoulder-width apart to steady herself, bracing herself to receive him. He isn’t expecting it, she realizes, for he stiffens and pushes back as if to recoil…as if already he is trying, again, to push her away.

     

    “Lord Morpheus, forgive me,” Lucienne whispers into his ear. “I will not watch you fall to pieces before my eyes. Not if I can help it.” She does not move, holding her ground.

     

    Or: the one where Lucienne gives him a much-needed hug.

    Summary

    "Je suis fatigué."

    En la regardant dans les yeux, sa sœur, Mort des Infinis, savait à quel point c'était tristement vrai. Rêve, son petit frère, n'était pas juste fatigué, il était épuisé. Rongé par une fatigue qui lui colle à la peau.

    Les Infinis n'ont pas de corps à proprement parler, ils ne subissent pas l'épreuve du Temps. Et pourtant à cet instant, elle aurait juré qu'il n'a jamais fait aussi vieux. Usé par le Temps, la Nuit et le Destin. Les milliers d'étoiles autrefois présentes dans ses yeux se sont muet en un ciel vide, dénué de lumière et de chaleur.

    OU

    Une courte scène de réconfort entre Mort et Rêve.

    Summary

    Lord Morpheus is gone. He’s among the stars and lost in time. Forever in our memories, living in dreams and stories, in myths and beliefs.

    Morpheus opens his eyes. Or so does he believe since his body is no more. He looks in front of him and everything is blank, like a void.
    __________________________________________________

    -Father, I’ve been waiting for you, says Orpheus, a shy smile on his face.

    -Is it you ? whispers Morpheus, he doesn't have the energy to raise his voice.

    Orpheus seats on the ground or what looks like the ground. For a moment he doesn't move or breathe, he just waits for his father to join him. Which he does after a long minute.

    OR

    A discussion between a father and a son. Lost in time and space they both heal a little.

    Summary

    In a strange coffee shop beyond time, Morpheus meets Paige, a lost and lonely Dreamer troubled by her forgotten past. Together, they embark on a heartfelt journey of friendship, healing, and self-discovery.

    Contains spoilers for the Sandman series finale ("A Tale of Graceful Ends") and the show in general. Which absolutely wrecked me emotionally. So. You know. I had to write a nice little epilogue for it.

    Summary

    Do not say I do not do anything for you.
    - Father
    “Well, that was cryptic,” Desire muttered, staring down at the words. “What is that even supposed to mean-”
    Then they felt it: a familiar taste of desire that echoed out from a certain helm.

    AKA Desire is not handing the change from Morpheus to Daniel in Dream well, gets on their father’s last nerve, and winds up about a century or so in the past where their dear older brother is alive (though imprisoned). Chaos ensues.

    Chapter 2 is Dream's perspective
