Summary:

An acrobat's career usually ends in their early twenties...

Dick Grayson is in his late twenties.

I love how he like never uses his own throne to intimidate and whatever, instead chooses to sit on the stairs. And then when he meets idiot men he will find literally any chair and make it a throne

You know you're in trouble when he menacingly stands up from a fancy chair in your house.

I love the headcanon that since escaping the fishbowl, Dream has an aversion to being naked. That he much prefers all the billowy cloaks and layers of clothes to cover him neck to toe. The Realm of Comfortable Clothing does not have a monarch, and so he claims the title for himself.

Then Death teaches him the human trick of taking clothes or blankets straight out of the dryer, when they’re in the optimal state of warm and cozy, and Dream about loses his mind over it. And if Lucienne later finds him on his throne, having wrapped himself up in a plush blanket burrito, well, she refrains from commenting on it.

I need to be fed, everyone do this or I will come to your house and make holes in all your spoons

Cause we are all thirsty for content, I thought I would kick this fandom off with a week of prompts! September 25th is International Dream Day, so lets revolve it around then! :)

Sept. 19, Day 1: Coffee Shop AU//Nightmare//Music

Sept. 20, Day 2: Domesticity//Sexual Tension//Feral!Dream

Sept. 21, Day 3: Sharing a Bed//Rescue AU//Siblings

Sept. 22, Day 4: Hurt/Comfort//Crossover//Memories

Sept. 23, Day 5: First Time//Soulmate AU//Peace

Sept. 24, Day 6: Skin Hunger//Meet the Fam//Trauma Recovery

Sept. 25, Day 7: Free Day

You can do one of the prompts, or merge all three together, if you want. Not picky because we all just want more content to consume. Any ship goes, and it doesn't even have to be shippy! Fanfiction and Fanart, along with any other mediums like moodboards, poetry, and other.

Please remember to not share your fanfiction to Neil Gaiman

Tags will be: SandmanWeek2022, SandWeek2022, Sandtember2022. Make sure to add those to your work :)

I’ve never seen anything in the tag about an issue with hobb/dream. I don’t know where you’re getting that. I know folks are obsessed with self inserts, but still. Where is it?

this is one I saw right before making the post

Dear Neil.

There's a tragedy happening in Iran, we're being shot in the streets, my brothers and sisters are dying, my government is committing war crimes and as a fellow human being I'm desperately asking for your help to raise awareness.

Mahsa Amini was a 22-year-old woman who was brutally murdered by the Islamic Republic of Iran's so-called "morality police." Her crime? Showing hair in public and "dressing inappropriately." Any human being with a pair of working eyes who has seen pictures of her prior to her murder can see that not only was her dress not inappropriate, but also that she (and a lot of women in Iran) had covered herself more than any other woman in any other part of world is obligated to.This sparked fury among the people of Iran and a wave of nation-wide protests broke out as the result. But don't get it wrong. This was only the straw that broke the camel's back and was the result of 43 years of unmitigated oppression and cruelty that the people of Iran have been subjected to. Every Iranian is branded a Muslim from birth and they're not given a choice. You cannot identify as an atheist and other religious minorities are treated horribly with a lot of their rights stripped from them. There's been a long history of cruelty against Bahai people in Iran, for example. We're not forced to be muslims in name only. We're also forced to act like muslims and learn all the muslim teachings, hijab being one of the many ideals shoved down our throat. And of course, converting from Islam to other religions or no religion is punishable by death. This savagery is not part of our culture or law; it is not part of any humanitarian law to kill women for showing hair and exercising their right to bodily autonomy for that matter.Up until now, the government forces have been violent and ruthless in their attempts to stump out our protests. They've shot people from a 63 year old woman to a 10 year old girl, killing them all without mercy. The Internet has been cut out in several places and reportedly, they've brought out tanks and used military-grade bullets in the city of Sanandaj, where the Internet has been shut down for two days as of September 21. Meanwhile, president Ibrahim Raisi is giving a lecture in the UN, babbling about saving the people of Palestine and justice in the world while his own forces are brutally murdering ordinary people and protesters in Iran.At this point, we're in danger of being cut off from the world when the whole internet finally shuts down. This is not a speculation. The same thing happened in the nation-wide protests of 2019 and the government proceeded to kill all the protesters in absolute radio silence. A lot of protesters were found with cement blocks tied to their ankles and thrown in the river after the successfully stumped the protests out. We don't want the same thing to happen to our children and people again. If you hear no more news from Iran, things haven't settled down. We are being silently killed off and executed.You might think you don't have anything to do with this, but think again about why you all involved yourselves in the war between Ukraine and Russia. This is not any different. Our people have waged a war against their government and none of them are people who willingly chose violence. They are normal people who want nothing more than a normal life, which is what the Islamic regime has taken from them. If you have an ounce of humanity and empathy within yourself, you'll spread the word around and not let this injustice go unanswered and unpunished.There's nothing more to be said.

As an Iranian woman who always read your books and who always raised up her voice, I need help now. We can Breathe anymore! I fought for poc, I raised my voice for ukraine. Now I need yours. I'm a young author. I can have a future... a free one! but my government took it from me. Please be my voice ... our voice!!

I'm happy to let people know, yes. And it's heartbreaking.

Here's the BBC on what's happening:
