the sandman enters… tried a new silly cool style including a mishmash of my tried-and-true digital inking style with a heaving helping of the selection tool and spray paint brushes on procreate. dream ily I’m your number one fan
This International Women's Day, we remember Wanda. Wanda was a winner, an incredibly strong but also vulnerable and open character. She was the most human element of A Game of You, in my opinion.
I would even go as far as to say that in that story, she is the polar opposite of Dream. Not only she is capable of change, she sought it out. She changed so much, that the world was not ready for her.
I can't wait to see her on The Sandman TV series.

Oh overture is making me insane actually. Dream who is still young and asks his siblings for help and they never come. No wonder he never asked for their help again, not when they left him in a dungeon listening to his creations’ screams, not when desire ‘helped’ by sending alianora when he explicitly told them he didn’t want a lover. Young dream who has never killed before being forced to murder an innocent. Dream who was not made to kill innocents having to kill a universe and death turning it into some kind of messed up lesson. Dream still sparing a single star (and of course that comes back to haunt him). Dream being kind to a child because of course he is. Dream offering to wipe hope’s memories of the murder of her father and accepting her choice not to. Dream taking her with him and making sure she eats and sleeps taking breaks even though he has no need for rest. Dream giving her good dreams. Dream and Hope holding hands because dreams and hope go hand in hand. Dream being afraid. Dream who could not even save a child (an oh oh that one hurt because of course he couldn’t save a child not when ha couldn’t save his own son). Dream torn apart in a black whole only to be left there by his mother. Dream still wanting his parents to be proud of him for saving the universe. Dream exhausted beyond belief wanting to go home only to be captured and held captive in a glass cage for decades. His sibling already planning his death not knowing dream will die anyway by his own design. I’m so so normal about overture.
Daughter of Evil | Sandman Imagine
Summary: The Dream Lord has never seen eye to eye with Trigon’s daughter but one night the tension is too much to bare.
Pairing: Morpheus x Raven! Reader
Author’s note: I just wanted an excuse to use this GIF okay? And yes this has a certain degree of smut
Agilieth was a demon you had to put on check, as the daughter of Trigon and Arabella you were this dark entity that most of the times would get misunderstood.
Yes, your core was what most people would consider evil or deranged but in truth you had risen above your nature, you weren’t here to cause pain and destruction, you were here to protect the world from all the evils you knew.
You had the demon under your control, ready to send him away to Hell and this time make sure he could not resurface.
“Wait Y/N!” You groaned at hearing the voice of the Dream Lord, it was amazing to you how he always showed at the worst times.
“Morpheus, get out of here” you instructed him.
“Agilieth has information I require” he tried to reason with you.
“And you are interfering in my affairs” you groaned, the back and forth with the King of Dreams making you lose your focus and giving Agilieth a window of opportunity to attack you, making you fly out to the other side of the room.
The demon was close to escaping, but as you grew irritated you focused all your power to fulfill your task.
“Azarath Metrion Zinthos!” You exclaimed, your hands turning black as you casted the demon away.
As the mattered was handled you marched to Lord Morpheus grabbing him by the collar, but he didn’t seem happy with you either.
“You know what could’ve happened if Agilieth was on the loose?” You hissed in his face.
“You have no idea what you just did. That demon knew something about my helm” he groaned, you smirked sarcastically.
“Well guess what Lord Morpheus? Your interest mean shit to me” you were breathing heavily in each other’s faces, your hearts were beating loudly and you were inches away from one another, it was impossible for Morpheus not to divert to your lips
Maybe it was impulse or frustration or both things at once, but he kissed you passionately, your body immediately went with the flow of him, matching his heated energy.
When you broke apart Morpheus’ looked perplexed as if he couldn’t grab his head around what just happened.
“I do not-“
“Shut the fuck up” you said, tired of the situation, you didn’t want to think, you just wanted to act and regret later.
This time you were the one who had kissed him but this time around you didn’t put any resistance, both of you committing to the heat and impulse of the moment.
It was an odd but addicting sensation to feel Morpheus’ hands on every inch of your body, ripping your clothes, marking your skin.
As Morpheus had his head buried between your legs you were moaning, surrendering to your ecstasy, looking up there was a cross above your head, it was ironic how you were doing this in a chapel, but committing a deadly sin had never felt so right to you.
Even as you came and the Dream Lord feasted on the taste of you like you were the very elixir of life, you trembled.
You would be lying if you said you hadn’t imagined what Morpheus would be like as lover and he did exceed your expectations and wildest dreams.
Normally, you would like to be in control in all aspects of your life, but you couldn’t denied it was thrilling to give the power away and be handled with such expertise and confidence.
Morpheus grabbed you by the ankles, placing you perfectly under him, he lined himself to your entrance and kissed you as he sunk deep inside you, making you tense and cry out of pleasure as you grabbed your arms around his neck and you started meeting his thrust with fervor.
The king of Dreams was in Cloud Nine right now, you felt perfect around him and your sounds of pleasure got him to a wild point, it was as if he just needed more and more.
Cumming inside you was the most sinful yet thrilling act, even the feeling of his seed running down your leg had brought upon you a sense of content almost.
Morpheus followed your every move intently, admiring how you collected your clothes and with all the patience in the world you got dressed.
He couldn’t know for sure, but he could almost swear you were doing this on purpose to lure him and it was working like a damn charm.
The Endless grabbed his arms around your waist softly, kissing your shoulder making you turn to face his blue eyes.
“Will I see you again?” He asked you confused as to where did this leave you in terms of your complex relationship.
“Well if you are eager to see me, you know where to find me” you whispered in his ear and then kissed his lips, he watched as you stood up simply before looking at him.
“It has been a pleasure, Lord Morpheus. And believe me, I don’t say that often” that was the last thing you said before going back to your dimension.

Please be nice... it's my first try...
I’m not sure anyone has mentioned this yet, but I really like the imagery of the end credits every episode. It reminds me of the paintings each issue had as its cover. The ones made by Dave McKean, I believe.
sleep and delirium, who were once dream and delight
Delirium dressed up as Dream.
Delirium is making moonflies so that fireflies have a friend to glow with at night, so of course she cuts them out of Dream’s long coat.
Doze and Delusion
It’s your classic role swap, interpret this however you want (I put no coherent thought behind this).
Delusion is just Tom being himself with red eyeshadow on
Anyways, they paint each others nails.
Me when I first saw this: “Did they just deadname Delirium?” 😶
Kai’ckul with a fro.
Ernest Kingsley Junior is ethereal looking, it’s not even funny (listen, Tom looked other-worldly in the snow globe, Ernest looks other-worldly in general (affectionatly))

“Open up my eager eyes, cause I’m Mr. Brightside”
Sandflower x Mr. Brightside
This song just screams Lyta Hall and Morpheus. The melancholic tone, some of the lyrics fit Lyta, some to Morpheus.
I understand Morpheus and his absolute need to follow his own rules and being neutral about Lyta (having nothing against her) but I just feel so bad for Lyta. Stuck in her husband’s fantasy then forcefully taken out of it, having your husband ripped away from you and then told “I’ll take your baby one day, bye”is so much. No wonder Lyta is the way that she is.

I’ve never read a character more exhausting than Night from Overture.
I can deal with Time and his “I brought you into this world” trump card that he has as a mentality, but Night is just- *audible uncomfortable sigh*
I don’t know how Dream did it, but if I went to my mother and she didn’t even know about one of her daughters death, didn’t know that her son left and then compared me to my younger sibling all while sitting at a table with dick shaped foods on it, I’d probably crack.
Dream: the universe is literally exploding, please help me.
Night: I really don’t care and I don’t even want you here. How come you never visit me, hon? You are my favorite child after all.
Facing the reality
Delusion talking to his son one final time
death looking at dream: 👀
dream blushing like a madman: well i can’t not fuck him
