God. Sandman (Dreamling) fic got me trying to learn Middle English

looking up the local university library to see if they let visitors who can't check out books just go in and read things

#dreamling #the sandman #don't ask me why the hyperfixation is settling in several years late #I'm rereading all the comics too #dug up my external hard drive from 2008 just to get the comic files off it

I've been watching Tidying Up With Marie Kondo and one episode centers on this young gay couple that describe their first date as : "We met in a bar on a Friday night, kissed after the first drink, then he came over to my place, and didn't leave until Monday morning because we kept cancelling the plans we had for the weekend to spend it together instead, making it a 62-hours date." And honestly ? That sounds exactly like how the aftermath of Dream "I am so intense when in love that it has scared off most of my previous relationships" of the Endless and Hob "I've been flirting with you for 633 freaking years but thanks for finally noticing" Gadling's New Inn date must have gone

#the sandman #netflix the sandman #dreamling #or has my brain simply been rewired to interpret anything I ever lay eyes on through the lens of my latest hyperfixation ?#who can say ? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

dream would probably say “thank you” after giving hob a blowjob and hob would definitely groan in his hands and go, “I am not saying ‘you’re welcome’ to that”

#actually I've already read few fics where dream says thank u after sexy time #it's so funny cause poor hob he doesn't know what to say to that #is the sandman my new hyperfixation? yes.#unfortunately I'm weak for centurial yearning trope #the sandman #dreamling #morpheus #hob gadling

Ok, I do not make tumblr posts, but I have this crossover stuck in my brain (and I am having a hyperfixation on the Shadow and Bones rn), so...

Shadow and Bones (TV) x Sandman (TV) crossover, Hob canonically was involved in the slave trade.

Hob Gadling, the new owner of New Inn (a small Inn on the edge of Barel) and your local saint (yes, he is known as Sankta Robert, and he hates this) and fellow Ketterdam immortal in his six hundreds, is trying to live his life in the Ketterdam right after his Stranger missed their meeting.

He was away for a few years after planned meeting (you know, all this “die and return as your nephew from Novyi Zem” things) and just returned to the city when Fold was destroyed. He doesn't want to interact with any of Barel’s gangs, because it is hard to hide your immortality when someone shoots you in the middle of the street (it happened before. Twice, actually).

He still tries to know all the local rumours, so he knows about Crows, and now his Inn is apparently the Dregs’ territory.

Meanwhile, Kaz is planning how to destroy Jan Van Eck and heard a rumour about the devil in the basement.

So, whatever it is, Jan Van Eck is very interested in it and spends a huge amount of money every month to cover the costs of Burgess. And the guards of the basement are so well-payed that no one can buy them. Wylan barely knows anything about it, he only knows that once his father said him that Burgess promised his father to guarantee that his next child will not be an embarrassment (in exchange for the favour that is taking away the Dream bc Alex wants to get rid of the ball).

(Roderic Burgess was not a grisha himself, but Randall Burgess was a grisha and Burgess was already making a lot of plans for how he will monetize his grisha abilities and how he will use Randall in his barely legal plans before he died in the Fold and Roderick was stuck with useless otkazat'sya second son)

Crows think that maybe this is imprisoned healer because older Burgess was too old to be alive.

(Alex considered himself “forced through circumstances” after his father died bc he was too afraid of both Dream and Van Eck telling everybody that is in the basement)

So Crows start some shenanigans to break into the basement, and Burgess or Van Eck heard about it and hires some killers to take them down. One of the killers? Corinthian.

Corinthian caught one of the Crows (Nina who cannot take him down because he was made from the dreamstuff?) in the side street, but Hob is passing by. And he doesn't want some kid to be killed on his watch.

Hob attacked Corinthian and killed him (obviously temporally) but got stabbed in the process. In his heart. With a knife. So Nina tried to save him, but once she took out the knife, Hob comes to life.

And this makes Hob involved in all the things that he tried to avoid because he didn't want to simulate his death too soon (and these children already saw that he is immortal), and Crows offered him to “forget” about his secret. Price? Help to steal whatever it is in the basement.

After this someone (Inej who will have very mixed feelings about Hob being a saint? like they already met some saints but no one was a slave trader in the past) understood who Hob is.

All this Sankta Robert stuff that Hob hates. He is not only a saint because he just died and was resurrected with too many witnesses, but he also did this during the period when he tried to destroy his own slavery business after his Stranger’s advice. So years after he was known as a patron of the slaves and the ones who were illegally detained.

The eternal reminder of his own mistakes. He is not a saint, ok? Just an immortal man who made a huge mistake and tried to do something right when he understood what a crime he did.

(And in that life, he was going with his real name for some time, so he cannot use Robert Gadling anymore because everyone knows his name as the name of the saint)

Idk what will be next but it all ended up as Hob saved Dream from the fishball and they got together trope, yes. Same story but with some extra Crows flavour.

(And after the rescue of the Dream he is very amused with the fact that mortals call Hob Sankta Robert. Like previously, he never paid attention to the life of Hob between their meetings, only to the Hob’s stories on the meetings, and Hob did not mention this so he didn’t know).

Hob also somehow "adopt" the Crows because they are just a bunch of youngsters for him. Like they're in their twenties, they are totally kids for Hob. Have they already saved the world? Not changing his opinion, they are kids! Kaz is trying to resist this but unsuccessfully (he is not so unhappy with this as he shows).

i think it’s kind of telling that i’m trying to get back into drawing after doing little to none of it for YEARS and the easiest thing i could think to do was. a handsome man i’m currently lightly hyperfixated on.

this is a WIP technically but i thought he looks kinda nice, all things considered! i’ve got big sandman brain rot rn, if you couldn’t tell

#the sandman #hob gadling #art #i’m trying to motivate myself to practice so like. if anyone has art suggestions i’ll def take em! sandman related or otherwise #like give me dreamling interactions to try to draw or smth i’d love that #(for the record i’m ‘lightly’ hyperfixated on hob bc dream is my true blorbo)#(i am rotating him on the hot dog cooker in my brain constantly)

hi just thought i'd share how your art has caused every single hyperfixation i've had these past months <3

found you through your gorgeous go fanart, and saw the ofmd ones so i was like ok im gonna check it out.... obsessed

saw your lokius fanart, same thing, saw your captain fanart, its time to watch bbc ghosts and fall in love with it, saw your dreamling fanart, ok this is a bit different i have already seen the sandman but lets rewatch that episode just for fun....obsessed

so thank u <333 not to mention the inspiration i get to draw more 🥺

Aww, this makes me incredibly happy to hear!! 😭 It's honestly one of the reasons why I enjoy creating fanart so much. The fact that I get to share my love for something with more people and we end up enjoying it together! 🙏

You're very welcome, anon! I'm glad I managed to be the cause for your hyperfixations, haha

#anon #ask

So I was re-reading my Amnesiac!Nicky/Joe from the Old Guard fic, Lights Out, as I try to polish off the last chapter while the inspiration is still with me (like...4 years late, I am so sorry orz) and for the record I listened to so many historical lectures to write this fic like, dear lord, basically took online lecture courses on Middle Eastern history, which is was almost entirely new to me, on Islam, on the Crusades, just... so many lectures on the Crusades. It basically sparked an actual interest in me in the Medieval Era ( was an ancients-only girly before that and really didn't see the appeal), because actually if Nicky was from Genoa in 100 CE it would have been easier to write him than 1100 CE because the mindsets are just so foreign in that time.

So anyway, since then I've continued listening to lectures, definitely picked up a bunch while writing Dreamling stuff because hey, I'm a slut for immortals and I always use the hyperfixation to delve into new historical eras. And sure, in the years since with all the new lectures I've listened to, going back to re-read Lights Out has revealed some things I would have done a bit differently, some ways I might have better portrayed a Medieval mindset in Nicky than what I did, but for the most part, they were gratifyingly minor!

Until I listened to a lecture on Catholic history and realized the single biggest historical error in the entire fucking fic.

See, I was raised Catholic, got out literally as soon as possible, but I have an enduring interest in the Catholic Church and its history as an institution. So while writing Lights Out, brushing up on Catholic Church history besides the Crusades didn't really feel like a priority. I already knew a fair amount and from personal experience felt I could at least fake the perspective of a devout Catholic.

But there was one thing, one fucking thing I got entirely wrong and only learned it in the last week, after spending literal decades of my life studying European history.

I said that Nicky went to seminary school, that he fully became a priest and then was defrocked in order to go back to Genoa to be his father's heir after his elder brothers died of a fever. I was trying to reconcile the historically impossible idea floated in some Old Guard behind the scenes stuff that Nicky could be both a priest and a Crusader, because priests were actually forbidden from fighting in the Crusades.

But here's the thing: there were no seminary schools for priests until the 1500s.

Like, it was actually kind of a big deal and credited with one of the reasons that Protestants broke away was that there were so many shitty priests because no one was actually forced to even learn all that much about the Bible or the faith at all!

This blew my mind. I thought that priests got some sort of training and had some sort of school system going all the way back to early church but apparently I was completely wrong.

Probably the more accurate thing would be to say Nicky was in a monastery and got training there and was forced to leave.

But the whole idea I had around him having actually completed some sort of training before being yanked back to secular life? Completely anachronistic for another 500 years argghhh....
