Clumsy Flying

Warnings: small injuries, let me know if I missed any :)

Pairings: Morpheus x reader platonic, Matthew the raven x reader platonic

Request: OMG I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE WRITING FOR SANDMAN! Could you do a platonic dream x teen!reader where she can turn into a raven (like a maleficent/diaval situation) but she's always flying into windows/narrowly misses corners in the library and one day dream tends to her and tells her to be more careful and she teases him for going soft? I'm so excited I love your writing so much!

Summary: One thing leads to another after Matthew challenges you to a race

A/N: Quickly written- enjoy :)

Please don’t plagiarize my work, you may reblog if you like but I’m asking that you don’t steal my hard work

It wasn’t your fault, it really wasn’t.

Matthew was the one that challenged you to that race. And you both knew that you weren’t the most coordinated creature in the dreaming, but you assumed he just wanted to use that to his favor.

So if anything, you flying straight into a wall and hitting your head dead on was his fault, so he should be the one Morpheus was lecturing, not you.

He clicked his tongue once again as he placed the ice back on your dark, black and blue bruise that sat like a medal on your head, “You really must be more careful, Y/n.”

You let out a pained chuckle, wincing slightly at the sudden pressure, “Well I won, didn’t I?”

It was obvious that he was trying to hold back a smile by then, “That’s besides the point, and you know it.”

A grin made its way onto your face despite anything, “I sure showed him though, didn’t I?”

The stern look slipped from his face as he let out a rare small chuckle, “Indeed you did.” He hummed.

You had been his first creation that was able to change between a raven and a human form, and there was possibly a reason that you were the only one. You annoyed the ruler of the dreaming to no end, though he would never admit out loud how fond he actually was of you.

Despite that fact, he felt that he could barely handle one of you, even more and it would be even more chaotic and he had the feeling it would only lead to more headaches for him.

And there was the fact that because you could both fly and walk, you weren’t very graceful, and Morpheus could only assume it would be the same if he were to create anymore.

The grin on your face widened at his slight show of amusement, “Careful there, Dream,” You teased, “Or I might think that you’re going soft.”

He scoffed playfully, “Me? Never.”

His face softened at the sound of your laughter, and he gently removed the ice from your forehead once more.

“There,” He announced, stepping back from you, “It should be back to healing rather quickly.”

Right on cue, Matthew poked his head around the door, looking hesitantly into the room that you and Dream were in, “Hey, kid,” He called slowly, “How are you feeling?”

Morpheus cut a glare at him, speaking before you could even open your mouth, “And you! How many times must I stress the fact that she cannot control her own flying, let alone enough to be involved in such childish things as racing with you.”

“Now, boss,” The raven spoke nervously, “We were just tryin’ to have some fun.” He began to ramble quickly, “And racing is lots of fun! Have you ever done it? You should, you know. Actually, I challenge you to a race.”

His beady little eyes widened, too late realizing what he had said.

The endless beings' eyes narrowed dangerously, “Do you now, Matthew?”

Realizing it was too late to go back as he nodded his head hesitantly, “Yeah, yeah, I do.” He spoke more confidently.

You clapped your hands together in joy, jumping up and down in your spot, “Oh, this is going to be so much fun! I’ll be the judge!”

That was how Morpheus and Matthew ended up side by side in the throne room, eyes trained on you all the way near the stairs, hands cupped over your mouth as you got ready.

“You shouldn’t have challenged me,” Morpheus spoke up cooly, sparking fear in his opponents chest of how confident he was.

“Ready! Set! Go!” You shouted as loud as you could.

And poor Matthew didn’t even stand a chance.

Hi! Omg so glad you like Sandman, I honestly really hope you'll write some platonic fics for him (no pressure ofc, this isn't a prompt) cause I've been on ao3 and tumblr since it came out and there is no platonic dream x reader tag so far, and I can't help but think you're the perfect person to write it. I finished the show a few days ago and I absolutely loved it since I have the audiobook and it's so accurate. Anyway, what are your thoughts on it so far?

All the best, anon :)

You’ll definitely see some platonic Dream fics from me, I can promise you that. I’m only halfway through the series at the moment but I am in absolute love with it all! The characters, the cinematography, & the storyline are amazing. And Matthew the Raven. We can’t forget about Matthew.

I have a vague idea on an OC/reader I could conjure… it’s unsurprisingly difficult to do so with this show which I am not used to haha.

#i also went searching for platonic sandman fics but alas #no luck :(#ask

The Nature of Things

Warnings: none (I think), let me know if I missed any :)

Pairings: Matthew the raven x reader platonic

Request: Matthew the raven x child reader. Imagine an 11 or 12 year old just came across the raven

Request by: @popfishjr

Summary: Matthew decides to visit the waking world, meeting an unlikely friend along the way

A/N: Sorry this is so short and really bad writing

Please don’t plagiarize my work, you may reblog if you like but I’m asking that you don’t steal my hard work

Matthew flew, hundreds of feet above the waking world, taking it all in.

Since he had become a raven, he found that flying had quickly become his favorite pastime. And as much as he loved to do it in the dreaming, where there was always a nice breeze that flowed across his feathers in just the right way, he missed his home, where he grew up.

Sure, the waking world wasn’t nearly as clean, or as beautiful as where he now resided in, but it was a place that was so familiar that it brought him momentary peace.

He hadn’t meant to begin in the direction of the place that he had once lived, his wings sort of just brought him there without allowing him to think much of it.

Eventually, he was on the tree that was right in front of the house he had, once upon a time, owned and lived in for years.

He supposed that he should have expected a new family to have moved in, but there was still a bit of surprise that hit him as he looked through the windows, watching a family move about their daily lives.

One member in particular caught his attention, a young girl, about eleven years old, sitting at a seat near an open window with her head in her hand, staring out.

Matthew cocked his head to the side in curiosity before slowly lifting off the branch and flying over until he was in the air a couple feet in front of you.

Instead of stumbling back and screaming at the close proximity of the bird like he had expected you to, you just blinked up at him, not saying anything.

The two of you stayed in silence for a few moments, staring at each other without really knowing what to do.

“You’re a pretty little thing.” You eventually spoke up softly, switching to leaning your head into your other hand.

Matthew didn’t reply, not knowing how you would exactly react to a talking bird, especially at your age. It was so hit or miss.

“I like animals,” You continued, “And nature. It’s all so beautiful.”

“I like nature too.” He hadn’t meant to speak up, but as soon as he did, his beady little eyes widened.

Your head came out of your hand immediately and you sat straight up, but you didn’t run. Or scream. You just sat there, once again allowing silence to fill the void and blinked at each other.

“You… talk.” You finally spoke up slowly, eyeing the small bird up and down.

He sighed, preparing for the worse, “Yeah… yeah, I do.”

A grin broke out onto your face and you excitedly began speaking, “That is so cool! Oh my gosh, how long have you been able to do that? How do you do that?”

Matthew was taken aback. You, a human child, were not afraid of the bird that could talk as if he were still human.

“My-my name is Matthew.” He stuttered out, not even answering any of your questions with that statement.

“Awesome,” You looked up at him in awe.

“Y/n!” A voice from deeper inside the house called, “Dinners ready!”

A small frown pulled at your lips as you jumped up from your chair, “I have to go, but… will I see you again?”

He was silent for a moment, thinking of how to answer, but then he realized that he really wouldn’t mind coming back to the waking world and visiting his old home again, visiting you again.

He nodded his head, “Yeah, you will.”

You smiled and called out, “Bye, Matthew!” Before turning on your heel and scurrying out of the room.

Matthew stayed there for a moment, hovering in midair, before smiling and turning away, going to return back to the dreaming for the time being.

The next time he saw you, he figured he would tell you about it there. He felt like you would appreciate how beautiful the place sounded, and it would be nice to have a friend in the waking world again.
