Tom Sturridge on playing Morpheus in The Sandman [x]

Tumblr has discovered The Sandman...
Tumblr has discovered Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman.   Here are some of the examples of proof of that discovery.  The good and the not-so-good.
1.   The Corinthian (A nightmare entity) has been referred to as a “Blorbo.”  Based on my understanding of the meaning of the word I am pretty certain The Corinthian probably should not be your Blorbo.  But then again you might be into that sort of thing.  I’ve seen some strange things in the Horror movie slasher fandoms.  Just know that if he was real it would probably not be safe to think of him as your Blorbo.
Tumblr media
2.  The Corinthian has been called Cori and Cory respectively.   And so it begins...
Tumblr media
3.  Morpheus has been referred to as a poor little “Meow Meow” and not while in his cat form.  And yes, I know he fits the criteria for the term.  It’s just this was the first time I’ve seen him called it without it being literally related to his cat form.   You have truly made it in the world of Tumblr when they start calling your character a Blorbo or Poor LIttle Meow Meow.  Whatever happened to Woobie?   I would think Morpheus would fit under “Woobie.”   
Tumblr media
4.   I have seen Tom Sturridge (Morpheus’s Netflix actor) referred to as a DILF.  (Dad I’d like to ...have fun with).   As the term is usually reserved for older men, and I, myself, am forty, and Tom Sturridge is a few years younger than I am, this term usage came as a surprise to me. It turns out some fans are using the term quite literally as Tom Sturridge literally is a father.  I was used to the term being used specifically in regard to age.
Tumblr media
5. Morpheus has been compared to a Disney Princess.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
6.   A scene from the source material has been taken out of context to make the character look more like an asshole than he actually is even though there are plenty of real asshole moments as the character is on a long redemption arc.
The scene in question is when Matthew the Raven says “Penny for your thoughts.” And Morpheus responds with “You have no pennies, Matthew.”  Later Morpheus offers Matthew a literal penny in exchange for him voicing his thoughts.  Morpheus being too literal is what is happening here. Context matters.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
7.  There are people trying to bluff having read The Sandman without having actually read The Sandman to try to gain clout in the fandom.   It’s okay to have not read it yet, guys. It’s a great read. There’s nothing to be ashamed of.  Go have fun.  I promise it’s not as difficult as some people make it out to be.
Someone genuinely tried to argue with me that the “White haired version of Morpheus” was not created by Neil Gaiman and was created long after he was done writing The Sandman.  If you have read The Sandman you would understand how wrong this is. 
Don’t try to bluff having read The Sandman if you have not.  We can tell.  We can always tell.  
Tumblr media
8.  There are gatekeepers trying to intimidate new readers into thinking there’s nothing whimsical in The Sandman and that it’s “So deep” and “you won’t get it the first time you read it.  You have to read it a few times to understand it.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yes, there is darkness in The Sandman. It’s part dark fantasy / part Gothic Horror with moments of gore but there are light things too.   Don’t discourage new readers.   I promise the story isn’t as hard to get into as some people make it out to be. I know terms like “Classic” can make some people chafe.  Just give it a try.  If you don’t like the first issue, try the second. If you don’t like the second, keep going until at least issue four.  If you still don’t like it after issue 4, it’s okay to stop.  No one will judge you.  If you don’t like comic books, try the audio drama, it’s divided into chapters like a novel.  Each issue being a chapter.   If you don’t like it after chapter four, that’s okay.  You’ll know if you like it or not by then. 
9.  There is already fan art of Tom Sturridge as Morpheus in funny / ridiculous scenarios.  No picture is given here as I did not get permission from the artists to share them yet.
10. There are already people complaining about the casting without having watched the show yet. One faction claiming the casting is “too woke” while another faction seemed concerned that it’s not inclusive enough even though Desire is nonbinary and pansexual, Death is a black woman, Rose and Unity are black women, Ruthven Sykes is a black man, Lucienne is a black woman who wears spectacles, Lucifer (who has no set gender or even sexual reproductive organs) is being played by a woman, Alexander Burgess is gay, The Corinthian is gay, Johanna Constantine is bisexual, Cain and Abel are South Asian...      
Tumblr media
There even seem to be politically charged rants complaining because the English language show, with an English cast, written by an English writer, has a lead actor with an English accent...
Tumblr media
So what do I have to say about Tumblr discovering The Sandman? 
Well..
 Welcome to the Sandom!  
You’re in for quite a ride.   And don’t put your fingers too close to The Corinthian’s face.  Just... Don’t.

La fuente de la verdad
Hace dos milenios, un temible texto sagrado fue sepultado mediante una conspiración de silencio y asesinato…hasta hoy.Para el detective inglés Nigel Lyman, todo empieza con el sospechoso suicidio de un corrupto banquero italiano en Londres. Para la francesa Mariane Soury-Fontaine, con la misteriosa desaparición de su amante. Y en el caso del matemático norteamericano Joseph Koster, la aventura…

Walks along the Dreaming
Tumblr media
Fandom: The Sandom
Paring: Morpheus x Dream of The Endless
Genre: Fluff
A/N: I love my tall white emo boy sm aaaaa Idk if I'm making it a blurb or nah
Summary: Dream and reader are walking through the Dreaming and Morpheus is just being cuteee because he thinks Reader is cute and it's just aaarrrrhhh
Morpheus watched the sun from his corner on the palace balcony. In the dreaming when the sun finally set a cool breeze filled the air. When the sun in the dreaming finally did set
Unlike in the waking world the sun was always out much longer and though he didn't need the night as it was just an time for mortals to rest their weary bodies. He'd come to love it.
Why?
Because of a certain someone he'd come across. He hadn't meant to get attached. He had been asked for a tour of the dreaming and he complied, it'd been eons since he'd hosted a mortal in his castle. He watched as she'd been mesmerised by what his realm had to offer.
Even now as he watched her slumped in the sands he wonders what's so special about her, why can't he get her out of his head. Maybe she accidentally spelled him.
That might have explained why he appeared beside her. She jumped slightly at his sudden appearance. Before she arose to her feet, bowing slightly
"Lord Morpheus, I hope I cause no trouble," he shakes his head. You've barely done anything except be kind. Something most humans must learn from you.
"May I join you," He asks his voice merely above a whisper. You shyly nod and sink back into the Sands. Morpheus claims a spot by you a fee inches apart. Together you both watch the sea.
After a beat he watches you, even as you cease and lay on your back as you gaze at the stars.
"If I may My Lord-"
"Morpheus,"
"Pardon?"
"You may call me Morpheus," her eyes widened.
"Morpheus," his name slipped off your tongue like honey from the finest aphrodisiac.
He said something which was too quiet for you to hear.
"What?"
"I like how my name sounds from your lips," you swore his eyes flitted down to your lips. Without really thinking much, his name left your lips again.
"Morpheus,"
"I could listen to you for an eternity," You racked your brain trying to remember what you meant to ask.
"You distracted me," you say softly. "I've forgotten what I wished to say," Morpheus chuckled.
"I apologise. Would you, would you care for a walk along the dreaming? Before you retire, It helps with remembering." He asked. "You are within your rights to de-"
"I would be honored,"
"T'is I who should be honored," you blushed as you rose from the sands. The sands didn't cling to your clothes as mortal sand would.
He held out his arm. You flinched before you took it. A sharp pain slashed his chest. What had been done to you to make you so scared of him?
Was it his doing?
Your gripped his arm and gave him a small smile. It's not your fault
"Your realm truly is beautiful Morpheus, "
"It's merely an extension of me,"
"Then, you are beautiful," It came out before you could even think. "I-"
"Thank you although i think I should be the one to call you beautiful, considering you manage to be the main focus of anyone who gazes at you,"
You blush at his words.
"I wonder which other mortals or better goddesses you whisper such sweet things to," you say jealously singing in your head.
"On the contrary I tend to avoid most of them, especially those who seek for me for things other than...help"
"You did not avoid me,"
"True,"
"Why?"
"Something about you called to me, I am yet to know what,"
"I hope it's been worth you're while," you say jokingly.
"It was."
We reached a greenest gardens you've ever seen. The path through the garden shimmered and shone with glitter like stones.
The shrubs and bushes that greeted you held beautiful roses, some were red and some were white, others held different kinds of flowers in different colours.
The moon lit up the entire scene, it's white rays highlighting a swingset.
"Morpheus, this is beautiful," Your eyes roved over the entire place. Morpheus glanced around before looking at you. Then lush green garden
The lush green gardens were something he made eons ago, he'd seen it a million times but for someone like you to compliment them made him feel...warm.
He looked at you, the gardens may have once been the Dreamings most prized possession, but ever since your very prescence entered here.
It paled in comparison, even now as your eyes sparkled at it's beauty his eyes only ever where on you.
"It is quite a sight indeed," you turned to glimpse his face but froze once you noticed his eyes were on you.
"The garden?" You asked although you already knew the answer.
"You," your thoughts scrambled.
You
You
You...
"Me,"
"Yes," a light blushed coloured his cheeks. "You," your lips formed a smile one which he swore lit up the world.
"May I be so bold as to ask you to to...extend your stay in the Dreaming." He paused. "I'm sure the residents would love to have you,"
By residents he meant him. Sure Lucienne would be happy to have another person around but he would be the most pleased.
"I would love that, I'd be honored to spend more time with the residents." Morpheus' heart leaped for the first time in centuries.
She leaned in and pecked his cheek. Morpheus smiled as he realised that:
1. He was in love something he'd never felt in eons
and
2. He was in love with you
***
Here's a lil something

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Robert Alda, Erykah Badu, The Beatles’s 1970 HEY JUDE (AGAIN) LP, Lazar Berman, Buffalo Bill, Michael Bolton, Bunny Briggs, Jonathan Cain, CL, Dane Clark, Jaz Coleman (Killing Joke), Paul Cotton (Poco), Ida Cox, Mark Dacascos, Fats Domino, Bill Duke, Cyrus Faryar, William Frawley, Jackie Gleason, Hagood Hardy, Bob “Bear” Hite, Victor Hugo, Betty Hutton, John Harvey Kellogg, Husband E. Kimmel, Marta Kristen, Christopher Marlowe, Max Martin, Seth Morrison, Michael Pate, Pepe, Corrinne Bailey Rae, Tony Randall, Nate Ruess, Mitch Ryder, Doug Sandom, Schubert’s 1869 Symphony No. 4, Levi Strauss, Dub Taylor, Yōsuke Yamashita, and the legendary singer-songwriter, musical pioneer, actor, and Bible scholar Johnny Cash.
No matter where I went as a kid, the “boom-chicka-boom” of Johnny Cash and The Tennessee Three were playing in the background, with emphasis on the Sun sessions and the prison albums. Cash was one of the unifying sound-streams amongst family and friends who’d, otherwise, never agree on what to listen to. With his own brand of rebellious humility, he sang about the temporal and the eternal, intertwining the world view of a hardscrabble working man with that of a mystic. Throughout my life, in consistent and sometimes surprising patterns, Cash spoke to me about spiritual matters, even if I didn’t get it on the first pass. Musically he proved that stark and simple could be amazingly effective. HB JC and thank you for being a role model. Please enjoy my cover of “Ring of Fire”…
