I feel so bad for neil gaiman right now, he has every right to be proud of what the Sandman has become, but now he has to sit here and watch us all drool over Dream, simp for Constantine or Desire, and even us sickos who were rooting for and are down abysmal for the Corinthian.

neil. neil. if evil then why hot? riddle me that.

the thing i believe about morphienne (in any iteration, canon-edge, au, whatever you like) is this. it takes them absolutely fucking forever to say the string of words "i love you" to each other and that's if they even get around to it. because they just don't see the UTILITY of it. why the fuck would you say something as trite and limiting as "i love you" when you have this intense and all-encompassing and deeply intimate connection-slash-entanglement that defies linguistic classification? it's almost insulting to pin a ridiculous little word like "love" on a relationship like the one they have. which is not to say it's not romantic, sexual, etc, it's just, they're both aware on a molecular level of how much their relationship matters to each other and to themselves, and how many more layers to their relationship there are than just lover/lover (god/supplicant. king/seneschal. right brain/left brain. chaos/order. and so forth). it feels a little like going around saying "the sky is blue" or "you need to breathe to live" all day to them. like. they know. they both know. and as far as they're concerned, what could be more beautiful and terrible than just knowing and being known?

the thing i believe about dannyluce (again in any iteration) is that more or less fresh out the fuckin' oven danny says "i love you. no you don't have to have a response to that. i just wanted to say it, because i think it matters" (or the equivalent) (because he was made to be better. and part of better from the morpheus perspective is loves more easily or is easier to love). and it scares lucienne absolutely shitless because oh. shit. oh shit wait i love you actually can mean something profound if you let it. and you can just say it. without it being a whole Production. it means Everything and you can just say it and that doesn't keep it from meaning Everything. okay one second have to lock myself in the hermetically sealed chamber and Scream for a bit

and that ALSO does not preclude a deep, genuine, and romantic love between the two of them it's just. well. it's an adjustment!

also danny is a hands talker and does strange elbow motions sometimes. but we've been through this before.

And people hate this series lol

long time no see ...

Dino miles ...

actually speaking of dead wives what if I added my extremely mixed source Orpheus back on here, now with added mansand flavour.

can't fuckin believe my first mansand fic is just. hobrin.thian being unhinged together. i don't even like the ship that much it was kind of just an excuse to write [redacted].

How about 12 and 16 for the new year fic asks?

12. will you change anything about the way you edit/rewrite this year? realistically, no. much to everyone including mine's chagrin, i tend to be an "edit as you go" fanfic author and yes this DOES cause me problems when it's a longfic, no i will NOT learn from my past mistakes. my pre-posting edits are a whole separate deal that i don't like to look at too closely on the assumption that it will unravel if i do.

16. do you have that one fanfic you wrote a ton for, ages ago, but never posted? will this be the year that it WILL get finished and posted? Louisiana murderfish fic DOES need to be updated. i have a whole outline written and multiple scenes sketched out and just Have Not Done The Words. i do still care so much about Will Graham being a cannibal mermaid. has anyone else done this so i can be absolved of this terrible responsibility?

(we're not talking about [redacted]. if you know you know. if you don't...well, you weren't there 3000 years ago and count yourself lucky for that.)

[gesturing wildly]

personals coming on to what is clearly an rp post and trying to educate me on my main fandom via reblog so now an entire fandom is interacting with the post god fucking damn it.

happy birthday moon... puts my hand on your snout like youre a beatiful wild horse

TY.MYETH. gives tuo an apple

I want The Corinthian to call Dream: Mansand,  mainly to piss him off and to see his reactions 

Dream: Yes. You will be the embodiment of fear and the dark side of mankind. You will invoke their terror and strike them deep within their hearts.

The Corinthian: Okay.

The Corinthian: *starts killing people*

Dream:

Dream:

Dream: >:(

starting the new year off right with some werewolves being fucking unwell

@lucienne-thee-librarian @raspberryjellybrains pspspspspsps

gimme some sila headcanons about how he'd vibe with other mansand characters!

calli.ope: best. buds. sila would be immediately ride or die for her. de.ath: everyone loves her and sila is no exception. that being said, i think he also resents her for people he's lost. delir.ium: also best buds. can you imagine the del.irium & corinth & sila shenanigans? they'd be too powerful and that was why they were never allowed to interact in canon. de.sire: gender envy all around. sila is so full of desire (for belonging and kinship and men and attention and love and a billion other things besides). they'd sleep together and then sila would get mad about being used. dre.am: sila would hate how pretentious and dismissive he is. ho.b: idk i feel like they'd be kind of ambivalent towards each other. or maybe ho.b has enough "just a guy" vibes for sila to be into him? could go either way tbh. joha.nna: sila would not like her. i cannot explain why bc i have not been granted that knowledge, i just feel it in my bones.

[leans into your askbox] i'm here to present you with the concept of mansand verses for your blorbos

(but also i fully intend to read through each bio or its associated wiki page when i'm more awake so you can write in their og verses too. i WILL indulge your brainrot.)

i fucking love you for indulging my brainrot bestie ur the best im currently picking out rings <3

YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT MANSAND VERSES

specifically i've been thinking abt mansand & Leonid, Lilith, Qin Yi, & Momo (hilarious i know, of course the talking cat is gonna be a dream)

Leonid gives vibes of a ruler of another realm, either something abt knowledge or beauty idk. Lilith is a creation of Desire cause that fits so well with her actual canon. Qin Yi vibes are like that of Shakespeare in mansand, making a deal to get the life that he has as a famous actor. and Momo is literally a talking cat, he's a god damn dream what else could he be

the only ones I still need to think abt would be Loen & Lunar, Nikki & Rosie are easier to put anywhere bc Style Savvy is basically just earth, so Rosie is just Rosie && Nikki was a normal girl on Earth before she & Momo were sent to Miraland as the Chosen One(tm)

if you make me think about how hard he's going to break her heart someday i'm going to fucking LOSE it
