Stars

HC Hob has this kind of ceiling in his bedroom, vibrant, glittery and spectacular. He painted it himself. He is crafty that way.

After their first time, spent and sticky with sweat Hob and Dream lay in bed, talking lazily, giggling and caressing each other's skin. Dream's skin is smooth, cold, and soft. Hob's skin is scarred, warm, and rough. It's perfect. Dream mouths Hob's throat, drinking the sounds coming from Hob's lips.

Hob had waited for this moment for over 500 years. He had hoped that one of these days, his stranger would be his lover. At last. It was true.

Hob did not sleep that night, he held Dream and talked and talked. Asked him endless questions, what he is, how he came to be, how the Dreaming is a part of him. In return, he told him all about the new age, the changes. Even when his arm fell asleep from being under Dream, he didn't move.

"Are you asleep?" Dream asked at some point.

"No", came the sheepish reply.

"That's a wonderful ceiling you have", he comments, just like the first time he saw his room a few weeks ago.

"Thanks. I painted it", murmured Hob, clearly fighting to remain awake.

"You can sleep", Dream reminds him,"I'll be here when you wake up".

“No, I’m fine”, Hob ran his hand on Dream’s jaw and kept it there, gently pressed against it.

“Your eyes are…beautiful”, Hob breathed, he didn’t dare to even blink.

They were beautiful, Dream’s eyes, they reflected the cosmos, the borning stars, the winking stars, the bursting nebulae, the damning blackholes, all of it. It appeared as if his eyes were windows to the universe themselves.

“You flatter me”, his cheeks went pink, his red lips tilted in a small smile.

“I love to see you red”, he brushed the back of his fingers against his cheek,

“Storyteller, tell me a tale”, Hob requested promptly,

Without taking his eyes off Hob, who was completely hypnotised with his eyes, Dream waved a hand to the ceiling, “I can SHOW you a tale”, delicately, Dream grabbed Hob’s chin and turned it to the ceiling.

Hob was stunned to say the least. It was spectacular, mind blowing, intriguing and celestial, to say the least. He personally felt like he was flying across the cosmos, like he can touch the stars, so close and intimate. He felt the stars dancing around him, the immortal basked in their company. It was almost like he could hear their heavenly laughter and siren-like voice, calling out to him to join their never ending celebration of life, universe and just being bigger than life.

The colours, oh, the colours, they were more beautiful than anything Hob had ever seen. Red, orange, green, blue, violet, pink, even the simple black stood out so much. So rich and vivid were the colours, no picture can compare. The way the nebulae move around, swimming freely like a mermaid in the deep sea. So many colours. Hob was sure there are more than his human eyes can comprehend or translate.

“It’s amazing”, Hob’s breath hitched. He reached out his hand to touch them.

For a moment, he felt tiny, microscopic even. What or who is he in the grand scheme of things?

“Thank you”, Dream muttered, “I’ve crafted them”,

“I know”, Hob chuckled.

“I mean the actual stars. The Night is my Mother, but she wasn’t as decorated as she is now”,

Hob blinked and turned his gaze to Dream, who was still staring at him, unblinkingly. Such adoration and love in his galaxy eyes.

“She is beautiful”, Hob managed, before his words got stuck in his throat.

“Aye. But I rather look at you”, Dream smirked at the open mouthed shock on Hob’s face. He brought his hand to Hob’s hairy arms, “Universe is a vast thing, you can be easily lost in it. So are your eyes. And I have been there. I prefer where I can feel your warmth and sweet touch”, Dream carried on the stroking to his hip and thigh, “You show me humanity that I’ve long forgotten”, the Endless blinked, now caressing his neck “Trust me when I say, the stars and planets holds no candle to your brilliance, my heart”

It’s safe to say Hob’s mind short circuited that moment and they didn’t get ANY sleep that night.

The Fishbowl

Dreams can never sleep like living things do who close their eyes and melt between the waking and the dreaming: their passage is safe and easy as breathing. For a dream, it’s not that way. For a dream, it’s like squeezing through a vein and sometimes it clots and no counting sheep no warm milk or weary eyes can soothe a nightmare home. A murderer has the respite of sleep, sanctuary from any corporeal crime. Babies dream with a gluttony and mourners drink until troubled thoughts form a lullaby. Rats and cats and hares can sleep but for the King of Sleep dreaming rests like the heavy weight of a crown. 100 years is a very long time when you’re imprisoned in body and waking mind.

Me and my partner designed a Sandman Shaker charm, inspired by Morpheus trapped in a basement for 100 years 👏🏻

This is the first prototype, but in the future we will probably make Dream bigger in size 💕 please let us know if you would like a kickstarter to fund his updated release!

TikTok is @spirit_of_the_void ✨

$20/2,000 words

etc.

I accept offers for a minimum of 1,000 words and a maximum of 5,000 words.

Number of slots: 2

Extreme gore

How to commission me:

I will be accepting donations until July 21st ‘23

Once I’ve seen your receipt, I’ll start working on your project.

I reserve the right to refuse commissions if I’m not comfortable with them or feel like I’m unable to accept them for lack of time, skill or any other reason.

Do you every worry about Neil Gaiman seeing your posts?

Not really. He's a famous, influential, and celebrated creative who also appears to be a bit of a good time gal (if his presence on tumblr is anything to go by) so I don't think that he gives much of a shite what I get up to. Which is the ideal situation to be honest.

I'm just a wanker who enjoys the characters he's created as I have fun exploring them through my own creative means. I don't profit from it and I don't claim ownership. It's all just a bit of fun and an outlet for creative passion. If anything, I like to think he would take some joy in that as a concept because to inspire others can be a beautiful thing.

Also, I'm not one of those strange people who actively seeks creators out to shove my thoughts/creations down their throat despite the fact that doing so makes them clearly uncomfortable and can also be a legal minefield. I stay firmly in my wee lane.

#i think i have a very good attitude towards this issue #i post my nonsense and if hes ever unfortunate enough to come across it then he can look past it 🤣#people who want creators to validate their fanworks are odd imo #neil gaiman #the sandman #American gods #good omens #fandom #tumblr

If Hob's confession/love declaration in Saint Morpheus gave you any kind of feelings, this will give them to you one-fucking-thousandfold.

If the "Kneel" excerpt made you feel some type of way, you are about to feel EVERY type of way.

Take a listen (I beg you) to this fantastic reading by @ginjones, and then join me where I lie in ruin upon the floor, torn into a million shreds by Gin's lovely Scottish voice.

There's no sense in reading when you could listen to this instead, but here's a link to the chapter on ao3 / transcript. don't worry about spoilers if you haven't read any of it. just listen to this. fuck. what a GIFT this fandom is.

p.s. if you enjoyed this - and you will - please go send Gin your love

the sandman missing symbolism..

hey. Hey! Dreamers! Have we been sleeping on this theme??

so I went down a rabbit hole (this started with boiling my eggs)

Hob could have heard of a sand-glass for timekeeping even during his original life time! He might not have seen one until his next lifetime-- highly likely to have one in church or major public house.

still- we have not been leaning into the complex symbolism of the "orlogiis vitreis" as it connects to time passing. keeping track of time. and things trapped inside of glass.

^^ THAT's a representation of Morpheus with an hourglass!

dated c. 350, representing the wedding of Peleus and Thetis (observe the magnification with the object held by Morpheus in his hands)

@qqueenofhades @landwriter @moorishflower

thoughts?
