#desire x corinthian

[zorawitch]

Dont know that anyone is going to care but...

i honestly cannot pick because all of these were and are labors of love and if i make a few of you decide for me, i can work on my other fics in the meantime.

[gabessquishytum]

So since there's no official Kinktober this year, I thought it would be fun to put together a few unofficial prompts for some Sandman shenanigans. Whatever pairing you'd like to do, whatever prompts you'd like to choose - even if it's only one of them, or all of them - it's completely up to you! This is really meant as a little inspiration in the hope that the wonderful Sandman community will create some fun and kinky content! Please feel free to reblog this - and it would be lovely if we could tag stuff with #Sandmankinktober to share the debauchery, too!

I feel that desire and the Corinthian have a lot of similarities

[weirdly-specific-but-ok]

pt II sandman but i've never watched or read it

It's happening again I'm being kidnapped again there's no hope left for me god I'm so in love with Dream he's such a cutiepie uh right this post okay. I'm uh the Good Omens Mascot and I'm losing my mind here have part two based on whatever I have understood from y'all's replies to my first post.

It's Neil's baby and a lot of amazing artists are involved. One of whom made Dream look like a gooey pile of sad adorableness in volume 1.

Dream is a sad wet lonely repressed cat of a man. No I do not have one type.

There's this dude whom I think is named the Corinthian. He's a dream (but not Dream) and he can see things.

His eyes are mouths and his teeth are apparently Very White and any dental hygienist would orgasm at the sight.

Dream was kept prisoner for a century. Where? I don't fucking know. Why? I don't fucking know. How? Er there was some kind of. Glass (?) case.

There's a sleeping sickness while he's gone coz things got weird.

His raven is killed by someone and maybe he should have forgiven him but he could not.

Something happens at the end of Volume 7 that people need to recover from.

There's someone with glasses who keeps telling Dream stuff and they're Very Important and I have no fucking clue who they are.

There's someone named Freddie and people are feral for him and I don't know who he is.

Dream is just constantly on the verge of tears. Always. Just fucking always. Poor baby.

Sandman more like Sadman amirite.

He thinks everything ever is his fault. Mood.

EVERYONE KEEPS REASSURING ME THERE IS NO CANONICAL INCEST BUT APPARENTLY BOTH DREAM AND DESIRE HAVE SEXUAL TENSION WITH EVERYONE INCLUDING THEIR FAMILY AND EACH OTHER AND THEY ARE SIBLINGS AND AAAAAAAAA.

The family is Endless btw and I don't know what that means but they are.

Dream has a boyfriend (long distance? idk they keep meeting each other every 100 years) named after a cooking stove who calls Dream out for being lonely and Dream doesn't like that and they fight and then they go into the rain etc etc.

Hob is immortal because he does not want to die and he is convinced that humans only die because they uh think there's no other option. It's giving just think positive thoughts.

Dream almost stands him up but then doesn't some bar is moved.

There are keys to Hell and Dream doesn't know what to do with them.

There are tools and they make you weak.

Desire has all the genders.

I am apparently exactly like Delirium.

Dream is a sad wet cat at one point and then he turns into a shadowy being with cute bright eyes.

Dream is fucking pretty in every single fucking century like oh my fuckING GOD I AM SO GAY

Tom Sturridge (?) is Dream's actor and he has chemistry with everyone on screen apparently which leads to incest vibes

There's some kind of fucking Grape Incest scene

Despair is played by Mrs Sandwich

Death is kind and cuddles a dead baby at one point

It's gay but I do not know HOW it is gay but I am assured it is Gay

Er. Feel free to correct me.

🫵 I'm giving you the same ask I gave softest-punk

Desire-Hob-Cori

How would you right this chaos fueled crackship?

Anon I have legit thought of nothing but this ask all day. I was actually counting down the minutes until I could leave the office so I could write this for you. What an honor to receive on the first day of Pride. 💖

For those unfamiliar, here's the original ask and fill from @softest-punk [Click Here].

Dedicating this prompt to @aquilathefighter @the-cloudy-dreamer and @honeyteacakes for helping me with this brainworm. And to @gil212 and @lyriclorelei for the puns.

I present to you, Desire x Hob x Corinthian at Drag Brunch~

-----------

“I thought,” Desire quips over a bright pink drink, “you said there would be entertainment.”

“The show hasn’t started yet,” Hob replies. “We’re eating first. And drinking,” he adds, holding up his own yellow slushy concoction. 

“Speak for yourself,” the Corinthian interjects from across the table. “I’ve got a great view in front of me.”

“Flatterer,” Desire rolls their eyes but Hob can feel them preening from beside him. 

“View’s not bad from here either,” Hob says, wrapping an arm around Desire’s waist and planting a kiss on a well sculpted cheek. He shoots the Corinthian a wink too, just for good measure.

“Disgusting,” Desire sighs, even as they lean into Hob’s shoulder.

It’s another 15 minutes before the pub dims their lights, and the host who’d seated them announces that the show is starting soon. Desire still seems skeptical of the whole thing, but they hum and settle against Hob, resting one immaculately manicured hand against the table, an open invitation that the Corinthian takes.

“And now!” the host yells into the microphone. “Please welcome our first queen, Amanda Fallfor!”

A familiar violin trill makes its way across the room, soft at first, and as the vocals begin, Amanda strides into the room, dressed in a hot pink evening gown and matching feather boa wrapped around her shoulders. She glides effortlessly around the room, wrapping the boa around some necks, and batting her large eyelashes dramatically. Many of the patrons swoon after her, miming a phone call with their hands. 

“Her eyebrows aren’t blocked properly,” Desire tuts under their breath so only Hob (and the Corinthian probably, he’s got very good ears) can hear. “You can see her natural eyebrows from outside the pub. One of them is bigger than the other.”

“Be nice,” Hob mutters, trying not to look disapproving while Amanda is wrapping up her performance of Call Me Maybe. 

“That was not part of our deal,” Desire replies. “But fine. The pink suits her. Happy?”

“Everyone’s a critic,” the Corinthian chuckles. “She’s got nice eyes.”

Hob snorts. “You would notice that,” he says.

As Amanda makes her exit, the waitstaff come around to collect their food, and take new drink orders. Desire and Cori order more slushies, but Hob’s the one who drove today, so he settles on water instead. 

“Next, please welcome Vulva Cano!” the pub host announces.  

“How crass,” Desire tuts. 

“I like it,” the Corinthian grins. 

“You better not, or you’re sleeping on the couch,” Desire says testily. 

“Are you jealous, Desire?” Hob asks, not bothering to hide the glee in his voice. 

“Of that awful outfit?” Desire says as Vulva appears in a bright orange and yellow bodysuit. “Never.”

The rest of the show passes in a similar fashion, with Desire nitpicking everything on the performers from their makeup to how they walk in their absurdly high heels. Hob thinks Desire would be an absolutely ruthless judge on RuPaul and decides to add it to his ever growing list of human experiences to introduce his otherworldly lovers to.

“Ugh, why perform Margaritaville if your name is Mimosa Thyme?” Desire complains of the last performer.

“Pretty sure it’s for the bit, love,” Hob chuckles. “Admit it, you had fun.”

“I would’ve had more fun in our bed,” Desire purrs, nuzzling into Hob’s neck.  

“I bet you’d absolutely smoke the rest of them if you were up there, baby,” the Corinthian says, grinning predatorily. Hob shoots him a withering look. They both know Desire can’t resist a chance to show off.

Predictably, Desire perks up. “You’re absolutely right darling. Be right back.”

“You,” Hob sighs fondly at the blonde, “are a menace. Both of you.”

“Aww Hobsie, you know you wanna see it too,” the Corinthian replies. “You know the sex is better when they’re riled up first.”

Hob has no rebuttal so he stays quiet. The Corinthian stands up and takes Desire’s vacated seat, wrapping his arms around Hob’s waist possessively. 

Before long, they hear the echo of the host once more.

“We have a surprise performer on the docket today! Everyone give it up for Endless Desire!”

Well, Hob thinks as the lights dim once more. At least they have the best seats in the house.

Sandman Ships

Ok, so since the first season dropped on Netflix there as been a lot of Dream of the Endless love especially with how absolutely gorgeous they made him look thanks to Tom Sturridge already being a beautiful man. And Tom has knack for coming into his projects and serving absolute cunt... and depending on the project, he comes in, serves cunt, has sexual chemistry with everyone, and then either leaves or even just straight up dies. That's Tom for you.

And it wasn't any different in The Sandman. He comes in, serves cunt, looks hella tortured and sad, and then tries to be all dominating when he is in fact just an absolute cinnamon roll that needs a hug and or a decent fuck. Over a hundred years in a glass bowl will make one both touch adverse but also touch starved, so...

Anyway, there are a couple ships that I do get, one ship that I get but is controversial and then a ship I don't get at all because they had no chemistry at all.

First and foremost, Hob Gadling and Dream. This whole friendship is queer-coded. They have a meet cute, a curiosity about one another, flirting, denial, reconnection... it was so romantic it's ridiculous. So, yeah, I am on the Dreamling train for sure. The way they look at each other, the way Hob was super jealous when Dream left him to go fuck Shakespeare (you absolutely know that Dream fucked Shakespeare to "inspire" him), the way Hob came to Dream's defense when 1789 Johanna Constantine came with her men with demands, the way Hob tried to bring up the fact that Dream is lonely, the way Hob looked so sad when he realized he got stood up, the way his eyes lit up when Dream finally came. Yeah, Hob is head over heals in love with Dream. Dream might need some convincing, but he is intrigued and curious about Hob in a way that he can't quite put his finger on but it is not just friendship.

I am still mad that because Dream was captured that we lost out on seeing 1989 Dream... he would've been so goth and hot it would've been criminal. I hope they do an 1980's thing in the show at some point so we can see Tom go all out in a 1980's look and the goth/metal look from that era. Tom would look so good and Hob would just die for it like the rest of us.

The other ship I see with Dream is actually modern Johanna Constantine. I don't see many people talk about their chemistry here on Tumblr but I have seen a few fanfics on AO3, so, some people agree with me. Just the way they spoke to each other, how close they stood to each other, some lingering looks. Johanna is bisexual too, so, I see it. Their chemistry was off the charts. Also, he actually listens to her when she calls him out on his bullshit. She actually gets through to him a bit, it seems, you know. A sign of respect, which all good relationships need, romantic/sexual or not, to be a halfway decent relationship.

Now the controversial one; Dream and Desire. Yeah, yeah. They're siblings. I know. They still had chemistry. Dream pulling their head back? Yeah, that was hot. And they are literally more than gods. If the gods of mythology and lore are always marrying family members, why would more than gods beings not sometimes partake in relations with their own relations? They aren't human and therefore are not bound by the same laws and rules and morals as us humans are. I am not trying to make a case or an excuse for incest as a whole, because I am not, incest is bad, but I am saying that beings that aren't human might not view incest the same as we do when it comes to other beings that are like them.

I have not read the comics fully, but apparently Desire used to be Dream's favorite, like they used to be close, whatever that looked like... and then Dream got with someone and Desire started to fuck with Dream's love life... as far as I know the comics never say how Desire was Dream's favorite, but would it be completely out of left field if they had been romantic at one time? Dreams and desires have very similar functions, they as concepts work well with one another, so, it wouldn't surprise me is Dream and Desire had been intimate once upon a time... and that would explain why Dream and Desire had a falling out after Dream started to pull away and explore other romantic interests. It is just a thought. Like I said, I have not read all the comics yet.

The one ship I do not see and will never see is The Corinthian and Dream. Yes, Dream is a dark and brooding goth twink (I know the term is outdated, but if there is another term I could use to describe him better, please let me know) and then we have our charismatic Southern hospitable gay serial killer man that is one of Dream's own creations, a nightmare... and Dream is the Dreaming and if the dreams and nightmares are Dream's creations and of the Dreaming and Dream is the Dreaming... then this would be narcissistic... though we all know Dream is sort of self important... and Cori (I'm just gonna call him that for simplicity sake), is also very much in his "but what about what I want?" era... so, both have those narcissistic tendencies, but Cori is so fed up with Dream I don't see this ever being romantic or sexual. I didn't see the chemistry, it wasn't there. It is more of a parent child relationship. And whereas I don't agree with Cori going out and inspiring a literally army of serial killers, he is very much like a millennial older child trying to talk to their boomer parent about their own toxicity. Cori is disillusioned with Dream and the way he runs things in the Dreaming. Dream is cold, unfeeling, too focused on the status quo and Cori wants to change all that. This relationship never came off as sexual or romantic, I'm sorry. All the Corintheus shippers out there, I'm sorry, but I don't buy it or see it. maybe the comics it was more prominent but Tom and Boyd didn't play it like that. I know Tom tends to have sexual chemistry with almost every costar he has ever had, but Boyd was/is not one of them.

Anyway, that's all the ships that I have seen in The Sandman show and then the one that other people saw that I just don't see at all. What do ya'll think?
