Rising from the dead to share this painting and then disappear again

I have spent over 90 hours of my life on this thing because I have had the brain rot for the last 2 years of my life (almost 20 if you count when I first read the comics) and it had to express itself somehow

Hope this dramatic bitch feels appreciated

(A Dream of Morpheus, handmade egg tempera on panel, 12x18 inches...if by any chance you'll be at SDCC or Gen Con, I'll be at booth 934/936 at the first one and Art Show #13 at the second one - come see the original, maybe get a print, or just yell/cry about Sandman with me?)

And here, have some more details - I had fun combining some favorite elements from both the comic and the show ♡

I love that neil is pure of heart, dumb of ass, and also deeply fucked up

He’s just a little guy! All his friends love him and want him to take care of himself! He’ll totally kill that guy for you though. He protects his friends by mouthing off to horrifically dangerous people. He can’t tell that he’s being flirted with. He always respects his boyfriend’s boundaries and is hyper-vigilant about consent. He also got too distracted listening to his worstie scream in pain after his bf broke the guy’s arm to pay attention to his team checking on him despite the fact that the aforementioned bitch nearly killed him on national TV. He got his bf to agree to stop protecting him so that andrew wouldn’t feel responsible when he was inevitably killed. He comforted himself while being held by the FBI by replaying his father’s execution in his mind over and over. His only regret was that his mom didn’t live long to see his dad dead. But! He’s also so sorry that he upset his boyfriend by getting kidnapped. He put a hit out on a rapist over lunch. He insults the FBI. He challenged the yakuza and won and watched his enemy get executed and then was so giddy over it that his team wanted to know what was up and he lied to them. He’s a fucked up little guy. A Creature even. Morbid as hell. Deeply unserious. Protective as fuck with a mean, vindictive streak a mile wide. Would do anything up to and including killing someone for his found family. What a guy. Damn.

this screencap is fucking killing me rn like oh my GOD. TODD. i didnt know you were such a master of subtlety!!!

NOBODY CAN TELL YOURE GAY!!!!!! YOU GOTTA BE LESS COOL AND CHILL AND NORMAL ABOUT YOUR BEST FRIEND DUDE QUICK!!

[o-vera-nalyzing]

my biggest aftg head canon is that andrew is just a silly little guy—like his meds didn’t change his personality he was just more easily distractable and had less of a filter so all the stupid little jokes he made are his own

[fortheloveofexy]

it's a pet peeve of mine when ppl frame Andrew as hating Aaron and being needlessly cruel to him... bc while yes, their relationship is fractured and strained, Andrew genuinely cares about his brother and wants the best for him, he just doesn't know how to show that in a normal way.

like he might not know how to express it in a healthy manner but Andrew LOVES Aaron, like he truly just wants Aaron to be healthy and safe. It's like, his whole Thing. Aaron is one of the most important people in his life. Andrew wants him around. He'd do anything to protect him.

I guarantee Andrew wants to be emotionally close to Aaron too, he just doesn't have the tools to do that and the thought of letting someone in terrifies him. He also has no concept of what a healthy sibling relationship looks like, so he has no frame of reference to work from.

I just had someone do this so I'm drawing a boundary right the fuck now; if you @ mention neil gaiman in anything you reblog from me, whether it's mine or not, I WILL be blocking you. Permanently, not soft blocking you.

to the people using the whole "david tennant getting attacked by govt officials for supporting trans ppl" thing to shield neil gaiman from real allegations of sexual assault I Am Killing You With My Mind. like what the hell how did we get here. yes there are a bunch of terfs using this as "proof" to say all people that support trans rights are secretly horrible people. yes the paywalled conservative podcast is unethical. no this does not dismiss the validity of the allegations and no this does not mean this is all a conspiracy made by the transphobes to target your favorite lgbt allies (??) or influence the election (??!). EVEN IF WE TAKE NEIL AT HIS WORD those are still two relationships w SEVERE power imbalances and u should not be defending him. Lord

Ugh, I feel so conflicted about Good Omens all the time now - like, every time you see a piece of fanart I've reblogged, just assume there's a solid minute of indecision about queuing it.

Part of me wants s3 to get canceled (and s2 of Sandman as well) and everyone to just forget about his cultural impact, because it would fucking serve him right. Part of me is like, well, these things don't just represent fame and money to him, they're jobs for hundreds of other people, and a big break for at least one or two - plus it's Terry Pratchett's legacy, supposedly the plot they'd worked out together. And then I get suspicious of myself and accuse myself of only wanting to see how GO was going to be wrapped up.
