Seiya's favorite rarepairs 1/? Johanna Constantine x Dream of the Endless (ConstantDream/Morphenna)

[justjaymi]

After bingeing dead Boy Detectives in a day (oops) I realised that it is the ONLY show I have ever watched where I didn’t hate at least one character.

I mean, Sandman - I despised Johanna Constantine, to the point where I’d actually roll my eyes when she showed up (i dunno it’s a thing, I can’t describe it, she just grinds my gears)

Good Omens - Sandalphon, the dick

Hannibal - Alana, again can’t explain but ughhhh

Like every single show that’s I’ve enjoyed, there’s a least one person where I just their entire presence on screen, but DBD???? They’re all icons and I love them

Even the ones you’re supposed to hate - Monty is adorable, Esther is incredible, the Night Nurse is a brilliant character, even David the Demon played a good part and had me on my toes the entire way through, I love him

JUDY'S JACKET IS SO ICONIC. TO ME. I have that panel burned into my eyelids. And Johanna... She's a bit too clean and neat. That's a problem of all live action Constantines, but she's the one who suffers the most

I think the problem is that they kinda made all characters less alt? And yes this goes for the Endless looking less goth and without all the hairdo, but also minor characters like Judy or the Doll's House bunch

They tried to "modernize" how they looked but the way they looked wasn't dated, it was just part of some different subcultures. So the result is that everyone looks a bit bland and generic, like characters from any other TV show. It lost a bit of its identity

They were so focused on modernizing the aesthetic of the characters that they forgot that the quirky dated aspects are really endearing and a huge part of the visual impact for the reader. Like. The dreaming was visually stunning but I feel like the CGI was the entire budget bc everyone looked so bland. Lyta was pretty but rather indistinct, I missed her trademark white hair. Rose’s outfits were drab. I really missed the kitschy neon nightclub in Hell and I hate giles deacon i thought Lucifer’s outfits were meh and their hair and makeup could’ve been more creative. anyway overall 5/10 I want spectacle I want the sandman characters to serve CUNT

So, I just binge-watched

The Sandman.

(Disclaimer: I have not read the source material (yet) but intend to. I'm merely talking about the TV show and what I read the stories and characters and their relationship and gender identity as)

Alright, so first things first: The first episode and intro immediately got me hooked! And that is saying something because not many shows achieve that

I'm often forcing myself to continue through them because I've heard the show's overall good or I saw gif sets of a later point and really want to get there...

But this was not at all the same here. The sandman definitely is one of the few shows that immediately grabbed my attention and held onto it tightly (so much so that I finished the whole season in one sitting... uuups) - God-tier show right there!

Next: The costume design, the overall setting and scenery, the animations and visual effects, the camera movement angles and lighting effects and just the composition and overall aesthetic of this show was magnificent!!!!

It just left me gaping at my screen because it was done so beautifully and felt so real and palpable! Good stuff and definitely 100% immersive!

(Aside from that one diner episode where my attention shortly drifted... but hey it was late and I'm currently feeling a little under the weather sooo forgive me...)

Now, on to the story. I loved the progression of it all and the continous build-up of suspense, as well as the way all episodes connected but also stood well individually, and that there was always room left to wonder and play detective trying to figure out what was going on, how the characters were related, and also what the characters true personality and goals and intentions are!

Especially the Nightmare wanting to be a dream was so nicely done, the way the viewer was told they were or had to be bad and up to no good, but then the first point of doubt occurred knowing that they were actually helping so how could they be bad?! In the same way there was one episode that really made me question whether Morpheus wasn't going to be the overall villain after all.

I really like this kind of story telling where you can't yet be sure who's really good and well-meaning and whose devious... And, speaking of which, in any way I liked, how the show made it clear that everyone had a reason for everything they did, even or especially for the bad stuff, and that they were ALL flawed and morally gray and not clearly good or evil. (Aside from Death my love and icon, who's 100% perfect and could do no wrong)

Damn I really dig that play with unclearly-cut morality so hard!!!

Then, let's go in to the individual characters and relationships.

As I already hinted at, Death my beloved, you are utterly gorgeous and have my heart!

Morpheus, the definition of broody, black-haired, blue-eyed male character my 25-year-old same as my past 14-year-old self still swoon and droll over. (OMG that deep voice!!! Please spare my ovaries!)

Johanna Constantine (or Clara Oswald? Hello is that you?) - just a female badass, spactacular, so hot and gorgeous it was not the hell fire that made me fan myself during that epsiode. And I want to be held at dagger point by her as well please!

The Fates - I couldn't have wished for better representation of these three almighty goddesses! So well done! (Nothing against Hercules, but what the fck Disney?!)

The biggest shout-out goes to Desire and Lucifer - my personal enby icons!!! Seriously, these two are non-binary to me, I have not read the source material yet and I'm only referring to the show, but please if I'm wrong let me bath in that amazing feeling of nonbinary represantation a moment longer!

They are both so beautiful and like, imagine what a power move it would be to make Lucifer enby because they're a freaking angel and angels don't abide to "human" laws anyway and as celestial primordial beings why would they adhere to a construct such as gender anyway? Yeah Lucifer is nonbinary. You can't change my mind.

Now, I don't know how to say this and hope this does read like I intend it to. You know how in most new "popular" Netflix productions they make sure to finally include queer characters and then it's basically just one or two and it feels a bit forced and like they only did it for morality points like "look here, we're now diverse and LGBTQ inclusive!" but it just feels a little off and overall lacking or stereotypical...?

With The Sandman, the queerness felt right. Just right. Natural. It was just there and belonged there and that's it. It got the same attention and note the het pairings or allusions did and wasn't shown as something special or new. It just was.

And I loved that so much. Because that's what good representation is supposed to look like. Not pointing with a neon sign at it but letting it appear normal and natural and unquestionable within the narrative. It's just there. Period. 🙏🏼🌈

Talking about pairings... Another thing I liked is how this show allows for so many pairings and ships right from the start!!!

Seriously when episode 1 rolled in I thought this was going to be an enemies to lovers arc between Morpheus and the Corinthian.

(still would read it as such and ship them...)

Then we moved over to Johanna Constantine being introduced and fuuuuuuck the chemistry between her and Morpheus was insane!!!! Being stuck in BL hell for such a long time I thought a het couple (other then Zutara and Lokane or Beefleaf (if you stretch it) ) would not do it for me ever again. But Morphanna might just have given me new kicks and writing juices for a het couple (no I have definitely not already scoured AO3 for fics for them).

Also you can easily make it a throuple if we reverse Rachel's tragic untimely passing (I'm still crying over here... That shit really hurt... ) 🌈❤️ and why not add Hob Gadling to the mix as well and it's a lovely polycule 😍👌🏼(though I personally read Morpheus and him as platonic first and then maybe later developing into romantic love (season 2?) but somehwere on the asexual and aromantic spectrum)

Also what in the ever loving fck was that??!!

I don't know if shipping them would count as incest seeing that they are siblings but holy freaking moly that was one spicy scene.... (that did definitely not give me several day dreams and WIP ideas and the urge to read fic for that ship...)

So now, how to finish this super long-ass post that somewhat escalated... Well, as you may have noticed I really was overwhelmed by this amazing show and am currently developing a new hyperfixation that hopefully won't interfere with my ongoing XueXiao and VegasPete brainrot... So yeah, let's see how it goes from here^^

I swear, I forgot a shit ton of other stuff I wanted to say and add (I mean I could write an essay alone on Lucifer and Death and Morphanna...), but let's leave it at that for now^^

Again Disclaimer: This was written with only my TV show understanding of the characters and relationships if its wildly off of canon then so be it.
