Dear Librarian, first thank you so much for your beautiful blog <3 I wanted to ask for a rec of fics hurt/comfort I love this trope and always brings to me warn feelings
Hello! Your holds have arrived!
First, let me thank you in return for your wonderful ask! I love hearing that you've enjoyed my blog! I had not realized how much I LOVE this trope before putting together this list. I could do several lists on this theme, but here I've picked just a few.
Hurt/Comfort
Sinking/Floating by @andithiel (966 words, rated T)
After the war, Harry once again dwells so much on dreams of the past and those he lost, that he forgets to live. Draco helps to remind him.
To Be Okay by @phoebe-delia (275 words, rated T)
When he was nine. “You’re okay, you’re safe, shhh sh sh,” Mother murmured as she held Draco close, wiping away his tears while the nightmare faded into wisps of a memory.
April by @toomuchplor (1,167 words, rated G)
Harry would never have expected it, before they started up together: that the angles and points of Malfoy could soften and coalesce into this gentle patient landing place.
Lay Your Hands by @shealwaysreads (3,022 words, rated E)
Sometimes saving a person is practical. Sometimes it’s something else altogether.
Just A Phone Call Away by @cavendishbutterfly (3,934 words, rated M)
Today’s the day: Harry’s getting over his ridiculous crush on Draco Malfoy. Even if Draco’s just invited himself over to wash Harry’s hair. In a very platonic way, obviously. Not intimate at all. They can just be friends, right?
As it was written by @cavendishbutterfly (4,772 words, rated E)
Harry keeps having nightmares after the war. Someone keeps saving him.
acts of service by @oknowkiss (5,638 words, rated E)
Harry's sick, and Draco just wants to take care of him, but they're two idiots in love, so it couldn't possibly be that easy.
ever-giving heart by @softlystarstruck (6,143 words, rated E)
Harry Potter doesn't ask for help, until he does– desperately, standing on Draco's doorstep.
Draco doesn't intend to get invested. Really.
Five Little Things by @bixgirl1 (6,197 words, rated T)
Harry was supposed to be good at this.
Still by alexmeg (7,388 words, not rated)
Dating Draco Malfoy, Harry thinks, will mean being at arms length outside of sex. No unnecessary physical contact or displays of affection. He wants him anyway, inexplicably. Perhaps that is exactly the kind of person he should be with, someone who will never need Harry to kiss him first, because Harry doesn't think he'll ever be that person.
The Exhale by spqr (7,506 words, rated T)
Hermione makes a soft, concerned sound. "Harry, look at this." She shows him an article with a photo, but the photo's not moving; it must be a Muggle newspaper. "NASA have just landed a rover on Mars. It's called Curiosity, and look, this is so--I don't know if it's sweet or sad, but--it's all alone out there, and they programmed it to sing itself Happy Birthday."
Nothing is wrong, but Harry starts crying.
but first, we fight by @nv-md (8,157 words, rated E)
Fighting with Draco Malfoy has never been quite this thrilling...or this frustrating. Harry's always horny, Draco's in denial, and there simply isn't enough time in the day to fight crime and watch your ex-archnemesis wash his arse.
Statues Crumble by @xanthippe74 and @fictional (13,683 words, rated T)
Between one war and the next, Draco has lost his parents, his home, and his menial Ministry job. All he has left is the secret (and anonymous) work he does to help Harry Potter overthrow another government—oh, and that statue he stole from the Ministry Atrium.
Counter-Curse by Justlikewriting (21,217 words, rated T)
When Harry took his first holiday in years, he decided to spend it house sitting Ron and Hermione’s flat in a Muggle part of London. It should have been easy enough - minding their plants, their Kneazle and their cat - and it would have been, if Harry hadn't seen someone blacking out in the flat opposite on his first day.
Of course, it was just his luck that the man in the other flat turned out to be none other than Draco Malfoy, Assistant Hotel Manager. Of a very Muggle hotel. Which also happened to serve the best cake. Ever.
And then there was this group called Counter-Curse, which was desperately trying to get Harry's attention as well.
Now I Know In Part by @dodgerkedavra (39,840 words, rated E)
Harry Potter is the savior of the Wizarding World. Draco Malfoy is a reformed Death Eater turned Ministry Curse-Breaker. Five years after the War, they're brought together by another mysterious curse.
Only this time, Harry's the one who needs saving.
It actually hurts by @parkkate (51,973 words, rated E)
For years, Draco has tried to avoid Harry Potter. He just knows he’ll make a fool out of himself if they spent more than five minutes in a room together. Unfortunately, Potter suddenly seems intent on becoming Draco’s friend, but neither of them are prepared for the inevitable consequences...
Your Soul Sat on My Lips by @m0srael (61,581 words, rated E)
Sometimes, two broken men can love one another whole again, and sometimes they can’t. That doesn’t mean they don’t deserve to try.

Saz's Sandman Masterpost
Hi there! It's about time I sorted out this blog and put all my Sandman posts in one place. If you're new here, I adore the Sandman in all its forms and my blog has become a bit of a love letter to this masterpiece of media lately. I mostly write meta analysis, love to discuss the work and the characters, and occassionally try my hand at running fandom events. My ask box is always open and I am always happy to answer any questions about Sandman so please do reach out to me if you like my meta :)
I welcome all fans of The Sandman here, though I can occassionally be NSFW so if that's not your jam make sure you have "NSFW" tag blacklisted. I'm a multishipper of the firm believe that Dream of the Endless should be passed around the other characters like a bowl of goth candy. I don't tolerate ship hate. It's all good here my loves.
I have a fairly decent tagging system. I tag all ships, characters, fanart, meta discussions, fanfiction, etc. You can find the list of common tags below.
My Meta Analysis
Masterpost of Dreamling meta - this is an eight part highly detailed analysis of Dreamling in the show and how it differs from the comic and audiobook, with a focus on how queercoding was used to emphasise a deeper relationship between Dream and Hob.
Hob Gadling - A Queer Romantic - a meta about unreliable narrators, Jim/Peggy and Hob's queer potential.
The Problem with Thessaly - an opinion piece on this problematic comic character and how the show could solve this issue.
Lucienne/Lucien - How the Librarian Became the Chief - a thorough analysis of Lucienne's character in the show and how she differs from the comic and makes everything so much more hopeful.
Tales in the Sand/Men of Good Fortune - How a small swap in story placement can drastically change the tone, and foreshadowing.
Dream of the Endless - A Romantic Fool - a deep analysis about Dream and his love of romance
How to Adapt Orpheus - Theories and discussions about how the show can navigate that particular element of the comics.
How to Adapt Orpheus x 2 - definitely worth reading all the discussions on this one as well.
Shipping comic!Morpheus and merging characters in the show - can I hear it for Morpheus/Pharamond PLEASE!
A Collaborative Post about Morpheus as the villain of the story
Could Morpheus ever be content to be single?
Morpheus and Sex - an analytical point of view
Obsessive Desire - Their complex feelings for Dream - an answered ask about the siblings relationship. (I have a draft meta in the works elaborating on this that I can't wait to finish).
Fandom Events
#Death Appreciation Week - To celebrate the release of Dead Boy Detectives which guest stars Death of the Endless, I ran a Death Appreciation Week where anyone could submit fanworks focused on Death. Follow the tag on my blog which also includes a lot of reblogged older works of Death, or follow the main tumblr tag to see just that work created for the event.
#Sandtober2023 - For inktober 2023, I ran a Sandman themed inktober event which was a huge success and inspired hundreds of amazing Sandman art pieces. You can check out the Sandtober2023 main tumblr tag here. I am probably going to run this event again in October 2024 so watch this space nearer the time for that! :)
If you have any ideas for Sandman fandom events you would like to see please send me a DM.
General Blog Tags
I have a relatively consistent tagging system on my blog so to cover the main ones:
#The Sandman - literally every post about the Sandman will include this tag, so if you are a loyal mutual from fandoms past and you want to block this tag you won't see me cluttering up your feed with Sandman stuff (and thank you for still following me even if you're not a Sandman fan!)
#Dreamling - tag for the Morpheus x Hob Gadling fandom ship. I will tag all things Dreamling - fanart, fanfics, fan theories, crack posts, gifsets etc.
#Sandman Meta - any analysis about Sandman will be tagged with this. This includes both my own analysis and reblogged analysis.
#Sandman Comic Spoilers - I tag for any posts that include Sandman story information not yet revealled in the show. In case there is anyone left on Tumblr who hasn't already been spoiled for this 30 year old comic story.
Character Tags - I generally tag for any characters I reblog or post about. So if you ever want to search for posts about a specific character, you can just find the character tag in my blog. For example #Dream of the Endless or #Johanna Constantine
Ship tags - like with character tags, I always tag fandom ships. Usually by the most popular fandom name for them. #morphanna #Gaultienne
Other fandoms - I will also always tag other fandoms. I have a very long running #destiel tag, I also tag for #good omens and #ineffable husbands and I will always tag the show name, abbreviation, and ship names for any other fandoms.
Other tags - I do try to tag for content warnings where I can, but usually only extreme things. Then again, it is rare for me to post about triggering content. Even squicky content is unlikely to be found on my blog. If you ever come across something on my blog that you feel isn't tagged appropriately please just DM me and I will correct that.
A bit about me
If my blog intro hasn't covered it so far let me clarify here. I am an adult, in my 30s and have never stopped being a passionate fan about the things I love. You don't stop loving things when you hit a certain age, you just find you have less time to devote to your hobbies because of work. I am a professional with a full time job, I come here to relax and unwind. I have been in fandom far too long to be remotely interested in fandom drama. Ship wars do not interest me. Weird anti-sex anti-kink purity policing has no power here. I am fiercely anti-censorship. If I hear the word "proship" in a negative sense I will roll my eyes and assume you are a minor who has been horribly mislead by puritanicals. I don't tolerate hate, accusational bullshit, bullying behaviour, cult-like fandom worship, or any form of fandom policing. I have no time for "big name fans" and the culture around them. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt and the trauma. Learn your fandom history lest you be doomed to repeat it.
I do not engage in performative social justice. I have my beliefs, my politics, and they generally revolve around the concept that people should be fucking decent human beings and let people be free to live as they choose. Don't come at me for not yelling about the next big world ending event. The world is always ending, people are always dying, there is always a genocide happening, its fucking exhausting. Just do what you can in your actual lives, donate where you can manage, provide support to those in need, and vote out the bastards who fucked it all up.
If you've read this far and are still here welcome! I hope you love my blog and want to be fandom friends. Come send me an ask, a DM, reply to my posts, engage with my meta, and just generally scream at me about Sandman. I always love it when people scream at me about Sandman. :)

Moon Knight Fic Recs
18+ as some content can hold dark themes/smut | remember to read and respect all the blogs rules/boundaries
Steven Grant:
@marc-spectorr: Somewhere Only We Know
You meet Steven at your job as a librarian, a perfect beginning to your story.
This one's so soft, timid Steven has my heart. Although one of my favoruites, the author has multiple other stories you should check out, especially if you're a big Oscar Isaac fan.
@hellurbba: Please Notice
reader thinks she has no chance of Steven liking her after hearing about his date, without realizing all of the things he seems to notice about her, until she gets the help from donna of all people.
This one has an angstier ending but part two makes it soft again. A perfect hurt/comfort fic with a small feature of Marc.
@silversweetpea: Where it Starts
You aren't sure how long it took you to fall in love with Steven Grant, you just know that you do.
This ones so unbelievably soft. Fair warning it's so soft it made me tear up a bit. Author did wonderful with how they wrote Steven, it's so endearing.
@dont-feel-so-good-peter: Sticky Note Mishap
Stevens favourite part of the day is getting a note from you each morning telling him how much you love him. One day you accidentally forget to leave a note and Steven begins to overthink.
Hurt/comfort, miscommunication, insecure Steven. Don't worry, a very fluffy ending. Comedic add-ons from Jake and Khonshu. I really loved this one and I'm excited to see what else the author writes.
Marc Spector:
@mrsknightt: Flowers
you rarely fought, but when you did it got pretty bad.
I feel like hurt/comfort is Marc's genre, it's just what suits his character best. The author portrayed that perfectly here.
Jake Lockley
@obnoxioussmiley: Seeing Red
After loving you in the shadows of Marc and Steven, Jake finally shows himself to protect you.
Protective Jake. Protective Jake. Protective Jake. Need I say more? This author has some amazing angst stories I also recommend.
All Three:
@softlyspectorctor: Moon Struck
Steven asks you out, Marc falls in love, Jake joins soon after
A perfect mix of Steven's softness and Marc's angst. I love this series and each bonus content the author adds never fails to brighten my day. I highly recommend you check out this authors talented work and all the series' little add-ons.
More to be added soon.
Have any suggestions? let me know in the comments or in an ask. I love finding new stories to spread and to give the authors some love.

Hi I dont really remember your ocs but I really want to meet them! Who is right now on the radar? or maybe who is your fave? can you tell me something about them in a few sentences?
hiii! so there's a couple groups of them:
saints for girls: my fake little emo band, they have the most information publicly available about them: if you check out the blog and take the "which character are you" quiz, they have little descriptions at the end :)
my muses' muse: this is the story of two of my characters, aster blake and lilah medina. aster is a horror-obsessed painter in their late 20s. they're generally pretty anxious, not very talkative, and they don't trust very easily. most of their paintings stem from dreams, most of which are about their own death (very cute, very fun). lilah is a 35* year old multidisciplinary artist, she does a fair amount of painting + printmaking + drawing. she's much more charismatic than aster, but she's EXTREMELY guarded around people, particularly about her past. both of them are very stubborn and nosy about the people around them (though aster hates to admit it; lilah has come to terms with this lol). the two of them meet through an artist residency at the fischer house, named after lewis fischer, a beloved maritime printmaker who disappeared very suddenly one night before his final exhibition, and is presumed dead at this point. also lilah's a vampire <3
signals: jeanne, my beloved <3 she's the main character, very imaginative and sensitive, desperately wants love and affection but doesn't know how to actually get it from the people in her life, so she goes inside her own head instead. she wears headphones constantly for this reason (+ also i think she has pretty bad misophonia), which is how she initially hears God trying to talk to her
nimo, the techxorcist: i haven't actually finished a drawing of them, which is sick and twisted honestly, but they're in an alternate reality sci-fi future where generally society has gone really futuristic, but because of how much companies and governments use the new stuff to monitor and control people, there's a growing population that's gone back to using early internet era tech...which is now super haunted. for whatever reason, nimo can see and commune with the tech ghosts/spirits/demons, and so they travel around doing that! personality wise though theyre pretty standoffish, honestly they don't like people that much generally which is why they're so gravitated toward the tech LOL. they're also very imaginative though, they're able to problemsolve their way out of almost everything. almost nocturnal. very pale because they don't go outside a lot.
it ends with august: this story has been like assembled and taken apart like four times now so i don''t wanna commit to anything super concrete just yet 😭 but, right now, the titular august is an anxious mess to be honest (kind of a theme among my people i guess sldfslfk). he comes from a family of grifters (mainly his dad and grandfather) who fake spiritual and psychic powers and make their money by selling like, self help books and counseling sessions and that sort of thing. august, however, DOES actually have some sort of psychic powers, growing stronger by the day without him doing anything or wanting them (its almost like a parasitic thing, it becomes unclear as to who is actually controlling who). right nowww the actual story "it ends with august" takes place when august is 27, he went to college majoring in english + is now a librarian in a moderately big city, but has to go back to his small coastal home town because of some psychic shenanigans. lucky's also a pretty big part of the story, he reads as a sterotypical jock-y guy on first meeting, but he has a lot more going on. he went to college through a football scholarship, but had a career-ending injury in his senior year, and had to go back to the small town ever since. lucky + august went to school together, and were pretty good friends until Something Happened, after which they became really estranged...but because they both end up back home, they start being in each others orbits again and well...yknow
those are the main ones! i'm working on some others, too, mainly for the graveyard shift, but it's so not concrete at the moment that i can't even rly talk about them yet LOL. my favorites tend to change from month to month, although typing all these descriptions out made me realize how much i miss august and the techxorcist, so i might need to make art for both of them and their stories soon 😭
#asks#my ocs#saints for girls#my muses muse#signals#the techxorcist#it ends with august#<- i Just realize how close that is to a c*ll**n h**v*r book title so.. might change with to something else SLDKFJ#ref#i have also drawn most of these people--you can find scattered drawings of them on my bloggg

Hello, my name is Qwill, and I use any pronouns.
I've recently had quite the craving for hanahaki disease au roleplays. I'm not picky as far as characters go, I have two main ones I'd like to use right now that my roleplay partner can choose from. They're all very complicated, so I am going to keep their descriptions brief.
Avemour - A 7 foot tall fantasy creature of mixed heritage, serves as the oldest princen of an empire. They use any pronouns with no preference. He's pan and demi, so any romance would need to be built up for a bit before the love and disease could take hold. Avemour is very heavily traumatized in their backstory, with themes of cannibalism, child abuse, murder, and more. Despite this, or more accurately because of it, they are actually quite a sweetheart, and value others more than anything. They have trust issues though.
Syncline - A half human, half demon librarian. They collect books from all sorts of cultures, human, monster, and everything in between. They identify as non binary, and are bisexual with a slight male preference. Do not let this discourage female characters, though! Syncline is very reserved for the most part and quite shy, save for when the topic is books or languages or when talking to a close friend. Syncline is very affectionate with said close friends, and would be very affectionate with a love interest as well.
I roleplay direct on Tumblr, through dms or posts I don't mind. I have a separate blog for Avemour ( @falseangelsflair ) but would use my main for Syncline.
Please reblog this post with a statement of interest or directly message @sir-qwillian-ferne / @falseangelsflair to answer this posting.

"This is real, this is me" - Demi Lovato, at some point back in the 2000s
TL;DR: Hi, my name is Laura and this is my personal blog. I'm Christian and vocal about it, we can talk about it if you want. I'm Brazilian and bilingual and so is this blog. I talk a lot so my posts will be often lengthy; I'm a librarian and a writer so I'll be posting about things around these themes - info science, organization, book-related, writing, short stories, OCs… I have a lot of interests ranging from Ts4, BG3 to kpop and poetry so expect those too. I'm an insecure artist, looking for a place to call mine, basically. More info bellow the cut.
It's probably the millionth time I try to kick start this blog, but anyway
Hi everyone! My name is Laura and this is my personal blog. Before anything, lemme present myself.
First of all, I'm Christian. I think it's important to clarify this right off the top so we're clear on how this blog goes and how I go. I'm Christian and really value my faith, I'm rather vocal about it, so that's within basically everything I do. I'm also always avaiable to talk about it to curious people or fellow Christians wanting to talk. Hit me up if you feel like it ✨
I do not enjoy this bit but, if things get rather hostile or aggressive, I'm unfollowing/blocking and ask you do the same bc there's no need to keep annoying ourselves. Jesus said to turn the other cheek, not to become a doormat so we'll keep things respectful and friendly as to not get into heated arguments ok? Ok.
With that on the clear, here's other things for you to know me: I'm Brazilian! And living in Brazil (for now). I speak Portuguese as a first language, and English as a second - and do risk myself at Spanish sometimes, and I'm learning Korean, so: this is a bilingual and at times multilingual blog. THOUGH I will be speaking English most of the time. That's what most people speak around here, right, so let's go, bora pra cima Brasil 🥳
⚠️This is a warning⚠️ please be noted that I talk a lot. I know I do. I talk way too much in person and type even more, so please be WARNED that my texts (this bio included!) will more often than not be lengthy. I apologize but also don't. That's it.
Hmmm, what else? Oh Yeah Well
I'm a Librarian! And a writer! I have an insane amount of projects going on now (you can call me a workaholic lol). I'm an enthusiast for Library Sciences and topics related to information, organization, books! Everything Info Science is on my radar, so I'll be probably talking about that or linking my other blog with texts about that. Feel free (and please do) to ask me about those things!
As for the Writer part, I'm a fantasy writer, with about 3 to 4 different sagas going on inside my head and very little written about them 🤡 I'm trying to get better at that as to be able to actually have something to show people rather than loose drafts. I'm also an enthusiast for short stories so I'll be eventually posting drabbles about random themes!
That's actually the whole point of this blog, writing.
Other interests and possible themes to be happening here are related to:
The Sims 4 (hi Simblr ^^); I do play this too often and will be rambling about my Sims OCs;
Baldur's Gate 3 [screams]; I am OBSESSED with this game but only get to play it when I go to my bestie's place, so not that many posts about it BUT I WILL DEFINITELY BE TALKING ABOUT ASTARION. No, I'm not a weirdo Astarion Girlfriend, I'm a normal person;
Cats. I love cats, I have cats, I'm obsessed with cats;
Poetry; I take my chance at those very rarely but I do;
Super Junior and other kpop subjects; 🤩 I'm ELF, yeah, I did write a handful of fanfics about SJ so I'll link them at my catalog, though I don't write those anymore. I do talk about them tho;
Hm, idk, the color blue, art, sea and storms (huge fan of those), random reblogs about aesthetic stuff, photography, museums, wtv. If you can't tell I have major hyperfixes in random things.
I do think of myself as an artist and I've been considering and not doing things like this blog for way too long. This is my try at making it work. I do write and post on other platforms (you can navigate through them on the buttons on the top of my blog - on desktop view - or on the links on my soon to be pinned post) but they don't usually take lengthy (I really like this word) posts like Tumblr can so HERE AM I.
I hope to find my people around here.
This is a very quick shortened bio of mine (believe me), ask me questions if you want to, my askbox 📫 is always open. And please remember: internet is just a slice of someone's life so don't go around making assumptions.
ー L

C for the alphabet soup ask ? :)
Thanks for the ask! :3c for my sanity sake I’ll be sticking with my twst ocs, though I’ve also included my wip babies (and breaking my own rules of reserving my wna girls for my wna blog bc i don’t talk about them enough www)
Cetus Larimar
3rd year in Octavinelle and I made him only bc i wanted a whale shark merfolk oc. He’s a big boi and a little pookie. I’m not sure if I ever posted his UM but he does have one according to my drafts, it’s just nameless bc I couldn’t think of a name yet.
Shi Canlong
3rd year of my WIP fandorm Qilin, was the former dorm head until Yanque (2nd year, current dorm head) fought him for the position and won. He’s adopted and raised in a strict family so he’s actually pretty hard-working, he’s just also an arrogant lil shit (lol). I like to think of him as a bit of an honest guy
Calla Megrez
2nd year in Monarchia WNA (Az’s fanschool). I ended up developing her quite a bit in terms of trivia because it was really fun to do a “wild child” character. I also did a Black Clover AU for her because of it (the “wild child” aspect) since hierarchy and social class is a major theme in Black Clover, I thought it would be interesting to see how someone who’s generally rather removed from such social classes (due to being a bit of a societal outcast) would function.
Celestia Vikare
1st year WIP in Kriegskald and based off of Icarus! She’s a child genius who got into WNA early (13) and is basically a lil shit www a very typical ore-sama type character who gets super defensive when criticised but if you praise her it’ll go straight to her head (lol). She just does whatever she wants so she’s always getting in trouble
Clair Moreau
Vice dorm head of Lyrania (my fanschool WOA) and based off of the violin princess from Music Land. He’s canonically shipped with Lula (dorm head and based off of the alto saxophone prince) and is gnc. He’s generally pretty reserved but also a bit of a violin/strings instrument freak (specifically the actual strings. He likes pressing on those). I think I named him after the Clair de Lune?
Calixto Fynderne
2nd year based off of Narcissus, originally for Key’s fanschool PSU but like idk what to do with him lol, he’s neighbours with Lauren (WNA girl based off of Echo) and was her first crush but didn’t work out. Since most of his parasocial fans are girls his age, he’s not very good with women. His favourite food is also not disclosed for related reasons. He’s an awkward kid who loves himself much more than others, but you just need a lot of patience and maybe a bit of masochism to get him to open up www
Cosmo Dorado
1st year for Lizz’s fanschool DIE and based off of the Grizzly Gulch in HK Disneyland. He’s a very happy-go-lucky (emphasis on lucky) kid and honestly I almost had Komaeda in mind while I was making him because his talent is luck (except he doesn’t have the luck cycle that Komaeda does, he’s more like Naegi, though I also based him off of Uno from Nanbaka and unintentionally Orias from Iruma). Another problematic kid that does whatever tf he wants, but he looks up to the dorm head :3c
Claude Avenant
Music teacher and residential manipulative hag of NRC based off of Maestro Forte. Formerly a bigshot in classical music but retired and currently teaching as a bit of a hobby. I think I gave him a cane because Maestro Forte as an organ is bolted to the wall, so a human twisted from him would probably have mobility issues? It probably would have made more sense to make him paralysed to some extent but Maestro Forte is basically part of the room he was in because of all the stuff that’s connected so like???? The only thing that moves is his face and keys???? I don’t know man
Callista Lebeau
Librarian/Teacher at WNA and based off of Belle/Beauty (both Disney and original version). I think I had something I wanted to plan between her and Vargas due to their inspos but it’s been so long I forgor. According to age-old discord messages her sisters are like, guest teachers at WNA from time to time because ✨plot devices✨

GET TO KNOW THE WRITER
BOLD OR COLORIZE WHAT ALWAYS APPLIES TO YOU, ITALICIZE WHAT SOMETIMES APPLIES TO YOU, AND STRIKE THROUGH WHAT WILL NEVER APPLY TO YOU.
I RUN: lots of blogs || a few blogs || just this one Technically I have four... Riley answers when he does. Lugh is usually too busy being a sun god, and Quothe is an acquired taste {request only}
I FOLLOW BACK: muses in the same fandom || muses /blogs who interest me || fandomless muses || friends of mutuals || only members of a closed rp group || everyone
I AM ACTIVE: more days than not || as often as not || some days here and there || depending on my school schedule || rarely || I'm often lurking even if I seem inactive I work the middle days of the week as a librarian and try to put things in the queue for those days. I do my best to be available. Speed/activity =/= my interest in writing with you.
I LIKE TO WRITE THESE THEMES: fluff || angst || action || casual interactions || intense interactions ||crack || first meetings || platonic rp || shipping / romantic rp || threads || ask memes || prompts
Crack is often reserved as part of conversations in dms/discords. As a joke. Sometimes it will appear on the dash with my nearest and dearest. Besides that, I am open to literally just about anything/any time/any genre/anywhen. If Beth doesn't fit, I'll make a new version of her.
I PREFER ROLEPLAYS THAT ARE: one-liners || single-para threads || mutli para threads || novella || different lengths depending on my mood I am a wordy bitch and I have proven to myself that I cannot stfu.
FOR SHIPPING, I AM: {selectively } multiship || single ship || poly ship || no ship || plotted ships only || open to new ships || not looking for new ships || mostly or exclusively looking for high engagement ship partners || mostly or exclusively looking for casual or low engagement ship partners || not picky about ships || somewhat picky about ships || extremely picky about ships Who doesn't like shipping? That being said, I like them to develop organically. I do not know how the story will go when they meet. She will not instantly fall in love regardless of the other muse, and if the spark of connection isn't there, if she doesn't feel like she *knows* someone, then it is not happening. No matter how pretty your muse is or who they might be in the grand scheme. She might develop a squish, one sided. She might end up somewhere on the q-platonic scale. But mostly, she is a soft and heartbroken thing who doesn't want to be hurt any more.
I LIKE TO PLOT: everything || most interactions || some interactions || first interactions || nothing || threads || everything except memes and crack || ships || family relationships || history / backstory for our muses
TALK TO ME OUT OF CHARACTER: anytime || to plot || if you're confused or have questions in general || to remind me to reply || sparingly || only if it's really important
I GIVE ALTERNATIVE CONTACT METHODS (discord / social media) TO: friends || mutuals || anyone who asks || people i've spent a lot of time talking to already || ship partners || members of a certain rp group || no one

What about (4), (8), (9), (15), (17)? (If it's okay, ofc)
(36.4) Have you by any chance read the book The Grey house (Дом в котором)?
(36) How do you feel about the fact that your readers may be younger? Does the Internet make a comfortable communication zone for you?
Hope it's not too much, lol
Prepare for a long post!
(4) What is your favorite book? A tricky question! It's difficult to name just ONE favorite book, but if I have to pick, I say, "Neuromancer" by William Gibson.
(8) What is your dream job? Librarian. Back in high school I spent one summer working part-time in a city library. I was a bookish nerdy teenager, and I thought that I found Heaven. I still wish I could work in a library, but alas, it doesn't pay well.
(9) What do you consider your biggest accomplishment? Well.. that I'm still alive and kicking)
Maybe, that I managed to… not exactly overcome but tame my anxiety disorder and depression, and those bastards don't make my life miserable anymore. Most of the time.
(15) Describe yourself in one sentence. Friendly introvert neighbor.
(17) What is something you're really good at? I wish I could say writing! But there's still a lot for me to learn in this craft. To be serious, listening to others. At least, my friends say so.
(36.4) Have you by any chance read the book The Grey house (Дом в котором)? I have! I didn't finish it though, at some moment I realized that I got lost in the plot of the book, and I had no idea what was going on there. Sometimes I think about re-reading it. I liked its vibe.
(36) How do you feel about the fact that your readers may be younger? Does the Internet make a comfortable communication zone for you? It feels… a little weird sometimes. I try to make my creative work, my blog suitable for general audience or at least for teen and up (if we use the AO3 rating system), and when it comes to mature themes, I put the respective warnings and tags - it is my responsibility as an author, but the rest is at readers' discretion. As for the second part of your question, most of the time it does, but it's due to the fact that I'm not an active user.

Archivists on the Issues: Classified Records, Archives, and Fictional Depictions [Part 2]
Archivists on the Issues is a forum for archivists to discuss the issues we are facing today. Today’s post comes from Burkely Hermann (me), Metadata Librarian for the National Security Archive and current I&A Blog Coordinator. There will be spoilers for each of the books, animated series, films, and other media he will be discussing. This was originally published on February 7, 2023 on the Issues & Advocacy WordPress blog.
continued from part 1
In the episode "The Underground Tennis Tournament: The Campbelldon", Loid examines a file of his target, a man named Cavi Campbell, who has a painting in the basement of his mansion. As the story goes, the painting was originally owned by a general who had compiled a dossier of explosive top secret information which could tip the scales and cause possible cause military conflict if revealed, and the painting has a code revealing the dossier's location.
Classified records have often been depicted in popular culture. For instance, there is an episode of The Crown about classified records showing Duke Edward VIII collaborating with Nazis. Such records are also major part of the Spy x Family series. The protagonist, Twilight (voiced by Takuya Eguchi), poses as a father named Loid Forger, with a wife and child. He is tasked with a secret mission to keep two countries from beginning a war. As a result, he is often passed information through a network of informants, spies, and others, or is given mission briefings by dedicated agents. The information he receives often includes classified records. Another pertinent example is the 13-episode anime, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet. In one episode, "Deep Sea Secret", the protagonist, Ledo (voiced by Kaito Ishikawa), demands declassification of the record. What he learns causes an epiphany. It results in him questioning what he thought about the world and his life's purpose, causing a mental breakdown of sorts.
There are other examples, apart from the tongue-and-cheek U.S. Navy recording studio named "Classified Records" in The Simpsons, which included subliminal messages in their songs which encouraged people to join the Navy. For instance, classified archives of the CIA are shown in an episode of the TV series, Alias. Furthermore, classified, and restricted, records are a major part of the animated adventure series, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, which has many archivy themes. In one episode, Mara, the previous She-Ra, learns that the Heart of Etheria project is classified, with Light Hope worrying about information being accidentally shared with Madame Razz. In many others, records are only accessible when specific words are spoken, or specific people are detected by computer systems. The same could be said about the records inside the data archives of the World Organization Of Human Protection which is shown in the Totally Spies! episode "The Yuck Factor", or the "healing center" for Pearls known as The Reef, which is a structure used to create, repair, or modify Pearls, shown in the Steven Universe Future episode "Volleyball". Both undoubtedly contain restricted or classified records.
In Star Wars Rebels and Star Wars: The Clone Wars, two animated series, there are records which can only be accessed through magic or other means. As such, they are classified, as a result. Accessing secret, and classified, records is a major plot point for live-action films such as Sneakers (1992), The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (2005), and My Fellow Americans (1996). In other cases, like in Joker (2009), the records are even stolen. In the latter film, the records clerk is implied as an impediment to protagonist Arthur Fleck, as are the bureaucratic requirements which require a signature from Fleck's mother, before he can take the file.
Samantha "Sam" Cross, a certified archivist who was part of the SAA Issues & Advocacy News Monitoring Team in 2018, has highlighted this on her blog, Pop Archives. She notes Carol Danvers (later becoming Captain Marvel) examining likely classified information in Captain Marvel and Loki trying to use his manipulation and charm in the Loki TV series to get classified files from a female character credited as an archivist. She also writes about a character in the Danganronpa game, Byakuya, who "read and study the classified information" in an archives-like room and states that many of the documents shown in Federal Bureau of Control, in the video game Control, are redacted, and classified. [7]
Other pop cultural critics in the library and information field note other examples. For instance, librarian Jennifer Snoek-Brown, known as the creator of the site Reel Librarians and real-life librarian at Tacoma Community College, noted classified records featured in Rollerball (1975), Soylent Green (1973), and likely ones in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011). [8] Elsewhere on her blog, she pointed out similar themes in Mercury Rising (1998) and WarGames (1983).
The over twenty popular culture examples described in this post only scratch the surface. There are as undoubtedly many more films, comics, and series which featured classified or restricted records. The examples noted in this article do not always feature archives, however, as some creators confuse archives with libraries. To add insult to injury, archivists are often not present, resulting in the characters, who have no archival training, to go through the records themselves. Very few depictions in popular culture reflect the current reality of classified records within archives. Hopefully, this changes in the future.

@bunny-extract uwu thanks for the tag <3
Last song: Bigmouth Strikes Again by The Smiths has been my on-repeat writing song for the past couple days. I fucking adore 'The Queen is Dead' as an album. Cemetry Gates is one of my favourite songs.
Favorite color: Contrary to what my blog theme might lead you to think, it's actually red.
Currently watching: Hellsing Ultimate - I was big into the original Hellsing as a child, but never gave Ultimate a shot. Big mistake on my part, this shit KNOCKS!
Last movie: Reservoir Dogs. I don't care much for Tarantino, but fucking love the way that little twink whimpers while bleeding all over himself. *chef's kiss*.
Currently reading: uGH the list is fucking huge (stereotypical librarian, what can I say) but I'll give you a couple: Thirteen Storeys - Johnathan Sims, The Absolutist - John Boyne, and The Sleeping Car Porter by Suzette Mayr
Sweet/spicy/savory: SPICY. MAKE ME SUFFER
Relationship: Super single, super lonely, but also really not looking to change that any time soon.
Current obsession: Aside from COD? Baldur's Gate 3 and Fear and Hunger have me DEEPLY in their grip.
Last thing I googled: 'why shoulder pain after laparoscopy?' Turns out it's because they have to inflate your abdomen with gas to do the laparoscopy, and when they're done, any residual gas can irritate the phrenic nerve in your abdomen which can cause referred pain in your shoulder because the nerves from your shoulders and phrenic nerve all use the same track to get to the brain! I didn't have a laparoscopy, I just thought shoulder pain was a weird symptom for a surgery involving needles in your stomach and got curious.
Currently working on: Some 141+/reader, Graves/reader, that one Slavation-esque dark fic...the usual :)
Tagging: Anyone who wants to do this! I'd love to hear about your lives too! Tell me all the things please!

can we know more abt Ayo pls.... what is his Deal. what is his Job. how does he know Lucas? what's going on with their relationship?
YES
Funfact he’s one of my OLDERRR oc guys.. like. Me in my batim ask blog days old. His original look doodad thingy is on the same canvas I first drew Pierre!! And Adalene!! And Aoife!! And even Sébastien!!!!!!! There were others on there too but like this was the first time I even CAME UP with these guys. So they are OLD old <3
Ever since day one, in my head, I was able to visualize my boys Ayo an Lucas and Adalene as like. A triad with shenanigans. Funnily they were always tied in with Sébastien too, if u were to go DEEP into the art tag, like 2019, you’d see me trying to draw them and attempting to figure out a dynamic with Sébastien <3
They used to be like a generic love triangle thing, and that’s probably why they disappeared for so long LMAO I was just NOT interested in that at all </3 but NOW they’re cooler. And look better <3
So anyways back to answering what you asked LMAO he works as a librarian at a community college! He likes reading and helpin people with printers and giving them directions or book recommendations, he just likes to help people out <3 he is workin there part time as a student and he goes to class when he ain’t workin durin the week. He is very himbo esq cus like he isn’t stupid at all, he’s jus a bit ditzy <3 you’ll ask where one specific book is and he’ll tell you but then ALSO here’s related readings and you look like you’d like this story from this genre and also the theatre departments puttin on a play that’s in the same vein as that book you needed OH AND- Also, he’ll be able to break down the themes and meaning behind entire novels but he does NOT know how to use a semicolon
Him an Lucas are childhood buds!! They’d help each other out with homework cus Ayo can’t write essays with good grammar and Lucas has no idea what even goes into an essay to make it long
Their relationship is very much “we’re pretty much dating except for the fact we aren’t dating” like they go on dates (hangout dates) and kiss each other (as good buds do) and sleep together (we’re just really close) like neither of them realize really that what they have is a romance cus they’ve just always been like that. I wouldn’t call it friends with benefits, but that’s only cus there isn’t a separation between their friendship and romance. They’re just, ✨ together ✨
ALSO CUS I REMEMBERED I SAVED THE PUCS LMAO but here’s his design through the years! (This is just like. Major design changes from 2017 to now)
#ask#about my ocs#I have a voiceclaim song for him that haunts my brain cus it’s catchy and the cadence an sound and subject matter is there <3#if u wanna here I’ll share in a separate thing. cus this post is long as hell and I don’t wanna get off track more than I have already LMAO#*hear. if u wanna hear

Flowers of Love Part 2
Morpheus returns but what he finds left is worse than he ever experienced. (Changed some dialogue and Dream likes to blame himself throughout)
I wanna thank everyone who liked, commented and reblogged the first part. I really didn't expect it. When I announced it only 29 ish people liked and most of the time the fic will get less likes than the announcement blog but I’m extremely glad it did so well. So less talking more of the story. ( One person saw the Star Wars inspiration in part 1 :) So Anakin and Padme's theme is now Morpheus and Y/N’s)
Tags: @itshamleth, @khaleesihavilliard, @luula , @theamuz , @lilithskywalker, @hereforsmutbcicantgetenough, @lestaikkeullsokka, @bittybuttersliceontoast, @lilotter18
Across The Stars,
Part0 part1
106 years that’s how long Morpheus was locked up, and since he couldn't punish Burgess himself he settled for his son Alex. He might not have been as bad as his father but he shot Jesseym, Alex got off easy in Morpheus's mind, he could have done worse but he didn't. When Morpheus found himself back in the dreaming and was met with Lucienne he never felt happier,” My Lord your home” she said happily helping him up, but once he saw what was left of the dreaming his heart clenched,” What happened here?” he asked,” My Lord, you are the dreaming and the dreaming is you since you were gone for this long everything started to decay. Lady Y/N-”,” Is she alright? She is safe?” Morpheus asked cutting the librarian off, she looked at the ground not able to look him in the eyes,” Lucienne, where Y/N, how is the baby?” he said firmly, concern filling his body at her quietness,” It’s complicated” she said.
Morpheus stroked your cheek, you were cold just like him,” All of this because of me?” he said holding back tears,” I killed her” he said softly,” She’s not dead sir-”,” but she's isn't alive either and all because I was captured by some ameture magic uses” he snapped,” All you need is your tools to wake her up, that's what your sister said” she said making Morpheus screw his eyes shut,” If only it would be that easy Lucienne” he said,” What do you mean sir?”,” My tools, they have been taken from me by my captors but that imbecile got them stole from him” he said angrily clenching his fist,” So until you found them-”,” Y/N remains like this unforutanlly... Lucienne, could you please leave me alone for a moment?” she nodded and walked away,” My love, I’m sorry for leaving” he said kneeling down beside you,” I promise to wake you the second I have my tools. I then will never leave you alone again, during my capture, there wasn't one minute of which I wasn't thinking of you or our child” he got back up and placed a kiss on your forehead. He looked around, Fidler green isn't like it used to be, everything is dead, ironic perhaps. The flowers in your hair were still fresh thanks to Lucienne perhaps, Morpheus noticed the purple flower in your hands, the tibouchina. “ Once you are awake my love, I grow you an even bigger garden than you had, and it will be filled with flowers which remind me of you,” he said, he gave you one last kiss before joining Lucienne.
“Where is my child, you said it survived”,” They did my Lord” Lucienne smiled,” They? Twins?” he said a smile forming on his lips,” Cain and Abel have been taking care of them since their birth. I paid them a visit once in a while,” she said,” How old are they?” Morpheus asked,” Come with me and you see”.
Gregory was using his snout to hit the ball toward the young child making him giggle,” Again, Gregory” Atlas giggled throwing the ball towards the Gargoyle who caught it in his mouth, this made the boy giggle,” Uncle Cain, did you see that?” the half endless asked,” I sure did Atlas, don't dirty yourself, dinner is nearly ready” Cain said sweeping away a broken pot which Gregory broke while playing with the boy. Meanwhile, Abel was taking care of Althea, the youngest of the twin was helping him cook for dinner, she was standing on a small stool helping Abel peel the vegetables. Both twins look like perfect mixtures of both of you, but their eyes are clearly like their father's. A stormy sky with stars peaking through the clouds.
Gregory slightly nudged Atlas with his snout making him fall on his butt, Cain's eyes snapped towards it ready to scold Gregory for making Atlas cry but a cry never left the boy's lips. Instead, the boy was staring off into the distance,” Atlas, is everything okay?” he asked pushing Gregory away gently as he tried to nudge the boy again,” I thought I saw Lucienne with a strange man” he said as Cain pulled him up, brushing dirty of his pants,” Lucienne, huh? She properly just wanted to check up on you and Althea” he said,” But whose the strange man?” he asked, Cain shrugged,” Let’s see if Althea and Abel finished dinner” he said pushing the boy into the house who was still looking behind at the spot where he saw Lucienne and Morpheus.
“ My Lord, why didn't you greet them, Atlas was right there,” Lucienne said trying to keep up with Morpheus's large steps,” And how should I explain my absence? How I can't free their mother from her slumber. I have failed once again as a parent,” he said holding back tears,” You haven't even mentioned their ages. They are still young kids, you didn't miss that much in their lives-”,” Besides their first words, them taking their first steps, their births. Do you want me to go on? I am glad that they haven't aged much for whatever reason but-”,” But what?” Lucienne said,” I won't meet them until I have Y/N back at my side, I want them to meet us together,” he said making Lucienne sigh,” Very well. How do you want to start the search for your tools?”,” The Fates”.
After a couple more discussions Morpheus and Lucienne made their way back towards Cain and Abel but not for the twins but for Gregory. Morpheus stands by his discussion on wanting to wait until your back to meet the twins,” Lord Morpheus, your back” Abel said happily,” I didn't have any doubt in that” Cain said wary,” Are you here to see your children? They would be delighted, they are in the House of secrets playing I could-”,” I’m here to ask you back for something I gave you long ago” he cut Abel off,” So you aren't here for the kids?” Cain asked trying not to sound offended,” Not until y/n is back,” he said trying to keep his voice calm,” Well what do you want Lord Morpheus?”
“What should we tell the twins? They love Gregory” Cain said getting angry,” They will understand one day,” Morpheus said,” It’s for the sake of the Dreaming” Morpheus added,” We weren't one who vanished for a century, Lady Y/N is dead because of you,” Cain said making Morpheus clench his fist, anger started to build inside of the dream lord,” Cain, watch your tongue,” Lucienne said,” Why? For over 100 years we had basically gaslighted the twins about your whereabouts. The twins are young due to their unique genetics but they are much wiser than we think, they know that their father abandoned them-”,” Cain, Lord Morpheus didn't abandon them, there is probably a reason for his long absence” Abel tried to reason with brother,” I can't watch this, I will be with the twins. Something he should be doing” Cain said storming off.
“Lord Morpheus are you alright?” Lucienne asked as they were walking away from Cain and Abel,” He is right, it’s all my fault. If I wasn't captured Y/N and I would be raising the twins. They could be playing in the gardens, while we were watching them, Y/N in my arms. She is my heart Lucienne and I will get her back, no matter the cause” Morpheus said,” I know you will and I will be here every step of the way” Lucienne smiled,” Like you were for Y/N?” the question caught her off guard,” She’s my Lady, of course, I stood beside her. She can be quite stubborn like you, maybe that's why the two of you lasted so long” she smiled at the end,” Lady Death called you soulmates, it was hard to see an Endless having a human soulmate but I agree. Love like the two of you share is something you don't see every day. She's unlike any other lover you had”,” She is, that’s why I will do anything to bring her back. Even if it means going to corners of heaven and hell”,” Well the fates did say your helm in hell” she said half-jokingly, Morpheus didn't say anything to acknowledge the irony bud just said,” This Joana Constantine if she is anything like her ancestor could be useful”.
Finding Joana Constantine was easy but getting her help was a different story, she left him in a church where she excised a demon, who could have helped him find his helm. Now he is standing in a park when a raven lands in front of him,” I thought I told you to leave” he said slightly annoyed,” I know but the boss lady-”,” Lucienne is not your Master”,” She told me you would say that” he said,” Do you know who I am?”,” Not exactly but the boss lady said to help you find something to revive her boss lady” Morpheus swallowed,” My last raven died while trying to help me”,” Well I’m not them, I could still help you find her, if she's asleep we have at least eight hours to find her” Matthew said.
Matthew did help him find Johanna and in the end, she helped him to give him her sand back. Now they were standing outside her old apartment block, “ Why did you decide to end her suffering? You could easily just let have a painful death to spite me for having your sand?” Johanna asked out,” I know how it feels to be responsible for someone suffering,” he said swallowing,” During my time captured my wife fell into an endless sleep to save her from death after birthing our twins” he didn't know why he was opening up to her like that, maybe because they are similar in a way,” With my tools, I can bring her back” Johanna nodded,” I’m sorry to hear that. I hope you find your tools, at least your not alone,” she said looking down at Matthew,” Let’s see each other again but maybe with your wife then, it be interesting to see who stole the heart of Dream of the Endless”.
” Can I ask you a question?” Matthew asked flying beside him,” Why do you blame yourself for your wife’s demise? It wasn't your fault for being captured” Matthew said,” But it is my fault for giving her a necklace which holds part of my power. Her body is human and couldn't handle the power of using it to hold the dreaming together” he said stuffing his hands into his pockets,” If I never gave it to her, she would have been fine. The Dreaming might have looked worse but it could be fixed” he said.
“If you win you get to get your helm back but if I win you be my slave for eternity,” the demon said stroking his hand across the helm,” I agree,” Morpheus said making Matthew gawk,” My champion shall be you, your majesty,” he said to Lucifer who seemed to be delighted at that,” It would be an honour,” they said
“Until next time Light bringer,” Morpheus said cockily after winning the battle,” I will have your head next time Morpheus, and that of your wives. If she's awake by then” Lucifer said making Morpheus glare at her before turning around and walking out of hell. “ Where off to next Boss?” Matthew asked landing on his shoulder as he put his helm on,” To the dreaming, I want to see her” Morpheus said.
“ I nearly have all of my tools my love. Soon you will be in my arms again, and we are able to see our children and hear their joyful laughs as they played in the Gardens. I am able to love you again, I have so much to make up for. I saw our son from a distance, he looks like a perfect mix of us, and his laugh was something only an angel could produce, an angel like you, I can't wait to meet them probably” he said stroking the back of your hand, his helm sat beside his kneeling figure,” Lucienne gave a new raven, he’s different than Jesseym but maybe that what I need, Hold tight my love. I will be back soon with my ruby” he slowly got up, not wanting to let go of your cold hand, he still wasn't used to your cold skin but it doesn't stop him from holding you as much as he can,” I love you with all my heart” he said kissing your forehead. He wanted to wait to kiss your lips until you were awake.
“She is pretty,” Matthew said landing on Morpheus's shoulder,” I have never seen someone so in love with someone, most people will just pick a new partner if their partner died”,” Humans are strange beings after all”,” Your wife is human” Matthew pointed out,” Not for me, she's to perfect to be a human.No of my former loves made me feel like her, nothing and no one can compare,” he said,” The woman in hell was she one of your former lovers right?”,” Yes but that’s all I will tell you,” he said,” Fair enough, we're off to know?”,” My ruby, since I have my helm and sand it will be easier to find”.
Morpheus found a massacre, and John Dee's usage of the ruby started bringing chaos into the world. John didn't seem to be thinking he was doing anything wrong, he thought he was doing the world a favour by taking people's ability to lie away from them. Even after explaining Dreaming is what keeps people alive, he refused to budge. ” It’s not too late to save yourself,” Morpheus said as calmly,” You think, it's me who needs saving”,” Your father stole that ruby from me and cursed you”,” He blessed me with it” he lifted the ruby and began absorbing everything around him including Morpheus,” Your reign ended when my father captured you. This Kingdom is my birthright” he broke the ruby believing it would kill Morpheus but it did the opposite, it realised all the power it held making Morpheus stronger than ever. He can finally free you, hold your warm body in his arms, look into your eyes and fall in love again, kiss the lips he was dreaming of for centuries. He’s thankful to John for that and because of this decided to spare him. All he wanted to do now is return to you and meet his children.
“You think it will work?” Matthew asked sitting on Morpheus’s shoulder,” I’m at full strength now. Even more powerful than before, I don't have a doubt it will work” he said pulling some sand out of his pouch, slowly crouching down beside the casket,” It’s time to wake my love” he said before blowing the sand into your direction,” How long will it take?” Matthew asked, he seemed more excited than Morpheus himself,” Patient” he said softly, he didn't take his of you as he slowly rose again from his crouched position. It felt like aeons to Morpheus, waiting for you to move or show any sign of life. “Please my love,” he said caressing your cheek, then he felt it, your skin wasn't ice cold anymore, it’s getting warmer.” She’s getting warmer” Morpheus said,” My love can you hear me?” he said kneeling once again, then he noticed your chest slowly rising and failing,” There is movement under her eyelids,” Matthew said, Morpheus grabbed one of your hands,” If you can hear me, please squeeze my hand,” he said, desperation in his voice, it took w while but he did feel the slightest pressure on his hand,” Kiss her,” Matthew said randomly,” What?”,” It happens in Disney movies, the Princess is asleep and a Prince kisses her awake” Matthew explained,” Come give it try and relax with your judgmental looks while you at it” he said, Morpheus hesitated but maybe Matthew was right, it wouldn't surprise him if his sister did make that a requirement. He slowly rose and caging your body between his arms,” Give her a good one, it is your guy’s first kiss in a hot minute” Matthew said but Morpheus ignored it, he slowly lowered himself down to your lips, he felt your breath against your lips slightly. He carefully pressed his lips against yours, your lips were still soft as he remembered maybe even softer, he didn't want to remove his lips from yours but he did after a while,” Maybe it needs a while to lift the spell, kind of how like amazon delivery” Matthew said gaining a confused look from Morpheus,” Maybe you're right” Morpheus said sadly,” Don't be upset boss, the boss lady will be up in no time” he said, just when Morpheus and Matthew were about to leave, soft shuffling filled the Dream Lord’s ears,” Morpheus?” a soft but hoarse voice came through afterwards.
Morpheus’s head snapped towards your voice,” Y/N, my love” he said happily, you were trying to sit up but you seem to find it difficult,” Your back, I never had any doubt my love” you said cupping his cheek as tears were streaming down his face,” I leave the two of you alone” Matthew said,” Thank you Matthew” Morpheus said before the raven flew away,” Matthew?” you asked confused,” We have a lot to catch up on but now let’s meet our children first” he said lifting you off the casket into his arms where you belonged.” How long had past since-”,” Too long my love, just so you know I never plan to leave you ever again” he said starting to walk towards Cain and Abel,” You better not” you smiled taking in his scent,” I love you Morpheus” you said softly looking up at him,” I love you, maybe even more” he smiled.
Soon the two of you arrived at the Gate of Cain and Abel’s land. He carefully set you down feet, he wrapped his arm around your waist, steadying you.” What did you name our daughter? I heard Cain call our boy Atlas”,” Althea” you said quickly.” Have they grown much in our absence?” you asked,” You will see my love”.
Meanwhile, the twins were playing with Goldie, they were upset about Gregory's demise but were happy about having another Gargoyle. Abel managed to convince Cain not to tell the twins who took away Gregory as he didn't want the twins to have negative feelings towards their father. Althea was running after Goldie when she tripped over a rock and landed harshly on her belly with a loud thud. “ Althea, are you okay,” Atlas asked concerned before his younger sister burst into tears, Goldie meanwhile flew into the house of mystery to get either Cain or Abel.” Please, Althea, don't cry” Atlas said rubbing his sister's back, her knee and chin were bleeding slightly and she was covered in dirt” Why is the Princess of the Dreaming crying?” Morpheus said making Atlas jump slightly. He looked at Morpheus with identical eyes, instantly recognising him as his father,” We can't have our Princess crying now” you said wrapping your arms around your daughter,” Mother” Atlas said,” You have awakened” he said happily,” Little flower, where does it hurt?” you said gently as Althea wrapped her small arms around your waist,” She hurt her leg” Atlas said grabbing Morpheus sleeve,” Well then can be fixed, look her little flower” Morpheus said softly making the girl peak at her father, he pulled out a bit of sand from his pouch and sprinkled on her injured leg and before she knew it was gone making Althea gasp,,” Do you know who I am?” he asked,” You are our father, Uncle Abel and Lucienne talked about you, they said you will bring Mom from her slumber and restore the dreaming to its former glory” Atlas said,” We have the same eyes” Althea said making Morpheus smile, he grabbed gently and placed her onto his lap,” Yes, we do my little flower” he said melting when his little girl wrapped her arms around him,” Why don't I have a nickname?” Atlas pouted making both Morpheus and you laugh,” How about little raven, as your Dad always has a raven with him” you said pulling him into your laps,” My name is still cooler” Althea said sticking her tongue out at her brother,” You are a flower and I’m a raven, so my nickname is cooler” Atlas said also sticking his tongue at his sister which was countered by a push of your lap from Althea,” Hey, no violence. Both of you have cool nicknames, right Morpheus?” you said,” Yes, they are children of the Endless after all, who only have cool nicknames” he said tickling Althea sides making her giggle which filled Morpheus should with happiness,” Are you as ticklish as your sister little raven” you said before tickling his sides making giggle as well. Soon both twins were giggling making both you and Morpheus happier than ever.
“Althea, Irving- I mean Goldie said you are hurt,” Abel said rushing towards the four of you,” I’m fine now Uncle Abel, my Papa healed it,” she said cuddling into Morpheus's side,” Well, then I let the reunited family alone. Dinner is nearly ready though, so feel free to join us- Lady Y/N, your awake” Abel gasped,” CAINE, LADY Y/N IS AWAKE” he shouted heavily,” What are you babbling about- Lady Y/N, your back, and with the twins. Why not joins us for dinner, we have enough for all of us. It is an honour” Cain said,” We gladly accept” you smiled looking at Atlas who was placing flowers in your hair. The two brothers nodded and quickly when back into the house leaving the four of you alone again. You looked at Morpheus who was staring at you,” You are even more beautiful than I remember” he said as the twins started to chase each other again, he pulled you into his arms and kissed your forehead,” Whatever happens next, I want you at my side” he said softly stroking your arm,” Good as I would have forced my way into it. You aren't getting rid of me this easy from now on” you smiled nuzzling into his neck,” Is that a promise?” Morpheus asked,” Yes” you smiled,” Good,” he said cupping your chin and placing his lips on yours.” Ewwwww,” the twins said making you and Morpheus pull apart,” Kissing gives cooties, “ Althea said,” Cooties don't affect grown-ups my little flower” she still scrunched up her nose in disgust,” I still will never kiss a boy,” she said making Morpheus smile,” You better not,” he said poking her belly,” Dad play ball with us before dinner, Mom can join as well,” Atlas said picking up a ball,” Girls vs boys” he added,” Challenge accepted” you smiled, Althea nodded,” The winner gets the loser desert,” she said,” Deal,” Atlas said.
Morpheus looked around himself and couldn't believe it was real, he thought he was in a dream of his own making while still being trapped by Burgess but reality came when he felt a ball small against his shoulder and a small giggle following,” sorry Papa” Althea giggled,” Come on Dad, we can't lose” Atlas said tugging at Morpheus sleeve. No, everything was very much real, he had his twins, his realm and you. Everything is as it should be, at least for the moment but Morpheus doesn't care about the obstacles of the future, so long he has you at his side, he’s ready to face anything.
