Summary
Contrary to belief, the Endless did not know all. They were not the most powerful beings in the universe. They existed to serve the world they were born into by Time and Night. Time and Night, who in turn, only existed by a wave of the hand by the Creator - when the universe was born.
What was known was that Lucifer and Michael were fated to fight until the end of days - the war between the silver city and Hell constant and ruthless. However, it was not fought directly by them - but by their cohorts... demons for Lucifer and Nephilims for angels.
Nephilims were feral beings, no better than demons - only marked with grace and wings instead of blackness and horns. Creatures that were vicious and ravenous - feasting on the blood and essence of their enemies.
The Endless did not know everything, but even Dream knew that it was best to never meet a Nephilim without a muzzle... and better yet, it was best to not cross the considered leader of their Nephilim, the only female - Mikayla.
But as said before... the Endless... Dream did not know everything. He did know duty. He did not know her.

Summary
After initially dismissing an oddity in the Dreaming, over the years Morpheus gets to know his unusual visitor.
Chapter 1 tease:
“Since my return to the Dreaming and the rebuilding of it, there has been something amiss. I thought it was simply the realm resettling.” He pointed across the river. “It’s her.”“Another vortex?” Lucienne asked, alarmed.
“No,” Dream replied. He was intrigued. “Something else. Something new.”
Sloooooooow burn (seriously takes years so she can grow up) story of strangers to friends to lovers. Time warped but somewhat follows the comics so SPOILERS!

Summary
Long before the world forgot how to listen to trees, the Oracle of Dodona and the Lord of Dreams walked the path between sleep and prophecy. Where they passed, ravens perched in silence, and the oaks whispered secrets only gods could bear.
In the dying light of the fourth century, beneath the shadow of Theodosius, they struck a covenant: at each century’s turn, she would offer him a raven. In return, he would plant an oak in the Dreaming—its roots deep, its branches wide, its purpose sacred.
But Dream is gone.
And the Oracle waits beneath a sky that no longer speaks, listening for wings that do not come. The century turns. The oak remains unplanted. And the silence is beginning to rot.
The tragedy has not yet begun.
But it will.
(a love three thousand years in the making)

Summary
what if it had ended differently?
what if it had begun differently?There is a way out of the garden. One that does not end in the death of Dream. But it requires that the universe must be rewritten.
Or perhaps, it requires that everything happens as it was written.
(an experimental work on the nature of creation, destruction, dreams and hope)

Summary
The Dreaming stands, but Dream... Dream is gone.
In the aftermath of the assault on the Dreaming, the Kindly Ones delivered their judgement, their punishment - for spilling blood - and yet, Dream is gone... but not yet returned. Death does not understand why. Endless remain... and yet Dream... is just gone.
Only because the Kindly Ones did not take his life that day. No. It's not much of a punishment if it was what he craved most.
No, instead, they trap him in an unending nightmare - living the moment he killed his son over and over again. Until he breaks, until he begs, until the end of time - Dream doesn't know. He just knows there's no escape. There's no help coming. He's alone.
And every day that he kills his son - just to wash the blood away again and again... He desires for this to end, he would beg for death, he wallows in despair, and he worries he's becoming delirious. The touch of his siblings reside in him, but he accepts they will never come for him. He deserves this. It's his punishment.
His siblings don't care - he tells himself... unaware they don't even know he's alive, and if they did - none of them, not even Desire, would agree.

Summary
“You cannot help me,” Dream rasps. “Not this time.”
Hob rocks back, furrowing his brow and defies this.
“Begging your pardon, King of Dreams, but I’ll decide what I can or cannot do, thank you,” Hob chides, lifting his brow in soft warning.
Or the one where Hob steals yarn, fights an old (immortal) lady and accidentally messes everything up fantastically. (but in a good way). [And the author's frantic attempt to make better sense of the horrible mess of Season 2 Vol 2]

Summary
Aila was never a normal child. Being the offspring of Lucifer Morningstar was a guarantee of that, but only child of the devil or not doesn't change that her mother wants nothing to do with her - past, present or apparently future.
All Aila wants is to understand her place and purpose in the world - why she was born... prompting her to go in search of her father - a man that doesn't even know she exists. Of course, the last thing Aila expects is him to be an Endless - one without his memories.
But before she can even dive into that, she meets his nightmare, discovers her life and possible purpose far more intertwined with the Endless than not, and promptly - accidentally - sends herself and the Corinthian back to Greek times... where she'll get the chance to meet her entire family - and her brother.
Aila would have preferred to have been normal.

Summary
“He’s not really scary.”
Hob glances at the girl beside him. “Who isn’t?”
“My brother. He likes people to think he is. It’s… easier, I think.”
“Easier than what?”
Her gaze flicks to him, mismatched eyes catching in the moonlight. For a heartbeat, she looks older than the strange, restless girl she appears to be. “Than letting people see the soft parts. The parts that hurt. The vulnerable, gooey ones. If you’re frightening, people don’t touch you. Don’t want to know you. They don’t get close enough to break you.”
AKA: Hob Gadling sees much more than he lets on, befriends a couple of anthropomorphic entities, considers crimes and maybe saves his Stranger along the way.

Summary
Desire stands still, too still, at the edge of her twin's realm. Looking down at the orb that mimics Earth's world.
They stood still, slick with gold, perfect as ever. But trembling at the edges.
"I feel your echoes in my realm." Despair pauses. "It's the first time. And it is... terrifying."
Silence flooded the room.
"Desire doesn't last here. Only what's left of it." Despair takes a step closer to Desire's bubble, careful and cautious. "Whatever you're feeling, it wasn't meant to survive long enough to reach me."
"It's not grief." Desire chuckles, trying to keep their composure, a wall raising. Avoidance.
"Not yet." Despair responds.

Summary
He is the King of Dreams. She is the one dream he cannot wake.
In the infinite halls of the Dreaming, the ever-shifting tapestry of mortal hopes and nightmares have begun to fall apart. Palaces collapse into oceans; familiar landscapes rot into wastelands; dreams turn inside out. When Morpheus discovers the cause: a mortal woman who walks his realm as if it belongs to her. She bends the dreamscapes without knowing, then vanishes like mist.
In the waking world, she lies in an unyielding coma—her body still, her soul roaming free. She moves through his dominion like a phantom, bending the dreamscapes without knowing, her presence a dangerous, intoxicating storm. Each attempt to wake her leaves him more entangled, her absence cutting sharper than any blade. Every attempt fails, as though something—or someone—holds her fast between worlds.
What begins as an act of duty grows into something far more dangerous: fascination. The King of Dreams finds himself drawn to her, her strange power, her fragile mortality, and the unfathomable connection between their fates. Sometimes even the King of Dreams must face a dangerous truth: some dreams are not meant to be woken.
