Summary
Clark Kent's marriage to Bruce Wayne threw him straight into the chaos of the Batfam—a den of chronic insomnia and neglected self-care. Determined to enforce at least a bare minimum of healthy routine, Clark declared war on sleepless nights and diets of pure black coffee.
Some accepted the changes reluctantly. But Tim Drake? Tim was a whole other challenge.
After countless failed attempts to convince him to take better care of himself, Clark decided to fight dirty. The offer? 90 days of regulated sleep and less coffee in exchange for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity—to humiliate Lex Luthor.
Now, the looming question: Will Tim hold up his end of the deal, or will his work obsession (and caffeine addiction) sabotage his own revenge?

Summary
He wished suddenly, viciously, that he had seen the Dreaming when it was a ruin. He wished he had laid his eyes upon the devastation of all that Dream held dear, wondered if the king of the abandoned kingdom had fallen to his knees at the sight, if the yawning cavern of his despair felt anything like The Corinthian's own.
Abruptly, Dream stopped, turning swiftly back to The Corinthian.
He was surprised to see Dream's lips parted as if shocked, something like horror, like pain, splitting open in his expression as he stared at him.
"I think I have absorbed the point of this little tour, my lord."
The Corinthian smiled without pleasure, without humor, without bite.

Summary
— My biggest concern is not that.
— What worries you then?
The smell and ash marred Alfred's care for this house. — gray smoke billowed from his nostrils, infesting the rushing air coming from the only opening to the outside. — I don't mean to be rude, Morpheus, but doesn't the kingdom of dreams need its king present?
— The common human sense of “presence” is not the same as our, you know, But my assistants fulfill their role, I can venture out if I need to.— The king leaned closer, stealing the cigarette directly from Bruce's lips, who snorted in annoyance.
— “Need”? — he scoffed, receiving no response from the entity that made the harmful object between his fingers disappear into thin air — I just...—
— You are overestimating yourself, you will leave before your own children mature.
— They'll have Alfred, they don't need me.
— No. But they want to, and, i need you to. -

Three Hundred Years of Longing by Opium_du_Peuple
Fandoms: The Sandman (TV 2022), The Sandman (Comics)
08 Apr 2025
Tags
Summary
Seven years of dreams. A rare gift from the Lord of the Dreaming, who is not usually in the habit of granting favours. When he sets out to bring a little comfort to a hopeless dreamer, Morpheus does so more out of curiosity than benevolence. At least in the beginning. Even an Endless's feelings are subject to change.
As fate reunites them three hundred years later, Dream's curiosity has not waned. Perhaps there is a reason he stayed away from her for centuries. Perhaps it is not curiosity, after all.- Language:

Summary
You can really understand why people named our galaxy the Milky Way out here, the wisps of gas and dust pour out in a waterfall across the sky. Blacks and blues and dark purples and whites. Stars–blue-white and yellow-white and some almost orange–glitter across the entire sky.
The only sound for miles is the murmur of nocturnal wildlife. Even the wind has decided to go to bed.
Yeah, this is why he moved out here. There isn't a sign of another human for miles and miles and-
As he is literally thinking about the lack of people, the sound of a motor in the distance hits his awareness and he curses. “God fucking-”
It is getting louder.
Fast.

Summary
The Endless are not capable of love. Not the way humans are.
Dream wants to fix it. Hob helps, unknowingly at first, willingly after.

Bookmark Notes:
“I…You’re asking me what love means?” Hob asked, again.
“Hod Gadling, stop repeating my questions and begin responding to them or I shall find someone else to provide me with answers,”
“Alright, alright!” Hob sighed and sat up. Dream took a seat next to him and prepared to listen.
“I think…I mean, anyone you ask would probably give you a different answer, but I think love – and I mean real love – is sort of simple. It’s a moment of quiet between two people. Complete understanding, complete alignment, complete lack of judging. I don’t think love is about grand gestures and dying for each other and not bearing to spend a single day apart. I think love is about comfort. You feel no doubt, no fear. You trust them completely. You make sacrifices for them and know that they would do it for you, too. Real love is about knowing each other’s darkest, ugliest sides, but loving the person, still. You know them entirely, things they’re proud of, things they’re ashamed of, things they hate about themselves, but it changes nothing to you. I think love is choosing each other, every day, and being content in that choice,”
Dream stared at Hob throughout his entire speech and remained wordless even afterwards.
This was his answer. Things Hob spoke of seemed completely, utterly, irreversibly unattainable to Dream.

On sexual dimorphism in C. urophasianus by Moorishflower

Summary
"I must court you," Dream pronounces, and Hob drags his attention away from the flowers. Grimaces slightly.
"You don't have to," he says. "This will only last a week or two, and then we can go back to being, you know. Normal boyfriends who aren't being driven insane by the urge to put every shiny object in the flat in the bloody bed with me."
Hob has gone into heat, but an omega's instincts demand that Dream make himself an appealing partner before he will be allowed to touch his lover. This calls for drastic measures. This calls for courtship.
