sandman dropped at the exact right time for tumblr, since we’ve largely moved past having sexymen and are now exclusively into affectionately roasting men who are Pathetic™ which is exactly the treatment dream deserves
I mean look at this scrunkly motherfucker. he spent a hundred years sulking in a christmas ornament. he pisses everyone off everywhere he goes. he once sprinted out of a bar because his actual bestie suggested they might be friends. he’s so fucking rude <3 I want to crumple him up like a piece of scrap paper and do trick shots with him into my wastepaper bin
Dream: *preaches to others, including Lucifer themselves, about the virtues of hope*
Also Dream: *faces mild inconvenience*
Glad to report they did our sulky boi justice 🖤
King of Dreams, King of Nightmares… in any case, i just think he’s neat
when your immortal best friend who doesn’t know your name but has been meeting you for 400 years throws tea in the face of the hired thug that’s trying to knife you and then wins a 2 vs 1 fight with nothing but a cup of tea and violence without you having to lift a finger because he has no idea you’re the literal incarnation of all dreams and he didn’t want you getting hurt and now you’re impressed and a little charmed and this is still the most awkward friendship imaginable but it’s literally the only one you have so you’re totally unaware of that fact and of how ridiculous it is that this guy has been dressing up and waiting for you for the last four centuries without even knowing your goddamn name: you need not have come to my defense 😌😏

Dream + his rare, tiny, precious smile
I kept a journal for a while. A chronicle of everything that happened in your absence. But slowly, the words began to fade. Sometime after you left, all the books in the library became bound volumes of blank paper. The next day, the whole library was gone. I never found it again.
