Summary
In a strange coffee shop beyond time, Morpheus meets Paige, a lost and lonely Dreamer troubled by her forgotten past. Together, they encounter familiar faces and embark on a heartfelt journey of friendship, healing, and self-discovery.
Contains spoilers for the Sandman series finale ("A Tale of Graceful Ends") and the show in general. Which absolutely wrecked me emotionally. So. You know. I had to write a nice little epilogue for it.

Dramatic, Broody and Cosmic: Or, The Complicated Romance Between Superman and The Lord of Dreams by crypt_mirror
Fandoms: DCU (Comics), The Sandman (Comics), The Sandman (TV 2022), Superman - All Media Types
29 Nov 2025

Summary
It started with the immortal Hob Gadling facing the kind of plane crash that would’ve been very messy for someone like him — the certain-bits-and-pieces-scattered-all-over-the-Midwest kind of mess.
Superman saved the day. The Lord of Dreams took notice.
What follows is the complicated romance between Superman, who carries the weight of the world, and Dream of the Endless, who carries the weight of every story ever told-- and then some. There will be politics, cosmic meddling, Justice League side-eyes, sibling drama (Endless Edition), a Bat shaped billionaire's possessive concern, a few brushes with disaster, and—inevitably—frozen waffles in the Dreaming.

Summary
What was the saying? Ah, yes, dreaming doesn't cost anything.
Well, what if it turned out that the concept of dreaming was much more than a concept? What if it was, in turn, a man behind glass, and there was once a girl who tried to set him free?
That girl's name was Esther Carrasco, and it turned out that dreaming cost her everything.

Summary
Dream places the ruby necklace around his neck. “You seem displeased with me.”
“Do I” You tilt your head, smiling.
“Yes,” he says, and there’s a smile on his face that can barely be called one. At least he sounds amused. “Have I done something to gain your ire?”
“It is not I who seems . . . displeased,” you say, lightly. “The Dreaming can fell it, my dear. Every resident can feel The Corinthian’s absence.”
Dream stretches his hand out for you, close enough for you to see it as it is – An offering. You take it, and slip your cold fingers into his own. His hands are warm. It’s so strikingly different from the mood of The Dreaming.
[Or the events of Sandman S1 and S2 with the soft song of a king and a queen. A dream and a star.]

Summary
You don’t really know how the world works.
You just sort of- are. What, exactly, you don’t know. All you know is your duty, to shelter wistful children stuck in numb, bumbling thought into spouts of renewed ambition, instating a fervor for life distilled from pure wonder. Your purpose is to talk teenagers off of the edge, brandishing hope like playing cards and shattering sorrowful stupors in gleeful spills off of backyard swings. To dream up a fantasy so enthralling upon scrawled school essay margins that it spreads its glossy inkblot onto reality, smiling in daydreams and make-believe.
You’re an aching conglomerate of millions of childhood memories, promises, and aspirations. You’re swept with scars and sacrifice, set with an everlasting smile, offering sanctuary within the wastelands of windswept fear.
You don’t really know how the world works.
All you know is to keep helping, even as the world grows colder, and dreams grow dimmer. You think you’re dying. But you try.
Until someone comes looking for you.

Summary
The King of Dreams and Nightmares leaves for the Waking World with an assurance that he will return.
You know the truth.
You know better.
There’s a small part of you that says it’s for the best. That Roderick Burgess’ prison changes him. That this is his destiny. That you are doing no wrong. That . . . that it is not your place to interfere with matters that are not your own.
This is for the best.
Right?
. . . Right?

Summary
You think you know the Sandman? I assure you, no one knew him better than a handful of people. His parents, Night and Time; his siblings: Destiny, Death, Destruction, Desire, Despair, and Delirium; his human friend, Hob Gadling; and a human woman who was a dreamer and, most likely, the love of his existence - Belle.
Of course, he must aid her in a time of great need before they become such a romantic duo. How must he aid her? As her beloved, affectionate, abnormally large pet cat, of course. And as the man she dreams and fantasizes about when she should be doing labs and calculus.
Isn't it against the rules for an Endless to love a mortal? Perhaps, but nothing good in life comes easy.
Follow Belle and Dream through their lives and adventures; their hopes and struggles as they traverse labyrinths between worlds and dimensions. As they brave the depths of Hell and agony. As they come face to face with gods, monsters, and demons. And as their love for each other grows stronger... endlessly.

Summary
Sleep had always slipped through her fingers and every remedy has failed. Desperate and delirious, after one agonising day too many, she gives in to a childish urge. She prays to deities that she does not know if she believes in.
Elpis, for hope. Hemera, for a brighter tomorrow. Eirene, for peace.
And at last, Morpheus. For sleep. For dreams. For mercy.

Summary
Hob Gadling was celebrating beating Death herself at a game of dice (he only cheated a little) when he loudly declared to his compatriots that he is never going to die. It's what prompts his beautiful Stranger to materialize over his shoulder, proposing... a wager, of sorts. They'll just have to keep meeting century after century if his Stranger is ever going to collect.
Hob supposes they've both lost after he's left drinking alone in 1989. So thirty-some years later, when his Stranger rematerializes with an apology and little explanation, there's hardly pretense to resume where they left off. There just remains the task of figuring out the rules of whatever game they're playing now.
Or: the Vampire AU in which Hob learns that Dream is exactly the supernatural creature he suspects, fairy tales are exactly as bloody as their origins suggest, and Twilight is never, not ever, to be cited as an authoritive source on things tall, goth, and brooding.
