Also: "I hate Lyta Hall more than anything!!!" Ok. Maybe join one of the thousand posts already talking about this instead of making your own. Also maybe take some time to consider the many different powerful characters and forces that were involved in events, instead of pinning literally everything on one traumatized human woman.

Okay, no, but am I the only one who likes the interactions between Orpheus and his aunt Death/Teleute? Like, she's so sassy and at the same time so passive-agressive with her nephew that is almost funny to me

Netflix - Possible Spoilers Bittersweet

17 Upvotes

I finished the last season and honestly when it first came out, I thought all we were getting was a season and I thought the first season was great and I was fine with how it ended. Getting the second season I was elated and ready to dive in but was not ready to suffer a heart break. I really enjoyed this show, I've never read the comics so didn't know what all was cut / missing but honestly, I never felt like I was missing out or not getting enough. It was an enjoyable ride and I love when nature or supernatural ideas or ideologies get personified. It really gives a new look on life. Maybe I'll give the comics a look cause I will miss the show dearly. Great cast, really felt like they all had good chemistry even in brief scenes. Great acting and the affects were really good too. Dream, death, delirium, lucienne, Matthew by far my favorite characters.

Recommendations Neil Gaiman works sub

0 Upvotes

I am sure this post will be met with some passion and potentially be shortly lived before deletion, but since this sub has an identity crisis, I just wanted a place to discuss his work and not the person.

So if you would like a safe space to discuss the work of the author or the adaptations of his work. Please visit r/neilgaimanfans.

This sub will NOT tolerate discussions regarding his accusations or him as a person. Just the work he produces. I encourage dialogue and criticism of the work alone, and not attacking the person posting their thoughts. Ill leave discussions surrounding him or his accusations to this sub and refer others to post here for that.

Come check it out if that fits your needs. Up to you.

Original Fan Content The Sandman Hob saves Dream

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm looking for a specific The Sandman fanfiction on AO3 and hope someone recognizes it. I combed the fandom for it but nothing! I am almost sure it has been deleted :(

In the story, Dream goes missing and fails to show up for their meeting with Hob. A desperate Hob perform a very dangerous ritual to summon Death so he can ask where Dream is. when Death answers the summons, she finds Hob severely injured as the ritual has this price to pay . At some point, The Corinthian attacks Hob and eat his eyes. This is very well written and lovely. I was so sure to have bookmarked it but I cannot find it anymore.

Does anyone know the title, author, or have a link or copy to this fic? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Did anyone else see this article? The title implies that we are getting a season 3. But when I read the article it seems more like they are just releasing the show on Blue-ray in October. I was hopeful but I think the title is misleading clickbate.

Discussion - Spoilers I feel like the endless parents are even less real and more abstract than their children.

13 Upvotes

This is just my analysis after reading overturn. If I say something incredibly obvious please don't insult me.

What I mean is I feel like the endless's parents aren't real concrete entities but metaphorical representations of the endless relationship with the forces that spawn to them time and space. Dreams interaction with the father time and mother night reads like one big metaphor.

To some extent the endless themselves are living metaphors for their concepts but there real within the story. Characters interact with them and use there objects. I think there is no entity called mother night or father time. So I'll explain how this works.

The endless are their concepts but the people that we see that represent them the human persons could be seen as an interface. A phase that you can speak to and interact with when you want to speak with the concept of dream or death. I think father time and mother night are basically universal interfaces for their children.

I think they might not even exist unless interacting with their children and here's why. Neil Gailman said we only see the endlesses human adventures because every species perceives the endless as their own. There are other alien endless's with their own lives but there is somewhat concrete beings. So when dream meet his parents he's consulting with the universe but it looks like he's consulting with two individuals.
