i do still draw things i promise it's just that these days it's exorbitant amounts of nsfw and i cant be bothered to remember whether thats ok on tumblr now or not
suddenly started thinking about one of my first ever ocs and all the different versions i had of them over the years from all the different stories i put them in... can you tell i learned to draw starting with 2015 warrior cats amvs and never updated my cat artstyle
hello yeah so basically everything i write and draw about sandman takes place in this AU that's been continually developed since, like, 2018. only a small fraction of said AU is actually written down, but it's still a lot of fics, so i wanted to make one big navigational post
this post will be updated as i write more, so if you rb this for later, pls check back on this original post! i might totally reorganize this lol
the series mainly focuses on lucifer, dream, and mazikeen throughout sandman (1989), lucifer (2000), and lucifer (2016) comic series, occasionally snagging parts from hellblazer, sandman tv, and other stuff.
want just one link to the whole AU? please enjoy the full series on AO3!
