the howl of wolves. moonless nights. dirt under fingernails. stained silk. chattering teeth. voices hoarse and cracked. rotting fruit. echoing drums. dry heaving. hanging cobwebs. stifling humidity. bloodshot eyes. the roughness of rusted steel. wild rose bushes. muscle cramps. the sound of splintering wood.
A Midsummer Night’s Dream:
crackling fires. the faint music of running water. dirty, bare feet. tattered clothing. petrichor. thistledown. wilted wildflower crowns. ivy crawling on stone. late evening birdsong. curling leaves. a symphony of croaking frogs. drifting feathers. the eerie sound of windchimes at night. humming bees. beds of clover.
shattered glass. a cluster of fraying ribbons. unanswered knocks on doors. lingering dampness. white noise. inexplicable drafts. migraines. bleeding ears. the taste of metal. reflected mirrors. dry, cracked lips. the sound of tearing paper. fogged windows. memories of dreams. tarnished silver. protruding veins.

How they sing at karaoke parties?
It depends on who is with him. If he is with strangers or people he’s not very close he probably won’t sing anything, even though he has a great singing voice he is pretty shy, he’ll probably bring a book with him. However, if he is with friends who are up to sing with him, then Morpheus will mostly do a full performance. He’ll only sing the songs he knows he’ll be able to rock.(Have you ever seen Adam Lambert performances? Like that.)

Pinterest.
Opinion on puns?
He loves puns, especially bad ones.
How do they typically deal with their problems?
At first he may try ignoring it. He’ll get anxious if he needs to deal with it and may have a problem speaking up. After noticing the problems won’t just vanish he’ll start dealing with them at his own pace, alone. He’s still getting used to the idea of having people he can count on, so asking his friends for help is the last resource and he’ll feel guilty about it.

He takes quite long baths every night. More often than not he forgets to take his make-up off before entering the bath, so he usually takes the makeup after.

Probably mead.

Indie folk and glam rock.

It’s not broadway but, Repo! The Genetic Opera.

He’d try to pretend he forgot about it to make a surprise to his partner but he’d fail miserably. At midnight he’d be already saying happy birthday to them. He’d buy them their favorite cake/pie and if possible, spend the day with his significant other. At the end of the day, Morpheus would give them their birthday gift... and probably some smooches.
Would they rather turn into a tiny rhinoceros or a giant hamster?
Tiny rhino. Imagine how adorable that would be.
What would they do for their significant other for Valentine’s Day?
Significant other? Pfft. In valentine’s day Morpheus is bathing all his friends with their favorite chocolates. For him, Valentine’s day is more a friendship day than a romantic day.
