Morpheus' life would be better if... he had married Lucifer, they left everything, opened a bar, dedicated himself to making fun of the simple things in life and had a child (Cats also works L)

His hair is a bird nest for his birds, that's the secret

I like the idea that Dream would've looked kinda like Nancy Downs from the craft if he wasn't trapped for the 80s meeting
Uncle Morpheus
The thing with being a celestial demon, the only one of her kind, gifted with immortality, mortality, celestial status, and shadowy abodes, she was accustomed to being an oddity to the world, to the realms known. Raven was accustomed to the world being strange and wild, she was accustomed to the oddities of her reality; though she had never expanded upon those odditites to her mortal friends.
Today though… that was different.
Lucifer was easily explained away because he was her grandfather, his wife, Mazekeen, also explained away. Her father, Trigon, his sons: Wrath, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Sloth, Lust; she could explain her uncle Etrigan and even show their family tree. She could explain her divinity, especially when Luci’s side of the family popped in and out of her life when they wanted, Gabriel, Raphael, Michael, Eliene and Call Belloc, and her uncle Takehiko. Raven had no trouble explaining the paternal line of her paternal father’s line, and no one really asked her questions beyond that. Yes, there was also her mortal maternal line, where she had relatives like Merlin, Morgan la Fey, and so much more; her lines were the greatest mortal magicians and sorceresses, and so forth, it was impressive. But no one asked about her father’s maternal line.
Her father’s maternal line was… complicated. And she tended not to interact much with her paternal grandmother or her grandmother’s family, and as such frequently slipped under their notice.
At least until now…
Raven had walked out of her room to find her grandmother’s brother; her uncle, standing in her kitchen with a mug of coffee, messy black hair and billowing black robes. Her teammates were standing there bewildered and baffled, and Raven raised a brow as she looked between them and then her uncle.
“Uncle,” she drawled out as she slid her hands into her pockets, cocking her head a bit as she looked at him. Her uncle did look remarkably like David Bowie in the Labyrinth; she wondered if she should get her uncle a Goblin King mug, if he’d find it amusing or unamusing.
“Raven,” he turned his heavy gaze upon her.
“You know him?” Dick sputtered.
“I have been meaning to visit you,” Dream said as he walked towards her.
“I know him, Dick, as do you,” she replied calmly. “Uncle, this is everyone, you know Garfield, Dick, Kori, and my brother Victor. To what do I owe the pleasure, Uncle?”
“How could he know us Rae!?” Victor shouted.
“Lucienne has insisted I have a raven accompany me on this quest,” her uncle drawled out. “And I have found myself a lack of wanting a raven when I have been meaning to visit my niece.”
“Rae…” Dick drawled out.
“This is my grandmother’s brother, Dick, Dream,” Raven said softly. “How’s grandma?”
“Death is lovely, though she is crossed you don’t write more often,” Dream said as he examined her.
“DEATH!?” Garfield screeched.
“You don’t mean death-death, death isn’t… living.”
“On the contrary, Death is Endless, and an Endless is the ceasing being of existence, she is Endless, just as Dream here, with Desire, Delirium, Despair, Destruction and Destiny, they are the Endless manifestation in existence,” Raven stated. “Death, the embodiment of Death, is my grandmother. So, why are you here, Uncle?”
“I’m in need of a raven and I desire, greatly to spend time with my niece,” he drawled out.
“I’m not your raven, and no, no no, no, no, let me put it in Spanish, NO, I’m not helping you again Uncle, No, nope, no, just… no,” Raven stated as she poured herself tea and glared at the Endless. His wild black hair, he was getting the Goblin King mug, she was going to give it to him.
“You have not heard what I have need your assistance for,” Dream chuckled.
“I was turned into an actual raven for your quest,” she countered. “No.”
“It is a matter of the universe,” he stated.
“It could be a quest from God Himself and I’d tell Him the same thing I’m telling you, No. I like not being an Endless, just like I like not being a Celestial being, or a demon, the answer is no.”
“You are an Endless, you are a Celestial being, you are a Demon, and you are Magic, and there is much you have left to learn, young Raven,” he mused.
“I have learned enough and no, I’m not helping, I’ve got magic to learn, things to do, mortality to enjoy, no,” she repeated.
“You do have duties to which you are bound, niece, and it is time we explore those duties,” he countered.
“I am Pride, and a Celestial Demon, what role could you possibly feel I should fulfill for this world? Other than ruining it; Gem of Scath and all.”
“You’re the unbound Endless, dear, let us find out,” Dream purred. “Also, I seek passage to your grandfather’s realm, and after our last encounter, it was in poor taste to say the least.”
“Luci isn’t going to give you a pass Uncle just because you bring his favorite granddaughter,” she chirped. “Also, I thought you and the Endless didn’t like interfering with one another and travelling to Luci’s realm.”
“No, I know, but I seek to right a powerful wrong and require your assistance, dear, so… please.”
“Please?”
“You’re in deep shit,” she muttered.
“Very, it is about your grandmother, Death, they have taken her, and as such, we must travel to where none, but the key can go,” Dream drawled out. “And you, Gem of Scath, are that key.”
“Fuck,” she muttered. “When do we leave?”
“Now,” Dream held out his hand. She took it as she felt his power pull her own with him.

Dick stood gaping in his kitchen as they stared at where Raven had been.
“What the fuck just happened!?” Garfield screeched.
“Raven has the weirdest family, and I am her brother,” Victor stated. They all stood there dumbly staring at where Raven and tall, dark, and wild hair had disappeared. She was gone, as was the strange man, and left with nothing but the grains of sands.
“What is an Endless?” Garfield sputtered dumbly.
Raven was just gone.
“I’m just very confused,” Dick admitted. “Very, very confused.”
“Rae’s an odd one,” Vic decided. “And she left without the waffles.”
yall know how people say that Din Djarin is the main character who wants to be a side character? I feel like thats what Dream* is trying to accomplish as well...
