Morpheus's wardrobe in the comics absolutely sends me. It's like ah yes, here we have him at home. He is in jeans and a tshirt. Now he's Going Out, so he has his flowy black robe and his gear etc., oh and let's not forget the cleavage, where'd his shirt go (?). Oh wait there it is. All the way unbuttoned. Now he's got a high-collared trenchcoat. And now a different robe, or maybe a cape. WAIT WHY'S HE IN A SUIT AND TIE--

I love the "Calliope" episode of The Sandman so much I can't fucking breathe help

I just. There are so so many reasons to love it, but the thing I am absolutely losing my mind over is Dream's characterization.

Here is an Endless being who holds grudges like nobody's business and spent a whole episode sulking because he was bored. He is a ridiculous overpowered repressed pathetic weirdo with this exquisitely crafted arrogance and a touch of a victim complex, who contains kindness and cruelty in equal measures (all of the above being reasons I find him so compelling as a character btw 😂).

And he, the moment Calliope turns the conversation to him, says with the utmost deadass sincerity that what he went through does not compare to her experience.

Talk about character development.

The fact that he immediately and consistently centers her pain, treating her with empathy, gentleness, and respect, and then deals with her oppressor with a level of sheer cold righteous fury we have not seen from him - and the fact that the narrative could have easily taken the jealous lover/lustful reunion angle BUT INSTEAD framed their love for each other as something much deeper that transcends physical or romantic attraction - y'all I'm dead.

God-tier character-driven writing. The man is in like what, four scenes lmao and still the degree to which the rest of the series has evolved him is viscerally palpable. Well done @neil-gaiman &co., well done

Let Tom Sturridge have black painted nails for the future arcs of Sandman 2k23 😤😤✨🖤

#the sandman #dream of the endless #tom sturridge #i am manifesting it.#it's such a small thing but it's one of my favorite Dream aesthetics and one that's definitely doable for them stylistically okayyyyy #C'MON LET'S GO #kase rambles

Me: I wonder if Tom Sturridge can sing

Me: *starts watching On The Road*

Me, only paying half attention: oh this bit of song is so balanced and soulful it sounds like part of the soundtrack, I wonder if one of them recorded i--HOLY FUCK NOPE THAT'S TOM. SINGING. QUESTION FUCKIN ANSWERED,,

#tom sturridge #this is why i fucking love actors man #they're all so insanely multitalented. especially the character actors like him #i assumed he could sing since he's got a theater background and I mean most actors CAN #but not all actors are GOOD at it and well #of course he is. how could he not be with That voice #ugh #kase rambles

One thing I hope show-only shadow and bone fans caught is how Kaz did not actually bury Alby alive

I feel like it was glossed over in the show, which like. I get that they had to move through Pekka's arrest quickly but I wish they'd made it a bit more clear. It is such an important example of Kaz's character - yes he's unhinged and yes he's not afraid to ""go there"" in terms of digging into the meat of people's deepest fears and manipulatable points but as a general rule he still does not kill or seriously endanger innocent people and for all his talk he does still see Alby as innocent

Sandman meta posts I want to write if I ever get the spoons lmao:

- aroacespec Dream!!!! with textual evidence

- Dream and Desire's fraught and EXTREMELY COMPLICATED sibling relationship

- why Dream and Delirium have my favorite relationship dynamic of the whole series

- how the Endless are metaphors for various fonts of the queer neurodivergent experience, especially Dream and Delirium

- Dream and Calliope and why their relationship is so so tragic and also wholesome

- how Tom and Melissanthi's portrayals add so much depth and meaning to the above relationship and what I'm interested in seeing come out of that

- why I think Hob is his most healing and significant relationship whether you ship them romantically/sexually or not

- why I wish Dream could have an au where he's in a polyamorous relationship with Calliope and Hob

- how Dream's dysfunction with both Orpheus and Calliope reflects his treatment of himself

- why I prefer Tom Sturridge's portrayal of Morpheus over James McAvoy's, rooted in the way they approached his relationship with his emotions

- how Overture transforms the entire story and adds so much nuance and context to Dream

- various analyses of songs I've put on all my sandman playlists lmao

- probably more I can't think of rip

Fandom experiences I still need to post about:

- why Tom Sturridge is actually the kindest, gentlest, most genuine human I have possibly ever met & is the kind of person to just drop life-changing comments without knowing it lolll

- how I had a fanboy moment over sandman with Freddy Carter lmao

- all my cosplay pictures lolcry
