The Crimson Petals by brunettehairmaiden91

Summary
Once, Dream shaped the world. Now, the world dreams of shaping him.
In the Dreaming, Nuala begins to dream of a man in a temple, a voice that speaks of Morpheus as father and fate as a circle unbroken. Her visions awaken something ancient, something that could either unmake or renew the Dreaming itself.
For even gods must face the Hour of Change. The Kindly Ones were never alone.
There will be spoilers for season 2's ending and for the comic ending.

as eternity unravels (through our fingers while we sleep) by AchillesComeHome

Summary
He has waited far too long for this day, and yet when it comes, he is not ready at all. Love is a child’s hope — one he finds himself helplessly entangled with. There is truth to the matter of true love, he believes, but there is also danger. Darkness that lurks around every corner, a fate he fears will repeat. And he cannot bear losing you for a second time.
Or, in which, you were once the wife of Dream of the Endless until your sudden and violent death. Eons later, you have reincarnated and he finds you again — with no memory of him or what happened when you were his wife. And he’s terrified that reminding you will be a repeat of fate.

Summary
“He’s not really scary.”
Hob glances at the girl beside him. “Who isn’t?”
“My brother. He likes people to think he is. It’s… easier, I think.”
“Easier than what?”
Her gaze flicks to him, mismatched eyes catching in the moonlight. For a heartbeat, she looks older than the strange, restless girl she appears to be. “Than letting people see the soft parts. The parts that hurt. The vulnerable, gooey ones. If you’re frightening, people don’t touch you. Don’t want to know you. They don’t get close enough to break you.”
AKA: Hob Gadling sees much more than he lets on, befriends a couple of anthropomorphic entities, considers crimes and maybe saves his Stranger along the way.

Summary
“You cannot help me,” Dream rasps. “Not this time.”
Hob rocks back, furrowing his brow and defies this.
“Begging your pardon, King of Dreams, but I’ll decide what I can or cannot do, thank you,” Hob chides, lifting his brow in soft warning.
Or the one where Hob steals yarn, fights an old (immortal) lady and accidentally messes everything up fantastically. (but in a good way). [And the author's frantic attempt to make better sense of the horrible mess of Season 2 Vol 2]

Nothing is Lost, Nothing is Created, Everything is Transformed by MwnPlqn

Summary
Based on a comment I saw under a post on TikTok that asked for a fix-it fic, so here it is!
I have only watched the show and therefore know nothing about the comics. You have been warned."Morpheus stopped himself from taking his sister’s hand at the very last second. It was a sudden and significant shift in his realm that had stopped him. A great foe had been defeated. He immediately assumed that the fate of the mortal woman who had invaded the Dreaming had been sealed, but his mind could not pinpoint who had managed to take her down."
In which Morpheus is saved by those closest to him moments before he gives up on his existence.

Summary
‘What do you want from me?’
she shouted with a look.
‘A question that exists to be sure.’ he answered in silence, leaning his cheek on his hand.
‘Then let me go.’
she pulled her arms even closer to her chest.
‘I am incapable of that.’
the hint of a solemn smile did not escape her.
A raindrop fell on her nose, breaking the intense lock between them long enough for Nuala to decide there was only one thing left to be done…run.Series

//Nuala squeaks when she realizes Dream has lain his head down on her lap.
“My lord?!” Nuala asks, her whole body feeling as if it were on fire . Could one self-combust in the Dreaming? She certainly felt like she was.
“Hmm?” Dream hums as if there were absolutely nothing out of the ordinary. As if this was something he did all the time.
“I—are you comfortable, my lord?” Nuala asks, hoping Dream cannot hear her how fast her pulse is jackrabbiting.
“I am,” Dream answers. “You may begin.”//
Jsjsjsjs this was sweet even if Dream was mourning a past relationship.
