Summary
She'd spent her life in song. She'd never really known there was more than music. As the worm in her brain opens her mind, the people in her company open her heart. And the past she'd never known unites her with a future she couldn't imagine. Something had always beckoned her beyond the Sword Coast and now all that may hold her to it is the people she'll leave behind.
A wizard with a secret. An elf born in lies. Both vampires in their way, sucking pieces of her away until she's empty inside.
Somewhere between magic and darkness, the blood beats true. She'll have to decide what powers her heart. And who is worthy of holding it.
(romance - seat of the pants style)

Summary
A deep unease settled within Sam’s core, breaths of moistened air gasped and stolen more than they were indulged and savored. He sauntered, hands shoved deep in his pockets, on grass lined pavement, where blades lay sharp and overgrown. They then peeked out of their confines and joined him there, out on the sidewalk, bringing company to early morning solitude.
Perhaps that is why he enjoyed the manor’s outskirts, he mused, bottom lip worried between his teeth. These areas, so raw and unfiltered, thrived free from attentive staff and uniformity and pesky shears. Mr. Lamb would have a fit about it, no doubt, but it was during those very fleeting, stolen moments that Sam truly came to life.
In which Sam Bourbon thinks. That's never good.

Summary
E così fu: la voce di Calliope creò il suo nome; la mia accettazione di esso lo consacrò. Un nome che già conteneva la sua tragedia e la sua grandezza e non servì dire altro.
Il nome di Orfeo era stato scelto.
E con esso, il suo destino. -

Summary
The Dreaming stands, but Dream... Dream is gone.
In the aftermath of the assault on the Dreaming, the Kindly Ones delivered their judgement, their punishment - for spilling blood - and yet, Dream is gone... but not yet returned. Death does not understand why. Endless remain... and yet Dream... is just gone.
Only because the Kindly Ones did not take his life that day. No. It's not much of a punishment if it was what he craved most.
No, instead, they trap him in an unending nightmare - living the moment he killed his son over and over again. Until he breaks, until he begs, until the end of time - Dream doesn't know. He just knows there's no escape. There's no help coming. He's alone.
And every day that he kills his son - just to wash the blood away again and again... He desires for this to end, he would beg for death, he wallows in despair, and he worries he's becoming delirious. The touch of his siblings reside in him, but he accepts they will never come for him. He deserves this. It's his punishment.
His siblings don't care - he tells himself... unaware they don't even know he's alive, and if they did - none of them, not even Desire, would agree.

Summary
**Ongoing**
Orpheus investigates the other manor attendees, finding special interest in a gruff prospector. With Campbell, will it turn into something more or flutter to nothing at all?“I know you miss that composer,” Campbell’s rasp filled the quiet room after a moment of silent tension. “He left you high and dry.”
With apprehension and sudden fear, Orpheus’ face drained of any color it had once had. How did he know that—? How did he know of his and Kreiburg’s excursion? How could he possibly have guessed that without researching Orpheus himself in depth. The fact Norton brought up Kreiburg at all is a mystery— and it frightened him. The societal implications should he be blackmailed by the prospector. He had no doubt the other would do it for money. On the other hand, would someone really believe someone of his status over his own…? A small tidbit of relief sank through him however arrogant it may be.
“You just confirmed it for me,” hummed Norton with a condescending laugh. “Silence says it all. You’re too soft for someone coldhearted like Kreiburg or someone busy like me. But I can still fill that missing piece for you just fine.”

Summary
He found her light irresistible. It shone brighter against his eyes than any sun, than any galaxy he traveled to. It intrigued him, both in body and mind. His body betrayed him though. Being drawn to her light awakened the most insatiable part of him, the overwhelming need to join with her, to pleasure her, to keep her all to himself.
He’d been here before and it did not end well. It became one of his biggest regrets in his eternal existence. Could he possibly let it happen again? He fortified himself, prepared to disappear and leave her and never return…

Summary
Is it possible to mourn a person that’s still alive?
Florian had always been an observant person. Working as a Fire Investigator was not an easy job and any small slip-up could result in a terrible tragedy. Sometimes this did make the man seem a little intrusive, or a little skittish at times but Florian didn’t care.
Coming to Oletus Manor to investigate a few fires was Florian’s original plan, hoping to seek out the rumored aformented fires in the area, but what Florian kept on missing weren’t just fires… or a few burning buildings.
But what if it was somebody in front of him this entire time.

Summary
"Dear Diary... yawn... The most peculiar thing happened today! Just when everything was running smooth as my best dreams, in the House (and my nap schedule was perfect), this mortal shows up at our doorstep! Can you believe it? Not a shade, but a living, breathing mortal!
And get this - he got this weird glowing symbol I've never seen before, AND he seem to know everybody's business! Even the stuff about... scribbles sleepily... you know, all those secrets we try to keep under wraps. Lord Hades is not going to like this one bit... though maybe I can catch a quick nap before he finds out..."It is a story about how a fan finds himself among his favourite characters in reality, experiencing a whirlwind of different emotions simultaneously - from joy to depression - not knowing what awaits next or why he ended up here in the first place.

Summary
Aila was never a normal child. Being the offspring of Lucifer Morningstar was a guarantee of that, but only child of the devil or not doesn't change that her mother wants nothing to do with her - past, present or apparently future.
All Aila wants is to understand her place and purpose in the world - why she was born... prompting her to go in search of her father - a man that doesn't even know she exists. Of course, the last thing Aila expects is him to be an Endless - one without his memories.
But before she can even dive into that, she meets his nightmare, discovers her life and possible purpose far more intertwined with the Endless than not, and promptly - accidentally - sends herself and the Corinthian back to Greek times... where she'll get the chance to meet her entire family - and her brother.
Aila would have preferred to have been normal.

Summary
In a strange coffee shop beyond time, Morpheus meets Paige, a lost and lonely Dreamer troubled by her forgotten past. Together, they encounter familiar faces and embark on a heartfelt journey of friendship, healing, and self-discovery.
Contains spoilers for the Sandman series finale ("A Tale of Graceful Ends") and the show in general. Which absolutely wrecked me emotionally. So. You know. I had to write a nice little epilogue for it.
