    Summary

    Hob was not a list person.

    But when he found himself in a situation he didn’t understand, the first thing he did was attempt to make a list of things he knew.

    One.  He was dreaming.  Sort of.
    Two.  He was a cat.

    This was going to be a very long day.

    Summary

    “You bring me low,” Dream whispers against his neck, licks along the reddened lines he’s left. “You make me burn for you. I enter this place and feel what it is to approach godliness."

     

    Hob Gadling plants some poppies, pays his servers overtime, and navigates the complicated maze that is an anthropomorphic representation of dreaming with PTSD.

    Takes place after "aulon raid."

    Summary

    In the summer of 1895, Morpheus Sanfin – poet, omega, and disappointment to his wealthy father – flees England on the heels of Oscar Wilde's imprisonment for gross indecency out of fear that he will be condemned for the same unnatural urges.

    Seeking a new life in America away from the stifling hand of his father and the expectations of his sex, Morpheus sets out for California with Hob Gadling, a mustang driver who agrees to guide him, not knowing that along the way they will encounter natural wonders, the ghosts of their pasts, and perils that will force Morpheus to reconcile with both his sex and his feelings for his new companion.

    Summary

    He never did summon her for much more than to attend to his personal pleasures or using her powers, so as to not tire him. She had grown accustomed to it, his coldness, his neglect, accustomed to live as a wife who did not had a husband, as a Queen only in title, not in function – there was very little she could do, even as a goddess.

    But after countless centuries bound in a loveless marriage, and a century old imprisonment, Morpheus seems to have reconsidered much of his treatment to Phaethusa, a bride he never courted, merely accepted.

    Summary

    "It means maiden, mother, and crone. It means home and humility. It means pride and power. It means death and loss. To be woman is to be life. From woman come all men, and from our pain comes their strength. It means secrets hidden beneath the skin and held sacred. To be woman is to hurt, daughter." The story no man hears.

    Summary

    There's no such thing as just a dream. Not when you're human, and most certainly not when you're a nightmare, and the first thing you ever see are the eyes like stars of Dream of the Endless.

    "Now: live," Morpheus orders, his voice the echo of thunder exploding miles and eons away.

    For the creature standing before the Dreamlord, those words are the first breath of air after an eternity spent drowning, the first taste of warmth when all he's ever known is ice, the sweet relief of water as it kills the fire consuming his innards.

    "Who am I?" the new nightmare asks.

    "I wove your flesh from the stuff of the Dreaming. I molded you into this form, sculpted you into your function. I am your master," Morpheus says as he paces around his new creation, admiring his craftsmanship. "You are humanity's dark mirror, a thing of darkness, unborn and undying. I name you: the Corinthian."
