Sandman Recs

[bethbethbeth]

Please note that most of these story recommendations were made before I reconsidered my warnings policy (i.e., before I decided to include warnings). Generally speaking, there's little of a dark or violent nature to warn for in these stories, but...caveat lector.



afrai: Whose Names Are Death. (cross-recced in Discworld and Sandman. Death of the Endless in the realm of DEATH. Poignant.)

Bow (bowdlerized on LJ): Death's Avatar (the Gift that Keeps on Taking remix). (HP crossover with Sandman. Snape, Dumbledore . . . and Death. A remix of Lizbee's "Death's Avatar")

Edo no Hana (edonohana on LJ): "The Taste of Honey" (Death, Dream, and maybe more. Haunting and beautiful.)

Eleanor K: Alike in Ignorance (Dream/Hob Gadling, Dream/Desire)

Ellen Fremedon (ellen_fremedon on LJ): All Hearts, Which I By Lacking (Dream/Hob Gadling)

Liz Barr (lizbee on LJ): The Language That God Speaks (Hermione, Snape, Librarian, Dream. Crossover with Harry Potter)

Marks (marksy on LJ): Take Your Brother to Work Day. (Daniel has just become and has always been Dream. Death knows this.)

Mary Borsellino (sharpest_rose on LJ): The boy who gave away his birthday. (Christopher Walker - a boy - and the Endless. m/m)

Pandarus: Where Angels Fear to Tread. (Desire/Dream. "It is the first time that Desire has kissed Dream; although, if truth be told (as certainly it never shall be), it is not the first time that Desire has thought about doing so.")

Tiamat's Child: Peacetimes and Pastorals. (Death and Siegfried Sassoon, Sassoon/Owen implied. In Dream's library.)
