one star war viewing experience that i think has been totally 100% lost to time / cultural dominance: obi-wan being a mysterious and lowkey dubious figure in a new hope. he’s introduced doing this absolutely terrifying screech (which he never does again? before or since?), in a cloak with his face covered (classic villain coding, also very close to the emperor’s exact look) and this comes after a build up of him being some “old wizard” luke is told is dead, that he shouldn’t be going to see at all—and his dialogue only raises more questions than answers. a big part of it is alec guinness’ expert ptsd performance, of course, but there’s such a real strangeness to obi-wan’s debut. he’s a mentor, but he’s also a hardened warrior, also a deliverer of some incredibly ominous lines, also a disembodied voice, an undead, unkillable entity. i don’t think it was some accident that the “fake twist” used to hide the real twist in empire was that obi-wan killed luke’s father, is all i’m saying really. i think there’s an undercurrent in anh that, as the jedi/obi-wan/star war grew in popular culture and the light side/dark side lore got more ironed out, isn’t really accessible now. but it’s fun
this is one of the most obvious, clearly intentional parallels in all of star wars & it just bowls me over every time. who's gonna pick you up when you're stranded? who's behind the hood?

hello yeah so basically everything i write and draw about sandman takes place in this AU that's been continually developed since, like, 2018. only a small fraction of said AU is actually written down, but it's still a lot of fics, so i wanted to make one big navigational post
this post will be updated as i write more, so if you rb this for later, pls check back on this original post! i might totally reorganize this lol
the series mainly focuses on lucifer, dream, and mazikeen throughout sandman (1989), lucifer (2000), and lucifer (2016) comic series, occasionally snagging parts from hellblazer, sandman tv, and other stuff.

Rewatching A Hope in Hell, and seeing how these two interact... I don't know what went on between Lucifer and Dream, but there's no way it was platonic 😏 Or that it ended well, for that matter. Lucifer's sooooo obviously thrilled at the idea of kicking Morpheus' ass, who smirks like a man who knows it's personal...
Heck, even Mazikeen's acting weird with him. She looks like someone who doesn't know how to behave around her spouse's ex lol
I wouldn't be surprised if Dream turned his back on Samael after they were chased off Heaven by the Creator and became Lucifer. When they meet, they ask Morpheus -ironically- if they came to recognize the sovereignty of Hell or join forces with them, to which Morpheus replied they know his feelings about that. Of course, Lucifer being Lucifer, they would never forgive him for not standing by them, if they were lovers or even friends then....
It would also explain why Morpheus refused to help Orpheus, when he asked him to speak for him to Lucifer/Hades. If Lucifer felt betrayed by Morpheus, the price they'd ask Morpheus for such a favor would be probably too high for him to pay...
Please give your Lucifer and Dream a pair of cats!
*clears throat and answers another 2 year old ask*
well i actually have an au in which lucifer gets an emotional support cat named Lysander ("it's lysander, mazikeen. not lysie, not fluffy. lysander.") it's a tabby american forest cat
i never really thought about giving one to dream but after a moment's thought i decided a quick sketch was enough

My favorite space twins, frolicking in Lake Country. In the style of Studio Ghibli. Because we all need good vibes.
Edit: <3 what a warm welcome to tumblr, thanks for all the likes and reblogs! Also, whole time when I was making this, they were running around madly going, “LUUUKE” “LEEIAAAAA” like the two girls from Totoro in their extra-shouty-for-no-reason pre-schooler scenes.
the rudest most helpful thing anyone ever said to me is "why do you keep hurting your own feelings long after [the person who once hurt you] probably forgot about it" like literally just dear god you've split me open so neatly my entire soul is just flopping around on the ground between us now but thank you
Just fyi if you're autistic/adhd and struggle specifically with this sort of thing, please know what what might be happening is something called perseveration, which is a common neurodivergent behavior that can include, among other things, revisiting emotions repeatedly and being unable to break loose from processing or managing stressful events.
Don't keep hurting your own feelings. But don't feel bad if you get stuck there, either. Something else could be going on.
I've found EMDR therapy immeasurably helpful in turning things from 'reliving bad thing' into 'remembering bad thing happened' without the emotional grip on me. My brain used to be full of thumbtacks I kept stepping on and now it's... not.
