To die, to sleep—
To sleep—perchance to dream.

Dream of the Endless. The Sandman. Lord Morpheus. #mojo
"Your father," he said. "But not just nightmares, memories."

He did not step closer to her, nor move. He stood perfectly still. Mouth cracked open.

"Is it Arkham or Jester who haunts you?"

He looked at her like he was looking through her. Always a faint recognition in his eyes. He was dream so he knew her dreams. Blinking slowly, as he recollected the ones she spoke of, he lowered his head, gazing at her.

It was a start. Cold rain rolled in, threatening to turn into snow. Dream nodded at those who glanced at him, and they suddenly felt drowsy, deciding to nap on the train instead of wonder who he reminded them of.

"I can search the dreams once we arrive. I may not know how to track the vampire down, but I will be able to inform you which nightmares are my creations, and which ones are memories of those who have been terrorized by it."

Maybe that was a challenge. Morpheus followed her to the platform and explained, "Since vampires cannot dream, all I have to go on are the nightmares they are inflicting in others from their own fears. They stood out as genuine experiences, not something seen from a film or read in a book."

Many escape to seek out your world. Some of my nightmares have also been known to wreak havoc with certain demons. If my nightmares are wayward, that I would be able to assist with.”

After letting his consciousness focus in her on, his inhaled deeply.

“Your work,” he echoed. More of her dreams flashed before her, reminding him of her essence, what made her unique.

“Yes. You hunt demons. Such a profession is prone to more nightmares. Lucifer’s realm has always been chaos. >

“I said I would help you sleep, but as for nightmares, they have their purpose.”

Or they were supposed to. The Sandman had more than once lost control of a few of his more sinister creations.

“Had one been plaguing you?”

Even Lucifer did not seem as conflicted about leaving all the demons behind. If I were do such a thing, I would need to know someone was here to care for them.”

As for what he himself would do, or if he could find purpose outside the Dreaming, he did not know.

“My siblings are not comparable to me. They do not have those depending on them the way I have my dreams and nightmares. I cannot abandon them. And yet, I see what Destruction did. He left and was able to create, to change his nature. >

Dream was quiet. Staring at the ground as he sat.

“I do not know.”

To both. Though she was correct, the idea was thrown around, it was always something said in passing, not something he ever really put deep thought into.
