Dream & the Dreamer ᶜʳᵒˢˢᵒᵛᵉʳ | Meet Me In The Dark
CC Available!
And here's a new video! Sandman is absolutely one of my favorite shows now and I am anxiously awaiting season 2! And Nia is one of my favorite characters that I have yet to do anything with so I figured why not make a video for Dream and Dreamer?
I already have tons more ideas for them, so expect more in the future. I was going to wait until I had finished the other videos before I released this one, but I can't wait any longer to share this with you guys! So let me know what you think! :) Story below!
P.S. I also adore this song and thought it fit perfectly for Dream. There was a video made by moondust of him and Johanna to this song and I shall link it for those who are curious.

P.P.S I generally split up the scenes in my video even though in my mind there is a chronological order. Would you guys be interested in me posting an alternate video with the full "scenes" so to speak in the correct order?
Plot: Nia is just coming into her powers as a dream vortex. She finds her way to Morpheus' realm and throne room. He explains what she is and what it means. They meet for dinner and he thinks it's just another learning opportunity for her, while she believes he asked her on a date. She reveals this, embarrassed and it's the first time he thinks of her in that way. He thinks on it and then decides that he does like her. He tells her so.
They date and are quite happy together. They understand each other better than anyone else ever could.
Morpheus is captured by humans and held captive, cut off from his power.
She knows that he's been taken and looks to her dreams for answers. She manages to reach her mother from beyond the grave and asks if she can transfer her dream powers to Morpheus so that he can escape. She's willing to do it, even if it means she isn't the Dreamer anymore. Her mother tells her that there's no way around it and she doesn't have that choice.
She manages to astral project to him, though she's unable to do anything to help. She reveals that she's trying to transfer her powers to him so he can escape. It makes him sad that she is pursuing that path as he doesn't want her to lose that part of herself, but he also knows that the world is in danger if he remains disconnected from the dreaming.
She returns and tries to physically affect the world from her astral form. Just enough to free him. The strain is too much and the effort hurts her, she wakes up, having failed. She continues trying, even though it's weakening and hurting her. She is drained and each attempt leaves her worse then before.
She goes into the dreaming and tries again, hoping that the location will give her more strength and help her succeed. She appears before him again and manages to break the glass of his prison; he is free. The first thing he does is use his sand to break her connection so that she doesn't hurt herself further. She slides back from the force of it. A nightmare/Evil Brainiac 5 witnesses the entire thing and wants to use it to his advantage as he doesn't want the King of Dreams to return. He saw Nia using her powers but doesn't know the outcome of the attempt.
It doesn't take long for Nia to realize what the nightmare is up to and he attacks her when she confronts him. He locks her up, hoping to siphon and use her powers. Morpheus is still regathering his strength from being imprisoned for a hundred years - time flows differently for them and they can connect across and despite it through the dreaming.
Morpheus finds her in her dreams, wanting to talk to her. Morpheus sees one of her nightmares about her own imprisonment and she wakes in terror. He's furious that anyone would hurt her and hurt her so much that she didn't want to speak to him about it. She keeps brushing it off because she doesn't want him to feel guilty for having to take time to recover. He offers to deal with the problem.
He finds the nightmare/Evil Brainiac 5, who instantly knows who he is and what is coming for him. He had hoped that he wouldn't survive his imprisonment. Morpheus destroys him and returns to Nia. He tells her that it's over and that she can sleep. He keeps the nightmare away.
