inlovewithmycar) & YOU

I am Dream of the Endless.

[Crowley resists the urge to crawl out of his own skin when Dream steps closer. Sure, he's probably not as actively malevolent as the likes of Pollution or War, but he was the embodiment of dreams.
Which meant that he could get inside anyone's head. Have a little rummage around. Make them see anything.
Crowley decides very quickly not to get on this one's bad side.]
...Never replaced glass before...?
[He aims for casual. He's good at casual. Goes for something Dream seems curious about. Maybe he'll lose interest once he realizes Crowley prefers doing things the (mostly) human way.]

[ said almost offhandedly while he watches Crowley work. he doesn't step closer though, which Crowley likely appreciates. ]
I have, though not in such a manner. Sand is one of my tools, after all.
no subject
[Something about the name - Oh for fuck's sake.]
Hang on a tic.
[Crowley whips out his phone, typing in a quick message to Vanessa, before pocketing it again.]
Anyway. Sand, eh? Like in the song?

Song?
no subject
[Crowley hesitates. There's a little radio inside the greenhouse he took from an electronics shop. The whole thing turned out to be a waste of time; it doesn't play anything but static unless Crowley concentrates really hard, expending constant miracles which is, ultimately, counterproductive to why he's here in the first place. The first few bars to one song, however, shouldn't be to draining.
He clicks his fingers.
The first tinny notes, crackling with static, float from inside the greenhouse. Mister Sandman sings a cheery voice, bring me a dream tonight...]

after several excruciatingly long seconds of staring, he finally glances towards the radio, saving Crowley from his regard. ]
Ah. Yes. That is one of my names, though it is certainly older than this song.
no subject
['Relatively recent' being less than a century old.]
So the whole sand bit is actually a thing, eh? Funny what carries over.
[Then again, he supposes, Death doesn't need a scythe nor War a sword. It's just the way human brains shape these concepts like a collective ball of metaphysical Playdoh.]
