Summary
“Are you ashamed?”
Disbelief stains Dream’s voice, and he can feel the anger starting to rise, bright and molten, under the incredulity. He sculpted the Corinthian’s form by hand, carefully, lovingly, gave him back the shape he knew the nightmare favored – only to have the Corinthian choose to hide himself away. Here. In the Dreaming.
But before he can say anything else, the nightmare laughs, dry and humorless. “Wasn’t that the point?” he bites back, bitterness seeping into his voice. “Didn’t you make me remember so I’d be ashamed? So I’d understand why you hate me?” He pauses, pressing his lips together into a thin line as he looks away. “It’s ah, pretty damn ingenious, I’ll give you that. Dial up the love and loyalty, make me want to be good, and leave a nice little reminder tucked away in my head of why I’ll never be good enough.”

Summary
He’s not able to fight the compulsion for long. It tears the words out of him, grating and stuttering, but still far, far too clear.
“I love him,” the Corinthian grits out, to his own growing horror. “I love him so much it hurts.”
“Aww.” Desire’s red lips curl into a smile. “Doesn’t that feel better?”

Summary
"He's not little."
Dream stops in surprise and looks down.
"In fact, he's bigger than you," the human child continues. "*You're* the little one."
When Dream looks back up, nonplussed, the Corinthian is smirking sharply at him.
"There there, little one," the nightmare drawls, and the dream king's eyes bug out in indignation.

Summary
He'd fought long enough -hard enough- to be free of his creator, escape the Dreaming. He'd gotten a taste of humanity and he blended among the dreamers he now not only haunted in dreams, but within their Waking World. Why now, did his King come find him? Why now, when he'd fought so hard to kill this yearning?

Corinthian is horrible with feelings and so is Morpheus
