Summary
"Dream King," Hob inclines his head. "I am not here to harm, nor am I here at the behest of my Lord, the Lightbringer." He meets the King's piercing blue eyes and has to grit his teeth to hold in a gasp at how sharply they cut into his chest.
That look trails from Hob's head to his toes slowly, scouring, then back up. Judging. Assessing. "So why do you dog my steps, Hellknight?"

Summary

Someone, somehow, takes advantage of the situation and ends up with more than they expected.---

Summary
Hob Gadling was halfway through his third drunken karaoke rendition of "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" when he learned that he had a husband.
A husband who was apparently trapped in a jar.
In 1389, Hob married a man in his dreams, a lover conjured only by his imagination -- or so he thought. Five hundred years later, a mysterious ransom letter has Hob questioning everything he knew about his dream husband, who coincidentally disappeared from his dreams seventy years ago.
Several miles away, trapped in a glass bowl, said husband is really regretting letting his marriage be only a story in dreams.

Summary
“You are late. I thought it was impolite to keep friends waiting?”
“We’re not friends. We’re not… anything. You’ve made that perfectly clear.”Dream does not get fishbowled and does turn up for the 1989 meeting, only to find that Hob does not appear.
Hob has not been not captured or detained; he just stands him up.
Or — what if Hob was a little less of a forgiving, patient cinnamon roll, and a little bit more of an salty bitch and went: ”You abandon me in the 1889, I will ghost you in 1989.”Inspired by Cat People (Putting Out Fire) by David Bowie

After eons of serving the needs of his function, and his Dreamers, Dream finds himself with a choice, and that choice is centered around his closest, and sole friend, Hob Gadling.

Or.
