Summary
Dream is given a second chance. Terrified by loneliness and drowning in humanity, he goes to find the only fixed point he has ever known. Hob Gadling.
Dream found himself explaining everything, the words tumbling out of him in a halting confession. The Kindly Ones, the choice to end or change. His siblings’ intervention.
“They… found a compromise. This form, it is mortal-adjacent. I must eat, sleep and breathe. I feel the cold. I grow weary.” He looked down at his own hands, pale against the dark fabric of his trousers. “I am, in all ways that matter now, very much like you, Hob Gadling. My body will not age. It cannot die. Unless I choose to accept my sister’s gift. I am… suspended. Between what I was and what men are.”

Summary
“So obviously, I'm a little older than the average, uh, sugar baby,” He coughs into his hand, mouth suddenly drying out around the words. “Not that I think that there's an age limit on this, but… anyway, your profile strongly implied that you might be interested in somebody more mature?”
Forty-something sugar baby Hob and his much younger daddy Morpheus: the saga begins.

Summary
"He does not wish your friendship, Hob Gadling. He wishes to bed you."
"He—" Hob cuts himself off, head tilting slightly like the new information needs just a second to process. Dream wonders when he began to find this kind of confusion more endearing than a test of his patience.
In which Dream begins to feel things and it goes about as well as you would expect.
