Did His lips kiss here, too? Hob thinks as he trails his mouth down the strong jawline, now thick with a beard instead of the scruff of 1589. Why does He still visit you? Is it to torture me? That I may despair to find where His tongue lingered?

Summary
“And next up in Men’s Doubles, Carlos Moya and Rafael Nadal of Spain versus the surprise pairing of Rob Gadling and Morpheus Andlos for Great Britain.”
“And the surprise doesn’t seem to be going too well, John. Reporters and fans caught the doubles partners shouting at each other during practice just yesterday morning. That can’t be a good sign right before their opening match at the Olympic Games.”
“Definitely not, Gale. They’ve kept their partnership incredibly hush-hush over the past few months—yesterday was the first anyone had seen of them on court as a pair. While there were a few moments where they seemed to work well together, those were overshadowed by the visible tension between the two players.”
“I just wish I was in the room when they made that call: let’s partner the righty with the world’s most elegant one-handed backhand with the lefty whose two-handed shots absolutely pummel the ball across the court. What were they thinking?”
“You have just as much insight as I do.”
The tennis AU only one person asked for and I had to create. I hope there is enough here that if you know fuckall about tennis this will still be fun.

Unfortunately, being the daughter of an Endless meant that 'normal' was pretty much off the table.

Summary
You always dreamed of becoming a successful fashion designer, sharing your creations with the world and bringing honor to your father. But with his severe illness and mounting expenses weighing solely on your shoulders, your plans changed, forcing you to pursue an alternative route. An intriguing offer led you to the elderly Alex Burgess, who immediately employed you as a housemaid for excellent pay. Your compassionate nature and exceptional understanding, however, convinced him to offer you an additional task with doubled compensation: gaining the trust of Dream of the Endless, imprisoned in the family’s basement for over a century. Despite being stunned upon discovering such an otherworldly being stripped of clothing and trapped in a cramped glass sphere, financial necessity for your father’s care compelled your acceptance. As you spoke to this mysterious anthropomorphic personification who never uttered a word, you found yourself drawn into his eyes that seemingly encompassed the entire universe. An ineffable bond formed between you, separated only by a substantial transparent barrier.
You couldn’t have anticipated that what commenced as modest household job would ultimately transform your existence irrevocably.

Summary
From the day he was declared Crown Prince, Morpheus has stood on a pedestal, with everyone who laid eyes on him treating him as something fragile—especially after an incident that left him scarred and wary. Morpheus has long since accepted his duties, and he has always been aware that they include him finding a wife of his station to bear him heirs.
The time for him to take on this responsibility comes in the form of the Summer Solstice Ball, where he is expected to choose and court a maiden from a noble family.
However, after an attack on his carriage leads to a chance encounter with a man named Hob Gadling, the Crown Prince finds that the path to his future has grown uncertain.
To Hob, Morpheus is the monarch he has sworn his life to protect. Beyond his solemn vow as a knight, he has grown to think of the prince as a trusted friend, and Hob would never do anything to cause him distress. So when he realises that there might be another reason for his devotion, Hob reminds himself of his place: he is a knight sworn to protect the Crown Prince. And his future queen and heirs. That is the only path laid out for him.

Summary
“You aggravate me,” Morpheus’ voice rumbles against Hob’s skin, low and breathy, like he can’t help but contradict himself just a bit longer before he pulls away completely.
Morpheus pulls a hand through his hair, neatly getting it back into place and tugging on the lapels of his jacket.
Hob watches, his chest rising and falling visibly as Morpheus, deeming himself presentable again, moves his gaze back to Hob.
“Get on the floor. On your back.”

Summary
"What are dreams without Hope, Robert Gadling?" The Fates suddenly asked him, voices merging into one.
And Hob had to think about it for a moment. He would have said "nightmares", but weren’t they made to kill hope? Nightmares like those of a break-up killed the hope for a long and loving relationship, those of being trapped clashed with the idea of being free. After all, dreams and nightmares were just the two sides of the same coin.
And so, Hob answered.
"Nothing."
