bloom, in the bitter snow by astrhae for redmeanslove (twosoulsinonehome)
Fandoms: The Sandman (TV 2022)
09 Mar 2023

Summary
“I could, you know?” Hob blurts out, the horror and fear cresting as his thoughts catch up. He stamps it down with brazen confidence and no small amount of madness.
His Stranger frowns. “Find flaws in yourself?”
“No.” The bastard, Hob thinks, impossibly, dangerously fond. “I could go. As your date.” He clears his throat. Too late to back out. “Pretend to be.”
“You jest.”
“I’m not. We’re strangers, right? If this goes south – you’ve got nothing to lose.” Chattering to cover up, and covering up to dig an even deeper grave. That, apparently, is Hob’s specialty. He shrugs, and hides his twisted smile behind the bouquet he’s tying up. “There’re a million other florists in London.”

Or, a flowershop AU featuring fake dating, a conspiracy, and museum exhibitions.

Summary
He stared at you, his critical gaze taking in your pitiful state. Abused for hundreds of years, flowers blossoming across your skin. This was much too cruel an outcome, even for him. Like a dying land, you to have had much taken from you and yet the human heart of greed knows no bounds. They take and take and take, not knowing when to stop. Or perhaps they never cared.
He once asked his sister why she left you to your gate; what stops her from taking you to your final resting place?
But Death smiles softly, gently, before taking Dream’s hand in both of hers.
Hope, dear brother. She smiles at him with patience and understanding. She still has hope.

Summary
What a vexing man. Luckier than he deserves, audacious too, but a mystery.
Now, starved of contact, cut off from his realm and Lucien, Dream realises that perhaps it would be prudent for him to swallow his pride and forgive the man. He likely hadn't understood the gross overstepping of his station that he'd committed, by daring to call an Endless his friend, claiming him to be lonely, as if Dream were the one in need of companionship.
Still, he rather misses the mortal, as much as one such as he can.
Dream's perspective on his time in imprisonment. Hob just wants to see his friend again.

Summary
On a summer's afternoon in 1989, Hob Gadling's apartment is visited by a white-chested raven with an invitation in its beak.
~~
or: the quintessential fishbowl rescue fic, except I have no regards for canon and thought it would be interesting to examine what Hob's life might have looked like in the wake of Dream's imprisonment. Hope you enjoy!
