Summary
Once Jo gets to know Hob Gadling she realizes just how much of an absolute reckless idiot the immortal can be. She goes back through the family archives and, no joke, there is not a single name, not a single damned name in six hundred bloody years, that is not a variation on the same theme. Robert. Hob. Bobby. Bob. Boh. Rob. Roberto. Bobbie. Gadlen. Gadlind. Gadot. Gadliakis, Gabbing. Garblen. Oh, and Jo's personal favorite, Linggad.
Might as well have been touched by the hand of God for how lucky this Endless-favored fucker has been.
So, just because this is the kind of woman Johanna Constantine is, she makes up the most absurd names she can think of to address Hob by when she is taking the piss out of him. Anything that even vaguely has the syllables or cadence of ‘Robert Gadling’. She has been going for five years straight now and not repeated a one. Proud of that record, she is.
