Summary
Hob Gadling is an immortal and that’s all well and good, but he’s also an alpha. He’s not one to push his extra-dimensional love to follow along with human standards of biology, but he’s still an alpha with needs. Dream agrees to play the role of his omega as long as Hob agrees to play a little rough.

Summary
To Hob Gadling, the Corinthian was just a means of distraction. A way to forget about the dark-haired stranger who was truly the arms he wished to fall into. And the Corinthian was more than willing to fulfill that role.

Summary
The meeting in 1889 had not ended with Dream across Hob’s lap, trousers yanked roughly down past his knees and legs clamped in place between Hob’s own. It ended that way this time. “You and your fucking tantrums,” Hob said from above him.

Summary
"Careful little rose, vortex who gave her heart away," the woman is not phased by Rose in the slightest, "you play with fire, you're gonna get burned, missy."
"Rose?" Lyta's panicked voice comes from behind her, "Mrs. Shore isn't answering the phone."
The woman nods. "Better run along now, boy kings disappear all the time."
~
So what if Rose like ACTUALLY does stuff this season? What if she looks for Daniel with the same fervor she looks for Jed? And what if a familiar nightmare gets remade with the sole purpose of helping her out?
Basically, this is a canon compliant turned fix-it, subbing Rose in as the other part of the buddy cop duo

Summary
The Corinthian met Lucifer Morningstar exactly once without Dream’s supervision. It was confusing and he really, really didn't fucking like it. IE: Corinthian is tricked into being alone with a much bigger predator and the predictable happens.

Summary
On their next meeting, Hob realizes the pattern.
The man (vampire? werewolf? some otherworldly being?) comes after Hob every 100 days. The irony of this is not lost on Hob. Of course Hob would end up with not one, but two mysterious otherworldly strangers with a penchant for refusing to give Hob their names, forcing him to come up with nicknames in his head. He can’t very well name them Stranger 1 and Stranger 2 though, so Hob decides that his centennial friend will remain The Stranger, and his new unintended sparring partner is now Murder Stalker.
---
Hob Gadling interrupts The Corinthian in the middle of a murder and explodes him back to The Dreaming. The Corinthian comes back for revenge. Hob keeps finding new ways to blow him up. At some point, it becomes something more.
Aka enemies to fuck-buddies to lovers.
Now with Explicit rating, as of Chapter 4!

Summary
“Hob.” Dream could hear the waver in his voice. His body normally responded to his own desires, but here, it seemed to work against him. His throat was tight. It was all wrong, this was all wrong. This was not how it was supposed to go. “Hob, please.”
Still, his… his friend… ignored his presence.
TLDR;
Hob has started hallucinating his Stranger for the past seventy-odd years. When his Stranger actually turns up, he thinks it's another hallucination. Shenanigans ensue to get the pair on the same page.Updates Every Saturday (usually)

Summary
Hob knows he can manipulate everything in the Dreaming to some extent, however he has never extended it to his own body - had left that to Dream. Knows that sometimes if he loses his focus, whatever he thought up crumbles like so much dreamstuff. But here, in this room, with Dream’s influence so close, with the many times of practice he’s had - he knows he can do it.
He wants to be able to present himself for Dream, dripping cunt on display, an offering twofold. That he offers himself, his pleasure and that he offers his skill, his ability to influence his lover's realm in a way that stays.
A show of his appreciation, his love, his passion.
