    Summary

    It begins, as things often do, with a dream. The dream of one becomes that of dozens, then hundreds. A thousand.
    Humanity dreams, and the Dreaming provides.

    Hob doesn't believe in the whole 'finding your soul's match in dreams' business.

    This doesn't stop him from succeeding at it anyway. Eventually.

    Summary

    When Dream doesn't show up for their appointment in 1989, Hob decides to devote a part of his immortality to looking for his mysterious friend. He is dedicated not to wait and hope for another century for the slim chance of seeing him again.
    Even if he has to bribe, lie and steal, use every trick in the book he's learned in the past 600 years, he will find him.

    After over a century, Dream has almost given up on the hope of ever escaping his prison when help finally shows up in the form of someone least expected, compelling him to re-evaluate the nature of his interest in an old acquaintance.

    Summary

    The manner in which an animal routinely casts off a part of its body (often, but not always, an outer layer or covering), either at specific times of the year, or at specific points in its life cycle.

    The door swings open, and Hob looks up, as automatic as a blink or a breath. He’s not expecting anything. It’s been three months and four days, six hours and thirty-nine minutes, and all he had been told was more than once a century.

    Dream is standing in the doorway.

    He looks like hell.

    Summary

    “... One century from now? Are you sure?”, Hob asks, and his voice is reedy in a way that throws Morpheus all the way back to 1689 - An open wound with a chance of scar tissue, if you let it.

    Morpheus doesn’t want to tell him ‘I may not come next century’ to rip off the band-aid quickly. Certainly, he’s never going to tell him 'you could be the reason I do.'

    On the nature of hope, history, and getting through 'till their next date... In 2089.
