Summary
Only, she felt loved, under his gaze. Like she was at home, or maybe running away from it to a new life, and he would take her by the hand to lead her there.
“I’m sorry, have we…” she reached out to him, “have we met before…?”
A woman receives an unfamiliar visitor, and the Doctor visits family.

Summary
Abigail Arcane remained in her seat, although she'd turned her body to watch Johanna and Dream on the steps. Her gaze snapped to Matthew when he landed, and she gave him a startled little smile.
"Hi," she said. She lifted up her own cup, tilting it to show him the latte in it. "I don't have anything for you."
"Yeah, uh," Matthew said. "Not really looking for bread. Hey, Abs."
She dropped the cup.

Summary
A man, supine and utterly still, in what might have seemed like a deep sleep, draws in a long slow breath and opens his eyes. He smiles up at the sky, for he knows not much at all, but he knows this:
Hob Gadling is a man of good fortune.
A story about refusing to leave. A story about a quest that spans lifetimes. A story about losing someone, and bringing them back with love.

Summary
The young man turned, and asked, determination and cowardice both flickering in his eyes, “Professor, do you think it’s wicked to help the devil?”
For a moment, Hob thought - and tried to not let his mind dwell overly long on an entity he had long thought demonic.Is it wicked to help the devil? Less than to love one, surely.
A story in which Hob becomes a history professor a century earlier, Alex receives some inspiration towards bravery, and Dream is very grateful indeed.

“Yeah?” He said, trying his best to sound like he didn't give a single damn about whatever Anathema had to say. Anathema, who was very used to this by now, and swiftly climbing the ranks of living people well-equipped to both see through and handle Anthony J Crowley, did not bother mincing her words.
“Adam's missing. Last seen yesterday evening, as best we can tell. His friends are looking for him the human way and running interference with the university and his parents, in case it's something… esoteric. Also, I have a new prophecy from Agnes that I think is about him, but I haven't quite managed to figure it out just yet. I thought you might know something.”
Crowley's blood ran cold. Well. Colder.
