Summary
Contrary to the popular belief in all the realms, especially the realm of AO3 on Earth, Morpheus and Hob can be very sensible about their relationship. Or at least about the fact that they should be in a relationship :D
***
They dance in the darkened living room, among empty glasses, pizza boxes and sushi boxes, and leftovers of healthier food choices intended for the more sensible creatures among them. Morpheus closes his eyes and after the initial clumsy minute, he manages to follow Hob's cues smoothly. It's not difficult, he is very much attuned to Hob by now, the song is not fast and it is mostly just a gentle swaying.
...
He rests his chin on Hob's shoulder and lets himself be held close. It doesn't feel like a mere absence of memory, it's like something he has never truly done. He surrenders all control. There are no decisions to be made, no responsibilities, no crushing loneliness... only slow movement and spinning around, warmth spreading throughout his body all the way to his toes and fingertips, and Hob's palm sliding from his waist a bit lower.
Why would any sensible creature not want to dance?
