I see a lot of modern au with Hob being experienced in dating and self assured but “I’ve got no chance with him but I’ll still take my shot and try” attitude. Now it’s all good and fun but— please do consider the following: Dream being “You’ve got no chance with me” and Hob being “Oh I’m getting you darlin’” attitudes. Is Dream a few leagues above him? Maybe. Does he stand a chance? Who cares. People who think about chances are the people who don’t actually get shit. Hob decided that he will get Dream on at least a date and oh he will do that. And if he gets more? And boy, he is planning on it, what’s the better!

#Dream is like 'look sister he actually thinks he has a chance with me'#Death be like 'play nice little brother' but also doesn't think Hob stands a chance #And it's not that Dream is truly cruel (although just a bit) (being as pretty as he is gets him a LOT of unwanted attention from people)#(people who are actually-- let's be honest-- beneath his league.)#(mostly intellectually because that's to the most part what Dream cares for)#So it's not that Dream is really cruel although he does come off as a little pretty bitch when he sniffs and tilts his chin up.#'No.' is all he says to Hob. Literally. But Hob is not put off. A pretty thing like that? Besides he knows /real/ stuck up people.#And they sure as hell do not laugh at all the /right/ spots of a play.#ANYWAYS. Hob just doesn't even care if he has a chance. He WILL get a date. Even if it takes a hundred (metaphorically) years.#Dreamling #Hob Gadling #Dream of the Endless #Dream x Hob #Hob x dream #Dream #Hob #The Sandman #buns.hc #buns.all
