Summary
Dream is given a second chance. Terrified by loneliness and drowning in humanity, he goes to find the only fixed point he has ever known. Hob Gadling.
Dream found himself explaining everything, the words tumbling out of him in a halting confession. The Kindly Ones, the choice to end or change. His siblings’ intervention.
“They… found a compromise. This form, it is mortal-adjacent. I must eat, sleep and breathe. I feel the cold. I grow weary.” He looked down at his own hands, pale against the dark fabric of his trousers. “I am, in all ways that matter now, very much like you, Hob Gadling. My body will not age. It cannot die. Unless I choose to accept my sister’s gift. I am… suspended. Between what I was and what men are.”

Summary
Hob had been watching Morpheus Endless for a long time now. And he was going to approach him tonight, after the ball.
This was a dangerous dance, he knew that well. Expose his secret to the wrong person - utter ruin, his good name forever tarnished. Imprisonment was a possibility. Death, if he was really unfortunate. But if Morpheus turned out to be the right person to receive such secret... The reward was impossibly high, outweighing the risk in Hob’s foolish mind.
Because he wanted Morpheus. Even if it was wrong. Even if it killed him.

Summary
Hob Gadling, owner of the New Inn, finds a coat, forgotten on a chair, and without much thought, puts it away in the lost and found closet. Unbeknownst to him, the coat belongs to Selkie Dream, who, by the law of the sea, is forced to stay with Hob as long as he has his seal skin. Dream is understandably very unhappy with the situation and is determined to find his coat and escape from his cruel captor. Meanwhile, Hob is just trying to figure out why his handsome guest seems to hate his guts.
