Summary
“So obviously, I'm a little older than the average, uh, sugar baby,” He coughs into his hand, mouth suddenly drying out around the words. “Not that I think that there's an age limit on this, but… anyway, your profile strongly implied that you might be interested in somebody more mature?”
Forty-something sugar baby Hob and his much younger daddy Morpheus: the saga begins.

Summary
"Dream?"
The name falls off the man’s lips, hushed and breathless, and it stirs an answering feeling in Morpheus’ chest, something tugging deep behind the cage of his ribs, an incomprehensible yearning to be this man’s Dream.
"I fear you mistake me for another,” he says, at last.
*
Or, retired Morpheus tries to navigate human life without the foundation of his memories, and a chance encounter is the catalyst he needs to find himself.

Summary
It lies not in our power to love or hate,
For will in us is overruled by fate.
When two are stripped, long ere the course begin,
We wish that one should love, the other win;And one especially do we affect
Of two gold ingots, like in each respect:
The reason no man knows; let it suffice
What we behold is censured by our eyes.
Where both deliberate, the love is slight:
Who ever loved, that loved not at first sight?Christopher Marlowe

Yes, Hob is far too close. Close to the mark. Has anyone, anything, ever seen Dream like this? Not just observed him, but looked deep into his very nature? Understood him so? Has he ever been worthy of being treasured such?

Summary
The elevator doors open, and who should be waiting on the other side, but Morpheus Infinito himself. Hob tries not to groan too loudly as Morpheus enters the elevator and turns his back to him, standing perfectly straight, and looking directly in front of him. Hob should have expected this, Morpheus really gave it to him the last time they saw each other— nearly a week ago. Since then he’d completely avoided him, barring him from being on his surgeries. Hob couldn’t say for sure if this was Morpheus needing space to think (he did seem like the type), or if this was Morpheus deciding that he wanted nothing to do with him.
A loud, screeching noise startles Hob out of his thoughts. He looks up to see that Morpheus had grabbed a hold of the emergency stop, yanking it to momentarily stop the elevator from moving. Hob frowns, unsure if this is actually allowed, and if they’ll be able to get the elevators working again.
“Robert,” he says, hand still squeezing the knob. “It appears I owe you an apology.”

Summary
Hob responded to the DM he got from @TheArtofDreaming because it was by far the most interesting response he had gotten within 48 hours of posting that video with him saying he would do a fake relationship call. Wordsmithing aside, the fact that Dream had just laid out what was pretty much the exact kind of gig Hob had wanted when he made the silly thing was just serendipitous.
Honestly, at first pass Hob had not at all expected @TheArtofDreaming to be AMAB. It had been a pleasant surprise. Not that Hob had lied about his sexuality–no, he was as 3 of a 3 on the Kinsey Scale as one could get–but after Eleanor it has just been… harder. With people who presented more feminine. Not for lack of interest, but there was a lot of baggage to sort through.
In contrast, texting with Dream was easy: he was engaging, responsive, thoughtful, and quick-witted. They were both passionate about what they did, for work and for play. So, yeah, lunch seemed like a great idea and maybe he could end up being friends with one of his favorite museum’s curators! Maybe he could even get a behind-the-scenes tour someday.
Oh, what simple goals that naive Hob had set.

Summary
“You do not write with the others?” she finally asked him after three days of Hob reading the books in the house.
“Sadly, I am not much of a writer. I print books and I read them. The goddess herself neglected to bless me with her words,” he’d responded, smiling up at her. She was wearing a beautiful, white gown, flowing gracefully down to the floor. Elegant white gloves covered her hands and arms, while her hair was intricately braided in what Hob assumed was inspired by the women of Ancient Greece.
“Have you never tried before?”
“A few times, when I was younger and far more arrogant. Wrote a poem for a—” Hob stopped short, not knowing how exactly to refer to his stranger. Was he a friend? A casual acquaintance?
“A special person,” she finished for him.
“A special person,” Hob said.

Summary
When Crown Prince Morpheus is summoned to his father's court for the summer, he expects it to be just as tedious and aggravating as any other season spent in the Dreaming's capitol. What he doesn't expect is an attempted kidnapping, a successful kidnapping, uncovering designs on the Dreaming's throne, and a handsome esquire he really isn't supposed to fall in love with.
How can he not, when Hob Gadling sees him for who he is, and not just his station? How can he not, when Hob is willing to burn down the world for him?

Dream starts to slip out of his grasp and Hob can’t keep the whining accusation out of his voice. “What-- you’re just gonna leave?!”
Dream blinks slowly. “That depends.”
“On what?”
The smallest, barely there, wickedest smirk ever to cross a face. “If you intend to let me.”

Summary
Lord Morpheus is the eldest child of the Earl and Countess of Endless, an ancient family hiding huge debts behind a fine name. As an omega, Morpheus cannot inherit his father's title or the family's ancestral home. His function is simple: secure a match that is both socially advantageous and financially viable, thus securing the future of the estate and the title of Earl of Endless for his offspring. The family believe that their troubles are solved when Morpheus dutifully (if reluctantly) becomes engaged to his wealthy cousin, Patrick. However, all their carefully laid plans are thrown into chaos when Patrick drowns on the ill-fated Titianic.
Now Morpheus is navigating treacherous waters of his own and discovering how tight the ties of family loyalty bind him. Will the charming and handsome Duke of Crowborough prove his saviour? Or will the wealthy yet odious Sir Roderick Burgess ensnare Morpheus in plans of his own?
Meanwhile, the family’s new chauffeur, one Robert Gadling, is muddying the waters of Morpheus’s existence even further- where is the line between a servant and a friend? Can Hob help Morpheus see that life exists beyond the confines of family and function?
