Summary
A happier take on The Sandman comic issue, “Sunday Mourning” from “The Wake”, aka “Hob Gadling goes to the Ren Faire (and hates every second of it)”
Thirty years ago, Hob promised his now ex-girlfriend, Gwen, that they would stay friends and that they would meet every few years at the Ren Faire to catch up. This was despite the fact that Hob hates Ren Faires to the very depths of his soul.
This time, Dream goes with him.

Summary
Set during the events of Hob Gadling's trip to the Renaissance Faire in "The Wake".
Hob falls asleep at the Renaissance Faire and dreams of a beach. His dead friend, Dream, is there, as his brother, Destruction. Except Dream, it turns out, is not dead and Hob is not dreaming but is, in fact, really on a beach on the other side of the world.
This is a hell of a thing to have to explain to his (probably soon-to-be-ex) girlfriend.

Summary
"So, what's the thing that makes you poor company, stranger?" Morpheus opens his mouth -- it is none of your business, my heart is broken, I am contemplating going home and committing suicide because I am clearly and patently not designed to be loved in any meaningful way -- but is interrupted by Hob's cheerful continuation, "Because I've just been dumped by my girlfriend of two years."

Summary
Going broke was never something Hob Gadling had intended to do. In fact, with barely enough money in his account to pay for a hotel and a storage unit, he goes to have a pint with Johanna Constantine, who offers to put him up in the remote and mysterious Dream House, with a long and bloody history. And has been in the Constantine family for centuries, meaning that Johanna has the keys. Hob does not take much convincing. What could go wrong, really?
~
What started out as a Haunting of Hill House AU has now spiraled into so much more, as Hob navigates love, loneliness and his own psyche as he realizes he might not be able to trust his reality.
