Summary
In a different universe, a different realm, another Dream of the Endless meets another Robert Gadling. In a world where magic never left the realm, where dragons roam the lands and where science and magic are married rather than apart, this facet of Dream is not so heavily burdened by his function, and this Hob does not gain immortality as part of a wager.
But some pieces of the story do not change across the universes. Dream is still captured by Roderick Burgess. Hob Gadling will still lose his family, and later his wife and child to tragedy. But they will always meet, as they were meant to, and in this universe, they also get the chance to fall in love.

Summary
The shop next door to The New Inn finally has a new owner, and a brand new business. The Raven’s Nest is a tattoo shop with a little something extra mixed into the ink, and the owner is like a dream made flesh. He’s mysterious, brooding and one of the best in his specialized profession, and Hob has got it bad.

Summary
“I could, you know?” Hob blurts out, the horror and fear cresting as his thoughts catch up. He stamps it down with brazen confidence and no small amount of madness.
His Stranger frowns. “Find flaws in yourself?”
“No.” The bastard, Hob thinks, impossibly, dangerously fond. “I could go. As your date.” He clears his throat. Too late to back out. “Pretend to be.”
“You jest.”
“I’m not. We’re strangers, right? If this goes south – you’ve got nothing to lose.” Chattering to cover up, and covering up to dig an even deeper grave. That, apparently, is Hob’s specialty. He shrugs, and hides his twisted smile behind the bouquet he’s tying up. “There’re a million other florists in London.”

Or, a flowershop AU featuring fake dating, a conspiracy, and museum exhibitions.

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?

Summary
There are many worlds, each one a reflection of the others. In some worlds, these beings may be known as the endless, undying and unyielding to time. In others they are just stories told by page picture, or screen. Not here though. Here we tell a tale of seven siblings, not immortal but not quite mortal, mages of their realm. Seven royal siblings, each with their own special magic, and all with a deep love of their family expressed in their own varying manner.
