    Summary

    Hands are such a human thing, Hob thinks. To make, and shape, and create. The elegance of thumbs. Fashioned by thousands of years of slow and careful evolution for the sole purpose of holding.

    He wants to hold Dream. To rub their fingers together, that singularly human grasp, to push their palms flat, and their chests close, and he's not sure if he wants to hug his friend or cry on his shoulder, because he should have been there. He should have known.

    Hob has a hard time believing that Dream forgives him. He has an even harder time believing that Dream might want him back.

    Summary

    "Does it bother you? The—" Hob gestured vaguely towards the front door, encompassing Max and, by extension, the entire catalogue of bodies that had preceded him through it. "All of them. Does it bother you?"

    Yes, Dream thought, with a force and immediacy that startled him. Yes, it bothers me. Every face, every mark on every throat, every time I arrive to find the space around you already occupied by someone whose presence I must accommodate before I can have you to myself—

    "No," he said. "Why would it?"

    Summary


    ...although he's done this many times before, when the metal pricks his skin, Dream still lays frozen like an ice sculpture as his heart pounds against his chest.

    He has sold his vintage leather jacket, his treasured collection of elegant handmade cloaks (there was a theatrical phase, it’s complicated), and most of his books (the shelves of his sparse apartment now hold only a few cheap volumes of blank paper for his sketches). But it wasn’t enough.

    Burgess was years ago, but Dream's life still lies in ruins.

    He does not like being here. But it seems that this — his body's materials, his very essence — is the only thing of value he has to offer the world. This most basic biological function, the blood pumping through his veins, is all anyone wants of him now.



    BEHOLD: The Starving Artist Dream/Plasma AU nobody asked for!

    a.k.a Dream meets a chatty professor while struggling to pay his bills, they both have haunted pasts and are accidentally the salve for each other's wounds.

    Summary

    You would think that his brother's coronation as King of Halloween would be the most important item on Dream's agenda for the day.

    You would be wrong.
