Hob cradles his tea cup as he listens, his eyes and a smile fixed on Loki as he talks about things Hob has only known a handful of times, even in his centuries of living. He saw Dream perform some magic once with his sand, and Hob has witnessed some unearthly things, but talk of magic and spells is still new and fascinating. Even hearing Johanna talk about it fills him with wonder.

"Do you have a favorite spell or illusion? One you really like?" He doesn't know if Loki is partial to anything, but Hob is curious what that would be.
