[100more]

I've had far more companions than you.

[ Hob takes a seat on the bed and eases back to lie down. ]

[hypnagothic]

[ he helps him lean back onto the pillows. ]

I was referring to Loki.

[100more]

I know. I mean that it was more likely for me to find a companion in the first place.

[ Hob rests back against the pillows with a sigh. ]

[hypnagothic]

You believe so?

[100more]

[ Hob laughs a little as he gets comfortable and pulls the sheets over himself. ]

Yes, because I actually talk to people. Do you think standing around looking like a model is going to have people throwing themselves at you all the time? Sure, it might work eventually if you stand in one spot long enough, but my methods are more effective.

[hypnagothic]

[ there's a light huff from Dream as he straightens up form helping him down. ]

Perhaps, but then you labor under the false presumption that you have had more companions.

[100more]

[ Hob raises his brow at that. ]

It's that easy for you, then? I guess it would be.

[ Hob would bet good money that Dream did not do the charming when it came to Vanessa. More likely, she pursued him. ]

[hypnagothic]

Hardly.

[ there's a curious note to his tone as he says it, still vaguely smiling at Hob. somewhat sad. ]

But I have had more time.

[100more]

[ The look on Dream's face isn't missed this time. ]

You look bothered. Thinking of the one that got away?

[hypnagothic]

... No, Hob. Not of the one.

[100more]

[ Hob's gaze softens. More than one? ]

Well... that's in the past. Just think about how happy your future will be now that you have Vanessa.

[ Once Vanessa returns, Hob is sure she'll help Dream forget about any old heartaches. ]

[hypnagothic]

Perhaps. Should she return.

[ he starts to turn towards the bedroom door, glancing back to Hob over his shoulder. ]

But I am preventing you from rest.

[100more]

She will.

[ Hob believes Vanessa would not let anything keep her apart from Dream. Not after the way she spoke about him when they last talked. ]

Mmm, yeah. I'll try to get some more sleep.

[hypnagothic]

[ he pauses in the doorway. ]

Shall I aid you with it?

[100more]

I think I've got it covered.

[ Hob sinks into bed a little more. One of these days, if Hob isn't careful, Dream is going to see more than Hob wants him to. It's not like Hob can control what his mind is up to while he's asleep. ]

But I'll call if I can't manage.

[hypnagothic]

Very well. Sleep well, Hob.
