Everyone Right Now

1889… Just before their dreadful separation, there is such an intimate moment, where Hob opens up about himself. And where Dream, in his way of course, shows the esteem he has for him (which only makes the end of the meeting more dramatic)

First there is the moment when Hob talks about the only thing he has discovered in 500 years.

At the end of the sentence, he has this little look down, quite sad. And Dream sees it (as usual he shows it with a micro expression, this slight frown, that makes him look almost worried)

Then Hob turns around to look at Lou Lushing. He still has that melancholy look on his face, even though what he's saying could be a reason to rejoice, that people are better than you think they are most of the time.

Already at that moment I was wondering, why look sad if he says that. And he himself gives the answer. He does not include himself in those people who are better than we think. He has this little sad, self-deprecating laugh before he tells Dream.

But Dream, even if he only saw him every hundred years, he witnessed him change. And if Hob in what makes him endearing has not changed, he has changed in what matters, taking Dream's advice and learning from his experience. And Dream tells him so in an absolutely sincere way.

And Hob's reaction is almost adorable, the smile he followed by a sigh, because he is so aware of his mistakes and still making them.

And I love Dream's reaction here. As often without words, but his eyes and expression are so open, so caring.

And it is exactly this moment that will make Hob realize that their relationship is more than these secularly casual encounters. But that's for another post…

i love hannigram because while exuding the horniest, we-fuck-daily vibes, they don't give off the Actually Fucking vibes. i don't mean this in an asexual way, i mean that whatever they have going on may not be sex but it is twice as erotic (and probably thrice as deadly)
