have we discussed the fact that if they do this scene from season of mists in season 2 of the sandman we will have an entire exchange where dream visits hob in his dream and brings him a good bottle of wine to share because dream thinks he might not be coming back from hell and he wants to say goodbye to his friend
please just picture ferdinand and tom giving the toast scene their all i’m trying to imagine it but i keep spiraling into the abyss

Something that really leapt out at me as I was rereading this issue today is??? This is still a portrait of Delight??? And Destiny doesn’t call her Delight or Delirium, merely addressing her as the “youngest of the Endless.” Oh my god.
I don’t have any coherent thoughts about what this signifies, only that it hurts me in some way.

guys I'm reading season of mist for the first time and I am LOSING IT at the endless family dynamics already
First of all nobody can convince me Destiny is not the messiest bitch in this or any other plane; sure it's his function but he definitely called the family meeting in a way that would be most interesting for him specifically. He has one book, entertainment options are limited
then you have desire, whom upon experiencing a .3 second lull in conversation immediately unfurled their "dream's biggest mistakes: greatest hits" list they keep with them at all times as is their divine right as a younger sibling
which brings us to our favorite edgelord fucking drama king Dream of the endless storming off and going "everyone else is being so mean! Death, do YOU think me throwing my ex-girlfriend into hell was maybe not cool?" with the air of a teenager who's just been informed it's a dick move to break up over text message
And then death, A FULL TEN THOUSAND YEARS AFTER THE FACT: "I mean yeah we didn't want to bring it up, you seemed upset, but hurling your ex into a dimension of eternal punishment for rejecting you is shall we say not an approved Good Breakup Strategy"
This comic is incredible I love these chaotic unhinged deeply mentally unwell anthropomorphic personifications with my entire soul

So in the fourth book, before going to hell dream goes around saying goodbye just in case he doesn't return. Guess who his final stop is?
That's right Hob Gadling. 😭
Also this is the toast they make in dreams

you know, i can't wait to see season of mists in the show, yes to watch certain pieces fall into place for later story and for one particular dream hob conversation
but also because it really is in so many ways just the funniest volume
and i've seen some of those funny moments get mentioned
i've yet to see anyone list dream's defeat of azazel among them
but like. let's lay this out. so dream already has about 500 problems to deal with, at least 300 of which are queueing up in the dreaming telling him to give them the keys to hell or they're gonna [insert threat here], when all he wants to do is rescue nada and maybe also sulk in his bedroom for a bit
when problem #501 shows up - azazel would like hell back so they can make it even worse, and they've brought nada as a bargaining chip to ensure it. they also throw in choronzon for free, because everyone else has been offering gifts, and dream likes revenge, right? yeah, revenge, that'll definitely get him to like us
azazel mostly behaves themselves during the actual negotiations (mostly), bc they're sure they've won, and no need to cause a scene and make more enemies than they have to. but when they realise that's not the case, they threaten to eat nada if dream can't get them what they want
to which, in a move that made me realise exactly why dream gets along so much better with fey than he does humans, he reminds azazel that everyone who crosses the threshold of his realm is entitled to his hospitality, including nada (thanks for bringing her here for me btw, saves me the trip), so if azazel harms her in any way they'll no longer be entitled to dream's protection
and azazel is like fuck you fuck your hospitality i can eat anyone i goddamn like
so we get that challenge between the two of them taking place inside azazel who is kind of a realm in their own right, which, when dream wins, azazel tries to pull a lucifer "why should i let you leave?"
and yes. dream is currently in azazel's void. azazel could try to eat him from in there, regardless of who won. but see, lucifer had one thing azazel doesn't, which is remembering whose fucking house you're in
azazel's entire realm, entire self, is still inside the dreaming. regardless of where dream's physical manifestation is, demons have no power here.
you really shouldn't have denied my hospitality.
and since dramatic irony is the order of the day, dream's then just like "so, what was it you were promising, again? nada and some, uh, sweet sweet vengeance? yeeeaaaah i think i remember you saying something about that. hey azazel? what are your opinions on glass spheres."
and then he turns to the vast assortment of gods and similar he's been trying to get rid of for two days and is like "any arguments? no? cool, get the fuck out of my house."
