as someone who hasn't read the comics yet and is kind of intrigued with all the spoilers i've seen so far, i do wonder how would hob/daniel work? isn't daniel dream's son? i do know he replaces dream (rip) but how would hob go about loving someone who reminds him so much of dream through all the grief of having lost him in the first place? (this is not criticism, all dreamlings are valid! i'm just curious)
first of all i must clarify for you that daniel is NOT dream's son. the best comprehensive explanation of it is that dream of the endless kinda functions as a timelord in that when an aspect of him dies, another aspect takes his place. so like Morpheus is a singular personality that's existed and Daniel is too but they're both Dream of the Endless just like christopher eccelson's doctor who is the doctor and david tennant's doctor who is too.
so in this way, daniel has all of morpheus/dream's memories and is the same person but not. daniel is dream's ultimate attempt to divorce himself from his responsibilities and change but keep doing his function, so daniel is a softer more open morpheus with a hint of humanity in him that allows him a certain insight morpheus dream didn't necessarily have (see Having To Be Told That Throwing Your Girlfriend Into Hell Is Wrong Actually)
so in that way i think similar to rose tyler's dilemma with 9 > 10 we have a very interesting situation where you're loving the same person but they've changed in a fundamental way, but they still remember you and share those precious memories (another doctor whoish example is journey's end with 10 and 10^2)
so i think it would be a very complicated transition for hob of knowing that you've mourned this friend who you had a relationship with but at the same time they're still here in front of you. it's like mourning a past version of yourself that you know will never come back, but there's still the you of the present and future
so all those things compounded makes the concept of daniel/hob extremely compelling for me and honestly (in terms of comic timeline) much more plausible (also bc after reading The Dreaming I Refuse to accept any non neil gaiman daniel into my personal canon)
all this to say i think they would be a very tasty and tragic dynamic that turns into something new, open and exciting, much like Dream when he changes
