Okay here's a question for you. Do you think Hob is more of a "grab an actual weapon" or a "grab whatever object is closest to him" person when he thinks someone is breaking into his home?
I ask this because we all know that Dream shows up in Hobs living room randomly in the middle of the night at least once and I cannot get the image of him sneaking through his house with like a fucking teapot in his hand and Dream just being like "you think you could hurt Me with a weapon as puny as that"
Anyway happy Sunday and enjoy my weirdass question of the day I guess
i think it's a mix of both, leaning towards the latter. i think hob is probably a scrappy and opportunistic fighter, not to say that he can't use a weapon properly, so to speak, but he's not opposed to using it improperly or using random items as weapons, like he did with the tea tray in 1789. but he does know how to use a variety of weapons correctly and definitely has many weapons hidden in his flat. he's been through too much shit not to ๐Ÿ˜‚. he almost certainly has at the very least an old sword, multiple knives of various types, and at least one illegal gun. they're strategically placed for easy access.
so in summary: if someone breaks into the house hob grabs whatever's closest, but that frequently happens to be an actual weapon ๐Ÿ˜‚
however YES i absolutely need a scene of dream just materializing in hob's bedroom at 3am, and hob, who, we remember, was a soldier for quite a long time and also slept on the streets for like 50 years once, just snaps awake instantly and doesn't think just reacts and yeets the nearest object, which happens to be the nightstand lamp, at dream's head.
dream didn't expect to have something yeeted at his head so he just stands there like an idiot and gets conked by it.
cue hob fussing over him like shit i'm so sorry but also you can't just? appear???? let me see your head do you have a concussion??
and dream is just like. a mere Lamp cannot harm me, Hob. but secretly he's enjoying the attention.
