Dream really rocked up to the 1589 meeting with a damn rose, but decided against it and threw it away before entering the White Horse

Reading up on Christopher Marlowe, and found out that he died at the mere age of 29 under mysterious circumstances: during some kind of brawl, Marlowe was stabbed above the right eye, killing him instantly.

Marlowe was considered the foremost dramatist in London in the years just before his mysterious early death in 1593 (4 years after the Dream’s and Hob’s meeting in 1589), after which Shakespeare succeeded him as the pre-eminent Elizabethan playwright. Are we sure that Dream merely commissioned two plays from Shaxberd and not just, you know, asked the Corinthian to shiv his strongest competitor? 😂

When (not if, when) Netflix gives us an episode of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, I really hope we get to see it from Shakespeare’s POV, because the man is about 5 min from a nervous breakdown throughout this issue

My favourite unspoken-but-unanimously-accepted Hob Gadling headcanon is that Hob hates Shakespeare with a passion, but still fervently bashes Anti-Stratfordians at every opportunity.

Hob truly is the pinnacle of academic integrity

I NEED Netflix to give us an “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”-episode, complete with Dream cosplaying in thigh-high boots and Titania as the messiest ex in the world

"shakespeare only exists in the sandman" excuse you, he exists in good omens as well

You know what, you’re completely right, I forgot about him because of what a massive flop Hamlet turned out to be
