Out of the frying pan and into the...not even going to say it.

I sure hope you know what you're doing.

You're right, it's not like I haven't done anything of the kind before....but Johnny Horne wasn't dangerous. I wasn't taking my life in my hands every time I gave Josie an English lesson, or delivering food to psychopaths with Meals on Wheels, either. I know everyone deserves redemption, but the idea of being the one to help give it....you can understand why I'm skeptical.

I know this deal is vitally important; it's my task to carry out, after all. It's so important I won't even mention it here for fear of jinxing it. I need to do this, and I will, but I think I've gambled with my life enough for one eternity. So please, mun....be careful, okay?

Let's both do our very best.

Love,
Laura

What's it like, where you are now?

[intofireforever]

It's beautiful. Peaceful. I don't know how else to describe it.

[Oh hello, Arthas. You're the one who committed the massacre big enough to make her see the pale horse. :| ]

[darknessb4me]

You shouldn't have to leave.

[so jelly right now.]

The thing that killed me has taken a new host. He has the man who solved my murder.

[BOB, free again and with all the power of a Federal agent...the suffering he could create from within Cooper's body would be staggering.]

[ok the bottom just dropped out of his stomach.]

This is the only way?

[intofireforever]

I don't see any other.

[ Unsurprisingly, Dale looks as if he's been hit by a two-ton truck. ]

— Laura?

pardon my lack of good icons, I don't have a paid account anymore :P

[And Laura looks nearly as shocked. He was there to see her off when her guardian angel came, but that was quite some time ago, and as far as she knows he's still trapped in the Black Lodge.]

Agent Cooper...!

What are you doing here?
