Seven forty-five in the morning, when Moiraine Sedai comes to Twin Peaks, and the very first thing Dale Cooper does is drive her to the Bookhouse, funny sound in his engine be damned. Once she's safely asleep in the back room, under the guard of one of the boys, Cooper calls the sheriff's station and tells Lucy that they'll need to get somebody else to make the donut run, and he needs to see Harry, immediately.

Hours pass. Cooper conferences, explains what he knows, tells Harry and Hawk what they'll need.

The small bed is behind a wall dividing the back room into two sections. Cooper sits on the other side of that wall with a book and a cup of coffee to hand. He's begun to get his concentration back; he hasn't had to restart a chapter in several hours.

One slow breath; two.

She runs her fingertips over the texture of the blanket as she looks around, reacquainting herself with her surroundings.

"This is no dream," she murmurs, very softly. "And neither am I."

"Yes," she replies.

Moiraine rises, and moves around the edge of the divider into the other side of the room. She pauses, considering him.

"Is all well?"

"Well enough, I think." She lifts one hand and glances down at it, turning her wrist to study her fingers.

The hint of translucence to her skin has nothing to do with saidar and everything to do with the sense of fragility that currently surrounds her.

The Aes Sedai looks up at him. "It will take some time, I suspect, but I do not feel especially unwell."

"I have not met Norma," she observes. "It is kind of her to do so."

Moiraine gives Cooper a very small, rueful smile.

"To be honest -- I am not, but I realize that I very likely should be."

"Thank you."

She glides the few steps remaining to the nearby table, and sinks into one of the chairs there.

Bit by bit, she breaks small pieces of bread and eats them, occasionally interspersing a spoonful of soup.

"I suppose," she replies. "I was not disturbed, that much I can tell you."

She returns his smile with a small one of her own, and is quiet for a few seconds, watching him.

After a few moments,

"Where did you learn to make tea, Dale?"

"Hokkaido," she repeats. "In Japan."

Another pause.

"That is near China, as I recall from the maps."

"I see." Moiraine idly traces a line along the tabletop with the tip of one finger.

"Were you there for any particular reason?"

"Somehow, it does not surprise me that you would," she says, with a hint of something that might be dry amusement.

"To learn," she muses. "Reason enough, I should think."

The Aes Sedai nods once, then tilts her head to one side as she considers him.

"Did you find the answers which you sought?"
