Why this must be read:

I’ve been seeing Yuletide icons all over my friends list today, so it seems like an appropriate time to spotlight a story from the Yuletide archive. This story incorporates many of the show’s recurring visual motifs: red draperies, velvet, the contrast of white against black. It also captures some of the dreaminess of life in Twin Peaks. Agent Cooper, for one, finds himself subject to extremely vivid and enlightening dreams during the Laura Palmer investigation. This one, however, concerns a very different matter...

Cooper had not made up his mind what the message of this particular dream might be; it was best to be open to all interpretations, he found. But whatever the message was, he felt increasingly sure that the dream had drifted away from it. Certainly his attention was in dire danger of drifting away from anything but the image of Audrey, now leaning back on the bed. The satin between her breasts rippled as she moved. He attempted a polite escape. "I have to look for clues."

"I have a clue for you," she promised. Slowly, Audrey uncrossed her legs; once again, Cooper didn't look, but he could nonetheless tell that she was sliding one hand between her thighs. Then she drew up a card and flipped it around, so that he could see the face.

Carefully, Cooper took the card from her. It was still warm.
