Twin Peaks fic: Wake Up and Face the Music (Part 1)

Well, I finally finished that Twin Peaks story I've been chewing on since January! Technically, it was written as a New Year's resolution for Yuletide, fulfilling a prompt by my own Yuletide author from last year, who wrote me a gorgeous Twin Peaks fic. Only later, I found out that said author also made a Cooper/Albert Twin Peaks request for Yuletide, and here's my attempt to fill it!

The request was for a post-series fic, dealing with Cooper's possession by BOB, ideally containing some Dale Cooper/Albert Rosenfield slash. Now, as I hinted at before, I wouldn't have been too comfortable writing slash between them that took place during canon, because I have this slightly compulsive thing with sticking to canon pairings, but post-canon slash, well, that was a whole other thing. Still, with the whole possession storyline, there's obviously some dark stuff here. I chose not to cross into non-con, because that's just not my thing, but one could argue it borders the line at times, due to the nature of the material. Apart from Cooper and Albert, some other characters make an appearance as well: Harry Truman and Gordon Cole, most notably (IT WAS GREAT FUN WRITING IN CAPS LOCK for Gordon *giggles*), and there's a cameo of Audrey in there as well. Oh, plus one other character, whose name I'm not going to mention here except to say that writing a conversation between said character and Albert is probably the hardest thing I ever did in a fanfic. Let's just say, I've never read those two characters interacting before, and I hope I did a good job, but - it wasn't easy, seeing how, um, different they are. Though there are some similarities there as well.

Go, read, enjoy! Comments, as always (and this time perhaps more than ever), are very much appreciated. Any kind, including the critical ones. Seriously. I mean, this is by far the plottiest fic I've ever done, and possibly the darkest, so any kind of feedback is welcome. Oh, and I had to cut the story into two parts, as LJ grumbled about post size. Hope you don't mind.

Title: Wake up and face the music
Summary: Post-series fic, trying to resolve the issue of Cooper's little, um, possession. Albert Rosenfield's POV, pretty angsty all around... And a anything else would be spoilery for the story, really.
Pairing: Albert Rosenfield/Dale Cooper
Other characters: Harry Truman, Gordon Cole, Audrey Horne, and one other, which you'll have to read to find out. *g*
Rating: Not quite a solid R, I guess, but more than a PG-13. There is language, and references to sex, though never explicit.
Disclaimer: As always, David Lynch gets all the honors.

Because LJ grumbled over post size, I had to cut this in two. Part 1 can be found here.
ETA: made some edits to this part; that final scene still needed some polishing. Better now. :)
