( He can't believe it, but Cooper is breathing. There's an awkward half kneel/collapsing movement as he braces himself but, finds Cooper's arm and then hand. His fingers interlock and he squeezes, not saying anything, not - wanting to jinx everything. )
[His hand reaches out to grasp whoever touches him, and eventually his eyes open to find William's. It's then followed by a small smile as he squeezes his hand back.]
( He leans forward and finds his lips, not making a show of it, but showing how lost he'd felt only an hour before. He brings his lips to Cooper's knuckles after. )
I have a feeling anything on my end of things is going to be rather low key, no?
[Bela nods. "Freya reached out and they're gathering everyone at the cemetery. We could likely set you both up at the Abattoir since William's area of expertise can be more remote, while your sister comes to be boots on the ground?"
Mia shrugs. "Not gonna lie, punching something sounds like a good time right now." Though does she mean the bad guys are does she mean Bela. Hard to tell.]
I meant the woman who believes it's better to ask for forgiveness.
( Which, is the cue Bela takes. )
We're hiding. Do - ( He regards Cooper again. Because, this is not just his decision. But, he's not going to make this decision alone. And he doesn't want to leave Cooper's side, no matter how codependent it may seem. He really has grown.
["Good." Her phone goes off and she nods. "Looks like your friend succeeded in pulling off their ruse. We'll get started once he gets here."
Cooper does let off a sigh of relief that Mickey is okay - vamp or not, he'd been worried. But for now, they'll prepare what they need here, and we'll transfer them into the other thread.]

We have to work on peer pressure.

[He groans as he tries to sit up, feeling the stiffness in his limbs.]
Being dead sucks. Would not recommend.

( He can breathe easy now, at least. )
So, what comes next in your plans?

[He looks over to Bela.]

Maybe. ) Do you trust Mikaelson Witsec?

[But Bela kept her word and brought him back, so that's soothing some of his ire.]

( Fine. He will go along with it. He nods. )
Sure. We'll lay low.
