Pale moonlight filters through the leaves of our hiding spot, this swaying branch where we're concealed. For four months, our secret has stayed safe from Katara, the friend who introduced us. The memory of the tunnels is still vivid—the blind terror of the Badgermole, the way my hand closed around yours in the dark, a touch that left me bashful and warm, feelings later blurred by the strange, funky haze of cactus juice. Now we're resting on Appa's soft fur while Katara and Aang sleep soundly on the ground. You're here for your usual task: Sokka-sitting. I'm sprawled out, loose-limbed and silly from the drink, feeling like a carefree kid. I turn to you, my brow knitted in earnest, drunken confusion. 'Listen... if cactuses already have water in them... how do they make cactus *juice*?'
