Sara. [She headbutts the girl in the thigh.]

You're drunk.

Go home.

[american_tanuki]

[Sara ruffles Avery's hair as retaliation for the headbutt.]

I am not drunk. I am high as shit.

[counterclock]

What did you do? You mentioned Nyquil. Did you actually do Nyquil? [She does not protests the hair ruffles.]

[american_tanuki]

Just between you and me, I'm a huge poser stoner who's never done anything heavier than weed.

[counterclock]

Haha, oh my god... What, really? Not even shrooms or X? [For all Sara's public posturing, Avery genuinely expected a little more adventure from her.]

[american_tanuki]

Okay, shrooms once. It was not a positive experience.

[Avery considers this, and then hauls her body up to drag it the few inches necessary to sprawl in Sara's lap.] Spill.

I'll be honest, most of it is a blur. The main thing I remember is being really freaked out because I thought the trees were all covered in human skin instead of bark, and it was just constantly peeling off in chunks.

I was inside, Avery. The trees were a wallpaper pattern.

[counterclock]

...

[Heh. Heh.]

Well.

I don't think anyone would blame you for thinking wallpaper was made of human skin. Some of that shit feels grody as hell.

[Snicker.]

[american_tanuki]

I wish it was that simple. The wallpaper had vertical green stripes. I thought the stripes were trees. I thought those trees were made of skin. It was like an awful hallucination on top of a nice hallucination.
