The Mishap

Chapter 2: Bad Juju

Li was a refugee. (Zuko was, too.)

Li was not a lady-killer. (Neither was Zuko.)

"You're not a foot-rubber," they'd said. "You're a stress-relieving massage therapist."

Call it whatever you like, he'd mumbled. I'm still not touching my uncle's feet.

They assured him that Mushi was not allowed in that part of the spa.
