Open Meme

I'm in a creative mood. So- this here is an open Avatar: the Last Airbender meme. Post up to three- I'll promise one.

Since this is wide-open, please give me a specific to work off of- a line, a quote, a nebulous verb, something. Just a pairing does not count.

(And just as a note- the Dragon Hatching AU meme is still open, if anyone's interested!)

Edit- Meme is closed.
I will fill out at least one of everyone's prompts, and more if circumstance permits. Thank you all for your patience, your comments, and the fun you've given me^^

Can the nameless characters get some love?

The guys that were on the Fire Nation airship that Sokka dumps into the ocean in Sozin's Comet- It *is* supposed to be my birthday.

They make it to shore without losing more than one or two guys- the brief, sudden flood that douses the forest-fire doesn't do much more than lift them up and set them down gently, and by that point everyone's stripped off their heavier armor.

Quan Li helps drag Ben, who's birthday it is, up to the bar when the reach the nearest coastal town and troop into the first tavern they see. They set him up, and then proceed to buy (or beg) their own drinks in round upon round. Nobody objects, since the world's ending and they can see that the rest of the peninsula is on fire out the windows.

Hours later, Ben raises a question, between slurps of his imported Si Wong Sledgehammer, which comes in a cactus-shaped jug and is making the edges of the world turn pretty colors.

"Thhhhhhink th'cap'n 'll have us up on drunk'n'dsorderly? Or 'sit drunk'n'duty?"

"I 'unno," says the guy from the furnaces, face red as the rest of him now that his mask's off and he's had several wine-bowls in him.

"Don't care. Barstud let 's swim to th'invasion," says Hiza from Communications.

"Wellll, ash to him, then! I saaaay we jus' cel'brate here!" Ben exclaims, raising his ceramic cactus. "'S my birthday and I don' like hotcakes anyway!" He pauses, and seems to squint at the table.

"At least not without sweetcream. Too hot, otherwise."

They agree, and drink to that. At some point they watch through the window as the forest fire dies down, and raise glasses to that, too, because at this point a fly passing by is cause for celebration. The waitstaff just wait for the next repetition and it seems to keep them from burning down the place.

Get knocked out of an airship in a foreign land, get free drinks. In the end, there've been worse birthdays.

Ahahahaha! Oh Sokka... At least they were close to the water and didn't go splat on the waves.

Those bartenders are just trying to get rid of all that flammable alcohol.
