Luck

Sokka muttered about it ceaselessly, his face creased into a scowl, wringing what looked like buckets of water out of his clothes. He mumbled something about 'outdoor weddings'. Something about 'ruined'. And something about 'stupid karma'.

Suki seemed completely unfazed, as if it were an everyday occurrence. She tried to be very calm and nonchalant about the whole thing, a counterpoint to her new husband's dark scowls. She tried to be sympathetic, even. But it was pretty hard not to laugh when she noticed the persistent piece of seaweed that remained stuck to the back of his shirt.

Toph held that it was the funniest thing she had ever seen in her life, and she couldn't even see. She had hardly stopped laughing since the incident. She promised Sokka that she'd heard it, because he'd screamed like a girl. Sokka maintained firmly that he absolutely had not.

Everyone else refused to give confirmation either way.

Zuko too had been stricken with almost non-stop laughter. It was amusing to see he and Toph leaning against each other, doubled over in mirth, and gasping jibes directed at Sokka in the pauses between. It was even more amusing, and more so, incredible, to see the usually solemn Lord of the Fire Nation laughing at all.

Katara consoled Sokka by telling him that at least it had made things interesting. She helped him get dry clothes, and threatened both Zuko and Toph with bodily harm in they didn't stop making jokes about the whole affair. That subdued Zuko, but not Toph.

Lady Mai had remained mostly bland-faced throughout the whole thing, which was quite an accomplishment, even for her. Onlookers could have sworn, though, that several things whispered to her by Zuko made her smile, at least. And she hadn't complained once about her hair, which had been soaked by the water.

Aang tried to be a good best man, which meant mainly trying extremely hard not to grin as he told Sokka that the universe didn't really hate him. His well-meaning argument, as well as his struggle against laughter, was largely undermined by quite a few people, including Sokka himself, who insisted that some greater power really did have it in for Sokka of the Water Tribe.

Sokka kept muttering darkly to himself. But really, looking around at all his friends and family, he couldn't find it in him to feel really bad about the whole thing. Maybe it was just one more reminder that his life was never going to be normal.

But whatever the feeling about the incident, one thing was certain.

From that day forward on Kyoshi Island, it was considered the best of good luck to have the Unagi show up on your wedding day.
