"Keep 'em coming barkeep!"
Toph slams her mug down on the table and belches before being overtaken by a fit of giggles. She's easily the youngest person in the tavern, and she's been picking fights and beating grown men in arm wrestling matches.
But now she's too drunk to sit up straight - she sags, leans, catches her balance, and swats away uninvited hands that are groping at her.
"Get your damn hands off me!" Her words are slurred, and the men harassing her don't heed her requests. "I'm gonna… I'll fucking…" But she's too inebriated to fight them off.

Katara averts her eyes while Toph vomits into a bucket. She'd found the earthbender nearly passed out, being led away by some sleazy men at the tavern, and shuddered to think what could have happened if she didn't get there in time.
"Toph," she says gently, "you need to find a better way to cope. I know he hurt you, but this isn't the way. You can't put yourself in danger because of him."
Toph groans. She wipes her mouth and says "I don't know what you're talking about," but even as she's saying it, the tears begin to flow.
