A Toast: by The Best Man


"Hi everyone. I'm Aang. The… uh… Avatar.

"Please, please stop cheering. Oh, my, yes, thank you, those are very nice, but please keep in mind this is a family event, ma'am, and there are children here. You can put your...er...twins away now. Yeah. Thanks.

-Ahem-

"I'm here tonight because my bestest buddy in the world – next to Appa and Momo… and Sokka... and Toph... and all the people who have been dead for a hundred years – is marrying my best gal pal, Katara. Yup. We've all been together for, what, two years? Three? So one day he popped the question, and she said yes, and I was really happy for them. Really. So happy I cried, in fact. In joy. Yup.

"And then Zuko asked me to be his best man, and I was like, whoa, this is ironic, considering he was chasing me all over the world practically, and trying to catch me or kill me all the time. Of course, there was that one time he… you know what? I can't tell you that story. Sorry.

"Zuko's the bestest friend anyone could ever have. Why are you all laughing? It's true. He's loyal to a fault, beats up on anyone who insults your honour, and when you're feeling down, he makes you feel better by telling you about how crappy his life has been. I mean, how good a friend is that? So of course I said yes to being his best man. I mean, wouldn't you?

"I just know he'll make Katara happy. I've known her a long time now, it seems, and really, Zuko doesn't have a choice. He has to make her happy. Or I will become very, very angry.

"And no one likes an angry Avatar.

"So here's to you and Katara and Zuko: may your love and life be long and lasting and your cups overflow with joy and happiness.

"Or else.

"Cheers!"


If Aang can write a Best Man's speech, so can you! Make me laugh and you get a drabble/icon. (Dance, monkeys!)
