Happy Birthday

[honorinflames]

Who: Natsuki and Zuko
What: Birthday drinks vs. moping!
When: Backdated to Natsuki's birthday
Where: In town somewhere
Rating: PG?

[he really didn't feel like going into town, let alone trying to celebrate anything, but Natsuki hadn't really given him much room for argument. She'd been so insistent... and she's not usually insistent on much. He literally couldn't say no.

Besides... maybe he'd quietly missed being bossed into doing something 'normal.' That probably wouldn't be happening much anymore.

So, still unsure as to what exactly they're going to go do, he's waiting around for her to show, and trying not to think about the little shrine he'd had sitting under the tree...]

["don't really" drink is still more than he's done. The only time he'd even gotten close was once, and that was the castle's fault.

Enjoy all the awkward. There will be plenty of it.

...Especially when he... brings the pint up to his face to smell it. And kind of makes a face]

[and she's taking a gulp of hers]

Not bad. [not the worse she's had, by a long shot.

And is that amusement she's hiding when she looks at Zuko?]

[it smells horrible, but he can't let her completely show him up.

So... he follows her lead and takes a gulp himself.



...and immediately regrets it.]

--Uggh!
