Perchance for Anemoi

[At Iroh's tea house.]

Welcome to the Jade Dragon! Nothing can help you put aside the trouble of the world like a nice, hot, calming cup of tea. We just got a shipment of Darjeeling tea. I had a chance to try some earlier and I can assure you it is exquisite.

[Everything's been going wrong for you, and you know who's fault it is. It SHOULD be time for payback, but some old far is trying to talk to you first.]

You look like you're about to break someone in half. Why don't you take a minute to cool your head before you do something you will regret?

[That one sided fight you were winning just got interrupted by the weird old man from the tea house who just shot a blast of fire from his fist to separate you from your chosen prey. He looks barely recognizable as the same man.]

There's still time to settle this without fighting, you know. I'm not fond of violence, but if you keep insisting on making a fight of this then I will end it.

Are you sure I can't dissuade you? I've found that are problems are frequently not quite as bad as they seem. We just need to take a step back.

I wish this was one of those. I know the longer I stay - the more likely it is that someone close to me will die.

If it really is this serious then I would be a fool to stop you.

Just, be sure to keep your wits around you and to think with your head as well as your heart.
