I've got one or two ideas for follow-up drabbles, but nothing in the immediate future.
Sokka and Suki always strike me as interesting from a long-term, in-universe perspective. Of all the personalities involved on the front lines of the series (aside from Ty Lee), they're the ones who'd be at the greatest risk of being marginalized by history. Everyone else is an Avatar, a Fire Lord, their wives, or a major innovator (Toph's metalbending) -- Great Men, as it were. Sokka's role in events would probably hinge mostly on Yue's posterity and his failure in organizing the DoBS invasion. Suki's name would be a trivia bowl question only major league nerds would know ("The wife of Avatar Aang's brother-in-law? Uh...")
