You can take the general idea of the discussion (a dance, he wants to go and she doesn't but does), and credit isn't strictly necessary because ideas themselves are free. But I don't want you to take my dialogue. Especially not for a drabble, where dialogue is even more important than normal, because it has to account for so much and there's little space to work with.
The sentence about Katara frothing-- it's one of the better speech lines in the AU outline, and especially so because a lot of AU Katara's dialogue is OOC and that is one line that I can actually imagine Katara saying.
Sorry, no, no, you can't have my dialogue. But the dialogue you have on your own is good, and I'm sure you can think of an alternative that suits your fic even more than mine does.
