Summary
It was a couple of hours later that he woke up, head pounding, to yelling. Someone was shaking him awake, calling his name. It should have been a surprise to see Zuko, dressed in all black, a theatre mask in hand, but all Jee could feel was confusion.
"I need your help, Lieutenant," Zuko said and that's when everything had changed.

Zuko never learns his lesson

Summary
In one world, Fire Lord Ozai crowns himself the Phoenix King. He planned to rise supreme from the ashes of all he burned.
Fire Lord Sozin was known as the Dragon of Caldera for his might and the execution of his own dragon for betrayal.
Fire Lord Azulon was known as the Dragon of the South for his act in eliminating the Southern Waterbenders, as well as the dragon he killed on the eve of his twentieth birthday.
Crown Prince Iroh was known as the Dragon of the West for (allegedly) killing the last dragon remaining in the entire Fire Nation.
There were no dragons remaining for Prince Ozai. That being said, Ozai was far more a dragon than any of his family.
The throne of the Fire Nation was known as the Dragon Throne because of the fierceness with which dragons protected their brood and the Fire Lord protected their citizens.
In this world, Ozai is a dragon. He is fierce, and sharp, and fire. Above all else, he will protect his family.

Burning Ashes To Dust (Like A Funeral Pyre) by Imaginealpha
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender
06 Jun 2022
Tags
Summary
The first lesson Zuko ever learns about firebending is that power comes from anger.
Firebenders can draw power from their pain. His whole life, Zuko is told to use his old haunts to succeed, swiping fire from the nicks in his fingers and bursting angry flames from his left eye. Azula’s cold fire comes from the scars littering her arms and the phantom stinging of her father’s backhands. Iroh, too, has little marks on forearms and hands, long faded but still burning like new when he bends them with intense fury. The nature of firebending is not so easily boiled down, though, and throughout his journey, Zuko tries hard to truly understand his pain and power in life.

Summary
The decree that Crown Prince Zuko would be sent on a mission to seek out and capture the Avatar in order to redeem himself in the eyes of the Fire Nation is abruptly rescinded only three short hours after it is made law.
In the end, the only ones who know the full story are the Fire Lord himself, the Princess, and her two handmaidens. You see, no one notices the way Mai stands just a tiny bit closer to Azula, after; how Ty Lee’s affection is a little softer than before. How the Princess withdraws further into herself, how she seems to sleep less. The new scar on Mai’s wrist is small, but it’s not meant to be for everyone to see, so that’s okay.
Life debts are tricky to handle, but in rare cases, they’re worth it.
---
In which a little boy is given a small mercy and a little girl is not left so utterly alone.
It’s the little things, really, that have the most impact.

Summary
A "Zuko never meets the Gaang and suddenly becomes Fire Lord after three years of literal torture" AU. In which the Gaang doesn't know what to think of this new Fire Lord who happens to be the missing nephew of Aang's firebending teacher, Iroh is misunderstanding a few things, and, sure, maybe the world hates the Fire Nation, but the Fire Nation LOVES Zuko, and he can work with that.
Last work in this series is the character list + descriptions for any readers who are lost on anyone.

Summary
“You know,” Sokka said as he closed out of the game, “I was thinking.”
“That’s never a good sign.”
Sokka rolled his eyes. “Rude. Anyways, Dad and Bato are both coming to pick me up at the end of the semester so that Bato can finally see Ba Sing Se. I want you to meet them."
“I don’t know,” Zuko said after a moment. “Technically, I’ve already met them. And I don’t think I made a very good first impression.”

Summary
Whatever your soulmate writes, you can read on your own skin. A bond always connects four people. The “perfect” bond, they say, links one person from each of the four nations.
But the Air Nomads are gone. No wonder Zuko’s bond doesn’t include one.
It’s a shame there isn’t anyone from the Fire Nation, either.
Or: Zuko, Sokka, Suki, and Yue are soulmates. Zuko ignores the bond. Then, Yue learns who their missing soulmate is, and Zuko decides Sokka and Suki must never know.

Summary
Fire comes from the breath, Zuko was told this but never taught this until he was 13.
water was the element of change, Yue was told this over and over even before she could walk but never saw it in practice until she left at 13.
Earth is the element of stability and strength, Toph always knew this and has always known this, and the two weirdos who gave a sword also seem to know this so they're cool.

Summary
Lu Ten, sealed away for six years under Lake Laogai by Ozai's traitorous hands, has been freed by his cousin Zuko. But all he can see in him is the man that sold him out to rot - all he can see in him is the usurper that took his father's throne. Iroh, unaware of the bile that Lu Ten spits at Zuko whenever they're alone, encourages his beloved sons to spend more time together.
It all comes to a head in the ugliest of ways.
