Summary
Zuko tries.
Agni, he tries. Uncle wants so desperately for him to do the right thing, and he wants to, he does, he does, he does-
So when the Water Tribe girl looks at him with wild eyes, begging for help, and Azula raises one eyebrow with a sneer, Zuko chooses.
Azula’s scream of anger when he blasts a fireball in her direction is almost worth the twenty Dai Li agents that immediately surround him.
(or: Zuko is taken prisoner by Azula in the catacombs. Turns out, being kept miles away from the sun isn't so great for your bending.)

Summary
“I don’t get it,” Toph asks Katara after her fifth rant about the mysterious appearance of Zuko. “Is he hot?”
“Toph!” Katara yelps, scandalized.
“That wasn’t a no.”
Katara storms off in a huff. She’s not going to put up with such undignified behavior.
Okay, fine, so Zuko was hot. Who cares? Not Katara. She certainly didn’t think that the healing cut across his face made him look dashing. That was some romance novel nonsense, and Katara only read those in secret. She certainly would never allow herself to think such things.
High School AU: Katara is a gifted student obsessed with track and field. Then Zuko shows up to mess up all her best-laid plans with his stupid, hot, annoying self.

Fueling the Flames by HappilyUnconventional34 for MuffinLance
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender
22 Jun 2020
Tags
Summary
At first, Sokka dismisses it.
He notices, they all do, that Katara feeds Zuko less. A lot less. He notices that Zuko’s portions are often burnt and lacking any care, so even the little bit he does get is barely salvageable.
Sokka notices, but he doesn’t care.
(In which Fire Benders need to eat twice as much because they create their own fire. Based off Chapter 17 of "The One Where Zuko's Hair Matches Sokka's and Other Tales")

Summary

Prince Zuko is born with eyes of pure gold, the surest sign of a strong inner flame.

Summary
“I think they made a mistake when I was born. Everybody says I’m a girl but I feel like a boy. We should tell everyone I’m a prince, not a princess. Then they wouldn’t say the wrong things anymore.”
“Zuzu, honey, you mustn’t say things like that.” His mother grabs his shoulder firmly.
“Why not?”
She doesn’t answer for a long time, gazing at the pond before finally turning back to him, the tranquility on her face contrasting with the urgency of her grip.
“It could make people very angry.”
“Like how Father gets angry?”
“...Yes, your father would get very angry.”
“Oh. Okay.”

Summary
A penny for your thoughts, my good sir? Let the light it reflects clear your worries. A burden shared is a burden halved, after all.
They say that in addition to the spirits of the world, there are also guardian spirits that watch over individuals. It is debatable whether everyone has one, or if it is just for people who have caught the spirits’ attention. The former is comforting; the latter definitely is not.
Sometimes, Iroh wants to find his nephew’s guardian spirit and throttle it.
--
Zuko and Iroh try to make a life for themselves in Ba Sing Se, but Iroh never predicted the extent to which the city he laid siege to would go to in order to cover it all up. The crimes of this war pile higher and higher, and if he can't protect the people he loves, it's about time he does something about it.
...right after he gets out of prison.
OR: Iroh's POV during the events of Stand and Deliver.

Summary
This is a robbery of everything you’ve ever been. Prince Zuko, stand and deliver.
A single point of light circles around and around, never stopping, never going out. It’s fitting, given the circumstances; there’s no choice available but to go along the same track over and over again.
Joo Lee rises in the walled city of Ba Sing Se. He stands; he delivers.

Summary
Korra confronts the implications of energybending.
This could be read as a sort of alternate pilot for season two, if the show wasn't going to completely forget about all the issues it raised with the Equalists in season one.

Summary
Zuko doesn’t join the freedom fighters. It’s too risky for him and his uncle, and his uncle is the most important person to him. The freedom fighters hold a hate for the fire nation that makes Zuko know that he’ll never fit in with them; the inner fire within his body is enough proof for that.
He’s a survivor, but he’s still a firebender.
But Zuko, even though he’ll never admit it out loud, is lonely. He has Uncle, but Uncle is old and aging, and Zuko can’t connect with him in the way he so craves to have with someone. Being with Jet soothes that ache, makes Zuko feel alive in a way that oh so rarely happens anymore.
So when Jet asks if they can meet in two days after they arrive in Ba Sing Se, Zuko says yes.
