    Summary

    Aang isn’t the Avatar. But… he used to be…

    But water doesn’t call to him, not in the way he knows it’s supposed to. And then, he is saved from Pohuai Stronghold by… an airbender?!

    This masked guy that saved him, rescuing him with two swords and a small bout of accidental airbending… is the Avatar. Not Aang. Not… not anymore.

    And he’s looking for a Master to teach him air.

    (Zuko is the Avatar. But… he wasn’t always…)

    Summary

    The water tribe siblings stand tall besides him, a stern look on their faces. They're dressed in black, no indication of their roots other than the small beads adorning their hair and the tan color of their skin.

    “You're the Fire Prince, right?”.

    His body clenches at the title. “Zuko”, he offers. “There's no fire prince”.

    The girl’s face stiffens, but when the boy -Sokka, a memory from years ago resurfaces- speaks, his voice is softer. “Zuko”, he repeats the name, and it makes Zuko's fingers numbly tingle. He tells himself it's from the cold.

    -Or, The Fire Nation loses the war before the Avatar’s return. Aang cannot restore balance without starting another one. Ergo, a blazing revolution.

    Summary

    When an unexpected power erupts during Aang’s fight with Ozai, the young Avatar finds himself thrust a century into the past—not even two weeks until the fabled Comet Festival that would mark the beginning of the century-long war. Now forced to make what feels like an impossible choice, he must shoulder the agony of erasing the future he’s come from and the possibility of erasing the family he’s built.

    But does he really have to do this alone?

    Summary

    Aang has been alive for a long time. Only conscious for 21 years of it, but still. He's been around the world, seen so many things wonderful, huge and extraordinary. Yet all pale in comparison to the moment he sees Zuko asleep in sunlight for the first time, soft and glinting with scars of gold. Despite what the monks taught him, he can't help but see them as beautiful, see him as beautiful, with the Kintsugi written all over his body, but he sees how Zuko will hide the rivers of Gold if he can. What he doesn't know, is why.

    ATLA Kintsugi: The art of repairing broken, scarring flesh by filling the scarred tissue with (Anti-bacterial) mending gel mixed with fine gold, silver, or bronze. Goes on the philosophy that broken things can be made beautiful again, if not more so than they once were, because of their breaks through the art of mending and healing.

    Our Kintsugi: The Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with urushi lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. Goes on the philosophy that broken things can be made beautiful, if not more so than they once were, because of their breaks through the art that can come from mending and repairing.

    Summary

    stuck in her tower for all eighteen years of her life, katara had come to peace with her own lonely, repetitive existence, her only company being her mother, hama. at least, she *was* at peace, until a certain airbending thief happened along her tower, caught her eye, and forever shifted the path of her destiny.

    OR: kataangled. and yes, i came up with that brilliant wordplay all on my own.

    Summary

    (tagged Graphic Violence just to be safe--mostly just implications of violence)

    Aang spirals while on what was supposed to be a relaxing vacation to the Fire Nation after he sees Fire Lord Sozin's portrait. Things get worse from there.

    -----

    "He doesn’t know how long he’s been walking for. Or even where he is, if he’s being honest. He’s been walking through the palace halls in random directions for a while now. A left here, a right there. He keeps thinking about that portrait. Was that really the last face the air nomads saw? Was that the face they saw, growing ever closer, ever more ominous—?

    He squeezes his eyes shut and shakes his head. No. No use fixating on the past. What would Gyasto say? He’d tell him to feel, and let go. Well, he’s felt it. He’s feeling it right now, and he’s ready to let go.

    Let go.
    Let go.
    Let. Go.
    Let go let go let go let go let go let go letgoletgoletgoletgoletgoletgoletgoletgoletgoletgo—-

    Summary

    For a while, neither of them spoke. They sat in a heavy silence, just the two of them. Aang looking up, Zuko staring straight ahead. He thought again of his cousin, of his mangled family and all they took, and how Aang had always, somehow, been at the center of it.

    “You were dreaming about him, weren’t you?” Zuko said, suddenly. His chest tightened at the realization. It came together all at once, like someone had whispered the answer in his ear. Aang shifted beside him. His eyes almost flashed in the moonlight. “Of Roku.” Zuko clarified, though they both knew who he meant.

    -------
    OR: Aang's 18th birthday stirs up a lot of unprocessed grief and with the inauguration of the United Republic just around the corner and increasing expectations the pressure of it all is becoming too much

    Republic City shenanigans, drunken truth or dares, complicated visits home and a semi-arranged marriage inbound!

    this is about the Gaang, five years after the war trying to find their way :)

    I should say, if you've read beautiful boy this is definitely in the same universe in terms of vibe/characters/style/etc, just think of it as like not quite in the same canon but pretty much <3

    Summary

    Aang's been gone from the world for a very long time... or about a year, from his perspective. Carrying the memories of a dead civilization alone is a burden perhaps too great for even the Avatar. That's what friends are for, of course.

    Summary

    The target was a jewel called Four Elements, which was actually four individual gems that had been cut to fit together perfectly; a blue sapphire, a brownish topaz, a bright red garnet, and a clear diamond. Each individual jewel was big enough to be considered a pandora candidate, so stealing all of them at once would be killing four birds with one stone, or, four gems with one bird, perhaps?

    The one where Kaito accidentally Isekai's everyone over to the ATLA world. Tune in for fun events, such as:
    -Ran punching Ozai in the face
    -Kaito can actually fly now oh no
    -Aoko versus the patriarchy
    -Nakamori being a Very Tired Dad
    And many more!

    Summary

    A hundred years ago the fire nation attacked the air nomads in a preemptive strike to ensure the then Avatar would not reach full maturity. All four of the Air Temples were lost, almost all the nomads were wiped out on the very dawn of the war.

    But some still survived, small pockets and bands who would go on to form the current air nation, fractured though it may be. The few monks who survived the initial temple attack and managed to escape formed the air shrines within the major cities of the Earth Kingdom, while the wandering nomads who had not been at the temples created the Air Enclaves, and there are always rumors of still more nomadic clans of Air Nomads who yet still refuse to set down roots.

    It is in the Eastern Enclave of the Si Wong Desert that a young air bender named Aang grows up.

    But storm clouds are gathering.
