Summary
“Would someone be clear with what’s happening on my ship?” Hakoda demanded.
Hakoda had to move past the foresail before he saw what the others were talking about. Rather who, because there was very much a boy standing before the bowsprit, looking out on the water.

Summary
“You dare suggest that I betray Iroh?” Fire Lord Azulon did not shout. “My first born? After the demise of his only beloved son?” The old man leaned back in his throne shaking his head, “You have made an irrevocable error here, today, Ozai. What man of honor, what brother, what Uncle, would use this tragedy, a death towards furthering our family’s sacred mission as you call it, for his own political,” He practically spat the word, “gain. No, no, Iroh has suffered enough, but you, my son, have been far too coddled.”
Zuko felt Father’s tension, but his stomach truly dropped when he saw Azula’s own worry, clear as day on her perfect actress face.
“You need to be taught a lesson,” Fire Lord Azulon decided. “You must, too, suffer the pain of losing your first born.”OR
Fire Lord Azulon, to punish Ozai, gives Zuko to Iroh

Summary
“But you just said honor is about doing what’s right. You must have known that wasn’t right,” Sokka presses.
There’s a long moment of silence. Then, “I knew it didn’t feel right. But I always told myself that if I knew the first thing about honor, I would still be home.”
“I don’t understand."
“I didn’t, either,” Zuko sighs.
~
Of course Sokka has seen the scar. It’s kind of hard to miss.
…It just hadn’t occurred to him that it meant anything.

Summary
Assumed dead after his banishment, Zuko takes up The Blue Spirit mask. No one has seen his face in three years, and he won't let them. It's safer this way, being alone. After a Fire Nation general hires him to bring in Hakoda for questioning, he fails the job miserably and ends up a captive of the Water Tribe. When Sokka is employed by Iroh to track down Zuko and find out if he is still alive, The Blue Spirit claims that Zuko is in fact dead, and in a fit of panic, that he was the one who killed him.

Summary
Ursa fled with her first-born Son, after the Fire Lord raised his hand against them in an unimaginable act of cruelty, especially against Zuko, once more.

Now it was up to him and his Crew, to ensure Zuko's survival.
------Aka, one more of those "Hakoda adopts Zuko" fics, with all the cruelty Zuko absolutely doesn't deserve

Summary
“Dude, you haven’t been following any of that stuff about the Blue Spirit? It’s so cool!” Sokka joined Mai on the floor, sitting in the butterfly pose and leaning forward to touch the floor as far as he could reach.
“Um, no. Not really.” Zuko sighed, pulling his leg up into a quadricep stretch.
“Awe, not a fan of the new vigilante, Zuko?” Mai deadpanned, blowing a strand of hair from her face.
“I don’t know, why should I care about some random guy trying to get himself killed? It’s not like one person can do enough to make a difference.”
“You know what I always love about you, Zuko?” Sokka stood, bouncing on the balls of his feet and grinning as he stretched his arms. “You always look on the bright side.”
“Practically a ray of sunshine.” Mai chimed in.
“Whatever. Hard to be disappointed if you don’t look forward to anything.”

Summary
The man stared for a long time. The smile he bore had been completely wiped clean as he studied the scarring. Zuko’s skin itched with anxiety at the odd attention he was given and shot a scowl at the warrior, startling him out of his thoughts. The man offered an apologetic yet awkward smile as he patted his chest and started to speak. It took Zuko a moment to realize that what was being said was a very horribly butchered attempt at Fire Nation formal language. A horrendous introduction.
“My name is Sokka, son of Chief Hakoda.” He introduced with what the savage may have thought was casual ease judging by the sideways smile and the warmth in his eyes. Then proceeded to ask, pointing at Zuko to get his meaning across. “Your name is Li, right?”
‘Okay so they don’t know who I am.’ Zuko didn’t let his sigh of relief show as he nodded slowly in confirmation.
Or
Zuko slips into the scouting party that is sent on a mission to gather intel on an Earth Kingdom encampment only to be ambushed by Water Tribe warriors and taken as a prisoner of war. Zuko finds himself masquerading as Private Li, the Fire Nation scout as he receives a one way trip to the South Pole.

Summary
Hakoda just wants to destroy the Fire Navy, is that so much to ask?
Apparently yes, as his second in command drags in a net containing one half drowned fire prince with a severe brain injury. He can't justify tossing him back like the crew wants, so he will just keep him prisoner until they make it to port and then he's the Earth Kingdom's problem.
(Does it count as imprisonment if he's allowed to run around the ship as he pleases?)Hakoda and the crew slowly adopt a brain damaged fire prince. Just another day at sea.

Summary
“I think he’s sick.” Bato says flatly. “So unless you want the next meeting to include the Fire Lord puking all over the budget scrolls, maybe see if he's okay?”
Hakoda glances up the hallway, like perhaps Katara will appear and take over dealing with the prickly teenager. Of course, his daughter is off treating injured refugees with the Avatar, and Bato is still staring at him expectantly, arms crossed.
“Fine,” He sighs, and he claps Bato on the cheek before heading into the room.
Or: Zuko falls ill not long after Ozai's defeat. Hakoda sits with him and learns some unpleasant truths about his childhood.
