Summary
Just a lot of stories and ideas I have about scenarios that Iroh and Zuko would both be adorable in. This may include little Zuko and older Zuko as well. Hope y'all enjoy the story.
P.S. My posting will not have any pattern whatsoever. I'll just write an idea when I get one and will post it when I get the time. Bye!

Summary
Zuko knew who was, the Crown Prince of the Fire Nation, a very stubborn one at that. He survived through life out of sheer spite, but what happens if he loses the only guidance he has?
When Zuko is forced to see the world outside his ship, he sees some disturbing truths about his home. But at least he has Hakoda to help him. Which ends up going up in flames, Zuko knows a lot about flames.
Home is where his father is, where the Fire Nation is. But the crew teaches him that home is where the people are.

Summary
See, the thing is— Agni fucking damnit— Zuko doesn’t regret helping Sokka rescue Hakoda from Boiling Rock. It was a step in the right direction, a display of loyalty, a step towards forgiveness. (Zuko doesn’t pale at the thought of loyalty. He doesn’t. He’s just tired, is all, tired and possibly dehydrated.)
However. He will concede that he may have inadvertently fucked himself over, because in the days and weeks after the rescue, Hakoda won’t stop looking at him with something like disappointment in his eyes. That’s not good. It’s really not good, actually, and in fact, Zuko might as well be dead where he stands. Well. He’s had a good run. Not really, but it’s easier if that’s what he tells himself. If he’s lucky, it won’t be too hard to find another firebending teacher for Aang, and—
Oh Agni. Oh fuck. He’s coming over. Smile, Zuko, smile for Agni’s sake, chin up, back straight, head empty, no thought, only respect, respect and survival, it’s going to be fine—
“Hey there. You seem a little pale, are you alright?”
It takes everything Zuko has to suppress a nervous laugh. He is really and truly fucked.

Summary
Zuko just wants to live his life in peace, but after a horrible fire broke out in his home when he was eleven years old, the gossip mill around town got out of control and blamed Zuko for the fire that permanently scarred his face. A few years later, when their school burns down, several students claim he was the cause of it, officially branding him as the town firebug.
Now at the age of 24, working in his Uncle's cafe, Zuko is burdened by an accusation he was innocent of and is followed around by claims of arson when a string of suspicious fires breaks out over the span of several years. Officer Zhao is determined to arrest the young man on these unfounded charges, meanwhile Sokka and the rest of the Southern Water Fire Department believe Zuko's pleas of innocence. Determined to get to the bottom of this once and for all, and free Zuko of eight years of blame so that he can finally try to move on and live a peaceful life, Chief Hakoda, Lieutenant Bato and Sokka may discover much more than they bargained for and just may put Zuko's life at stake.

Summary
He gathered all his remaining strength and lept out of the wreck and onto the sand. He immediately started running for his life. The sand was warm and soft under his bare feet, usually an enjoyable sensation, but it made it hard to keep his footing and therefore his speed.
"Hey! That one's running away!", he heard one of the men scream and he saw in the corner of his eye that the two closest to him started their pursuit. He picked up his pace even more, although he could feel his lungs protesting. They were already tormented through the amounts of seawater he had swallowed while almost drowning and were not happy about the heavy exercise.
"Hey! Stop!", one of his followers screamed but Zuko didn't even think about it.
He could feel them closing in but he was almost at the treeline. If he made it just a little bit further he would be safe.OR
After the Agni Kai, Ozai decides to send Zuko out to the ocean to die and make his way there as miserable as possible. To Zukos luck, the ship hits ground and the wreck gets washed up to Earth Kingdom shores, where a ship of the Southern Watertribe fleet finds the injured teen. Under his false name Lee, they offer to take him to the next port.

Summary
Bato looked back out the window, straining his eyes to see if there was anything down the street to his right. There was nothing of course, nothing except their dropped backpacks and his pounding heart.
“I don't know Bato,” Hakoda whispered, “Why don't you head back towards the house, alright? I'll meet you there in just a few minutes and then we’ll figure out what to do.”
“We have to go to the police.” There was nothing else they could do really. They only had so much power as concerned parents, and they did all they could by themselves. They needed help.
“We’ll go to the police station once we’re together, but for now just head home.”
“Okay.”
“I’m only a few minutes away.”
“Okay.” Bato restarted the car.
Hakoda hung-up with a final promise of seeing him soon.
He started driving. He didn't know it then, but he passed the corner his children laid pressed against an hour prior, heads bleeding and a foreign drug coursing through their veins. But he didn’t know it. How could he? He should’ve taken them this morning.He kept driving.

Hope is Something You Give Yourself by Autistic_Zuko

Summary
"Hope is something you give yourself. That is the meaning of inner strength." -Uncle Iroh
After Ozai is arrested (and shot lolol) for badly burning Zuko, Iroh takes in and adopts Zuko and Azula. With Lu Ten's help, Iroh saves enough money to move the family to Ba Sing Se, away from the bad memories of Caldera City. Iroh opens up the Jasmine Dragon and the siblings work there after school. The pair go to Ba Sing Se High, Zuko as a senior and Azula as a sophomore. There, Zuko meets the Gaang and falls for the loveable and excitable Sokka. Azula on the other hand sets her sights on Ty Lee and Mai.
Zuko and Aang are autistic because I said so, and Sokka has adhd. Also, Toph is nonbinary and uses she/they pronouns. -

Summary
He made him hollow you see. Empty inside, with button eyes and a stitched up smile. And when he’s had enough, he knows where he’ll go. He’ll be unstitched and pulled apart limb by limb. So that he can be made anew into whatever needs doing next. He can be as strong, and as beautiful and as fierce as he needs him to be. After all, he is his father's loyal son.
So even as he trips down stairs and falls out of trees. He assures that father loves him.
He HAS to. He whispers late at night in his dreams and his body burns.
- an au where Zuko covers for Ozai again and again not realising that Toph can hear his heart.

Summary
Mainly taking place in 95 AG.
Ozai (and Ursa) failed to kill Azulon, so Azulon punished Ozai. Ozai's punishment changes nearly everything at the Fire Palace.
This is the beginning of a majorly divergent AU of ATLA (Avatar: The Last Airbender) that reaches post-Hundred Year War and eventually into LoK (Legend of Korra). There are pairings that take place later, but not at the beginning because they're too young for that sort of nonsense.
