Summary
Katara Waterbends in front of Yon Rha before Kya can sacrifice herself.
Rather than killing the child, the Southern Raiders ensure she is shipped to the Fire Nation palace dungeon, far from snow and moonlight.Three weeks later, a clever, ambitious royal with a habit of sneaking around grandfather’s palace overhears that the last Southern Waterbender has been brought to her permanent cell. She sneaks into the dungeon at night, attempting to see the prisoner for herself. Yet, instead of finding an embittered warrior, all Princess Azula sees is a girl her age, scared and alone.
Her perspective on the Hundred-Year War is fundamentally changed forever.

Summary
The events at Crescent Moon Island during the Winter Solstice turn out a little differently. As the volcano erupts thanks to Roku's wrath, chaos consumes the temple, and Sokka tries to save their new ally Shyu, but ends up trapped and collapsing from exhaustion and heat. Drifting between life and death, he dreams of home, playing childhood games with Katara and hearing his mother’s voice, before the dream twists into darkness.
When he wakes, it’s to the face of his supposed enemy: Prince Zuko.
Stranded together on a failing Fire Nation skiff, they’re forced into an uneasy alliance that tests every instinct and belief they’ve ever held.
Just how will Sokka navigate all the obstacles and hardships life throws at him? How much will he have to endure before he runites with Katara?
This series is my love letter to the Avatar: The Last Airbender series. I fell in love with it when it was released back in 2005, and loved it ever since. I intend to rewrite all 3 books of the series with a darker and more mature twist, so join me on this Canon Divergence rewrite!

Summary
Zuko was born a girl, Azula a boy—and the Fire Nation never imagined the unwanted daughter of the second son would ever be named Crown Princess. But when she is, Zhao sees the opportunity. And takes it.
Some things never change. Zuko is still banished, still hunting the Avatar. But this time, she’s not fighting for her honor, but for her daughter’s future.

Various Azula-centric AU/Post-Canon concepts by ThePrincessRegent

Summary
A dumping ground for concepts/ideas regarding Azula-centric ATLA AUs that I don't have time to fully develop (at least for now), including AUs based off my fics like Red Water, Azure Flame.
This is a spontaneous dump of writing (some of which will be copied from replies to comments of my own fics). If you'd like to write/draw something based on any of my ideas, just credit me for inspiration first. I'm always open to talking about any of these.

Summary
“I’ll miss you, Yu-Yu!” The little girl’s voice was muffled due to their hug. The First Lord’s Harbor was busier than usual; it was a big day after all. Two of the most important in the Fire Nation were being exiled. Yyoru, even at eleven, knew that this would be the last time she might ever see the Fire Nation.
That was 2 years ago and now Yyoru is Prince Zuko's right hand woman in the search of the avatar.

Summary
"So you take the knife to the wall instead. You carve and carve until a coin of light appears and you get to look in, at last, on happiness. The eye staring back from the other side—waiting." — Ocean Vuong, Torso of Air
***
When Mai gets a call in the dead of the night from Zuko's uncle about how Zuko hasn't come home since the end of the school day and their breakup, her mind doesn't automatically assume kidnapping. She doesn't think anyone could be capable of making Zuko disappear.
But then she finds Zuko's shoe hidden in a dirty curb, and she wishes for once that she was wrong.

Summary
Zuko had scrubbed the smell of sex and blood of himself, but that didn’t stop it from clinging to the inside of his nose. Could the others smell it? Could they taste his shame in the back of their throats too?
Irrationally, Zuko wanted to crawl inside himself. Peel those watching eyes off him; don’t look at me! They knew, somehow. They could see it on him. Some kind of tell, some stain he couldn’t see or wash away.
What if they all knew? Laughing behind his back at what he’d given up just for a fraction of a chance to get his honor back.
What honor? Any scrap he’d had left after the Agni Kai was lost the moment he spread his legs for Zhao.
They could all see it, couldn’t they?
Zuko wondered if he could ever be rid of the things Zhao did to him.
Zuko deals with the aftermath.
He goes about it the same way he deals with every other shitty thing in his life: with gritted teeth, stubborn pride, and a whole lot of yelling.Series

Summary
If there was anything Zuko wanted more than his fathers approval, it was nothing.
So when Ozai’s touches began to linger, eyes began to wander, Zuko decided he would do anything to keep his father’s attention, to be loyal beyond a doubt at any expense necessary.
Even himself.

Summary
In a desolate corner of the Old West, Sokka—a war veteran turned farmer—watches his world go up in flames when a gang of outlaws attacks his ranch. Within hours, his home is reduced to ashes, his family slaughtered, and his wife kidnapped.
With a shattered heart and rage boiling over, Sokka sets out on a brutal manhunt, joined by his old comrades: Zuko, a war-hardened sheriff, and Aang, a reverend with more scars than faith. Together, they’ll ride through hostile lands, dodge bullets, cross Indian territory, and face a band of lawless bastards who fear neither God nor the devil.
In a world where justice is a loaded revolver and honor gets buried with the dead, Sokka will do whatever it takes to get the woman he loves back… even if it means filling the desert with corpses.

Summary
En un desolado rincón del Viejo Oeste, Sokka, un veterano de guerra convertido en granjero, ve su mundo arder cuando un grupo de forajidos ataca su rancho. En cuestión de horas, su hogar queda reducido a cenizas, su familia masacrada y su esposa, secuestrada.
Con el corazón hecho mierda y la rabia a flor de piel, Sokka se lanza a una cacería brutal, acompañado por sus viejos camaradas: Zuko, el sheriff de rostro endurecido por la guerra, y Aang, un reverendo con más cicatrices que fe. Juntos cabalgarán a través de tierras hostiles, esquivando balas, cruzando territorios indios, y enfrentando a una banda de bastardos sin ley que no temen ni a Dios ni al diablo.
En un mundo donde la justicia es un revólver cargado y el honor se entierra con los muertos, Sokka hará lo que sea para recuperar a la mujer que ama… aunque tenga que llenar el desierto de cadáveres para lograrlo.Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5GFZsKj53gJNG5qjbJJxRg?si=LGL5VEaKRdCsBjAz-Exvkw&pi=4yQur2FiSw-gc

Summary
Closing his eyes, Zuko breathed deep through his nose. In and out. Just focus on his breath control and not what awaited him in the other room.
For a split second, the only thing he wanted was to bolt back out the window, through the harbor and back to the safety of the Pariah. Zuko just wanted to go home.
This is the only way you’re going to be able to go home, he reminded himself. Repair the ship, capture the Avatar, restore your honor. This is a small price to pay for that.
Swallowing, Zuko forced his feet forward.
Zuko's visit to Zhao's port goes a little differently.
or
Zuko has a deal where a trades sexual favors with Zhao for aid and supplies. This gets him in trouble when his ship is damaged by the Avatar and the only safe place to dock is at the port of everyone's least favorite (Vice) Admiral.
And he's in heat.Series

Summary
Instead of going straight to the Northern Water Tribe after the Northern Air Temple, Sokka, Katara, and Aang end up being captured by Zhao and kept prisoner on his ship. It’s cold, dark, seemingly inescapable, and Zhao is ruthless.
Good thing the Earth Kingdom woman in the cell next to them has a thing or two to say about the mistreatment of a couple of kids.
Meeting her changes everything, yet in some ways, it also changes nothing at all.
(Fic title from the song “Never Love An Anchor” by The Crane Wives)
!! Rated Teen for swearing and canon-typical violence !!

Summary
Ozai is a careless leader. She learns this early on, wary of his scathing tongue and biting words, yet intrigued by how he doesn't hold back, even for the sake of diplomacy. This is not how you rule a country. This is how you start a civil war and lose all your allies.
Azula is careful, she picks and chooses and strikes when the time is right, not before and not after. She realizes that her father is a careless leader, and that, if left to him, the entire Fire Nation will be burnt to the ground. This will not do, Azula will be Fire Lord soon, and a ruler needs her subjects. Logically, the only thing to do in this case is seek the help of her dead brother, traitor uncle, and their miscreant group of friends that they seem to have acquired, including the avatar he was sent to kill.
basically me giving azula the redemption she deserves bc hell yeah
