Summary
“You sure I can’t tempt you to come adventuring to unknown lands with me? Have a change by going on a field trip with less chance of death than our old ones?”
It’s an invitation Sokka has extended twice before when staying at the palace; on the day he leaves, he asks Zuko if he wants to come with him. And both times he had watched Sokka walk out of the palace gates, wishing he could be beside him instead of closed in his office focused on his duties as Firelord.
This time though, Zuko says something he hadn’t planned to say. Something he doesn’t even realise is out of his mouth until he hears the words, and then takes him another moment more to realise that he means it.
“Yeah, okay.”
(Alternatively titled: Zuko and Sokka's excellent adventure to escape adulthood)

Summary
"Sokka knows that his dad totally loved his mom, he was a wreck after she passed, and he also knows his dad is a catch who deserves someone who’ll see how cool he is. He knows this, and he was prepared to watch his dad move on. Get his groove back, if you will.
He just doesn’t know if he ever would’ve been ready for Zuko."
-or-
Sokka's dad brings home his young, new boyfriend for Easter. It's a lot.

Zuko is always horny. It's hard to concentrate on the Avatar when all he wants to do is stuff his ass full. If only he hadn't made Jee hate him, maybe he could hope for something...

Summary
Zuko hates his home. He likes college alright, but he likes Sokka even better, his assigned roommate turned best friend. Spending the summer with Sokka will be fun, a welcome change of pace he desperately wants. It probably won't awaken anything in him... right? (for the zukkanet august song lyric event)

Summary
“Sokka…” She sighs. “What do you remember?”
He shrugs nonchalantly. “Some assholes attacked us and I took an arrow to the shoulder. Zuko hid us out in a cave. I assume at some point we were rescued. That or I’m dead and this is a not very interesting version of the spirit realm.”
Katara smooths his hair back like mom used to, and he’s struck suddenly by how grown up she is. They’ve both become adults since their world-saving adventures with the avatar, but it’s easy to forget that his little sister isn’t so little anymore.
“You were bleeding out, and we weren’t expecting you back for a while, so… Zuko used firebending to cauterize the wound. It saved your life, but he’s not taking it well.” She looks away from him and Sokka is silently grateful. He doesn’t want her to see the blood drain from his face at her words.

Or what happens when Zuko is forced to use his bending in the one way he swore he never would.

Summary
“I, uh…” Zuko shifted in his seat. “Well…” He gestured vaguely, hands following the movement of his wrists. “Yes,” he settled on finally, averting his eyes. “I’ve met my soulmate.”
“What?” Sokka leaned forward interestedly, ignoring the soft ache behind his ribcage. “Is it that goth chick? Mel?”
“Mai,” Zuko snapped. “And...no, it’s not her.”
“Then who?” Suki asked. “Do we know her?”
“Yes—No. It doesn’t matter.”
“You don’t have to tell us, Zuko—” Katara started.
“Good!” Zuko said, standing up. “Because I don’t want to!”
--
Soulmate AU Where you see in grayscale until you hear your soulmate laugh for the first time. Sokka laughs a lot, loud, proud, and bright. Zuko...barely even smiles.

Summary
It’s Fire Nation tradition for one’s family to vet their child’s suitors before allowing them to begin a courtship.
Uncle finds out that Sokka’s been courting Zuko.
Busy with matters in Ba Sing Se, he sends a representative in his stead.
He sends Toph.
Sokka really, really wants to take Zuko out on a date, so it’d be really, really awesome if Toph would stop making it so difficult for him.

Summary
Zuko almost said it. He almost said the words I think I’m in love with you, but he choked them back down at the last second.
Zuko would never be able to be what Sokka wanted. They might have needed each other during the summer, when two boys with too much weight on their shoulders found comfort in each other in the only way they knew how.
But now Zuko was Fire Lord, and Sokka was leaving.
Or, a self indulgent Ambassador Sokka & Fire Lord Zuko fic set to the tune of ‘peace’ by Taylor Swift.

Summary
“He imagined Zuko kneeling before his own father, a man who didn't have any reservations about hurting a child, begging in the same way. He imagined his own son being this scared of fathers. He threw up.
Watery bile from weeks on prison food spilt through his lips and he was hacking, choking on grief and horror. War had filled his lungs with smaug and ash and as he gasped for air through tears he couldn’t care less for his own misery, only that of the boy before him.”
or
the 5 times someone realises Ozai isn’t the best parent +1 time they manage to convince Zuko of that fact
