Summary
When Zuko was seventeen, he asked Uncle why he always treated him so differently– so much gentler –than his own father had.
Iroh had taken a long slow sip of his ginseng tea, and then gazed at Zuko with sad amber eyes. “I cannot speak for my brother,” he answered eventually. “But I believe we have very different views on how to treat those who are important to us.”

Summary
For his crimes against the Fire Nation, Prince Iroh was sentenced to death. Of course, Zuko couldn't let that stand, and so his faceoff against the Fire Lord happened sooner than expected. Zuko escaped with a charge of high treason to his name and a reward on his head. Like mother like son, Zuko decided to disappear. With a new face, a new name, and an old dream, Zuko knocked on Master Piandao's door.
Little did he know that a certain Water Tribe warrior, weighed down with a promise to his father and a slowly-deteriorating self-esteem, was not too far behind.
In hindsight, considering the look of sheer horror on Zuko's face when he saw Sokka standing next to Piandao, "childhood friends" was not the story they should have gone with.

Summary
With a defiant yell, Azula launched a bolt of lightning directly at Katara.
"No!" Zuko shouted, leaping toward it.
If he could just get in front of it, he could still catch it. Still send it away. Somewhere far away from Katara. Even if that somewhere was his own body, it would be worth it.
He fell short.
OR
Azula hits Katara with lightning in the last Agni Kai and Zuko goes absolutely feral.

Summary
Azula failed in capturing the Avatar. But the Gaang was far from victorious.
Iroh was nearly killed, and some things were said that can never be taken back.How will the Avatar and his prince go from here?
How will they all go from here?
--------
Inspired by biconickyoshi "The Avatar and The Fire Prince", this is a headcannon of mine on how the Gaang will react after confronting Azula in the Desert.
This follows biconickyoshi's canon until "Chapter 34: Book 3: Earth, Chapter 6: The Blind Bandit". After it's my idea of how the story will advance.

Summary
Cultural Reciprocity (n.)
The dynamic or material exchange of knowledge, values, and perspectives between two or more different cultures.“In the Southern Water Tribe,” Sokka begins in a scholarly tone—like he’s about to recite an oral history, “warriors wear wolf-tails, and keep the hair on the crown of their heads pulled back.”
“Kids and bachelors keep the sides of their hair short. Since Bato witnessed my ice-dodging ceremony when I was sixteen, I’ve been considered an adult for a while now. Growing my hair out is symbolic of maturity,” And this is where Sokka breaks eye contact with Zuko for the first time, looking back down at the table and picking up his cup of tea (iced, which he insists is a Tribe thing but still makes Zuko cringe) to cradle between his wide palms. And then he opens his mouth, and in six words freezes Zuko’s heart and rattles him down to the core—
“And of my intent to marry.”
“Marry,” Zuko repeats dumbly.A/N: This fic spends a lot of time exploring the lore of the world of A:TLA, particularly its ties to real-world Asian and Indigenous cultures. It also happens to be a love story, too.

Summary

Summary
Zuko knew that joining the Avatar and his group would be hard. After all, he'd chased them around the world, found them in Ba Sing Se (on accident really), and ended up helping his sister almost end the existence of the Avatar itself. So...his chances really hadn't been that great in the first place. Honestly, why he'd thought it'd be easy, he really wasn't sure. Another bad idea to throw on the pile of Zuko's past. But hey, it wasn't all bad. He's...different now, at the very least. Now he just has to hope that means he's better too.
