Summary
"We're going to be alcoholics by the time we're thirty," Sokka sighed.
"You think we'll live to be thirty?" Zuko asked, honestly thrilled. Sokka had pretty good instincts. Perhaps Zuko should reevaluate his long term goals. He could start by having long term goals.
A more likely alternative was that Sokka was just a hopeless optimist. It just went to show, you never truly saw another man until you stood shoulder to shoulder against a fleet of war balloons intent on raining death upon the city you loved.
Zuko was just a normal guy with normal interests. He liked theatre, burglary, crotchety ostrich horses, watching the Blind Bandit crush her opponents in a glorious display of skill and violence... just your standard banished prince things. It wasn't his fault he kept stumbling into rebellions and uncovering long-buried secrets. Fine, maybe freeing the prisoners was on him, but he was completely innocent of all other treason. Zuko was his father's loyal son. He'd never betray his nation.
Or:
Uncle Iroh took a more creative approach to fostering Zuko's appreciation of other cultures. Now it's everyone's Problem. -

Summary
In a world of the lost and the damned, all they have is each other.
When the world burns, and nobody is left unscathed, those that survive come together, finding community and safety in a world that knows no peace.
Among them are two lost souls: Katara and Zuko. One is a caregiver with the heart of fighter who's only ever known home, the other, an outcast without a purpose, given reason in this new world.
But when resources begin to dwindle, and members of their family vanish in an attempt to rectify this, Zuko is forced to leave their home, to bring their loved ones back home, and to try and find supplies for the village.
What starts as a journey to save his love ones, spirals uncontrollably into a world Zuko could never have known. A world where the dead and damned know no rest. Where the living would be better off dead. Where mad gods slumber and await the end of time. A world reborn from ashes.

Summary
Katara strikes a deal with a Spirit to help find out his unfinished business after he saves her from a demon. Easy, right? Only, Zuko isn't sure what his unfinished business is. Zuko's not even sure how he became a spirit. The longer that they get to know each other, the more Katara is uncertain if she can handle finding out.

Summary
Left behind at the Misty Palms Oasis, Katara waits days for Aang, Sokka, and Toph to return. But when bounty hunters close in, her only chance at escape comes from the last people she ever thought she could trust: Zuko and Iroh.
Now traveling under false names, bound by a fake marriage, and with no room for mistakes, Katara finds herself on the road to Ba Sing Se. What begins as mutual distrust slowly turns into eating side by side, sleeping even closer, and something far more dangerous: comfort. She thinks it will end once they reach the city, but in a place crowded with millions of refugees, and stuck in the Lower Ring, she doesn’t have much hope of finding the others. With no leads and nowhere else to go, she resolves to wait for her friends to find her.
But in their cramped apartment, days turn into weeks, and Zuko and Katara begin to settle into something that almost feels like domestic bliss. It isn’t real. Or at least, it isn’t meant to be. But the longer they stay, the harder it becomes to remember where the act ends and something real begins.

Summary
Here Zuko thought his situation couldn't get worse. But no, he has a camp full of restless men and an Omega teetering on the verge of heat. Of course he does. Because fate is never kind and Zuko's life is never simple.
ᘛᘗ
Katara should keep trying to escape. She should want to escape. Part of her wants to run, blindly, anywhere so long as it's away, but a growing part of her longs to give in, stop fighting, stay caught. Worse, the part of her that most wants to run is the part that knows Zuko would chase.In which two sexy idiots definitely know better, and yet.

Summary
It's been fifteen years since the war ended. The world is enjoying a time of peace - but peace depends on the strength and will of powerful people. Fire Lord Zuko has never lacked for willpower, but when his ruts begin to get dangerously long and enduring them alone puts his life at risk, something is going to have to give.
After years of suppressant use rendered her infertile, ultimately leading to the collapse of her bond with Aang, Katara has been building a new life for herself as Ambassador for her people. She never experienced her designation like other omegas and has lost hope that her body will ever recover, but Katara has filled her new life with rewarding work and good friends - most especially Zuko...
...and if his crisis has suddenly opened a door they both have long pretended did not stand between them, well...

Summary
Zuko has not worn a red uniform in over seven years. His bones burn underneath his skin. Through these rags, anger fries his nerves. He needs to accept it, his fate as a traitor, but the chambers in his chest can not ignore this ache. And now there are blue eyes staring at him from across this cell, and he is unsure if the spirits intended for him to ever let go.
OR,
Zuko is the name of a renegade from the Fire Nation, and Sokka is the name of his cellmate. -

Summary
When Azula captures Sokka and drags him before Fire Lord Ozai for execution, Zuko makes a split-second decision that changes everything. To save Sokka's life, he claims the Water Tribe warrior as his personal servant—a humiliating role that's the only thing standing between Sokka and the executioner's blade.
What begins as a desperate ploy to protect a prisoner becomes something far more complicated. By day, Sokka must play the obedient servant, wearing his cuffs and keeping his eyes down while Azula circles like a predator waiting for him to slip. By night, behind closed doors, he and Zuko forge an unlikely alliance built on whispered conversations and fragile trust.
But in the Fire Nation palace, safety is an illusion, and Azula is always watching. As the charade stretches from weeks into months, Sokka finds himself relying on Zuko's protection more than he ever expected—and Zuko discovers that keeping Sokka safe has become more important than his own precarious standing with his father. -

Summary
Katara Naqa is the daughter of the most prominent crime family in the South Pole. Or she was. Now, she's just another faceless girl in big bad Ba Sing Se, trying to make it on her own. Or... she was.
Zuko Sozin is the eldest son of the most ruthless arms organization in the Fire Nation. Or he was. Now, he's a struggling small business owner, trying to convince bored soccer moms to enroll their brats in his MMA gym. Or... he was.
Things are easier in the city when we take it on together. Even when it's harder (and spirits does it get harder), it's easier.
