    Summary

    Fire, Earth, Water and Air.

    The way they were sorted was stupid. Personality tests to access which house you'd fit in the most and then boom you share a common room with those people. He'd been put into Fire and everyone jokingly calls their common room and dorms the fire nation. Each dorm has a name and Zuko got Caldera.

    The Earth kids were normally stubborn and into nature everyone called their area of the school the Earth kingdom. Some of the dorms were shared between the Fire and Earth kids people joked they were fire nation colonies.

    The Water group was full of people who had big dreams and good grades but each year they were getting less and less. It was kinda sad really. Kids coming in each year were 11 years old meant to be happy and full of hope and all the other bullshit Zuko would've laughed at when he was 11.

    The Air kids had the old towers of the school and everyone joked they looked like temples and so the Air kids had Air temples. Being sorted into the Air group was a nice way of calling them autistic. Lots of the kids had special nerdy interests but were the most bubbly and yet serious people Zuko has ever met.

    Summary

    Azula would call Suki a thorn in her side, but that would almost acknowledge her as a major irritation. One she can't handle. No, Suki is more like a tiny wooden splinter wedged underneath her fingernail. Embedded too deep to remove. Just an annoyance to ignore and forget about.

    Suki visits Azula once a month while she's in exile. Azula hates it.

    (She doesn't)

    Summary

    Azula’s first ever therapy session takes place within the walls of an institution.

    Zuko can’t go to therapy without feeling the ache of his childhood doctor’s ruler smacking across his palm, but maybe there are other ways to talk.

    Sokka’s first therapy session since his Mom died takes place in the campus health clinic three days after he snaps.

    Summary

    Sokka's expression is caught somewhere between determined and pissed off when he says, “I know you think this is your responsibility. But you’re not going to be alone in this. This is why we’re building you a council.”

    “I know,” Zuko says.

    “And the only way you’re going to die having done nothing but sit in meetings is if you let yourself do that. You’re not a bad leader if you take a break now and then.”

    Zuko scowls. “What, so people can then say at least my father wasn’t lazy?”

    Sokka tilts his head. “Don’t you think there’s a difference between laziness and, I don’t know, choosing life and happiness in spite of a terrible dad who tried to take both from you?”

    ----------

    Zuko is sixteen years old when he’s handed a crown, a throne, and a hundred-year ancestral legacy of colonial imperialism. He’s not scared of the work; he’s scared of being consumed by the responsibilities and burdens he’s claimed. What Zuko doesn’t quite realize, yet, is that he’s not alone in this.

      I don't know how the author captures so well the flow of change, the aching balance of joy and devastation that slowly cycles through life. I'm crying and I don't know why. Can I live in this story? I feel like these are people and places I know in my soul

    Summary

    Photokinesis (noun) - the movement of an organism in the response to the stimulus of light.

    In the era of Avatar Korra, there are very few who would call the miserable fate that befell Princess Azula after the Hundred Year War in any way justified. It was one of many events that history and morality look back on - a cautionary tale, and an inescapable tragedy.

    Until it wasn't.

    Summary

    [So Iroh will sit, and model calm and foundational breathing exercises, and make Azula’s favorite tea the way she likes it best. And he will hold back his words much as it pains him to let her rage in silence. Because he has learned, slow and painful as it was, that his niece likes his words far less than his nephew, and some days it feels like that means all Iroh has left to give is tea.

    He does not know what he is going to do when he runs out of ginger.]

    Or,

    After the Comet, Iroh tries to support Azula's recovery, and learn all the ways his niece is not like his nephew.
