Summary
Across the room, Jet's gathering up empty bowls — ahem, hiding the evidence. He grins over his shoulder at Zuko.
"We didn't make a bad team, did we?" he says, sitting down crosslegged across from him. His dark eyes glitter in the light coming from the lanterns.
"No," Zuko says, looking down at his bowl. "We didn't."
(the fic where Zuko uses his big brain cells to prevent his uncle outing them as firebenders in an Earth Kingdom city; this has unforseen consequences. Not all of them are bad.)

Summary
To Zuko, life is a stage and an important play is taking place in front of him. He believes that it is his destiny to keep the story on track no matter what and ensure everyone gets a happy ending. Things would be so much easier if the characters would stop dying, killing him, and/or ending up in some sort of catastrophic situation. It doesn't really matter, he will reset the stage as many times as it takes until everything is perfect.

Summary
“We had fun at the tea shop, right?” Sokka said gently. “You had a good time?”
“I... I guess...” Zuko’s heel bounced against the floor.
“I had a good time,” Sokka nodded firmly, “and I’d like to be friends. Step one is eating lunch together.”
He watched the visible confusion deepen over the other boy’s face.
“Step one of what?”
Spirits.
“Being friends.”

Summary
Aang isn’t the Avatar. But… he used to be…
But water doesn’t call to him, not in the way he knows it’s supposed to. And then, he is saved from Pohuai Stronghold by… an airbender?!
This masked guy that saved him, rescuing him with two swords and a small bout of accidental airbending… is the Avatar. Not Aang. Not… not anymore.
And he’s looking for a Master to teach him air.

Summary
Zuko blinks. Registers. And then he snorts a little. “What, because of my eyes?”
Laughter is bubbling up and bursting out of Sokka before he’s fully even understood what’s happening. He straightens to look at Zuko through eyes squeezed in mirth and slightly filling with tears. Zuko looks surprised but utterly delighted, and no force in the world can stop Sokka from planting a huge wet kiss on his cheek.
“Darling. Zuko. Sunshine. Honey. Oh my spirits,” he says, still laughing. “How long have you been robbing the world of your humour, my love. Snow and sea, I taught you too well.”A simple headcanon about favourite colours.
Sokka and Zuko learn more about each other as they watch the sun rise together. Turns out eyes aren't the reason after all, and maybe they were always sort of meant to be.

Summary
Modern AU. The one thing Zuko has managed to hang onto over the years is his starring role in musical theater. When his father’s arrest results in him and Azula moving to be with their uncle in Ba Sing Se, though, the local high school has already started casting for the spring production of Cinderella--and the star role of Prince Charming is taken. But Cinderella herself remains un-cast.
... Never let it be said that Zuko would let anything stand in-between him and musical theater, let alone something like gender roles.

Summary
Zuko Sozin has been bounced from foster family to foster family since his father burned half his face off at age 13. He's never been with a family like this one, though. This one's got two dads, foster siblings who actually seem to want to get to know him, and a high school with a yearly musical.
This one might just be for forever. But if Zuko's learned one thing in his life, it's not to hope for that kind of luck.

The Black Spirit by FreakOfYourNature
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender, Hollow Knight (Video Games)
16 Nov 2020
Tags
Summary
Zuko beheld an enormous stone door, carved with a symbol that resembled a tree, or perhaps a crown. It was weathered with age, and near the bottom of the door, there was great rent in the stone, creating a hole just big enough for someone of his size to squeeze through. It was odd though, that the hole looked like it was made by someone smashing the stone in from the other side…almost like something broke through from the other side and escaped.

Turtleducks and Glow Toads by ShiveringRose
Fandoms: The Dragon Prince (Cartoon), Avatar: The Last Airbender
03 Sep 2025

Summary
In retrospect, it was probably Zuko’s fault for making a clearly powerful spirit mad. It definitely wasn’t his smartest move, but in his defense, he’d had a long day.
Zuko finds himself in the world of the Dragon Prince and things spiral from there.

Definitely the Blue Spirit (Not)... (Maybe?) by Huni_obri
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)
09 May 2025
Tags
Summary
As Fire Lord, one thing that Zuko was in charge of was sentencing the prisoners. Usually, that only included going through the person's file and determining if the crime is worth a trial or not. But now, after the war ended, the job obligations changed—at least for the time being. Now, Zuko needed to go through all the files and determine if the person on the list even committed a crime at all.
And one file he comes across is of a man being charged for being the Blue Spirit. Which isn't right. He is the Blue Spirit. Zuko.Or
Zuko leaves clues that lead his guard to believe he's the Blue SpiritSeries

Summary
"His mom had given him a diary.
No, not a diary–– a journal, she had specified. He knows it’s a diary. Zuko thinks she only called it a journal because she thought that Zuko wouldn’t use it if she said otherwise. A diary is for feelings and angst, but a journal was for working through your problems without all that mushy, gushy stuff. It was for writing out simply what was in your head, nothing more, nothing less."
or, zuko through the years, struggling with himself and his sexuality.

Across the campfire, Toph cracked a joke and Zuko bit back a laugh, a small smile curving across his face.

Summary
The boy was convinced, with the kind of terrified fervor that could only come from harsh words and painful blows, that every action he took, every thought he had, every impulse he forgot to suppress, was somehow a failure.
Was somehow rude, or disrespectful, or wrong.
Was somehow worthy of punishment.
So Iroh made tea. And made space. And made plans.
Iroh loves tea, and loves Zuko. Not necessarily in that order.
