The Scars in Her Flames by Venommocity
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)
23 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
All Azula wants is silence. To be freed from the echoes of her mother's ghost, the judgement in her brother's eyes, and the memories of the childhood she spent clawing at perfection. Upon Zuko's royal decree, she's released from the institution she'd been placed in at the end of the war, but it isn't the peace she'd been hoping for. Instead, she finds herself being dragged to Ember Island, where Zuko and his friends are determined to help her heal.
Despite the group's efforts, Azula is dejected and uninterested in their help. Her resentment only grows as she endures their attempts to fix what she doesn't even believe to be broken.
To her growing frustration, she finds an unexpected solace in the last person she expects: Katara. And no matter how much she tries, Azula can't seem to push her away.

Summary
Aka Book One: Void
After the fall of the Radiance the pale siblings are left with the responsibility of looking after what remains of Hallownest. But while investigating the failing seals on the edge of the kingdom something goes wrong. Separated, the siblings face a new host of problems. They need to find each other again. They need to find their way back to Hallownest. But with the waring nations of the land they find themselves in it might just be easier to solve that problem before moving onto their own.
The Gaang did not intend to adopt a strange masked child who may or may not be a spirit, but it's not like they could just leave them on their own. Besides, if they're already traveling to the North Pole they might just run into whoever the child is looking for on the way.

Summary
"Katara ran her thumb over the soft, raised skin around his injured eyed. She knew what he was thinking. It was only the scar that held him back, nothing else. If the scar was gone, so would be the pain."
It is storytime around Team Avatar's campfire, and everyone is curious about the tale behind Zuko's scar. But some memories are too painful to talk about.
AKA Zuko trusts Katara more than she thought.

When Zuko is injured fighting his sister on her behalf, Katara feels the least she can do is be like the sister he never had.
Too bad Zuko has other ideas.

Tags
Summary
Katara has been cruising through her biochemistry degree at Ba Sing Se University, well on her way to medical school, when Organic Chemistry II puts a kink in her plans. The class throws her for a loop, and she spends long hours with the TA, a sweet guy named Haru. Then Haru is out sick, and his inscrutable roommate Zuko fills in for him. Zuko is handsome in a sharp sort of way, if you're into arrogant self-centered assholes, which she's not. Only, he's an excellent teacher, and when he's not being a jerk he is unbearably kind, and he captivates her in a way she can't explain. He throws her for a loop, just like O-Chem, only not like O-Chem at all.

Summary
AU where Zuko realises early into his banishment that Ozai is an abusive bastard who sent him on a wild goose chase. Iroh turns their decommissioned warship into a floating tea shop, and Zuko settles down as a tea server onboard the Jasmine Dragon.
And then, years later, the Avatar emerges from the iceberg.
And then Aang decides that he wants Zuko, the first good firebender he’s met this century, to be his firebending teacher - even though Zuko wants nothing to do with him.
Based on this tumblr post.

The Weight of the Crown by AuroraAthena
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)
06 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Five years stretch between Sokka and that fateful Agni Kai, each one pulling him closer to this moment—the day he finally returns to the Fire Nation. To Zuko. The ambassador position had practically fallen into his lap, and if anyone suggests he'd campaigned relentlessly for it, well... that's pure speculation. This is about diplomacy. Obviously.
But the Fire Nation that greets him isn't the one he left behind. New faces crowd the palace halls, circling around Zuko like moth-wasps to flame. One figure stands apart—Advisor Wang. She commands the court's attention with effortless grace, and more importantly, she stands where Sokka once stood: at Zuko's side.
But this is fine, right? They're just friends. It's good. It's fine.

Summary
A collection of Zuko-centric one-shots that can be read independently with the exception of the ‘Flares’ series.
Fics mostly contain angst, hurt/comfort, whump, some humor, and of course the generic “The gaang finds out how Zuko got his scar”

Summary
“I took Ba Sing Se, not Uncle, and certainly not you; I got us this far. You’re stealing what’s rightfully mine. If anyone should get to see this, it’s me, and you should be grateful I’m here because you couldn’t end the war on your own!”
The words are tremulous with emotion, rushing and almost painful for how they scrape past her teeth, and still, even she knows they sound petulant—a child’s concern. But she is loud, and more than that, she’s right. All Azula has ever wanted is the respect of standing at her father’s side and—pitifully—the love inherent to the honor. She can’t lose it when she’s this close.
But then Azula’s father steps towards her, and his fist is wreathed in fire, the temperature of his flame so hot it’s blue—her blue—where it’s closest to his skin.
Azula hardly has time to process what’s going to happen before his palm meets her cheek in a slap.
//
The day before Sozin’s Comet returns, Azula finds that Zuko is not the only child her father is willing to strike, and Azula’s destiny changes.

Summary
I watched Aang examine the necklace, and a dead silence came over him. He had thought he was the last air-bender. Yet, in his eyes, I could tell he realized that no matter how much the Fire Nation tried to destroy the world, the world would always find a way to keep the balance.

Summary
“Azulon has ordered Zuko’s death,” Ursa’s voice cracked.
“What?” Lu Ten’s eyes widened.
Zuko was barely four years old!
“Ozai said it would have been better for you to have never been born at all than being an Omega. He offended the Fire Lord, who declared if death was better, then Zuko shall die.”
“Gods above,” Lu Ten breathed.
“Ozai and I have a plan,” Ursa whispered. “I’m going to kill him.”
“That’s treason!” Lu Ten hissed.
“I will not survive the night.” Ursa closed her eyes. “I need your help, Lu.”
“Anything.”
“Without me, Zuko and Azula will have no one to protect them from him. You must take them as far from this place as possible.”
Lu Ten’s own life was in jeopardy, for any child he bore would have a claim on the throne.
“Please,” Ursa begged. “My life is forfeit, but my children—”
Lu clutched her hands. “I will take them, and I will love them as my own.” It was an easy promise to make. He already loved his little cousins.-
