All these fics fit loosely together, but can most definitely be read independent of each other.

Summary
With three years at sea, Zuko’s eyes grew dark with perpetual thunderclouds. He couldn’t be farther from the boy in her memories who seemed like the sun personified.
But over these three years, Mai realized that the dark and the gloom suited her just fine. She was never much of a sunshine girl, anyway.
Or
Five moments leading up to the first time Mai said “I love you” out loud.

Summary
The attack on the Northern Water Tribe goes differently, Aang and the ocean spirit don’t destroy the entire Fire Nation fleet, only most of them.
Zhao escapes, taking Sokka and a few other Water Tribe men as prisoners. Knowing Sokka is traveling with the Avatar he gets sent to Zhao’s “special prison camp” that is hidden near the Earth Kingdom colonies.
Sokka gets a taste of the real war, not the war that he thinks he knows from traveling with the Avatar. While Zhao’s prisoner, he struggles to survive the inhuman conditions. Alone and thought to be dead, he feels himself slowly losing hope.
Seeing a familiar face brings back his hope, even if that face is the scarred Prince of the Fire Nation.
Sokka and Zuko come together to survive and end up depending on each other for a lot more than they ever thought possible.

Summary
To be good at politics, you have to understand people; Zuko’s perception of his own skill in this regard swings wildly on a pendulum between ‘hey I’m actually pretty good at this’ and ‘why am I such a fucking idiot’.

Summary
“I’m so proud of you, my nephew.” Uncle cups Zuko’s face in his lined hand. The gesture is so tender, his palm so warm, that Zuko has to take a fortifying breath against the sudden swell of emotion in his chest.
“I want to be a good leader, Uncle,” Zuko says. “I want to look after my people.”
“You will,” Uncle says. “You are, nephew.”
In a new era of peace, Zuko works to be a very different Fire Lord than his forefathers. Based on this tumblr post.

Summary
Zuko thinks the Avatar's collection of misfits is behaving weirdly. They're constantly acting like they know something he doesn't, like they know him when they definitely shouldn't, and they're constantly trying to get him to join them! Which he would never do!
(For some reason, Sokka, Katara, and Aang have memories of growing old, and all the steps it took to get there, but have no idea what triggered it other than breaking Aang out of the iceberg. Naturally, they want things to be better, but teenage Zuko, still in his angry yelling phase? Adorable. They can work with this.)

Aang Joins the Gaang Early by back_that_sass_up

Summary
Aang had never had siblings before. That wasn't really a *thing* for airbenders. But Katara made him promise to take her penguin sledding, and nine-year-old Sokka vowed he'd keep him safe like he did his sister.
So yeah. Aang had siblings now, and he'd protect them with his life.

A friendly reminder to defrost your Avatar thoroughly before cooking, for best results.

The Palace of Lies and Secrets by Genderfluid_Gremlin
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)
13 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
Sokka has been hated and abused his whole life for being a firebender, so when the Fire Nation comes to abduct him, it turns out to be a blessing. Everything changes when he meets Azula. Befriending the damaged princess, Sokka will learn that his new home is not nearly as perfect as it seems.
Meanwhile, Azula has never forgotten seeing her brother Zuko get murdered by their own father. Ever since, she has done everything she could to survive, even if she hates herself for who she's become. Befriending Sokka sets her on a new path, but will she continue to obey her father, or choose to make a stand against the war?
Everyone believes Zuko is dead. Little do they know he lives, trapped in a Fire Nation prison camp. There, he will discover the true cruelty of the war and suffer in ways he never imagined. When he finally returns to the Fire Nation palace, he will have to decide whether to enjoy happiness with the people he loves, or risk everything for a chance at stopping the hundred year war.
Sokka, Azula, and Zuko have all suffered terribly, but by finding strength in each other, they have a chance at ending the war and bringing peace to the world- if only they have the courage to try.

Summary
Ninety-six years after the last appearance of Sozin’s Comet, a freshly burned and banished thirteen-year-old Prince Zuko discovers a strange boy frozen in an iceberg.
When Zhao interferes with Zuko's plans to deliver the Avatar to his father, Aang helps Zuko and Iroh escape. They take refuge from the Fire Navy in the abandoned Air Temples, where the young Avatar searches for any remnants of his people that he can find. Along the way, Aang teaches an indoctrinated Zuko about the true nature of the Air Nomads, and the Fire Prince must come to terms with the fact that everything he has been taught was a lie, while the Dragon of the West must face the sins of his past.
Eventually, Aang and Zuko become close friends, and Zuko begins to feel things he has never felt for anyone before. However, Zhao will not give up easily, and will do whatever it takes to capture the Avatar and his traitor accomplices.
(A retelling of AtLA exploring the friendship and eventual romance that could have developed between Aang and Zuko if the circumstances of their meeting had been different.)
(CURRENT UPDATE SCHEDULE IS ROUGHLY EVERY 3-4 WEEKS)

Summary
Zuko idly mentions that he hasn’t seen Uncle in months-- and leaves out the fact that it’s slowly killing him inside-- and Aang suggests that he does what they’ve all been doing:
Make up an excuse.
Zuko is scandalized, because he’s the Firelord and he has to be responsible, but the more he thinks about it, the more he’s sure that he can manage to do great good for his people with a visit to Ba Sing Se. It’s not so much making up an excuse as it is knocking out two pigeon-hawks with one stone. Convenient for everyone.
