Summary
What if Zuko had been a little more brash when Commander Zhao captured him and the Gaang at Roku’s temple?
Well, for one, the Gaang would’ve learned how Zuko got his scar. Because Zhao is ready to give Zuko a matching one on the other side.

Summary
When Zuko first joins, He wouldn't sit with them to eat. And then when he was forced, he barely ate anything. But it's okay because he has rations left over. At least that's what Zuko said, He said he had plenty but who knows how long they'll last? He gives sokka and Katara Some rations for when they eat but it's probably because he has plenty left right? wrong.
Zuko is stupid and doesn't want to say no to the Gaang so he just ends up passing out from not eating

Summary
Sokka got separated from the rest of the Gaang in Gaipan, presumed dead but really just rotting on a prison ship. Zuko was banished to the 41st for his disrespect against his Father, floating around the military until he too was sent to jail for the worst crime of all: being liked more than the actual general.
There's only one thing these boys have in common: A little sister they would do anything for.
Is that enough to form a friendship for long enough to make it to the North Pole on foot, through the dangerous Whoop-up territory full of bandits and dark spirits?
Spoiler alert: No. But throw in a 40 of fire whisky and they can cobble together *something* resembling friendship.

Summary
Azula's eyes are clear and curious and pure. This child doesn’t have to turn into broken, unhinged teenager ready to strike down her own brother with lightning. She doesn’t have to grow up thinking herself unlovable.
"Let’s have each other's backs," she says, looking right into Azula's innocent eyes. "Always."
_______________
Or, a random woman dies and is reborn as Prince Zuko of the Fire Nation. She’s not happy about it, but no one’s asking for her opinion. So here she is, trying to figure out how to use her vague memories of the show to survive until Aang’s return, while also attempting to (manipulate) guide her affection-starved little sister toward a redemption arc. Gotta take that silver sandwich bite!

Summary
“Sokka,” Fire Lord Zuko speaks up. “Are you done talking to them? Because if so-”
“Let's say I'm done, but we'll still have to talk,” says Older Sokka. “We have a problem. More precisely, five problems. These are not members of the New Ozai Society, trying to kill you by disguising themselves as us. It's us. From the past.”
“Hey!” objects loudly younger Sokka. “What are you doing, future me?”
Or: on their way to the North Pole, Aang, Katara and Sokka are ambushed by Zuko and his uncle. Somehow, this leads to them visiting the future.

Summary
"Azula’s answering grin is bitter and horrible and broken as she leans in close to Aang’s face and says, ‘Listen Avatar, I can either join your group, or I’ll do something unspeakably horrible to your friends. Your choice.’”
OR: After Zhao’s failed siege, Zuko and Iroh are captured. A few weeks later, Ozai receives a ransom from the Northern Water Tribe signed in Zuko’s blood. Unfortunately for the Firelord, Zuko’s safety is all Azula cares about.
OR: Unfortunately for Sokka, that means the Gaang has not one, but two unstable, broken fire siblings to deal with. Y’know. Once they break Zuko out of prison. Because this is not a situation that calls for torture (probably. HE'S still on the fence about it, screw Aang and Katara and their stupid morals and how much he agrees with them)

Summary
Sokka doesn’t like his soulmate. It’s not like he even knows who they are, but the second he found out about his pain being shared with his soulmate through their bond he did everything in his power to get hurt as little as possible because it was the right thing to do and everybody knew that. Except his soulmate, apparently.
