    Zuko here- by

    Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)  

    31 May 2025

    Tags
    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.)

    Summary

    Sokka couldn't abandon his father when the invasion failed. It was his plan after all, his failure. If the ship was sinking Sokka would go down with it. He needed to prove himself. Katara is a wreck. She can't lose Sokka too, she just can't. With the invasion failing and the unwanted addition of a certain prince, Katara feels hopeless. Zuko desperately wants to prove he can be trusted. He knows trust is something you earn and he'll do whatever it takes. Understanding Sokka's choice to stay behind, Zuko knows just how to earn that trust.

    What if Sokka was captured alongside Hakoda and the others on the day of black sun?

    Summary

    What? Zuko’s mind swam. He was banished? The avatar…but the avatar was gone? He hadn’t been seen in one hundred years.

    “Your uncle tried to accompany you, but the Fire Lord has decreed that he is too useful to the nation as a General and has reinstated his position. He has not been allowed to see you.” The voice sounded hurried and urgent. “They are not allowing me to come on the journey and tend to your injury either.”

    Zuko was injured. His father had burned his face. He was banished, he was injured, and he was close to death. But Zuko was sure of at least one thing: He would survive. He had to. He was going to capture the Avatar and regain his honour. This was his last thought before he slipped into unconsciousness. A promise to himself and his nation.


    When Zuko loses the Agni Kai he is branded as a traitor to his nation and banished. The Fire Lord decrees general Iroh too valuable to be allowed to accompany his disgraced nephew. He is abandoned instead - left to fend for himself in a fire nation colony.

    Common Ground by

    05 Jul 2024

    Tags
    Summary

    An AU where the four nations speak different languages:

    The plan had been simple...

    Step 1. Break the Avatar out of the Pohuai Stronghold.
    Step 2. Drag the Avatar back to his ship.
    Step 3. Sail home.
    Step 4. Present the Avatar to his father and have his honor restored.

    Nowhere in the plan had Zuko accounted for becoming injured and the Avatar dragging him back to their camp. It certainly hadn't accounted for them taking him prisoner. Nor had it accounted for the added complication of Avatar's companions not having the decency to learn the Common Dialect. Only the Avatar understands him and communication in the group is a tangled mess.

    Because when you don't speak the same language, how can you find a Common Ground?

    The wanted poster had the scar on the wrong side.
    Maybe he didn’t care enough to look at the poster before it got sent out. Or maybe, Ozai didn’t actually remember which side of his son’s face he had burned off all those years ago. Zuko wasn’t sure what was worse. Ozai had know which side the scar was on. He had to remember. Right?
    ----
    In which Zuko isn't sure Ozai knows which side of his face he burnt off and it sends him spiraling.

    The Gaang asks why that is the thing he focuses on. His explanation leads to more questions.
    A couple offhanded remarks later, the Gaang starts asking the right questions.

    Summary

    For years, Zuko has believed the Fire Nation to be unstoppable. That is, until an iceberg washes up on his ship and leaves the long lost Avatar behind - except this Avatar is a fifteen year old girl who hasn't fought a day in her life and is wholly unprepared to stop a war and save the world. Armed with only his dual dao swords, his sister's bending, and the Avatar's skills, Zuko, Azula, and Ty Lee set out to master the elements and stop the Fire Lord, all while the clock ticks down to the end of summer and enemies surrounding them.

    They say the shadow of a flame casts its own light, and they shine the brightest of them all.

    a.k.a. the swap!au where Ty Lee is the Avatar, Zuko's a banished swordsman, Azula is a firebending master, also eventually featuring waterbender Yue and earth and metalbender Mai

    Summary

    "We're going to be alcoholics by the time we're thirty," Sokka sighed.

    "You think we'll live to be thirty?" Zuko asked, honestly thrilled. Sokka had pretty good instincts. Perhaps Zuko should reevaluate his long term goals. He could start by having long term goals.

    A more likely alternative was that Sokka was just a hopeless optimist. It just went to show, you never truly saw another man until you stood shoulder to shoulder against a fleet of war balloons intent on raining death upon the city you loved.

     

    Zuko was just a normal guy with normal interests. He liked theatre, burglary, crotchety ostrich horses, watching the Blind Bandit crush her opponents in a glorious display of skill and violence... just your standard banished prince things. It wasn't his fault he kept stumbling into rebellions and uncovering long-buried secrets. Fine, maybe freeing the prisoners was on him, but he was completely innocent of all other treason. Zuko was his father's loyal son. He'd never betray his nation.

     

    Or:
    Uncle Iroh took a more creative approach to fostering Zuko's appreciation of other cultures. Now it's everyone's Problem.

    To save her tribe, Katara marries the Fire Prince in secret.

    He’s supposed to be her enemy—cold, calculating, dangerous. But behind locked doors and whispered lies, something far more dangerous begins to burn between them.

    “I’m not a killer, Katara,” he breathes against her ear. “But for you… I could be.”
