    Summary

    Zuko was a child when he met Agni. Then, the spirits started coming to him. Eyes hidden in the hallways, voices pleading for help, for recognition, for remembrance.

    Zuko could see Agni. He could see the broken remains of a Great Spirit and the empty smiles of amnesiac ghosts.

    And they could see him in return.

    Summary

    The Avatar and his friends offer Zuko freedom. Freedom from General Bujing. From the forced servitude of slavery. From the empty nothingness that had consumed his life.

    He takes it even though he knows there has to be a cost (everything, even a life, has a cost).

    And while he slowly accepts that the offer was made with no strings attached, his newfound freedom will not allow him to escape the fact that because of him Uncle Iroh is dead. And after months of suppression... so too is his firebending.

    Summary

    Zuko couldn't sleep. Azula's words won't leave his mind.

    Summary

    "Scars are generally seen as a weakness. Especially for nobles. It’s unsightly.”

    There’s a moment of dead silence in which almost all eyes turn to stare at the left side of his face. Zuko keeps his mouth firmly closed.

    It’s Toph who breaks the tension. “Yeah, not to call your nation out or anything, Sparky, but you literally just said that you have a massive, blinding, and deafening scar on the side of your face. As the crown prince, that seems a little hypocritical of them.” Toph snarks.

    AKA: An innocent comment about scars leads to Zuko spilling his Tragic Backstory, and the chaos that follows that particular revelation.

    Summary

    Zuko was lucky to be born. Azula wasn't.

     

    Or,
    For as long as he could remember, Zuko was the only child. And yet there she is, his stillborn sister, sharing his body, bending his fire with a skill he could never dream of, and refusing to be ignored. The court whispers. Father insists there can only be one. But Zuko isn't even sure it's a battle he wants to fight.

     

    ____________

    Or,
    What if Azula was born dead, but spirit shenanigans happened, and with time it becomes apparent that she and Zuko are sharing his body. If it's even really spirit shenanigans and not just Zuko going crazy, that is.
