Summary
A Fire Nation courier ship arrives in the Southern Water Tribe under a flag of surrender. Its passenger is Prince Zuko: wounded, chemically suppressed, disowned, and carrying proof that Ozai plans to destroy what remains of the South before Sozin’s Comet.
Zuko offers military intelligence, naval codes, and his claim to the throne in exchange for sanctuary. But Fire Nation law treats a royal omega’s defection as impossible, and any nation sheltering him will be branded an enemy.
An old Southern law offers protection: if Hakoda binds Zuko to his household, the prince will become kin rather than a captive.
The marriage is meant to be strategic. Hakoda promises safety and choice; Zuko intends to make himself useful. Neither expects Sokka to return home and find an enemy prince at his father’s side.
As winter closes around the South, political refuge becomes marriage, marriage becomes home, and three men must decide whether love can exist without possession—and whether family can take a shape none of them were taught to expect.

Summary
"You think I hate you? You think I'd ever kill you?" Sokka holds Zuko's face in both hands, blood dripping from his lips. "I'd fall on my sword for you. I'd find you anywhere. What do you think that means?"
Rescued, but imprisoned, Zuko finds himself no further from death on a water tribe ship. Sokka, the chief, would see him bleeding out on the boards of the deck as justice. He's a fire bender, the evil of the war that his father rages through their world. Zuko hasn't been a part of that war. Not for years. Now he's thrust back into it against his will, finding himself fighting on a side he never expected to be a part of. Maybe he'll find a cause worth fighting for; someone worth fighting for.

Summary
It started when he was younger, a passing thing he had done in the first foster home he could remember being in. He would close his eyes tightly, squeezing to the point he could make out sparks of color underneath his eyelids, and would take one last gasp for air before holding it just as tightly in his lungs. Then, he would wait.
The first time, he heard nothing but the sound of a porch swing creaking in the wind outside of his bedroom window. Cars passing by on the street outside. The gentle groans of a house eight times as old as him. No footsteps. Nobody coming running out of a divine sense that the little boy had stopped breathing. The world kept spinning and his lungs soon ached for the rapidly depleting oxygen. Nobody came.
The place changed, his lung capacity even changed, but the one universal constant was that nobody ever came through the door.
Maybe that's why Leon, drunk out of his mind on a motel floor, hadn't even heard the first knock.

Summary
“I could spend your heat with you,” Chris said, facing Leon as he leaned his hip against the balcony railing. “If you want,” He quickly added. There was a nervous twitch of a smile on his lips and his hand fidgeted against the stone knobbled ledge.
Leon blinked at him, wide and disbelieving. He couldn’t have heard that right. There was no way Chris was offering to do this for him. He knew what Leon would need from an alpha; intimacy, almost constant physical touch, sex.
“Do you understand what you’re offering right now?”

But when Fire Lord Zuko, the alpha of alphas, finds himself divorced, heirless and cornered by enemies in his own court, he decides to ask his old friend to help him fix the succession problem. By letting Sokka fuck his alpha body into an omega's and breed a Fire Nation heir into him.
What can Sokka say? He's a giver.

Come moony-lamp with chaste and splendid light,
Shine on these sacred rites with prosp'rous rays,
And pleas'd, accept thy suppliant's Mystic praise.-

Summary
Chris scowled and crossed his arms over his chest, certain he looked absurd. A huge man still in his uniform and gear, sitting in a small chair in a tiny office. His biceps were the size of O’Brian’s computer. “I did what I had to do to get the job done.”
“And that’s all we ever expect,” O’Brian replied. “Regardless, people saw. People took notice. People who decided you’d be the best person to keep Agent Kennedy on a leash and controlled.”
“What the fuck is he doing?”
O’Brian paused. “I’m assuming you haven’t heard, then.”
“Heard what?”
“Sherry Birkin is dead.”

Summary
There was a strange finality in the air, the feeling weighing Chris down and pressing against his chest in a way that was making it hard to breathe. The BOW seemed to be able to sense it too as it arose from within the tank, water streaming off its scales and dripping to the floor - roaring at them as if it was throwing the gauntlet down for a fight. While the BOW screeched at them, the sound ear piercing and painful, Chris took the opportunity to see what the monster looked like.
And then immediately wished he hadn’t.
-
They might’ve forced him to sign over his freedom. Might’ve forced him to twist and contort until he could no longer stand who he was. But they never prepared him for the agonizing pain that came with fixing the shattered pieces of who he once was. For the pain that came with being loved.

Summary
"Oh, well." Bucky shoves a spoonful of oatmeal into his mouth and makes Steve wait for more information. He swallows, and says, "It's about a man who tries to control the whole world by controlling the weather. Have you expanded your literary horizons at all?"
"You know I hate expanding my horizons." Bucky bobs his head from side to side in exasperated agreement as he eats more oatmeal. Steve says, "Wouldn't the moral of that book have been not to control the weather? Sounds like this guy's the villain."
"Nah." A bit of saliva-laden oatmeal escapes Bucky's bulging-full mouth and lands on the tablecloth. "I think it was ambiguous. Not everything has a moral."

"It's Bucky," Steve added, helplessly. The buyer was now sitting at Mikhailov's table, but the mission seemed unimportant. "He's been arrested. In Texas. And, uh, apparently, we're married."
"Congratulations," Natasha replied, with a small grin. "Are you registered anywhere?"

“I think I’m ready to date again,” Steve said.
“What,” Natasha said.
“What?” Clint said, lowering his binoculars. He blinked at the dumbstruck look on the Captain’s face, then followed his gaze to where he was staring dopily at—at the Winter fucking Soldier.
“Steve, no,” Clint groaned.
Or: Steve courts the Winter Soldier.
