Summary
After the fateful Agni Kai, instead of sending him off on a ship, Fire Lord Ozai decided to remove his son's title and relegate him to being part of the Palace staff.
Zuko's pretty sure he's going to go back to being Crown Prince any day now.
Just a few more days.
And then the Avatar and his companions are captured.

High Sage Kenji blesses Fire Prince Zuko with the resilience of the reed, who bends in the wind and never breaks. When he is done, Fire Prince Ozai narrows his eyes, seemingly displeased by this blessing. But Kenji does not speak for himself; he is only a vessel.

The newly-crowned Fire Lord Ozai offers his firstborn son to service in the temple.
This turns out to be a catastrophic mistake.

Summary
Azula, former Princess of the Fire Nation, left the Palace three years ago in order to build up an alliance and take her father down, once and for all. But the world is changing - the Avatar's arrival is both a blessing and a curse, and with him comes a risk she might not be willing to take. Meanwhile, in a Nation more fragmented than ever, Zuko will do everything to cut off his weakness and folllow Ozai's orders - but he doesn't know if he can kill Azula.
---
“It’s always a pleasure to watch destiny unfold."
Azula sighed, “Destiny will not win a war, Uncle. This is the result of all out hard work.”
“Ah, but just as we cannot control the skies and seas, sometimes we cannot control the path our lives take.”
“Tell me, Uncle. Do the tides control the ship, or do I?”
Uncle laughed, “Point made. Lead on, my niece, but be wary of incoming storms.”
For a moment, the world was still, and something tense settled on her shoulders. But she shook it off.
She had the Avatar, and soon she’d have the North.

Summary
Zuko was not a good shifter.
Azula could switch between her wolf and human skins between steps. Not Zuko, he needed several minutes before he even started the shift, and that was on a good day. If it had been Azula who Animal Control found in that alley, they would have walked away convinced that their eyes had played a trick on them. There had never been a dog there.
But Zuko's long transformation would have only revealed his kind to the world. Father may think he has no honor, but he wouldn't stoop so low as that. Even if that meant being dumped in animal shelter, trapped as much by the 24/7 security cameras as by the cage bars.
He had the worst luck.
-
"Come on guys!" Aang said as he lead his friends through the clamoring barks of the shelter. "I want to show you my favorite dog! He's a sweetheart."
Aang lead the pair to where a monstrous beast of a dog was growling with raspy barks loud enough to drown out the rest of the shelter. His bright white teeth contrasted against golden eyes and a bright red scar that stretched over the side of his face as he lunged against the cage door.
Sokka laughed nervously. "Did the word 'sweetheart' change meaning when I wasn't looking?" -

Summary
Izuku went through a lot of phases as a kid. Dinosaurs. Quantum physics. Pre-quirk ducks. Being a hero (though that one stuck). And that, combined with an active imagination and few friends had left him with more than a few fond memories of playing pretend during the summer he spent with his father while his mother gained her Villain Response Team certificate.
At five, he’d been so lonely that he’d concocted an imaginary quirk that let him create fog and even clouds when the hot sun became too oppressive at Dad's summer estate. Sue him, he’d had a meteorology phase too.
At twelve, he could explain the longing that defined his childhood fantasies.
At thirteen, he desperately clung to the words his Father whispered into his ears that summer before he had become too busy for his quirkless son.
But at fourteen, when he awoke panting with One For All crackling at his fingertips, he could not explain the low hanging fog, no clouds, that covered his bedroom.

Summary
When Midoriya Izuku's life starts to go to hell he retreats online, picking up video games as a hobby beyond his hero worship. He starts a HeroTube channel to hopefully raise his confidence, not expecting for it to explode into a career opportunity after he finds a game he's incredibly good at. Despite this, he still wants to be a hero, to save people like All Might, and he's willing to fight to make it possible. Leveraging his power as a HeroTuber, he attempts to make it into the world of heroics, fighting using his intelligence and battle sense honed through hours of becoming a top player in an incredibly competitive game. Conspiracies will be uncovered and trust gained through the universal language of games... and yelling at your teammates. He will become a hero, he will help everyone, and he will do it despite being quirkless.

Summary
"You will die alone, little wind wisp." Anastacius croons, the words laced with glee at his assured victory. "No one's coming."
Desperation unfurls in Barbatos's chest at the words; he is meant to keep his children safe, let them be free, and he refuses to let them suffer at the hands of yet another tyrannical god.
In the early days of Barbatos’ newfound godhood, he made Mondstadt into a home, became friends with his neighbouring god, Morax, and mourned a dead boy.
Somewhere between this, a god challenges the Anemo Archon for his lands.

Summary
Edward thought he was dealing with enough in Amestris - trying to get his brother's body back, dealing with annoying mechanics, and, oh yeah, stopping the impending genocide of the people he was sworn to protect. In an attempt to deter Edward's meddling, King Bradley has found a perfect assignment for him, far away from Central.
Like, really far.
Thankfully, he has a familiar face with him. One that can (hopefully) help him stop the Homunculi from getting their hands on a new weapon. Helping protect the school they were contracted by would be a plus as well.
