Summary
Lin remembers another life, another war, another world. Reborn in fire and steel, she serves the Fire Nation with unyielding loyalty. When assigned to mentor the young princess Azula, she becomes the only flame Azula cannot master. And somewhere between admiration, rivalry and care, between ashes and fire, lies a hunger that could consume them both.
Starts at 96AG, almost four years before the return of the Avatar.

Summary
“My name is kind of weird, too, you know.” The other girl sat down in the grass beside her. It was reflex that Deki turned away slightly to shield her ink painting, but the other girl didn’t seem to notice.
“It’s supposed to be Peśa, like from the sacred language, but everyone just calls me Pesha because the adults say it flows more with the dialect.”
“Oh.” Deki didn’t know how to answer that. She always corrected the adults when they said ‘Diki.’“So, I just thought I’d tell you, if you want to be friends.”
It was there so briefly. Deki didn’t know what the feeling was. Warm and so unfamiliar, and she took a good second to look at the other girl as she picked at the grass. Warm, unfamiliar and— she’d imagine this was what others felt when they came home to someone and ate dinner together. Something like home. But just as quickly, she shut it away behind something high and unbreakable. Because Deki knew.
No.
No, people don’t like me here.

Summary
It is no secret how quickly Princess Azula goes through handmaids. And so when Suyin takes up the position after the previous handmaid left the palace in tears, she doesn't expect her employment to be a particularly long one. But warmth and friendship soon take root in the cracks of the princess' facade, piercing through a loneliness she hadn't even realised existed.
Mostly canon compliant, but with fluctuations to and from canon, side plots, and divergent character motivations. Significant canon divergence post Book 3 of ATLA (not yet published). This fic serves as a character study for Azula, and explores daily life in the Fire Nation beginning before her introduction in the show.
Loosely inspired by Fingersmith / The Handmaiden

Summary
Lillith Vasilis was born cursed — the kind of beauty that ruins lives, the kind of magic that bends hearts until they break. The last heir to an old, haunted bloodline, she’s spent her life mastering control: of her emotions, her power, and the way people look at her. But when Voldemort rises again and Hogwarts becomes a battlefield of secrets, control is the first thing to shatter.
Harry Potter has always been defined by prophecy and war. Lillith by legacy and silence. He burns, she freezes — yet somehow, they find each other in the in-between, where belief turns to doubt and loyalty begins to bleed.
As the Order fractures and the Ministry falls, Lillith’s curse grows stronger — her empathy turning into madness, her power into temptation. To fight for the light, she’ll have to decide if she can bear to touch the darkness inside her. . . and if Harry can love someone who was never meant to be saved.

Summary
Huntrix did it. The Golden Honmoon has been sealed, and demons are gone from the world forever. So, why haven’t Rumi’s patterns disappeared? Rumi becomes lost when the one thing she’s sacrificed so much to achieve doesn’t work out, only to run into a new kind of demon who turns her whole world upside down.
OR
What would have happened if the Golden Honmoon had happened as originally planned, but it didn't "fix" Rumi?
