Academic Excerpts and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being Studied by Scholars Who Make It Their Full Time Job by Vinces
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)
13 Oct 2024
Tags
Summary
Zuko and Aang conspired early to keep the Firelord’s identity as the Blue Spirit a secret. Zuko unmasked would only make his spot on the Dragon Throne more tenuous during a time of upheaval in the post-war Fire Nation.
Nevertheless, the post-war academics are on it. Who was the Blue Spirit?
Aang and Zuko try their best to play it cool.
Aang’s pretty successful…
Zuko? Well, he’s trying his best.
--
Or where two-thirds of the story is historical “articles” set in and referencing the world of Avatar and one third is Zuko (and Aang) navigating a world where there are academic papers speculating about the prison breakout they did together.- Language:

Summary
He’s still tired. He’s been tired all day in a way he normally isn’t, with the weight of the Wardance Festival hanging heavy over his head and his string of losses stretching out infinitely in front of him. If he wasn’t good enough to beat Jingliu, Dan Heng, Blade, Yunli and the borisin—if he lost to all these people—is he truly good enough to represent the Luofu at this tournament where the entire Xianzhou’s eyes are on him? Where he is expected to be the pinnacle of Luofu training, the pride of the Arbiter General?
🗡
or, yunli kidnaps yanqing from training (sort of) and they hash it out (maybe) over some xianzhou luofu street food.

Summary
“If anyone else was here, it'd be chaos.” Yunli mutters, fingers white from how tightly she's holding a makeup brush. “It's a good thing you keep your hair up in a ponytail most of the time — we'd cause an intergalactic war if you went out with your hair down everyday.”
“What is that supposed to mean?”
“It means,” March steps in, “that you are very pretty like this.”
Or: Yanqing loses a bet and Yunli catches feelings.

Summary
He holds out his hand, the matte metal of his palm illuminated in the overhead light. “Tell me something’,” he says, “are you really gonna give that man the satisfaction of breaking you? Or are you gonna help me ransack this place before getting the heck out of dodge?”
The kid stares at him. For a second, Boothill thinks he spots a glimmer of something in those deep-well eyes.
His hand’s nothing but skin and bone, but it barely shakes when it settles in Boothill’s mechanical palm. “Where do we start?” He asks.
AKA Boothill finds Aventurine before Jade does and extends a helping hand.

The Winds May Howl But I Won't Bend by The_Chronic_Cryptid

Summary
“Princess, have you at the very least done a small amount of bending in private since the beginning of this rebellion of yours?” Piandao asked.
“No.” Azula’s answer came colored in disgust and indignation.
“I see, and are you aware that spending prolonged periods of time without utilizing your bending can be damaging?”
“Yes, well so can watching half of your brother’s face being burnt off.”
Watching her brother's Agni Kai broke something in Azula. Completely disillusioned to the idea of being the golden child, Azula goes on strike and refuses to use her bending at all. Ozai ships her to Master Piandao to train her in blades while waiting for her rebellion to burn out. Unfortunately for him and Master Pi, Azula has no intention of bending-her wit and will are as strong and sharp as any blade.

Summary
And Akivili – THEY are selfish. THEY are kinder than most Aeons, THEY walked among THEIR followers and THEY loved them. But THEY are still an Aeon, still selfish. The idea that none of THEIR children remain, that none will appear for a long time, maybe even for centuries – it unnerves THEM. It angers THEM.
So when THEY see this child – this shadow built on the love someone had for THEIR path, a mirror built to reflect one of THEIR children…
Really, how could THEY not save him?
(Or: Misha lives.)

Summary
The Fire Nation's Royal Family was blessed, they had been for centuries. They had the sight. Individual members of the royal family could see into the past or into the future of those they touched. If the gift was powerful enough their eyes would almost glow.
And then Zuko was born. With glowing eyes.
Ozai is ecstatic- until he realizes that Zuko can't see into the future. When he touches people he sees their pasts.
It is usually very hard to hate someone who is entirely human to you. It is hard to hate someone when you understand them as well as you understand yourself.
And Aang is very, very human.

Summary
“I seriously have no idea how Zuko has gotten this good at making tea,” Sokka says, taking a sip of his. He doesn’t even particularly like tea, but Zuko’s is great. Definitely an improvement from the Western Air Temple. They’re in Iroh’s tea shop, because it was there and they had some time to kill.
“Takes after his uncle, I guess,” Toph says, and Ty Lee laughs on the other side of the table. “What’s so funny?”
“Well, you know,” Ty Lee says with another bright little laugh, waving them off.

I wish she knew that her company was worth its weight in the gold that every antiquated tale recounts alchemists driving themselves to ruin to reach for.
Oh.
That every time I write one of these records, usually to compile all the information I gather per her request, I find myself drawn back to one topic consistently: March, March, March.
Oh.
Or, March stumbles upon a hidden section in the Express’s archives, and ends up having to reckon with the elusive secrets revealed about Dan Heng and his stoicism.
