Summary
Zuko wasn’t scared of much, he wasn’t. And even if he was, he learned to deal with it a long time ago…
So why did his hands shake so much around the Water Tribe chief?(Or: Zuko suffers from nerve damage from his father’s lightning, and Hakoda notices.)

Summary
"Really, I don't know how you manage it, Zuko. I wanted to bash my head into the table, like, 30 minutes in."
Zuko snorts, "If I did that every time I got the urge, nothing would ever get done around here."
"Still, it's impressive! A few years ago, I wouldn't have thought of you as a patient leader, but you really fit the role, Zuko."
"You think so?"
Sokka grins, "I know so! Trust me, I'd tell you if you were doing horrible."
At that, Zuko laughs, and the sound makes Sokka's heart soar. Back when the war was going on, a laugh from Zuko was unheard of. It was hard to even get him to smile. But now, 3 years after Zuko's coronation, his smiles aren't as few and far between as they once were.
-
Zuko knows he's in love with his best friend. He also knows he can never have him the way his heart wants. He's fine with that, as he keeps telling himself.
Or: 3 years after the war ended, Zuko and Sokka are as close as ever, but both seem to yearn for a little more. One of them just has to realize that their feelings aren't as unrequited as they think.

Summary
A female Zuko story.
In the Fire language, proper nouns don't have a gender. The closest word to Prince or Princess is more appropriately translated as Royal. The person who is next in line to the throne is always called Heir. In the Earth Kingdom and water tribes an heir is always a man. So Heir in Fire is always translated to Crown Prince.
It's not Zuko's fault the idiots can't tell she's a girl.

Zuko accidentally joins the gaang early. How long is it going to take before her real gender is noticed?Series

Summary
“There’s nothing worth falling in love with you.”
The words land like a blade. But Seongje doesn’t flinch either. Another beat of silence. The smile stays, but it’s different now. Less playful. More… feral.
“And Baku does?”
There is something different about Seongje today. Baekjin feels it. He wonders if Seongje even knows what he’s asking for—or if he’s just trying to see who flinches first.
