Summary
"There is something you should know before making a final decision.”
“I’m already aware he’s Russian, sir,” Napoleon said. “And he’s still on good terms with them, so he must at least technically be a Communist.”
Waverly brushed that aside. “All of the Russian agents are. Kuryakin, however, is also an admitted homosexual.”

Summary
“I think they made a mistake when I was born. Everybody says I’m a girl but I feel like a boy. We should tell everyone I’m a prince, not a princess. Then they wouldn’t say the wrong things anymore.”
“Zuzu, honey, you mustn’t say things like that.” His mother grabs his shoulder firmly.
“Why not?”
She doesn’t answer for a long time, gazing at the pond before finally turning back to him, the tranquility on her face contrasting with the urgency of her grip.
“It could make people very angry.”
“Like how Father gets angry?”
“...Yes, your father would get very angry.”
“Oh. Okay.”

Featuring: Zuko’s confused relationship with the concept of freedom, Azula’s confused relationship with the concept of destiny, Aang being painfully helpful, Toph being painfully Toph, Katara being concerned, and Sokka’s crush being visible from outer space.

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

Summary
Lucy Gray was clearly his girl, but somehow, he'd also ended up with Sejanus Plinth as his boy. It was a different situation, of course, but as he held Sejanus in his arms he could feel how true it was. Sejanus held noble ideals and honorable flights of fancy because he was loyal to a fault. A majority of that loyalty was directed directly towards him.
Sejanus was like a planet orbiting around Coriolanus's star and that feeling was one he was loathe to give up.
Ultimately, the way Coriolanus's possessive tendencies end up keeping him from betraying the people he loves most.

Snow's Songbird and Dog by Sapphic_terror

20 Nov 2023

Summary
Years later, after he’s lost count of the dead children bleeding in arenas, after the Capital has forgotten the war they’re avenging. Years later, he’ll think it’s so fitting. Sejanus will curl into silk sheets. Lucy Gray stretched out across from him - the monstrous boy they love in between them. His wife down the hall.
He’ll recall the whispers, the people who once sneered at him who now flinch back. Snow’s songbird, and his loyal dog.
-
Or Lucy Gray and Sejanus Plinth are a little bit more clever, and they know exactly who the boy they love too much is. It saves their lives, but it doesn’t mean this is a kinder story. Just a different sort of tragedy.
