Summary
It's all Aaron's fault.
Really, it is.
He threw away Andrew's ice cream, and left him with no other choice but to walk to the sketchy gas station in the middle of the night. No other choice.
Maybe Andrew should send him a thank you card.
OR
Neil works at a gas station that isn't quite a gas station, and Andrew can't stop coming back for more.

Summary
Neil didn’t mean to steal a car belonging to a local gang, and he certainly didn’t mean to steal the gang’s getaway driver, Kevin Day, along with it.
Unfortunately for Neil, Andrew Minyard doesn’t care why he stole the car (or Kevin), just that he knew how to drive it - and honestly, who made Kevin the getaway driver, anyway?
A Baby Driver AU, but it's so loosely connected that you don't need to know anything about the movie to read.

If the Moon Smiled by aithusahasnowings (foxinsocks)

Summary
Sokka was never sent to guard Yue, he was too busy scouting ahead with some of the Northern Tribe warriors before the Siege. He was catch and capture being taking too Zhao's ship. He barely managed to escape with his life due Aang and a giant sea monster. Now he's stranded in the middle of the ocean with no one except Prince Zuko and his uncle for company.
Sokka should have died, if not from drowning then the burns he received from his time on Zhao's ship. But he survived. Why? Maybe the white streak appearing in his hair may have give him an answer.
Inspired by 'Will We Last the Night' by CSHfic, VSfic but with Moon Spirit Sokka AU
ie: Sokka never makes it out of the North Pole with Aang and Katara. He travels through the Earth Kingdom with Zuko and his Uncle instead.- Language:

Summary
Sokka takes a strategic step back, but he also smiles: triumphant, like he baited Zuko into exactly what he wanted. Like it’s a challenge. It’s the same way he looked when they sized each other up at the prison, with Sokka in chains that left red marks around his wrist, in tattered prison garb, malnourished and angry. Back then, that was Sokka saying: I see your power. I see you. Now, see me.
Zuko saw him then. And he sees him now; different, but the same. I see you.
Zuko lights his daos in flame. Sokka grins, back to gravel and heat. “Come on, Fire Lord. Impress me.”
Zuko burns. His vision flickers with fire. His heart races. His blood sings. His body is like a magnet, pulling ever onward to meet Sokka’s. He advances.
He pins Sokka to the wall, blades against his throat.
Or, Zuko found Aang first, Sokka and Katara were imprisoned in Boiling Rock for trying to rescue their dad, and all Sokka knows is he's pretty sure he's not supposed to think the Fire Lord is attractive but he's never let things like rules stop him before.

Elevator Music (But It's Just Neil Telling Everyone To Shut Up) by P234age

Summary
Neil was just trying to leave the hotel he'd holed himself up in after being released from WITSEC two weeks ago.
Simple, right?
And while he did succeed in leaving the building, he also managed to get stuck in an elevator with the entire Palmetto State exy team, perform emergency triage on half of them, parkour a little, and possibly learned what it means to be free.
Featuring: Chaotic Foxes, Neil being the only competent person in the room, concerning head wounds, and even more concerning blondes who won't stop staring while Neil tries his best not to die in this elevator.
