    Summary

    The Calamity is over, and Hyrule is free. But while Link has had months to come to terms with the world he left behind, for Zelda it is only now beginning. As her body heals, she finds it is not just physical recovery she needs. Wracked with guilt that her powers woke too late to stop the calamity and haunted with dreams of Link dying in her arms, she must make peace with all she has lost, before she can find a way to move forward in the world she saved.

    [Post-Calamity. Zelink. Healing, grief, and choosing the life you want.]

    Summary

    “The Princess left me with a handful of words for you, Hero.” Like a bow drawn to tension, his focus snaps back into place. “If you’d like to hear them.” Sheep’s clothing is shed so easily, wool and the soft scent of lanolin left behind when Link steps forward, eyes narrowed. Impa is clearly smart, should already know the answer that builds behind his tongue. “But you need to be willing to risk your life for her before I share them.”

    He almost rolls his eyes.

    Summary

    High Sage Kenji blesses Fire Prince Zuko with the resilience of the reed, who bends in the wind and never breaks. When he is done, Fire Prince Ozai narrows his eyes, seemingly displeased by this blessing. But Kenji does not speak for himself; he is only a vessel. 

    -

    The newly-crowned Fire Lord Ozai offers his firstborn son to service in the temple.

    This turns out to be a catastrophic mistake.

    Summary

    Once, Ty Lee asks her what it’s like to be in love.

    From her lips, the words float like pink smoke and Mai lowers her book just to watch the sun set around her shoulders. “What? I don’t know.”

    “But,” Ty Lee frowns, dropping from her handstand in one long movement, like water flowing in a river, and sits cross-legged with her serious face on. It’s very rare to see her like this, all wide-eyed and furrowed brow, head tilted just a bit to the side as if she’s listening to a song only she knows. “What about Zuko?”

    Mai frowns. What about Zuko? Unnamed dread rises in the pit of her stomach, unnervingly familiar, and she pushes it back into a locked chest just below her sternum, closing the lid tightly to choke the fire. Everyone has a crush on Zuko, she could say, because it’s true, Zuko’s the crown prince and he’s sort of sweet even if he’s a little weird, so Mai figures if she were to like anyone, it would be him, she would like it to be him.

    Instead, she glares. “We’re twelve, we’re not in love.”

    *

    or, after the war, Mai stops an assassination plot, makes friends, and comes to terms with her own sexuality. Not necessarily in that order, though.
