Summary
A storm forces the Fellowship into a shifty tavern where danger lurks behind drunken smiles and wandering hands. When Legolas becomes the focus of unwelcome attention, Aragorn intervenes - but his fierce protectiveness sparks a painful rift instead of comfort.
As days pass in silence, it’s Frodo’s quiet guidance that rekindles their friendship. But it’s only after the heat of battle, with Gimli wounded and the threat of loss hanging heavy, that Aragorn and Legolas finally speak the truths they've both been avoiding.

Summary
“Rosie Cotton dancing,” Sam said, “and Pippin and Merry stealing the fireworks early. And you-” his voice died in his throat. He could feel Frodo’s eyes on him, but Sam kept his gaze steady on the far-off horizon. Somewhere, he hoped, the armies of Rohan and Gondor and all the kingdoms of men were gathered. He hoped that he and Frodo hadn’t been too late. Sam hoped a lot of useless things.
“Your laughter, Mister Frodo.” Sam’s voice was rough from smoke and the building tears in the back of his throat. He closed his eyes, and tried to remember the sound of Frodo’s laugh. The shape of his smile- how it formed dimples in his cheeks and made his eyes crinkle up into little crescents. It had been so long, the memories felt faint and dreamy, like something Sam had imagined long ago. Once, a lifetime past, Frodo’s smile was Sam’s favorite thing in the widest world. More beautiful than any flower he could grow in the garden, brighter than any of Gandalf’s fireworks cracking open in the sky. “I loved to hear you laugh, sir,” Sam whispered, and he felt a tear trace down his filthy cheek.

Summary
“They’re… chaos,” Remus said firmly. “And chaos is—”
“Rock and roll.”
He looked at Sirius sharply, and for once, matched his grin. “Yeah.”
“Maybe that’s my excuse then,” Sirius said. “I cause a bit of chaos now, and maybe one day, it’ll turn into rock and roll.”After losing his mother at age eleven, Remus has spent the better part of the last four years bouncing from school to school or else running around London and pretending as though he wasn't the kind of well-bred boy his father brought him up to be. Now, with his chances all run out, Remus is sent to Hawkings Independent School as a last-ditch effort to clean up his act. There he meets the very people who will set up the rest of his life, and is forced to confront the pieces of himself he'd long thought had been lost.
(genuinely not apologising for the slow-burn in this fic anymore. You've been warned <3)

Summary
The sun was high and hot and the world had taken on that wonderful film-grain again, the yellows turning golden and the greens turning yellow and everything deep and rich and wonderful, as if they’d all climbed inside Sirius’s old camera and as if they could stay there for as long as they liked, because the world only existed as far as the rocky horizon, and that was plenty big enough for the four of them.
It's a Canadian roadtrip adventure! The perfect summer, apart from the way Remus is doing Sirius's head in, and the way Sirius can't figure out why.

Summary
He remembers when he first heard him, and how he'd been quite unable to do much of anything other than sit there in the stalls in awe as he watched the choir's rehearsal play out, a fourth year pianist accompanying a devastating solo from Remus that had every student and teacher holding their breath. The sheer depth of it; the way it seemed to reverberate through the ancient boards of the very stage itself, from somewhere primal and secret inside him. And how it seemed to take him no effort whatsoever, and how his presence felt no less monumental for it.
A winter term at The Ullswater Institute: late-night rehearsals, dormitory karaoke, and secrets, kept in the labyrinthine corridors underneath the cavernous, frescoed auditorium.

Summary
"He has the eyes, Princess Ursa." They were half-forgotten words, a whisper of fears never explained. Zuko had dismissed it all as nothing to worry about—until he somehow healed the Avatar. Fire healers weren't meant to exist, except he did. He'd saved the kid's life. Naturally, he wanted answers. Too bad finding them wasn't so simple...

Summary
“I’d hate being kept from the sun.” Zuko reaches over her shoulder so his pale hand glows. Moonlight bathes her in silver, cloaking her like a second skin of crushed diamonds. Men of the Fire Nation burn the air around them. Women shimmer like a hot summer day.
He’s never seen anyone sparkle.
“I… I shouldn’t have stolen the moon from you. Tui’s waiting.”
She breathes in. “It’s impossible to steal the moon. But you did steal me.”

My take on the series if Zutara were the series endgame. Feat. canon-divergences, aged-up characters, mature themes, pining and Two Idiots in Love.

Summary
Making choices after the war was supposed to be the easy part. Her future decided and neatly packaged based on what everyone else wanted for her, what she should want, too.
But Katara’s destiny had a funny way of being exactly what she wanted to run from.
(As if anyone needed another Zutara post-finale slow burn after 15 years.)

Summary
“Roads were made for journeys, not destinations.” ― Confucius
One moment changes the course of history. Katara and Zuko are imprisoned by the Fire Nation Army during the Day of Black Sun, and when they escape, they find themselves adrift in the Fire Nation with no one to rely on but each other. With only six weeks before Sozin’s Comet arrives and four nations to cross, the pair must track down Katara’s allies, save the world—and learn to trust each other.
Canon divergent from Part 2 of 'Day of Black Sun.'
