    Summary

    By the cliff, in a far off corner in the Ember Islands, there stands a sprawling manor, its empty hallways leading into empty rooms, wooden floors unwalked for decades, left to gather dust and sand, warmed by the sun and soothed by the moon. It stands as it’s done for centuries before, alone and untouched. Windows opened by storms, salt air filling the negative space left by its owners, unbothered.  

    The tides rise and fall, day after day, and all the while, the Royal Holiday House sleeps, alone and untouched, and thus, it dreams.

    *

    or, a year after the war, Zuko brings everyone back to his beach house in Ember Island. Half a century later, Mako is dragged into exploring a haunted house by the beach.

    Two days, two sets of people. They're still too young for what they had to do.

    Summary

    Chief Arnook had always coddled Yue since her precarious start to life. He tiptoed around her like she was a fragile children’s toy, and if Yue had found it insufferable during her teenage years then she had no idea how bad it would get after that night at the Spirit Oasis. Her father realised that Yue wasn’t as safe as he’d hoped here, that if a single teenage boy could swim into their ranks without conflict, then what was stopping Yue from being hurt again?

    Changes were made, the Kyoshi Warriors were moved to the Northern Water Tribe, and she lost the last bit of freedom she had left.

    Yue thought the Head of the Kyoshi Warriors was rude and invasive. Suki thought the princess was arrogant and stiff.

    And then one day, Yue found a poem on her bed.

    Summary

    “I still can’t believe you’re getting married.” Kugisaki’s sigh sounds crinkly as it filters through her earbuds.

    Across the pond, Itadori spies a couple pushing along a stroller. The early sun glints along the still waters, making her hold up a hand to shield her eyes and wish she’d finally invest in a pair of ugly runner’s shades and be done with it.

    “I mean seriously, like married married. That still sounds weird to say.”

    Summary

    “Fushiguro, check this out!” Megumi turned at the sound of his roommate's voice, Yuji’s phone thrust unceremoniously under his chin. “We’ve got a real life superhero in the neighbourhood!”

    Megumi stared as Yuji’s cracked screen reflected back at him a figure of a man swinging against the backdrop of a familiar street, traipsing through the air with impressive effortlessness and ease. Eyes flicking up, he could see Yuji’s gaze filled with awe and an open mouth. He sighed, scratching the back of his neck thoughtlessly.

    “The spandex looks stupid.”

    OR: 5 times Megumi meets Spiderman and nearly uncovers his identity, +1 time he does. (ft. domestic satosugu intervals bc they deserve love in parallel universes)

    Summary

    All it takes to ruin the careful equilibrium of a non-relationship is a handmade cup, a pixelated screenshot, and Megumi's family.
