Summary
The Integration Program said, “Learn to cooperate across secondary genders.” Haus 07 heard: “Bond emotionally, break several rules, fall in love, and make absolutely zero responsible decisions.”
Felix wasn’t planning on trusting another alpha—ever again. Keeping his head down, keeping his scent locked under layers of suppressants, that was the plan. Simple. Controlled. Safe. Then he met Hyunjin: too bright, too calm, too alpha for his own good—and somehow the one person Felix’s instincts refuse to flinch from.
No one planned for this. But instincts don’t care about lesson plans.
or Felix said “never again,” and the universe said “try telling that to Hwang Hyunjin.”

Where the Tulips Grow by Evangeline_Douglas

Summary
In the balloon, Zuko hadn't let himself think about what would happen if the Avatar's group turned him away, but the cold reality sinks into his bones like the mountain air, and he trembles where he stands. There's nowhere to go and everywhere to go all at once, and he promised them, promised himself, promised Uncle his repentance for Ba Sing Se. He promised to make it up to Katara.
The only question is how he's supposed to do that without teaching the Avatar firebending.
(Or: Winning a war is hard. Atonement is harder).

Summary
Then they're kneeling together, and Katara is where Mai should be, and there's a silver flame in her topknot that should have been Mai's and a title that should have been Mai's and everyone around her, except her parents, cheers so loudly that her ears ring the rest of the afternoon.
Still, she's been raised better than to speak, to argue, to cry. Her face is smooth as a glass pane as her heart shatters into a million shards.

Summary
Neither Hermione Granger nor Draco Malfoy appreciate being betrayed. It only makes sense to team up for revenge. It doesn’t make sense for them to fall in love.
A fake relationship story, just for fun!

“The Fire Lord proposes a marriage between his son, Crown Prince Zuko, and Princess Katara,” Iroh said, turning to face her.
If she wasn’t already sitting, she would have collapsed given how light headed she was at his words. Her mouth went dry. Her fingers went numb. A marriage? To the Fire Lord’s son?

Summary
Written for the DFW Tropefest 2019 prompt #12 A/B/O
oOo
Late bloomer. That’s what they called her, adding yet another title to follow her other asinine monikers.
With magic as strong as hers how could she possibly be anything else?
What a joke.
oOo
Of course, she took it all in stride; pushed herself harder, striving and struggling to make herself worth more than her lack of Alpha, Beta or Omega designation. But even the abject awe or generalised jealousy she inspired didn’t prevent the surreptitious glances or whispers behind hands about the girl who simply 'wasn’t witch enough.'
