Summary
“Ready?” Nezha laces their fingers with a startlingly familiar tenderness. His expression doesn’t betray the contempt and unfamiliarity of the last five years, only the spitting image of the face she loved in Sinegard, all those summers ago.
Rin wants to run. They shouldn’t be doing this. How the fuck is he doing this? How could he reach for Old Nezha, her Nezha, so easily, as if he’d just been there this entire time and never left—as if she had never left?
“Just fucking get this over with,” Rin grits out.
His smile is beautiful and open, the way it was in her memories and worst nightmares.
“Good,” he says, more to the guests honed in on their conversation than to her. “Then it’s about time everyone met my beautiful, brilliant girlfriend.”
Five years after the fact, Rin reprises the role of Nezha’s girlfriend for his sister’s wedding.

Summary
He comes at night, on the eve of a storm that will last for seven years. She cannot know it then; only when the veil of perpetual blizzard seals the south from the rest of the world and she is a sea away in the belly of the empire will Katara understand her fate.
“I need your help.”

Summary
Zuko has not known real peace since the day he faced his sister in their Agni Kai many years ago. No matter how many times he tried to bury it, his feelings for Katara refused to fade. At every shared meal, every sparring match, every return to the Fire Palace, he found himself hoping — just once — that her eyes would meet his and reignite the spark that had flared the moment he took Azula’s lightning for her... but they never did.
Her gaze always found Aang instead, and, in time, Zuko taught himself to look away — for their sake, for the fragile balance of their friendship. The Avatar and the healer, bound together as if by fate.
But when Katara comes to the Fire Nation during a quiet break from Aang, the Fire Lord begins to notice something he hadn’t allowed himself to see before. Whenever he looked away…
She always looked back.
(Set ~10 years after the War, Post-Canon)
