Summary
“You okay, dude? You look like you’re barely hanging on.”
The son of the tyrannical and power-hungry Ozai, dejected prince of the yokai, shrugs and speaks. His voice comes out rusty, like it hasn’t been used in a while. “I’ve been better.”
Sokka hums sympathetically, ignoring the rational part of him (which sounds suspiciously like Katara) that’s yelling at him to get the fuck out of there. “I can relate. Wanna talk about it? This table has two seats, after all.”
The Yokai Prince’s bleary gaze shoots back up to meet Sokka’s warily. “I don’t want to waste your time.”
Sokka shrugs with a wry grin. “We’ve both got a lot of that, don’t we?”
OR: a ‘when the day met the night’ songfic

Summary
Zuko’s jolted out of the world of SCP - Containment Breach when the sofa dips next to his leg. Then there’s a heavy weight on his body as he pauses the game and lifts his head up to find the top of Sokka’s head in his face.
“You okay?” he asks, bemused.
Sokka’s hand comes up to flap around vaguely. “M’tired ‘n wanna hug,” he mumbles into Zuko’s chest.

Summary
Zuko wakes up to find the sky pink and orange - a far cry from the brilliant blue it had been. He makes a questioning grumbling sound, and Sokka turns his head to smile down at him.
“It’s a nice sunset,” Sokka comments.
“Yeah. Pretty,” Zuko responds, though his adoring gaze is fixed firmly on Sokka.

Summary
Sokka hadn’t noticed how lonely he was until they stopped in Ba Sing Se.
Toph makes him go to a tea house to stop his moping.
He starts to feel better on the way there, but his mood comes crashing down quick when he finds none other than Zuko - banished Fire Prince and the guy who has been chasing Team Avatar across the fucking globe ever since Sokka’s left the Southern Water Tribe - standing behind the counter in an ivory and green apron, having the Spirits-damned audacity to make it look good.
OR: s2e13 (city of walls and secrets) if sokka had been in the jasmine dragon when jet barged in and accused zuko and iroh of being firebenders

“Tattoos are stigmatized to the point where you can’t use public baths if you’re tattooed-”
Sokka interrupted to finish Zuko’s sentence, a grin growing. “-And because your ancestors were super stuffy, old-fashioned people, they’d absolutely despise you getting a tattoo!”
A matching smile started taking over Zuko’s face. “Yeah, basically.”
Sokka nodded sagely. “Fuck the father lord.”

Summary
“Sokka,” says Zuko, hoping that his voice hasn’t gone flatly defensive like it does when he exposes himself even though he has nothing to fear.
“Hm?” Sokka looks up from his computer, hair a mess from where he’s been running his hands through it. Zuko wants to take it out from the ponytail and redo it, but he makes himself focus on what he has in his hands.
OR: zuko can’t use words so he uses roses to get his feelings across instead

“Yes!” Sokka yells when his blue shell hits Aang’s car. “Take that, Yoshi!”
Aang wails when Sokka’s Waluigi zooms by, overtaking him easily. “That was the closest I’ve ever been to coming in first!”
Sokka blows a raspberry in response, then stops abruptly when Katara passes by him. “Fucker!”
Katara laughs as ‘7/7’ flashes across her screen. “Last lap! See if you can keep up!”

Summary
Zuko rides his stolen ostrich horse into a sorry excuse of a town, one that looks like it’s made of dust and dried out wood. Fire hazard, he thinks blearily as he rides through it.
There’s a group of men gambling in the shade, and as Zuko makes his way to a store across from them, he locks eyes with one of them. He seems to be the leader, eyes narrowed as he stares at the newcomer. Assesses him.
Ignoring the hair at the back of his neck standing up, Zuko stares back steadily, knowing that his scar makes him seem like he’s scowling back. He breaks eye contact in favor of speaking with the person at the counter of the store. (Never let your guard down.)
OR: zuko alone, paired with the song ‘killer in the mirror’
