Summary
The Avatar is gone.
Katara was taken by the Southern Raids at only 14 years old and brought to the Fire Nation capital, where she was forced to become a sex worker in the capital's Red Houses.
At 17, she's sold to the top House: The Red Flame, where girls serve only the elite, including Royalty.
Growing up in this world, Katara has learned to keep her head down and do what's needed to survive.
That is, until two years later, when she is 19 and meets the recently un-banished Fire Prince, notorious for his short temper and closed-off nature.
See how their worlds collide in the most unexpected ways. -

Summary
Zuko took the lightning, and he almost paid the ultimate price.
If not for the amazing Waterbending master, who refuses to leave his side while he recovers.
The two support each other through all new trials and battles of a different nature. Some fights take a harder toll than others.
They find time to learn how to love, and figure out who they are outside of the war... all while navigating assassination attempts and threats from Ozai's supporters, and the consequences of the former fire lord still being alive.
(Formerly titled "Never Like This")

The Aftermath of that Awful Play by Makoto_flower

Summary
What if Katara actually told her friends about Aang kissing her?
Flames curled around the firepit, illuminating everyone's faces, dancing lines across their skin. Silence was in the air, the crackling from the burning embers almost echoed against the house behind them.
Katara was conflicted, glaring into the flames. Not only did the play highlight her in the worst way possible, target all of her insecurities at once, but it also caused the most uncomfortably awkward moment between her and Aang. Said boy now sat across from her, his grey eyes burning into her skin. She pretended not to notice, her gaze permanently glued to the flames.
(My take on The Boy in the Iceberg!)

For Want of a Space Rock by HomeAgainRose

Summary
Sokka returns to the camp to get the space rock for a wicked sword only to walk into the middle of something he's seen brewing for ages.
It's probably a good thing Aang is a little oblivious. He's still not telling Dad.
Zuko goes with Katara under the catacombs and the ripples show.

Summary
He doesn’t know who moves first, only that Katara’s lips are incredibly soft, her mouth warm and open, her touch completely electric on his skin, and Zuko can’t stop the soft sigh that escapes him as they part.
It’s perfect. It’s just as perfect as he’d always imagined it would be, and the fact is that he’s imagined it more often than he’d ever be able to admit.
~The tension between Zuko and Katara has been building for years. This is how it breaks.

Bookmarker's Notes
zutara isn't endgame, but there's good smut, and it kinda implies they're in love with each other but won't act on it

Summary
Braids and knots are a way of life in the Water Tribes. They use them to make cordage, nets, and traps, but they also use them in their art—and in their hair. Katara knows braids, and using her skill sets to help others is what she does. It’s who she is.
Which totally explains why she is currently sitting on her hands as she watches Zuko try to hold a council meeting with his hair in his eyes.
It's because she's a good friend who wants to use her skills to help out, and not because she's been itching to sink her fingers into Zuko's gorgeous Fire Nation hair for weeks... right?
