Summary
Zuko had never excelled at anything. Azula was a prodigy. Uncle always knew what to say. And Father... Father was strong, iron-like. But Zuko had only ever been good at surviving. Putting one foot in front of the other in a grim show of stubborn determination, gritting his teeth and bearing it. Survival was all he had ever been taught. He knew how to do it. So when he was kidnapped by the Southern Water Tribe, he expected to fight as he always had. He didn’t expect to be taught instead how to live.
In a warring land, the Water Tribe forgave the enemy in an act of defiance. For this, he was torn from them, and this time, his wounds won't heal so easily.
Forced back into nothing but survival, the last person Zuko expected to see was Hakoda's son. Hakoda was a promise of safety. The relentless blue of Sokka’s eyes was a promise of happiness. Zuko could have both if he just reached out his hands, but he found them clutching into fists. After all, he’d been burned one too many times.
But hey, at least between Hakoda and Sokka, Zuko could appreciate the family resemblance of pure, asinine stubbornness.

Summary
Just as the crowd clears a large space in front of the gates, a flashy, neon green car comes flying off a neighboring roof and over the gate, landing on a guard building and driving down it like a ramp. The tires squeal as it speeds to a stop in front of them and the (illegally) tinted window rolls down on the passenger side, revealing Seungmin's unbothered face. A boy with soft cheeks and a gummy grin pops out from behind Seungmin, the driver's side, and waves.
"Three seconds early, Channie Hyung. You owe me five bucks" the boy says as the rest of the group piles into the car, Hyunjin happily planting himself on Chan's lap.
"Awe, baby's first prison break.That's great, buddy. Now go" Chan snaps.
