    Summary

    This wasn't the first time someone had discovered their bending abilities didn't align with their origins. Love always found a way after all and genes could often stay dormant. The Spirits loved to play a joke on humans and reveal generational secrets at the worst times possible.

    The gaang has finally made it to Ba Sing Se. Unfortunately speaking to the King proved much more difficult than they had anticipated. Meanwhile they have to deal with finding Appa, the city's strange atmosphere and the feeling of being watched, and Sokka's newly found bender problem.

    Meanwhile Zuko is handed the perfect opportunity to get his ticket home by helping out a certain bender.

    Huge thank you to my friend AshiaFH for the idea and letting my mind run wild with it.

    Summary

    “I can’t stand you,” Zuko says with earnest annoyance.

    “I can’t stand you either,” Sokka says. It sounds a whole lot like I love you. “Come on, you poor, sad baby, let’s go to bed.”

    Or: Sokka has been running from his broken heart for years, but when his father calls and tells him to come home, he packs his car and starts the long drive across the country to the mess of a life he left behind. The last thing he expects is to break down a day into his impulsive road trip—or for his unexpected savior to be the boy he broke up with in his final year of college.

    Zuko is different than Sokka remembers. Quiet and angry and filled with a grief he refuses to talk about. As the two travel back to the place where their story first started, they begin unpacking the wounds they left on each other when they were young. But as their feelings rekindle, they’ll both have to confront the reality of what it means to try again, and whether they’re brave enough to trust each other twice.

    Summary

    After the events of War Crimes, Sokka and Zuko have escaped Zhao’s warship and are fleeing across the Earth Kingdom. As well as unfamiliar terrain, they have to navigate their shared trauma, work out where they fit into the war, and their place in each others lives.

    Sokka is aware that being friends with the enemy is going to bring complications, but he probably should have guessed that being friends with Zuko in particular, was going to be a bit like dunking your head repeatedly into a bucket of angry Fire Ferrets.

    Katara is also grappling with the confusion of befriending an enemy, something that doesn’t prove as difficult as she had expected with the bond of shared, furious grief bridging old wounds. (Learning a new way to look at her bending doesn't hurt either)

    Azula, struggling with the Fire Lord’s mistrust, encounters a few nasty surprises and has to make some difficult decisions. Luckily, she is a great deal better at making sensible choices than her brother.

    Her father may have made a slight tactical error.

    Summary

    Sokka laid on his bed and stared at the ceiling and clutched his phone to his chest and couldn’t stop grinning.

    He whispered the word astounding to the ceiling, and the ceiling said nothing back.

    He wished he could make the word sound the same as it had when Zuko had said it.

    You are astounding.

    He felt like a middle school girl with a crush.

    Fuck it. May as well lean into the character. Sokka flipped onto his stomach, kicked his feet up, and screamed into a pillow.

    Sokka pulled his head out of the pillow, opened his phone, and Merriam-Webstered astounding. He knew what it meant, but he needed to inject it into his very bloodstream. He had to get linguistic with that shit. 

    Or:

    Two idiots fall in love and yearn.

    Summary

    Zuko had the scrawny prison guard over and on his back in an instant. His fist curled above his head, igniting itself in flames as he landed on top of him, lips pulled back in a scowl. "Not this time, you piece of shit."

    "Wait! wait wait wait! Stop! It's me!" The guard heaved. Dark tan hands peeled off the helmet. Beneath it was an impossible face; one he remembered had clasped his hands ten months ago. Zuko's breath sucked in, fast and dry.

    "Yeah," Sokka huffed, a soft smile slowly curling onto his lips. "You're okay now. It's just me."

    Or

    Where Zuko is banished without Iroh or the task of searching for the Avatar for his honor, gets himself a bounty on his head, and has to be saved from Boiling Rock Prison by an annoying Southern Water Tribe warrior that makes him feel really weird.
