    Summary

    There’s a small silence, before Sokka - naturally - interrupts it.

    “I didn’t think the Fire Nation had rights for prisoners of war.”

    “Well… yeah,” the Prince says, as if it’s the most obvious thing in the world. “If we didn’t, my father would probably just execute everyone.”

    “...Well, that’s lovely,” Bato says.

    -----

    The invasion goes a little differently than Sokka would have hoped: namely, he's sitting in a cell with the Prince of the Fire Nation, his hands are chained behind his back, and his shoulder is probably dislocated.

    Oh, and it seems the universe hates him, because his dad can't even give him a proper hug. So yeah. He's doing great.

    Summary

    The man’s voice once again broke him from his thoughts; “In my dreams I see them tortured by Fire Nation soldiers. I see my entire culture wiped from the South, our footprint upon the ice shelves gone as though we never existed, our connection with the spirits and our ancestors forgotten.” He was silent for the briefest of moments, then, “You’re Fire Nation, aren’t you?”

    Zuko rolled onto his side, facing the wall, scar pressed into the arm that cushioned his head. “Once, maybe.”

    “Answer me this, then; when will this war see it's end?”

    Zuko, recalling the fire that had burned in Azula’s sunlit gaze the day she’d caught up to him, chose not to respond.
