Summary
Camila sits down on the couch and grabs disinfectant, beckoning her over. Luz plops down next to her.
“Close your eyes,” Camila says, and passes a soaked pad over her face. Luz winces, but doesn’t move. She has a little nick through her eyebrow, now. Camila smooths band-aids over the cuts, hesitates, and pulls Luz to her chest.
“I’m so happy you’re safe,” she whispers. Luz wraps her arms around her too. “Trust me, so am I,” she laughs, a little wetly.

Summary
Sokka looked around the throne room with interest. “I always wondered what the world was like from up here - must be nice looking out at your adoring subjects.”
“Being the Fire Lord is pretty dull,” Zuko said glumly, "unless you enjoy hearing people bicker about taxes. After a while, thwarting the occasional assassination is basically a form of stress relief."
In which Fire Lord Zuko and Ambassador Sokka get drunk, go fishing, watch theatre, uncover a conspiracy, visit a teahouse, destroy a historical monument, and reckon with the painful legacy of the past – but not necessarily in that order. [PODFIC AVAILABLE]

Summary
Sokka's expression is caught somewhere between determined and pissed off when he says, “I know you think this is your responsibility. But you’re not going to be alone in this. This is why we’re building you a council.”
“I know,” Zuko says.
“And the only way you’re going to die having done nothing but sit in meetings is if you let yourself do that. You’re not a bad leader if you take a break now and then.”
Zuko scowls. “What, so people can then say at least my father wasn’t lazy?”
Sokka tilts his head. “Don’t you think there’s a difference between laziness and, I don’t know, choosing life and happiness in spite of a terrible dad who tried to take both from you?”
----------
Zuko is sixteen years old when he’s handed a crown, a throne, and a hundred-year ancestral legacy of colonial imperialism. He’s not scared of the work; he’s scared of being consumed by the responsibilities and burdens he’s claimed. What Zuko doesn’t quite realize, yet, is that he’s not alone in this.

really well written political fire nation post canon, with a side of zukos personal relationships and how that intersects with his role as fire lord, and a really well done and softly written slow discovery of liking men as well as women

The Snow Festival, though, was an idea he had liked, an idea he had thought they could all be proud of. It would be emblematic of what Snowchester was; a town of snow, yes, but also a place of community, family, and peace.
Snowchester celebrates a yearly festival. Tubbo, along with his town, celebrate, live, and reflect.

WONDERFUL fic of michael learning about his father (and his dad) ten years after ranboo's death. featuring really thorough and thoughtful portrayals of grief + ranboo's novelty ties + tubbo finally wearing ranboo's gifted jewelry for him after ten years of not processing his emotions well (sooo ctubbo).

Harry Herm Ron play dnd with Tom Riddle as dm. Tom has planned a long con where Lord Voldemort comes around and kills them; Harry instead rolls and succeeds at making his character seduce the snake monster that is LV and then makes out with abandon. Tom is horrified, Hermione is supportive, and Ron is vaguely grossed out by Harry's character being a scalie.

Summary
Now that Harry is back at Hogwarts with Hermione for eighth year, he realises that something’s missing from his life, and it either has to do with Ron, his boggart, Snape, or Malfoy. Furthermore, what, exactly, does it mean when one’s life is defined by the desire to simultaneously impress and annoy a portrait? Harry has no idea; he’s too busy trying not to be in love with Malfoy to care.
