Zuko and His No Good Very Stressful Identity Fraud

Summary:

Some days, things just don’t work out so well. Sometimes, you have a day that includes being chased by your father’s army, punching a man so hard that you break a finger, and having to come clean to your crush about a past you’ve been trying your best to run away from.

A short comic done for the Zukka 18+ Chaos Server’s exchange! The prompt was: Iroh was not present for Zuko's Agni Kai! AU. The gaang meet a scarred teen with unresolved feelings about the Fire Nation and Honor who's been half-adopted by the Kiyoshi warriors. Pursued by Zhao and several old men trying very hard to get Zuko to sit down for a game of Pai Sho, the Gaang travel to the North Pole. Once the presence of the Avatar and his companion-trying-really-hard-to-go-by-Lee are confirmed, Ozai's heir is charged with bringing home both the Avatar and the Traitor. Exeunt, pursued by Azula.

Notes:

Y’all, this was so so so much fun to work on. NaoNazo gave me a prompt that absolutely grabbed hold of me, and... am I already halfway plotting out an actual fic to write for it as well? Perhaps... I just cannot get enough of this concept, and I hope my mini comic did it justice at least a little!
