Summary
She calls him at 2AM and doesn’t expect him to answer.
The phone rings exactly three times before there’s the sound of ruffling of bedsheets and the soft groaned cursing of an unknown voice, urging a baby to come back to bed.
Maybe she has the wrong number and this is stupid and of course he’d not keep the same number, she’s so stupid-
“Azula?” Zuko’s gruff voice ask, worried and sleepy and confused and allowing her to take a deep relieved breath as her hands grip the paper in her hands in the dark of Father’s office.
“She’s not dead, Zuzu.”(or the Modern AU where Azula runs away from her abusive father, Zuko is a good brother and Sokka is trying to cope with this sudden ‘Find Mom’ road trip his boyfriend and his boyfriend’s baby sister are getting into).

Summary
“Father sent me to get the Avatar.”
“He already sent me to capture the Avatar, 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘦 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴 𝘢𝘨𝘰.”
“Yes, but the Avatar wasn’t actually around three years ago.” She says slowly, like she’s explaining it to a really dumb child. “Now he is. So Father sent someone competent this time.”
Her brother crosses his arm, like a child.
“Then why are you here, if you’re meant to be out there 𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 the Avatar?”
“That would be because Father sent me to kill you.”
Zuko’s good eye widens. Uncle bodily shoves himself between them, hands ready to fire bend at her. Azula rolls her eyes.
“I’m not going to.”(The Avatar State AU where Azula commits a tiny bit of treason, Zuko becomes one with the righteous sort of rage that leads to patricide and Iroh is not sure if this is the best way to stop the war, but he'll go with it).
