Summary
Shinriki Iroh has not spoken to his family in nine years. Almost a decade since he was forced to leave his niece and nephew with a monster he once called ‘brother’. That all changes with a single phone call.
When Iroh gets a phone call saying that Ozai lost custody of his children, Iroh takes in his nephew, Zuko, whom he hasn't seen in nine years. Iroh tries his best to help the poor boy, but there's only so much he can do. Between Zuko adjusting to a new way of life without pain, Ozai's upcoming trial, a psychotic sister, and Zuko's rapidly declining mental health, it might be more than Zuko can handle.Or...
After years of being in Ozai's abusive home, Uncle Iroh takes in Zuko, and Zuko discovers things about his mental health that will make things change forever.
(NOT ABANDONED. I PLAN TO UPDATE THIS FIC.)

Summary
An AU where the four nations speak different languages:
The plan had been simple...
Step 1. Break the Avatar out of the Pohuai Stronghold.
Step 2. Drag the Avatar back to his ship.
Step 3. Sail home.
Step 4. Present the Avatar to his father and have his honor restored.Nowhere in the plan had Zuko accounted for becoming injured and the Avatar dragging him back to their camp. It certainly hadn't accounted for them taking him prisoner. Nor had it accounted for the added complication of Avatar's companions not having the decency to learn the Common Dialect. Only the Avatar understands him and communication in the group is a tangled mess.
Because when you don't speak the same language, how can you find a Common Ground?

Summary
“I think they made a mistake when I was born. Everybody says I’m a girl but I feel like a boy. We should tell everyone I’m a prince, not a princess. Then they wouldn’t say the wrong things anymore.”
“Zuzu, honey, you mustn’t say things like that.” His mother grabs his shoulder firmly.
“Why not?”
She doesn’t answer for a long time, gazing at the pond before finally turning back to him, the tranquility on her face contrasting with the urgency of her grip.
“It could make people very angry.”
“Like how Father gets angry?”
“...Yes, your father would get very angry.”
“Oh. Okay.”

Summary
"Zuko visited Iroh’s prison cell every night. He would come in, yell at him for a few hours until he had let out all his frustration and, exhausted, leave silently, ashamed.
But that night Zuko walked in quietly."
Or; when Iroh is locked up in the Fire Nation, Zuko walks in one night and accuses him of not being as good of an uncle as they both think he is.

Summary
Zuko starts his day off feeling great! He knows that today will be a wonderful day- or he thinks that. It doesn’t last. He gets news of his fathers death, delivered by Iroh himself. All of his emotions and memories start flooding back to him. He doesn’t know how to feel- how should he feel?
He isn’t sure. All he knows now is that he should keep his head up. He will be okay.

Summary
“Are you the Kaishi Spirit?” her voice cracks and shakes and Zuko feels like she could pass out at any moment. However, the Spirit seems happy.
“That’s one of my names, yes. Humans call me many things, Kaishi Spirit, Ying Yang, Life or Mother Nature.”
Where Zuko hates that part of him, the one he takes after his father, that can burn and destroy everything it touches with just a spark. And if he gets advice from the Spirit that's probably almost as old as the Earth, well, his dad better not be there.
"Fire is also life."

Summary

Summary
He looked to his right and saw that his arm hadn't moved. He willed it to move so that he could prop it underneath himself, but it stayed motionless. He tried flexing his fingers and bending his arm and rotating his shoulder and... everything that his arm was capable of doing the previous day he suddenly couldn't. His arm was entirely paralyzed.

Summary
The first few loops changed Azula and shaped her into a better person. They gave her dear friends that she would cherish in her (apparently very long) life.
The rest of the loops are more wacky. Azula just needs to usurp her father and stop Zuko from getting half his face burned off, then stop her father from razing the Earth Kingdom. Easy peasy.

Summary
Zuko stared up at him with his large, gold eye. “How are you on the Sovereign then? We’re just barely out of Fire Nation Waters, you know.”
It was a perfectly reasonable question, Zuko thought, but the expression on the man’s face switched from constipated to ashy, so he must have said something wrong. “I’m so not doing this right now.” The man muttered before bellowing. “Hakoda! Get your scrawny ass over here and handle this!”
“That’s a naughty word.” Zuko pointed out, squirming uncomfortably in the man’s grip. “Can you please put me down now?” This whole adventure had already managed to go spectacularly sideways.

What if Zuko asked Katara and Sokka with help rescuing Aang from Zhao?
And what if Sokka went with him?
Maybe a conversation will occur (and Aang would be oblivious)
