In which Princess Xian of the Fire Nation leaves a wake of King’s in her path.
A clever mind with a sharp tongue touches power for the first time: and she loses a little bit of herself in the process.

Summary
After a semester of online classes while recovering from an injury that left him with a facial scar and eye damage, Zuko starts his first semester at Ba Sing Se University. In his first class, he meets Sokka, who recruits him for an on-campus theatre club. This story follows Zuko as he prepares for the show at the end of the semester, while adjusting to his new life away from Ozai, dealing with ghosts of his past, and navigating new situations (like an ableist professor, an infinite number of group chats, his first real extracurricular activity, a possible love triangle, and the first election cycle in which he will be old enough to vote against his father) with the support of his uncle and his new friends.

Summary
The events at Crescent Moon Island during the Winter Solstice turn out a little differently. As the volcano erupts thanks to Roku's wrath, chaos consumes the temple, and Sokka tries to save their new ally Shyu, but ends up trapped and collapsing from exhaustion and heat. Drifting between life and death, he dreams of home, playing childhood games with Katara and hearing his mother’s voice, before the dream twists into darkness.
When he wakes, it’s to the face of his supposed enemy: Prince Zuko.
Stranded together on a failing Fire Nation skiff, they’re forced into an uneasy alliance that tests every instinct and belief they’ve ever held.
Just how will Sokka navigate all the obstacles and hardships life throws at him? How much will he have to endure before he runites with Katara?
This series is my love letter to the Avatar: The Last Airbender series. I fell in love with it when it was released back in 2005, and loved it ever since. I intend to rewrite all 3 books of the series with a darker and more mature twist, so join me on this Canon Divergence rewrite!

Spirit touched is overrated by That_One_Writer49999

22 Nov 2025
Tags
Summary
“Sooooo, now that you’re here does this mean you’ll teach me firebending?”
“YOU KIDNAPPED ME!!!!!”
Or: Instead of capturing the avatar spirit touched Zuko says fuck you and runs off to become the blue spirt, perfect content with spending his days sabotaging the fire nation
Until the Gaang kidnaps him to become Aang’s firebending teacher, of course
Rated teen for swearing

Summary
Aang isn’t the Avatar. But… he used to be…
But water doesn’t call to him, not in the way he knows it’s supposed to. And then, he is saved from Pohuai Stronghold by… an airbender?!
This masked guy that saved him, rescuing him with two swords and a small bout of accidental airbending… is the Avatar. Not Aang. Not… not anymore.
And he’s looking for a Master to teach him air.
(Zuko is the Avatar. But… he wasn’t always…) -

Summary
Rubbing his hands over his face, Aang fell against Appa to take comfort in his fluff. “And it’s been a hundred years? That’s- I can’t believe- Wait, then why have you been looking for me, uh, for the Avatar?”
This was a pivotal moment and it needed to be handled with finesse, care, and the truth if there was any hope of Aang agreeing to work with him. Yes, Zuko could do this.
Aang wakes up from the ice and the story starts as we all know it. But instead of a Fire Nation cruiser crashing into Katara and Sokka's village, a small sailing boat lands on their shore. How will Hui the Yangchen Scholar change the coming events?

Summary
Listen. Sokka definitely thought the ponytail was ugly. He’s known that since the moment he saw it emerge from underneath one of the Fire Navy’s tacky, skull-shaped helmets. It’s one of the easiest things to make fun of about Zuko; despite all his shouty, fire-breathey, possible-intent-to-murdery glory, he somehow has the goofiest, jankiest, least intimidating haircut Sokka has ever seen.
But he never thought, not in a million years--
Or,
The stupid ponytail meets its maker. This has...unforeseen consequences.

Summary
In one perfect moment Azula had achieved everything she had ever wanted. She had taken Ba Sing Se, ended the Hundred Year War, killed the Avatar, and convinced Zuko to return home to take his place as their father's heir.
Now, she had finally proven herself to be more than her mistakes, more than the weakness that her father had always been able to see at the core of her. Now, her father would finally have to respect and reward her, now she could finally have Ty Lee.
And in an instant, it had all come crashing down. Zhao had come back from the dead and, acting on her father's orders, stripped her of her command. Ty Lee's mother had stolen her away to secure a marriage to a man she hardly knew, and worse yet, Ty Lee had gone willingly, no longer able to bear seeing the person Azula had become.
Both heartbroken and distraught Azula and Ty Lee must now return home to the Fire Nation to face their destinies...but destiny has a way of turning out in unexpected ways.
Or
The final part of my very long TyZula redemption arch series.

Summary
"So you take the knife to the wall instead. You carve and carve until a coin of light appears and you get to look in, at last, on happiness. The eye staring back from the other side—waiting." — Ocean Vuong, Torso of Air
***

Summary
The gaang are all famous actors starring in the new and upcoming show "Avatar the last airbender"! Zuko and Sokka are oblivious idiots crushing on each other and Katara and Aang aren't much better. Toph is a fighter, not an actor she just has to convince everyone else that.
