    Summary

    Zuko formed a bond with an Earth Kingdom Colonel and trusted him enough to turn himself into their custody without putting up a fight. The deal he's offered is a lenient form of imprisonment with more freedom than he'd hoped for. But his only ally is sent on a mission and Zuko has to navigate the new, hostile reality on his own.

    Or…
    a) Zuko the Ultimate Prisoner… A product of my unhealthy liking for prisoner trope, all rules and power imbalance that comes with that. There’s a father figure that Zuko deserves and *fanfare* a cousin figure that Zuko also deserves.
    b) It’s basically a spinoff of a part of my main fic in which the gaang hadn’t appeared in the town and Zuko went with Huong

    Summary

    Katara sits on her throne, draped in fire nation red and gold with hints of her beloved water tribe blue as her council members argue about the issue of the week. She turns to look at Zuko who’s equally well dressed and looks equally done with the situation and the exact same thought passes between them “we should’ve ran away when they had the chance.”

    or: Katara wins the last Agni Kai on a technicality and now she’s ruling a nation, Zuko’s nation, to be specific. Life never did like making things easy for them.

    Summary

    He turns back to Toph, who is looking completely nonplussed. “But no, Toph-” Her previous words filter through all at once and he suddenly has very different questions. “Wait, you were looking for me? Is everything okay?" 

    She sighs and takes a seat in the half removed empty chair beside him after checking its place with a kick and her hand on the back of it, laying her white stick across her lap, as she sits down heavily with a huff. "You'd know if you checked your fucking phone, dumbass. Sokka said he couldn't get hold of you but he couldn't escape class for another couple hours so he sent me to make sure you hadn't killed yourself with studying."

     

    Or Toph and Zuko bond over the stress of chasing what you want when their parents don't respect them or their choices.

    Summary

    Zuko had been enjoying his retirement.
    He had lead a war torn nation to peace, married the love of his life, had two wonderful children (thanks Mai for the help), and was perfectly content to let Izumi take the throne while he got to relax with his husband.
    The universe is determined to not let Zuko get a break.
    The last thing he had planned that morning was going after the avatar again.
    Sokka was going to be so smug.

    [“Shush! You need to be quiet or they’ll hear us!”

    Who will hear us?” Zuko balked, “Sokka Son of Hakoda are you making me do something illegal?? I’m the Fire Lord, I can’t just-“

    Sokka grabbed his face and pulled him into a rash kiss, effectively silencing the other man. “Zuko, baby, I love you. But you yell really loud sometimes.”]

    ----

    Zuko has been extremely stressed lately, yet still finds time to support Sokka and listen to his problems. So Sokka, being the good boyfriend that he is, decides he needs to do something to help give back. Time for a plan!

    Summary

    Something I thought about while I was reading "The Promise"(The first ATLA graphic novel). I would suggest reading that before this, but I guess you don't have??? to?
    This would take place before the resolution of the story. Rated Teen + cause there is a *bAd WoRD* near the end.
    Anyway.

    Zuko's not doing so great and Suki and Ty Lee want to help. So they do.
