    Summary

    “I asked around. There’s one Water Tribe prisoner here, and I’m pretty sure it’s your father.” Zuko flips his visor up, looking Sokka in the eyes as he continues. “But look, he’s been here for a while, Sokka. The Warden–”
    “Where is he?” Sokka asks. “Where’s Dad?”

    ---

    This is a canon-divergent AU where Boiling Rock is worse. I took the Warden's "special prisoner" line and ran with it. I also wanted to explore what would have happened if Hakoda had been the one who'd been in Boiling Rock for a while rather than Suki, and what that might have changed.

    Zuko is the type of person to go all-in when he commits to a goal, and that does not always go in his favor! Here we follow him, Sokka, and Hakoda through Boiling Rock and the aftermath.
