    Summary

    Zuko was supposed to die that night, at his father's hands and at the behest of his grandfather.

    Ursa was supposed to vanish that night, and take nothing with her but her name.

    Things didn't exactly go to plan.

    OR: spirited away from the fire nation by their mother and abandoned to a life of poverty and running, zuko and azula learn to manage. right until the avatar and his friends drop way too cheerfully into their life, and the war returns to them in earnest. a story of hope, hardship and learning to believe in humanity again. zuko wants absolutely nothing to do with it, thank you.

    Always trust Sokka's instincts by Thisisentertaining
    (archived, 16 works)

    Sokka's instincts had screamed at him ever since Jet showed his smarmy, smug, wheat chewing face, but without evidence he couldn't convince Katara and Aang to listen to him. Honestly, as time went on and he couldn't find anything to support his unease he started to doubt it himself.

    Then Jet let him in on the Freedom Fighter's biggest secret.

    Sokka should have known better than to ignore his instincts.

    Summary

    Zuko was born a girl, Azula a boy—and the Fire Nation never imagined the unwanted daughter of the second son would ever be named Crown Princess. But when she is, Zhao sees the opportunity. And takes it.

    Some things never change. Zuko is still banished, still hunting the Avatar. But this time, she’s not fighting for her honor, but for her daughter’s future.

    Summary

    Zuko is in love with his best friends, and his best friends are in love with each other. That's the way that things have always been, and Zuko is okay with that. He's perfectly content watching them love one another from afar.

    Or- Sokka, Suki, and Zuko take care of each other after the war and find more than friendship along the way, while Toph bangs her head against a wall in the background. Post-canon AU.

    Summary

    The first time that Sokka sees his childhood nemesis after ten years of blissful separation, he makes out with him in front of his homophobic family. Zuko's proposal- that they fake a relationship for a summer of public events on Sokka's home island to mess with his father and grandfather- is absolutely ludicrous, and it definitely won't work. Not only is Sokka straight, but he and Zuko have hated each other for as long as he can remember.

    Then Sokka realizes he can use it to his own advantage as well. It's just for the summer, right?

    Zukka fake dating modern AU with a heavy sprinkle of trauma and healing!
