    Summary

    Thirteen years after the end of the Hundred-Year War, Fire Lord Zuko has rebuilt a nation and survived every enemy bold enough to challenge his rule. But now the opposing factions have found a quieter weapon: Zuko has no wife and no heir.
    Toph has problems of her own. Republic City keeps rejecting her plans for a metalbending police force. Her academy depends on her reputation to survive. Her father wants her married, and every suitor wants her tamed.
    Then a letter arrives at her doorstep bearing the Fire Lord’s seal.
    A fake courtship should solve both their problems. Zuko gets the Fire Council to leave him alone long enough for him to find a proper Fire Lady and make a love-match. Toph gets protection from suitors, leverage for her academy, and perhaps the political backing Republic City keeps denying her. It is practical, temporary, and completely false.
    However, Zuko and Toph have never been good at doing what they are supposed to.

    Summary

    After Mai dies from childbirth fever, Zuko is left alone with a newborn daughter, a nation demanding his attention, and a grief so overwhelming he can barely breathe through it.

    When Iroh realizes his nephew is falling apart, he sends word across the Four Nations. And without hesitation, the people who once crossed the world beside Zuko drop everything to come back to him.

    Because some losses are too heavy to survive alone.

    Summary

    “Maybe it won’t be that bad,” she offers a small smile, like it’s a secret saved only between the two of them. Zuko promptly keeps it to the confines of his memories. “It’s you, after all.”

    Summary

    Zuko was only eleven when he met a strange girl that his uncle had taken in.

    Toph was only seven when her home was taken over, only to be whisked away to another nation.

    And Iroh now had a tiny girl with jaded eyes under his care and protection, all for the dying wish of his late son.

     

    In other words, a ward is adopted into the royal family of the Fire Nation. This changes everything but nothing at the same time.

    Summary

    Brokered for harbor tariffs and trade routes, the marriage between Fire Lord Zuko and Lady Toph Beifong was never meant to be more than a performance.

    A fracturing court consumes him; she is an isolated stranger hidden behind a mask of perfect noble etiquette.

    But when military secrets leak to the Earth Kingdom, Zuko’s growing paranoia turns inward, driving a brutal wedge between them just as Toph discovers she is carrying the royal bloodline alone.

    Summary

    “What…” he asked finally, voice low and controlled. “…was that?” He turned back toward her, golden eyes fixed on her with focused disbelief. “Do you have any idea what you just did?”

    Toph crossed her arms, leaning her weight back onto one heel. “Just proving your security system is absolute trash. You’re welcome.”

    “You tore through the floor during a national council meeting.”

    “And now you know someone could.”

    “That someone was you.”

    “Exactly.” she replied brightly. “You’re welcome.”

    •••

    Toph Beifong returns to the Fire Nation after more than a year away with an impossible request, terrible timing and absolutely no respect for structural integrity.

    Fire Lord Zuko should probably be focused on the political disaster she caused.

    Instead, he finds himself focused on far more dangerous things.

    Summary

    As awkward as Zuko is, he always tries to be honest with high feelings, especially when it comes to his friends. If there's anything he's always been, it's that he was outward and loud about his wants and feelings- although change and years of friendship mellowed it down to something to quiet but impactful. No longer angry and violent, but something sweet and kind. The awkwardness was there but hey, who will tell Toph how beautiful she is if not him, right?

    OR

    Five times Zuko compliments Toph in different ways. Plus the one time Toph finally confronted him about it.

    Summary

    Seven years after the end of the Hundred-Year War, in the heart of the newfound territory of Republic City, Toph Beifong deals with the fact that she had peaked at the age of twelve. Resorting to underground fighting rings and reckless deals with the serpents that lay in the shadows of the city, her life had become a constant search for adrenaline. It's when Aang and Katara grow concerned for their friend that they reach out to a young firelord for help, or rather, offer it.

    Firelord Zuko took over the throne from the clutches of his tyrant father years ago, but he's still cleaning up the mess Ozai made. In the rather anarchical city of Yu Dao, he is in desperate need of someone to bridge the gap between the two bending communities that make up its population. But it's when Toph arrives in the city that his focus tends to stray more often than not from his duties.

    Summary

    It sounded stupid, but she could feel his gaze burning into the back of her head. She felt rooted to the spot, and not in the regular earthbender fighting stance way. No doubt her face was on fire.

    "Who's the firebender at the back?" she whispered to Katara, not moving an inch. She felt the girl glance behind her for a second.

    "You mean Lu Ten? How did you-?"

    "Not him." she cut in, because she'd already sensed Lu Ten before. "The other one."

    "Oh, that's Zuko."
