Prince Zuko is born with eyes of pure gold, the surest sign of a strong inner flame.
Prince Zuko is born unlucky. He has no fire to speak of. No spark of potential.

bato acquires a son (and other things he Did Not ask for) by Jour
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender
03 May 2021
Tags
Summary
Bato, confirmed bachelor, heartthrob of the Southern Water Tribe (self-proclaimed), and prankster extraordinaire, lives an easygoing life of freedom.
He is perfectly happy with this setup. He does not want responsibilities. He does not want children. In fact, under no circumstance does he ever, ever want to be a father.
Sadly for him his best friend is Hakoda, who is determined to make his life as difficult as possible.
Asshole.
Bato’s journey through fatherhood as Zuko’s dad, one painstaking step at a time. Including (but not limited to) taking baths, fending off boys, and dealing with the misfortune of being friends with Hakoda.

Summary
Sokka isn’t stupid. Not that his sister is, mind you (at least, he’d never call her that to her face now that she’s honed her waterbending), or any of the rest of Team Avatar, although sometimes it feels like he’s living in a different world from the rest of them — a world where running out of food means starving, and walking into a town full of firebenders with the Avatar in tow will get you killed, rather than help you free a beaten-down Earthbender colony.
Anyways.
Sokka isn’t stupid, which is why he laughs directly in Aunt Wu’s face when she tells him that he will marry the Fire Lord.

Fandom Avatar: The Last Airbender, Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)
24 Jun 2026
Summary
Zuko is banished and starts at the Western Air Temple, as we all know. But a single discovery alters the course of his journey, because how can it not change when he has a secret dragon egg to take care of? Follow Zuko through the years of his banishment before Aang wakes up as he makes friends, important discoveries, and waves.
(And then how that changes the way things play out after Aang wakes up.)

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?

There Is No Fire Lord by OccasionalStorytelling for MuffinLance
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender
08 Sep 2020
Tags
Summary
This is an AU for MuffinLance's "zuko botches his escape attempt and spends the rest of the war in prison then has to be Fire Lord having never gotten his redemption arc" Towards the Sun. This is more of a "zuko botches his escape attempt and spends the rest of the war in prison, and then when he becomes Fire Lord they leave him in prison" kind of thing.
After committing treason, Zuko spends months in prison, and even after both his father and Azula go missing, the guards can't coax him out of his cell. And then the Avatar shows up. How's the Gaang supposed to talk to a Fire Lord who doesn't even believe he's the Fire Lord?

Summary
Zuko doesn’t have time to deal with pressure for an arranged marriage, especially since he isn’t even sure he likes women that way. (A realisation that has absolutely nothing to do with Ambassador Sokka - shut up, Suki.) Katara and Aang have broken up again, and the Northern Water Tribe are pushing for a match between the North and South.
Which leads Zuko and Katara to develop a genius, foolproof, only slightly drunken plan: they can pretend to date for the length of Katara’s stay in the palace, giving them both a brief reprieve from political pressures on their love lives.
What could go wrong?

Tags
Summary
Clint Barton's Super Secret Snipers' Club. (Invitation and pending mental health evaluation required.)
"When Steve brings Bucky back to the tower for the first time, Clint’s first thought is that Tony Stark’s pride and joy is quickly becoming a less of a very tall and expensive ‘fuck you’ in the faces of investors who don’t believe in self-sustaining energy, and more of a superhero rehabilitation center."
Boyfriends, compromises and learning to like oneself.
