Orpheus was a poor boy, but he had a gift to give; for a shining moment, that last day of winter, the way the world could be and the way it was were one and the same.

Summary
"The beach has a special way of smoothing even the most ragged edges."
When the Gaang are forced to evacuate the Air Temple and relocate to Ember Island, the prospect of a weeks-long beach vacation in the middle of a warzone is strange and unappealing to Suki and Jet. Neither one of them feels very relaxed; but it might be just what they need.

Summary
Zuko, Sokka thinks, is like a black cat. Looks elegant, but is in reality a ball of anger and disdain. Above it all, however, he's an ill omen, always present when Sokka's world is going to shit.
Aang is captured by the Fire Nation? Of course, that’s Zuko's fault.
Suki's village is set ablaze? Zuko's around setting things on fire.
The North Pole is besieged? Oh hey, Zuko's here.
Sokka is trapped on a remote island with no way to get home, his friends missing and possibly dead? It was honestly stupid of him to think Zuko wouldn't be there. Still, as days stretch into weeks without any sign of help, maybe it's better to have company than to try to accomplish the impossible feat of getting home alone.
...maybe.

Summary
"We're going to be alcoholics by the time we're thirty," Sokka sighed.
"You think we'll live to be thirty?" Zuko asked, honestly thrilled. Sokka had pretty good instincts. Perhaps Zuko should reevaluate his long term goals. He could start by having long term goals.
A more likely alternative was that Sokka was just a hopeless optimist. It just went to show, you never truly saw another man until you stood shoulder to shoulder against a fleet of war balloons intent on raining death upon the city you loved.
Zuko was just a normal guy with normal interests. He liked theatre, burglary, crotchety ostrich horses, watching the Blind Bandit crush her opponents in a glorious display of skill and violence... just your standard banished prince things. It wasn't his fault he kept stumbling into rebellions and uncovering long-buried secrets. Fine, maybe freeing the prisoners was on him, but he was completely innocent of all other treason. Zuko was his father's loyal son. He'd never betray his nation.
Or:
Uncle Iroh took a more creative approach to fostering Zuko's appreciation of other cultures. Now it's everyone's Problem.- Language:

Summary
“Let us approach a much more modest question: not whether we can know the universe or the Milky Way Galaxy or a star or a world. Can we know, ultimately and in detail, a grain of salt?” – Carl Sagan

Immediately following the events of Episode 25, Carlos realizes he’s been asking the wrong questions.

Summary
“Where’s your brother?”
It’s the first sign of expression Iroh’s seen on her face — a flash skipping across impassive brown eyes, twined fingers twitching ever so slightly, before they go as still as the curtains in Lu Ten’s uncombed room.
“Did they not tell you? He’s dead,” Azula says.
or: azula is fourteen when she becomes an only child, leaving her in the unasked-for aftereffects of zuko’s calculated suicide.
