Summary
The war has changed. In the days of Sozin and his daughter, Fire Lord Kazue, the Fire Nation fought with armies and warships and brought the world to its knees. But Kazue saw that the war was unsustainable. That they were going to lose. So she taught her son peace. She showed her firstborn Azulon how to reach a stalemate, how to end the war without letting anyone know they had lost. This is your legacy, she promised him: remaining a global power without shedding any more blood.
Fire Lord Azulon cooled down the war, but people still fight. The world is no longer a warzone, a multicultural city has sprung up on Fire Nation conquered lands they've ostensibly given back to the Earth Kingdom. The Four Nations live in peace, but a charged wind blows throughout the world. Everyone with a nose can smell sulfur, can tell the half-brokered peace is a powder keg. This world is unsustainable, something will set it alight
The war has changed. It's traded armies for intelligence; small groups of highly skilled individuals fight for their Nation in the shadows. People like Sokka and Suki, who are about to rip the Fire Nation a new one and trick these sons-a-bitches into giving up all their intel.
Or so they think.

Summary
"We want to use you to gather intelligence on Ozai's activities," Sokka explains. "That way we can figure out a surefire way to take him down."
"Something that would either end his political career or implicate him enough that the Fire Nation government would have no choice but to depose him," Suki says.
"Only if you want to," Aang adds hastily. "It could be dangerous."
Aris' mouth opens, maybe to object, but Song cuts across her. "I'll do it," she says, looking at Katara. Putting her life in danger in the hopes of getting to hang out with a pretty girl? Maybe the queerest thing Song has done to date.

Summary
"That's the Fire Nation Princess Azula," Jin says, voice hard. "Her team is also competing in the volleyball tournament, we'd better stay out of her way." "That might be, uh, difficult," Song whispers. The three of them are heading towards Song, Zuko, and Jin. "Why is she coming over here?"
"She's my sister," Zuko mumbles out of the side of his mouth.
"What?" Jin shouts.

Summary
Will Solace can keep it together at the best of times.
(apparently The Best of Times includes blinking under gritty airplane lights at two in the morning with a whole flight in front of him, little to no sleep, and some skinny kid taking up the seat printed on his ticket.)

Summary
(And Zuko wants to laugh, he does, because he’s twenty-one, and he's the guardian of a five-year-old sister he didn’t even know existed until his mother died in a car crash, and he's legally responsible for his nineteen-year-old sister who’s been admitted for almost a year of her short life, and rent is due, and his temp job doesn’t pay nearly enough, and he wishes he had someone to help, but he has no clue where Uncle is, and no other adult has ever cared enough to help, and he’s tired.
He’s just so, so, tired.)
