Summary

The feeling runs hot and pleasant through his thirium lines before he registers the sensation must be a part of his behavior conditioning programming, rewarding him for eliciting a positive response from Hank.
It’s not an emotion. Just a piece of programming.
Just programming.OR
A well-intentioned Markus kidnaps Connor and takes him to Jericho. But what happens when a machine that can feel emotions doesn't want to deviate? And what ends can justify the means?

Summary
The gang's only chance of getting ahold of the Fire Nation's plans is through a theater-loving General on Ember Island. The solution: theater heist. There's just one catch. Katara will have to sub in for the lead actress, and she knows nothing about theater. Good thing Zuko is so familiar with this play, and he's willing to help her however he can. Turns out, acting as romantic leads together complicates things a bit.

Summary
Assumed dead after his banishment, Zuko takes up The Blue Spirit mask. No one has seen his face in three years, and he won't let them. It's safer this way, being alone. After a Fire Nation general hires him to bring in Hakoda for questioning, he fails the job miserably and ends up a captive of the Water Tribe.

Summary
Zuko wakes up the first time it happens to the smell of burning flesh. He at first thinks it’s just a lingering memory, the vestiges of a nightmare he’s had many times, but then he hears the shouts and clanging of metal that accompanies it.
The telltale signs of a fight, right outside his door.
So of course he does the sensible thing and rushes toward the commotion without a second thought, still in his loose bedclothes and bleary-eyed from sleep. He practically falls out of the door, stumbling right into the middle of both the hall and the battle waging within it.
At this point, Zuko's no stranger to attempts on his life. He can handle it.
Or five times Zuko's friends save him from an assassination attempt, and one time they're almost too late.
