Summary
It’s eleven in the evening and there’s something on Neil’s mind. It’s obvious in the way his eyes flit back and forth, landing on everything in the dorm besides Andrew. In the way his hands clench and unclench like he’s preparing for a fight. In the way he bites his lip and ticks his jaw.
It would be unnerving for most. For Andrew, it’s amusing.OR

Summary
“Will…” Sokka trails off before clearly steeling himself. “Will your dad be mad? Like, if we get a bad mark?”
Zuko freezes, noticeably so. From hearing about Sokka’s dad and how understanding he can be, Zuko’s not too sure how to play this. He can either be honest that, yes, his dad will be furious to see a B, but that will undoubtedly upset Sokka.
“I just don’t want to disappoint him,” Zuko tries. “He’s done a lot for me and I want to prove this school wasn’t a mistake.”
Sokka nods, expression bare. “That’s tough, dude. I’m sure he’ll be proud no matter what, though. You’ve really been applying yourself.”
Zuko smiles lightly, pushing away memories of heat against his cheek. “Yeah, hopefully he will be.”

When Ozai discovers Zuko is gay, he sends him to a boarding school, one meant for children of politicians and soldiers, not business moguls. Despite his rocky place in this new school, with distance from Ozai, Zuko grows and realizes just how much he needs to hide what happens during his trips home. Sokka sees more of this than Zuko wants.
