    Summary

    Zuko isn’t sent to capture the Avatar after his Agni Kai. Instead, his banishment is permanent. No exceptions. No opportunity to regain his honor. He’s unceremoniously dumped in the Earth Kingdom and left with nothing but a debilitating scar and an uncle who still claims he cares.

    An assassination attempt quickly proves that his father isn’t satisfied with just exiling him. He and Iroh decide to hide out in the remote town of Gaoling, one of the few places overlooked by the Fire Nation due to its strategic unimportance.

    Zuko’s pretty sure the Spirits hate him. Well, that’s fine. He hates them too.

    --

    In which Zuko gets a job in a tea shop, accidentally acquires some stolen swords, realizes his father was actually pretty horrible and meets a blind girl who’s too stubborn for her own good, not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    Zuko grasps the golden egg in his large, gentle hands. Sokka can barely hear him when he says, reverently, “Thank you.” The Chief doesn’t smile, but his expression warms like a dark stone in the sun. He bows once more before turning and leaving the throne room. Zuko stares at the gift in his hands with a soft, unreadable expression. Sokka’s heart flutters in his chest.

    or

    [The Sun Warriors give Zuko a golden egg for his 20th birthday. He's obsessed with it.]
    [Meanwhile, Sokka gets up the nerve to express his feelings.]

    Summary

    It starts at the Boiling Rock.

    Sokka sees Suki and his eyes go wide, then soft, and Zuko feels everything inside his chest seize. His heart stutters, and he’s afraid it might stop. He coughs and it tastes like grass.

    Summary

    All Zuko had been trying to do was wash some dishes. Or: The one where Zuko and Katara both mean well, but still can't find their footing around each other in time to prevent explosive shouting, broken dishes, an impromptu arrest, and Team Avatar's third- nay, fourth jailbreak. Fifth? They've lost count at this point, but at least they're not willing to lose Zuko... now, if only he realized that.

    Summary

    [ There’s an intake of breath, like Zuko is going to say something, but it stays quiet between them. He's gathering the courage to say something, and Sokka is going to try and be patient, even though he doesn’t have a lot of practice in it.

    "I think my father is abusive."

    And Sokka almost laughs at that, just out of sheer misery.]

    Things aren't the same after their little fieldtrip to the Boiling Rock. Sokka tries to navigate.

    Summary

    (He screamed toward the moon, they murmur, it’s a sign)

    (The sun set on him, others scoff, it’s a sign)

    Prince Zuko is born into rumor and bloodshed. He is raised in flames and scars.

    Sozin's Comet is coming again, for Earth instead of Air, and Agni will not let it pass lightly. Not without intervention.

    Summary

    “Shit,” Toph grunts, and promptly drops them all into a pit, shutting the ceiling and encasing them in total darkness. The raiders they’re fighting are good, fast and clearly experienced, and Toph is starting to get irritated and just a little hungry.

    Katara and Sokka freeze instantly. The raiders do too, albeit with a bit more cussing. Aang switches from airbending to earthbending so that he can see and Zuko… keeps fighting?

    Summary

    Iroh is tired when he heads to his quarters to write a letter to the rest of his family in the Fire Nation. So tired, in fact, that he accidentally implies in it that the knife is meant for his niece and the doll for his nephew. Azula and Ursa don’t notice the mistake.

    Zuko, however, does.

    Summary

    Zuko tries.

    Agni, he tries. Uncle wants so desperately for him to do the right thing, and he wants to, he does, he does, he does- 

    So when the Water Tribe girl looks at him with wild eyes, begging for help, and Azula raises one eyebrow with a sneer, Zuko chooses. 

    Azula’s scream of anger when he blasts a fireball in her direction is almost worth the twenty Dai Li agents that immediately surround him.

    (or: Zuko is taken prisoner by Azula in the catacombs. Turns out, being kept miles away from the sun isn't so great for your bending.)

    Summary

    Of all the places he could have walked into--of all the tea shops in Ba Sing Se--(of which there are many)--he had chosen the one that Prince-fucking-Zuko worked at.

    Or: Early on during his time in Ba Sing Se, Sokka stops for a cup of tea. This small action changes everything.

    Summary

    “I seriously have no idea how Zuko has gotten this good at making tea,” Sokka says, taking a sip of his. He doesn’t even particularly like tea, but Zuko’s is great. Definitely an improvement from the Western Air Temple. They’re in Iroh’s tea shop, because it was there and they had some time to kill.

    “Takes after his uncle, I guess,” Toph says, and Ty Lee laughs on the other side of the table. “What’s so funny?”

    “Well, you know,” Ty Lee says with another bright little laugh, waving them off.

    Summary

    “So, to put this together,” Toph says to Aang in a highly-measured tone that she didn’t know she even had the capacity for. “You were sparring, you had Zuko on the ground, and you held flames close to his, you know, scarred face?”

    Summary

    [Aang’s the one who brings it to him. It’s tea, obviously, but it doesn’t smell like any tea that Zuko’s ever had. Spicy but also kind of...sour?

    Zuko stares down at his cup with a sort of vague concern. He doesn’t want to drink this.

    Aang’s staring up at him so earnestly, though, and Zuko’s never been able to say no to cute, googly eyes. It’s not right. He doesn’t want anything to do with Aang’s weird, spicy tea.]

    Or,

    In which Zuko isn’t poisoned, but in fact finds himself at the tender mercies of a truth serum. In retrospect, maybe being poisoned would have been more pleasant.

    Summary

    At first, Sokka dismisses it.

    He notices, they all do, that Katara feeds Zuko less. A lot less. He notices that Zuko’s portions are often burnt and lacking any care, so even the little bit he does get is barely salvageable.

    Sokka notices, but he doesn’t care.
