    Summary

    “I, uh…” Zuko shifted in his seat. “Well…” He gestured vaguely, hands following the movement of his wrists. “Yes,” he settled on finally, averting his eyes. “I’ve met my soulmate.”

    “What?” Sokka leaned forward interestedly, ignoring the soft ache behind his ribcage. “Is it that goth chick? Mel?”

    “Mai,” Zuko snapped. “And...no, it’s not her.”

    “Then who?” Suki asked. “Do we know her?”

    “Yes—No. It doesn’t matter.”

    “You don’t have to tell us, Zuko—” Katara started.

    “Good!” Zuko said, standing up. “Because I don’t want to!”

    --

    Soulmate AU Where you see in grayscale until you hear your soulmate laugh for the first time. Sokka laughs a lot, loud, proud, and bright. Zuko...barely even smiles.

    Summary

    “He imagined Zuko kneeling before his own father, a man who didn't have any reservations about hurting a child, begging in the same way. He imagined his own son being this scared of fathers. He threw up.

    Watery bile from weeks on prison food spilt through his lips and he was hacking, choking on grief and horror. War had filled his lungs with smaug and ash and as he gasped for air through tears he couldn’t care less for his own misery, only that of the boy before him.”

    or

    the 5 times someone realises Ozai isn’t the best parent +1 time they manage to convince Zuko of that fact

    Summary

    Zuko almost said it. He almost said the words I think I’m in love with you, but he choked them back down at the last second.

    Zuko would never be able to be what Sokka wanted. They might have needed each other during the summer, when two boys with too much weight on their shoulders found comfort in each other in the only way they knew how.

    But now Zuko was Fire Lord, and Sokka was leaving.

    Or, a self indulgent Ambassador Sokka & Fire Lord Zuko fic set to the tune of ‘peace’ by Taylor Swift.

    Summary

    Sokka starts whistling while they're in the war balloon. Though unfamiliar, his song is lovely and simple, and the melody steals into Zuko's heart.

    After years of self-imposed silence, Zuko dares to hum along.

    Summary

    It’s Fire Nation tradition for one’s family to vet their child’s suitors before allowing them to begin a courtship.

    Uncle finds out that Sokka’s been courting Zuko.

    Busy with matters in Ba Sing Se, he sends a representative in his stead.

    He sends Toph.

     

    Sokka really, really wants to take Zuko out on a date, so it’d be really, really awesome if Toph would stop making it so difficult for him.

    Summary

    "I'm okay, Sokka, throw up all you need to. We're both off work today, let me take care of you for the day, and hopefully you'll be feeling better tomorrow."

    "I wanna feel better now, I just got done puking and all I can think about right now is how badly I want some stewed sea prunes and glazed donuts, maybe not together though, although they might be good together."
    --
    "Think of anything else you need?" Zuko stands in the doorway, leaning against the frame.

    "Uh, actually yeah."

    After a long moment Zuko says, "Did you want to share what that is or do you want me to guess?"

    "Apregnancytest." Sokka mumbles, words all mashed together.

    "Wanna repeat that for me? I didn't quite catch it."

    "Popcorn shrimp."

    "That's absolutely not what you said, baby."

    Summary

    “Sokka…” She sighs. “What do you remember?”

    He shrugs nonchalantly. “Some assholes attacked us and I took an arrow to the shoulder. Zuko hid us out in a cave. I assume at some point we were rescued. That or I’m dead and this is a not very interesting version of the spirit realm.”

    Katara smooths his hair back like mom used to, and he’s struck suddenly by how grown up she is. They’ve both become adults since their world-saving adventures with the avatar, but it’s easy to forget that his little sister isn’t so little anymore.

    “You were bleeding out, and we weren’t expecting you back for a while, so… Zuko used firebending to cauterize the wound. It saved your life, but he’s not taking it well.” She looks away from him and Sokka is silently grateful. He doesn’t want her to see the blood drain from his face at her words.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Or what happens when Zuko is forced to use his bending in the one way he swore he never would.

    Summary

    "Sokka knows that his dad totally loved his mom, he was a wreck after she passed, and he also knows his dad is a catch who deserves someone who’ll see how cool he is. He knows this, and he was prepared to watch his dad move on. Get his groove back, if you will.

    He just doesn’t know if he ever would’ve been ready for Zuko."

    -or-

    Sokka's dad brings home his young, new boyfriend for Easter. It's a lot.

    Summary

    Kintsugi: the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by sealing the cracks with gold.

    The Fire Nation hasn’t visited some of its traditions since before the war began. Now that Firelord Zuko is in charge, he decides to reestablish one very important one. The Kintsugi Festival.

    A festival that celebrates life, survival, and body positivity. A festival that reminds everyone of how strong they are, and how much pride they should take in that. Because scars should be sealed with gold.

    Though, Zuko has his own anxieties about the celebration.
