    Summary

    This story is an alternate continuation of my completed work We Can’t Choose Us.
    Chapters 1–16 are exactly the same as in that version, so if you’ve already read them, you can start right here.
    But if you’re new to the story, I recommend starting from the beginning for the full emotional context.
    📖 You can read Chapters 1–16 here:
    https://archiveofourown.info/works/62580298/chapters/160180546

    In this version, I changed one decision, and it led to a very different ending.
    Because so many of you asked for it. Because so many of you believed they deserved more.

    Summary

    Cursed to live with the body of a fearsome beast, Zuko hid from a cruel world that would not hesitate to destroy him, consumed with rage for those who had betrayed him, resigned to a lifetime of solitude. But then a ray of hope came in the form of a beautiful, blue-eyed woman. Could she look beyond his physical appearance and break his curse? Or would he forever remain alone?

    Summary

    When Sozin’s Comet never crossed the sky, the war never began. The Fire Nation never attacked. And the world, surprisingly, moved on.

    Decades later, the four nations celebrate annual unification summits—diplomatic events where leaders and children gather to build alliances, exchange culture… and tolerate one another.

    Zuko, surrounded by politics, duty, and silence, has grown up trying to be the prince he never wanted to be. He’s learned to be proper, serious, disciplined.
    But all of that begins to falter when he meets two siblings from the Southern Water Tribe.

    Katara is everything Zuko doesn’t understand: impulsive, defiant, with a sharp tongue and a smile that disarms him (though he swears he hates her).
    But as the years pass, and their encounters add up, childhood hatred begins to shift—
    into whispered words, lingering stares… and touches that were never meant to happen.

    Summary

    Later on, they would realize it was done by the Moon Spirit.

    Later on, they would conclude that when her life was threatened the Great Moon Spirit Tui did what it took to survive.

    As the foul Fire Human who dared commit the blasphemy of threatening the very moon held the sack containing her aloft, Tui's small fish eyes managed to find a gap in the cloth, and through it catch sight of the young human girl she had once blessed with her power so that she might live.

    And with that blessing, the two remained connected. So Tui used her powers to reach out and grasp that connection as tightly as she could.

    Then, going against her name, going against fate, going against time itself, Tui for once did not push.

    She pulled!

    Princess Yue gasped as something yanked free inside her mind. Like a dam breaking free and flooding in her mind.

    Memories!

    ___

    In which remembering your past life becomes contagious, and it becomes a question of if they've all learned from their past or are doomed to repeat it.

    Summary

    Summary

    In a city where loyalty is currency and peace is always negotiable, one woman becomes the face of a nation she’s never been allowed to claim.

    Lynn has spent her life in the gray zones of empire—an Earth Kingdom refugee raised in a Fire Nation colony, too foreign for one world, too familiar for the other. When a diplomatic marriage contract ties her fate to Fire Lord Zuko, what starts as a political performance threatens to expose everything they both fear: their doubts, their hopes, and their inconvenient longing for something real.

    But empires don’t change for love—and neither do their ghosts.

    As Yu Dao becomes the powder keg of a fragile peace, Lynn must decide whether she’ll play the role she’s been handed… or rewrite the story entirely.

    A sweeping political romance set in the aftermath of war, The Cinderella Contract is about identity, legacy, and love forged in fire.

    Summary

    Some people have an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other, but not Zuko. Divergence from the end of Blue Spirit. Zuko joins the Gaang early and drives Katara crazy. Mostly canon-style characterisation, tone, plot, (lack of) swearing and sex, violence ... mostly.

    Summary

    Sokka: he hasn’t stopped talking about himself
    Sokka: this date might be a bust 🥲

    Zuko sighed and stood up, closing his laptop. He didn’t bother to reply as he made his way to the kitchen, putting water to boil. He knew that Sokka would be home from his date soon, and when he was, they’d sit together over tea and Zuko would get the full nitty-gritty on what was wrong with this date.

    -

    Or, in which Zuko and Sokka are roommates, and Zuko watches (and pines) as Sokka works through the trials and tribulations of modern dating.

    Based on the fic 'boy problems' by plumthicket and spudbud, which is linked in the notes! Title comes from the song by The Zombies.

    Summary

    Together for a little over a year and a half, Zuko and Katara are in a committed relationship. They never meant to keep it a secret, but there was just never a good time to tell the others. With Sokka and Suki's wedding coming up, they decided to keep it secret just a bit longer because they don't want to take away from their special day. The plan is to tell their close friends and family before going fully public once everything is done. They can keep it to themselves for another four months. Right?

    Summary

    Ba Sing Se Stands!

    The tide of the war is shifting. Rapid Fire Nation successes in the beginning brought them to the gates of the Earth Kingdom capital itself, but they have broken upon its walls. Now, aided by their new Air Nomad and Water Tribe allies, and armed with advanced new weapons, the Earth Army sets out to liberate their country- and drive the hated Fire Nation invader into the sea.

    The Fire Nation may be on the back foot, but the war is still far from over. The Great Comet still burns its way through space, and is closing in with every passing day. When it arrives, every Firebender on the planet will gain a massive power boost, and the tide could shift once more. Worst of all, Avatar Yue lingers in a Fire Nation jail cell, captured along with the exiled, now disgraced, Prince Zuko. Their friends, now left without a leader, must decide on a new course of action. And all the while, an increasingly desperate Fire Lord Ozai plans a sacrilegious sacrifice, which could put the Fire Nation back on top for good…
