    Summary

    The Avatar and his friends offer Zuko freedom. Freedom from General Bujing. From the forced servitude of slavery. From the empty nothingness that had consumed his life.

    He takes it even though he knows there has to be a cost (everything, even a life, has a cost).

    And while he slowly accepts that the offer was made with no strings attached, his newfound freedom will not allow him to escape the fact that because of him Uncle Iroh is dead. And after months of suppression... so too is his firebending.

    Summary

    "You think I hate you? You think I'd ever kill you?" Sokka holds Zuko's face in both hands, blood dripping from his lips. "I'd fall on my spear for you. I'd find you anywhere. What do you think that means?"

    Rescued, but imprisoned, Zuko finds himself no further from death on a water tribe ship. Sokka, the chief, would see him bleeding out on the boards of the deck as justice. He's a fire bender, the evil of the war that his father rages through their world. Zuko hasn't been a part of that war. Not for years. Now he's thrust back into it against his will, finding himself fighting on a side he never expected to be a part of. Maybe he'll find a cause worth fighting for; someone worth fighting for.

    Summary

    Before the events of squirming tadpoles connected a group of unlikely strangers into a begrudging partnership to save the world, Astarion roamed the streets of Baldur's Gate as a vampire slave to the Szarr family. His master, Cazador, forced him to seduce and lure thousands of victims to his doorstep, and if that wasn’t slight enough, he saw Astarion as his personal toy of torment and torture.

    One hundred and fifty years later, anything that remained of the man before had been snuffed out by the heel of Cazador’s boot. That is until one night, when Astarion, yet again on the hunt for his master, comes across a possible target unlike any he’s met before. A charismatic and handsome drow who is equal parts word-smith, warrior, and wizard. This man’s otherworldly nature seems to see right through Astarion’s elaborately crafted persona, and more than that, he can break the mental hold Cazador has on him and shroud his presence from the vampire lord. The stranger, for whatever reason, is charmed by Astarion and offers him a deal: His protection from Cazador’s control for Astarion’s companionship.

    What else can Astarion do but agree?

    Summary

    Soulflowers are the beauty in pain, the soulmark left from a scar on your soulmate. Its a gift from the spirits and its supposedly meant to pair you with your perfect half. Sokka's calling bullshit though and Zuko would be inclined to agree. Soulmates aren't supposed to be fighting on opposite sides of a war and really shouldn't try to kill each others' friends. Well, Sokka's friends. Zuko is too awkward and honor-driven to actually have any.
