    Summary

    – and Azula’s crackling bolt of lightning steadied, became still and straight, and was a beam of blue light thrusting from the horizon to the sky. The cold voltaic shock through his nerves was the sting of cold air damp with spray from the sea, the pressure of electrical charge the weight of armour on his shoulders, the harsh blue-white glow of lightning the grey-white-blue of sea and ice and sky.

    …His scalp was cold.

    Zuko doesn't know why he's suddenly back here again, here on his ship amongst the icebergs, with the Avatar's light stabbing into the sky. He's not even sure this is real. But if it is, he's going to do things better this time.

    Of course, things go off the rails almost immediately.

    Summary

    Harold fled in shame. He was practically an old man, and he had done nothing with his life! His sister, Destroyer Yogosoth, had burned entire houses to the ground by herself. His father, Clever Belemoth, had tricked an entire human family into eating themselves. He was nothing but a burden to the Flesh Hive. Filled with self-loathing, Harold left the colony and vowed to never return.

    Or: One of Jane Prentiss' worms gains agency and a friend.

    Summary

    A semi-AU, semi-canon rewrite of sorts. The major events will kind of still happen as they happen in the books, like characters that die will still die. So, don't have hope, babes.
    ~~~
    Who am I to be if I despise every option open to me? A killer, a sadist, a liar. I know that I can be better than what the Spider Queen hopes for me.

    I will carve it out in stone, I will weave it in the webs of Lolth herself; Drizzt Do'Urden, the Drow Who Escaped.
    ~~~
    Many thanks to those that kudos/comment.
