Summary
“Augh, no,” Sollux stopped him. “Strider, your white ass is not allowed to speak to us in anything other than English, remember? That was the deal I made with Dirk when he asked Tuna and I to teach him Korean, so that you would never be allowed to use it in my presence.”
“Since when does using Spanish words count as speaking Korean?” Dave answered. “Are you implying that if I break into your house to steal your kimchi to put it on a dish, I’m actually making myself some delicious enchiladas?”
Karkat just groans, because he’s been dealing with these two since grade school and doesn’t know whether to punch them or kiss them. No, scratch that, stupid brain, he meant punch. 100%, he only meant punch.
Or in which it’s the 2010’s, Karkat Vantas is part of a hippie cult and has a complicated relationship with his mother, Sollux Captor wants to go from the prettiest girl in school to the coolest guy but ends up becoming the New Vriska instead, and Dave Strider doesn't know if he's going out with one or both of them because he had the great idea to suggest they pretend to date.

Summary
When Zuko was thirteen, his father attempted to kill him by the command of Firelord Azulon, burning through half of his face with the fiercest flame he could conjure. When Zuko failed to die, Ursa begged for her son’s life in exchange for the Firelord’s. She fled with her children after delivering counterfeit poison to Ozai and they hid among the refugees of Ba Sing Se.
A baby was left at their door when Zuko was seventeen, from an encounter he could not recall. His mother wailed harder than the newborn infant when she found out about his work as an escort. He quit that day, and named his daughter Izumi.
At twenty-three, Zuko meets Katara and Sokka, who both fled their homes as children to seek refuge from the raids of their tribe. However, Zuko meets them in very different circumstances: Katara as a trainee at the strip club he works at, and Sokka as his daughter’s teacher at Ba Sing Se Primary School.

Summary
The throne room holds a kind of gravity to it, like the Southern Air Temple, like Hama’s home. It’s seen the destruction of generations, of cultures, of people and property and locations and hope.
And now, the throne sits, bare and waiting for a person who does not exist. Uncle Iroh cannot take the throne without challenging Ozai as he was formally abdicated months ago. Ozai is too weak to fight. His challenge to the throne will have to wait, but he also has no living relatives, no sons or daughters or step-children to continue the royal line. He’s too old to produce children. Sokka doesn’t know whether Uncle Iroh will ascend to the throne. He doesn’t know if he respects this choice, or if it’s a weakness.
The throne is bare. There’s a very real possibility that this is how it will remain.

Summary
“Look, I did something stupid, and I’m better now so can we get all of these needles out of me and these sticky things off of me?”
“Sokka,” His father’s voice is hard but not rough. He talks to Sokka like he’s a kid convinced his backyard contraption can actually fly him across the world. “You attempted suicide and almost succeeded.”
“Yeah, and grass is green, and the sky is blue. Can we just go home?”
The look his father gives him almost makes him wither. He’s seen this face on his dad before but never for him. Sometimes, he’d catch the man looking at old photos- or sometimes, he’d stare at him and Katara for a bit too long. Like he was grieving.
But he can’t grieve Sokka if he’s not even fucking dead.
“Sokka…you need help. Help that I don’t think you’re going to get going home, son.”
Or Sokka attempts suicide, kisses a guy, and finds out the world is a bit crazy for everyone.
