    Summary

    Aang knew grief like an old friend. In his youth, it had been painful to grapple with the idea that the Air Nomads were gone, that he was truly alone. He knew deep down that no matter what he did, that weight on his shoulders was so heavy it would follow him into his next life. Spirits help his successor.

    But this time, it was different. This was new. The emptiness that often accompanied the pit in Aang’s stomach was replaced with something sickening. His body rejected the possibility of Bumi’s death like poison. It wasn’t real. He had to be alive.

    OR: When he's 19, Bumi II gets hurt in the United Forces and his family is told he is missing in action. Aang and Katara try to be there for their son and Tenzin and Kya navigate the new dynamic as friends and family rally aorund them. We explore family dynamics, being biracial, trauma, and being okay with being not okay.

    (includes cloud baby flashbacks!)

    Summary

    After the events of War Crimes, Sokka and Zuko have escaped Zhao’s warship and are fleeing across the Earth Kingdom. As well as unfamiliar terrain, they have to navigate their shared trauma, work out where they fit into the war, and their place in each others lives.

    Sokka is aware that being friends with the enemy is going to bring complications, but he probably should have guessed that being friends with Zuko in particular, was going to be a bit like dunking your head repeatedly into a bucket of angry Fire Ferrets.

    Katara is also grappling with the confusion of befriending an enemy, something that doesn’t prove as difficult as she had expected with the bond of shared, furious grief bridging old wounds. (Learning a new way to look at her bending doesn't hurt either)

    Azula, struggling with the Fire Lord’s mistrust, encounters a few nasty surprises and has to make some difficult decisions. Luckily, she is a great deal better at making sensible choices than her brother.

    Her father may have made a slight tactical error.

    Summary

    King Aerys II was no madman, but a man of calculation, a king who understood that power was a blade to be wielded with precision.

    His forebears had ruled with fire and blood, but the dragons were gone. Without them, Targaryens needed a different strategy. Strength alone would not keep the throne secure—marriage alliances would. Two of his three children were now spoken for, their futures dictated by the crown’s needs.

    His heir, Rhaegar, would be wed on the morrow to Cersei Lannister, the only daughter of his Hand, Lord Tywin. His middle child, Shaena, was promised to the heir of Lord Rickard Stark, a bond meant to keep the North loyal.

     

    A pre-ASOIAF AU, where King Aerys was not mad and his daughter Shaena wasn't stillborn.

     

    * 2025 update: Chapters 1, 2, 3 and 4 had been heavily edited. New chapters are being posted.*
