    Summary

    In the aftermath of the Agni Kai, Katara watches over a recovering Zuko and they bare their souls to each other. In the two weeks immediately after the war's end, Katara finds herself lost in the labyrinthian halls of the Fire Nation Royal Palace and in her own heart. Then, she leaves for home and does not see Zuko again for three long years.
    Since the war, Katara is plagued by strange visions in the southern aurora: entropic shadows swallowing towns and people. Believing these visions to be the guilt of her inner subconscious, Katara is compelled to return to the world beyond the safety of her southern shores. Meanwhile, strife and instability lie in wait beneath the world's political landscape like a dolphin piranha under the ice ready to strike. With world politics shifting and her tribe stronger, Katara decides to step onto the global stage in the newly-created Four Nations Council and finds herself among old friends - as well as new adversaries and challenges.

    -Set post-canon, VERY canon-divergent state-of-the-world (ie: comics irrelevant).
    -Starts with a flashback, but will not stay in the past. Time skips imminent.

    Summary

    Sticks and stones may break Katara's bones, but words—well, words were how the sticks and stones were brought to her homeland, to her family, to break countless bones of her own people. It was no surprise to her that at State University, Ba Sing Se, she would hear those same words, parroted by the pretentious, infuriating Zuko. She grew used to parrying his rhetoric, to challenging his debates, to waging her little war as she helped to organize against the bigger picture that set them against one another.

    So what was she to think when, one day, Zuko crossed the aisle? How could the same mouth that spouted apologia for years now proclaim an alliance with her? How can she ever trust him?

    A contemporary AU where the Gaang is a bunch of organizers, and Zuko has been the asshole thorn in their side.

    Summary

    Five years post-canon, Shen Qingqiu and his husband were supposed to return to the sect, as per usual. But as the peak lord comes down with a mysterious cough, things may not be as fine as they seem. As more people fall ill, everyone is forced to confront what they've all been avoiding.

    OR Thank fuck the story was over! Goodbye fuckass wife plots and life-threatening shindigs! Listen-LISTEN! It's just a cough. Just a little cough syrup and presto! Hey uhhh... why's everyone staring at me like that-

    To grieve is to lose something. And that is just the price of having the chance to love and cherish it.

    Summary

    Shen Yuan transmigrates as Zhan Yuan, a child raised in the Warm Red Pavilion. His first go at attempting Cang Qiong Mountain Sect trials is ruined by his being sold to another brothel. His full courtesan duties are expected of him by sixteen—he meets a young Luo Binghe just shy of that.

    They both make it to the Cang Qiong Mountain Sect trials and Zhan Yuan is accepted at Qing Jing Peak. It isn’t a bad life, but his past never quite seems to escape him.

    (or, divergent courtesan shen yuan au where he gets to be a disciple this time)

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu has a bare moment of dismayed comprehension before Luo Binghe is moving again, releasing his hold on Xiu Ya only so that he can swirl around Shen Qingqiu in a blindingly fast movement, getting behind Shen Qingqiu and using his now-free right arm to pin Shen Qingqiu against him, Shen Qingqiu’s back to his chest.

    “Caught you, Shizun,” Luo Binghe says in Shen Qingqiu’s ear, and then he tips them backward through the portal.

    Two years after the Immortal Alliance Conference, Luo Binghe reappears in the Human Realm—directly on Qing Jing Peak, in order to kidnap Shen Qingqiu to the Demon Realm. Little does Shen Qingqiu know, this isn’t the right Luo Binghe.

    The Original Luo Binghe has finally, after years of searching, found a kind Shizun of his own to kidnap and keep in his own universe—and this time, no one is going to take Shizun from him.
