    "I am Wan Shi Tong, He Who Knows Ten Thousand Things, and this is my library, my domain," he answered instead, "Who are you, mortal?"

    The boy hesitated but answered, "I... was Prince Zuko of the Fire Nation. My... the Fire Lord has banished me, with no recourse to return."

    Summary

    Neal trailed the lighter’s flame inches up from the painting's corner. There the heat revealed a picture of an oval, decorated with swirls and squiggly lines and dots. Peter scowled at the picture. “An Easter egg?”
    “It’s a calling card. I don’t believe it. This guy, he’s- he’s a-“
    “A forging legend?”
    “More like a myth. Nobody knows much about him. Supposedly part of a four man team, he steals and forges artwork and sends the money to children organizations, all under the same alias: The Easter Bunny."
    _
    Jack fell back as his mark gripped his arm, the man's wallet still in his grasp as he looked up to face the man that gripped him. He found his gaze locked onto two startling blue eyes and a fedora.
    "You can either slip our wallets back into my hand now, or I tell my friend here what you just did. He’s in the FBI, and I can promise you that he won’t be nearly as impressed with your little thieving act as I am.”
    _
    "Get to the point Baby Tooth."
    "The Big Four were talking about sending a mole to leak information about Pitch to the FBI... and I thought of you."
    -
    A chance meeting turns into something more, and Jack seems to be stuck in the center.

    Summary

    “I’m so proud of you, my nephew.” Uncle cups Zuko’s face in his lined hand. The gesture is so tender, his palm so warm, that Zuko has to take a fortifying breath against the sudden swell of emotion in his chest.

    “I want to be a good leader, Uncle,” Zuko says. “I want to look after my people.”

    “You will,” Uncle says. “You are, nephew.”

     

    In a new era of peace, Zuko works to be a very different Fire Lord than his forefathers. Based on this tumblr post.

    Summary

    In the next few minutes Jet witnesses the tension in Zuko’s prone, shaking frame head towards a peak. It’s odd to see how his features go slack, the perennially sullen mask that Zuko’s had on ever since Jet met him finally falling away- not in relief but in surrender, like he can do nothing else but submit to the pain. Zuko's chest rises in jerky bursts, a shudder of starts and stops that’s frankly disturbing to watch.

    Sokka reaches out to gently tousle the scruffy hair, but Zuko makes a sound that’s somewhere between a whimper and a grunt and shifts weakly to curl on his side, so Sokka lets his hand fall back instead.

    It should be satisfying to watch an ashmaker suffer this much, but after all he's learnt tonight, what Jet feels is a lot less like vindication and a lot more like sympathy.

    Summary

    After that fateful Agni Kai, Ozai makes a different call. Branded as a traitor and banished to a prison camp, Zuko learns how cruel the Fire Nation can be to its citizens. Three years, a water tribe raid, and an unexpected meeting with a gang of over-enthusiastic idealistic children puts Zuko back in the spotlight. The revolution is coming and it wants another poster boy, but Zuko is not willing to lend his face to the cause.
