Summary
Zuko had never excelled at anything. Azula was a prodigy. Uncle always knew what to say. And Father... Father was strong, iron-like. But Zuko had only ever been good at surviving. Putting one foot in front of the other in a grim show of stubborn determination, gritting his teeth and bearing it. Survival was all he had ever been taught. He knew how to do it. So when he was kidnapped by the Southern Water Tribe, he expected to fight as he always had. He didn’t expect to be taught instead how to live.
In a warring land, the Water Tribe forgave the enemy in an act of defiance. For this, he was torn from them, and this time, his wounds won't heal so easily.
Forced back into nothing but survival, the last person Zuko expected to see was Hakoda's son. Hakoda was a promise of safety. The relentless blue of Sokka’s eyes was a promise of happiness. Zuko could have both if he just reached out his hands, but he found them clutching into fists. After all, he’d been burned one too many times.
But hey, at least between Hakoda and Sokka, Zuko could appreciate the family resemblance of pure, asinine stubbornness.

Bookmarker's Notes
I didn't know Avatar, so I had to research the characters to figure out who was who. At first it was confusing, but I got used to it. I haven't finished it yet, but I'll be adding it to my favorites because the story is simply incredible. The characters are well-developed, and there are so many more details involved. I've been reading for hours and I still don't get tired. It seems like the more you read, the more you want to read:) Seriously, read this masterpiece; you won't regret it.✨️🤌🏻

Summary
Aragorn’s hunt for Gollum was interrupted by what seemed at first but a village disturbance—a stray child in distress, or so it appeared.
Yet there could be no mistaking the points of her ears, nor the light that lingered in her gaze.
Long had the Eldar ceased bringing children into a fading world. Yet here she sat, perched on a common oak, her bare feet swinging, her copper hair alight.
How had she come to be? And why, when all wisdom said such joy had passed from the world?

Summary
“Do you like it?"
The simplest question to everything. A yes or no, asked over and over. Do you like Exy? Do you like yourself? Do you like the language that you should have learned in school in a country you were ripped from? Neil and Andrew, last December, bent over him on the couch asking him do you like us?
Kevin hums, a rising note of both confirmation and avoidance, different to how it was as a kid with that tilted accent.
*
alternatively; Kevin Day’s horrible no-good very bad attempt at learning Gaeilge in the fucking USA.

Summary
Soulmates are chosen by the spirits and can hear each other’s thoughts. Sokka thinks it’s cheesy and dumb. Zuko thinks it’s poetic justice that he doesn’t have one because he doesn’t deserve it. Cruel irony is finding out that the prince of the Fire Nation (and the person currently hunting you) is your soulmate.
(Set during and after the events of ATLA, and during some of the events of the comics that follow. This was an excuse to write a slow-burn where Sokka and Zuko are soulmates)

Summary
“I see.” Zuko closes the scroll. “Is the Water Tribe sending a replacement?”
“Uh yeah,” Sokka gestures to himself dramatically. “You’re looking at him.”
