Summary
Azula, former Princess of the Fire Nation, left the Palace three years ago in order to build up an alliance and take her father down, once and for all. But the world is changing - the Avatar's arrival is both a blessing and a curse, and with him comes a risk she might not be willing to take. Meanwhile, in a Nation more fragmented than ever, Zuko will do everything to cut off his weakness and folllow Ozai's orders - but he doesn't know if he can kill Azula.
---
“It’s always a pleasure to watch destiny unfold."
Azula sighed, “Destiny will not win a war, Uncle. This is the result of all out hard work.”
“Ah, but just as we cannot control the skies and seas, sometimes we cannot control the path our lives take.”
“Tell me, Uncle. Do the tides control the ship, or do I?”
Uncle laughed, “Point made. Lead on, my niece, but be wary of incoming storms.”
For a moment, the world was still, and something tense settled on her shoulders. But she shook it off.
She had the Avatar, and soon she’d have the North.

Summary
The boy flew up the stairs, a flurry of black clothes against gray steel. His footfalls still fell like feathers on wood, he was glad he knew how to make his steps quiet. Otherwise his life would’ve been over right there, right then. The boy slid the door open, peeking no more than his eyes above, he looked around and quickly took note of the few unconscious men scattered around.
The boy scrambled into the tower, looking around in awe. He counted 3 unconscious men, one of said men possibly dead. Several bruises littered across each of them, one had a slice to his arm, another had his ankle at a weird angle, and the third had his arm twisted in such a way that it had begun to lose air. He tensed, screams could no longer be heard outside. In only moments the worst happened.

Summary
Since the end of Hundred Years War seven years ago, Fire Lord Zuko has been isolated in the Fire Palace, fending off assassinations and mending the Fire Nation and its burnt bridges, all while putting off the Fire Sages' demands that he take a wife. When Iroh finally finds him a match, he reluctantly agrees to the marriage, with the expectation of never speaking to her again and sending her off to Ember Island.
It proves to be more difficult than he expects though, when he realizes that his new wife is as stubborn as a dragon moose.

Summary
Les Nomades de l'Air ont tous disparu. Il ne reste plus qu'eux, les bâtards, les entre-deux ; les tristes souvenirs d'une période plus heureuse. Mais qu'importe cet héritage, cela n'empêchera pas Zuko d'être un guerrier. Il mourra au combat, en emportant avec lui le plus d'ennemis de la Nation du Feu possible.
N'est-ce pas là le plus grand des honneurs ?

Summary
"Are you..." Zuko rasps out and the man instantly snaps his mouth shut - finally stopping his hysteric rambling with it. He must be surprised that Zuko is coherent enough to say anything at all and he leans forward to fully capture the rest of Zuko's slurred words. "... trying to hit on me while I'm bleeding out on your carpet?"
The man gives him a bewildered look. "... I have hardwood floors. That's a towel."
___Or: Zuko tries to find ways to deal with his fucked up life - like knitting, smoking, being an asshole in general, moonlighting as a vigilante - you know, regular stuff - he just never accounted for meeting Sokka.

Summary
The boiling rock surely is a wonderful episode, and I thought it would be interesting to see it in these settings. Especially since suddenly there are two adult men with the Gaang and Zuko has the amount of issues that should be illegal. Fortunately he also has friends.
This is set in the “Collared” universe, I recommend reading the first part so there won’t be any confusion, but it’s not obligatory.Series
- Part 2 of Collared
