Summary
The stars look down upon me. They see my misfortune and misery, and they snicker in their warm shapes.
They write and write. Write until they can’t no more, until they run out of messages to send, until I am nothing left. Letter after letter is sent by them, marked in their own little wax and paper preference, but one thing stays the same; it always marks tragedies and woes.

Perhaps I was too naive to recognise my shortcomings. I am not one to be loved.

Summary

Summary
It's not that he forgot to tell them; Zuko simply thought everyone knew about how he got his scar. It's not something he likes to talk about, but he would have done it for them. He should have, given how they're reacting now.
The Gaang finds out about Zuko's scar, but not from the man himself.

Summary
The wanted poster had the scar on the wrong side.
Maybe he didn’t care enough to look at the poster before it got sent out. Or maybe, Ozai didn’t actually remember which side of his son’s face he had burned off all those years ago. Zuko wasn’t sure what was worse. Ozai had know which side the scar was on. He had to remember. Right?
----
In which Zuko isn't sure Ozai knows which side of his face he burnt off and it sends him spiraling.- Language:

Summary
Some people are born with soulmarks. Zuko has them, but his grandfather burned them off because they "make you weak."
Team Avatar has a few things to say about that.
