    Summary

    ("Sokka," Zuko begins before he can change his mind. "Do you ever wish you didn't have to wake up in the morning?"

    Sokka looks at him in a strange way, and Zuko immediately regrets opening his mouth. The feeling is annoyingly familiar. He's spent the past half of this year saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, even when he's trying his best. Not that the twenty odd years before this have been any better.

    "Like I wish I didn't have to wake up because I wish I was dead?" Sokka asks, not taking his eyes off of Zuko, who's feeling like he has ten seconds to explain what he means before Sokka springs Katara on him again for mental healing.)

    The royal palace is a lonely place for a Firelord. Left in the Fire Nation, Zuko keeps (almost) getting assassinated left and right while the rest of his friends are out rebuilding the world. He isolates himself, avoiding the people closest to him (which really only consist of Mai and uncle), and throws himself into his work as he copes with being in charge of a nation in shambles.

    When Sokka arrives to join the council as Ambassador, Zuko feels like things just might look up for him.

    After all, a friend on the council can never be bad, right?

    Summary

    Today was the day.

    There was nothing particularly special or different about the day he chose. Nothing had happened to make him say, yep, this is the day I’m gonna kill myself. He just woke up a couple days ago and decided he couldn’t take it anymore.

    Percy Weasley tries to kill himself. The fallout.

    Summary

    When Nesta realizes Feyre has not included her in any of their family paintings, the sting of her exclusion is sharper than she could have ever imagined.

    Desperate to relieve Feyre and her new family of the burden that she was, she did the only thing she could think of: run.

    An alternate take after ACOFAS, in which Feyre not painting Nesta gets addressed, the Inner Circle gets a little bit of a reality check, and everyone kind of learns to communicate.
