    Summary

    "It's just two years, Sokka. Two years and I'm free."
    ---
    The ice has been Sokka's life for as long as he can remember. Learning to skate at his family's rink preceded learning to walk. The rink has been his safe place through everything; an ADHD diagnoses, an injury in his favorite sport, the death of his mom and his first girlfriend, and a myriad of mental health issues stemming from all of those things. If only he didn't have to share it with the stuck up rich kid that just moved into town. The rink needs the money Zuko's family brings in from renting it four days out of the week, but Sokka's not sure he can last dealing with the high demands of a professional figure skater.

    (Or: Zuko is a professional figure skater with expectations he can never live up to and Sokka is a college hockey player who really wishes the guy constantly getting on his nerves wasn't so gorgeous.)

    Summary

    Azula, his baby sister, the one person he’s never been able to save, who he loathes and wants dead and loves more than anything.

    (A desperate plea for her to join him even though he was already long gone. He’s a coward. He’s pathetic.
    He’s her brother.)

    ---
    Zuko is trapped in the caves with Sokka instead, and ends up joining the Gaang early. Azula goes home empty handed. Somehow, they still find their way back to each other.

    Summary

    It shouldn’t take your best friend going on a date for you to come to the realisation you might like them (or worse, coming to the realisation you might just be a little in love with them).

    But it does for Zuko — and that’s only because he’s a little more emotionally constipated than anyone else he knows.

    Summary

    He smiled because his face knew how.

    “I’m fine.”

    Far away, bruised and half-frozen on a Fire Nation ship, Zuko folded over with a sound he could not swallow.

    The words appeared over his heart.

    Not near it.

    Over it.

    I’m fine.

    They burned like lightning.

    Zuko pressed his palm to them and stared down, breathing hard.
