    Summary

    My main Jeeko verse, which mostly follows A:tLA canon but gives a shippy twist to the relationship between Zuko and Lieutenant Jee, the captain of the ship that Zuko is traveling on while banished. Consists of one main chaptered story plus outtakes, unpublished scenes, and AUs, presented in vaguely chronological order.

    Summary

    “Your dad,” Sokka starts, then swallows hard. “Your dad dueled you, burned half of your face off, and then banished you because you spoke when you shouldn’t have?”

    Guilt festers and bubbles like black tar in Zuko’s chest. “I didn’t just speak. I questioned and insulted one of his highest-ranking generals—but the man was planning a massacre! He shouldn’t have—” Zuko clamps his mouth shut, his teeth clicking together, and swallows thickly. “I mean. I found the tactic he proposed very startling, but it wasn’t my place to question such things. I’m sure he had his reasons.”

    “Tui and La what the absolute fuck,” Sokka whispers.

    [Zuko gets imprisoned with Sokka and Katara during the winter solstice, and some very unfortunate things come to light. Alternatively: the gaang kidnaps adopts Zuko in book one after discovering just how awful his father is.]
