There Must Have Been a Mistake, I’m Not Qualified for This by sarcasm_for_free

Summary
Ming may have a problem with the new Fire Lord, insofar as that he’s decidedly not General Iroh. This makes her sudden promotion from her old position as a lowly prison guard to the head of the royal guard a bit baffling and, frankly, uncomfortable.
An assassination attempt on Fire Lord Zuko cuts her pity party short.Bookmarked by tenderhooked

As The World Should Salvage by neuronary (orphan_account) for MuffinLance

Summary
Hakoda skimmed the letter, then blinked and read it closer.
– Fire Lord tragically passed away tragically a few days ago. Her Majesty, Fire Lord Azula is interested in renegotiating for Prince Zuko’s safe return, if he remains with you and your crew –
He caught a glance of Zuko’s scroll. It had two large words on it.
Dum-Dum.
---
Or, Azula is two years older than Zuko, Zuko is being held hostage on a water tribe ship, and Mai and Ty Lee are there for spice. (Insp. by MuffinLance's Salvage and As The World Should Be)

Summary
Zuko shot upright, gasping and bringing his hands up defensively. “No, please,” he begged, clearly still half-asleep. One hand came up to touch his… his scar, Sokka realized, with a sinking feeling. Zuko flinched when his fingers brushed burned skin.
*
Sometimes Zuko still has nightmares.

old habits die screaming by justanothermess

Summary
“But you just said honor is about doing what’s right. You must have known that wasn’t right,” Sokka presses.
There’s a long moment of silence. Then, “I knew it didn’t feel right. But I always told myself that if I knew the first thing about honor, I would still be home.”
“I don’t understand."
“I didn’t, either,” Zuko sighs.
~
Of course Sokka has seen the scar. It’s kind of hard to miss.
…It just hadn’t occurred to him that it meant anything.

Summary
Fire Prince Zuko is meditating with his eyes closed on the floor of the Western Air Temple, and no one is attacking him, or even trying to, and it’s weird. Sokka will admit that even if no one else will.
Or,
Sokka makes some discoveries after Zuko joins the Gaang. Perhaps the Fire Prince has more honor than anyone had realized.

Summary
Combustion Man never finds the Western Air Temple, and the Gaang goes ahead with the plan to capture Zuko and hold him prisoner so he can’t hurt anyone. Now Zuko has to convince them he’s on their side without having any proof he doesn’t want the Avatar dead anymore, and preferably before Katara decides to kill him.
… If only he weren’t so bad at being good.

Summary
“Maybe when this is all over,” said Aang, “Sokka and Katara’s dad can be your new dad, too."
Toph said, “I don’t think that’s how dads work, Twinkletoes.”
But despite himself, Zuko was smiling back at Aang. “Sure,” he said. “That might be nice.”
----
The Gaang finds out about Zuko's scar. It's not exactly shocking - at this point, they've made some assumptions already - but any dad who would hurt their child doesn't deserve to be a dad. Sokka decides to remedy this for Zuko.

Summary
The first time Zuko watched his father bend lightning, Ozai had come to himself with a familiar smile, the one Zuko went on to fear.
When Azula bent lightning for the first time, she returned to herself beaming, giggling at her hands in awe of what she had done.
Zuko comes to himself screaming.

Summary
Toph loves sitting in on Zuko’s diplomatic meetings. They’re usually at least a little interesting, and he’s absent-minded just enough to let slip a detail that sends the Earth Kingdom ambassadors reeling with alarm and confusion. Whenever there's some little detail to be recalled from the last year, Zuko has it covered.

Summary
At the end of 4x05, Patrice abducts River at gunpoint. This time, they go to a remote, isolated manor where Frank is waiting for them. The slow horses do not see or hear from River again for almost five months. During that time, Frank does his level best to break River and rebuild him into a tool he can use, with Patrice as his assisting shadow. This… doesn’t really work. In fact, the process ends up breaking not River, but someone else.
Meanwhile, Slough House is on overdrive trying to find a missing colleague who the Park is all to quick to deem presumed dead and rubber-stamp his file as such. Louisa almost quits, and finds an odd solace in working alongside Lamb to try to bring their missing agent home. She is having a bad one - the maybe-loss of her best friend is tearing her apart.
It all comes to a head when Louisa follows a lead that she knows better than to follow. She is meant to be the last blow that destroys River's resolve. It doesn't shake out like that. By the time they're both rescued, it's a long road to recovery. But there is a road, and there's help along the way.

Summary
The problem is River.
Or, more specifically, it’s the way that every time Louisa blinks, the afterimage of River laying on the ground between those shelves, covered in debris, is burned into the backs of her eyelids. It wouldn’t have been so bad, probably, if he hadn’t had to take off immediately to deal with that folder, or if Louisa had said fuck the debrief and gone with him. If they hadn’t been separated right after making it out of the hatch, they — or, at least, Louisa would probably be fine.
But they were. Separated.
--
Post season 3. Louisa and River share a bowl of dry cereal, a difficult conversation, and a bed, in that order.
