Smoldering Flames Beneath by Meera_write
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender (Cartoon 2005)
26 May 2025
Tags
Summary
Zuko always thought no one remembered.
The meeting. The choice. The fire.
But when a former guard speaks up around the flames, the truth comes out — and Zuko learns that sometimes doing the right thing doesn’t disappear into ash.
Sometimes, it stays smoldering.
(or my take on the gaang learns about Zuko's scar)

Summary
Born into power, marked by pain, and burdened with expectations he never asked for.
Zuko's story told through the eyes of Fire Nation citizens. Because sometimes, the ones who burn the brightest are the ones who never asked to carry the flame.

Instincts to Guide in the Storm by Thisisentertaining
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender
11 Jan 2021
Tags
Summary
Zuko isn't sure what prompts him to start talking.
Maybe it's the possible impending doom.
Maybe it's the novelty of having someone to tell who might care.
Maybe it's just that kind of storm. The one that makes you want to curl up around a fire to tell stories, and he and Sokka aren't exempt from that even on a perilous ship.
Regardless of the reason, Zuko begins to tell the story that the Freedom Fighters never bothered to even ask about.

Summary
Part of the Instinctual Verse - Please read that first.
The last thing Zuko wants after years of being stuck in that cave is to see any more rocks. Unfortunately, he hadn't had luck since the day he's been born so here they were, staring at world's largest canyon.
Oh well, at least they're flying over it and he won't actually be surrounded by rock walls, right?
...right?

Summary
"Come on, you're gonna help me practice my bending." That was the last thing he had expected her to say. And it didn't even make sense. "But... I'm not a waterbender." Katara was not pleased by that comment. In fact, she looked rather peeved. "I know."
Or
Katara decides that Zuko should know not to double cross them. She comes up with the idea that she could practice with (on) Zuko. But then her training session doesn't end well.-

Summary
When the next letter arrived, Zuko let it sit on his desk for a whole day before opening it, as if somehow Sokka would sense, a continent away, that he was still pretty pissed about Sokka trying to rope Iroh into this whole festival visit insanity. Finally, his point proven to literally no one except himself, Zuko waited until after a long bending practice, then a full bath, before he casually picked up the letter and broke the seal.
**
OR:
Zuko has been Fire Lord for six years when Sokka starts trying to convince him to attend the Spring Gift festival at Wolf Cove, and Sokka isn’t taking no for an answer.

Summary
Yzako, blessed by a dying dragon whose spirit joined with hers the day she was born, has lived her entire life in chains. Molded into a weapon for the Fire Nation, she's known as The Golden Dragon, and when Fire Lord Ozai offers her a deal that will win her the freedom she craves, she has no choice but to accept. When she finally meets the banished prince she's been sent to assassinate, though, she realizes that she might not be able to kill him after all. (Zuko/OC, smutty romance with lots of plot and some canon typical angst)

Summary
Everyone has their soul family. The Gaang’s should have been whole — if only one hadn’t been dead for as long as the others could remember, and another hadn’t died prematurely in flames.
But some things are never truly lost.
Alternatively: the Gaang is a platonic soul family. It doesn’t change that much, until it does.

Elemental school or some shit by Firelord_Lee_Fromtheteashop

Summary
Fire, Earth, Water and Air.
The way they were sorted was stupid. Personality tests to access which house you'd fit in the most and then boom you share a common room with those people. He'd been put into Fire and everyone jokingly calls their common room and dorms the fire nation. Each dorm has a name and Zuko got Caldera.
The Earth kids were normally stubborn and into nature everyone called their area of the school the Earth kingdom. Some of the dorms were shared between the Fire and Earth kids people joked they were fire nation colonies.
The Water group was full of people who had big dreams and good grades but each year they were getting less and less. It was kinda sad really. Kids coming in each year were 11 years old meant to be happy and full of hope and all the other bullshit Zuko would've laughed at when he was 11.
The Air kids had the old towers of the school and everyone joked they looked like temples and so the Air kids had Air temples. Being sorted into the Air group was a nice way of calling them autistic. Lots of the kids had special nerdy interests but were the most bubbly and yet serious people Zuko has ever met.
